Acquisition of Pilot Plastics

On February 1, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Pilot Plastics, headquartered in Akron, Ohio. Pilot Plastics is an injection molding manufacturer and the acquisition will expand the Company's injection molding capabilities and further enhance the Company's domestic manufacturing footprint. The purchase price was approximately $13.8 million, net of cash as of the closing date. The purchase price is subject to a holdback of approximately $1.7 million. To fund the Pilot Plastics acquisition, the Company borrowed on the Facility.

The acquisition of Pilot Plastics is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at their respective fair values on the acquisition date. The process of estimating the fair values of certain tangible assets, and assumed liabilities requires the use of judgment in determining the appropriate assumptions and estimates. The table below summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date, inclusive of the preliminary measurement period adjustments recorded as of September 30, 2023, which were not material. The measurement period remains open and future adjustments are not expected to have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the anticipated synergies of acquiring Maxxweld. As a result of the acquisition, goodwill of $5.1 million recognized is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Other intangible assets of $4.4 million include customer relationships, tradenames and backlog. The fair values of the customer relationships, trademarks and backlog were $4.0 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively. These fair values were determined using either the relief-from-royalty model or the multi-period excess earnings model, which are discounted cash flow models that rely on the Company's estimates. These estimates require judgment of future revenue growth rates, future margins, and the applicable weighted average cost of capital used to discount those estimated cash flows. The weighted average cost of capital is an estimate of the overall after-tax rate of return required by equity and debt market holders of a business enterprise. The estimated useful lives for customer relationships, trademarks and backlog were 15 years, 20 years, and 1 year, respectively. See Note 11 for additional information about goodwill and other intangible assets.

All measurement period adjustments were completed within a year from the acquisition date, and such adjustments did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and financial position.
