¹ As previously reported in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2019.

² During the third quarter, the Company finalized its valuation of assumed favorable and unfavorable real estate operating leases based on comparable market terms of similar leases at the acquisition dates, which also impacted the valuation of the Company's customer lease contract and customer relationship intangible assets. The adjustment also resulted in the recognition of immaterial adjustments to operating expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of earnings, as well as restructuring expenses (reversals), net during the three months ended September 30, 2019 to recognize expense that would have been recognized in prior periods had the favorable lease asset been recorded as of the acquisition date.

³ As of the respective acquisition dates, the Company had not yet adopted ASC 842. As such, there were no operating lease right-of-use assets or operating lease liabilities recognized within the condensed consolidated financial statements at the time of acquisition. The Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities for the acquired stores as part of the transition to ASC 842 on January 1, 2019. As discussed above, the Company finalized its valuation of assumed favorable and unfavorable real estate operating leases, which was recorded within operating lease right-of-use assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

⁴ Identifiable intangible assets are further disaggregated in the table set forth below.

⁵ The total goodwill recognized in conjunction with the franchisee acquisitions, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, has been assigned to the Aaron’s Business reporting unit. The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired, which resulted in the recognition of goodwill, primarily due to synergies created from the expected future benefits to the Company’s omnichannel platform, implementation of the Company’s operational capabilities, expected inventory supply chain synergies between the Aaron’s Business and Progressive Leasing, and control of the Company’s brand name in new geographic markets. Goodwill also includes certain other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as an assembled workforce.
