U.S. Corrections & Detention

On April 19, 2012, the Company announced its discontinuation of its managed-only contract with the State of Mississippi Department of Corrections ("MDOC") for the 1,500-bed East Mississippi Correctional Facility (“East Mississippi”) effective July 19, 2012. In connection with the discontinuation of East Mississippi, the Company has also discontinued all other management contracts with the MDOC, including its managed-only contracts for the 1,000-bed Marshall County Correctional Facility effective August 13, 2012, and the 1,450-bed Walnut Grove Youth Correctional Facility effective July 1, 2012.

The loss of all management contracts with MDOC resulted in a loss in the overall customer relationship with MDOC as no future significant cash flows will be generated and the Company will have no continuing involvement with MDOC. As such, the results are classified in discontinued operations in accordance with our critical accounting policy on discontinued operations.

Loss from discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2013 represents a charge of $2.3 million of insurance liability claims which are directly related to MDOC. There were no revenues related to the discontinued operations of MDOC for the years ended 2015, 2014 or 2013.

All losses from the above noted discontinued operations included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is attributable to GEO.
