ACQUISITIONS

On May 31, 2013, we completed the purchase of the assets of Wuhan Asia-Pacific Condiments Co. Ltd. (WAPC), a privately held company based in China, for $144.8 million, which included $142.3 million of cash paid, net of closing adjustments, and the assumption of $2.5 million of liabilities. This acquisition was financed with a combination of cash and debt. WAPC manufactures and markets DaQiao and ChuShiLe brand bouillon products, which have a leading position in the central region of China. WAPC is included in our consumer business segment from the date of acquisition. At the time of acquisition, annual sales of WAPC were approximately $122 million. During the second quarter of 2014, we completed the final valuation of the assets of WAPC which resulted in $26.9 million allocated to tangible net assets, $46.1 million allocated to other intangible assets and $71.8 million allocated to goodwill. The completion of the final valuation did not result in material changes to our consolidated income statement or our consolidated balance sheet from our preliminary purchase price allocation.
Proforma financial information for this acquisition has not been presented because the financial impact is not material.
