NOTE 3. RUSSIAN OPERATIONS
On March 17, 2022, the Board of Directors (the Board) decided to indefinitely suspend our operations in Russia due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. At the time of suspension, our Russian operations included a wholly-owned distributor in Russia, an unconsolidated joint venture and direct sales into Russia from our other business units. As a result of the suspension of operations, we evaluated the recoverability of assets in Russia and assessed other liabilities that may have been incurred. We have experienced and expect to continue to experience, an inability to collect customer receivables and may be the subject of litigation in connection with our suspension of commercial operations in Russia. We will continue to evaluate the situation as conditions evolve and may take additional actions as deemed necessary in future periods. The following summarizes the costs associated with the suspension of our Russian operations in our first quarter results on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income:
