Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] |
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS | BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Endotronix, Inc. On August 19, 2024, the Company acquired all the remaining outstanding shares of Endotronix, Inc. ("Endotronix"). Endotronix is a developer of an implantable sensor for management of heart failure patients. The acquisition was completed primarily to expand the Company's structural heart portfolio into a new therapeutic area to address the large unmet needs of patients suffering from heart failure. Prior to the acquisition date, the Company had previously paid $60.0 million for an option to acquire Endotronix, which was historically recorded in Other Assets using the measurement alternative for fair value, and had an existing preferred stock investment in Endotronix of $10.0 million, which represented an ownership interest in Endotronix of approximately 7% (collectively, the "previously held equity interest"). In July 2024, the Company exercised its option to acquire the remaining equity interest in Endotronix which was accounted for as a step acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, "Business Combinations." Accordingly, the Company allocated the purchase price of the acquired company to the net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired based upon their preliminary estimated fair values. The Company remeasured the previously held equity interest to its fair value, as of the date of acquisition. The Company considered multiple factors in determining the fair value of the previously held equity interest, including, (i) the price negotiated with the selling shareholders for the remaining 93% interest in Endotronix and (ii) an income approach valuation model. As a result of the remeasurement of the previously held equity interest, the Company recognized a gain of $24.6 million in Other income, net in the third quarter of 2024. The purchase consideration for the acquisition of Endotronix was $798.8 million, which consisted of cash consideration of $649.1 million (net of cash acquired of $1.2 million), the fair value of the Company's previously held equity interest of $94.6 million, and the settlement of pre-existing relationships of $53.1 million. In addition, the Company agreed to pay an additional $2.0 million in a pre-specified milestone-driven payment that is dependent on the receipt of CE Mark approval for the CorPASS before June 30, 2025. The Company recognized a $2.0 million contingent consideration liability for the estimated fair value of the contingent milestone payments. The fair value of the contingent milestone payment will be remeasured each quarter, with changes in the fair value recognized within operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. In connection with the acquisition of Endotronix, the Company placed $35.0 million of the cash consideration paid at closing into escrow to satisfy any claims for indemnification made in accordance with the merger agreement and for purchase price adjustments. Acquisition-related costs of $5.6 million were recorded in Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The following table summarizes the fair value of consideration transferred and the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions):
Cash consideration paid at closing |  | $ | 650.3 |  |
Settlement of pre-existing relationships |  | 53.1 |  |
Fair value of previously held equity interest |  | 94.6 |  |
Fair value of contingent consideration |  | 2.0 |  |
Total purchase price |  | 800.0 |  |
Less: cash acquired |  | (1.2) |  |
Total purchase price, net of cash acquired |  | $ | 798.8 |  |
Current assets |  | $ | 7.7 |  |
Property and equipment, net |  | 12.6 |  |
Goodwill |  | 412.0 |  |
In-process research and development |  | 69.0 |  |
Developed technology |  | 385.0 |  |
Operating lease right-of-use assets |  | 9.9 |  |
Other assets |  | 0.7 |  |
Liabilities assumed |  | (26.3) |  |
Deferred tax liabilities |  | (70.6) |  |
Net assets acquired |  | 800.0 |  |
Less: cash acquired |  | (1.2) |  |
Total purchase price, net of cash acquired |  | $ | 798.8 |  |
The above purchase price allocation is preliminary and subject to revision for a one-year measurement period following the date of acquisition as additional information about the fair value of individual assets and liabilities becomes available. The preliminary measurement of intangible assets, goodwill, and deferred income taxes are subject to change. A change in the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired will change the amount of the purchase price allocable to goodwill. Goodwill includes Endotronix's assembled workforce and expected synergies the Company believes will result from the acquisition. Goodwill was assigned to the Company’s United States segment and is not deductible for tax purposes. The fair value of the developed technology was determined using the income approach. This approach determines fair value based on cash flow projections which are discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate of return. The discount rate used to determine the fair value of the developed technology was 15.5%. The fair value of the IPR&D was also determined using the income approach. IPR&D has been capitalized at fair value as an intangible asset with an indefinite life and will be assessed for impairment in subsequent periods. The discount rate used to determine the fair value of the IPR&D was 18.0%. Completion of successful design developments, bench testing, pre-clinical studies and human clinical studies are required prior to selling any product. The risks and uncertainties associated with completing development within a reasonable period of time include those related to the design, development, and manufacturability of the product, the success of pre-clinical and clinical studies, and the timing of regulatory approvals. The valuation assumed $47.1 million of additional research and development expenditures would be incurred prior to the date of product introduction. In the valuation, net cash inflows were modeled to commence in the United States in 2027 and in Japan and Europe in 2028. Upon completion of development, the underlying research and development asset will be amortized over its estimated useful life. The results of operations for Endotronix have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Pro forma results have not been presented as the results of Endotronix are not material in relation to the consolidated financial statements of Edwards Lifesciences. JC Medical, Inc. On July 22, 2024, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of JC Medical, Inc. ("JC Medical") for purchase consideration of $116.3 million, net of cash acquired. In addition, the Company agreed to pay up to an additional $200.0 million in pre-specified milestone-driven payments over the next 12 years. The Company recognized a $1.8 million contingent consideration liability for the estimated fair value of the contingent milestone payments. The fair value of the contingent milestone payments will be remeasured each quarter, with changes in the fair value recognized within operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company placed $12.0 million of the cash consideration paid at closing into escrow to satisfy any claims for indemnification made in accordance with the merger agreement. Any funds remaining 15 months after the acquisition date will be disbursed to JC Medical's former shareholders. Acquisition-related costs of $1.6 million were recorded in Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. JC Medical, Inc. is a structural heart company that is primarily engaged in the design and development of transcatheter valve replacement products for the minimally invasive treatment of structural heart disease. The acquisition was completed primarily to expand the Company's TAVR portfolio to enable the treatment of patients with aortic regurgitation. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. Tangible and intangible assets acquired were recorded based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded to goodwill. The following table summarizes the fair value of consideration transferred and the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions):
Cash consideration paid at closing |  | $ | 114.8 |  |
Fair value of contingent consideration |  | 1.8 |  |
Total purchase price |  | 116.6 |  |
Less: cash acquired |  | (0.3) |  |
Total purchase price, net of cash acquired |  | $ | 116.3 |  |
Current assets |  | $ | 0.3 |  |
Property and equipment, net |  | 0.3 |  |
Goodwill |  | 46.9 |  |
In-process research and development |  | 86.6 |  |
