Sale of TeamStaff Rx

 

Based on an analysis of historical and forecasted results and the Company’s strategic initiative to focus on core business, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company approved and committed to a formal plan to divest the operations of TeamStaff Rx, our wholly-owned subsidiary, based at its Clearwater, Florida location. In evaluating the facets of TeamStaff Rx’s operations, management concluded that this business component meets the definition of a discontinued operation. Accordingly, the results of operations, cash flows and related assets and liabilities of TeamStaff Rx for all periods presented have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from those of our continuing business.

 

Effective December 28, 2009, TeamStaff and TeamStaff Rx entered into a definitive Asset Purchase Agreement with Advantage RN, providing for the sale of substantially all of the operating assets of TeamStaff Rx related to TeamStaff Rx’s business of providing travel nurse and allied healthcare professionals for temporary assignments to Advantage RN. The closing of this transaction occurred on January 4, 2010. The Asset Purchase Agreement provided that the purchased assets were acquired by Advantage RN for a purchase price of up to $425,000, of which: (i) $350,000 in cash was paid at the closing, and (ii) $75,000 was subject to an escrowed holdback as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement. On March 25, 2010, the Company and Advantage RN completed the analysis related to escrow release conditions and reached an agreement as to the final purchase price. Of the $75,000 held in escrow, $25,000 was returned to the Company and $50,000 was released to Advantage RN, resulting in a final purchase price of $375,000. Additionally, Advantage RN was obligated to make rent subsidy payments to TeamStaff Rx totaling $125,000, consisting of: (i) $25,000 paid at closing, and (ii) an additional $100,000 payable in 10 equal monthly installments beginning on March 1, 2010. The last rent payment received from Advantage RN was in July 2010. They have since vacated the premises and ceased making installment payments. The Company is pursuing a claim against Advantage RN for all amounts owed. The Company has provided an allowance for their estimate of uncollectible sub-lease funding of $50,000. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Advantage RN did not assume any debts, obligations or liabilities of TeamStaff Rx nor did it purchase any accounts receivable outstanding as of the closing date.
