Acquisition of MPC Partnership Holdings LLC Acquisitions
MPC Partnership Holdings LLC
On the Acquisition Date, RMR LLC acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of MPC, excluding certain assets (including co-investment interests of legacy investment funds managed by MPC and the rights to future distributions and income allocations in respect of such interests) and liabilities (including liabilities related to such excluded assets), for $80,000 in cash, subject to customary adjustments for cash, debt, transaction expenses and working capital at closing, which are expected to be finalized during this fiscal year, plus up to an additional $20,000 subject to the deployment of remaining capital commitments in investment funds managed by MPC prior to the end of such funds’ investment period, or the Earnout. In addition to the Earnout, we agreed to pay retention payments to certain employees of MPC in an aggregate amount of $4,200 for their continued employment through December 31, 2025, or the Retention Payments. The Retention Payments are recognized as transaction and acquisition related costs and are forfeitable upon termination of employment prior to the end of the service period.
The Earnout represents contingent consideration of the Acquisition. The fair value of the Earnout was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), including management’s estimates of the deployment of capital remaining in investment funds managed by MPC, adjusted for historical volatility of similar transactions, and a discount rate based on credit ratings of companies similar to RMR LLC. For additional information, see Note 7, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
The following table summarizes the consideration transferred as of the Acquisition Date, excluding transaction costs:

The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair values as of the Acquisition Date.
Goodwill of $69,902 has been recognized based on the amount that the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired less the amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entity. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes and is primarily attributable to the workforce of the acquired business and synergies that can be achieved subsequent to the Acquisition.
As of September 30, 2024, we finalized the purchase price allocation for the Acquisition from the preliminary amounts reported as of December 31, 2024. The adjustments made during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on our consolidated balance sheets or our consolidated statements of income.
The following table summarizes the fair value amounts recognized for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and resulting goodwill as of the Acquisition Date:

Real estate, acquired leases and mortgage note payable
We acquired a 90.0% economic ownership interest in 260 Woodstock Investor, LLC, a mixed-use apartment complex located in Woodstock, GA, or the Woodstock Property. The allocation of the fair value of the Woodstock Property and related acquired leases as of the Acquisition Date is as follows:
Land$1,400 
Building and improvements7,060 
Acquired leases703 
Total real estate and acquired leases
$9,163 
We determined the fair value of the Woodstock Property and related acquired leases using Level 3 inputs and standard industry valuation methods, including discounted cash flow analyses and sales comparisons. Building and improvements had a remaining useful life of 25 years and the weighted average amortization period for acquired leases was 2.9 years as of the Acquisition Date.
A mortgage note payable with an acquisition date fair value of $4,726 and an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $5,429 is secured by the Woodstock Property, bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.71% per annum and matures in August 2029. Interest only payments are due on a monthly basis until September 2025, at which time payments of principal and interest are due monthly until the loan matures in August 2029. We determined the fair value of the mortgage note payable by discounting the expected cash flows at a rate comparable with interest rates for similar debt as of the Acquisition Date (Level 3 inputs). Principal payments due during the next five fiscal years are: $8 in 2025, $98 in 2026, $102 in 2027, $105 in 2028 and $5,116 in 2029 and thereafter.
As of September 30, 2024, we have entered into an agreement to sell the Woodstock Property for a sales price of $9,800, excluding closing costs. This pending sale is subject to conditions; accordingly, we cannot be sure that we will complete this sale or that this sale will not be delayed or the terms will not change. The Woodstock Property is presented in assets held for sale and the mortgage note payable is presented in liabilities held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets. As such, accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization excludes $221 and $331, respectively, related to the Woodstock Property. Property and equipment, net also excludes $15 in furniture and equipment related to the Woodstock Property that was purchased after the Acquisition Date. The Acquisition Date fair value of the noncontrolling interest in the Woodstock Property (10% ownership we did not acquire) of $444 is reflected in noncontrolling interest in consolidated entity in our consolidated balance sheets.
Property management and investment management agreements
As of the Acquisition Date, MPC managed 66 properties, including 14 in which MPC did not have an economic ownership interest in, or the Third Party Managed Properties, through its property management agreements and managed four funds through its investment management agreements. The property management agreements may be terminated upon written notice and generally provide for property management fees ranging from 2.5% to 3.5% of gross collected rents, construction management fees of 5.0% of construction costs and reimbursement of costs incurred to manage the properties. The investment management agreements generally provide for fees that are based on the lesser of a percentage of invested capital and a fixed fee ranging from $100 to $200 annually. As of the Acquisition Date, the weighted average remaining useful life of these agreements was 5.6 years.
Trade name
MPC operates many of its residential properties under the trade name ARIUM. We concluded this asset has an indefinite life.
Investor relationships
MPC has relationships with institutional investors that have invested in, and may continue to invest in, the funds managed by MPC. As of the Acquisition Date, the weighted average remaining useful life of these relationships was 5.0 years.
Managed funds
As of the Acquisition Date and pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2023, by and among RMR LLC, MPC, and the sellers and seller owners set forth therein, we managed four funds that invest in residential real estate. Three of the four funds have no unfunded capital commitments remaining. As of the Acquisition Date, Fund VII had $208,026 in unfunded capital commitments remaining from total capital commitments of $342,825. In the future, we will be eligible to participate in distributions and profits interests on investments from capital commitments we provide to Fund VII, or Investment Interest; however, we had no Investment Interest in Fund VII as of the Acquisition Date, and as of the Acquisition Date, we had no obligations nor rights to any distributions or profits interests from investments of capital contributed on or prior to the Acquisition Date.
As of September 30, 2024, we have funded capital of $213 to Fund VII and we have not contributed any capital to any of the other funds we manage. The results of these funds are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements and we have accounted for the contribution to Fund VII as an equity method investment.
