Newmar Corporation

On November 8, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated September 15, 2019 (the "Purchase Agreement"), Winnebago completed the acquisition of 100% of Newmar Corporation, Dutch Real Estate Corp., New-Way Transport, and New-Serv (collectively “Newmar”). Newmar is a leading manufacturer of Class A and Super C motorized recreation vehicles that are sold through an established network of independent authorized dealers throughout North America.
 
The following table summarizes the total consideration paid for Newmar, noting that it is subject to purchase price adjustments as stipulated in the Purchase Agreement:

(in thousands)November 8, 2019
Cash$264,433  
Winnebago Industries shares: 2,000,000 at $46.29
92,572  
Total$357,005  

The cash portion of the purchase price of the acquisition and certain transaction expenses were funded through the private placement of convertible senior notes (as further described in Note 9, Long-Term Debt) and cash on hand. The stock consideration was discounted by 7.0% due to lack of marketability because of the one year lock-up restrictions.

The total purchase price was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of Newmar acquired, based on their fair values at the date of the acquisition. The Company believes that the information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values. During the third quarter of Fiscal 2020, the Company finalized the valuation and completed the purchase price allocation, which included purchase price adjustments of $3.3 million. The following table summarizes the fair values assigned to the Newmar net assets acquired and the determination of net assets:

Deferred tax liabilities968  
Total liabilities assumed52,432  
Total purchase price$357,005  

The goodwill, recognized in the Company's Motorhome segment, is primarily attributable to the value of the workforce, reputation of founders, customer and dealer growth opportunities, and expected synergies. Key areas of cost synergies include increased purchasing power for raw materials and supply chain consolidation. Goodwill is expected to be mostly deductible for tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the other intangible assets acquired:
($ in thousands)November 8, 2019Useful Life-Years
Trade name$98,000  Indefinite
Dealer network64,000  12.0
Backlog8,800  0.5
Non-compete agreements1,300  5.0

The fair value of the trade name and dealer network were estimated using an income approach. Under the income approach, an intangible asset's fair value is equal to the present value of the future economic benefits to be derived from ownership of the asset. The fair value of the trade name was estimated using an income approach, specifically the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method is based on the hypothetical royalty stream that would be received if we were to license the trade name and was based on expected revenues. The fair value of the trade name was estimated using an income approach, specifically the cost
to recreate/cost saving method. This method uses the replacement of the asset as an indicator of the fair value of the asset. The useful life of the intangibles was determined considering the expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the intangible assets adjusted for the entity-specific factors including legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors that may limit the useful life of intangible assets. On the acquisition date, amortizable intangible assets had a weighted-average useful life of approximately 10.5 years.

The results of Newmar's operations have been included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the close of the acquisition within the Motorhome segment. The following table provides net revenues and operating income from the Newmar operating segment included in the Company's consolidated results following the November 8, 2019 closing date:

The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that the Company would have achieved had the transaction actually taken place at the beginning of Fiscal 2019, and the unaudited pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of future financial operating results. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information does not reflect any operating efficiencies and cost savings that may be realized from the integration of the acquisition.

Transaction costs related to the Newmar acquisition were $10.6 million, of which $10.0 million were expensed during the first quarter of Fiscal 2020 and $0.6 million were expensed during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019. Transaction costs are included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
