Lacuna Acquisition
On February 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Lacuna Diagnostics, Inc. ("Lacuna"), a veterinary digital cytology company, to broaden the Company's point of care diagnostic offerings. The Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Lacuna for a purchase price of $4.3 million. The Company then dissolved Lacuna on February 1, 2021. In accordance with the purchase agreement, the Company is required to hold a $0.4 million general indemnity holdback that is intended to provide a non-exclusive source of funds for the payment of any losses identified and shall be released within 18 months of closing. As of June 30, 2021, $0.4 million of the indemnification holdback remains outstanding. As additional consideration for the shares, the Company agreed to a contingent earn-out of an additional $2.0 million based on the achievement of certain performance metrics within a twelve month period ("Initial Earn Out Period"), reducing to $1.0 million if such metrics were met in a twelve month period subsequent to the Initial Earn Out Period. The fair value of the contingent consideration as of the acquisition date was $1.7 million.
The total purchase consideration exceeded the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, resulting in $3.9 million of goodwill, primarily related to expanded opportunities with our offerings. All of the goodwill is allocated to the North America segment and is not tax deductible for income tax purposes.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805. As such, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of February 1, 2021.

scil Acquisition
On April 1, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of scil animal care company GmbH (“scil”) from Covetrus, Inc. The Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of scil for an aggregate price of $110.3 million in cash. The acquisition represents a key milestone in the Company's long-term strategic plan, creating a global veterinary diagnostics company with leadership positions in key geographic markets. The purchase price exceeded the identifiable net assets, resulting in goodwill of $46.0 million, primarily attributable to the synergies expected from the expanded market opportunities with our offerings and the experienced workforce acquired. Of the goodwill acquired, $37.3 million is allocated to our International segment and $8.7 million is allocated to our North America segment. All of the goodwill is tax deductible for purposes of calculating Controlled Foreign Corporation tested income, which may result in a decrease to the Company's future U.S. federal tax liability.

The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. As such, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of April 1, 2020.
