On September 30, 2014, the Company completed the tax free spin-off of its former Dealer Services business, which was a separate reportable segment, into an independent publicly traded company called CDK Global, Inc. ("CDK"). As a result of the spin-off, ADP stockholders of record on September 24, 2014 (the "record date") received one share of CDK common stock on September 30, 2014, par value $0.01 per share, for every three shares of ADP common stock held by them on the record date and cash for any fractional shares of CDK common stock. ADP distributed approximately 160.6 million shares of CDK common stock in the distribution. The spin-off was made without the payment of any consideration or the exchange of any shares by ADP stockholders.

The Company recorded a decrease to retained earnings of $1.5 billion for the reduction in net assets of CDK related to the spin-off, offset by an increase to retained earnings of $825.0 million related to the cash dividend received from CDK as part of the spin-off. The spin-off, transitional, and on-going relationships between ADP and CDK are governed by the Separation and Distribution Agreement entered into between ADP and CDK and certain other ancillary agreements.

Incremental costs associated with the spin-off of $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and $47.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 are included in discontinued operations on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings.

On February 28, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its Occupational Health and Safety services business ("OHS") for a pre-tax gain of $15.6 million, less costs to sell, and recorded such gain within earnings from discontinued operations on the Statements of Consolidated Earnings in the three months ended March 31, 2014. OHS was previously reported in the Employer Services segment.

In conjunction with the spin-off of CDK and the sale of OHS, the Company has classified the operating results of these businesses as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Results for these businesses were as follows:
