BUSINESS COMBINATIONS BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Cellero, LLC
On August 6, 2020, the Company acquired Cellero, LLC (Cellero), a provider of cellular products for cell therapy developers and manufacturers worldwide. The addition of Cellero enhances the Company’s unique, comprehensive solutions for the high-growth cell therapy market, strengthening the ability to help accelerate clients’ critical programs from basic research and proof-of-concept to regulatory approval and commercialization. It also expands the Company’s access to high-quality, human-derived biomaterials with Cellero’s donor sites in the United States. The purchase price for Cellero was $37.5 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments that may change the purchase price. The acquisition was funded through cash on hand. This business is reported as part of the Company’s RMS reportable segment.

The preliminary purchase price allocation of $37.0 million, net of $0.5 million of cash acquired was as follows:

The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change as additional information becomes available concerning the fair value and tax basis of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including certain contracts and obligations. Any additional adjustments to the purchase price allocation will be made as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

Total definite-lived intangible assets$16,230 12
The goodwill resulting from the transaction, $10.8 million of which is deductible for tax purposes due to a prior asset acquisition, is primarily attributable to the potential growth of the Company’s RMS business from customers introduced through Cellero and the assembled workforce of the acquired business.
The Company incurred transaction and integration costs in connection with the acquisition of $2.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, which was primarily included in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.
Pro forma financial information as well as the disclosure of actual revenue and operating income (loss) have not been included because Cellero's financial results are not significant when compared to the Company’s consolidated financial results.
