LINCOLN EDUCATIONAL SERVICES COMPLETES REAL ESTATE SALE OF
DENVER AND GRAND PRAIRIE PROPERTIES SIGNIFICANTLY STRENGTHENING ITS BALANCE SHEET
Parsippany,
NJ - November 2, 2021 -
Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ: LINC), marking 75 years in 2021 as a national leader in specialized technical training, has completed the sale- and lease-back transactions of its Denver, CO and Grand Prairie, TX properties, for an aggregate sale price of $46.5 million.
Simultaneously, Lincoln entered into a 20-year triple-net lease agreement for each property, with renewal options. In connection with the sale, Lincoln anticipates recording a gain on sale of approximately $22 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The transactions were initially announced in late September.
At closing, part of the proceeds were used to pay off Lincoln's outstanding term loan obligation of $16.8 million and to pay closing costs of approximately $1.2 million, resulting in net proceeds of $28.5 million available to fund growth initiatives, upgrade existing facilities, as well as other working capital needs.
All campus operations at the Colorado and Texas campuses, including all training programs, will continue without interruption and will not be affected by these transactions.
