16. Acquisitions

On February 28, 2013, the Company acquired Aarding, pursuant to the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement, dated February 28, 2013, among the Company, CECO Environmental Netherland B.V., N.F.J.A. Pieterse Beheer B.V., W.M. Pranger Beheer B.V., and ATA Beheer B.V. Aarding is a global provider of natural gas turbine exhaust systems and silencer applications and is now part of our Energy Segment. The purchase price included cash of $24.4 million and 763,673 shares of restricted common stock. The fair value of the common stock issued was determined to be $6.8 million, which reflects the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the closing date of the acquisition and a discount related to the sale and transfer restrictions on the shares. The cash paid was funded by the Company’s cash reserves. Of the total consideration paid, €4.0 million ($5.5 million as of June 30, 2014) is contingent upon the future employment by the sellers and, therefore, has been classified as prepaid compensation by the Company. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the current portion of the prepaid compensation of $1.1 million is in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets,” while the non-current portion of $2.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, is in “Deferred charges and other assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of compensation expense has been recorded in “Amortization and earn out expenses” on the condensed consolidated statements of income. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of compensation expense has been recorded in “Amortization and earn out expenses” on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Additionally, the former owners of Aarding are entitled to earn-out payments of up to €5.5 million ($7.5 million as of June 30, 2014) upon the attainment of specified financial targets through December 31, 2017. Such earn out payments are contingent upon the continued employment of the sellers. Accordingly, no value for the potential earn out consideration was allocated to the purchase price of Aarding as any such payments will be reported as future compensation expense by the Company. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, $0.4 million of earn-out expense has been recorded in “Amortization and earn out expenses” on the condensed consolidated statements of income. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, $0.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of earn-out expense has been recorded in “Amortization and earn out expenses” on the condensed consolidated statements of income. An accrual of $0.5 million and $1.3 million relating to the earn-out is included within “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of closing of the acquisition.

On August 27, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of Met-Pro, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 21, 2013, and amended as of August 5, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”). Met-Pro’s shareholders had the option to elect to exchange each share of Met-Pro common stock for either (i) $13.75 in cash, without interest, or (ii) shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $13.75, based on the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock for the 15-trading day period ending on August 26, 2013, the last trading day before the closing of the merger, subject to a collar so that there was a maximum exchange ratio of 1.3520 shares of the Company’s common stock for each share of Met-Pro common stock and a minimum of 1.0000 share of the Company’s common stock for each share of Met-Pro common stock, subject to certain exceptions and with overall elections subject to proration.

Approximately 51.6% of the shares of Met-Pro common stock converted into the right to receive the $13.75 cash consideration, for an approximate total of $104.4 million The trading price of the Company’s common stock for the 15-day period was $12.6814. As a result, each of the remaining shares of Met-Pro common stock converted into the right to receive 1.0843 shares of Company common stock, or an approximate total of 7,726,235 shares of Company common stock in the aggregate.

In accordance with the proration and reallocation provisions of the Merger Agreement, because the $13.75 per share cash consideration was oversubscribed by Met-Pro shareholders prior to the election deadline, (a) each Met-Pro share for which a valid stock election was made or for which no valid cash or stock election was made was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive the stock consideration and (b) each Met-Pro shareholder of record that made a valid cash election received (i) the Cash Consideration for approximately 77.56% of such holder’s Met-Pro shares for which a valid cash election was made and (ii) the stock consideration for approximately 22.44% of such holder’s Met-Pro Shares for which a valid cash election was made. The value of stock recorded was $98.0 million.

In addition, holders of outstanding Met-Pro options and restricted stock units received an aggregate amount of cash equal to approximately $4.9 million as consideration for the cancellation of the options and restricted stock units held by them as of immediately prior to the merger.

The following table summarizes the approximate fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of closing. The approximate fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the related tax balances, are based on preliminary estimates and assumptions. These preliminary estimates and assumptions could change significantly during the purchase price measurement period as we finalize the valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the related tax balances. Such changes could result in material variances between the Company’s future financial results and the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma information, including variances in the estimated purchase price, fair values recorded and expenses associated with these items.

(a) The assets held for sale primarily consist of real property and are valued at the estimated proceeds less costs to sell.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company received proceeds of $6.6 million for the sale of assets held for sale.

The pro forma results have been prepared for informational purposes only and include adjustments to amortize acquired intangible assets with finite life, eliminate acquisition related expenses, eliminate intercompany transactions between the Company and Aarding, reflect foregone interest income on cash paid for the acquisitions and to record the income tax consequences of the pro forma adjustments. Shares used to calculate the basic and diluted earnings per share were adjusted to reflect the additional shares of common stock issued to fund a portion of the acquisition price. These pro forma results do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had the purchases been made as of the beginning of the periods presented or of the results of operations that may occur in the future.

Acquisition and integration expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income are related to acquisition activities, which include retention, legal, accounting, banking, and other expenses.
