3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

During September 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives for the business. In consultation with financial and legal advisors, a comprehensive strategic review process began immediately and evaluated a broad range of options to maximize shareholder value. As part of this review process, Assure’s board agreed to conduct an auction process for the sale of its clinical operations. As of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q, Assure is providing IONM services in limited markets, primarily Arizona and Montana.

​

On March 26, 2024, the Company closed the sale with MPOWER Health of certain assets of its IONM business for up to $4.5 million, of which $2.3 million was paid in cash at the initial closing and up to an additional $2.2 million to be paid in relation to a potential earnout payment tied to case volume from the acquired assets during the 12-month period following the initial closing. The asset sale includes most of the Company’s healthcare facility contracts and clinical equipment, and a majority of the Company’s clinical employees. The Company retained certain of its assets, including but not limited to, its accounts receivable, certain clinical employees, its employees in the revenue cycle management team and management and office personnel.

​

As a result of the corporate actions described above, the Company’s technical and professional services meet the criteria to be considered “held for sale”. Accordingly. the assets associated with these services are classified and reflected on our consolidated balance sheets as “held for sale” as of December 31, 2023, and their results of operations are classified as “discontinued operations” in the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Since the sale of clinical assets closed on March 26, 2024, the assets held for sale balance was zero.
