Disposal of Assets [Abstract]  
Disposal of Assets Note 9: Disposal of Assets

In May 2019, the Company finalized a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Charter DMN Holdings, LP (the “Purchaser”) for the sale of the real estate assets in downtown Dallas, Texas, previously used as the Company’s headquarters for a sale price of $28,000 and a pretax gain of $25,908. The sale price consisted of $4,597 cash received, after selling costs of approximately $1,000, and a two year seller-financed promissory note of $22,400 (the “Promissory Note”), included in current notes receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The sale provided the Company an additional $1,000 contingency payment if certain conditions were met. The contingency expired in June 2020, with no payment made by the Purchaser related to the contingency.

The Promissory Note is secured by a first lien deed of trust covering the property and bears interest payable in quarterly installments that began on July 1, 2019, continuing through its maturity on June 30, 2021, and includes a pre-payment feature. Interest will be accrued at 3.5 percent during the first year and at 4.5 percent during the second year.

As a direct result of COVID-19 uncertainties, on April 3, 2020, the Company and the Purchaser entered into an amendment to the Promissory Note deferring the Purchaser’s interest payment of $195 that was due April 1, 2020, and adding it to a second promissory note (the “Second Promissory Note”). In addition, the Second Promissory Note included a 2019 real property tax reconciliation payment due from the Purchaser under the Purchase and Sale Agreement in the amount of $180. The Second Promissory Note, in the principal amount of $375, was secured by a second lien deed of trust covering the property and was due June 30, 2021.


On June 29, 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a second amendment and extension of the maturity date of the Promissory Note to June 30, 2022 (the “Second Modification Agreement”), effective June 30, 2021. In connection with the Second Modification Agreement, the Purchaser paid the Second Promissory Note in full. The unpaid, original principal balance of the Promissory Note will continue to bear interest at the rate of 4.5 percent, with interest payable quarterly through June 30, 2022, the maturity date of the Promissory Note. The Promissory Note continues to be secured by a first priority lien on the property.

In the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $249 of interest income related to the promissory notes, included in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company evaluated the collectability of the note as a result of the Purchaser’s request to extend the maturity date of the Promissory Note and the continuation of the pandemic. Management believes as of March 31, 2022, the Promissory Note is recoverable since the Purchaser is in compliance with the terms, is publicly indicating its intent to develop the property, and management believes that the value of the collateral has not decreased from the sale date. In addition, on April 1, 2022, the Purchaser paid the first quarter 2022 interest payment of $249 due under the Second Modification Agreement.

The timing in general of commercial development may have been impacted by the pandemic, and thus capital constraints in commercial real estate markets may exist. Management continues to closely monitor the collectability of the Promissory Note and the value of the underlying collateral. Continued economic and other effects of the pandemic could impact the timing of payment or realization of the note.

Notes receivable are recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance, included in accounts receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company puts notes receivable on non-accrual status and provides an allowance against accrued interest if it is determined the likelihood of collecting substantially all of the note and accrued interest is not probable. Notes are written-off against the allowance when all possible means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was no allowance recorded for the notes receivable or accrued interest receivable.
