The information set forth in Item 2.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On June 1, 2015, Patriot Holdings, LLC (“Patriot”) and a subsidiary of CHS Inc. (“CHS”) completed a merger that resulted in CHS acquiring 100% of the ownership interest in Patriot. REX American Resources Corporation (the “Company”) owned a 26.6% interest in Patriot.
The Company received a cash payment of approximately $45.5 million at the closing, representing its proportionate share of the merger proceeds. Assuming the full payment of escrow holdbacks, the Company would receive an additional amount of approximately $5.0 million within 18 months of the closing.
The total merger consideration was approximately $196 million in cash subject to certain adjustments relating to Patriot’s net working capital (targeted at $6.4 million) and cash and cash equivalents at the closing of the merger and certain escrow holdbacks and less the amounts of certain transaction expenses, outstanding indebtedness of Patriot and the estimated costs of completion of certain capital expenditure projects, if incomplete at closing.
