Divestiture | 5. DIVESTITURE On January 14, 2017, the company completed the sale of a non-core mix manufacturing business located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for $44.0 million, an amount reduced by a working capital adjustment of $2.8 million, resulting in net proceeds of $41.2 million. This resulted in a gain on sale of $28.9 million, which was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The gain on the sale is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations on the ‘Gain on divestiture’ line item. The mix manufacturing business was a small component of our Warehouse Segment and the disposal of this business does not represent a strategic shift in the segment’s operations or financial results.
