The purchase price in excess of the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill.
Identifiable Tangible Assets and Liabilities:
Assets and liabilities were reviewed and adjusted, if required, to their estimated fair value.
Inventories – The value allocated to inventories reflects the estimated fair value of the acquired inventory based on the expected sales price of the inventory, less reasonable selling margin.
Funded pension assets and liabilities – The costs of pension benefits and related liabilities for the employees that were transferred to the Company as a result of the acquisition were determined based on actuarial calculations.
Intangible Assets:
Existing technologies consist of NXP's data converter products that have reached technological feasibility and in-process research and development (IPR&D) which consists of projects that have not reached technological feasibility. The Company valued the existing technologies and IPR&D utilizing a multi-period excess earnings method (Excess Earnings Method), which uses the discounted future earnings specifically attributed to these intangible assets, that is, in excess of returns for other assets that contributed to those earnings. The Company utilized discount factors of 26% for the existing technologies and a discount factor of 31% was utilized for IPR&D. The Company valued one year of contractual backlog also using the Excess Earnings Method and a discount rate of 19%. Customer relationship and non-competition agreement values have been estimated utilizing a with and without method (With and Without Method), which uses projected cash flows with and without the intangible asset in place. Cash flow differentials are then discounted to present value to arrive at an estimate of fair value for the asset. The Company utilized discount factors of 29% for estimating the value of these intangible assets.
The financial results of the NXP B.V. data converter business have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations from July 19, 2012, the closing date of the acquisition.

Acquisition of Fox Enterprises, Inc.
On April 30, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Fox Enterprises, Inc. (Fox), a leading supplier of frequency control products including crystals and crystal oscillators, in an all-cash transaction for approximately $28.9 million, which included $25.7 million in cash paid at closing and $3.2 million which was recorded as a liability representing the fair value of contingent cash consideration of up to $4.0 million based upon the achievement of future financial milestones, which would be payable after 12 months from the acquisition date. During the three month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company settled the contingent consideration and paid Fox $3.3 million. The Company believes that the combination of Fox's product portfolio with the Company's CrystalFree™ oscillators makes the Company the industry's one-stop shop for frequency control products. In addition, the Company expects this acquisition will help accelerate the adoption of CrystalFree™ by enabling customers to purchase pMEMS and CMOS solid-state oscillators alongside traditional quartz-based components through the Company's established sales channels.
The Company allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired were based on management estimates and assumptions.
The Company incurred approximately $0.2 million of acquisition-related costs in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, and these costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Acquisition of Alvand Technologies, Inc.
On April 16, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Alvand Technologies Inc., a leading analog integrated circuits company specializing in data converters, for total purchase consideration of approximately $23.3 million, of which $20.5 million was paid in cash at closing and $2.8 million was recorded as a liability representing the fair value of contingent cash consideration of up to $4.0 million based upon the achievement of future product development milestones to be completed within 36 months following the acquisition date. Payments will be made on a proportionate basis upon the completion of each milestone. As of June 30, 2013, the fair value of the contingent consideration was re-measured based on a revised product development forecast for the business. As a result, the fair value of the contingent consideration increased to $3.4 million. $0.5 million of the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2013 and $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
