(1)The fair values of all acquired assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interest for this operation have been determined on a provisional basis given the proximity of the acquisition to the reporting date, pending finalization of the determination of the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities. Our partnership is in the process of obtaining additional information in order to assess the fair value of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and liabilities as well as the initial measurement of right-of-use assets and liabilities as at the date of acquisition.

(3)Non-controlling interest represents the consideration paid for the interest not acquired by Brookfield Infrastructure, measured at fair value at the acquisition date, and includes capital provided by non-controlling interest in the form of a shareholder loan to the operating business.

The goodwill recorded on acquisition is largely reflective of the potential to obtain long-term contracts for the business’ unutilized capacity of the telecom towers. The goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Upon consolidation of WIG, an additional deferred tax liability of $25 million was recorded. The deferred income tax liability arose as the tax bases of the net assets acquired were lower than their fair values. The inclusion of this liability in the net book value of the acquired business gave rise to goodwill of $25 million, which is recoverable so long as the tax circumstances that gave rise to the goodwill do not change. To date, no such changes have occurred. The remaining goodwill recognized on acquisition is largely reflective of potential customer growth, arising from the business’ position as one of the key telecommunication infrastructure providers in the U.K., and the increasing reliance on core telecom networks.
