NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On February 29, 2024, the Company and Everest/Sapphire Acquisition, LLC, its wholly-owned subsidiary, completed the sale to Bullseye Acquisitions, LLC, an affiliate of JDH Capital Company, of all of the equity associated with the Company’s Precision Sport segment, which is comprised of the Company’s subsidiaries Sierra and Barnes Bullets – Mona, LLC (“Barnes”), pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of December 29, 2023, by and among, Bullseye Acquisitions, LLC, Everest/Sapphire Acquisition, LLC and the Company (the “Precision Sport Purchase Agreement”). The Precision Sport segment is engaged in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing, and marketing bullets and ammunition to the military, law enforcement, and commercial/consumer markets. Under the terms of the Precision Sport Purchase Agreement, the Buyer agreed to pay $175,000 in cash, which is subject to a customary working capital adjustment. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $37,871 in cash, after payment of certain fees and settlement of the Restated Credit Agreement, for all of the equity associated with the Company’s Precision Sport segment.
