Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
Acquisitions Acquisitions
 
The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” in which assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. The operating results of the acquired business are included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of the acquisition.

Embed

On April 12, 2022, the Company acquired Embed Ltd. (“Embed”). Founded in 2005, Embed is a proven provider of embedded software and firmware developed for a broad range of applications serving transportation end markets. The business is included
in the commercial vehicle business within the Company's Transportation segment. The acquisition was funded with the Company’s cash on hand. The total purchase consideration was $9.2 million, net of cash.

Carling Technologies

On November 30, 2021, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of Carling Technologies, Inc. (“Carling”), pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 19, 2021. Founded in 1920, Carling has a leading position in switching and circuit protection technologies with a strong global presence in commercial vehicle, marine and datacom/telecom infrastructure markets. At the time of acquisition, Carling had annualized sales of approximately $170 million. The operations of Carling are included in the commercial vehicle business within the Company's Transportation segment. The purchase price for Carling Technologies was approximately $315.5 million subject to a working capital adjustment.

The acquisition was funded with cash on hand. The total purchase consideration of $314.1 million, net of cash, has been allocated, on a preliminary basis, to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as of the completion of the acquisition, based on preliminary estimated fair values. The purchase price allocation is preliminary because the evaluations necessary to assess the fair values of the net assets acquired are still in process. The primary area not yet finalized relates to the completion of the valuation of certain acquired income tax assets and liabilities. As a result, these allocations are subject to change during the purchase price allocation period as the valuations are finalized.

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Carling acquisition:

(in thousands)Purchase Price

Goodwill97,917 
Other non-current assets4,007 
Current liabilities(21,495)
Other non-current liabilities(36,294)
 $314,094 

All Carling goodwill, other assets and liabilities were recorded in the Transportation segment and are reflected in the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific geographic areas. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition consists largely of the Company’s expected future product sales and synergies from combining Carling’s products and technology with the Company’s existing commercial vehicle products portfolio. Goodwill resulting from the Carling acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

During the six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company paid $0.5 million related to final working capital adjustment and made measurement period adjustments to reduce the fair value of property, plant and equipment of $7.0 million, inventories of $0.8 million, net accounts receivable of $0.6 million and an increase in intangible assets attributable to customer relationships intangible assets of $0.5 million. As a result of these adjustments along with a corresponding reduction of deferred tax liabilities of $1.7 million, goodwill was increased by $5.6 million.

As required by purchase accounting rules, the Company recorded a $6.4 million step-up of inventory to its fair value as of the acquisition date based on the preliminary valuation. The step-up was amortized as a non-cash charge to cost of sales during the fourth quarter of 2021 and first quarter of 2022, as the acquired inventory was sold, and reflected as other non-segment costs. The Company recognized a non-cash charge of $4.8 million to cost of sales during the six months ended July 2, 2022.

Hartland Controls
On January 28, 2021, the Company acquired Hartland Controls ("Hartland"), a manufacturer and leading supplier of electrical components used primarily in heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) and other industrial and control systems applications with annualized sales of approximately $70 million. The purchase price for Hartland was $111.0 million and the operations of Hartland are included in the Industrial segment.

The total purchase consideration of $108.5 million, net of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as of the completion of the acquisition, based on estimated fair values. As of July 2, 2022, the Company had restricted cash of $1.7 million in an escrow account for general indemnification purposes.

The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Hartland acquisition:
