Animal Hospital and Laboratory Acquisitions

The purchase price allocations for some of the 2016 animal hospital acquisitions included in the table below are preliminary; however, adjustments, if any, are not expected to be material. The measurement periods for purchase price allocations do not exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the aggregate consideration for our independent animal hospitals and labs acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, (in thousands):

____________________________


⁽¹⁾	Identifiable intangible assets include customer relationships, trademarks and covenants-not-to-compete. The weighted-average amortization period for the total identifiable intangible assets is approximately five years. The weighted-average amortization period for customer relationships, trademarks and covenants is approximately five years, seven years and five years, respectively.


⁽²⁾	We expect that $146.9 million and $35.5 million of the goodwill recorded for these acquisitions, as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, will be fully deductible for income tax purposes.

Included in the table above is Antech Diagnostics, Inc.'s March 31, 2015 acquisition of Abaxis Veterinary Reference Laboratory ("AVRL") for total consideration of $21.0 million.

CAPNA Acquisition

On May 1, 2016, we acquired an 80% ownership interest in CAPNA for a preliminary purchase price of $351.1 million. CAPNA, founded in 2010, is located in Las Vegas, Nevada and at the time of its acquisition, operated a network of 56 free standing animal hospitals in 18 states.

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price and the preliminary allocation of the purchase price (in thousands):



Consideration:
Cash	$	353,554
Cash acquired	(3,405		)
Cash, net of cash acquired	$	350,149
Holdbacks	1,000
Fair value of total consideration transferred	$	351,149

Allocation of the Purchase Price:
Tangible assets	$	13,548
Identifiable intangible assets ⁽¹⁾	147,500
Goodwill ⁽²⁾	281,311
Other liabilities assumed	(2,572		)
Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed	$	439,787
Noncontrolling interest	(88,638		)
Total	$	351,149

____________________________


⁽¹⁾	Identifiable intangible assets primarily include customer relationships, trademarks and covenants-not-to-compete. The weighted-average amortization period for the total identifiable intangible assets is approximately nine years. The amortization periods for customer relationships, trademarks and covenants is ten years, five years and five years, respectively.


⁽²⁾	As of June 30, 2016, we expect that $225.0 million of goodwill recorded for this acquisition will be deductible for income tax purposes.

The purchase price allocation for CAPNA is preliminary and is pending the valuation of certain items including, but not limited to, tangible and intangible assets, capital leases, operating leases, deferred income taxes and the noncontrolling interest. The final valuation of the net assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interest is expected to be completed as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

Pro Forma Information
