DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On July 31, 2013, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“ASV SPA”) to sell its bus business to Allied Specialty Vehicles, Inc. (“ASV”) for cash of $100,000, subject to closing adjustments for changes in the net assets sold from April 30, 2013 to the closing date. The Company’s bus business, which manufactured and sold transit and shuttle buses, included the operations of Champion Bus Inc., General Coach America, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ElDorado National (California), Inc. and ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc. This divestiture will allow the Company to focus on the strategic development and growth of its core recreational vehicle business. The sale was completed as of October 20, 2013 and the Company received $100,000 on October 21, 2013. Under the terms of the ASV SPA, the total cash consideration to be received was subject to adjustment based on changes in the carrying value of the net assets of the bus business between April 30, 2013 and October 20, 2013. The amount of the final net asset adjustment was determined through the completion of a post-close audit during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Based on the final agreed-upon carrying value of the bus business net assets sold as of October 20, 2013, an additional $5,043 was collected from ASV on February 19, 2014, representing the increase in bus net assets since April 30, 2013. As a result, final cash consideration received for the sale of the bus business totaled $105,043. The Company has recorded a pre-tax gain of $7,079 as a result of the sale. The results of operations for the bus business, including the gain on the sale of the bus business, have been reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for all periods presented. In the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that certain long-lived assets associated with the Company’s ambulance product line would be sold before the end of their previously estimated useful life. This was determined to be a triggering event and an impairment assessment relative to those assets was performed. Based on the assessment, the Company determined that the carrying amount of the assets would not be recoverable from future cash flows and as a result, a non-cash impairment charge of $4,715 related to certain amortizable intangible assets was recorded. In the third quarter of fiscal 2013, prior to the annual impairment assessment, the Company also performed an interim goodwill impairment assessment relative to the goodwill associated with the reporting unit that included the ambulance product line. Based on the assessment, the Company determined that the fair value of this reporting unit was less than the carrying value and therefore performed the second step of the goodwill impairment assessment, which requires estimating the fair values of the reporting unit’s net identifiable assets and calculating the implied fair value of goodwill. The fair value of this reporting unit was determined by a discounted cash flow model and market approach, consistent with its last annual impairment assessment. The implied fair value of goodwill was determined to be zero and, therefore, recorded goodwill was impaired and a non-cash impairment charge of $6,810 was recognized in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013. The goodwill impairment was primarily a result of lower forecasted margins and increased working capital requirements within this reporting unit. The non-cash impairment charges for amortizable intangible assets and goodwill discussed above totaled $11,525 for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and are included in discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The asset fair values utilized in the impairment assessments described above were determined using Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820. On April 30, 2013, the Company sold the assets held and used in the conduct of its ambulance product line (excluding the plant utilized in ambulance production and certain other excluded assets) for a final price of $12,051. There was no gain or loss recognized on the sale. Discontinued operations for fiscal 2013 and 2012 include the results of the ambulance product line. The following table summarizes the results of discontinued operations:
|  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |
Net sales |  |  |  | $ | 83,903 |  |  |  |  | $ | 448,385 |  |  |  |  | $ | 444,862 |
Operating income (loss) of discontinued operations |  |  |  | $ | (5,735 | ) |  |  |  | $ | 12,080 |  |  |  |  | $ | 15,303 |
Pre-tax gain on disposal of discontinued business |  |  |  |  | 7,079 |  |  |  |  |  | – |  |  |  |  |  | – |
Impairment charges |  |  |  |  | – |  |  |  |  |  | 11,525 |  |  |  |  |  | – |
Income before income taxes |  |  |  |  | 1,344 |  |  |  |  |  | 555 |  |  |  |  |  | 15,303 |
Income tax benefit (expense) |  |  |  |  | 2,142 |  |  |  |  |  | 631 |  |  |  |  |  | (4,999 | )
Income from discontinued operations, net of taxes |  |  |  | $ | 3,486 |  |  |  |  | $ | 1,186 |  |  |  |  | $ | 10,304 |
Operating income (loss) of discontinued operations during fiscal 2014 reflects expenses incurred directly related to the former bus operations, including expenses related to liabilities retained by the Company under the ASV SPA for bus product liability and worker’s compensation claims occurring prior to the closing date of the sale. As a result of the sale of the bus business, and in accordance with the ASV SPA, the Company is no longer the primary obligor to the taxing authorities for bus operations in certain states. As a result, the Company eliminated the reserves associated with certain uncertain tax positions resulting in a net tax benefit of $1,883 which is reflected within discontinued operations for fiscal 2014. Under the terms of the sale, the Company has agreed to indemnify ASV for any claims made by the taxing authorities after the date of sale for these uncertain tax positions but does not expect future losses under this guarantee to be material. The effective tax rate of discontinued operations for fiscal 2014 was favorably impacted primarily by tax return to provision adjustments and the settlement of certain uncertain tax benefits. The following is a summary of the assets and liabilities of discontinued operations, excluding cash, which were held for sale as of July 31, 2013:
Accounts and other receivable, net |  | $ | 29,894 |
Inventories, net of LIFO reserve of $9,683 |  |  | 61,800 |
Property, plant and equipment, cost |  |  | 50,985 |
Accumulated depreciation, property, plant and equipment |  |  | (21,422 | )

In accordance with the ASV SPA, the Company will retain the costs and liabilities associated with the bus business product liability and worker’s compensation claims for any occurrence prior to the closing date of the sale. Therefore, these reserves, and any related ongoing legal fees, were not included in the liabilities of discontinued operations on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 31, 2013.
