5. ACQUISITIONS

On September 5, 2011, we acquired the assets of Powerlink Specialist Electronics Support Limited (“Powerlink”) for approximately $2.3 million, including a working capital adjustment of $0.2 million related to payables of approximately $0.2 million that were paid by Powerlink prior to the close. Powerlink, a UK-based technical service company with locations in London and Dubai, services traveling wave tube (“TWT”) amplifiers and related equipment for the Satellite Communications market throughout Europe and the Middle East. This acquisition positions us to provide cost-effective service of microwave and power grid tube equipment for communications, industrial, military and medical users around the world.

The allocation of the final purchase price, recorded during fiscal year 2012, included $0.4 million of trade receivables, $0.2 million of inventory, $0.4 million of other intangibles, and $1.3 million of goodwill. The goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair market value of the identifiable net assets we acquired. Pro forma financial information is not presented due to immateriality.

On September 4, 2012, we acquired the assets of D and C Import-Export, Inc. (“D and C”) for approximately $2.6 million. D and C, a Florida-based distributor of power grid tubes and associated RF components, services the commercial, broadcast, medical, industrial, scientific, and military markets. This acquisition provides us with access to additional product lines, vendors, and customers.
