Subsequent Events [Abstract] |
Subsequent Events | On July 18, 2013 announced the signing of an asset purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") to acquire Johnson Controls' HomeLink® business. HomeLink, a vehicle-based control system that enables drivers to remotely activate garage door openers, entry door locks, home lighting, security systems, entry gates, and other radio frequency convenience products, has been integrated into the Company's automatic-dimming mirrors for more than 10 years. It is compatible with a wide variety of home safety and convenience products, and is currently offered in all automotive brands. HomeLink is compatible with more than 99 percent of garage door opening systems, and is sold in North America, Europe, Africa, Asia/Pacific and the Middle East. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will acquire all of Johnson Controls' HomeLink assets, intellectual property, testing facilities, and the talented employees who manage and support the business, for a purchase price of $700 million subject to working capital adjustments. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including certain regulatory approval, and is targeted to close on or about September 30, 2013.
