Note 2: Acquisitions

During the first half of 2011, the Company acquired the stock of three businesses for a total cash purchase price, net of cash acquired, of $42.5 million.  Vescon Equipamentos Industriais Ltda. was acquired to strengthen the Company's surface product offerings in the Brazilian market and has been included in the DPS segment since the date of acquisition.  The remaining interest in Scomi Energy Sdn Bhd., previously a Cameron joint venture company, was acquired in order to strengthen the Company's process systems offerings in the Malaysian market.  On June 20, 2011, TS-Technology AS, a Norwegian company, was acquired to enhance the Company's water treatment technology offerings.  The results of both the Scomi Energy Sdn Bhd and TS-Technology AS businesses have been included in the PCS segment since the dates of the respective acquisitions.

Preliminary goodwill recorded from these acquisitions was approximately $35.9 million, of which approximately $20.1 million is deductible for tax purposes.  The Company is still awaiting significant information relating to the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired businesses in order to finalize the purchase price allocations.
