Acquisitions [Text Block]
Note 3: Acquisitions
During 2015 and 2014, we completed the acquisitions of Novartis Animal Health (Novartis AH) and Lohmann SE (Lohmann AH), respectively. Additionally, on October 1, 2015, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company and E.R. Squibb (collectively, BMS) transferred to us their commercialization rights with respect to Erbitux® in the U.S. and Canada (collectively, North America) through a modification of our existing arrangement. We also had an immaterial acquisition of a business in April 2016. These transactions were accounted for as business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting. See Note 4 for additional information related to the Erbitux arrangement. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date in our consolidated financial statements. The determination of estimated fair value required management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets, where applicable, has been recorded as goodwill. The results of operations of these acquisitions are included in our consolidated financial statements from the dates of acquisition.
During 2016, we announced an agreement to acquire Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc.'s U.S. feline, canine, and rabies vaccine portfolio which was subsequently completed in January 2017. Details of this transaction are discussed below in Acquisitions of Businesses.
In addition to the acquisitions of businesses, we also acquired assets in development in 2016, 2015, and 2014 which are further discussed in this note below in Asset Acquisitions. Upon acquisition, the acquired IPR&D related to these products was immediately written off as an expense because the products had no alternative future use. For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, we recorded acquired IPR&D charges of $30.0 million, $535.0 million, and $200.2 million, respectively. The 2016 charge was associated with the transaction discussed in this note below in Asset Acquisitions. The 2015 charges were associated with the transactions discussed in this note below in Asset Acquisitions and the upfront fee of $200.0 million related to tanezumab. The 2014 charges were associated with the transactions discussed below in Asset Acquisitions and a $55.2 million charge related to the transfer to us of Boehringer Ingelheim's rights to co-promote our new insulin glargine product in countries where it was not yet approved. See Note 4 for additional information related to the tanezumab and Boehringer Ingelheim arrangements.
In January 2017, we announced an agreement to acquire CoLucid Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CoLucid), including its Phase III molecule, lasmiditan, an oral therapy for the acute treatment of migraine. Substantially all of the value of CoLucid is related to lasmiditan, its only significant asset, and we expect to account for the transaction as the acquisition of an asset. Under the terms of the agreement, we will acquire all of shares of CoLucid for a purchase price of $46.50 per share or approximately $960 million. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2017, subject to clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and other customary closing conditions. In addition, a shareholder lawsuit has been filed seeking to enjoin the closing of the transaction. We expect an acquired IPR&D charge of approximately $850 million (no tax benefit) in the first quarter of 2017. The amount will not be finalized until after the completion of the acquisition.
Acquisitions of Businesses
Subsequent Event - Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. Vaccine Portfolio Acquisition
Overview of Transaction
On January 3, 2017, we acquired Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc.'s U.S. feline, canine, and rabies vaccine portfolio in an all-cash transaction for approximately $885 million, subject to final inventory quantities purchased and other adjustments. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired a manufacturing and research and development site, a U.S. vaccine portfolio including vaccines used for the treatment of bordetella, Lyme disease, rabies, and parvovirus, among others, as well as several pipeline assets. The accounting impact of this acquisition and the results of the operations will be included in our financial statements beginning on January 3, 2017.
Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed
The initial accounting for this acquisition is incomplete. Significant, relevant information needed to complete the initial accounting is not available because the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is not complete. As a result, determining these values is not practicable and we are unable to disclose these values or provide other related disclosures at this time.
Novartis AH Acquisition
Overview of Transaction
On January 1, 2015, we acquired from Novartis AG all of the shares of certain Novartis subsidiaries and the assets and liabilities of other Novartis subsidiaries that were exclusively related to the Novartis AH business in an all-cash transaction for a total purchase price of $5.28 billion, $5.41 billion of which was funded by cash held in escrow at December 31, 2014.
As a condition to the clearance of the transaction under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, following the closing of the acquisition of Novartis AH, we divested certain animal health assets in the U.S. related to the Sentinel® canine parasiticide franchise to Virbac Corporation for approximately $410 million.
The acquired Novartis AH business consisted of the research and development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of veterinary products to prevent and treat diseases in pets, farm animals, and farmed fish. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired manufacturing sites, research and development facilities, a global commercial infrastructure and portfolio of products, a pipeline of projects in development, and employees.

(1) These intangible assets, which are being amortized to cost of sales on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, were expected to have a weighted average useful life of 19 years.
(2) The goodwill recognized from this acquisition is attributable primarily to expected synergies from combining the operations of Novartis AH with our legacy animal health business, future unidentified projects and products, and the assembled workforce of Novartis AH. Approximately $1.0 billion of the goodwill associated with this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.
Actual and Supplemental Pro Forma Information
Our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 includes Novartis AH revenue of $1.02 billion. For 2015, Novartis AH was partially integrated into our animal health segment and as a result of these integration efforts, certain parts of the animal health business were operating on a combined basis, and we could not distinguish the operations between Novartis AH and our legacy animal health business.
The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined consolidated results of our operations with Novartis AH as if the portion of Novartis AH that we retained after the sale to Virbac had been acquired as of January 1, 2014. We have adjusted the historical consolidated financial information to give effect to pro forma events that are directly attributable to the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of what our consolidated results of operations would have been had we completed the acquisition at the beginning of 2014. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not attempt to project the future results of operations of our combined company.

The unaudited pro forma financial information above reflects primarily the following pro forma pretax adjustments:
Additional amortization expense of approximately $104 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, related to the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired.
Additional cost of sales in 2014, and a corresponding reduction in cost of sales in 2015, of approximately $153 million related to the fair value adjustments to acquisition date inventory that was sold in the year ended December 31, 2015.
A decrease to pro forma net income of approximately $112 million in the year ended December 31, 2014, associated with an increase to interest expense related to the incremental debt that we issued to partially finance the acquisition and a reduction of interest income associated with investments which would have been used to partially fund the acquisition.
In addition, all of the above adjustments were adjusted for the applicable tax impact. The taxes associated with the adjustments above reflect the statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions where the fair value adjustments occurred.
Lohmann AH Acquisition
On April 30, 2014, we acquired Lohmann AH, a privately-held company headquartered in Cuxhaven, Germany, through a stock purchase for a total purchase price of $591.2 million, comprised of $551.4 million of net cash plus $39.8 million of assumed debt. Lohmann AH was a global leader in poultry vaccines. As part of this transaction, we acquired the rights to a range of vaccines, commercial capabilities, and manufacturing sites in Germany and the U.S. The acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements.
