2. Business Acquisitions and Investments

2013 Business Acquisition and Investment

Orange Electronic Equity Investment

In January 2013, we acquired an approximate 25% minority interest in Orange Electronic Co., Ltd. for $6.3 million in cash funded by our revolving credit facility.  Orange Electronic Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer of tire pressure monitoring system sensors and is located in Taiwan.  Our minority interest in Orange Electronic Co., Ltd. is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

European OE Business Acquisition

In February 2013, we acquired the original equipment business of Standard Motor Products Holdings Ltd. (“SMP Europe”), our former affiliate in the U.K., for £4.2 million ($6.5 million) in cash funded by our revolving credit facility.  SMP Europe was a distributor of original equipment parts that were primarily manufactured in our Bialystok, Poland manufacturing facility.  We anticipate incremental annual revenues from the acquisition to approximate $2 million.

Intangible assets acquired in the acquisition consisted of $3.8 million of customer relationships that will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 10 years and goodwill of $2 million.  Goodwill related to the acquisition was allocated to the Engine Management Segment. The goodwill reflects business specific knowledge, replacement cost of an assembled workforce, as well as the value of expected synergies.

Revenues included in our consolidated statements of operations for the SMP Europe acquisition from the date of acquisition through December 31, 2013 were not material.

2012 Business Acquisition

CompressorWorks Asset Acquisition

In April 2012, we acquired substantially all of the assets of CompressorWorks, Inc. for $38.6 million, which consisted of a purchase price of $37.4 million and a $1.2 million working capital adjustment.  The acquisition was paid for in cash funded by our revolving credit facility.  Prior to the acquisition, CompressorWorks, Inc. had manufacturing and distribution facilities in Dallas, Texas, and distributed a range of temperature control products including new compressors, fan clutches, and other A/C system and engine cooling products.

The allocation of purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based upon their fair values.  The following table presents the allocation of purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

Purchase price:				$	38,594
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Receivables	$	9,114
Inventory		22,736
Other current assets		60
Property, plant and equipment, net		1,427
Intangible assets		8,870
Goodwill		9,703
Current liabilities		(13,316	)
Net assets acquired				$	38,594

Intangible assets acquired of $8.9 million consists of customer relationships of $8 million that will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 7 years; trademarks and trade names of $0.5 million that will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 3 years; non-compete agreements of $0.2 million that will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 3 years; and leaseholds of $0.2 million that will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 2.3 years.  Goodwill of $9.7 million was allocated to the Temperature Control Segment and is deductible for income tax purposes.  The goodwill reflects relationships, business specific knowledge and the replacement cost of an assembled workforce associated with personal reputations, as well as the value of expected synergies.

Revenues included in our consolidated statement of operations for the CompressorWorks, Inc. acquisition were $44.3 million from the date of acquisition through December 31, 2012.
