Separation and Deconsolidation of Venator In August 2017, we separated our Titanium Dioxide and Performance Additives business (the 鈥淧&A Business鈥�) and conducted an initial public offering of ordinary shares of Venator Materials PLC (鈥淰enator鈥�), formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站. Following a series of public offerings and sales of Venator ordinary shares, beginning in December 2018, our ownership in Venator decreased to approximately 49%, and we began accounting for our remaining interest in Venator as an equity method investment using the fair value option. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded a loss $110 million and a gain of $75 million, respectively, to record our investment in Venator at fair value. These gains and losses were recorded in 鈥淔air value adjustments to Venator investment鈥� on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
