5. ACQUISITIONS

We had no significant acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

In 2018, we acquired a business providing downhole technologies associated with perforating systems for $48.9 million in cash. These downhole technologies will significantly enhance Core Lab's Production Enhancement operations and its ability to bring new and innovative product offerings to our clients. We finalized the fair value assessment of the assets acquired during the third quarter of 2019. We have determined the fair value of tangible assets acquired to be $4.1 million, and intangible assets, including patents, customer-relationship benefits, non-compete agreements and trade secrets to be $9.4 million. We have accounted for this acquisition by allocating the purchase price to the net assets acquired based on their fair values at the date of acquisition which resulted in an increase to goodwill of $35.4 million. The acquisition is included in the Production Enhancement business segment.
