Reduced debt

Recent transactions reduced debt to approximately $1.2 million

Approximately half of current debt is associated with properties owned through EDI Real Estate subsidiary

Recent transactions

Recent transactions involving the home services subsidiary and Mt Melrose subsidiary have significantly reduced debt and company risk

Company now completely focused on asset management operations

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 8

RECENT TRANSACTIONS

 

Enterprise Diversified recently completed two transactions to significantly reduce risks to the company.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 10

 

 

 

 

SALE OF HOME SERVICES SUBSIDIARY

Enterprise Diversified sold its former home services subsidiary on May 24, 2019 in exchange for a royalty stream over the next five years.

Enterprise Diversified had launched a home services subsidiary on June 14, 2016, by providing $2 million to an operating partner in Phoenix, Arizona. The relationship with the local operating partner was terminated in early 2018. Results were poor since inception and the decision was made to exit the business in 2019.

Transaction description:

As part of the sale, Enterprise Diversified will receive 7.5% of revenue generated by our customers in the first year and 5% of revenue for each of the next four years

The subsidiary generated total cumulative operating losses of $486,770 since launch through March 31, 2019

Future earnings from royalty stream cannot currently be estimated

Lessons learned:

Open-ended structure of the original transaction significantly increased risks to the corporate entity

Decentralized management approach was a poor fit for the size of the company

Skillset of the local operating partner did not translate into effective management of the subsidiary

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 11

 

 

 

 

SALE OF MAJORITY STAKE IN MT MELROSE

Enterprise Diversified sold 65% of its Mt Melrose subsidiary to a third party on June 27, 2019. We plan to deconsolidate the Mt Melrose financial results as of June 30, 2019.

Enterprise Diversified had launched the Mt Melrose real estate subsidiary on January 10, 2018 with our former chairman as the operating partner. Results were poor since inception with debt and debt service increasing dramatically in the nine months after launching the subsidiary.

The unsustainability of this debt and Enterprise Diversified’s unwillingness to continue to financially support the debt payments associated with the property portfolio led to the recent transaction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 12

 

 

 

 

SALE OF MAJORITY STAKE IN MT MELROSE (Cont.)

Transaction description:

Enterprise Diversified retains a 35% ownership stake and plans to deconsolidate financial results as of June 30, 2019

Third-party buyer provided $100,000 in cash and will assume all operating responsibilities

Enterprise Diversified overall reported debt as of March 31, 2019, is expected to decrease from $8.1 million to $1.2 million

Overall real estate monthly debt service is expected to decrease from approximately $58,700 to approximately $6,400

Public financial reporting results are being determined and will be provided in the company’s quarterly report as of June 30, 2019

The company’s other real estate subsidiary, EDI Real Estate, continues to be in operation with $644,623 in assets reported at their historical cost basis, approximately $520,000 in notes payable, and approximately $17,500 in quarterly revenue as of March 31, 2019

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 13

 

 

 

 

SALE OF MAJORITY STAKE IN MT MELROSE (Cont.)

Conditions prior to sale:

The subsidiary generated total cumulative operating losses of $2,210,009 since launch through March 31, 2019

The subsidiary required $964, 743 in write-downs since inception through March 31, 2019. Additional write-downs are being determined and will be reported in the company’s quarterly report as of June 30, 2019

Prior to the transaction, Enterprise Diversified made substantial progress right-sizing the portfolio in the second quarter of 2019. Results from those decisions will be reported in the company’s quarterly report as of June 30, 2019

Significant debt principal payments at the subsidiary level were coming due in the next year that the company’s corporate entity was unwilling to pay

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 14

 

 

 

 

SALE OF MAJORITY STAKE IN MT MELROSE (Cont.)

Lessons learned:

Open-ended structure of the original transaction significantly increased risks to the corporate entity

Decentralized management approach was a poor fit and public company requirements were too demanding on the local operator

The local operator took on a significant amount of high interest debt, including payment-in-kind debt, on properties that were not generating cash flow

The local operator changed his management strategy after the transaction, dramatically increasing overhead and bringing previously outsourced operations in-house at significant expense and with poor oversight

Return potential was significantly lower than originally anticipated
