Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Acquisitions

NOTE 3: ACQUISITIONS

On April 3, 2023, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of TP Group Holding GmbH and Sixfold GmbH, which owned Transporeon, in an all-cash transaction. Transporeon is a Germany-based company and leading cloud-based transportation management software platform that connects key stakeholders across the industry lifecycle to positively impact the optimization of global supply chains, which aligns with our Connect and Scale strategy. Transporeon is reported as part of our Transportation segment.

The total purchase consideration was €1.9 billion or $2.1 billion, which included the repayment of outstanding Transporeon debt of $339.6 million. The acquisition was funded through a combination of cash on hand and debt. See Note 8 “Debt” of this report for more information.

In addition to Transporeon, we acquired two businesses in 2023 with total purchase consideration of $47.0 million. In the

aggregate, the two businesses acquired contributed less than 1% of our total revenue during 2023.

In 2022, we acquired two businesses, with total purchase consideration of $379.5 million. The largest acquisition was Bid2Win Software, LLC, a leading provider of estimating and operations solutions for the heavy civil construction industry. In the aggregate, the businesses acquired contributed less than 1% of our total revenue during 2022.

In 2021, we acquired AgileAssets, with total purchase consideration of $237.5 million. AgileAssets is a provider of SaaS solutions for transportation asset lifecycle management. The acquisition contributed less than 1% of our total revenue during 2021.

Acquisition costs of $35.0 million, $20.4 million, and $13.6 million in 2023, 2022, and 2021, were expensed as incurred and are included in Cost of sales and General and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Purchase Price Allocation

The fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was 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.

The following table summarizes the consideration transferred to acquire Transporeon and the preliminary allocation of the purchase price among the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the estimated useful lives of the identifiable intangible assets as of the date of the acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price is still preliminary as we finalize deferred income taxes. Preliminary estimates will be finalized within one year of the acquisition date.

	Fair Value as of the Acquisition Date		Estimated Useful Life
(In millions)
Total purchase consideration	$	2,082.6
Net tangible assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents	12.9
Accounts receivable, net	41.8
Other current assets	28.0
Non-current assets	24.7
Accounts payable	(4.1)
Accrued compensation and benefits	(9.7)
Deferred revenue	(16.5)
Other current liabilities	(47.2)
Non-current liabilities	(20.6)
Total net tangible assets acquired	9.3
Intangible assets acquired:
Customer relationships	759.5		11 years
Developed product technology	168.4		7 years
Trade name	11.9		5 years
Total intangible assets acquired	939.8
Deferred tax liability	(256.6)
Fair value of all assets/liabilities acquired	692.5
Goodwill	$	1,390.1

Goodwill consists of growth potential, synergies, and economies of scale expected from combining Transporeon’s operations with ours, together with the highly skilled and valuable assembled workforce. We do not expect the goodwill to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The Company corrected an error which resulted in an adjustment of $34 million between goodwill and developed technology intangibles, net of tax.
