Acquisitions and dispositions

In March 2016, CareerBuilder acquired 100% of Aurico Inc. (Aurico), a provider of background screening and drug testing which services both U.S. and international customers. Aurico expands CareerBuilder’s product line to include another critical step in the job hiring process.

On March 18, 2016, we sold Sightline Media Group (Sightline) to Regent Companies LLC. Our Sightline business unit was previously classified as held for sale as of the end of fiscal year 2015; and as a result, the operating results of Sightline have been included in discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 13 for further discussion.

On August 1, 2016, we acquired 100% of DMR Holdings, Inc. (DealerRater), a leading automotive dealer review website. We funded the acquisition with a combination of borrowing under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand. DealerRater will be combined into our Cars.com business unit within our Digital Segment. The addition of DealerRater further strengthens Cars.com’s position as a leader in online automotive reviews.
