Acquisition
2. Acquisition
 
Effective July 7, 2013, the Company acquired 100 percent of the shares of Runners Point Warenhandelsgesellschaft mbH, (“Runners Point Group”) a specialty athletic store and online retailer based in Recklinghausen, Germany. The aggregate purchase price paid for the acquisition was $87 million in cash, subject to adjustment for finalization of the purchase price for working capital adjustments. At the date of acquisition, Runners Point Group operated 194 stores in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands. Additionally, there were 24 Runners Point Group franchise stores operating in Germany and Switzerland. The acquisition is intended to enhance the Company’s position in Germany and also provide additional banners to further diversify and expand the Company’s European business.  Also, the addition of the strong digital capabilities of Tredex, the e-commerce subsidiary of Runners Point Group, allows for the potential of accelerated e-commerce growth in Europe. 
 
The results of Runners Point Group are included in our consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date.
 
The following table summarizes allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired, based on the exchange rate in effect at the date of our acquisition of Runners Point Group. The Company has allocated the purchase price, in part, upon internal estimates of cash flows and considering the report of a third-party valuation expert retained to assist the Company. The allocation of the purchase price in the table below is preliminary and subject to change based on the finalization of the purchase price.

(1)     Due to foreign currency fluctuations, the U.S. dollar value of tradenames increased to $30 million as of November 2, 2013.
 
We determined that the tradenames have an indefinite life and will not be amortized. These tradenames will be tested annually for impairment, along with the goodwill recorded for the purchase. The value of the favorable leases will be amortized over the terms of the respective leases. 
 
The amount of goodwill expected to be tax deductible is $4 million.
