(2)  Acquisitions

 

In April 2012, we acquired all of the capital stock of Computer Software Associates, Inc. (“CSA”) for a cash purchase price of

$9.4 million, net of cash acquired of $437,000.  CSA is a reseller of Tyler’s Infinite Visions school enterprise solution, and sells proprietary CSA tax and recording solutions to county governments, primarily in the Northwest.  In connection with this transaction we acquired total tangible assets of approximately $1.3 million and assumed liabilities of approximately $1.9 million.  We recorded goodwill of approximately $4.6 million, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, and other intangible assets of approximately $5.3 million.  The $5.3 million of intangible assets is attributable to customer relationships, acquired software and trade name that will be amortized over a weighted average period of approximately 11 years.

 

In March 2012, we acquired all the capital stock of UniFund, L.L.C. (“UniFund”) for a cash purchase price of $4.6 million, net of cash acquired of $780,000.  UniFund provides enterprise resource planning solutions to schools and local governments, primarily in the Northeast.  UniFund is also a reseller of Tyler’s Infinite Visions school enterprise solution. In connection with this transaction we acquired total tangible assets of approximately $745,000 and assumed liabilities of approximately $1.5 million.   We recorded goodwill of approximately $1.1 million, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, and other intangible assets of approximately $4.3 million. The $4.3 million of intangible assets is attributable to customer relationships and acquired software that will be amortized over a weighted average period of approximately 11 years.

 

We recorded combined goodwill of approximately $5.7 million in connection with the acquisitions of CSA and UniFund which are both resellers of Tyler’s Infinite Visions school enterprise solution.  We believe likely market participants for these transactions would be software companies with a presence in the K-12 school market.  Therefore, the combined goodwill of $5.7 million arising from these acquisitions is primarily attributed to our ability to maximize the value of the customer base through Tyler’s software product suite that targets the K-12 school market and to a much lesser extent, the assembled workforces of CSA and UniFund.   The operating results of CSA and UniFund are included with the operating results of the Enterprise Software Solutions segment since their date of acquisition.

 

In January 2012, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Akanda Innovation, Inc., a provider of web-based solutions to the public sector which are integrated with our property tax software, for a total purchase price of $2.9 million.  The purchase price included certain liabilities we assumed of approximately $800,000, resulting in net cash paid to the sellers of $2.1 million, of which $900,000 was paid prior to December 31, 2011.   We recorded goodwill of approximately $1.0 million, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes, and acquired software of approximately $1.9 million that will be amortized over five years.  The operating results of Akanda are included with the operating results of the Appraisal and Tax Software Solutions and Services segment since the date of acquisition.

 

Our balance sheet as of June 30, 2012 reflects the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
