Discontinued Operations and Divestitures

Note 15. Discontinued Operations and Divestitures

We will divest (through sale or closure) business operations that do not contribute to our long-term objectives for growth, or that are not complementary to our target service offerings and markets.

Discontinued Operations

Divestitures are classified as discontinued operations provided they meet the criteria and treatment as discontinued operations. Discontinued operations primarily consist of two insignificant businesses units under the Financial Services practice group that were sold in 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we did not discontinue the operations of any of our businesses.

Divestitures

 

Divested operations and assets that do not qualify for treatment as discontinued operations are recorded as “Gain on sale of operations, net” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. We recorded a gain of $0.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 related to a small accounting firm in the Financial Services practice group. We recorded a gain of $0.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 related to a small book of business under the Benefits and Insurance Services practice group.
