Discontinued Operations
On December 19, 2012, the Company completed the contribution of its equity interests in its wholly owned subsidiary, Two Harbors Property Investment LLC, to Silver Bay. Two Harbors Property Investment LLC previously held the Company’s portfolio of single-family rental properties. Because the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in Two Harbors Property Investment LLC, all of the associated operating results were removed from continuing operations and are presented separately as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
Summarized financial information for the discontinued operations are presented below.

In addition to the gain on contribution of entity that was recorded in 2012 in connection with the closing of the contribution, certain adjustments were agreed to be recognized in 2013. These include an installment sales gain of approximately $4.0 million from Silver Bay, a reduction of 2013 management fees payable to PRCM Advisers of $4.3 million, and an immaterial amount of additional working capital adjustments determined in accordance with the contribution agreement entered into with Silver Bay. Of these amounts, $1.2 million of the installment sales gain was recorded as a gain on contribution of entity within discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and the full $4.3 million of the reduction of 2013 management fees payable to PRCM Advisers was recorded within management fees, on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The remaining $0.1 million recorded within discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 relates to accrual adjustments for transaction expenses related to the contribution.
