As a result of the Merger, there is a reduction in employee workspace needed in Chicago, which led to the decision to market for sale the headquarters location. The Company classified the associated land, building, and certain furniture and equipment of the headquarters location as held for sale, performed an impairment assessment, and ceased depreciation effective May 1, 2019, as the Company anticipates selling the property held for sale. As of March 31, 2020, the total value of the property classified as property held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet was $21.1 million. The impact of ceasing depreciation of the property held for sale did not result in a material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
