DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company’s business that represents a separate major line of business that had been disposed of or is held for sale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative Consolidated Statement of Operations, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and Consolidated Balance Sheets are re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year.

During the fourth quarter of 2017, as part of Company’s review of strategic alternatives, the Company made the decision to sell its switchgear business. Operating results for switchgear business, which have been previously included in the T&D Solutions Segment, have now been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
