Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

The Company accounted for each acquisition set forth below using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company recorded the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the applicable date of acquisition. Since the applicable date of acquisition, the Company has revised the allocation of the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on analysis of information that has been made available through December 31, 2023. The allocations will continue to be updated through the measurement period, if necessary. The goodwill recognized for these acquisitions is attributable to expected growth as the Company leverages its brand and diversifies its services offered to clients, including potential revenue growth and margin expansion. The Company recognizes acquisition-related costs in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For each acquisition, the Company did not incur any material acquisition-related costs.

MSDR Acquisition

On November 30, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of MSI Systems Corp. and DrWanted.com LLC (together, “MSDR”), two healthcare staffing companies that specialize in locum tenens and advanced practice. The initial purchase price of $292,818 consisted entirely of cash consideration paid upon acquisition. The acquisition was funded through borrowings under the Company’s $750,000 secured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”), provided for under the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined in Note (8) below). The results of MSDR have been included in the Company’s physician and leadership solutions segment since the date of acquisition.

The preliminary allocation of the $292,818 purchase price consisted of (1) $49,584 of fair value of tangible assets acquired, which included $643 cash received, (2) $24,536 of liabilities assumed, (3) $92,000 of identified intangible assets, and (4) $175,770 of goodwill, of which $88,961 is deductible for tax purposes. The provisional items include the final working capital settlement and the assessment of additional information to finalize the measurement of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which primarily consist of income tax matters, operating leases, accrued expenses and insurance reserves. The intangible assets acquired have a weighted average useful life of approximately seven years. The following table summarizes the fair value and useful life of each intangible asset acquired as of the acquisition date:

Synzi and SnapMD Acquisition

On April 7, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Synzi Holdings, Inc. (“Synzi”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, SnapMD, LLC (“SnapMD”). Synzi is a virtual care communication platform that enables organizations to conduct virtual visits and use secure messaging, text, and email for clinician-to-patient and clinician-to-clinician communications. SnapMD is a full-service virtual care management company, specializing in providing software to enable healthcare providers to better engage with their patients. The initial purchase price of $42,240 consisted entirely of cash consideration paid upon acquisition. The acquisition was funded primarily through borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. The results of Synzi and SnapMD have been included in the Company’s technology and workforce solutions segment since the date of acquisition. During the second quarter of 2021, $92 was returned to the Company in respect of the final working capital settlement.

The allocation of the $42,148 purchase price, which was reduced by the final working capital settlement and was finalized during the second quarter of 2022, consisted of (1) $2,757 of fair value of tangible assets acquired, which included $884 cash received, (2) $275 of liabilities assumed, (3) $12,440 of identified intangible assets, and (4) $27,226 of goodwill, of which $6,044 is deductible for tax purposes. The fair value of intangible assets primarily includes $10,890 of developed technology and $1,220 of trademarks with a weighted average useful life of approximately seven years.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company determined that it will wind down the operations of Synzi and SnapMD during 2024. As a result of this decision, the Company recorded an immaterial impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of intangible assets and shortened their remaining useful lives. The wind down is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
