DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On July 7, 2014, we completed the divestiture of our homebuilding and real estate development business, pursuant to which WRECO became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TRI Pointe Homes, Inc. (TRI Pointe). At that time we distributed shares of WRECO to our shareholders in exchange for 59 million shares of our common stock and received net cash proceeds of $707 million. This transaction is referred to as the “Real Estate Divestiture”. Prior to the distribution of WRECO shares to our shareholders, WRECO was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Weyerhaeuser. Concurrent with the distribution to shareholders, WRECO ceased being a subsidiary. Discontinued operations relates to WRECO which was previously reported under the Real Estate segment and Unallocated Items.
