Discontinued Operations. |
Discontinued Operations | 3. Discontinued Operations In August 2012, our Venezuelan subsidiary sold its previously nationalized assets to PDVSA Gas, S.A. (“PDVSA Gas”) for a purchase price of approximately $441.7 million. We received installment payments, including an annual charge, totaling $18.7 million and $17.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The remaining principal amount due to us of approximately $99 million as of March 31, 2015, is payable in quarterly cash installments through the third quarter of 2016. We have not recognized amounts payable to us by PDVSA Gas as a receivable and will therefore recognize quarterly payments received in the future as income from discontinued operations in the periods such payments are received. The proceeds from the sale of the assets are not subject to Venezuelan national taxes due to an exemption allowed under the Venezuelan Reserve Law applicable to expropriation settlements. In addition, and in connection with the sale, we and the Venezuelan government agreed to waive rights to assert certain claims against each other. In connection with the sale of these assets, we have agreed to suspend the arbitration proceeding previously filed by our Spanish subsidiary against Venezuela pending payment in full by PDVSA Gas of the purchase price for these nationalized assets. In December 2013, we abandoned our contract water treatment business as part of our continued emphasis on simplification and focus on our core businesses. The abandonment of this business meets the criteria established for recognition as discontinued operations under GAAP. Therefore, our contract water treatment business is reflected as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements. This business was previously included in our North American contract operations business segment. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we reversed the remaining tax deductible temporary differences relating to our contract water treatment business. There was no impact on income from discontinued operations, net of tax, as the reversal resulted in a deferred tax asset for net operating losses. The resulting deferred tax asset is reflected as current deferred income taxes in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The following table summarizes the operating results of discontinued operations (in thousands):
