12. Discontinued Operations
We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment is recorded if estimated future operating cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) plus estimated disposition proceeds (undiscounted) are less than the current book value of the property. Key factors that we use in this analysis include: projected rental rates, estimated holding periods, capital expenditures and property sales capitalization rates. Additionally, a property classified as held for sale is carried at the lower of carrying cost or estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell.
For the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, we recorded total provisions for impairment of $667,000 on two properties, one in the convenience store industry which was sold during the third quarter of 2012, and one in the automotive tire services industry which was classified as held for sale at September 30, 2012.
For the third quarter of 2011, we recorded a provision for impairment of $158,000 on one property, which was sold in 2011. For the first nine months of 2011, we recorded total provisions for impairment of $368,000 on four properties; one in the automotive service industry, one in the motor vehicle dealerships industry, one in the pet supplies and services industry, and one in the restaurants – casual dining industry, all of which were sold in 2011.
Operations from seven investment properties classified as held for sale at September 30, 2012, plus properties previously sold, are reported as discontinued operations. Their respective results of operations have been reclassified as income from discontinued operations on our consolidated statements of income for all periods presented. We do not depreciate properties that are classified as held for sale.
No debt was assumed by buyers of our investment properties, or repaid as a result of our investment property sales, and we do not allocate interest expense to discontinued operations related to real estate held for investment. We allocate interest expense related to borrowings specifically attributable to Crest. The interest expense amounts allocated to Crest are included in income from discontinued operations.
