Business Combinations [Abstract] |
ACQUISITIONS AND STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS | NOTE B – ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the operating results for acquired entities from the respective dates of acquisition. We completed one acquisition in the first quarter of 2022, and one acquisition and one divestiture in the first quarter of 2021. We have not presented supplemental pro forma financial information for completed acquisitions or divestitures given their results are not material to our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. Further, transaction costs were immaterial to our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and were expensed as incurred. 2022 Acquisition On February 14, 2022, we completed our acquisition of Baylis Medical Company Inc. (Baylis Medical), a privately-held company which has developed the radiofrequency (RF) NRG™ and VersaCross™ Transseptal Platforms as well as a family of guidewires, sheaths and dilators used to support left heart access, which will expand our electrophysiology and structural heart product portfolios. The transaction consisted of an upfront cash payment of $1.471 billion, net of cash acquired, subject to closing adjustments. We are integrating the Baylis Medical business into our Cardiology division. Purchase Price Allocation The preliminary purchase price was comprised of the amounts presented below, which represent the preliminary determination of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final determination of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities will be completed within the measurement period in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations.
(in millions) |
Payment for acquisition, net of cash acquired | $ | 1,471 |
| $ | 1,471 |
The preliminary purchase price allocation was comprised of the following components:
(in millions) |  |
Goodwill | $ | 988 |  |
Amortizable intangible assets | 657 |  |
Other assets acquired | 113 |  |
Liabilities assumed | (280) |  |
Net deferred tax liabilities | (8) |  |
| $ | 1,471 |  |
Goodwill was primarily established due to synergies expected to be gained from leveraging our existing operations, as well as revenue and cash flow projections associated with future technologies and is not deductible for tax purposes. We allocated a portion of the preliminary purchase price to the specific intangible asset categories as follows:
| Amount Assigned (in millions) |  | Weighted Average Amortization Period (in years) |  | Risk-Adjusted Discount Rates used in Purchase Price Allocation
Amortizable intangible assets: |  |  |  |  |
Technology-related | $ | 622 |  |  | 11 |  | 11%
Other intangible assets | 36 |  |  | 11 |  | 11%
| $ | 657 |  |  |  |  |
2021 Acquisition On March 1, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Preventice Solutions, Inc. (Preventice), a privately-held company which offers a full portfolio of mobile cardiac health solutions and services, ranging from ambulatory cardiac monitors, to cardiac event monitors and mobile cardiac telemetry. The transaction consisted of an upfront cash payment of $925 million and up to an additional $300 million in a potential commercial milestone payment. We had been an investor in Preventice since 2015 and held an equity stake of approximately 22 percent immediately prior to the acquisition date. We remeasured the fair value of our previously-held investment based on the allocation of the purchase price according to priority of equity interests, which resulted in a $195 million gain recognized within Other, net in the first quarter of 2021. The transaction price for the remaining stake consisted of an upfront cash payment of $706 million, net of cash acquired, and up to approximately $230 million in a potential additional revenue-based milestone payment. The Preventice business is being managed by our Cardiology division. Purchase Price Allocation We accounted for the acquisition of Preventice as a business combination, and in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, we recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The final purchase price was comprised of the following components:
(in millions) |
Payment for acquisition, net of cash acquired | $ | 706 |
Fair value of contingent consideration | 221 |
Fair value of prior interest | 269 |
| $ | 1,197 |
(in millions) |
Goodwill | $ | 926 |
Amortizable intangible assets | 237 |
Other assets acquired | 65 |
Liabilities assumed | (32) |
| $ | 1,197 |
We allocated a portion of the purchase price to the specific intangible asset categories as follows:
| Amount Assigned (in millions) |  | Weighted Average Amortization Period (in years) |  | Risk-Adjusted Discount Rates used in Purchase Price Allocation
Amortizable intangible assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Technology-related | $ | 215 |  |  | 9 |  | 10%
Other intangible assets | 22 |  |  | 8 |  |  |  | 10% |  |
| $ | 237 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Goodwill was primarily established due to synergies expected to be gained from leveraging our existing operations, as well as revenue and cash flow projections associated with future technologies and is not deductible for tax purposes. 2021 Divestiture On March 1, 2021, we completed the divestiture of the Specialty Pharmaceuticals business to Stark International Lux S.A.R.L., and SERB SAS, affiliates of SERB, a European specialty pharmaceutical group, for a purchase price of approximately $800 million, subject to certain adjustments including cash on hand at the closing of the transaction. The agreement included the transfer of five facilities and approximately 280 employees globally. In the first quarter of 2021, we recognized a $6 million Gain on disposal of businesses and assets associated with the transaction within our accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note C – Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale to our audited financial statements contained in Item 8 of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information. Contingent Consideration Changes in the fair value of our contingent consideration liability during the first quarter of 2022 were as follows:
(in millions) |
Balance as of December 31, 2021 | $ | 486 |
Contingent consideration net expense (benefit) | 12 |
Contingent consideration payments | (41) |
Balance as of March 31, 2022 | $ | 456 |
As of March 31, 2022, the maximum amount of future contingent consideration (undiscounted) that we could be required to pay associated with our completed acquisitions was $964 million. The recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of our contingent consideration liability that we expect to be required to settle include the following significant unobservable inputs:
Contingent Consideration Liability | Fair Value as of March 31, 2022 | Valuation Technique | Unobservable Input | Range | Weighted Average(1) |  |
R&D, Regulatory and Commercialization-based Milestones | $147 million | Discounted Cash Flow | Discount Rate | 1% | - | 2% | 1% |  |
Probability of Payment | 80% | - | 100% | 92% |  |
Projected Year of Payment | 2022 | - | 2024 | 2023 |  |
Revenue-based Payments | $308 million | Discounted Cash Flow | Discount Rate | 4% | - | 14% | 6% |  |
Probability of Payment | 100% | 100% |  |
Projected Year of Payment | 2022 | - | 2024 | 2022 |  |
(1) Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the contingent consideration liability. For projected year of payment, the amount represents the median of the inputs and is not a weighted average. Projected contingent payment amounts related to research and development (R&D), regulatory and commercialization-based and revenue-based milestones are discounted back to the current period, primarily using a discounted cash flow model. Significant increases or decreases in projected revenues, probabilities of payment, discount rates or the time until payment is made would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement as of March 31, 2022. Strategic Investments The aggregate carrying amount of our strategic investments was comprised of the following:
| As of
(in millions) | March 31, 2022 |  | December 31, 2021
Equity method investments | $ | 226 |  |  | $ | 259 |
Measurement alternative investments(1) | 165 |  |  | 142 |
Publicly-held securities(2) | 8 |  |  | 10 |
Notes receivable | 7 |  |  | — |
| $ | 406 |  |  | $ | 412 |
(1) Measurement alternative investments are privately-held equity securities without readily determinable fair values that are measured at cost less impairment, if any, adjusted to fair value for any observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, recognized in Other, net within our accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations. (2) Publicly-held securities are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in Other, net within our accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations. These investments are classified as Other long-term assets within our accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets, in accordance with U.S. GAAP and our accounting policies. As of March 31, 2022, the cost of our aggregated equity method investments exceeded our share of the underlying equity in net assets by $237 million, which represents amortizable intangible assets, in-process research and development (IPR&D), goodwill and deferred tax liabilities.
