Deconsolidation

In September 2015, the Company entered into transactions pursuant to which the Company has received $0.7 million as of September 30th, and will receive approximately $7.1 million, $3.6 million in return for shares of Kingstone and $3.5 million for the repayment of a loan, including interest, reducing its ownership to 15% of the Hong Kong holding company (effectively a 10% beneficial ownership in the Shanghai operating entity). The loan carries interest at 1% per annum and the balance and interest were paid in full in October 2015. The cash for the sale of shares was received in November 2015. According to the terms of the transaction agreements, the Company will receive $5.6 million, approximately $3.1 million net of tax, by March 31, 2016, for its exclusive sales and service rights in the solar ion implant equipment. Following closing, the Company no longer held a controlling interest in Kingstone and as a result, Kingstone was deconsolidated on September 16, 2015, eliminating the assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests recorded for Kingstone from the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company's investment in Kingstone will be accounted for using the equity method for periods subsequent to the deconsolidation due to the Company's ability to exert significant influence over the financial and operating policies of Kingstone, primarily through our representation on the board of directors. See Note 16 - Investment for additional details.

The Company recorded a gain of $8.8 million as a result of the deconsolidation. The gain was computed as follows: the fair value of consideration received, plus the fair values of the retained non-controlling interest and the sales and service rights, less the carrying value of Kingstone's net assets.
