Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

The Company uses acquisitions as a strategy to grow its customer base by increasing its presence in new and existing markets, expand and diversify its service offerings, enhance its technology, and acquire skilled personnel.

2023 Acquisitions

The Company completed two immaterial Digital Media acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2023, paying the purchase price in cash in each transaction.

The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations since the date of each acquisition and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023, reflect the results of operations of the 2023 acquisitions. The initial accounting for the 2023 acquisitions is incomplete due to timing of available information and is subject to change. The Company has recorded provisional amounts which may be based upon past acquisitions with similar attributes for certain intangible assets (including trade names and customer relationships), preliminary acquisition date working capital, and related tax items.

Goodwill recognized associated with these acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $6.6 million, all of which is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Approximately $7.2 million of definite-lived intangibles were recorded in connection with the acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

2022 Acquisitions

The Company completed the following acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2022, paying the purchase price in cash in each transaction: (a) a purchase of 100% of equity interests of Lifecycle Marketing Group Limited, acquired on January 21, 2022, a United Kingdom-based portfolio of pregnancy and parenting brands, including Emma’s Diary and Health Professional Academy, reported within our Digital Media segment; (b) a purchase of 100% of equity interests of FitNow, Inc, acquired on June 2, 2022, a Massachusetts-based provider of weight loss products and support, reported within our Digital Media segment; and (c) two other immaterial Digital Media acquisitions. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the purchase price accounting was finalized for these acquisitions.

The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations since the date of each acquisition reflects the results of operations of all 2022 acquisitions. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, these acquisitions contributed $7.4 million to the Company’s revenues. Net income contributed by these acquisitions was not separately identifiable due to the Company’s integration activities and is impracticable to provide. Total consideration for these transactions was $107.1 million, net of cash acquired and assumed liabilities.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase consideration for all 2022 acquisitions as of June 30, 2022 (in thousands):
