Divestitures and Acquisitions | Note 3 Divestitures and Acquisitions Sales of North American foam trays and absorbent pads business On April 1, 2015, we completed the sale of our North American foam trays and absorbent pads business to NOVIPAX, a portfolio company of Atlas Holdings LLC, for net proceeds of $76 million, net of certain purchase price adjustments of $6 million and subject to final purchase price adjustment. The decision to sell this business was based on managements’ assessment that the business was becoming quickly commoditized and faced significant competitive pricing pressure and declining profit margins. The sale included our manufacturing facilities in Paxinos and Reading, PA, Indianapolis, IN, Rockingham, NC, and Grenada, MS. After transaction costs of $7 million, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $29 million ($19 million, net of tax) on the sale, which is included in net earnings available to common shareholders in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The North American foam trays and absorbent pads business was part of the Company’s Food Care division. The disposal of the North American foam trays and absorbent pads business did not qualify as a discontinued operation. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at disposition on April 1, 2015 are excluded from our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015. The carrying value of the major classes of assets and liabilities for the business at the date of disposition and on December 31, 2014 were as follows:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the North American foam trays and absorbent pads businesses contributed approximately $53 million, $53 million, and $162 million of net sales; and $10 million, $9 million and $29 million of pre-tax income, respectively, which excludes certain allocated costs, including corporate support services, for which the Company would normally include in measuring its performance. In connection with the sale, the Company and NOVIPAX entered into various other agreements, including an Intellectual Property License Agreement, Supply Agreements, a Sublease Agreement, Temporary Occupancy License Agreements and a Transition Service Agreement. Acquisition of Intellibot Robotics, LLC During the first quarter of 2015, we acquired the business of Intellibot Robotics LLC, a U.S.-based privately owned company that has pioneered the development of robotic commercial floor cleaning machines. The purchase price was $18 million which included cash paid of $9 million and $9 million related to the fair value of contingent consideration. The net assets acquired, which primarily included intangible assets, were $11 million which resulted in goodwill of $7 million. Acquisition of B+ Equipment During the third quarter of 2015, we acquired the business of B+ Equipment, a company headquartered in France that designs, manufactures and services automated packaging equipment for order fulfillment operations. The purchase price was $20 million which included an immaterial amount of contingent consideration. The net assets consisted of $13 million of primarily intangible assets and $7 million of goodwill.
