Highlight of Business Operations:
Prior to June 2010, we had three reportable segments, Customer Management, Information Management and Human Resources Management (HR Management). In March 2010, we signed a definitive agreement to sell the HR Management line of business to NorthgateArinso, the Human Resources division of Northgate Information Solutions Limited, for approximately $100, with $85 in cash at closing and $15 in cash over three years. The sale substantially closed on June 1, 2010, for which we received approximately $80 in cash as well as a zero coupon note in the principal amount of $15. The completion of the sale of certain foreign operations of the HR Management business completed during the third and fourth quarters of 2010, resulted in a receipt of an additional $5 in cash. Final settlement of working capital adjustments resulted in cash payments to NorthgateArinso of approximately $7 during the fourth quarter of 2010. As a result of the sale of the HR Management line of business, the operating results and assets and liabilities related to HR Management have been reflected as discontinued operations for all periods presented.We intend to continue to emphasize the design, development and deployment of scalable billing and customer management systems to increase our market share, both domestically and internationally.
