Summary purchase price allocation information for all acquisitions All of the acquisitions discussed in this note other than Acero Prime have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, each purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the date of each acquisition. The accompanying consolidated statements of income include the revenues and expenses of each acquisition since its respective acquisition date. The consolidated balance sheets reflect the allocations of each acquisition’s purchase price as of December 31, 2018 or 2017, as applicable. The purchase price allocations for the 2018 acquisitions of All Metals, KMS and DuBose are preliminary and are pending the completion of pre-acquisition income tax returns. The measurement periods for purchase price allocations do not exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. The increase in our ownership of Acero Prime from 60% to 100% was accounted for as an equity transaction. The difference between the $29.0 million consideration paid and the $19.7 million noncontrolling interest, or $9.3 million, was recognized as a decrease in total Reliance stockholders’ equity. As part of the purchase price allocations of the acquisitions completed in 2018, 2017 and 2016, $18.3 million, $3.7 million and $38.2 million, respectively, were allocated to the trade names acquired. We determined that all of the trade names acquired in connection with these acquisitions had indefinite lives since their economic lives are expected to approximate the life of each company acquired. Additionally, we recorded other identifiable intangible assets related to customer relationships for the 2018, 2017 and 2016 acquisitions of $24.8 million, $3.7 million and $76.8 million, respectively, with weighted average lives of 10.0, 10.0 and 15.5 years, respectively. The goodwill arising from our 2018, 2017 and 2016 acquisitions consists largely of expected strategic benefits, including enhanced financial and operational scale, as well as expansion of acquired product and processing know-how across our enterprise. Tax deductible goodwill from our 2018 and 2016 acquisitions amounted to $21.3 million and $104.7 million, respectively. Total tax deductible goodwill amounted to $685.4 million as of December 31, 2018.
