Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | ACQUISITIONS We believe that our acquisitions of businesses and other assets enhance our existing businesses by either expanding our geographic range and customer base or expanding our existing product lines. During the third quarter of 2018, we acquired substantially all of the assets of a software company for $25.0 million, including a holdback payment of $1.0 million, to offset possible pre-acquisition indemnity claims, and a contingent payment of $1.5 million. The holdback payment, less settlement of any indemnity claims, will be paid on the second anniversary of the acquisition date, while the contingent payment will be paid within 36 months if certain commercial goals are achieved. This acquisition expands the IDEXX suite of veterinary software offerings and further underscores our commitment to investing in software innovations that advance the veterinary profession. This acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The fair value of the assets acquired consist of $20.3 million of goodwill, representing synergies with our current software product offerings, $2.6 million in technology intangible assets, $2.4 million in customer relationship intangible assets, and $0.3 million of net tangible liabilities. The goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Pro forma information has not been presented for this acquisition because such information is not material to our financial statements. The results of operations have been included in our CAG segment since the acquisition date. The acquisition expenses incurred were not material.
