Community Financial Services

On March 3, 2016, the Company completed the sale of its Community Financial Services (“CFS”) related assets and liabilities, a part of the Americas segment, to Fiserv, Inc. (“Fiserv”) for $200.0 million. The sale of CFS, which was not strategic to the Company’s long-term strategy, is part of the Company’s ongoing efforts to expand as a provider of software products, Software as a Service-based, and platform-based solutions facilitating real-time electronic and eCommerce payments for large financial institutions, intermediaries, retailers, and billers worldwide. The sale included employee agreements and customer contracts as well as technology assets and intellectual property.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized a net after-tax gain of $93.4 million on the sale of assets to Fiserv. This gain includes final post-closing adjustments pursuant to the definitive transaction agreement of $0.5 million recognized during the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

The Company and Fiserv have also entered into a Transition Services Agreement (“TSA”), whereby the Company continues to perform certain functions on Fiserv’s behalf during a migration period not to exceed 18 months from the date of the sale. The TSA is meant to reimburse the Company for direct costs incurred in order to provide such functions, which are no longer generating revenue for the Company.
