DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Lightlife® Operations
In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, we completed the sale of the assets of the Lightlife® business for $54.7 million in cash. This business produced and sold vegetarian-based burgers, hot dogs, and other meatless frozen and refrigerated items. The results of this business were previously reflected in the Consumer Foods segment. We reflected the results of these operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented. We recognized a pre-tax gain of $32.1 million ($19.8 million after-tax) on the sale of this business, which is classified as discontinued operations in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The assets of the discontinued Lightlife business have been reclassified as assets held for sale within our condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented prior to divestiture.
