Yes, I did.

Sale-leasebacks are common and perfectly reasonable business strategies.

Generally speaking lease liabilities have a lower cost of capital than other types of debt, so making such a deal can help the company.

None of the decisions described in the post are either unusual or unreasonable from a management team trying to save a troubled company. They were just unsuccessful.
