The assets and liabilities to be disposed of in connection with this transaction met the held for sale criteria as of April 30, 2021. The carrying value of the net assets held for sale, inclusive of the cumulative translation adjustment balance attributable to this business, was greater than their fair value, less costs to sell, resulting in a loss of $3.8 million, which is included in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the six months ended April 30, 2021. The REV Brazil business is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment. The Company previously made an initial investment in its China joint venture, Anhui Chery REV Specialty Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd (“China JV”), in exchange for 10% equity interest in its China JV. The Company recorded this investment under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s investment in the China JV also includes an interest-bearing loan. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company made the strategic decision to exit its interests in the China JV and began soliciting offers to sell the investment and settle the loan. In connection with this decision, the Company recorded a loss of $6.2 million, which represents the difference between the carrying value of the investment and loan and the estimated proceeds to be received upon sale and settlement, respectively. This amount was recorded as a non-operating loss within our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021.
