NOTE C — ACQUISITION

On June 15, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the common stock of Panther for $180.0 million in cash, net of cash acquired. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand and a $100.0 million secured Term Loan (see Note F). The results of Panther’s operations subsequent to the acquisition date have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The acquisition of Panther enhances the Company’s end-to-end logistics solutions and expands the Company’s customer base and business diversification. Panther is reported as the Premium Logistics and Expedited Freight Services operating segment (see Note K).

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities at the acquisition date. The Company is in the process of making a final determination of acquired assets and liabilities, with remaining matters primarily relating to net operating loss carryovers and certain other items; thus, the provisional measurements are subject to change. A measurement period adjustment was recorded to Panther’s goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as presented in Note D.

	Preliminary
	Allocation
	(in thousands)

Accounts receivable	$	31,824
Prepaid expenses	5,205
Deferred income taxes	1,796
Property and equipment (excluding acquired software)	5,678
Software	31,600
Intangible assets	79,000
Other assets	3,866
Total identifiable assets acquired	158,969

Accounts payable	13,344
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	7,436
Other liabilities	228
Deferred income taxes	29,294
Total liabilities	50,302

Net identifiable assets acquired	108,667
Goodwill	71,372
Cash paid, net of cash acquired	$	180,039

The estimated fair value of accounts receivable acquired was $31.8 million, having a gross contractual amount of $32.3 million as of June 15, 2012 and $0.5 million expected by the Company to be uncollectible. The value assigned to acquired software reflects estimated reproduction costs, less an obsolescence allowance. The recorded amount of acquired software is expected to be amortized on a straight-line basis over seven years. Software is included within property, plant and equipment in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. See Note D for further discussion of acquired goodwill and intangibles.

The following unaudited pro forma supplemental information presents the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 (presented in thousands, except per share data) as if the Panther acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2011:

Revenue	$	492,597
Loss before income taxes	$	(22,600	)
Net loss	$	(13,562	)
Diluted EPS	$	(0.53	)

The pro forma results of operations are based on historical information adjusted to include the pro forma effect of applying the Company’s accounting policies; eliminating sales transactions between the Company and Panther; adjusting amortization expense for the estimated acquired fair value and the amortization periods of software and intangible assets; adjusting interest expense and interest income for the financing of the acquisition; eliminating transaction expenses related to the acquisition; and the related tax effects of these adjustments. The pro forma information has also been adjusted for the impact on the income tax provision or benefit, as applicable, resulting from changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances which were primarily attributable to the Panther acquisition. As a result, the pro forma information excludes $4.7 million ($0.18 per share) of deferred tax valuation allowances (see Note E). The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not reflect either the realization of potential cost savings or any related integration costs. Certain business synergies and cost savings may result from the Panther acquisition, although there can be no assurance these will be achieved. This pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the acquisition had occurred as of the date indicated, nor does the pro forma information intend to be a projection of results that may be obtained in the future.
