Liquidmetal Technologies Inc (LQMT)

[Out The Window]

"Gain on disposal of subsidiaries. Gain on disposal of subsidiaries of $12.1 million, for the year ended December 31, 2011 was due to the sale of Advanced Metals Materials (“AMM”), our China subsidiary, the sale of Liquidmetal Technologies, Korea (“LMTK”), our Korea subsidiary, and the divestment of Liquidmetal Coatings (“LMC”), our Coatings subsidiary. The gain on disposal was mainly attributed to the write-off of net liabilities of $10.7 million related to LMC upon deconsolidation and $2.9 million net write-off of investments in AMM and LMC and foreign exchange translation related to LMTK offset by a $1.4 million of loss from write-off of investment and net assets in LMTK. Our gains on disposals of our subsidiaries were mainly the result of write-offs of assets and liability accounts and did not impact our cash position."
