The gain/(loss) on sale of the Wella Business included in Net income (loss) from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations was nil, $6.1, and $(246.4) for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Initial cash proceeds received by the Company for the sale of its 60% stake in the Wella Business were $2,451.7 and the Company retained an equity interest of 40%. The loss on sale reflects the net assets sold, taxes and other costs to sell the Wella Business.

On December 22, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with KKR Bidco related to post-closing adjustments to the purchase consideration for the Wella Business. As part of this agreement, the Company may receive future contingent proceeds, based on the future recovery of certain tax credits of the Wella Business.

The Company accounts for the initial measurement of contingent consideration under a loss recovery approach. As of the time the contingent consideration arrangement was entered into, the Company was unable to determine that it was probable that any of the contingent consideration would be earned. Therefore, no contingent consideration gain was initially recognized. Subsequent measurement of the contingent consideration is based on the guidance for gain contingencies and any gain will be recorded at the time the consideration is earned.

In fiscal 2022, a $34.0 advance of future contingent proceeds was paid to the Company and subject to claw back if recovery targets related to the Wella Business tax credits are not achieved. During fiscal 2023 and 2022, certain recovery targets were achieved and the Company recognized gains of $30.8 and $0.7, respectively, reported in Other income, net. The remaining $2.5 is unearned and is included in Other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the contingency is resolved.
