  2. Discontinued Operations

 

In 2009, the Company's Board of Directors decided to discontinue the operations of our Cardiosonix subsidiary and hold the assets for sale, based on the determination that the blood flow measurement device segment was no longer considered a strategic initiative of the Company. The operations of Cardiosonix were effectively wound down during 2011.

 

In 2011, our Board of Directors and our stockholders approved the sale of the GDS Business as well as the disposal of the related extended warranty contracts to Devicor for a net purchase price of $30.3 million.

 

As a result, we reclassified revenues and expenses related to the GDS Business and our Cardiosonix subsidiary to discontinued operations. The following amounts have been segregated from continuing operations and included in discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations:
