| Item 2.01. |
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
On December 12, 2019, Genworth Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the previously disclosed disposition of its Canada mortgage insurance business to Falcon Holding LP, an affiliate of Brookfield Business Partners L.P. The adjusted sales price was approximately CAD$2.3 billion in cash, or approximately USD$1.7 billion using the derivative foreign exchange rate of 0.7590 established to hedge the sale transaction. Prior to sale closing, the Company also received a special dividend from its Canada mortgage insurance business of approximately USD$0.1 billion. This special dividend, along with the net cash proceeds received upon closing of USD$1.7 billion totaled approximately USD$1.8 billion.
During the third quarter of 2019, the sale of the Canada mortgage insurance business met the held for sale accounting criteria and the business was reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures within its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2019. In connection with the accounting of the business as held for sale, the Company recorded an after-tax loss of $164 million related to the sale of the Canada mortgage insurance business. The Company will also reflect any revisions to the loss on sale in the fourth quarter of 2019, based on the finalization of its post-closing adjustments.
The Company is including in this report the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 giving effect to the net proceeds and sale of the assets and liabilities. In addition, as the Company has not yet filed its 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is including in this report the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 giving effect to the sale.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet of Genworth Financial, Inc. as of September 30, 2019 and notes thereto and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income of Genworth Financial, Inc. for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and notes thereto are filed as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference herein.
In connection with but prior to the disposition of its Canada mortgage insurance business, the Company completed an internal reorganization whereby the Company contributed 100% of its ownership interest in Genworth Mortgage Holdings, Inc. (“GMHI”) to Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”). As a result of this contribution, Genworth Holdings now owns 100% of GMHI, which owns 100% of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company’s U.S. mortgage insurance companies, including Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corporation.
The foregoing description of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, dated August 12, 2019, by and among the Company, Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC, Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corporation, Brookfield BBP Canada Holdings Inc. and Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (the “Purchase Agreement”), does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference.
