Effective September 19, 2014, as a result of the Eldorado Merger, the Company’s previous Eldorado Interest was converted into 4,040,440 shares of ERI common stock, $0.00001 par value, including post-closing adjustments (Note 10), representing approximately 8.6% of such shares then outstanding. Upon conversion, the fair market value of the ERI shares, based on current trading activity, was less than the carrying value of the Eldorado Interest prior to the Eldorado Merger, resulting in a write down of such value and a charge to other comprehensive loss for an unrealized holding loss of approximately $6.5 million. Commencing September 19, 2014 through November 30, 2014, additional adjustments to carrying value of the ERI shares based on trading activity resulted in an unrealized holding loss of $0.8 million. Through the date of this filing, the estimated fair value of this the ERI common shares based on trading activity has not changed materially from the carrying value as of November 30, 2014
The original cost of the Company’s investment in Eldorado in 2007 (prior to subsequent impairment charges and equity in the earnings (losses) of the investee through September 18, 2014) was approximately $38 million.
