On July 16, 2001, Comdisco, Inc. and 50 of its domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division (the “Bankruptcy court”) (consolidated case number 01-24795). Comdisco Holding Company, Inc., as the successor company to Comdisco, Inc., emerged from bankruptcy under the Plan that became effective on August 12, 2002. For financial reporting purposes only, however, the effective date for implementation of fresh-start reporting was July 31, 2002. | |
Comdisco Holding Company, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on August 8, 2002 for the purpose of selling, collecting or otherwise reducing to money in an orderly manner the remaining assets of the Company and all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Comdisco, Inc. The Company’s business purpose is limited to the orderly sale or collection of all its remaining assets. Pursuant to the Plan and restrictions contained in its Certificate, the Company is specifically prohibited from engaging in any business activities inconsistent with its limited business purpose. | |
Litigation Trust: In February 1998, pursuant to Comdisco, Inc.’s Shared Investment Plan (the “SIP”), 106 employees (the “SIP Participants”) took out full recourse, personal loans to purchase approximately six million shares of Comdisco, Inc.’s common stock. In connection therewith, Comdisco, Inc. executed a guaranty dated February 2, 1998 (the “Guaranty”) providing a guaranty of the loans in the event of default by the SIP Participants to the lenders under the SIP (the “SIP Lenders”). The Company and the SIP Lenders subsequently reached a settlement on the Guaranty that was approved by the Bankruptcy court on December 9, 2004. The Plan and the litigation trust agreement provided that, under certain circumstances, subrogation rights that the Company may have against the SIP Participants and their respective promissory notes be placed in a trust for the benefit of the C-4 creditors (the “Trust Assets”). Under the Plan, the Litigation Trust is solely responsible for collection of amounts due on the promissory notes of the sixty-nine SIP Participants who did not take advantage of the SIP Relief (as defined in the Plan). The Company has a limited indemnification obligation to the litigation trustee under the litigation trust agreement. | |
SIP Litigation: On February 4, 2005, the Litigation Trust commenced lawsuits both in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the “Federal SIP Lawsuits”) and in the Circuit Court of Cook County Illinois (the “State SIP Lawsuits”) to collect on the remaining SIP Participants’ promissory notes. | |
Federal SIP Lawsuits: The Litigation Trust filed and a federal district court judge entered summary judgments (and amended judgments) against all but one of the SIP Participants who were defendants in the federal cases (the “Federal SIP Defendants”) on their respective SIP promissory notes, and the Litigation Trust commenced collection actions against them. Additionally, the federal district court judge entered orders directing that certain CDRs and related proceeds held by the estate of Comdisco, Inc. and Computershare (f/k/a BNY Mellon) (holder of CDRs) on behalf of those Federal SIP Defendants be turned over to the Litigation Trust. Pursuant to such orders, the Company turned over CDRs and related proceeds and will continue to do so if additional orders are entered. | |
The Federal SIP Defendants filed appeals on those judgments. On October 18, 2010, the Seventh Circuit affirmed the rulings in favor of the Litigation Trust, but remanded certain fraud issues to the trial court. On November 1, 2010, the Federal SIP Defendants filed a petition for a hearing before the full appellate panel. On June 28, 2011, the Seventh Circuit ruled vacating the summary judgments and remanding the cases for further proceedings. | |
Following a series of motions, hearings and the completion of discovery, at a hearing on July 8, 2013, Judge Robert Gettleman set a trial date for September 23, 2013. The trial’s actual start date was September 24, 2013 and the witness testimony and evidentiary phase was substantially completed on October 10, 2013. On December 17, 2013 the judge amended the post-trial briefing schedule with January 24, 2014 as the date Joint Submission of Facts were to be filed, February 7, 2014 as the date for opening post-trial briefs, February 28, 2014 as the date for response briefs to be filed and April 16, 2014 as the date for Oral Arguments. On January 27, 2014, the Joint Summary of Trial Record and Testimony was filed. On February 25 and 26, 2014, post-trial briefs were filed. On March 26 and 27, 2014 responsive briefs were filed. The judge heard oral arguments on April 16, 2014 and took the matter under advisement and would alert the parties when he came to either a partial or complete decision. As of the date of this filing, no ruling has been received from the judge. | |
State SIP Lawsuits: The Litigation Trust filed summary judgments against all of the SIP Participants who are defendants in the state cases (the “State SIP Defendants”, and, together with the Federal SIP Defendants, the “SIP Defendants”). Three of the State SIP Defendants filed Cross Motions for Summary Judgment. A hearing in the Circuit Court of Cook County on all of the summary judgment motions in the state cases was held on May 12, 2010, and the judge granted the summary judgments in favor of the Litigation Trust and denied the various motions for summary judgment filed by the State SIP Defendants. | |
On January 25, 2013, Judge Tailor set: March 1, 2013 as the deadline for served and pending discovery; the expert discovery cut-off date as May 31, 2013; and, a trial date for August 5 through 23, 2013. On July 11, 2013, an agreed order was entered changing the trial date to August 12, 2013. | |
The remaining State SIP Defendants and the litigation trustee entered into an agreed Stipulation And Order (the “Stipulation”) which, among other things, stays the trials in the state cases pending the resolution and any appeal of the trial in the federal cases. On August 12, 2013, the Stipulation was approved by Judge Tailor. On July 29, 2014, the judge set the next status hearing for September 30, 2014. | |
Litigation Trust Reports: By early 2005, sixty-nine SIP Participant’s promissory notes were transferred to the Litigation Trust. As reported in various Status Reports of Comdisco Litigation Trustee, of the sixty-nine SIP Participants: forty-one have settled or otherwise resolved their obligation; twelve have filed personal bankruptcy; and, sixteen notes remain outstanding (five in the federal court and eleven in the state court). During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Litigation Trust did not reach any settlements, which leaves the total number of promissory notes settled or otherwise resolved by the Litigation Trust at forty-one. | |
For more details regarding the Litigation Trust and related proceedings, please refer to the Status Reports of Comdisco Litigation Trustee filed quarterly in the Bankruptcy court. Any proceeds collected by the Litigation Trust, net of expenses, will be considered Trust Assets and distributed in accordance with the Plan and the litigation trust agreement. | |

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The information furnished herein includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments except where indicated, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for these interim periods. | |
The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2014. | |
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 30, 2013 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on December 11, 2013. | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the related notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and may affect future results of operations and cash flows. We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of this filing. We do not believe there are any material subsequent events which would require further disclosure. | |
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption. | |

The Company’s estimate of the fair value of its private company investments (“Equity Investments”) was made in consultation with Windspeed Acquisition Fund GP, LLC (“Windspeed”), a professional management group, who manages the Company’s Equity Investments on an ongoing basis. Windspeed shares in the net receipts from the sale of the Company’s Equity Investments at a set percentage in certain designated portions of the portfolio of companies. The Windspeed February 2004 management agreement was extended on April 5, 2011 (with an effective date of February 21, 2011) until February 20, 2013 (the “Initial Extension”). The Windspeed management agreement was again extended effective February 21, 2013 through February 20, 2015 (the “Second Extension”). Prior to the Initial Extension, Windspeed received fixed and declining management fees. Under the terms of the Initial and Second Extensions, Windspeed is not, and will not, be paid any ongoing management fees. In lieu of such management fee payment, 100% of any proceeds from certain companies in the portfolio will go to Windspeed. Realized gains on the sale of Equity Investments continue to be reduced by sharing amounts under the management agreement. Additionally, Windspeed shares in the net receipts from the sale of certain of the Company’s Equity Investments at a set percentage. The Company has received approximately $71,042,000 in proceeds (prior to management fees and sharing) since the inception of the management agreement with Windspeed. Windspeed has received a combined $12,779,000 in management fees and sharing through June 30, 2014. Management fees are expensed when incurred and realized gains on the sale of Equity Investments are reduced by sharing amounts under the management agreement. | |
Realized gains or losses are recorded on the trade date based upon the difference between the proceeds and the cost basis determined using the specific identification method. Net realized gains are included in revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. | |
Marketable equity securities: | |
Changes in the valuation of available-for-sale securities are included as changes in the unrealized holding gains (losses) in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At June 30, 2014, the Company did not own shares in any public company. | |
In addition, the Company holds a limited number of securities in trust for a deferred compensation plan which are not available for distribution under the Plan. | |
The Company’s practice is to work in conjunction with Windspeed to sell its marketable equity securities within a reasonable period of time after the expiration of the lockup period, utilizing various timing strategies which seek to maximize the return to the Company. However, in the future, there is no assurance as to whether or not the Company either will be able to liquidate such positions held for any lockup period or realize any amount on such positions. | |
Equity investments in private companies: | |
The Company’s policy for assessing the carrying value of Equity Investments is, in consultation with Windspeed, to regularly review and estimate the fair value of such Equity Investments. | |
The Company identifies and records impairment losses on Equity Investments when market and customer specific events and circumstances indicate the carrying value might be impaired. All write-downs are considered permanent impairments for financial reporting purposes. | |

The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 - Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are measured using Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. However, the Company records the carrying value of its private equity investments at lower of cost or fair market value which is measured using Level 3 inputs. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Equity Investments consist primarily of preferred stock holdings in three private companies which are carried at the lower of cost or fair market value in the Company’s financial statements. The carrying value of Equity Investments is $697,000 and the fair market value measured using Level 3 inputs is $10,268,000, net of sharing. These Equity Investments are subject to significant volatility and are difficult to value. The fair value of the Company’s Equity Investments was determined in consultation with Windspeed based on the market approach, including, but not limited to, quoted trading levels for publicly-traded securities in similar industries and/or markets, industry and company multiples, industry acceptance in the market place, liquidity discounts due to lock ups, estimated revenue, and customer, product and market share growth by the respective companies in the portfolio. Substantially all of these factors are outside the control of the Company and are subject to significant volatility. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to realize the estimated fair market value. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2014, the total portfolio of three companies which has an estimated fair market value of $10,268,000 is subject to significant concentration risk, as follows: 99% of such value is in two individual companies, and approximately 94% of such value is in one individual company. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
