NOTE 5 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, Transcat acquired substantially all of the assets of Angel’s Instrumentation, Inc. (“Angel’s”), a Virginia-based provider of calibration services. This transaction aligned with the Company’s acquisition strategy of targeting businesses that expand its geographic reach and leverage its infrastructure while also increasing the depth and breadth of the Company’s service capabilities.

The Company applies the acquisition method of accounting for business acquisitions. Under the acquisition method, the purchase price of an acquisition is assigned to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company uses a valuation hierarchy, as further described under Fair Value of Financial Instruments in Note 1 above, and typically utilizes independent third-party valuation specialists to determine the fair values used in this allocation. Purchase price allocations are subject to revision within the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. All of the goodwill and intangible assets relating to the Angel’s acquisition have been allocated to the Service segment. Intangible assets related to the Angel’s acquisition are being amortized for financial reporting purposes on an accelerated basis over the estimated useful life of up to 10 years and are deductible for tax purposes. Amortization of goodwill related to the Angel’s acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The total purchase price paid for the assets of Angel’s was approximately $4.7 million, net of $0.1 million cash acquired. The following is a summary of the purchase price allocation, in the aggregate, to the fair value, based on Level 3 inputs, of Angel’s assets and liabilities acquired during the period presented:

		FY 2019
Goodwill		$	1,275
Intangible Assets – Customer Base			1,400
Intangible Assets – Covenant Not to Compete			100
			2,775
Plus:	Current Assets		787
	Non-Current Assets		1,200
Less:	Current Liabilities		(24	)
Total Purchase Price		$	4,738

Certain of the Company’s acquisition agreements, including Angel’s include provisions for contingent consideration and other holdback amounts. The Company accrues for contingent consideration and holdback provisions based on their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. As of September 29, 2018, $0.6 million of contingent consideration and $0.5 million of other holdback amounts were unpaid and reflected in current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. No contingent consideration or holdback amounts were paid during the first six months of fiscal year 2019. As of March 31, 2018, no contingent consideration or other holdback amounts were outstanding.

The results of the acquired businesses are included in Transcat’s consolidated operating results as of the dates the businesses were acquired. The following unaudited pro forma information presents the Company’s results of operations as if the acquisition of Angel’s had occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2019 and fiscal year 2018. The pro forma results do not purport to represent what the Company’s results of operations actually would have been if the transaction had occurred at the beginning of the period presented or what the Company’s operating results will be in future periods.

During each of the first six months of fiscal year 2019 and fiscal year 2018, acquisition costs of less than $0.1 million were recorded as incurred as general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, Transcat acquired substantially all of the assets of NBS Calibration, Inc. (“NBS”), an Arizona-based provider of calibration services. This transaction aligned with the Company’s acquisition strategy of targeting businesses that expand the Company’s geographic reach and leverage its infrastructure while also increasing the depth and breadth of the Company’s service capabilities. Due to the immaterial amount of the purchase price of the NBS assets, it has been included in the purchases of property and equipment, net, in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
