Future Contingent Payments
(Continued)
 
Estimates of future contingent payments are subject to significant judgment and actual payments
may
materially differ from estimates. Potential future contingent payments to be made to all active acquisitions after
June 29, 2019
are capped at a cumulative maximum of
$9.3
million. The Company estimates future contingent consideration payments based on forecasted performance and recorded the fair value of those expected payments as of
June 29, 2019. 
During the
twenty-six
week period ended
June 29, 2019,
the Company measured the intangibles acquired at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Contingent consideration related to acquisitions are recorded at fair value (level
3
) with changes in fair value recorded in other (expense) income, net.
 
The Company paid contingent consideration of
$0.6
million and
$0.3
million during the
twenty-six
week periods ended
June 29, 2019
and
June 30, 2018,
respectively.
 
TKE
Effective
September 30, 2018,
the Company acquired the business operations of Thermal Kinetics Engineering, PLLC, a New York professional limited liability company and Thermal Kinetics Systems, LLC, a New York limited liability company (together, “TKE”). TKE is an established Buffalo-based engineering company providing full service process equipment supply, engineering, development and design services for construction and industrial customers.  TKE provides engineering services on construction and industrial processes. TKE engineers and builds optimal thermal integrations and unique separations approaches for industrial processes and equipment, with clients primarily in the chemical, oil and gas, renewable fuels, pharmaceutical, and industrial manufacturing industries. TKE will complement and expand the Company’s services offerings, providing a stronger depth of experienced engineering resources and capabilities. The preliminary consideration and estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

Common stock of the Company

Contingent consideration, at fair value

Total consideration
  $
5,879
 
 
The shareholders of TKE are eligible to receive post-closing contingent consideration upon the business exceeding certain base levels of operating income, potentially earned over
three
years.  The amount recorded for the contingent consideration represents the acquisition date fair value of expected consideration to be paid based on TKE’s forecasted operating income during the
three
year period. Expected consideration was valued based on different possible scenarios for projected operating income.  Each case was assigned a probability which was used to calculate an estimate of the forecasted future payments.  Then a discount rate was applied to these forecasted future payments to determine the acquisition date fair value to be recorded.  At the time of the acquisition, the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities acquired are the same. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The total preliminary estimated purchase price has been allocated as follows:
 
Fixed assets
