The disposal group was recorded at its fair value less costs to sell, which resulted in a reversal of impairment of $74m. This is a level 3 fair value
measurement where fair value was derived using a closing cash payment of $76m and discounted real deferred consideration payments using a
real discount rate of 7%.
MSG forms part of the Americas segment and is not an operating segment on its own.
