Discontinued Operations
On November 4, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its tungsten materials business, which produces tungsten powder, tungsten heavy alloys, tungsten carbide materials, and carbide cutting tools. The operating results for this business have been included in discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Also, during the third quarter of 2013, the Company completed a strategic review of its iron castings and fabricated components businesses. Based on current and forecasted results, these businesses were not projected to meet the Company’s long-term profitable growth and return on capital employed expectations resulting in the closure of the fabricated components business and planned divestiture of the iron casting business in 2013. The net assets of these businesses were classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and the operating results of these businesses have been included in discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.
In April 2014, the Company determined that it will close its iron castings business, as the planned divestiture of this business through a sale process as previously announced was not able to be completed on commercially acceptable terms. The orderly wind-down of operations is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter 2014 and is expected to result in approximately $3 million of cash exit costs, including approximately $2 million of pre-tax charges that will be recognized through the third quarter 2014, primarily related to severance benefits, as part of the results of discontinued operations.
