DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

NOTE 3 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Noncurrent liabilities from discontinued operations is an uncertain tax liability related to the country of Venezuela. Expenses incurred for in-country obligations are reported as discontinued operations within our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. 

The activity for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to the remeasurement of uncertain tax liabilities as a result of the devaluation of the Venezuela Bolivar.  Early in 2018, the Venezuelan government announced that it changed the existing dual-rate foreign currency exchange system by eliminating its heavily subsidized foreign exchange rate, which was 10 Bolivars per United States dollar, and relaunched an exchange system known as DICOM. The Venezuela government also established a new currency called the “Sovereign Bolivar,” which was determined by the elimination of five zeros from the old currency. The DICOM floating rate was approximately 1,987,185 Bolivars per United States dollar at March 31, 2021, compared to 436,677 and 80,946 Bolivars per United States dollar at September 30, 2020, and March 31, 2020, respectively. The DICOM floating rate might not reflect the barter market exchange rates.
