3. Discontinued Operations

 

On December 21, 2012, the Company completed the sale of all of the outstanding shares of its subsidiary, Flomatic Corporation (Flomatic). The sale excluded the backflow product line of Flomatic, which was retained by the Company.  Flomatic, located in Glens Falls, New York, specializes in manufacturing and selling check valves, foot valves and automatic hydraulic control valves for the well water industry. The Company acquired Flomatic as part of its acquisition of Danfoss Socla S.A.S. (Socla) in April 2011.  The Company evaluated the operations of Flomatic and determined that it would not have a substantial continuing involvement in Flomatic’s operations and cash flows. As a result, Flomatic’s cash flows and operations were eliminated from the continuing operations of the Company and classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
