12.   DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On June 1, 2014, we separated our research and drug development businesses from our late-stage partnered respiratory assets. For further information on the Spin-Off, refer to Notes 1 and 11, "Description of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and "Spin-Off of Theravance Biopharma, Inc.". The significant components of the research and drug development operations, which are presented as discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, were as follows:

(In thousands)
Net revenues(1)	$	3,129
Loss from discontinued operations(2)		(94,934	)

(1)

Net revenues primarily consist of revenue from collaborative arrangements and product sales. Revenue from collaborative arrangements was recognized from our agreement with R-Pharm CJSC, which was transferred to Theravance Biopharma as a part of the Spin — Off. Product sales were generated from sales of VIBATIV in the U.S. through a limited number of distributors, and title and risk of loss transfer upon receipt by these distributors. Healthcare providers ordered VIBATIV through these distributors. Commencing in the first quarter of 2014, revenue on the sale of VIBATIV was recorded on a sell-through basis, once the distributors sold the product to healthcare providers. Product sales were recorded net of estimated government-mandated rebates and chargebacks, distribution fees, estimated product returns and other deductions.

Included in the loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 are external legal and accounting fees in connection with our separation strategy which we started to incur in the year ended December 31, 2013 and the additional stock-based compensation and cash bonus expense recognized due to the achievement of performance conditions under a special long-term retention and incentive equity and cash bonus awarded to certain employees in the year ended December 31, 2011, which we started to incur in the year ended December 31, 2014.

There was no impact of the discontinued operations after the Spin-Off to our revenues and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.
