Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | 16. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Acquisition of Mitec On December 2, 2019, AAM completed our acquisition of certain operations of Mitec Automotive AG (Mitec), under which we acquired $20.2 million of net assets for a purchase price of $9.4 million, which was funded entirely with available cash. We recognized a gain on bargain purchase of $10.8 million, which was primarily the result of Mitec's insolvency prior to the acquisition. This gain is presented in the Gain on bargain purchase of business line item in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2019. The operating results of Mitec for the period from our acquisition date through December 31, 2019, were insignificant to AAM's Consolidated Statement of Operations for this period. Further, we have not disclosed pro forma revenue and earnings for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, as the operating results of Mitec would be insignificant to AAM's consolidated results for these periods. Acquisition of MPG On April 6, 2017, AAM completed our acquisition of 100% of the equity interests of MPG for a total purchase price of approximately $1.5 billion plus the assumption of approximately $1.7 billion in net debt (comprised of approximately $1.9 billion in debt less approximately $0.2 billion of MPG cash and cash equivalents). Under the terms of the agreement and plan of merger (Merger Agreement), each share of MPG common stock (other than MPG excluded shares as defined in the Merger Agreement) was converted into the right to receive (a) $13.50 in cash, without interest, and (b) 0.5 of a share of AAM common stock (Merger Consideration). Further, MPG stock options outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger were accelerated and holders of the stock options received in cash the Merger Consideration less the per share exercise price of the MPG stock options. All MPG restricted shares and restricted stock unit awards outstanding under an MPG equity plan were also accelerated and each holder thereof received the Merger Consideration for each restricted share or restricted stock unit award of MPG common stock. MPG provides highly-engineered components for use in powertrain and safety-critical platforms for the global light, commercial and industrial markets. MPG produces these components using complex metal-forming manufacturing technologies and processes for a global customer base of OEMs and Tier I suppliers, which help their customers meet fuel economy, performance and safety standards. Our acquisition of MPG has contributed significantly to diversifying our global customer base and end markets. Our acquisition of MPG was accounted for under the acquisition method under Accounting Standards Codification 805 Business Combinations (ASC 805) with the purchase price allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired company based on the respective fair values of the assets and liabilities. The following represents the final fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting from the acquisition, as well as the calculation of goodwill:
(in millions) | April 6, 2017
Cash consideration | $ | 953.5 |
Share consideration | 576.7 |
Total consideration transferred | $ | 1,530.2 |
Fair value of MPG noncontrolling interests | 3.6 |
Total fair value of MPG | $ | 1,533.8 |
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 202.1 |
Accounts receivable | 403.1 |
Inventories | 199.0 |
Prepaid expenses and other long-term assets | 119.9 |
Property, plant and equipment | 971.8 |
Intangible assets | 1,223.1 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 3,119.0 |
Accounts payable | 287.8 |
Accrued expenses and other | 137.7 |
Deferred income tax liabilities | 580.2 |
Debt | 1,918.7 |
Postretirement benefits and other long-term liabilities | 54.1 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 140.5 |
Goodwill | $ | 1,393.3 |
Goodwill resulting from the acquisition is primarily attributable to anticipated synergies and economies of scale from which we expect to benefit as a combined entity. None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. We recognized $1,223.1 million of amortizable intangible assets for customer platforms, customer relationships, developed technology and licensing agreements as a result of our acquisition of MPG. These intangible assets were assigned useful lives ranging from five to 17 years. The intangible assets were valued using primarily the relief from royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method, both of which utilize significant unobservable inputs. These inputs are defined in the fair value hierarchy as Level 3 inputs, which require management to make estimates and assumptions regarding certain financial measures using forecasted or projected information. AAM had an existing accounts payable balance of $12.4 million with MPG as of the date of acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, this pre-existing accounts payable balance was settled and AAM accounted for this settlement separately from the acquisition. This resulted in a $12.4 million reduction in the purchase price and this portion of the cash paid to acquire MPG has been reflected as an operating cash outflow in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2017. Included in Net sales and Net income attributable to AAM for the period from the acquisition date on April 6, 2017 through December 31, 2017 was $2,022 million and approximately $320 million, respectively, attributable to MPG. The $320 million of Net income attributable to MPG in 2017 included a tax benefit of approximately $227 million as a result of remeasuring our net deferred tax liabilities in the U.S. subsequent to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. For the year ended December 31, 2017, AAM's consolidated income before income taxes was $340.0 million, of which $93.5 million related to MPG. Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information Pro forma net sales for AAM, on a combined basis with MPG for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, were $7.0 billion and $6.6 billion, respectively, excluding MPG sales to AAM during those periods. Pro forma net income amounts for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were approximately $400 million and $220 million, respectively. Pro forma earnings per share amounts for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $3.51 per share and $1.95 per share, respectively. The pro forma net income amounts for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 have been adjusted by approximately $20 million for a one-time charge for MPG stock-based compensation that was accelerated and settled on the date of acquisition, approximately $25 million related to the step-up of inventory to fair value as a result of the acquisition, and approximately $55 million in acquisition-related costs. This adjustment resulted in a reclassification of approximately $65 million, net of tax, from pro forma net income for 2017 into pro forma net income for 2016, as we are required to disclose the pro forma amounts as if our acquisition of MPG had been completed on January 1, 2016. The disclosure of pro forma net sales and earnings is for informational purposes only and does not purport to indicate the results that would actually have been obtained had the merger been completed on the assumed date for the periods presented, or which may be realized in the future. Acquisition of USM Mexico On March 1, 2017, AAM completed our acquisition of 100% of USM Mexico, a former subsidiary of U.S. Manufacturing Corporation (USM). The purchase price was funded with available cash and the acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method. USM Mexico includes USM's operations in Guanajuato, Mexico, which has historically been one of the largest suppliers to AAM's Guanajuato Manufacturing Complex. This acquisition allowed AAM to vertically integrate the supply chain and helped ensure continuity of supply for certain parts to our largest manufacturing facility. The following represents the final fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting from the acquisition, as well as the calculation of goodwill:
(in millions) | March 1, 2017
Contractual purchase price | $ | 162.5 |
Adjustment to contractual purchase price for working capital settlement | 2.5 |
Adjustments to contractual purchase price for capital equipment | 4.9 |
Adjustment to contractual purchase price for settlement of existing accounts payable balance | (22.8 | )
Cash acquired | (0.5 | )
Adjusted purchase price, net of cash acquired | $ | 146.6 |
Accounts receivable | 1.1 |
Inventories | 4.8 |
Prepaid expenses and other | 3.6 |
Property, plant and equipment | 38.4 |
Intangible assets | 31.7 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 79.6 |
Accounts payable | 10.8 |
Accrued expenses and other | 2.7 |
Deferred income tax liabilities | 1.2 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 64.9 |
Goodwill | $ | 81.7 |
None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. AAM had an existing accounts payable balance of $22.8 million with USM Mexico as of the date of acquisition. As a result of our acquisition, this pre-existing accounts payable balance was settled and AAM accounted for this settlement separately from our acquisition. This resulted in a $22.8 million reduction in the purchase price and this portion of the cash paid to acquire USM Mexico has been reflected as an operating cash outflow in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2017. The operating results of USM Mexico for the period from our acquisition date through December 31, 2017, were insignificant to AAM's Consolidated Statement of Income for this period. Further, we have not disclosed pro forma revenue and earnings for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, as the operating results of USM Mexico would be insignificant to AAM's consolidated results for these periods.
