Note 10 : Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
We completed six acquisitions in 2020 and five acquisitions in 2019, all of which qualified as business combinations. The consideration for the acquisitions in 2020 and 2019 primarily consisted of cash and was allocated to goodwill and identified intangible assets. For information on the assignment of goodwill to our operating segments, see "Note 11: Goodwill," and for information on the classification of intangible assets, see "Note 12: Identified Intangible Assets."
Moovit
On May 4, 2020, we acquired Moovit, a MaaS solutions company, for total consideration of $915 million. The fair values of the assets acquired relate to goodwill of $638 million and intangible assets of $331 million. The goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributed to the expected synergies and other benefits that will be generated from the combination of Intel and Moovit. We expect substantially all of the goodwill will not be deductible for local tax purposes. The acquisition-related intangible assets are primarily related to Moovit's monthly active user base and application platform. The goodwill and operating results of Moovit are included in our Mobileye operating segment.
Habana Labs
On December 12, 2019, we acquired Habana Labs, an Israel-based developer of programmable deep learning accelerators targeting AI workloads in the data center, for total consideration of $1.7 billion. Habana Labs strengthens our AI portfolio and accelerates our efforts to capitalize on the nascent, fast-growing AI silicon market opportunity. The fair values of the assets acquired relate to goodwill of $1.5 billion and acquisition-related intangible assets of $250 million. The goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributed to the expected synergies and other benefits that will be generated from the combination of Intel and Habana Labs. We expect substantially all of the goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes. The acquisition-related intangible assets are primarily related to in-process R&D. The goodwill and operating results of Habana Labs are included in our DCG operating segment.
Divestitures
NAND Memory Business
On October 19, 2020, we signed an agreement with SK hynix Inc. (SK hynix) to divest our NAND memory business, including our NAND memory fabrication facility in Dalian, China and certain related equipment and tangible assets (the Fab Assets), our NAND SSD business (the NAND SSD Business), and our NAND memory technology and manufacturing business (the NAND OpCo Business). Our Intel Optane memory business is expressly excluded from the transaction. The transaction will occur over two closings for total consideration of $9.0 billion in cash, of which $7.0 billion will be received upon initial closing, not to occur prior to November 1, 2021, and the remaining $2.0 billion will be received no earlier than March 2025. The consummations of the first closing and the second closing are subject to customary conditions, including the receipt of certain governmental approvals.
At the first closing, Intel will sell to SK hynix the Fab Assets and the NAND SSD Business, and SK hynix will assume from Intel certain liabilities related to the Fab Assets and the NAND SSD Business. In connection with the first closing, we and certain affiliates of SK hynix will also enter into a NAND wafer manufacturing and sale agreement pursuant to which we will manufacture and sell to SK hynix NAND memory wafers to be manufactured using the Fab Assets in Dalian, China, until the second closing.
We will transfer certain employees, IP, and other assets related to the NAND OpCo Business to separately created, wholly owned subsidiaries of Intel at the first closing. The equity interest of these wholly owned subsidiaries will transfer to SK hynix at the second closing. We have concluded based on the terms of the transaction agreements that the subsidiaries will be variable interest entities for which we are not the primary beneficiary, and accordingly will deconsolidate at the first closing.
The carrying amounts of the major classes of NAND assets held for sale included the following:
(In Millions) Dec 26, 2020
Inventories $ 962 
Property, plant and equipment, net 4,363 
Total assets held for sale $ 5,325 
We ceased recording depreciation on property, plant and equipment as of the date the assets triggered held for sale accounting. Additional capital purchases of approximately $1.8 billion expected prior to first close will be classified as assets held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and within additions to held for sale NAND property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Home Gateway Platform Division
On July 31, 2020, we completed the divestiture of the majority of Home Gateway Platform, a division of CCG, for proceeds of $150 million. The divestiture included the transfer of certain employees, equipment, and an ongoing supply agreement for future units.
Smartphone Modem Business
On December 2, 2019, we completed the divestiture of the majority of our smartphone modem business, including certain employees, IP, equipment, and leases. Net assets sold were $267 million. We recognized a pre-tax gain of $690 million on the divestiture.
Wind River
During the second quarter of 2018, we completed the divestiture of Wind River and recognized a pre-tax gain of $494 million.
