Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisition | Acquisitions In 2016, we completed the acquisition of Kepware (on January 12, 2016) and Vuforia (on November 3, 2015), in 2015, we completed the acquisition of ColdLight (on May 7, 2015). The results of operations of these acquired businesses have been included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on their respective acquisition dates. Our results of operations prior to these acquisitions, if presented on a pro forma basis, would not differ materially from our reported results. These acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded at their estimated fair values as of the respective acquisition date. The fair values of intangible assets for Kepware and ColdLight were based on valuations using an income approach, with estimates and assumptions provided by management of the acquired companies and PTC. The fair values of intangible assets for Vuforia were based on valuations using a cost approach which requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating costs to reproduce an asset. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets as well as the Kepware and ColdLight contingent consideration liabilities requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related costs were $1.6 million, $3.5 million and $8.9 million in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Acquisition-related costs include direct costs of completing an acquisition (e.g., investment banker fees and professional fees, including legal and valuation services) and expenses related to acquisition integration activities (e.g., professional fees, severance, and retention bonuses). In addition, subsequent adjustments to our initial estimated amounts of contingent consideration, primarily net present value changes, are included within acquisition-related charges. These costs are classified in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. 2016 Acquisitions Kepware On January 12, 2016, we acquired all of the ownership interest in Kepware, Inc. for $99.4 million in cash (net of cash acquired of $0.6 million) and, $16.9 million representing the fair value of contingent consideration payable upon achievement of targets described below. We borrowed $100.0 million under our existing credit facility in January of 2016 to fund the acquisition. The acquisition of Kepware's KEPServerEX® communication platform enhanced our portfolio of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, and accelerated our entry into the factory setting and industrial IoT. At the time of the acquisition, Kepware had historical annualized revenues which were immaterial to our financial results. Kepware added approximately $16 million to our 2016 revenue and approximately $15 million in costs and expenses. The purchase price allocation resulted in $77.1 million of goodwill, which will be deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible assets of $34.5 million includes purchased software of $28.7 million, customer relationships of $5.2 million and trademarks of $0.6 million, which are being amortized over useful lives of 10 years, 10 years and 6 years, respectively, based upon the pattern in which economic benefits related to such assets are expected to be realized. The resulting amount of goodwill reflects our expectations of the following benefits: 1) Kepware’s protocol translators and connectivity platform strengthen the ThingWorx technology platform and accelerate our entry into the factory setting and Industrial IoT (IIoT); 2) cross-selling opportunities for our integrated technology platforms in the critical infrastructure markets to drive revenue growth; and 3) Kepware’s 20 years of manufacturing experience strengthens our manufacturing talent and domain expertise and provides support for our manufacturing strategy initiatives. Vuforia On November 3, 2015, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, we acquired the Vuforia business from Qualcomm Connected Experiences, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated, for $64.8 million in cash (net of cash acquired of $4.5 million). We borrowed $50.0 million under our credit facility to finance this acquisition. The acquisition of Vuforia's augmented reality (AR) technology platform enhances our technology portfolio and accelerates our strategy as a leading provider of technologies and solutions that blend the digital and physical worlds. At the time of the acquisition, Vuforia had approximately 80 employees and historical annualized revenues which were immaterial to our financial results. The purchase price allocation resulted in $23.3 million of goodwill, which will be deductible for income tax purposes, $41.2 million of technology and $0.3 million of net tangible assets. The acquired technology is being amortized over a useful life of 6 years. The resulting amount of goodwill reflects the value of the synergies created by integrating Vuforia’s augmented technology platform into PTC’s IoT solutions. The total purchase price for our 2016 acquisitions was allocated to assets and liabilities acquired as follows:
