Cardinal Holdings

On July 31, 2017, FIS closed on the sale of a majority ownership stake in the Capco consulting business and risk and compliance consulting business to Clayton, Dubilier & Rice L.P., by and through certain funds that it manages ("CD&R"). CD&R acquired a 60% interest in the entity (Cardinal Holdings, L.P. ("Cardinal")) and FIS obtained the remaining 40% interest, in each case before equity issued to management (Note 9). Cardinal became a related party effective July 31, 2017.

Upon closing on the sale of the Capco consulting business and risk and compliance consulting business, FIS and Cardinal entered into a short-term Transition Services Agreement ("TSA"), whereby FIS provides various agreed upon services to Cardinal. FIS also provides ongoing management consulting services to Cardinal. Amounts transacted through these agreements were not significant to the 2017 periods presented.

Capco continues to provide Banco Bradesco S.A. ("Banco Bradesco") with consulting services. Capco revenue and related party receivables from Banco Bradesco through the July 31, 2017 closing is included below under Brazilian Venture revenue from Banco Bradesco.

Brazilian Venture

The Company operates a joint venture ("Brazilian Venture") with Banco Bradesco, in which we own a 51% controlling interest, to provide comprehensive, fully-outsourced transaction processing, call center, cardholder support and collection services to multiple card issuing clients in Brazil, including Banco Bradesco. The original accounting for this transaction resulted in the establishment of a contract intangible asset and a liability for amounts payable to the original partner banks upon final migration of their respective card portfolios and achieving targeted volumes (the “Brazilian Venture Notes”). The board of directors for the Brazilian Venture declared a dividend resulting in payments of $23 million and $20 million, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The unamortized contract intangible asset balance as of September 30, 2017 was $75 million. The carrying value of the noncontrolling interest as of September 30, 2017 was $98 million.

The Company recorded revenues of $81 million and $75 million during the three months and $250 million and $195 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, from Banco Bradesco. Revenues from Banco Bradesco included $2 million and $23 million of favorable currency impact during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, resulting from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. Dollar and Brazilian Real.
