We account for acquisitions in accordance with FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), and goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”). For business combinations, the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination is recorded as goodwill.

In October 2023, we acquired a controlling interest of AGY, a luxury charter management agency based in Athens, Greece.

In June 2023, we acquired C&C Boat Works, a full-service boat dealer in Crosslake, Minnesota. In January 2023, we acquired Boatzon, a boat and marine digital retail platform, through our technology entity, New Wave Innovations. In December 2022, we acquired Midcoast Marine Group, a leading full-service marine construction Company based on Central Florida's Gulf Coast. These acquisitions were purchased for an aggregate consideration of approximately $49.0 million (net of cash acquired of $0.1 million), including estimated contingent consideration of $9.7 million. Tangible assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed and cash acquired, totaled approximately $20.3 million; intangible assets acquired totaled $1.9 million; and total goodwill recognized was approximately $26.8 million. The goodwill represents the assembled workforce, acquired capabilities, and future economic benefits resulting from the acquisitions. Approximately $13.6 million of goodwill related to these acquisitions is deductible for tax purposes.

In October 2022, we purchased all of the outstanding equity of IGY Marinas for an aggregate consideration of approximately $552.9 million (net of cash acquired of $28.1 million), including estimated contingent consideration of $67.7 million. Tangible assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed and cash acquired, totaled approximately $259.4 million; intangible assets acquired totaled $30.4 million; and total goodwill recognized was approximately $293.5 million. The goodwill represents the future economic benefits resulting from the acquisition. Approximately $193.3 million of goodwill related to this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes

In April 2022, through Northrop & Johnson, we acquired Superyacht Management, S.A.R.L., better known as SYM, a superyacht management company based in Golfe-Juan, France.

In total, current and previous acquisitions have resulted in the recording of $599.5 million and $614.8 million in goodwill and other intangible assets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, respectively. In accordance with ASC 350, we test goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Our annual impairment test is performed during the third fiscal quarter. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its fair value we recognize an impairment loss in accordance with ASC 350. As of December 31, 2023, and based upon our most recent analysis, we determined through our qualitative assessment that it is not “more likely than not” that the fair values of our reporting units are less than their carrying values. As a result, we did not perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test.
