3.         In January of 2013, the Company sold the intellectual property and certain tangible assets of Blockdot for a nominal amount; the Company retained Blockdot’s working capital and certain operating leases in Dallas, Texas. In 2012, the Company recorded a $2.5 million loss related to the anticipated sale of Blockdot; the Company recorded an additional loss of $30 thousand related to the sale in the first quarter of 2013. In the third quarter of 2012, the Company sold all of its newspapers and associated websites (with the exception of the Tampa group) to World Media Enterprises, Inc. (World Media), a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company completed the sale of its Tampa print properties and associated websites to Tampa Media Group, Inc., a new company formed by Revolution Capital Group. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company also sold DealTaker for a nominal amount, shut down its Production Services company which provided broadcast equipment and design services and discontinued its NetInformer operations. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has substantially completed its transition service obligations to World Media and Tampa Media.

As illustrated in the following chart, the results of these newspapers (as well as their associated websites), DealTaker, Blockdot, NetInformer and the Company’s Production Services unit have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and June 24, 2012. Depreciation and amortization on assets related to these properties ceased as of the date in 2012 that each disposal group qualified for held-for-sale treatment. The accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet for 2012 presents assets and liabilities of discontinued operations separately from those of continuing operations. After recording a $2.5 million loss related to the expected divestiture of Blockdot, assets of discontinued operations as of December 31, 2012, were $670 thousand. Liabilities of discontinued operations of approximately $467 thousand at December 31, 2012, consisted primarily of accounts payable and accrued expenses.

The Company owned and operated Blockdot for part of January 2013; revenues and expenses related to this period are reflected above. When the Company sold Blockdot, it retained certain operating leases for space that the Company will no longer utilize. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a $543 thousand favorable adjustment upon entering into a sublease for its Dallas office space for the remaining term of the lease. The Company recorded a net loss of approximately $100 thousand related to the operating leases during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

The Company performed an interim impairment test on DealTaker as of the end of the first quarter 2012, which resulted in a non-cash goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charge of $6.5 million net of a tax benefit of $3.6 million included in the loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 24, 2012.
