Divestitures Closed in 2023 The Company completed the divestiture of a non-core domestic aerosol business within the Consumer Brands Group in April 2023. This transaction resulted in the recognition of a $20.1 million gain in 2023 within the Administrative function. This gain was recorded within Other general (income) expense - net. See Note 19 for further information. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company completed the divestiture of the China architectural business within the Consumer Brands Group. An immaterial working capital adjustment was finalized during the first quarter of 2024. The associated net assets were classified as held for sale at June 30, 2023 in accordance with the Property, Plant and Equipment Topic of the ASC. Following the prescribed order of impairment testing, the Company first reviewed individual tangible and intangible assets under their applicable Topic of the ASC to determine if their carrying value was higher than their respective fair value. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.9 million within the Consumer Brands Group related to China architectural trademarks during 2023. The Company then compared the updated carrying value of the assets and liabilities comprising the disposal group as a whole to its respective fair value which was determined to be equal to the selling price, less costs to sell. As a result of this comparison, the Company recorded an additional impairment charge of $27.1 million within the Administrative function in the second quarter of 2023. The fair value of the disposal group was classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as it was based on a specific price and other observable inputs for similar items with no active market. These divestitures did not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements as the Company’s decision to divest these businesses did not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.
