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
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 subject, in each case, to Cardinal Health
414’s
right to off-set. In
no
event will the sum of all earnout payments, as further described in the Purchase Agreement, exceed
$230
million over a period of
ten
years, of which
$20.1
million are guaranteed payments of
$6.7
million per year for each of the
three
years immediately after closing of the Asset Sale. At the closing of the Asset Sale,
$3
million of such earnout payments were advanced by Cardinal Health
414
to the Company, and paid to CRG as part of the Deposit Amount paid to CRG. This advance is to be applied to the
third
year of guaranteed payments.
 
We recorded a net gain on the sale of the
Business of
$86.9
 million for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2017,
including
$16.5
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
$6.4
 million in estimated taxes.
 
As a result of the
Asset Sale, 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:
