Liquidity and Going Concern; Management’s Plans and Objectives
Current report
Following the Recapitalization Transactions, our primary business is owning approximately $700 million of federal, and various state and local NOLs and other tax loss carryforwards and a variety of intellectual property assets focused on the consumer sector, as well as a 95% interest in TPHGreenwich and acting as asset manager for the properties owned by TPHGreenwich. We have a limited amount of unrestricted cash and liquidity available for working capital and our cash needs are variable under different circumstances. If the Asset Management Agreement does not remain in place and the related fees are not increased significantly**,** the Company’s cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations and corporate expenses beyond the next few months, unless we are able to raise additional capital or enter into a strategic transaction, creating substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
