5. Acquisition

On February 28, 2013, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Xtrakter Limited (“Xtrakter”) from Euroclear S.A./N.V. Xtrakter is a U.K.-based provider of trade matching, regulatory transaction reporting and market and reference data across a range of fixed-income products. The acquisition of Xtrakter provides the Company with an expanded set of technology solutions ahead of incoming pre-and post-trade transparency mandates from the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II in Europe. The aggregate purchase price was $37.8 million in cash, net of acquired cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, transaction costs such as legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, valuation and other professional services were $1.6 million.

The Company has completed a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. It is possible that the purchase price allocation will be adjusted upon finalization of the valuation for the acquired intangible assets and income tax liabilities. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation in the fourth quarter of 2013. The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):
