Loss

  
Baker Hughes CompanyNotes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statementscountries enacted sanctions against Russia and certain Russian interests. On March 19, 2022, we suspended any new investments in our Russia operations but attempted to continue to fulfill our contractual obligations while complying with all applicable laws and regulations. Over the course of the second quarter of 2022, we closely monitored the developments in Ukraine and Russia and changes to sanctions all of which continued to make ongoing operations increasingly complex and significantly more challenging. As a result, in the second quarter of 2022, we committed to a plan to sell our Oilfield Services Russia business. See “Note 18. Businesses Held for Sale” for further information. In addition, given that some of our activities are prohibited under applicable sanctions and almost all of our activities are unsustainable in the current environment, we took actions to suspend substantially all of our operational activities related to Russia. These actions resulted in other charges of $334 million recorded in the second quarter of 2022 primarily associated with the suspension of contracts including all our TPS LNG contracts, and the impairment of assets consisting primarily of contract assets, PP&E and reserve for accounts receivable. In addition to these charges, we recorded inventory impairments in the second quarter of 2022 of $31 million primarily in TPS as part of suspending our Russia operations, which are reported in the “Cost of goods sold” caption in the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss).During the three months ended September 30, 2021, there were no other charges incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we incurred other charges of $75 million primarily related to certain litigation matters in our TPS segment and the release of foreign currency translation adjustments for certain restructured product lines in our DS segment.NOTE 18. BUSINESSES HELD FOR SALEThe Company classifies assets and liabilities as held for sale (“disposal group”) when management commits to a plan to sell the disposal group and concludes that it meets the relevant criteria. Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Any loss resulting from the measurement is recognized in the period the held for sale criteria are met. Conversely, gains are not recognized until the date of sale.During the second quarter of 2022, the OFS Russia business met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and was measured and reported at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, which resulted in the recognition of a loss of $426 million, which included foreign currency translation adjustment gains partially offset by costs associated with selling the business. The loss was recorded in “Other non-operating loss, net” in our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). On August 1, 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell our OFS Russia business to our local management. As of September 30, 2022, the OFS Russia business continues to meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. We expect to complete the sale by the end of 2022 subject to regulatory approval.In July 2022, we entered into an agreement with GE to sell our Nexus Controls business, a product line in our Digital Solutions segment, specializing in scalable industrial controls systems, safety systems, hardware, and software cybersecurity solutions and services. Based on preliminary estimates, the carrying value is expected to approximate the fair value of the business, less costs to sell. We expect to complete the sale in mid-2023 subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approvals.  Baker Hughes Company 2022 Third Quarter Form 10-Q | 27
