On May 30, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Inmarsat Holdings, a privately held leading provider of global mobile satellite communications services. The Inmarsat Acquisition positions the Company as a leading global communications innovator with enhanced scale and scope to connect the world affordably, securely and reliably. The complementary assets and resources of the combined company position the Company to provide advanced new services in mobile and fixed segments, driving greater customer choice in broadband communications and narrowband services (including the Internet of Things (IoT)). These benefits and additional opportunities were among the factors that contributed to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of preliminary estimated goodwill of $969.2 million and $484.6 million which was recognized in the Company's satellite services and government systems segments, respectively. The goodwill recognized was not deductible for U.S. and foreign income tax purposes.

The consideration transferred of approximately $2.7 billion was comprised of $2.1 billion of the fair value of approximately 46.36 million shares of the Company’s common stock issued at the closing of the transaction and $550.7 million in cash consideration. In connection with the Inmarsat Acquisition, the Company recorded acquisition-related transaction costs of an insignificant amount and $30.8 million during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, and $9.7 million and $32.0 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The purchase price allocation is preliminary primarily due to the pending finalization of the Company’s valuation analysis and review of various tax attributes. The Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the preliminary estimates of their fair values, which is subject to adjustment for up to one year after the closing of the Inmarsat Acquisition as additional information is obtained. The preliminary purchase price allocation of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities in the Inmarsat Acquisition based on the preliminary estimated fair values as of May 30, 2023, adjusted since the closing of the Inmarsat Acquisition, primarily between property, equipment and satellites, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, is as follows:


	(In thousands)
Current assets	$	651,679
Property, equipment and satellites		4,164,139
Identifiable intangible assets		2,769,045
Other assets		411,931
Total assets acquired	$	7,996,794
Current liabilities		(592,237	)
Long-term debt, excluding short-term portion		(3,519,774	)
Other long-term liabilities		(2,659,376	)
Total liabilities assumed	$	(6,771,387	)
Goodwill		1,453,685
Total consideration transferred	$	2,679,092

Current liabilities and other long-term liabilities include approximately $29.6 million and $248.3 million, respectively, of unfavorable contract liabilities amortized into service revenue over a weighted average estimated useful life of approximately nine years. Estimated amounts assigned to identifiable intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives (which approximates the economic pattern of benefit) and are as follows as of May 30, 2023:


			Weighted
	Estimated Fair Value		Average Estimated Useful Life
	(In thousands)		(In years)
Orbital slots and spectrum assets	$	1,010,000		12
Customer relationships		1,345,000		11
Technology		100,000		7
Trade name		85,000		8
Other		229,045		4
Total identifiable intangible assets	$	2,769,045		11

The intangible assets acquired in the Inmarsat Acquisition were determined in accordance with the authoritative guidance for business combinations (ASC 805), based on estimated fair values using valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach to measure fair value.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the operating results of Inmarsat from the date of acquisition. Since the acquisition date on May 30, 2023, the Company recorded approximately $443.1 million and $1.0 billion in revenue during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, and $24.2 million and $159.3 million of net loss during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, with respect to the Inmarsat business (primarily in the Company’s satellite services segment, with a portion included in its government systems segment and an insignificant amount included in its commercial networks segment) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In November 2023, as a part of an important milestone in the Company’s integration program following the Inmarsat Acquisition and as part of the Company’s ongoing strategy to streamline operations and better serve the Company’s growing customer base, the Company completed work on the rationalization of roles in the Company’s global business, which is intended to achieve both operational and cost efficiencies. As part of the role rationalization, the Company reduced its global workforce and recorded total costs (primarily related to employee severance payments, benefits and related termination costs) of approximately $45 million during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023. These one-time costs were recorded within operating expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations across all three of the Company’s segments, with insignificant amounts remaining to be incurred and paid.

The unaudited financial information in the table below summarizes the combined results of operations for the Company and Inmarsat on a pro forma basis, as though the companies had been combined as of the beginning of fiscal year 2023, April 1, 2022. The pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only and may not be indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the related fiscal periods.
