Discontinued Operations

N. Discontinued Operations

On January 15, 2014, we sold our wholly owned subsidiary Transdyn to a global provider of electronic toll collection systems, headquartered in Vienna, Austria.  The purchase price from the sale of this subsidiary totaled $16.0 million, of which we received cash of $14.4 million.  The remaining $1.6 million was placed into an escrow account until April 2015, to be released subject to certain contingent obligations, and was recorded to other assets.  We received additional cash of $0.4 million after the final working capital adjustment was calculated in March 2014. We recorded a gain on this transaction of $8.6 million, net of tax, which has been included in income from discontinued operations in Fiscal 2014 in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  Transdyn’s results were previously reflected in the Process Control Systems business segment.

We reclassified the assets and liabilities of Transdyn as held for sale within the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and presented the results of these operations as income from discontinued operations, net of tax, for each of the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
