Divestiture of SYA The Company early adopted ASU 2014-08 during the second quarter of 2014. On July 29, 2014, the Company completed the sale of our wholly-owned subsidiary, SYA. As a result of the early adoption of ASU 2014-08, the divestiture of SYA is reported in continuing operations for all periods presented. The purchaser of SYA paid approximately $1,300,000 for 100% of the capital stock and $60,000 for estimated excess working capital which is subject to adjustment within 90 days of the closing date, in cash, to the Company at the closing, with $50,000 of such consideration placed in escrow for a period of one year to cover any claims by the purchaser for indemnification for certain limited types of losses incurred by the purchaser following the closing. The proceeds received were used to pay down our revolver and used for working capital. SYA was a professional engineering and environmental consulting services company and was in the Company’s Services Segment. As of September 30, 2014, expenses related to the sale of SYA totaled approximately $92,000. The Company recorded a loss on the sale of SYA of approximately $48,000 (net of taxes of $0), which included an additional estimated excess working capital of approximately $42,000.
