During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a $1.9 billion loss on assets held for sale related to the Worldpay Merchant Solutions reporting unit to reduce its carrying value to its estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell, primarily as a result of the exclusion of certain deferred tax liabilities that were not expected to be transferred in the transaction. This amount was subsequently updated until the closing of the Worldpay Sale. As a result of the Worldpay Sale, during the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a loss on sale of disposal group of $578 million, including the impact of post-closing adjustments recorded to date. We also recorded a cumulative tax benefit of $1.1 billion in connection with the Worldpay Sale, primarily from the release of U.S. deferred tax liabilities that were not transferred in the Worldpay Sale, net of the estimated U.S. tax cost that the Company expects to incur as a result of the Worldpay Sale. Completion of remaining purchase agreement provisions in connection with the Worldpay Sale could result in further adjustments to the loss on sale amount and the estimated U.S. tax cost. Additionally, as part of the Worldpay Sale, the Company obtained the right to receive $1.0 billion of consideration contingent on the returns realized by the Buyer exceeding certain thresholds ("Worldpay Sale contingent consideration"). The Company recognized this financial instrument as a derivative as discussed further in Note 15. The following table presents the major classes of assets and liabilities of the disposal group classified as held for sale presented in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023 (in millions). As of December 31, 2024, the table excludes the value of certain assets and liabilities held for sale related to the expected sale of a non-strategic business, unrelated to the Worldpay transaction, for which the results are not reported in discontinued operations. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less cost to sell and are not depreciated or amortized.
