Acquisitions
5. ACQUISITIONS:
The results of operations of acquired businesses have been included in Quanta’s consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates.
In April 2024, Quanta acquired a business located in the United States that manufactures transmission and distribution equipment for the electric utility industry. The aggregate consideration paid or payable for this transaction was approximately $72 million, consisting of a combination of cash and shares of Quanta common stock. The final amount of consideration also remains subject to certain post-closing adjustments, including with respect to net working capital.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Quanta acquired three businesses located in the United States, including: a business that provides specialty environmental solutions to industrial and petrochemical companies (primarily included in the Underground and Infrastructure segment); a business that specializes in testing, manufacturing and distributing safety equipment and supplies (primarily included in the Electric Power and Renewable Energy segments); and a business that specializes in electrical infrastructure services for substations, data centers and governmental entities (primarily included in the Electric Power segment). The consideration for the businesses acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2024
consisted of approximately $382.9 million paid or payable in cash on the acquisition dates and 250,539 shares of Quanta common stock, which had a fair value of $51.8 million as of the acquisition dates. The final amount of consideration for these acquisitions remains subject to certain post-closing adjustments, including with respect to net working capital.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, Quanta acquired five businesses located in the United States, including: a business that provides services related to high-voltage transmission lines, overhead and underground distribution, emergency restoration and industrial and commercial wiring and lighting (primarily included in the Electric Power segment); a business that procures parts, assembles kits for sale, manages logistics and installs solar tracking equipment for utility and development customers (primarily included in the Renewable Energy segment); a business that provides concrete construction services (primarily included in the Electric Power and Renewable Energy segments); a business specializing in power studies, maintenance testing and commissioning primarily for utility and commercial customers (included in the Electric Power segment) and a business that manufactures power transformers for the electric utility, renewable energy, municipal power and industrial markets (included in the Electric Power and Renewable Energy segments). The consideration for these transactions consisted of approximately $785.7 million paid or payable in cash (subject to certain adjustments) and 1,238,576 shares of Quanta common stock, which had a fair value of $158.9 million as of the dates of the acquisitions.
Additionally, the former owners of certain acquired businesses are eligible to receive potential payments of contingent consideration to the extent the acquired businesses achieve certain financial performance targets over specified post-acquisition periods.
Purchase Price Allocation
Quanta is finalizing its purchase price allocations related to certain businesses acquired subsequent to March 31, 2023, and further adjustments to the purchase price allocations may occur, with possible updates primarily related to intangible asset values, property and equipment values, certain contingent liabilities, tax estimates, and the finalization of closing working capital adjustments. The aggregate consideration paid or payable for businesses acquired between March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 was allocated to acquired assets and assumed liabilities, which resulted in an allocation of $194.2 million to net tangible assets, $207.8 million to identifiable intangible assets and $403.4 million to goodwill.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of total consideration transferred or estimated to be transferred and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of their respective acquisition dates as of March 31, 2024 for
acquisitions completed in the three months ended March 31, 2024 (in thousands):

Contingent Consideration
As described above, certain business acquisitions have contingent consideration liabilities associated with the transactions. The aggregate fair value of these outstanding contingent consideration liabilities was $172.0 million and $157.1 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and such amounts are included in “Insurance and other non-current liabilities.”
Quanta’s aggregate contingent consideration liabilities can change due to additional business acquisitions, settlement of outstanding liabilities, accretion in present value, changes in estimated fair value, the performance of acquired businesses in post-acquisition periods, and in certain cases, management discretion. These changes are reflected in “Change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The fair value determinations for contingent consideration liabilities incorporate significant inputs not observable in the market, including revenue forecasts, operating margins, discount rates and the probability of acquired businesses achieving certain performance targets during designated post-acquisition periods. Accordingly, the level of inputs used for these fair value measurements is Level 3.
All of Quanta’s outstanding contingent consideration liabilities are subject to a maximum payment amount, and the aggregate maximum payment amount of these liabilities totaled $352.6 million as of March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, Quanta settled certain contingent consideration liabilities with cash payments of $5.0 million.
Pro Forma Results of Operations
The following unaudited supplemental pro forma results of operations for Quanta, which incorporate the acquisitions completed in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, have been provided for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by the combined companies for the periods presented or that may be achieved by the combined companies in the future (in thousands).

Net income attributable to common stock$118,213 $86,670 
The pro forma combined results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were prepared by adjusting the historical results of Quanta to include the historical results of the businesses acquired in 2024 as if such acquisitions had occurred January 1, 2023. The pro forma combined results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were prepared by further adjusting the historical results of Quanta to include the historical results of the business acquired in 2023 as if such acquisition had occurred January 1, 2022. These pro forma combined historical results were adjusted for the following: a reduction of interest and other financing expenses as a result of the repayment of outstanding indebtedness of the acquired businesses; an increase in interest and other financing expenses as a result of the cash consideration paid; an increase in amortization expense due to the intangible assets recorded; elimination of inter-company sales; and changes in depreciation expense to adjust acquired property and equipment to the acquisition date fair value and to conform with Quanta’s accounting policies. The pro forma combined results of operations do not include any adjustments to eliminate the impact of acquisition-related costs incurred by Quanta or any cost savings or other synergies that resulted or may result from the acquisitions.
