Long-lived Assets Impairment Considerations The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If indicators of impairment are present, we perform an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to be derived from the related long-lived assets. Our assessment is made at the asset group level, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other groups of assets. The asset groups established by the Company are defined by vessel size and major characteristic or trade. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred related to the sale of a vessel, as the carrying value exceeded its fair value. On January 18, 2023, the Company signed a memorandum of agreement to sell the m/v Bulk Newport for $8.9 million in net consideration after brokerage commissions. As a result, we recorded a loss on sale of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2023. The Company performed an impairment analysis on each asset group and concluded the estimated undiscounted future cash flows were higher than their carrying amounts and as such, no additional loss on impairment was recognized. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred related to the sale of a vessel, as the carrying value exceeded its fair value. On April 20, 2022, the Company signed a memorandum of agreement to sell the m/v Bulk Pangaea for $8.6 million in net consideration after brokerage commissions. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2022. The Company performed an impairment analysis on each asset group and concluded the estimated undiscounted future cash flows were higher than their carrying amounts and as such, no additional loss on impairment was recognized. |
