Acquisitions and Dispositions Acquisitions
Educational Partners International

In September 2024, the Company acquired a 68% ownership interest in Educational Partners International (EPI), a company that sponsors international teachers for placements in schools in the U.S. Total consideration for the Company's investment was $167.7 million, all of which was cash. The Company has the option to acquire the remaining equity interests and the remaining equity holders have the option to sell their interests to the Company in the future. Through January 15, 2025, the Company's investment was accounted for under the equity method, as the Company did not have control over the business due to regulatory approval that was still pending. On January 16, 2025, the Company received regulatory approval, which resulted in the control and consolidation of EPI.

Upon consolidation, the purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities of EPI based on estimated fair value at the consolidation date. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company completed the process of determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with EPI and recognized goodwill of $65.3 million, intangible assets of $182.0 million and redeemable noncontrolling interest of $81.2 million. The final purchase price allocation reflected no significant differences from the preliminary purchase price allocation. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expected future earnings and cash flow potential of EPI, and it is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible assets include $160.0 million attributed to an indefinite-lived intangible asset for a designation from the U.S. Department of State that authorizes EPI to sponsor international teachers for placements in schools in the U.S. The remaining intangible assets include $10.0 million of trade names, $2.0 million of technology, and $10.0 million of other intangible assets, which are being amortized over 15 years, 5 years, and 15 years, respectively. Results attributable to EPI are included in the Company's Consumer and Other segment.

Valor Environmental

In June 2024, the Company acquired 98% of Valor Environmental (Valor), an environmental services company providing erosion control and related services to commercial development sites and homebuilders throughout the U.S. Total consideration for the transaction was $156.4 million, all of which was cash. The Company has the option to acquire the remaining equity interests and the remaining equity holders have the option to sell their interests to the Company in the future.

Upon acquisition, the purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities of Valor based on estimated fair value at the acquisition date. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed the process of determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with Valor and recognized goodwill of $73.4 million and intangible assets of $92.5 million. The final purchase price allocation reflected differences from the preliminary purchase price allocation upon completion of a third-party valuation, including a $43.5 million increase in the amount recognized for intangible assets and an increase in the corresponding deferred tax liability. The final purchase price allocation adjustments resulted in a $34.2 million net decrease to goodwill from the preliminary amount recognized. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expected future earnings and cash flow potential of Valor, and a portion of it is not deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible assets include $82.0 million of customer relationships, $6.0 million of trade names, and $4.5 million of other intangible assets, which are being amortized over 17 years, 15 years, and 5 years, respectively. Results attributable to Valor are included in the Company's Industrial segment.
