As at June 30, 2014, the Company's assets (consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million) exceeded its liabilities (consisting primarily of asset retirement obligations) by approximately $1.6 million.
Subsequently, on August 27, 2014, the Company closed a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Ormat Nevada Inc. ("Ormat"), whereby Ormat purchased the Company's Crump Geyser (50% interest) and North Valley geothermal projects. The agreement also gives Ormat an option, exercisable over a four year period, to purchase certain Company leases from the New Truckhaven geothermal project. The agreement will see the Company receiving up to $1.5 million in cash payments. The sum of $1.49 million was paid upon closing of the transaction, and a further $10,000 is payable if and when Ormat exercises the lease purchase option. As a result of this sale, AER's project carrying costs are reduced to zero, while well abandonment liabilities were reduced by $0.2 million.
