Acquisitions and Dispositions

(5) Acquisitions and Dispositions

 

From time to time, we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world, including franchises. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, total cash consideration paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $7.7, which represents a consideration payment for a franchise in the United States and contingent consideration payments related to a previous acquisition. No cash consideration was paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Occasionally, we dispose of parts of our operations based on risk considerations and to optimize our global strategic and geographic footprint and overall efficiency. On September 29, 2023, we disposed of our Philippines business in our APME segment for total consideration of $6.5. In connection with the disposition, we recognized a one-time net loss on disposition of $1.3.
