Sale of Subsidiary to J-Devices

3.    Sale of Subsidiary to J-Devices

On June 30, 2014, we sold 100% of the shares of our wholly-owned subsidiary engaged in semiconductor packaging and test operations in Japan to J-Devices Corporation ("J-Devices"), our equity-method joint venture in Japan, for ¥1.1 billion ($9.5 million). For additional information regarding our investment in J-Devices, we refer you to Note 12. We received ¥0.1 billion ($1.0 million) in cash from J-Devices at closing and will receive the remaining ¥1.0 billion ($8.5 million) by June 30, 2015. We recognized a net gain on the sale of $9.2 million in our consolidated financial statements in other (income) expense, net, which includes a gain of $12.6 million from the release of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments associated with the entity. J-Devices recognized a gain of $14.7 million on the transaction in its consolidated financial statements as the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the purchase price. The gain recognized by J-Devices increased our equity in earnings of J-Devices by $8.8 million. The combined net gain we recognized was $18.0 million.
