[1] As further discussed in Note 10, the fair value of the FMC Health and Nutrition business being exchanged to DuPont are significantly greater than its carrying value. However, we determined the fair value of our separate Omega-3 assets held for sale, which are not included in the expected DuPont transaction, to be significantly less than carrying value. These assets used to be part of the broader FMC Health and Nutrition reporting unit. The charge was recorded to “Discontinued operations, net of income taxes” on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our evaluation of fair value, less costs to sell included a combination of preliminary bids received from a prospective buyer as well as discounted cash flow models to estimate fair value.
[2] We recorded an impairment charge, related to our FMC Agricultural Solutions segment, to write down the carrying value of the generic brand portfolio of approximately $1.0 million to its fair value.
