DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
A business is classified as held for sale when management having the authority to approve the action commits to a plan to sell or exit the business, the sale or exit is probable to occur during the next 12 months at a price or cost that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value and certain other criteria are met. A business classified as held for sale is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. When the carrying amount of the business exceeds its estimated fair value less cost to sell, a loss is recognized and updated each reporting period as appropriate.
The contract for Support.com’s largest customer was not renewed upon expiration on December 31, 2022. As a result of this material change in the business, management and the board of directors made the determination to consider various alternatives for Support.com, including the disposition of assets. At December 31, 2022, the Company classified the Support.com business as held for sale and discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of its strategic shift to strictly focus on its cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation operations.

In January 2023, Greenidge completed the sale of a portion of the assets of Support.com for net proceeds of approximately $2.6 million. In June 2023, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with third parties in order to sell certain remaining assets and liabilities, including the transfer of remaining customer contracts, for net proceeds of approximately $0.8 million. The Company has ended all Support.com operations as of December 31, 2023; therefore, the remaining assets and liabilities of Support.com have been presented as current at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The remaining assets and liabilities consist primarily of remaining prepaid expenses and refundable deposits, payables and accrued expenses associated with the closing of operations and foreign tax liabilities.
