(a)
Other assets at November 30, 2019 included $20.6 million of contract assets for estimated future renewal commissions due to our adoption of ASC 606 effective December 1, 2018, as described in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
On July 9, 2019, the parent company of Stearns, our partner in KBHS, filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York, with Stearns included as a debtor in the case. KBHS was not included in the filing. On October 24, 2019, the court confirmed Stearns’ parent company’s plan of reorganization under which, among other things, one of its largest owners took full control of the reorganized company and invested significant new equity capital in the business. The confirmed plan of reorganization became effective on November 5, 2019. During the pendency of the bankruptcy proceedings, KBHS provided mortgage banking services to our homebuyers consistent with its pre-filing performance and there was no consolidated financial statement impact.
