Discontinued Operations
 
In
August 2011,
the Company completed the sale of
the GDS Business to Devicor. We recorded net income of
$759,000
in
2015
related to royalty amounts earned based on
2015
GDS Business revenue. The royalty amount of
$1.2
million was offset by
$436,000
in estimated taxes which were allocated to discontinued operations.
 
On
March 3, 2017,
the Company completed the sale
to Cardinal Health
414
of its assets used, held for use, or intended to be used in operating its business of developing, manufacturing and commercializing a product used for lymphatic mapping, lymph node biopsy, and the diagnosis of metastatic spread to lymph nodes for staging of cancer, including the Company’s radioactive diagnostic agent marketed under the Lymphoseek
®
trademark for current approved indications by the FDA and similar indications approved by the FDA in the future, in Canada, Mexico and the United States. In exchange for the Acquired Assets, Cardinal Health
414
(i) made a cash payment to the Company at closing of approximately
$80.6
million after adjustments based on inventory being transferred and an advance of
$3.0
million of guaranteed earnout payments as part of the CRG settlement, (ii) assumed certain liabilities of the Company associated with the Product as specified in the Purchase Agreement, and (iii) agreed to make periodic earnout payments (to consist of contingent payments and milestone payments which, if paid, will be treated as additional purchase price) to the Company based on net sales derived from the purchased Product.
 
We recorded a net gain on the sale of the
Business of
$89.2
million for the year ended
December 31, 2017,
including
$16.5
million in guaranteed consideration, which was discounted to the present value of future cash flows. The proceeds were offset by
$3.3
million in estimated fair value of warrants issued to Cardinal Health
414,
$2.0
million in legal and other fees related to the sale,
$800,000
in net balance sheet dispositions and write-offs, and
$4.1
million in estimated taxes. The guaranteed consideration was recorded as a receivable, the balance of which is reduced as quarterly payments are received.
 
As a result of the
sale of the GDS Business to Devicor and the Asset Sale to Cardinal Health
414,
we reclassified certain assets and liabilities as assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations. The following assets and liabilities have been segregated and included in assets associated with discontinued operations or liabilities associated with discontinued operations, as appropriate, in the consolidated balance sheets:
