Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations On December 15, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of CH2M HILL Companies, Ltd., an international provider of engineering, construction, and technical services, by acquiring 100% of the outstanding shares of CH2M common stock and preferred stock. The purpose of the acquisition was to further diversify the Company’s presence in the water, nuclear and environmental remediation sectors and to further the Company’s profitable growth strategy. The Company paid total consideration of approximately $1.8 billion in cash (excluding $315.2 million of cash acquired) and issued approximately $1.4 billion of Jacobs’ common stock, or 20.7 million shares, to the former stockholders and certain equity award holders of CH2M. In connection with the acquisition, the Company also assumed CH2M’s revolving credit facility and second lien notes, including a $20.0 million prepayment penalty, which totaled approximately $700 million of long-term debt. Immediately following the effective time of the acquisition, the Company repaid CH2M’s revolving credit facility and second lien notes including the related prepayment penalty. The following summarizes the fair values of CH2M assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in millions):
Assets |
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 315.2 |
Receivables | 1,120.6 |
Prepaid expenses and other | 72.7 |
Property, equipment and improvements, net | 175.1 |
Goodwill | 3,101.0 |
Identifiable intangible assets: |
Customer relationships, contracts and backlog | 412.3 |
Lease intangible assets | 4.4 |
Total identifiable intangible assets | 416.7 |
Miscellaneous | 543.6 |
Total Assets | $ | 5,744.9 |
Liabilities |
Notes payable | $ | 2.2 |
Accounts payable | 309.6 |
Accrued liabilities | 735.7 |
Billings in excess of costs | 260.8 |
Identifiable intangible liabilities: |
Lease intangible liabilities | 9.6 |
Long-term debt | 706.0 |
Other deferred liabilities | 659.0 |
Total Liabilities | 2,682.9 |
Noncontrolling interests | (37.3 | )
Net assets acquired | $ | 3,024.7 |
Goodwill recognized results from a substantial assembled workforce, which does not qualify for separate recognition, as well as expected future synergies from combining operations. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has completed its final assessment of the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities of CH2M. Accrued liabilities and other deferred liabilities include approximately $404.7 million for estimates related to various legal and other pre-acquisition contingent liabilities accounted for under ASC 450. See Note 18- Commitments and Contingencies relating to CH2M contingencies. Since the initial preliminary estimates reported in the first quarter of 2018, the Company has updated certain amounts reflected in the final purchase price allocation, as summarized in the fair values of CH2M assets acquired and liabilities assumed as set forth above. Specifically, the carrying amount of the intangible assets discussed above were decreased by $186.2 million as a result of valuation adjustments. Additionally, the carrying amount of property, equipment and improvements, net decreased by $50.5 million to reflect its fair value, receivables decreased $81.3 million and accrued liabilities and other deferred liabilities increased $352.9 million, respectively, primarily related to provisional estimates related to various legal and other pre-acquisition contingent liabilities. Further, miscellaneous long-term assets increased $266.2 million largely due to the deferred tax impact of these valuation adjustments. As a result of these adjustments to the initial preliminary purchase price allocation, goodwill has increased $402.2 million. Measurement period adjustments are recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined and calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. Customer relationships, contracts and backlog intangibles represent the fair value of existing contracts, the underlying customer relationships and backlog of consolidated subsidiaries and have lives ranging from 9 to 11 years (weighted average life of approximately 10 years). Other intangible assets and liabilities primarily consist of the fair value of office leases and have a weighted average life of approximately 10 years. Fair value measurements relating to the CH2M acquisition are made primarily using Level 3 inputs including discounted cash flow techniques. Fair value is estimated using inputs primarily from the income approach, which include the use of both the multiple period excess earnings method and the relief from royalties method. The significant assumptions used in estimating fair value include (i) the estimated life the asset will contribute to cash flows, such as attrition rate of customers or remaining contractual terms, (ii) profitability and (iii) the estimated discount rate that reflects the level of risk associated with receiving future cash flows. The estimated fair value of land has been determined using the market approach, which arrives at an indication of value by comparing the site being valued to sites that have been recently acquired in arm’s-length transactions. Buildings and land improvements are valued using the cost approach using a direct cost model built on estimates of replacement cost. Other personal property assets such as furniture, fixtures and equipment are valued using the cost approach which is based on replacement or reproduction costs of the asset less depreciation. From the acquisition date of December 15, 2017 through December 29, 2017, CH2M contributed approximately $131.0 million in revenue and $15.7 million in net earnings included in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Included in these results were approximately $30.0 million in pre-tax restructuring and transaction costs. Transaction costs associated with the CH2M acquisition in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the three months ended December 29, 2017 are comprised of the following (in millions):
| Three Months Ended December 29, 2017
Personnel costs | $ | 41.2 |
Professional services and other expenses | 26.7 |
Total | $ | 67.9 |
Personnel costs above include change of control payments and related severance costs. The following presents summarized unaudited pro forma operating results of Jacobs assuming that the Company had acquired CH2M at October 1, 2016. These pro forma operating results are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved had the related events occurred (in millions, except per share data):
| Three Months Ended December 29, 2017
Revenues | $ | 3,778.6 |
Net earnings of the Group | $ | 33.6 |
Net earnings (loss) attributable to Jacobs | $ | 31.1 |
Net earnings (loss) attributable to Jacobs per share: |
Basic earnings (loss) per share | $ | 0.22 |
Diluted earnings (loss) per share | $ | 0.21 |
Included in the table above are the unaudited pro forma operating results of the entire Company, including both continuing and discontinued operations. Additionally, charges relating to transaction expenses, severance expense and other items that are removed from the three months ended December 29, 2017 and are reflected in the prior fiscal year due to the assumed timing of the transaction. Also, income tax expense (benefit) for both continuing and discontinued operations for the three-month pro forma period ended December 29, 2017 was $70.5 million.
