BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

During the first three quarters of fiscal 2017, the Company acquired ten businesses, with total cash consideration of $333.9 million. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income include the operating results of the businesses from the dates of acquisition. The acquisitions were not significant individually or in the aggregate. The largest acquisition was Müller-Elektronik, a privately-held German company specializing in implement control and precision farming solutions. In the aggregate, the businesses acquired during the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 contributed less than two percent to the Company's total revenue during the first three quarters of fiscal 2017.

The Company determined the total consideration paid for each of its acquisitions as well as the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. For certain acquisitions completed in the last quarter of fiscal 2016 and the first three quarters of fiscal 2017, the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and may be adjusted as the Company obtains additional information, primarily related to adjustments for the true up of acquired net working capital in accordance with certain purchase agreements, and estimated values of certain net tangible assets and liabilities including tax balances, pending the completion of final studies and analyses. If there are adjustments made for these items, the fair value of intangible assets and goodwill could be impacted. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value are subject to change. Such changes could be significant. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of the net tangible and intangible assets as soon as practicable, but not later than one-year from the acquisition date.

The fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The fair value of intangible assets acquired is generally determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis. Acquisition costs directly related to the acquisitions, including the changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities, a net benefit of $0.3 million and a net expense of $6.1 million for the third quarter and the first three quarters of fiscal 2017, respectively, and net expenses of $0.9 million and $3.4 million for the third quarter and the first three quarters of fiscal 2016, respectively, were recorded as incurred and were included in General and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill

In March 2017, the information used to allocate resources and assess performance that is provided to the Company's chief operating decision maker, its Chief Executive Officer, changed to better reflect the Company's customer base and end markets. As further described in Note 6, the new reporting structure consists of four operating segments, each representing a single reporting unit: Buildings and Infrastructure, Geospatial, Resources and Utilities, and Transportation. Goodwill was reassigned to the new reporting units using the relative fair values and, as a result of this reassignment, an impairment assessment was performed immediately before and after the reorganization of the Company’s reporting structure. There was no goodwill impairment resulting from this assessment in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by segment for the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 were as follows:



	Buildings and Infrastructure			Geospatial			Resources and Utilities		Transportation		Total
(In millions)
Balance as of fiscal year end 2016	$	663.7		$	405.1		$	217.7	$	791.1	$	2,077.6
Additions due to acquisitions	2.5			—			89.1		51.8		143.4
