Classifieds

On June 24, 2021, we completed the previously announced transfer of our Classifieds business to Adevinta for $2.5 billion in cash, subject to certain adjustments, and approximately 540 million shares in Adevinta which represented an equity interest of 44%. Together, the total consideration received under the definitive agreement was valued at approximately $13.3 billion, based on the closing trading price of Adevinta’s outstanding shares at the Oslo Stock Exchange on June 24, 2021. The transfer resulted in a pre-tax gain of $12.5 billion and related income tax expense of $2.1 billion, both within income from discontinued operations. The results of our Classifieds business have been presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of income for all periods presented through June 24, 2021 as the transfer represented a strategic shift in our business that had a major effect on our operations and financial results.

In addition, upon closing we entered into a transition service agreement (“TSA”) with Adevinta to support the operations of Classifieds after the divestiture for fees of $29 million. This agreement terminated during the second quarter of 2022.

eBay Korea

On November 14, 2021, we completed the previously announced sale of 80.01% of the outstanding equity interests of eBay Korea to Emart, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the securities purchase agreement, in exchange for approximately $3.0 billion of gross cash proceeds as of the transaction close date, subject to certain adjustments. The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of $3.2 billion inclusive of a $81 million currency translation adjustment and a $44 million gain on the net investment hedge settled in the fourth quarter of 2021, as well as income tax expense of $369 million. The results of our eBay Korea business have been presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statement of income for all periods presented through November 14, 2021 as the transfer represented a strategic shift in our business that had a major effect on our operations and financial results.

In addition, upon closing we entered into a transition service agreement with eBay Korea to support the operations of eBay Korea after the divestiture for immaterial fees. This agreement commenced with the close of the transaction and is currently expected to terminate during the fourth quarter of 2022.
