​ During the quarter ended March 31, 2021 the Company recorded an adjustment of $603,000 to increase the liabilities assumed and increase the goodwill acquired on acquisition. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021 the Company finalized the net working capital adjustment under the purchase agreement and reduced the purchase price by $728,000. The Company also recorded an adjustment of $1,677,000 to reduce the liabilities assumed on acquisition. These measurement period adjustments, since acquisition, resulted in a total net decrease to goodwill of $1,802,000. ​ The purchase price allocation has been finalized as of June 30, 2021. As at Q2, 2021, $1,169,000 continues to be held in escrow until December 4, 2021 or until such date that a joint decision is made for the funds to be released. ​ Goodwill ​ Goodwill has been assigned and allocated to “Other” for segmented information purposes and is based on an analysis of the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill relates to benefits expected from the acquisition of Rouse’s business, its assembled workforce and associated technical expertise, as well as anticipated synergies from the Company’s auction expertise and transactional capabilities to Rouse’s existing customer base. The transaction is considered a taxable business combination and all of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. ​ Transactions recognized separately from the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities ​ At the date of acquisition, the Company issued 312,193 common shares to certain previous unitholders of Rouse in return for their continuing employment service. The common shares are expected to vest at various vesting dates over a three-year period from the date of acquisition as continuing employment services are provided to the Company. At the date of acquisition, the Company estimated that it will recognize a total fair value of $20,735,000 share-based continuing employment costs in acquisition-related costs over the vesting period, with an increase to additional paid-in capital, subject to continuing employment of those individuals. As and when the common shares vest, the Company will recognize the fair value of the issued common shares from additional paid-in capital to share capital. During the three month period ended March 31, 2021, one of the previous unitholders of Rouse, who became an employee of the Company after the acquisition, terminated their employment contract which resulted in the forfeiture of 55,510 shares as no vesting conditions had been achieved and reversal of share based continuing employment costs of $98,000. As a result, as at June 30, 2021, the number of common shares expected to vest is 256,683 and the total unrecognized fair value of the share-based continuing employment costs expected to be recognized is $11,898,000 (Note 18). During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $3,049,000 acquisition-related costs for legal, advisory, integration and other professional fees, which included $2,678,000 of share-based continuing employment costs.
