Business Acquisition

Fiscal 2014

On May 3, 2013, the Company completed the purchase of assets related to the Semiconductor Systems business of GSI Group Inc. for a total purchase price of $9.7 million. The acquisition provides the Company with direct access to industry-leading wafer marking, wafer trimming and circuit trimming laser systems. The purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values and resulted in a net gain on bargain purchase of $0.5 million. The fair value of the acquired net assets of $10.5 million was in excess of the total purchase consideration of $9.7 million, primarily due to the recognition of certain intangible assets. The resulting gain of $0.8 million was partially offset by $0.3 million of deferred tax liabilities. Analysis supporting the purchase price allocation included a valuation of assets and liabilities as of the closing date, an analysis of intangible assets and a detailed review of the opening balance sheet to determine other significant adjustments required to recognize assets and liabilities at fair value. The acquisition was an asset purchase for tax purposes.

As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded approximately $8.2 million of inventory, $3.9 million of accounts receivable and other current assets, $0.7 million of identifiable intangible assets, $2.3 million of current liabilities, and a gain on bargain purchase of $0.8 million. The $0.7 million of identifiable intangible assets includes approximately $0.5 million of backlog and $0.2 million of developed technology. The acquired intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from one to three years.

In 2014, the Company also incurred approximately $1.5 million in acquisition related costs which are included in Selling, service and administration expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The operating results of this purchase are included in the Company’s results of operations since the date of acquisition. Pro forma financial information has not been provided for the purchase as it was not material to the Company’s overall financial position.
