by the balance of Compass Credit Agreement outstanding at closing ($125.0 as of June 30, 2016) and is subject to other customary closing purchase price adjustments for title and environmental defects. The closing of the Compass Sale is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. HRG is a party to the Compass Sale Agreement for the purpose of satisfying HGI Energy’s post-closing obligations to the buyer. Upon the completion of the Compass Sale, HGI Energy’s existing notes, $100.0 notional aggregate amount held by the Company’s affiliates, will be canceled and replaced with $92.0 notional aggregate amount of new notes of HGI Energy and HGI Energy will be recapitalized with an equity contribution of $110.0 in assets or cash to satisfy its future obligations.
Given the inherent decline in the production potential of its existing asset base, Compass’ indebtedness and the continued declines in commodity prices, if the Compass Sale is not completed, Compass may also pursue a variety of strategies to generate cash flows and reduce its leverage, including pursuing dispositions, acquisitions, other strategic transactions and the issuance of debt and equity securities.
Asset Management Segment
The Asset Management segment represents the Company’s ownership of Salus Capital Partners, LLC (“Salus”), an asset based lender, and CorAmerica Capital, LLC (“CorAmerica”), a commercial real estate lender. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, the operations of Energy & Infrastructure Capital, LLC (“EIC”), a debt capital investment manager focused on direct lending to companies in the North America energy and infrastructure sectors, were wound down.

(2) Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and note disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Certain prior amounts have been reclassified or combined to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications and combinations had no effect on previously reported net loss attributable to controlling interest or accumulated deficit. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015, filed with the SEC on November 20, 2015 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent periods or the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2016.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on September 30 and the quarters end on the last calendar day of the months of December, March and June. The Company’s significant subsidiary, Spectrum Brands’ fiscal year ends September 30 and its interim fiscal quarters end every thirteenth Sunday, except for its first fiscal quarter which may end on the fourteenth Sunday following September 30. The Company does not adjust for the difference in fiscal periods between Spectrum Brands and itself, as such difference would be less than 93 days, pursuant to Regulation S-X Rule 3A-02.
At June 30, 2016, the noncontrolling interest component of total equity primarily represents the 42.2% share of Spectrum Brands and the 19.6% of FGL not owned by HRG.
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
The Company reports a business as held for sale when management has approved or received approval to sell the business and is committed to a formal plan, the business is available for immediate sale, the business is being actively marketed, the sale is anticipated to occur during the next twelve months and certain other specified criteria are met, in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”). A business classified as held for sale is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. If the carrying amount of the business exceeds its estimated fair value less cost to sell, a loss is recognized. Assets and liabilities related to a business classified as held for sale are segregated in the current and prior balance sheets in the period in which the business is classified as held for sale. Transactions between the businesses held for sale and businesses held for use that are expected to continue to exist after the disposal are not eliminated to appropriately reflect the continuing operations and balances held for sale. If a business is classified as held for sale after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, the business continues to be classified as held and used in those financial statements when issued or when available to be issued.
The Company reports the results of operations of a business as discontinued operations if a disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when the business is classified as held for sale,
