Aus and Thread, without seeing the details of the transaction, I can only assume that the SNDK holdings in UMC were exchanged for stock in the acquiring company. While a "sale" for cash did not occur, it appears to be an exchange of shares for new shares, and thus it is correct to record the value of the new shares as a one-time gain, even if they aren't actually sold. This is another example of skilled management and management that is sensitive to shareholders.
