DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

8. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In connection with its on-going evaluation of each of its business units, the management of the Company recommended to the Board of Directors that based upon the substantial operational losses and declining revenues being incurred by the Company’s international operations, such operations should be discontinued. Accordingly, on August 16, 2012, the Board of Directors determined to discontinue the operations of its UK Subsidiary, 4Kids International, effective September 30, 2012.  Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement and the corresponding assets sold and due to their continued lack of profitability, effective June 30, 2012, the Company terminated the operations of 4Kids Ad Sales, 4Kids Productions, 4Kids Music and 4Kids Home Video. Additionally, effective September 30, 2010, the Company terminated the operations of TC Digital and TC Websites. The results of operations for the advertising media and broadcast segment, television and film production/distribution segment and the trading card and game distribution segment are reported as a discontinued operation and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified for all prior periods to report the assets, liabilities and operating results of this business (See Note 1).

The following are the summarized results of discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:
