Acquisitions | Acquisitions Fiscal Year 2024 Transactions On October 6, 2023, the Company acquired an 80% controlling ownership in Purple Wave, an online offsite heavy equipment auction company.

Under U.S. GAAP, the fair value of the merger consideration paid for Purple Wave was $112.1 million and was determined on the basis of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on October 6, 2023. Substantially all of the merger consideration has preliminarily been allocated to intangible assets, including goodwill. The fair value of the 20% redeemable noncontrolling interest in Purple Wave was $25.2 million, and was estimated by applying the transaction method.
