Discontinued Operations 
On December 22, 2015, the Company completed the Company's sale of substantially all of the assets, the goodwill and ongoing business comprising the Company’s Commercial Services segment, or the Commercial Services Business, to Publicis Healthcare Solutions, Inc., formerly known as Publicis Touchpoint Solutions, Inc., or the Buyer, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2015, by and between the Buyer and the Company, or the Asset Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate cash purchase price at the closing of approximately $28.5 million, or the Closing Purchase Price, subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment, and the assumption by the Buyer of certain specified liabilities. The Closing Purchase Price includes a $25.5 million cash payment, or the Base Cash Payment, and an estimated closing date working capital adjustment cash payment of $3 million. Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company is also entitled to receive an earn-out payment in 2017 equal to one-third of the 2016 revenues generated by the Commercial Services Business under certain specified contracts and client relationships, less the amount of the Base Cash Payment. Based on the current projection, the Company did not record any receivable relating to such earn-out payment.
The Company used the net proceeds from the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement to pay the balance of the outstanding loan under the Credit Agreement and related fees, as described further in Note 21, Long-Term Debt. The Company intends to use the remaining net proceeds to fund its future business activities, including its molecular diagnostics business, and for general working capital purposes.
In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement, on December 22, 2015, the Company entered into a transition services agreement with the Buyer, pursuant to which the Company will provide certain services to the Buyer for up to six months following the closing, and a restrictive covenant agreement with the Buyer, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will be prohibited from competing with the Commercial Services Business until December 31, 2020.
The Asset Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to change its name, and, as a result the Company changed its name from “PDI, Inc.” to “Interpace Diagnostics Group, Inc.”

* Does not include $0.2 million gain on sale of the Group DCA business in 2015
As a result of the sale, the gain on sale and all operations from Commercial Services have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. On December 31, 2014, the Company classified Group DCA as held-for-sale and wrote the assets of the business down to their fair values as the assets have become impaired. In the first quarter of 2015, the Company recorded a gain on sale of its Group DCA business of $0.2 million. On December 29, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to sell certain assets of its Pharmakon business unit to Informed Medical Communications, Inc. Informed in exchange for potential future royalty payments and an ownership interest in Informed. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company wrote-off all of the assets related to the sale of Pharmakon to Informed as it believes that these assets have become impaired. On July 19, 2010, the Board approved closing the TVG business unit. The Company notified employees and issued a press release announcing this decision on July 20, 2010. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss reflect the presentation of Commercial Services, Group DCA, Pharmakon, and TVG as discontinued operations in all periods presented.

The table below presents the significant components of Commercial Services, Group DCA's, Pharmakon's and TVG’s results included in Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
