On February 28, 2023, we completed the sale of our textile chemicals and dyes business (“Textile Effects Business”) to Archroma, a portfolio company of SK Capital Partners, and during the first quarter of 2024, we finalized the purchase price valued at $597 million, which included adjustments to the purchase price for working capital, plus the assumption of underfunded pension liabilities. During the first half of 2025, net charges of our discontinued operations were not material.
