Note 2. Divestiture

On April 4, 2022, Synopsys, Inc ("Synopsys") purchased Juniper's silicon photonics business and formed a new entity called OpenLight Photonics, Inc. ("OpenLight"). The Company received cash consideration of $90.0 million and retained a 25% equity interest in the new entity. The agreements with Synopsys contain redemption options with respect to Juniper's equity interest in OpenLight, which are exercisable either by (i) Juniper on or after the third anniversary of the acquisition or sooner in certain circumstances, or (ii) Synopsys on or after the third anniversary of the acquisition. Juniper can exercise its put option at the greater of fair value at the time of redemption or $30.0 million, and the option was assigned a value of $10.8 million. The divestiture did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore, did not qualify as a discontinued operation.

The Company recognized a gain on divestiture of $45.8 million and the portion of gain related to the remeasurement of retained investment was $19.5 million. The following table presents the carrying value of the major components of assets and liabilities derecognized as of April 4, 2022 (in millions):


	As of
	April 4, 2022
Assets:
Total current assets	$	1.0
Property and equipment, net	3.6
Deferred tax assets	3.9
Other long-term assets	1.1
Purchased intangible assets, net	49.0
Goodwill	28.9
Total assets held for sale	$	87.5
Liabilities:
Accounts payable	$	1.4
Other liabilities	1.1
Total liabilities held for sale	$	2.5

The Company's 25% equity interest in OpenLight is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The investment was recognized at fair value in other long-term assets within the consolidated balance sheet at an aggregate amount of $40.8 million. The fair value was determined based on the price paid by Synopsys for its 75% equity interest in OpenLight along with the value of the redemption options.
