Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On July 2, 2015, Mondelēz International, Inc. completed transactions to combine our wholly owned coffee businesses (including our coffee portfolio in France) with those of D.E Master Blenders 1753 B.V. (“DEMB”) to create a new company, Jacobs Douwe Egberts (“JDE”).

Upon closing, the consideration we received for our coffee businesses was €3.8 billion ($4.2 billion U.S. dollars as of July 2, 2015) and a 43.5 percent equity interest in JDE. Acorn Holdings B.V., owner of DEMB, holds a 56.5% share in JDE. The cash and equity consideration we received was adjusted from previous estimates to reflect our retaining our interest in a Korea-based joint venture, Dongsuh Foods Corporation. During the second quarter of 2015, we also completed the sale of our interest in a Japanese coffee joint venture, Ajinomoto General Foods, Inc. (“AGF”). In lieu of contributing our interest in the AGF joint venture to JDE, we contributed the net cash proceeds from the sale, and the transaction did not change the consideration received for our global coffee businesses.

The total amount of cash and equity consideration we expect to receive is subject to further adjustment based on the final valuation, net assets and shares in our businesses contributed to JDE and final sales price adjustments. We expect to finalize the sales price and related adjustments by the end of the second quarter of 2016. As a result, the final amount of consideration we receive and the gain we recognize on the divestiture may change materially until we conclude these matters.

Following the transactions, Mondelēz International is an even more focused snacking company, with approximately 85% of net revenues derived from biscuits, chocolate, gum and candy. By retaining a significant stake in JDE, we will also continue to have a significant contribution from the coffee category. We plan to reflect our divested historical coffee results and future equity earnings from JDE in results from continuing operations as the coffee category continues to be a significant part of our strategy and net earnings.

Our unaudited pro forma financial information giving effect to the divestiture of our global coffee business is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 2, 2015, we and DEMB issued a joint press release announcing the completion of the coffee business transactions. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.2.
