(3) Disposals On July 22, 2016, Liberty completed the CommerceHub Spin-Off. CommerceHub is included in the Corporate and other segment through July 22, 2016 and is not presented as a discontinued operation as the CommerceHub Spin-Off did not represent a strategic shift that had a major effect on Liberty’s operations and financial results. Included in revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations is $22 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to CommerceHub. Included in net earnings (loss) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are losses of $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to CommerceHub. On November 4, 2016, Liberty completed the Expedia Holdings Split-Off. At the time of the Expedia Holdings Split-Off, Expedia Holdings was comprised of, among other things, Liberty’s former interest in Expedia and Liberty’s former wholly-owned subsidiary Bodybuilding. Liberty views Expedia and Bodybuilding as separate components and evaluated them separately for discontinued operations presentation. Based on a quantitative analysis, the Expedia Holdings Split-Off represents a strategic shift that has a major effect on Liberty’s operations, primarily due to prior year one-time gains on transactions recognized by Expedia. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Liberty have been prepared to reflect Liberty’s interest in Expedia as a discontinued operation. The disposition of Bodybuilding as part of the Expedia Holdings Split-Off does not have a major effect on Liberty’s historical results nor is it expected to have a major effect on Liberty’s future operations. The disposition of Bodybuilding does not represent a strategic shift in Liberty’s operations. Accordingly, Bodybuilding is not presented as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Liberty. Bodybuilding is included in the Corporate and other segment through November 4, 2016. Included in revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations is $116 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to Bodybuilding. Included in net earnings (loss) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are earnings of $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to Bodybuilding. Certain financial information for Liberty’s investment in Expedia, which is included in the discontinued operations line items of the consolidated Liberty balance sheets as of March 31, 2016, is as follows:
The impact from discontinued operations on basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share is as follows:
