Acquisitions

The following is a summary of the allocation of the total purchase consideration for business and asset acquisitions that the Company completed during fiscal 2018 and 2017:



(In millions)	April 30, 2018	October 31, 2017
Technology	—	71.7
Customer relationships	23.5	43.1
Trademarks	100.0	7.1
Composite intangible asset	1,061.9	—
Other	4.2	—
Total identifiable intangible assets	1,189.6	121.9
Goodwill	67.8	123.1
Net tangible assets (liabilities)	62.4	(4.8	)
Total purchase price	1,319.8	240.2

All the acquisitions were paid in cash and funded by our debt borrowings.

For assets acquisition, we recorded the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated and relative fair values as of the applicable date of acquisition. For business acquisition, we recorded the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values as of the applicable date of acquisition.

We believe these acquisitions strengthen CooperSurgical's and CooperVision's businesses through the addition of new or complementary products and services.

Fiscal Year 2018

PARAGARD

On November 1, 2017, CooperSurgical acquired the assets of the PARAGARD Intrauterine Device (IUD) business (PARAGARD) from Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Limited (Teva) for $1.1 billion.

This asset acquisition broadens and strengthens CooperSurgical's current product portfolio. PARAGARD^® is the only hormone-free, long lasting, reversible contraceptive approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) available in the United States.

The Company has accounted for the acquisition of PARAGARD as a purchase of assets in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations, and ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, whereby the Company recognized assets acquired based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Due to the required screening test, the acquisition does not meet the definition of a business as substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset. The Company retained independent appraisers to advise management in the determination of the relative fair value of the various assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The values assigned in these financial statements represent management’s best estimate of relative fair values as of the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the relative fair values of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the cost accumulation and allocation model:



(In millions)	Relative Fair Value
Composite intangible asset ⁽¹⁾	1,061.9
Assembled workforce intangible asset⁽²⁾	1.2
Property, plant and equipment	2.0
Inventory ⁽³⁾	47.3
Other assets	9.4
Total assets acquired	1,121.8
Less: liabilities assumed	16.4
Total Purchase Price	1,105.4

The Company proportionally allocated the acquisition costs to the net assets acquired. The acquisition-related costs included advisory, legal, valuation and other professional fees.

⁽¹⁾Composite Intangible asset consists of technology, trade name, New Drug Application (NDA) approval and physician relationships, which have been valued as a single composite intangible asset as they are inextricably linked. The composite asset was identified as the primary asset acquired, was valued using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method and will be amortized over 15 years.

⁽²⁾An assembled workforce was recognized as a separate acquired intangible asset, given the purchase of assets and will be amortized over 5 years.

⁽³⁾Inventory relative fair value includes step up of $45.4 million.

As PARAGARD was considered an asset purchase as opposed to a business acquisition in accordance with the guidance under FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations, and ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, the Company has not included proforma financial information which is applicable for a business acquisition.

Other Acquisitions

On April 3, 2018, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of The LifeGlobal Group (LifeGlobal). LifeGlobal was a privately held company that specializes primarily in IVF media. LifeGlobal’s product categories include media products as well as IVF laboratory air filtration products and dishware. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and we are in the process of finalizing information related to assets, liabilities and the corresponding impact on goodwill.

On December 1, 2017, CooperVision acquired Paragon Vision Sciences, a leading provider of orthokeratology (ortho-k) specialty contact lenses and oxygen permeable rigid contact lens materials. Ortho-k contact lenses are overnight lenses which enable corneal topography correction for myopia (nearsightedness) patients. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and we are in the process of finalizing information related to assets, liabilities and the corresponding impact on goodwill.

On January 4, 2018, CooperVision acquired Blueyes Ltd, a long-standing distribution partner, with a leading position in the distribution of contact lenses to the Optical and Pharmacy sector in Israel. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and we are in the process of finalizing information related to assets, liabilities and the corresponding impact on goodwill.

The pro forma results of operations of these acquisitions have not been presented because the effects of the business combinations described above, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our consolidated results of operations.
