BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of R&D Entities

Effective December 31, 2019, we completed the acquisition of R&D Test Systems, R&D Engineering, R&D Steel, R&D Prague, RGDK Engineering Private Limited and R&D Tools and Structures (collectively, R&D) for an upfront cash purchase price of $58,373. The acquisition was primarily funded through our existing Revolving Credit Facility. The remaining purchase price is based on earn-out payments of up to an additional $26,000 contingent on financial performance through June 2021 and further impacted by fluctuations in exchange rates. As of the acquisition date, we estimated the fair value of the earn-out liability (contingent consideration) to be $16,903. As of October 3, 2020, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $26,497. See Note 7 for additional information on the fair value of the contingent consideration. Based out of Denmark, R&D is a leader in high-quality, durable, rotating test systems, serving primarily the wind energy markets. During fiscal year 2020, we included $47,586 of revenue from R&D in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Costs of $2,356 associated with the acquisition of R&D were expensed as incurred. Pro forma information related to the acquisition of R&D has not been included as the impact on our consolidated results of operations was not considered material.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value measurement of the assets acquired as of the date of acquisition:

The allocation of purchase price consideration is considered preliminary as of October 3, 2020 with provisional amounts related to intangible assets, accrued income taxes, deferred income taxes and purchase price adjustments included, which includes the contingent consideration, as our allocation process has not been finalized. We expect to finalize the allocation of purchase price as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the acquisition date. Measurement period adjustments were recorded in the third and fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 and have been reflected in the table above. The measurement period adjustments were not material.

Goodwill was calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the total purchase price consideration and the fair value of the net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits that we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition. This resulted in a purchase price in excess of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired. The purchase price also included the fair value of other assets that were not identifiable, not separately recognizable under accounting rules (e.g., assembled workforce) or of immaterial value. All of the goodwill was assigned to Test & Simulation. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes.

The fair value of the acquired intangible assets was $42,251. The acquired intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful lives identified in the table above.

Endevco Acquisition

On August 5, 2019, we acquired the Endevco sensors business (Endevco) from Meggitt PLC for a cash purchase price of $68,330. We funded the acquisition of Endevco through cash on hand. Endevco is a historic leader in high performance test and measurement sensors used primarily in the testing of new products. This strategic product line purchase brings together two iconic brands in the test and measurement sensors market, in PCB and Endevco, and further enhances our long-term strategy of growth and market leadership in our core businesses. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The acquired assets and operating results have been included in our financial statements within Sensors from the date of acquisition. During fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we included approximately $18,300 and $4,409, respectively, of revenue from Endevco in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Pro forma information related to the acquisition of Endevco has not been included as the impact on our consolidated results of operations was not considered material.
