3. Asset Sale to WBA

 

On September 18, 2017, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement with WBA and Buyer, which amended and restated in its entirety the previously disclosed Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Original APA"), dated as of June 28, 2017, by and among the Company, WBA and Buyer.  Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement, Buyer agreed to purchase from the Company 1,932 Acquired Stores, three  (3) distribution centers, related inventory and other specified assets and liabilities related thereto for a purchase price of $4,375,000, on a cash-free, debt-free basis in the Sale.

 

The Company announced on September 19, 2017 that the waiting period under the HSR Act, expired with respect to the Sale. The Company completed the store transfer process in March of 2018, which resulted in the transfer of all 1,932 stores and related assets to WBA, and the received of cash proceeds of $4,156,686.  

 

On September 13, 2018, the Company completed the sale of one of its distribution centers and related assets to WBA for proceeds of $61,251. The impact of the sale of the distribution center and related assets resulted in a pre-tax gain of $14,151, which has been included in the results of operations and cash flows of discontinued operations during the thirteen week period ended December 1, 2018. The transfer of the remaining two distribution centers and related assets remains subject to minimal customary closing conditions applicable only to the distribution centers being transferred at such distribution center closings, as specified in the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement.

 

The parties to the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement have each made customary representations and warranties. The Company has agreed to various covenants and agreements, including, among others, the Company’s agreement to conduct its business at the distribution centers being sold to WBA in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement and the distribution center closing. The Company has also agreed to provide transition services to Buyer for up to  three (3) years after the initial closing of the Sale. Under the terms of the TSA, the Company provides various services on behalf of WBA, including but not limited to the purchase and distribution of inventory and virtually all selling, general and administrative activities. In connection with these services, the Company purchases the related inventory and incurs cash payments for the selling, general and administrative activities, which, the Company bills on a cash neutral basis to WBA in accordance with terms as outlined in the TSA. Total billings for these items during the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended December 1, 2018 were $1,587,824 and $5,464,383, respectively, of which $327,869 is included in Accounts receivable, net. The Company charged WBA TSA fees of $17,900 and $64,848 during the thirteen and thirty- nine week periods ended December 1, 2018, respectively, which are reflected as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses. During the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended December 2, 2017, the amount charged to WBA for TSA fees was nominal.

 

Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company has the option to purchase pharmaceutical drugs through an affiliate of WBA under terms, including cost, that are substantially equivalent to Walgreen’s for a period of ten (10) years, subject to certain terms and conditions. The Company has until May of 2019 to exercise this option.  On December 19, 2018, the Company and McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK) (“McKesson”) entered into a binding letter of intent that will continue the Company’s pharmaceutical sourcing and distribution partnership for an additional ten (10) years.  Under the terms, McKesson will continue providing the Company with sourcing and direct-to-store delivery for brand and generic pharmaceutical products through March 2029.

 

Based on its magnitude and because the Company exited certain markets, the Sale represented a significant strategic shift that has a material effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Accordingly, the Company has applied discontinued operations treatment for the Sale as required by Accounting Standards Codification 210-05-Discontinued Operations (ASC 205-20). In accordance with ASC 205-20, the Company reclassified the Disposal Group to assets and liabilities held for sale on its consolidated balance sheets as of the periods ended December 1, 2018 and March 3, 2018, and reclassified the financial results of the Disposal Group in its consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods presented. The Company also revised its discussion and presentation of operating and financial results to be reflective of its continuing operations as required by ASC 205-20.

 

The carrying amount of the Assets to be Sold, which were included in the Retail Pharmacy segment, have been reclassified from their historical balance sheet presentation to current assets and liabilities held for sale as follows:

(a)

The Company had $76,124 of goodwill in its Retail Pharmacy segment resulting from the acquisition of Health Dialog and RediClinic, which is accounted for as Retail Pharmacy segment enterprise goodwill. The Company has allocated a portion of its Retail Pharmacy segment enterprise goodwill to the discontinued operation.

 

(b)

In connection with the Sale, the Company had estimated that the Sale would generate excess cash proceeds of approximately $4,027,400 which would be used to repay outstanding indebtedness. During the thirty-nine week period ended December 1, 2018, the Company has a use of cash  for financing purposes of $1,343,793 in its discontinued operations and, based on refinements to its calculations,  reduced its estimate of excess cash proceeds by approximately $24,500 and  reclassified that amount to assets held and used. Consequently, the Company has classified $0 and $549,549 of estimated cash proceeds to be used for debt repayment to liabilities held for sale as of December 1, 2018 and March 3, 2018, respectively. For the thirty-nine week period ended December 1, 2018, the Company repaid outstanding indebtedness of $1,343,793 with Sale proceeds.  For the fifty-two week period ended March 3, 2018, the Company repaid outstanding indebtedness of $3,135,000 with the proceeds from the Sale.
