Suntory Holdings Limited
During our second quarter of 2013, as part of the refranchising of our beverage business in Vietnam, we completed a transaction with Suntory Holdings Limited. Under the terms of the agreement, we sold a controlling interest in our Vietnam bottling operations. The alliance serves as the franchise bottler for both companies. In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 15, 2013, we recorded a pre- and after-tax gain of $137 million (or $0.09 per share) associated with this transaction.
