​ On March 13, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its You Technology business to Inmar for total consideration of $565, including $396 of cash and $64 of preferred equity received upon closing. The Company is also entitled to receive other cash payments of $105 over five years. The transaction includes a long-term service agreement for Inmar to provide the Company digital coupon services. The sale resulted in a gain of $70, $52 net of tax, which is included in “Gain on sale of businesses” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company recorded the fair value of the long-term service agreement of $358 in “Other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and such amount is being recorded as sales over the 10-year agreement. ​ On April 26, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its Turkey Hill Dairy business to an affiliate of Peak Rock Capital for total proceeds of $225. The sale resulted in a gain of $106, $80 net of tax, which is included in “Gain on sale of businesses” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. ​ In the third quarter of 2019, as a result of a portfolio review, the Company decided to divest its interest in Lucky’s Market. The Company recognized an impairment charge of $238 in the third quarter of 2019, which is included in OG&A in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The impairment charge consists of property, plant and equipment of $200, which includes $40 of finance lease assets; goodwill of $19; operating lease assets of $11; and other charges of $8. The amount of the impairment charge attributable to The Kroger Co. is $131, $100 net of tax, with the remaining amount attributable to the minority interest. Subsequently, the decision was made by Lucky’s Market to file for bankruptcy in January 2020, which led the Company to fully write off the value of its investment and deconsolidate Lucky’s Market from the consolidated financial statements. This resulted in an additional non-cash charge of $174, $125 net of tax, in the fourth quarter of 2019, which is included in OG&A in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amount of the total 2019 charge attributable to The Kroger Co. is $305, $225 net of tax. The Company maintains liabilities associated with certain property related guarantees that will result in the Company making payments to settle these over time. ​
