Business Combinations [Abstract] |
BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS | BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS On May 1, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of the outreach laboratory service business of PeaceHealth Laboratories ("PHL"), in an all-cash transaction for $101 million. PHL is a healthcare system that provides clinical testing services to physicians, hospitals, and clinics in Oregon, Washington and Alaska. The assets acquired principally consist of $71 million of tax deductible goodwill and $30 million of customer-related intangible assets. The intangible assets are being amortized over a useful life of 15 years. On July 14, 2017, the Company completed the acquisitions of Med Fusion, LLC and Clearpoint Diagnostic Laboratories, LLC ("Med Fusion"), in an all-cash transaction for $150 million. The final consideration paid is subject to post closing adjustments related to working capital. Through the acquisition, the Company acquired all of Med Fusion's operations. Med Fusion provides precision medicine diagnostics to aid cancer treatment nationwide and the acquired businesses form the Company's center of excellence in precision diagnostics for oncology. The assets acquired principally consist of $84 million of customer-related intangible assets, $62 million of tax deductible goodwill and $31 million of property, plant and equipment. The liabilities assumed principally consist of a $28 million capital lease obligation. The intangible assets are being amortized over a useful life of 15 years. On September 28, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of the outreach laboratory service businesses of two hospitals of Hartford Health Care ("HHC"), The William W. Backus Hospital and The Hospital of Central Connecticut, in an all-cash transaction for $30 million. The assets acquired principally consist of tax deductible goodwill and customer-related intangible assets. The acquisitions during the quarter were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. As such, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded based on their estimated fair values as of the closing date. Supplemental pro forma combined financial information has not been presented as the impact of the acquisitions is not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The goodwill recorded primarily includes the expected synergies resulting from combining the operations of the acquired entities with those of the Company and the value associated with an assembled workforce and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. All of the goodwill acquired in connection with these acquisitions has been allocated to the Company's DIS business. For further details regarding business segment information, see Note 12. For details regarding the Company's 2016 acquisitions, see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
