The Company operates 22 plants in our continuing operations across the U.S., Canada, Chile, and Brazil through foreign subsidiaries, an d it operates facilities through joint ventures. The principal customers for our building solutions are retailers, wholesalers, and homebuilding and industrial businesses in North America and South America, with limited sales to Asia, Australia, and Europe. References to "LP," the "Company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Louisiana-Pacific Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries as a whole. In June 2022, LP and one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into an asset purchase agreement with Pacific Woodtech Corporation, a Washington corporation, and Pacific Woodtech Canada Holdings Limited, a British Columbia limited company (collectively, the Purchaser). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the asset purchase agreement, LP agreed to sell to the Purchaser the assets related to its Engineered Wood Products (EWP) segment in exchange for the Purchaser’s payment to the Company of $210 million in cash, subject to certain purchase price adjustments, and the Purchaser’s assumption of certain liabilities of the EWP segment. On August 1, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the EWP assets to the Purchaser. Upon closing, the Company entered into a transition services agreement with the Purchaser, pursuant to which the Company agreed to support the various activities of the EWP segment for a period not to exceed eight months. As of June 30, 2022, we have classified the related assets and liabilities associated with the EWP segment as held for sale in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The results of our EWP segment have been presented as discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented. See Note 7 –Discontinued Operations for additional information.
