The purchase price for the Transaction was $725 million in cash, and we expect to recognize a gain on the divestiture of approximately $395 million. The Transaction closed in accordance with the terms of the stock purchase agreement entered into on September 29, 2019. On September 6, 2019, Masco completed the sale of the UK Window Group (“UKWG”). We determined that the combined sale of Milgard and UKWG represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results, as these businesses represented all of our windows businesses and all remaining businesses in the Windows and Other Specialty Products segment. As a result, we believe including UKWG as part of the pro forma financial statements is appropriate and more meaningful than solely depicting the Milgard divestiture, as the pro forma financial statements reflect Masco’s financial results excluding all of the results of our windows businesses.
