Other Platform Investments During the fourth quarter of 2024, J.C. Penney completed an all-equity transaction where it acquired the retail operations of SPARC Group, resulting in the recognition of a non-cash pre-tax gain, our share of which was $100.5 million, which is included in (Loss) gain due to disposal, exchange, or revaluation of equity interests, net in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. The combined business was renamed Catalyst post transaction. This non-cash investment activity is excluded from our consolidated statement of cash flows. In connection with this transaction, we recorded deferred taxes of $25.1 million, which is included in income and other tax expense in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

During 2025, Catalyst recognized a net pre-tax loss on restructuring activities, our share of which was $9.4 million, which is included in (Loss) gain due to disposal, exchange, or revaluation of equity interests, net in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.
