Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]  
Assets Held for Sale
4. Divestitures
In November 2017, we signed a definitive agreement with Shanghai Pharmaceuticals Holding Co., Ltd. to sell our pharmaceutical and medical products distribution business in China ("China distribution business") for gross proceeds of $1.2 billion. The transaction closed on February 1, 2018 for net proceeds of $861 million after adjusting for third party indebtedness and preliminary transaction adjustments. The net proceeds are not reflective of tax obligations due in connection with the sale, for which we have recorded a liability of $57 million. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on working capital requirements as set forth in the definitive agreement, which would impact the loss related to this divestiture.
We determined that the sale of the China distribution business does not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. The China distribution business primarily operated within our Pharmaceutical segment, and a smaller portion operated within our Medical segment.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized a net loss of $60 million related to this divestiture. This loss is comprised of the $67 million disposal group write-down recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2017, offset by a $7 million gain recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018 resulting from fluctuations in working capital, debt and foreign currency from December 31, 2017 to the date of close.
