Sale of South Carolina Facility
As described in Note 1 and Note 3, on November 9, 2023, the Company closed the sale of the South Carolina Facility to complete the deleveraging transaction with NYDIG. In exchange for the sale to NYDIG of the upgraded 44 MW South Carolina mining facilities and the subdivided real estate of approximately 22 acres of land, the Company received total consideration of $28 million, as follows:
The Senior Secured Loan with NYDIG with remaining principal of $17.7 million was extinguished;
The B. Riley Commercial Secured Promissory Note with remaining principal of $4.1 million, which NYDIG purchased from B. Riley Commercial on July 20, 2023 at par was extinguished;
A cash payment of approximately $4.5 million, and
The Company also received bonus payments earned of approximately $1.6 million as a result of the completion of the expansion of the upgraded mining facility and the facility's uptime performance.
The Company recognized a gain on the sale of the South Carolina Facility of $8.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Following the completion of the South Carolina Facility sale, the Company continued to own approximately 152 acres of land in South Carolina, which was classified as Held for Sale as of December 31, 2024. On November 27, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining 152-acres to Data Journey LLC ("Data Journey") for $12.1 million in cash and an 8% profit participation in the property's planned data center. We expect the sale to close in 2025.
Impairment
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, based on prevailing market conditions, from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset is written down to fair value.
During 2024, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $0.2 million of property and equipment, net. The impairment was related to miners no longer viable for operation.
In 2023, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the remaining real estate assets in South Carolina, which included the land and the original building which was classified as construction in process as it was not used in cryptocurrency mining. The impairment assessment was performed using a market approach. An impairment charge of $4.0 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was the remaining value of the building which was determined to no longer be recoverable.
