Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] |
Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure [Text Block] | Divestiture On July 28, 2019, the Company completed its sale of selected cookies, fruit and fruit-flavored snacks, pie crusts, and ice cream cones businesses to Ferrero International S.A. (“Ferrero”) for approximately $1.3 billion in cash, subject to a working capital adjustment mechanism. Both the total assets and net assets of the businesses were approximately $1.3 billion, resulting in a net pre-tax gain of $38 million during the quarter ended September 28, 2019, recorded in Other income and (expense), after including related costs to sell of $14 million. Additionally, the Company recognized curtailment gains related to the divestiture totaling $17 million in our U.S. pension and nonpension postretirement plans. The operating results for these businesses were primarily included in the North America reporting segment prior to the sale. Proceeds from the divestiture were used primarily to redeem $1.0 billion of debt during the third quarter. The Company expects to pay approximately $260 million of cash taxes on the divestiture in the fourth quarter of 2019. In connection with the sale, the Company entered into a transition services agreement (TSA) with Ferrero, under which the Company will provide certain services to Ferrero to help facilitate an orderly transition of the businesses following the sale. In return for these services, Ferrero is required to pay certain agreed upon fees that are designed to reimburse the Company for certain costs incurred by the Company in providing such services, plus specified nominal margins which are immaterial. The TSA provides for a term of services starting at the sale completion date and continuing for a period of up to 18 months.
