Accordingly, the $3,623 carrying value of the real property at that location is classified as retail real estate held for sale in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 28, 2022. The sale closed on June 24, 2022, and we expect to vacate the premises by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022. This store will be relocated to a new leased store in the Houston market that we expect to open during the second quarter of fiscal 2023. This sale, together with our recent purchase of real property in Tampa, Florida for $7,668 in cash during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 will be treated as an exchange of like-kind property under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for the purpose of deferring the majority of the taxable gain of approximately $4,800 arising from the sale of the Houston property. A VIE was established during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 for purposes of acquiring the Tampa, Florida property, of which the Company is the primary beneficiary by virtue of our control over the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. We plan to remodel the Tampa property and open as a Company-owned store in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. |
