Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | ACQUISITIONS SRS Acquisition On March 27, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire SRS, a leading residential specialty trade distribution company across several verticals serving the professional roofer, landscaper and pool contractor. On June 18, 2024, following the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable closing conditions, including receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals, the acquisition was completed and all merger consideration was transferred. Under the terms of the merger agreement, a subsidiary of The Home Depot, Inc. merged with and into Shingle Acquisition Holdings, Inc., the parent company of SRS, with Shingle Acquisition Holdings, Inc. as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. We believe the acquisition of SRS will accelerate the Company’s growth with the residential professional customer. The acquisition is expected to complement our existing capabilities and enable us to better serve complex project purchase occasions with the renovator/remodeler, while also establishing the Company as a leading specialty trade distributor across multiple verticals. We primarily used a combination of proceeds from commercial paper borrowings, the issuance of long-term debt, as well as cash on hand to fund the acquisition. See Note 5 for further information on the financing for the transaction, and below for a summary of preliminary purchase consideration. The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 “Business Combinations,” and SRS’s results of operations have been consolidated in the Company’s financial statements effective June 18, 2024. Acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred and were not material. Fair Value of Consideration Transferred. The following table summarizes total preliminary purchase consideration:
in millions |
Total cash consideration | $ | 17,707 |
Fair value of common stock issued (1) | 321 |
Total preliminary purchase consideration | $ | 18,028 |
————— (1) In connection with the acquisition, certain members of SRS’s management team concurrently reinvested a portion of their respective after-tax merger consideration proceeds into shares of the Company’s common stock. A portion of such shares of Company common stock are fully vested, and accordingly, the fair value of such shares was recorded as non-cash purchase consideration. A portion of such shares of Company common stock, which replaced legacy SRS stock-based awards, are subject to service-based vesting conditions over a three-year period and become forfeitable if such vesting conditions are not satisfied. Accordingly, a portion of the fair value of these shares was recorded as non-cash purchase consideration, and the remainder will be recorded as post-combination expense over the vesting period. The fair value of these shares, including the amount which will be recorded as post-combination compensation expense, is not material. Allocation of Consideration Transferred. We recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of June 18, 2024. The following table summarizes the recorded fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
in millions | Preliminary Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 161 |
Receivables | 1,832 |
Merchandise inventories | 1,988 |
Property and equipment | 789 |
Goodwill | 10,967 |
Intangible assets | 5,780 |
Other current and non-current assets | 744 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 22,261 |
Accounts payable | $ | 1,791 |
Other current liabilities | 584 |
Deferred tax liabilities (1) | 1,076 |
Other long-term liabilities | 782 |
Total liabilities assumed | $ | 4,233 |
————— (1) Primarily resulting from the difference in book and tax basis related to identifiable intangible assets. The preliminary fair values of identifiable intangible assets were determined by using certain estimates and assumptions that are not observable in the market. The Company used the multi-period excess earnings method to value the customer relationships intangible assets. The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair values of customer relationships included forecasted revenues, expected customer attrition rates, and discount rates. Determining the useful life of an intangible asset also requires judgment, as different types of intangible assets will have different useful lives. The preliminary fair values and estimated useful lives of identifiable intangible assets are as follows:
in millions | Weighted Average Useful Life (Years) |  | Preliminary Fair Value
Customer relationships | 20 |  | $ | 5,400 |
Trade names | 5 |  | 380 |
Total identifiable intangible assets |  |  | $ | 5,780 |
The goodwill arising from the acquisition is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired and is attributable to anticipated (i) growth acceleration in the residential professional customer market; (ii) expansion in high growth verticals including roofing; (iii) additional addressable market opportunities; (iv) enhanced delivery network capabilities; and (v) growth in sales force. We expect approximately $1.0 billion of goodwill related to the acquisition to be deductible for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes. At this time, all preliminary goodwill recognized has been allocated to our three SRS reporting units and no goodwill currently resides in our Primary segment. We have completed preliminary valuation analyses necessary to assess the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the amount of goodwill to be recognized as of the acquisition date. These fair values were based on management’s estimates and assumptions; however, the amounts indicated above are preliminary in nature and are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, there may be adjustments to the assigned values of acquired assets and liabilities. The primary areas that remain preliminary include, but are not limited to, intangible assets, including the preliminary assumptions used in their estimates of fair values and their respective estimated useful lives, the valuation of certain tangible assets, income taxes, and residual goodwill. The final determination of the fair values, purchase consideration, related income tax impacts and residual goodwill will be completed as soon as practicable, and within the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date as permitted under GAAP. Any adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period will be recorded in the reporting period in which the adjustment is determined. Measurement period adjustments recognized during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were immaterial. Results of Operations. Net sales attributable to SRS since the completion of the acquisition and included within our results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 27, 2024 totaled $2.9 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively. Net earnings attributable to SRS since the completion of the acquisition and included within our results of operations for both the three and nine months ended October 27, 2024 were immaterial. Pro forma results of operations would not be materially different as a result of the acquisition and therefore are not presented.
