Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]  
Discontinued Operations Discontinued Operations
In 2016, Cumberland entered into an agreement with Clinigen Group Plc ("Clinigen") for the rights and responsibilities associated with the commercialization of Ethyol in the United States. In 2017, the Company entered into another agreement with Clinigen for the rights and responsibilities associated with the commercialization of Totect in the United States. Ethyol and Totect are collectively referred to herein as the "Products."
Early in 2019, Cumberland announced a strategic review the Company's brands, capabilities, and international partners. This review followed an accelerated business development initiative, which resulted in a series of transactions. Because of that progress, Cumberland felt that it was prudent to take a fresh look at our product portfolio, partners, and organization to ensure proper focus and capabilities. In May 2019 following the strategic review, Cumberland entered into an agreement with Clinigen to return the exclusive rights to the Products (the "Agreement"). The Agreement provided for a conclusion of the Company's arrangements with Clinigen effective September 30, 2019. Under the terms of the Agreement, Cumberland will no longer distribute the Products after the
transition date and will receive $5 million in financial consideration from Clinigen, paid over a two-year period. Cumberland agreed not to sell competing products during the same two-year period.
In September 2019, Clinigen and Cumberland completed an amendment to the Agreement, whereby the transition date was changed to late December 2019. Under the final terms of the amended Agreement, the Company returned the Product rights to Clinigen on December 31, 2019. Except for the Products' inventory as of December 31, 2019, no other operating assets and no liabilities were transferred to Clinigen.
The exit from the Ethyol and Totect Products meets the accounting criteria to be reported as discontinued operations. December 31, 2019, as the transition date, was the final day Cumberland was responsible for the Products. Cumberland was responsible for the Products through December 31, 2019 and beginning on January 1, 2020, the Products' rights transitioned back to Clinigen. As a result, January 1, 2020, was the first day of discontinued operations for the Ethyol and Totect products.
