Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale
On March 18, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for the sale of its PAC Business to Synthomer plc (the “Buyer”) for a purchase price of approximately $226. Assets included in the transaction are the Company’s manufacturing sites in Sokolov, Czech Republic; Sant’Albano, Italy; Leuna, Germany; Asua, Spain; Roebuck, South Carolina; and Chonburi, Thailand. The PAC Business produces resins, polymers, monomers and additives that provide enhanced performance for adhesives, sealants, paints, coatings, mortars and cements used primarily in consumer, industrial and building and construction applications.
The PAC Business generated annual sales of approximately $370 in 2015, and is reported within the Epoxy, Phenolic and Coating Resins Division of the Company. The PAC Business had pre-tax income of $5 and $4 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is reported as a component of “Loss before income tax and earnings from unconsolidated entities” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The sale is subject to customary closing conditions, including Works Council consultation. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016. Until the closing date, the Company has agreed to operate the PAC Business in the ordinary course. The Company has also agreed to provide certain transitional services to the Buyer for a limited period of time following the closing.
