ACQUISITIONS
Sundance
On October 6, 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of five theatres and 37 screens pursuant to the terms of a definitive purchase agreement under which Carmike acquired all of Sundance Cinemas, LLC ("Sundance").

The purchase price allocation is preliminary and certain items are subject to change. The primary area of the preliminary valuation that is not yet finalized relates to the determination of deferred tax asset and liability balances. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair values during the measurement period.
The total non-cash consideration representing liabilities assumed in the Sundance transaction was $2,242.
The fair value of the current assets and current liabilities acquired approximate their net book value at the acquisition date. The goodwill recognized of $25,115 is attributable primarily to expected synergies of achieving cost reductions and eliminating redundant administrative functions. The majority of the goodwill is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Identified intangible assets recognized of $200 represent favorable lease obligations and will be amortized to depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the respective lease term. The Company also recognized unfavorable lease obligations of $520 which will be amortized to theatre occupancy costs in the consolidated statements of operations over the respective lease term. The weighted-average useful life of the favorable lease obligation, prior to the exercise of any extension or renewals associated with the underlying lease is 5.0 years.
The results of Sundance's operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Revenue and net income of Sundance included in the Company's operating results for the year ended December 31, 2015 from the acquisition date are $7,394 and $668, respectively. Acquisition costs related to professional fees incurred as a result of the Sundance acquisition, during the year ended December 31, 2015 were approximately $300 and were expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. The majority of these expenses are not deductible for income tax purposes.

Pro Forma Results of Operations (Unaudited)
The following selected comparative unaudited pro forma results of operations information for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 assumes the Sundance acquisition occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2014, and reflects the full results of operations for the periods presented. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to indicate the results of operations which would actually have occurred had the combination been in effect on the dates indicated, or which may occur in the future. These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Sundance to reflect the fair value adjustments to property and equipment. These fair values also represent Level 3 measures within the fair value hierarchy prescribed by ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements.

Digiplex
On August 15, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Digital Cinema Destination, Corp. (“Digiplex”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Digiplex and Badlands Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the acquisition Digiplex became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Digiplex supports the Company’s growth strategy. Digiplex operated 21 theatres and 206 screens in 8 U.S. states. Upon completion of the merger, each issued and outstanding share of Digiplex Class A common stock and Class B common stock, except for any shares owned by the Company, Digiplex or any of their respective subsidiaries, was converted into the right to receive 0.1765 shares of the Company’s common stock, referred to as the “exchange ratio,” or approximately 1.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the aggregate. In addition to the shares issued, the Company also assumed a note payable of $9,099, which the Company paid subsequent to closing.
In December 2012, Digiplex, together with Start Media LLC (“Start Media”), formed a joint venture, Start Media Digiplex, LLC (“JV”) to acquire theatre assets. As of August 15, 2014, Digiplex owned 34% of the equity of the joint venture. On August 15, 2014, in conjunction with the acquisition, the Company paid cash of $10,978 to Start Media for its 66% interest in the joint venture. Also in connection with the acquisition, the Company paid cash of $181 in lieu of 30,000 shares of Digiplex common stock held in escrow for the former owners of two Digiplex theatres.
Prior to the acquisition, Digiplex had entered into agreements to acquire an additional four theatres and 33 screens (“pipeline theatres”). The Company completed its acquisition of one pipeline theatre and ten screens on August 22, 2014 and two pipeline theatres and 18 screens on September 26, 2014. Total cash consideration paid for the pipeline theatres was approximately $5,400 and resulted in an increase to Goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2014 of approximately $3,250. The transaction for one pipeline theatre was terminated subsequent to the acquisition. The acquisition of the three pipeline theatres was not significant individually or in the aggregate to the Company’s results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Goodwill

Management believes that the fair value of current assets and current liabilities acquired approximate their net book value at the acquisition date. The goodwill recognized of $43,157 is attributable primarily to expected synergies of achieving cost reductions and eliminating redundant administrative functions. The majority of the goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company completed its valuation of the fixed assets acquired which resulted in a decrease to property and equipment and an increase to goodwill of $668 and its calculation of income taxes related to the Digiplex acquisition which resulted in a decrease to deferred income taxes and an increase to goodwill of $486. No amounts have been recorded in net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2015 that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment for provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The Company finalized the Digiplex purchase price allocation during the year ended December 31, 2015.
Identifiable intangible assets recognized of $2,190 represent favorable lease obligations and will be amortized to depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the respective lease term. The Company also recognized unfavorable lease obligations of $5,980 which will be amortized to theatre occupancy costs in the consolidated statements of operations over the respective lease term. The weighted-average useful life of the favorable lease obligations, prior to the exercise of any extension or renewals associated with the underlying leases is 6.1 years.

The results of Digiplex’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Digiplex contributed revenue of $57,391 and $16,728 and net income (loss) of $5,381 and ($197) for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Acquisition costs related to professional fees incurred as a result of the Digiplex acquisition, during the year ended December 31, 2014 were approximately $3,477 and were expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The majority of these expenses are not deductible for income tax purposes.
Pro Forma Results of Operations (Unaudited)
The following selected comparative unaudited pro forma results of operations information for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 assumes the Digiplex acquisition occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2013, and reflects the full results of operations for the periods presented. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to indicate the results of operations which would actually have occurred had the combination been in effect on the dates indicated, or which may occur in the future. These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Digiplex to reflect the fair value adjustments to property and equipment. These fair values also represent Level 3 measures within the fair value hierarchy prescribed by ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements.

Muvico
On November 19, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of 9 entertainment complexes and 147 screens in three U.S. states pursuant to the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Muvico Entertainment, L.L.C (“Muvico”). The acquisition supports the Company’s growth strategy. In consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid $30,608 in cash and the assumption of lease-related financing obligations of approximately $19,101. The purchase price was paid using cash on hand.
The fair value of current assets and current liabilities acquired approximate their net book value at the acquisition date. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company completed its valuation related to the fair value of the net assets acquired from Muvico. The goodwill recognized of $24,415 is attributable primarily to expected synergies of achieving cost reductions and eliminating redundant administrative functions. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes over 15 years.
In addition, the Company incurred contingent liabilities associated with the purchase. The fair value of this contingent consideration as of the acquisition date, which represents the maximum amount of future reimbursement, was $750. The fair value of the contingent consideration and the resulting increase to Goodwill were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. No other adjustments to Goodwill related to the Muvico acquisition were made during the year ended December 31, 2014.

Cinemark
On August 16, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of three theatres and 52 screens from Cinemark USA, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. for $10,500 in cash and the assumption of lease-related financing obligations in the amount of $5,431. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company completed its valuation related to the fair value of the net assets acquired from Cinemark using facts and circumstances existing as of the measurement date. Total Goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition was $11,203. The results of operations of those theatres were not significant to the Company’s consolidated financial statements of operations and accordingly, the Company has not provided pro forma financial information relating to this acquisition. Acquisition costs associated with this purchase were not material.
MNM
On October 21, 2011, the Company completed its purchase of MNM Theatres for $10,820 including an estimate of the fair value of consideration that was contingent upon MNM’s earnings performance over the next three years. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $1,570 using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. This fair value measurement was based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represented a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The earnings performance period ended on October 31, 2014. As a result of the earnings performance of MNM Theatres, the Company recorded $849 to general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2014 which represents the contingent consideration to be paid. This amount was paid in January 2015 and is included in cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
