Notes Receivable
In March 2023, the Company issued a note receivable to CCM in the amount of $11.3 million in connection with the acquisition of CCM, which closed in April 2023. The Company recognized a discount on the note receivable of approximately $1.3 million on the date the acquisition closed. The note bears interest at a variable rate tied to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus an applicable margin. Also, pursuant to the acquisition, CCM will be entitled to earn-out payments for four years based on certain performance criteria. The earn-out payments will be first allocated to repay the interest and principal due on the note receivable. The note receivable matures in April 2027. If an earn-out payment is not due to CCM, 50% of the interest payment may be "paid-in-kind", and thereby added to the principal balance.
