Discontinued Operations

Note 17 Discontinued Operations

Sale of Navis, LLC - On March 18, 2011, we sold our Navis marine terminal solutions business and the related WhereNet marine terminal solutions product line of our Zebra Enterprise Solutions (“ZES”) business segment for approximately $188,588,000 in cash to Cargotec Corporation. During the first quarter of 2012, we received $13,790,000 of the previously escrowed funds and at June 30, 2012, Zebra has a remaining short term receivable from the buyer in the amount of $13,790,000 which represents the remaining funds held in escrow that are subject to adjustment according to terms of the agreement.

Sale of proveo AG - On August 3, 2011, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with F Two NV (a Belgium company) to sell all of our interest in Zebra Enterprise Solutions GmbH (formerly proveo AG) business. The loss recorded upon divestiture was $1,248,000. As part of the sale, Zebra agreed with the buyer to provide a revolving loan of up to €1,000,000 which is due August 3, 2012 and bears interest at 6.5%. Zebra realized tax benefits in the amount of $13,308,000 with the divestiture of proveo AG. These tax benefits are primarily related to the difference in book basis versus tax basis. On June 29, 2012 F Two NV (a Belgium company) sold the business and assigned the revolving loan to OBQ SA (a Luxembourg company) with Zebra’s consent. The revolving loan commitment was reduced to a lesser amount of up to €526,058. The due date for borrowings under the agreement was extended from August 3, 2012 to December 31, 2012. The interest rate remains unchanged at 6.5%.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2011, Zebra reported the results of these businesses as discontinued operations. The amounts presented below for discontinued operations include the operating results of Navis and proveo for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and July 2, 2011. After the Navis sale, Zebra consolidated the remaining Location Solutions product lines.
