Note 8.                        Deconsolidation

 

On September 30, 2016, the Company sold the assets and the stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, Accident Insurance Services, Inc. (“AIS”), to unrelated parties for an aggregate $9,000,000 of cash. Upon the sale, AIS was deconsolidated from the Company’s financial statements. The Company recognized a loss of $614,000 on the transaction, pre-tax, which is included in Other Income on the Consolidated Statement of Income. The loss was measured as the difference between the fair value of the consideration received and: (i) the carrying amount of the former subsidiary’s assets and liabilities, including certain intangible assets (see Note 9); (ii) the write off of associated goodwill (see Note 9), and (iii) other expenses directly attributable to the transaction. There will be no further involvement with AIS other than with respect to the run-out of the business it produced for our insurance companies.
