Note L – Discontinued Operations

We sold the assets of our California Shoppers operations to affiliates of OpenGate Capital Management, LLC (“OpenGate”) on September 27, 2013.  Because Shoppers represented a distinct business unit with operations and cash flows that can clearly be distinguished, both operationally and for financial purposes, from the rest of Harte Hanks, the results of the Shoppers operations are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

 

Results of the remaining Harte Hanks marketing services business are reported as continuing operations.
