Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Acquisitions, Asset Purchases and Investments | ACQUISITIONS, ASSET PURCHASES AND INVESTMENTS 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. From time to time we may acquire small reference laboratory or radiology practices that we account for as either asset purchases or business combinations. Asset Purchases and Investments During the second quarter of 2022, we entered into two arrangements to license intellectual property for which we paid $50.0 million and accrued $30.0 million in subsequent payments. The $80.0 million in the aggregate was charged to research and development expense for these license rights. These two arrangements were treated as asset acquisitions under U.S. GAAP and resulted in the full amount being expensed to research and development expense as in-process research and development costs with no alternative future use. The acquisition of these licensing arrangements supports new instrument platform advancements. The expense was recorded in our CAG segment. We also purchased $25.0 million of preferred shares for a noncontrolling minority interest in one of these entities. We have elected to measure the investment as an equity security investment, under ASC 321, “Investment - Equity Securities,” and recorded the investment at cost. The investment is included in other long-term assets. During the first quarter of 2022 we made a $10.0 million payment for a perpetual intellectual property license, which will be amortized over 10 years and included in our CAG segment. Business Combinations During the fourth quarter of 2021, we acquired the shares of a reference laboratory located in Finland for approximately $13.4 million in cash, including a holdback of approximately $1.4 million. This acquisition expands our international reference laboratory presence and was accounted for as a business combination. The fair values of the assets acquired consist of customer relationship intangibles of approximately $7.4 million, with a life of 10 years; a non-compete agreement of approximately $0.8 million, with a life of 3 years; approximately $6.9 million of goodwill, representing synergies within our broader CAG portfolio; and approximately $1.7 million in net tangible liabilities, including deferred taxes associated with the acquired intangible assets. Goodwill related to this acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma information has not been presented for this acquisition because such information is not material to the financial statements. The results of operations have been included in our CAG segment since the acquisition date. The acquisition expenses were not material. During the first quarter of 2021, we acquired the shares of a reference laboratory located in Switzerland for approximately $5.5 million in cash, including holdback and contingent payments of approximately $1.1 million. This acquisition expands our international reference laboratory presence and was accounted for as a business combination. The fair value of the assets acquired consists of approximately $4.3 million in intangible assets, primarily for customer relationships, which will be amortized over 9 years; approximately $1.8 million for goodwill, representing synergies within our broader CAG portfolio; and approximately $0.6 million of liabilities, including deferred taxes associated with the acquired intangible assets. Goodwill related to this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma information has not been presented for this acquisition because such information is not material to the financial statements. The results of operations have been included in our CAG segment since the acquisition date. The acquisition expenses were not material.
