NOTE 4· Business Combinations

Acquisitions in 2013

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, Brown & Brown has acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of two insurance intermediaries and a book of business (customer accounts). The aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions was $17,865,000, including $14,366,000 of cash payments, the issuance of $85,000 in other payables, the assumption of $860,000 of liabilities and $2,554,000 of recorded earn-out payables. All of these acquisitions were acquired primarily to expand Brown & Brown’s core businesses and to attract and hire high-quality individuals. Acquisition purchase prices are typically based on a multiple of average annual operating profit earned over a one- to three-year period within a minimum and maximum price range. The recorded purchase price for all acquisitions consummated after January 1, 2009 included an estimation of the fair value of liabilities associated with any potential earn-out provisions. Subsequent changes in the fair value of earn-out obligations will be recorded in the consolidated statement of income when incurred.

The fair value of earn-out obligations is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired businesses in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements. In determining fair value, the acquired business’s future performance is estimated using financial projections developed by management for the acquired business and reflects market participant assumptions regarding revenue growth and/or profitability. The expected future payments are estimated on the basis of the earn-out formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement compared to the associated financial projections. These payments are then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate that takes into consideration the likelihood that the forecasted earn-out payments will be made.

Based on the acquisition date and the complexity of the underlying valuation work, certain amounts included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements may be provisional and thus subject to further adjustments within the permitted measurement period, as defined in ASC Topic 805 – Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). For the six months ended June 30, 2013, several adjustments were made within the permitted measurement period that resulted in reduction to the aggregate purchase price of the applicable acquisitions of $1,115,000, including $18,000 of cash payments, a reduction of $454,000 in other payables, the assumption of $42,000 of liabilities and the reduction of $721,000 in recorded earn-out payables.

The following table summarizes the aggregate purchase price allocations made as of the date of each acquisition for current year acquisitions and adjustments made during the measurement period for prior year acquisitions:

For acquisitions consummated prior to January 1, 2009, additional consideration paid to sellers as a result of purchase price earn-out provisions are recorded as adjustments to intangible assets when the contingencies are settled. The net additional consideration paid by the Company in 2013 as a result of these adjustments totaled $627,000, all of which was allocated to goodwill. Of the $627,000 net additional consideration paid, $627,000 was issued as an other payable. The net additional consideration paid by the Company in 2012 as a result of these adjustments totaled $2,907,000, all of which was allocated to goodwill. Of the $2,907,000 net additional consideration paid, $2,907,000 was paid in cash.

As of June 30, 2013, the maximum future contingency payments related to all acquisitions totaled $135,199,000, all of which relates to acquisitions consummated subsequent to January 1, 2009.

ASC Topic 805 — Business Combinations is the authoritative guidance requiring an acquirer to recognize 100% of the fair values of acquired assets, including goodwill, and assumed liabilities (with only limited exceptions) upon initially obtaining control of an acquired entity. Additionally, the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements (such as earn-out purchase arrangements) at the acquisition date must be included in the purchase price consideration. As a result, the recorded purchase prices for all acquisitions consummated after January 1, 2009 include an estimation of the fair value of liabilities associated with any potential earn-out provisions. Subsequent changes in these earn-out obligations will be recorded in the consolidated statement of income when incurred. Potential earn-out obligations are typically based upon future earnings of the acquired entities, usually between one and three years.

As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the fair values of the estimated acquisition earn-out payables were re-evaluated and measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3). The resulting additions, payments, and net changes, as well as the interest expense accretion on the estimated acquisition earn-out payables, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, were as follows:
