2011 Acquisitions

Demag Cranes AG Acquisition

On August 16, 2011, the Company acquired approximately 81% of the shares of Demag Cranes AG at a price of €45.50 per share, for total cash consideration of approximately $1.1 billion, bringing the Company’s ownership to 82%. Demag Cranes AG is active in the development, planning, production, distribution, and marketing of industrial cranes and hoists and port technology, as well as the provision of services in these areas. Demag Cranes AG’s business is highly complementary to the Company’s existing business both in terms of product and geographical fit. The acquisition of Demag Cranes AG is consistent with the Company’s strategy to expand its position as a globally active manufacturer of machinery and industrial products in niche market segments.

In January 2012, the Company entered into a Domination and Profit and Loss Transfer Agreement (the “DPLA”) with Demag Cranes AG that will become effective following the necessary shareholder approval and subsequent registration of the DPLA in the commercial register of Demag Cranes AG. Upon effectiveness of the DPLA and upon demand from outside shareholders of Demag Cranes AG, the Company will acquire their shares. Any outside shareholders of Demag Cranes AG that choose not to sell their shares to the Company will receive an annual guaranteed dividend.

Net Assets Acquired
The Company has applied purchase accounting to Demag Cranes AG and the results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements following the acquisition date. The application of purchase accounting under ASC 805 requires the recognition and measurement of the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The net assets and liabilities of Demag Cranes AG were recorded at their estimated fair value using Level 3 inputs. The noncontrolling interest was recorded at fair value using Level 1 inputs. See Note A – “Basis of Presentation,” for an explanation of Level 1 and 3 inputs. In valuing acquired assets and liabilities, fair value estimates are based on, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows, market rate assumptions for contractual obligations, actuarial assumptions for benefit plans, and appropriate discount and growth rates. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional and are based on the information that was available as of the date of this filing to estimate the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company believes that such information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but the Company is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values. Specifically, certain tax positions require further analysis and are not yet final. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value reflected are subject to change and such changes could be significant. The Company expects to finalize the valuation and complete the purchase price adjustments as soon as practicable but no later than one-year from the acquisition date.

During 2012, the Company made an election, for U.S. tax purposes, to characterize most aspects of the Demag Cranes AG acquisition as a purchase of assets, rather than as a purchase of shares of Demag Cranes AG. As a result of this election, a net $38.4 million deferred tax liability related to the investment basis difference was no longer required. Since the deferred tax liability was recorded in purchase accounting as an increase to goodwill, its elimination was recorded as a reduction to goodwill. In addition, during 2012, additional measurement period adjustments of $9.8 million related principally to uncertain tax position amounts and deferred tax liabilities for the investment basis differences in certain Demag Cranes AG subsidiaries were recorded as an increase to goodwill. The total measurement period adjustment in 2012 to MHPS goodwill for tax-related purchase accounting items was a decrease of $28.6 million and the Demag Cranes AG acquisition date balance sheet (shown below) and the December 31, 2011 Consolidated Balance Sheet have been adjusted to reflect such decrease.

The Company has not identified any material unrecorded pre-acquisition contingencies where the related asset, liability or impairment is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Prior to the end of the purchase price allocation period, if information becomes available which would indicate it is probable that such events had occurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, such items will be included in the final purchase price allocation and may cause adjustment to goodwill.

The acquisition date fair value of the Company’s 1% ownership of Demag Cranes AG held before August 16, 2011 was $14.6 million. The Company recognized a net gain of $3.0 million as a result of remeasuring to fair value its 1% ownership of Demag Cranes AG held before the business combination. The net gain is included in Other income (expense) – net in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2011. The acquisition date fair value of the shares held immediately before the business combination was based on quoted market prices.

The fair value of the noncontrolling interest in Demag Cranes AG at the acquisition date was $253.0 million. The valuation techniques and significant inputs used to measure the fair value of the noncontrolling interest was quoted market prices.

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the Demag Cranes AG assets acquired and liabilities assumed and related deferred income taxes as of acquisition date (in millions).

Goodwill of $821.5 million, resulting from the acquisition of a majority interest in Demag Cranes AG was assigned to the newly created MHPS segment. Goodwill consists of intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition which includes assembled workforce. As part of the final valuation of the acquisition, the Company will determine which entities and to what extent the benefit of the acquisition applies and, as required by U.S. GAAP, record the appropriate intangibles and goodwill to each entity. With the exception of tax deductible goodwill existing prior to the acquisition, the purchased intangibles and goodwill are not deductible for tax purposes. However, purchase accounting allows for the establishment of deferred tax liabilities on purchased intangibles (other than goodwill) that will be reflected as a tax benefit on the Company’s future Consolidated Statements of Income in proportion to and over the amortization period of the related intangible asset.
