Discontinued Operations

In the third quarter of Fiscal 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved management's plan to sell Shanghai LongFong Foods ("LongFong"), a maker of frozen products in China which was previously reported in the Asia/Pacific segment. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2013, the Company secured an agreement with a buyer and expects the sale to close during the first quarter of Fiscal 2014. As a result, LongFong's net assets were classified as held for sale and the Company adjusted the carrying value to estimated fair value, recording a $36.0 million pre-tax and after-tax non-cash goodwill impairment charge to discontinued operations during the third quarter of Fiscal 2013. The net assets held for sale related to LongFong as of April 28, 2013 are reported in Other current assets, Other non-current assets, Other accrued liabilities and Other non-current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of April 28, 2013 as they are not material for separate balance sheet presentation.
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2013, the Company completed the sale of its U.S. Foodservice frozen desserts business, resulting in a $32.7 million pre-tax ($21.1 million after-tax) loss which has been recorded in discontinued operations.
The operating results related to these businesses have been included in discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated statements of income for all periods presented. The following table presents summarized operating results for these discontinued operations:
