NOTE 5 — ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of TS

On February 27, 2017, Tech Data acquired all of the outstanding shares of TS for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.8 billion, comprised of approximately $2.5 billion in cash and 2,785,402 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at approximately $247 million based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on February 27, 2017. TS delivered data center hardware and software solutions and services and the TS acquisition strengthened the Company's end-to-end solutions portfolio and deepened its value added capabilities in the data center and next-generation technologies. The total cash consideration payable to Avnet was subject to certain working capital and other adjustments, as determined through the process established in the interest purchase agreement. In August 2018, the Company executed a settlement agreement with Avnet, resulting in a final working capital adjustment of $120 million which was paid to Avnet during the third quarter of fiscal 2019. As the measurement period has concluded, a gain of $9.6 million was recorded in “acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses” in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended January 31, 2019, representing the difference between the final working capital adjustment and the Company’s prior estimate. Additionally, as part of the settlement agreement, the Company and Avnet reached agreement on the final geographic allocation of the purchase price for tax reporting purposes which resulted in the recognition of a deferred tax asset in the U.S. for future tax deductions related to the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes. The recognition of the deferred tax asset in the U.S. resulted in an income tax benefit of $13.0 million during fiscal 2019.

The Company has accounted for the TS acquisition as a business combination and allocated the purchase price to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:



(in millions)
Cash	$	176
Accounts receivable	1,830
Inventories	239
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	100
Property and equipment, net	62
Goodwill	727
Intangible assets	919
Other assets, net	151
Total assets	4,204

Other current liabilities	1,169
Revolving credit loans and long-term debt	134
Other long-term liabilities	99
Total liabilities	1,402

Purchase price	$	2,802

Identifiable intangible assets are comprised of approximately $875 million of customer relationships with a weighted-average amortization period of 14 years and $44 million of trade names with an amortization period of 5 years. Goodwill is the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and primarily represents the expected revenue and cost synergies of the combined company and assembled workforce. Approximately $1.2 billion of the goodwill and identifiable intangible assets are expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has recorded certain indemnification assets for expected amounts to be received from Avnet related to liabilities recorded for unrecognized tax benefits and other items (See Note 9 – Income Taxes for further discussion).

Included within the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income are estimated net sales for the year ended January 31, 2018, of approximately $7.6 billion from TS subsequent to the acquisition date of February 27, 2017. As the Company began integrating certain sales and other functions after the closing of the acquisition, these amounts represent an estimate of the TS net sales for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018. It is not necessarily indicative of how the TS operations would have performed on a stand-alone basis. As a result of certain integration activities subsequent to the date of acquisition, it is impracticable to disclose earnings from TS in fiscal 2018 for the period subsequent to the acquisition date.

The following table presents unaudited supplemental pro forma information as if the TS acquisition had occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2017. The pro forma results presented are based on combining the stand-alone operating results of the Company and TS for the periods prior to the acquisition date after giving effect to certain adjustments related to the transaction. The pro forma results exclude any benefits that may result from potential cost synergies of the combined company and certain non-recurring costs. As a result, the pro forma information below does not purport to present what actual results would have been had the acquisition actually been consummated on the date indicated and it is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may result in the future.



Year ended January 31:	2018		2017
(in millions)	(Unaudited)
Pro forma net sales	$	34,268	$	32,882
Pro forma net income	$	129	$	232

Adjustments reflected in the pro forma results include the following:


•	Amortization of acquired intangible assets


•	Interest costs associated with the transaction


•	Removal of certain non-recurring transaction costs of $20 million and $12 million in fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively


•	Tax effects of adjustments based on an estimated statutory tax rate


•	Impact of adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)"
