 (3)           Acquisitions

ExamWorks operates in a highly fragmented industry and has completed numerous acquisitions since July 14, 2008. A key component of ExamWorks’ acquisition strategy is growth through acquisitions that expand its geographic coverage, that provide new or complementary lines of business, expand its portfolio of services and that increase its market share.

The Company has accounted for all business combinations using the purchase method to record a new cost basis for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company recorded, based on a preliminary purchase price allocation, intangible assets representing client relationships, tradenames, covenants not to compete, and technology and the excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the separately recognized intangible assets has been recorded as goodwill in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The goodwill is attributable to synergies achieved through the streamlining of operations combined with improved margins attainable through increased market presence. The results of operations are reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition.

In 2010, the Company recorded an adjustment to working capital for one of the insignificant 2009 acquisitions resulting in an increase to total consideration paid of $100,000. Certain of these transactions contain earnout provisions based upon the achievement of certain revenue targets and profitability targets and payable annually over a two-year or a 4.75 year period. Based on estimates of expected cash payments and the probability of acquired businesses achieving certain results, the Company recorded $2.3 million of contingent consideration in conjunction with the preliminary purchase price allocation. The contingent consideration includes seller debt in the form of subordinated unsecured notes payable with an estimated fair value of $1.1 million, 355,584 shares of the Company’s common stock with an estimated fair value of $572,000, and deferred payments with an estimated fair value of $618,000. The seller debt and the shares of the Company’s stock are subject to clawback provisions in the event that certain revenue targets are not achieved over the earnout period. The deferred payments are payable annually over a two–year period, 50% payable in cash and 50% payable with the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the deferred payments are adjusted quarterly based primarily on the movement in the fair value of the Company’s common stock to be issued with the change being recorded as other (income) expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, the Company recorded additional contingent consideration of $300,000 and $2.3 million, respectively, resulting primarily from the change in the value of the earnout as other expense, and for the year ended December 31, 2011 the Company recorded a reduction to contingent consideration of $1.4 million, of which $1.2 million was recorded as other income and $221,000 was recorded in SGA expenses, in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The acquisition agreement contains a clawback provision whereby certain revenue and profitability targets must be met for a period of two years. At the time of closing, the Company expected Direct IME to achieve the targeted levels. Additionally, the acquisition agreement contains contingent consideration in the form of an earnout provision based upon the achievement of certain revenue and profitability targets. Any contingent consideration is payable at the end of a two-year period.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded additional contingent consideration of $210,000 resulting primarily from the change in the value of the earnout as other expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.  In the third quarter of 2011, the Company and the sellers of Direct IME agreed to terminate the clawback and earnout provisions in the acquisition agreement.  As a result, the Company recorded a reduction to contingent consideration of approximately $600,000 in SGA expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The goodwill and other intangible assets resulting from the MES acquisition are not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that information gathered to date provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but the Company is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values, principally as it relates to the valuation of acquired accounts receivable and income tax matters. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value set forth above are subject to change.  As the adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation are not deemed material to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not reflected the adjustments retroactively as of the acquisition date.  The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.  The MES acquisition contributed $120.3 million in revenues and $9.3 million in operating income for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In conjunction with the other 2011 acquisitions, the Company incurred transaction costs of $604,000, of which $42,000 and $562,000 were incurred in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively, and are reported in SGA expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Goodwill of $19.9 million and other intangible assets of $20.1 million are expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that information gathered to date provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed but the Company is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value set forth above are subject to change.  Such changes are not expected to be significant.  The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.  The other 2011 acquisitions contributed $10.6 million in revenues and $270,000 in operating income for the year ended December 31, 2011.

(e)           Pro forma Financial Information

The following unaudited pro forma results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011 assumes that the 2010 and 2011 acquisitions were completed on January 1, 2010.

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, the pro forma results include adjustments to reflect additional interest expense of $18.4 million and $6.0 million, respectively, associated with the funding of the acquisitions assuming that acquisition related debt was incurred on January 1, 2010.  In addition, incremental depreciation and amortization expense was recorded as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2010 and amounted to $33.4 million and $10.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively.  Finally, adjustments of $28.8 million and $12.4 million were made to SGA expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively, principally related to certain salary and other personal  expenses attributable to the previous owners of the acquired businesses.  These adjustments represent contractual reductions and are considered to be non-recurring and are not expected to have a continuing impact on the operations of the Company.
