Disposal Groups and Divestitures

Disposal group held for sale — In December 2017, we entered into an agreement to divest our Brazil suspension components business (the disposal group) for no consideration to an unaffiliated company. The results of operations of the Brazil suspension components business are reported within our Commercial Vehicle operating segment. To effectuate the sale, Dana was obligated to contribute $10 of additional cash to the business prior to closing. We classified the disposal group as held for sale at December 31, 2017, recognizing a $27 loss to adjust the carrying value of the net assets to fair value and to recognize the liability for the additional cash required to be contributed to the business prior to closing. During the first quarter of 2018, we made the required cash contribution to the disposal group. At present, we have not completed the sale. In the event that we are unable to complete a transaction with the counterparty to the existing sale agreement, we intend to pursue a sale of the business to other interested parties. The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities of our Brazil suspension components business are as follows:

Divestiture of Dana Companies On December 30, 2016, we completed the divestiture of Dana Companies, LLC (DCLLC), a consolidated wholly-owned limited liability company that was established as part of our reorganization in 2008 to hold and manage personal injury asbestos claims retained by the reorganized Dana Corporation which was merged into DCLLC. DCLLC had net assets of $165 at the time of sale including cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and rights to insurance coverage in place to satisfy a significant portion of its liabilities. We received cash proceeds of $88$29 net of cash divested – with $3 retained by the purchaser subject to the satisfaction of certain future conditions. We recognized a pre-tax loss of $77 in 2016 upon completion of the transaction. During the second quarter of 2017 the conditions associated with the retained purchase price were satisfied. Dana received the remaining proceeds and recognized $3 of income in other expense, net. Following completion of the sale, Dana has no obligation with respect to current or future asbestos claims.
