Canyon’s products, technology and customers were very similar to those of Crissair, Inc.

•     It acquired the assets of Felix Tool & Engineering, Inc. (“Felix Tool”) for a purchase price of $1.2 million in cash. The purchase price was allocated to property, plant and equipment and inventory based on fair market value at the date of acquisition and there were no intangible assets recorded upon the transaction.

It acquired the assets of Finepoint Marketing, Inc. (“Finepoint”) for a purchase price of $2.5 million.

All of the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the respective purchase prices were allocated to the assets (including intangible assets) acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The financial results from these acquisitions have been included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition. Pro forma financial information related to the Company’s acquisitions was not presented as it was not significant to the Company’s results of operations. None of the goodwill recorded as part of the acquisitions mentioned above is expected to be deductible for U.S. Federal or state income tax purposes.
