Discontinued Operations

On June 26, 2015, our Board approved the separation of PayPal through the distribution of 100% of the outstanding common stock of PayPal Holdings, Inc. ("PayPal") to our stockholders (the "Distribution"). To consummate the Distribution, our Board declared a pro rata dividend of PayPal Holdings, Inc. common stock to eBay’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on July 8, 2015 (the “Record Date”). Each eBay stockholder received one (1) share of PayPal Holdings, Inc. common stock for every share of eBay common stock held at the close of business on the Record Date. The Distribution occurred on July 17, 2015. Immediately following the Distribution, PayPal became an independent, publicly traded company and is listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market under the ticker “PYPL.” eBay continues to trade on The NASDAQ Stock Market under the ticker “EBAY.” We have classified the results of PayPal as discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of income for all periods presented. In connection with the Distribution, we reviewed our capital allocation strategy to ensure that each of PayPal and eBay would be well capitalized at Distribution. Pursuant to the terms of the separation and distribution agreement entered into between us and PayPal on June 26, 2015, upon Distribution, assets related to the PayPal business were transferred to, and liabilities related to the PayPal business were retained or assumed by, PayPal. As part of this strategy, we contributed approximately $3.8 billion of cash to PayPal in 2015.

During the second quarter of 2015, our Board approved a plan to sell the businesses underlying our former Enterprise segment (“Enterprise”). Based on the expected sales proceeds, we recorded a goodwill impairment of $786 million in the second quarter of 2015. On July 16, 2015, we signed a definitive agreement to sell Enterprise for $925 million and on November 2, 2015, the sale closed. We recorded a loss of $35 million upon closing included within income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes. We have classified the results of Enterprise as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statement of income for all periods presented.

The financial results of PayPal and Enterprise are presented as loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes on our condensed consolidated statement of income. The following table presents the combined financial results of PayPal and Enterprise:
