The excess of the fair value of the net assets over the purchase price was recorded as a gain of $24 million. The Gain on bargain purchase of a business arose primarily due to necessary equipment upgrades that will be required after the purchase to continue to utilize the existing assets.

Cabot paid the $14 million of cash consideration during the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
