The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), passed in March 2020 and subsequently amended in 2021, allowed eligible employers to take credits on certain amounts of qualified wages if the Company experienced either a full or partial suspension of operations due to COVID related government orders. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company, with guidance from a third-party specialist, determined it was entitled to employee retention credit (“ERC”) claims of $10,140 for previous business interruptions related to COVID and filed for such claims with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). The ERC claims, which will be recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) when the Company receives the refunds of such claims from the IRS, were recorded as deferred income in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, with an offsetting receivable amount in Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company determined that one of its grower processor facilities located in Nevada with total carrying value of $1,647, met the criteria to be classified as assets held for sale, and therefore was reclassified from Property, plant and equipment, net to Assets held for sale, which is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The sale of the grower processor facility is expected to be completed within one year of the balance sheet date.
