Precoat Acquisition
On May 13, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of the Precoat Metals business division (“Precoat”) of Sequa Corporation (“Sequa”), a portfolio company of global investment firm Carlyle, for a purchase price of approximately $1.3 billion (the "Precoat Acquisition"). Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, Precoat is the leading independent provider of metal coil coating solutions in North America. Precoat engages in the advanced application of protective and decorative coatings and related value-added services for steel and aluminum coil primarily serving the construction; appliance; heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC); container; transportation and other end markets. The acquisition represents a continued transition of the Company from a diverse holding company to a focused provider of coating and galvanizing services for critical applications.
The Precoat Acquisition was funded primarily with proceeds from the Term Loan B. See Note 7 for a description of the Term Loan B. The Company incurred acquisition costs of $11.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2022, which are included in Selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Precoat Metals contributed revenue of $43.7 million and operating income of $6.6 million to the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations from May 13, 2022, through May 31, 2022.
The Company accounted for the Precoat Acquisition as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. Goodwill from the acquisition of $534.6 million represents the excess purchase price over the estimated value of net tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed, and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The Company's chief operating decision maker will assess performance and allocate resources to Precoat separately from the Metal Coatings and Infrastructure Solutions segments; therefore, Precoat will be accounted for as a separate segment, the Precoat Metals segment. See Note 5 for more information about the Company's segments. Goodwill from the acquisition was allocated to the Precoat Metals segment. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Precoat Acquisition were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.
The Company has not finalized these estimates; therefore, the fair value estimates set forth below are subject to adjustment during the measurement period following the acquisition date. The final allocation of purchase consideration could include changes in the estimated fair value of working capital (including accounts receivable, inventories, contract assets, prepaid assets, account payable and accrued liabilities), right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax liabilities and other long-term liabilities. Adjustments in the purchase price allocation may require a change in the amount allocated to goodwill during the period in which the adjustments are determined.
When determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management made significant estimates, judgments and assumptions. The Company has engaged third-party valuation experts to assist in the purchase price allocation, the recorded valuation of property and equipment, intangible assets, pension benefit obligation and certain other assets and liabilities. Preliminary estimates from third-party experts along with the analysis and expertise of management have formed the basis for the preliminary allocation. Detailed analysis and review of the condition, existence and utility of assets acquired, and assumptions inherent in the estimation of fair value of intangible assets and pension obligation is currently ongoing. Management believes that the current information provides a reasonable basis for estimating fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These
estimates, judgments and assumptions are subject to change and should be treated as preliminary values as there could be significant changes upon final valuation. The Company expects to complete the final valuations within one year of the acquisition date.

DAAM Acquisition
On February 28, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all the outstanding shares of DAAM Galvanizing Co. Ltd. ("DAAM"), a privately held hot-dip galvanizing company based in Edmonton, Alberta Canada, for approximately $35.5 million. DAAM currently operates two galvanizing facilities in Canada; one located in Edmonton, Alberta and a second in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, as well as a service depot in Calgary, Alberta. The addition of DAAM expanded the Company's geographical coverage in the Northwest and enhanced the scope of metal coatings solutions in Canada. The business is included in the Company's Metal Coatings segment. The goodwill arising from this acquisition was allocated to the Metal Coatings segment the Company estimates that approximately 50% of the goodwill amount is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
The Company has engaged third-party valuation experts to assist in the purchase price allocation, the recorded valuation of property and equipment, intangible assets and certain other assets and liabilities. Preliminary estimates from third-party experts along with the analysis and expertise of management have formed the basis for the preliminary allocation. As of May 31, 2022, the purchase price allocation for certain assets acquired has not been finalized, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. As such, the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed should be treated as preliminary values as there could be significant changes upon final valuation.
