4.3. Disposals

4.3.1 Specialty’s

Specialty’s was a Café & Bakery business based in California, Washington and Illinois. The COVID-19 pandemic started to expand across the United States in the last weeks of March 2020, which triggered an economic crisis. In the context of this uncertainty and adverse environment, Specialty’s had financial and economic setbacks with significant impacts in sales, as well as its profitability due to the government’s contingency plans for the disease which included mobility restrictions. Therefore, on May 15, 2020, the Company announced its decision to close Specialty’s operations. Such a decision was approved by the Company’s board on the date previously specified. Consequently, on May 26, 2020, the Company’s board approved the filing for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, which was filed on May 27, 2020. As a result of filing under Chapter 7, the Company lost control over this subsidiary and consequently it was deconsolidated. The case is being handled in the California Northern Bankruptcy Court.

In connection with Specialty’s closing, the Company recorded an impairment charge of Ps. 2,021.
