Item 7.01. | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On April 19, 2017, DGSE Companies, Inc. (“DGSE”) entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Elemetal, LLC (“Elemetal”) and Elemetal Recycling, LLC (“Recycling”) and together with Elemetal, (“Sellers”) to purchase and acquire Sellers interest in and to the tangible personal property assets, including inventory, located at 2101 W. Belt Line Road, Carrollton, Texas (the “Belt Line Location”) and certain equipment located at 10707 Composite Drive, Dallas, Texas, and the accounts receivables of Recycling arising from the conduct by Recycling of its business at the Belt Line Location.
In consideration for the assets, DGSE would pay Sellers $16,000,000 in cash along with paying the Sellers approximately $3,800,000 owed by DGSE to Elemetal, or any of its subsidiaries, as a result of bullion-related transactions. Thus, the cash purchase price along with paying the bullion-related obligation is expected to be approximately $19,800,000. DGSE would also accept an assignment from Sellers of their rights and obligations under their existing lease for the Belt Line Location and would assume the accounts payables and other liabilities of Recycling arising from the conduct of business at the Belt Line Location.
The letter of intent is non-binding and is subject to numerous conditions, including negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, approval of the Boards of the parties and approval of Elemetal’s members. No assurance can be made that DGSE will be able to negotiate a mutually satisfactory definitive agreement with Sellers or that the contemplated approval will be obtained.
