Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)

As previously disclosed, on December 31, 2016, Xerox completed the Separation of its BPO business through the Distribution of all of the issued and outstanding stock of Conduent to Xerox Corporation stockholders. As a result of the Separation and Distribution, the financial position and results of operations of the BPO Business are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented.

Separation costs are included in Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

	2017		2016		2017		2016
Separation costs	$	—	$	28	$	8	$	36

Separation costs are primarily for third-party investment banking, accounting, legal, consulting and other similar types of services related to the Separation transaction as well as costs associated with the operational separation of the two companies, such as those related to human resources, brand management, real estate and information management to the extent they were not capitalized. Separation costs also include the costs associated with bonuses and restricted stock grants awarded to employees for retention through the Separation.

(1) The three and six months ended June 30, 2016 include $6 and $7, respectively, of interest on the $1.0 billion Senior Unsecured Term Facility, which was required to be repaid upon completion of the Separation and therefore was reported in the Loss from discontinued operations.

Refer to Note 11 - Debt for additional information regarding the Separation Debt Activity.

In January 2017, as provided for in the Separation Agreement, we received a distribution from Conduent of $161 representing the final adjustment required to set Conduent's cash balance at $225 as of the Separation. This amount was recorded as a receivable from Conduent included in Other Current Assets at December 31, 2016. The cash receipt was reported in Cash Flows from Financing Activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as it represented an adjustment to our Distribution of Conduent.
