7. Dispositions:

 

In the third quarter of 2019, the Company sold its retail analytics solution business for $2.0 million excluding contingent and indemnity escrows of $0.4 million. The sale resulted in a loss of $6.2 million that was included within "Other operating loss (income)" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company’s compliance background screening business and the aerial imagery sourcing group within the remote imagery business qualified as assets held for sale. These assets held for sale were part of the claims category within the Company’s Insurance segment as of December 31, 2019.

 

On February 1, 2020, the sale of the aerial imagery sourcing group was completed. The Company contributed assets related to the disposed business, including cash of $63.8 million, in exchange for a non-controlling 35.0% ownership interest in a nonpublic company, Vexcel. The Company determined the fair value of the securities associated with the non-controlling ownership interest in Vexcel with the assistance of valuations performed by third party specialists, including the discounted cash flow analysis and estimates made by management. The securities were concluded not to have a readily determinable fair value and did not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10. At each subsequent reporting period, the Company is required to perform a qualitative assessment considering impairment indicators to evaluate whether the investment is impaired. The contributed assets approximated the fair value of the equity securities related to the non-controlling ownership interest; therefore, there was no gain or loss recorded in conjunction with this disposition for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

             

On February 14, 2020, the sale of the compliance background screening business was completed for net cash proceeds of $23.1 million. A gain of $15.9 million was included in "Other operating loss (income)" within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

             

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company's data warehouse business within the Financial Services segment qualified as assets held for sale and was sold on March 1, 2020. The Company recorded a gain of $3.5 million in "Other operating loss (income)" within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
