Note
12.
Acquisition of Landair Holdings, Inc.
 
On
July 3, 2018,
we acquired
100%
of the outstanding stock of Landair Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (“Landair”), for
$91.2
million in cash and approximately
$15.5
million of debt of Landair, which we have paid in full. The
$91.2
million in cash includes our reimbursement obligation to Landair’s former owners of
$8.2
million related to our Internal Revenue Code Section
338
(h)(
10
) election, which is still subject to finalization. The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnification provisions.
 
Landair is a leading dedicated and for-hire truckload carrier, as well as a supplier of transportation management, warehousing and logistics inventory management services. Landair’s results have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Landair’s trucking operations’ results are reported within our Truckload segment, while Landair’s logistics operations’ results are reported within our Managed Freight segment.
 
The fair value of the total consideration transferred was
$106.7
million,
not
considering approximately
$0.8
million of cash balances acquired. The purchase price is subject to change based on finalization of the gross-up payment related to the
338
(h)(
10
) election as well as our ongoing evaluation of Landair's accounting principles for consistency with ours. The allocation of the preliminary purchase price is detailed as follows:

The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected cost synergies in the areas of insurance and claims, workers compensation, fuel, and purchases of revenue equipment. Additionally, Landair and the historical Company have limited customer overlap, and as such we expect to be able to cross-sell services between historical customers and those of Landair.

For the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2018,
the pro forma results include an immaterial amount of adjustments to conform Landair to the accounting policies of the Company related to operations and maintenance and insurance and claims. In addition, salaries, wages, and related expenses decreased by
$2.1
million related to sale bonuses, restricted shares granted to key retained employees, and non-recurring compensation paid to a prior owner of Landair. General supplies and expenses decreased by
$3.4
million related to non-recurring acquisition-related expenses. Depreciation and amortization increased by
$1.1
million due to the amortization of intangible assets as detailed in Note
13,
partially offset by a net decrease resulting from the depreciation of property, plant, and equipment using useful lives consistent with those utilized by the Company. Interest expense, net increased by approximately
$2.0
million as a result of the financing obtained by the Company to fund the Landair acquisition. Income tax expense was adjusted by approximately
$0.1
million for the effect of each of the aforementioned adjustments. Results for the
three
and
nine
months ended
September 30, 2018
exclude
two
days of Landair’s operations that occurred between the period ended
June 30, 2018
and our acquisition on
July 3, 2018,
but this effect is immaterial.
 
For the
three
and
nine
months ended
September 30, 2017,
the pro forma results include an immaterial amount of adjustments to conform Landair to the accounting policies of the Company related to operations and maintenance and insurance and claims. Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately
$0.6
million and
$1.7
million for the quarter and
nine
months, respectively, due to the amortization of intangible assets as detailed in Note
13,
partially offset by a net decrease resulting from the depreciation of property, plant, and equipment using useful lives consistent with those utilized by the Company. Interest expense, net increased
$1.0
million and
$3.0
million for the quarter and
nine
months, respectively, as a result of the financing obtained by the Company to fund the Landair acquisition. Income tax expense was adjusted by an immaterial amount for the effect of each of the aforementioned adjustments.
 
The pro forma adjustments have been made solely for informational purposes. The actual results reported by the consolidated company in periods following the acquisition
may
differ significantly from that reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for a number of reasons, including but
not
limited to cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies and the impact of the incremental costs incurred in integrating the
two
companies. As a result, the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations are
not
intended to represent and does
not
purport to be indicative of what the combined company’s results of operations would have been had the acquisition been completed on the applicable dates of this unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations. In addition, the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations do
not
purport to project the future results of operations of the consolidated company.
