Summary of acquisitions during the year ended March 31, 2016 is given below:

Designit AS

On August 6, 2015, the Company obtained control of Designit AS (“Designit”) by acquiring 100% of its share capital. Designit is a Denmark based global strategic design firm specializing in designing transformative product-service experiences. The acquisition strengthens the Company’s digital offerings, combining engineering and transformative technology with human centered-design methods.

The acquisition was executed through a share purchase agreement for a consideration of 6,501 (EUR 93 million) which includes a deferred earn-out component of 2,108 (EUR 30 million), which is linked to achievement of revenues and earnings over a period of 3 years ending June 30, 2018. The fair value of the earn-out liability was estimated by applying the discounted cash flow approach considering discount rate of 13% and probability adjusted revenue and earnings estimates. This earn-out liability was fair valued at 1,287 and recorded as part of purchase price allocation.

Net assets acquired include 359 of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables valued at 392.

The goodwill of 4,046 comprises value of acquired workforce and expected synergies arising from the acquisition. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company concluded the fair value adjustments of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on acquisition. Comparatives have not been retrospectively revised as the amounts are not material.

During the year ended March 31, 2017, an amount of 83 was paid to the sellers representing earn-out payments for the first earn-out period.

Additionally, during the year ended March 31, 2017, as a result of changes in estimates of revenue and earnings over the remaining earn-out period, the fair value of earn-out liability was revalued at 293. The revision of estimates has also resulted in reduction in the carrying value of intangibles recognized on acquisition and an impairment charge has been recorded. Accordingly, a net gain of 1,032 has been recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, an amount of 97 was paid to the sellers as final payment for the earn-outs. Accordingly, a net gain of 192 has been recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

The acquisition was executed through a share purchase agreement for a consideration of 5,686 (EUR 78.8 million), net of 114 received during the year ended March 31, 2017 on conclusion of working capital adjustments which has resulted in reduction of goodwill.

During the year ended March 31, 2017, uncertainties around regulatory changes relating to the Affordable Care Act have led to a significant decline in the revenue and earnings estimates, resulting in revision of fair value of earn-out liability to 65. Further, this has resulted in reduction in the carrying value of certain intangible assets recognized on acquisition and accordingly an impairment charge has been recorded. Consequently, a net loss of 1,351 has been recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, an amount of 66 was paid to the sellers representing final earn-out payments.

If the acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2015, management estimates that consolidated revenue for the Company would have been 526,671 and the profit after taxes would have been 88,314 for twelve months ended March 31, 2016.
