________________________________________________
(1) Loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 resulted primarily from revisions to liabilities retained in connection with the disposition. Income for the year ended December 31, 2021 resulted primarily from the gain on sale of the business of $382.2, as well as the results of operations for the year. Income for the year ended December 31, 2020 related to the results of operations for the year.

(2) During the fourth quarter of 2021, we liquidated certain recently acquired entities. As a result of this action, we recorded a net income tax benefit of $16.5 within our 2021 consolidated statement of operations, which included an income tax charge of $10.9 within continuing operations and income tax benefit of $27.4 within discontinued operations.
(3) Loss for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 resulted primarily from legal costs incurred in connection with various dispute resolution matters related to two large power projects. In addition, and as previously noted, the year ended December 31, 2021 includes a charge of $19.9 related to the write-off of historical translation amounts.

(4) Loss for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 resulted primarily from asbestos-related charges and revisions to liabilities, including income tax liabilities, retained in connection with prior dispositions.

Changes in estimates associated with liabilities retained in connection with a business divestiture (e.g., income taxes) may occur. As a result, it is possible that the resulting gains/losses on previous business divestitures may be materially adjusted in subsequent periods.
