DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

As of December 31, 2013, we had three care centers classified as held for sale. During 2014, we sold assets associated with two of these care centers and consolidated one of these care centers with a care center servicing the same market. There were no care centers classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2014.

As we exited certain geographical areas and in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the care centers which were classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2013 and subsequently sold in 2014 are presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements. The care center consolidated with a care center servicing the same markets is presented in continuing operations as we expect continuing cash flows from these markets. For additional information on the care centers consolidated with care centers servicing the same markets and the care centers sold, see Note 13 – Exit Activities and Restructuring Activities.

Operating results for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2014 for those care centers classified as discontinued operations are as follows: loss before income taxes of $0.3 million, income tax benefit of $0.1 million and net loss from discontinued operations of $0.2 million.
