Note O – Business Acquisition

 

On June 29, 2023, the Company acquired certain assets, including accounts receivable, inventories, furniture, fixtures and equipment, intellectual property rights, and rights existing under all sales and purchase agreements, and assumed certain liabilities of Sureflex, Inc. (“Sureflex”). These assets are held in our Velvac, Inc. (“Velvac”) subsidiary. We expect that Sureflex, which manufactures tractor-trailer electrical connection cable assemblies, will enable the Company to manufacture electrical products and become more competitive with respect to cost and quality.

 

The acquisition of Sureflex was accounted for under Business Combinations (ASC Topic 805). The acquired business is included in the consolidated operating results of the Company from the effective date of the acquisition. The excess of the cost of Sureflex over the fair market value of the net assets acquired of $0.5 million has been recorded as goodwill.

 

Neither the actual results nor the pro forma effects of the Sureflex acquisition are material to the Company’s financial statements.
