Business combinations description   The deferred purchase price consideration is an estimate of future payments to be made to the Sellers pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement upon final determination of certain income tax related matters. Prior to the APi Acquisition, APi Group was structured for United States (“US”) income tax purposes as a “flow through entity”. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to pay to the Sellers the following amounts: i) up to $130 related to an Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 338(h)(10) election made by the Sellers; ii) up to $23 for IRC Section 965 taxes incurred by the Sellers and; iii) an amount sufficient to cover the Sellers’ state and federal tax liabilities for 2019. These deferred payments are expected to be paid to the Sellers over the course of approximately 18 months from the APi Acquisition date. A final determination of the amounts of deferred purchase consideration due to the Sellers will not be determined until such time that the Company files its amended 2019 tax return. As of September 30, 2020, $47 has been paid related to the IRC Section 338(h)(10) election, $23 has been paid for the IRC Section 965 taxes incurred by the Sellers and an additional $10 has been paid to cover Sellers’ state and federal tax liabilities for 2019. No further payments are expected to be made related to the IRC Section 965 or the Sellers’ state and federal tax liabilities for 2019. The Company expects to file its final 2019 tax returns no later than the fourth quarter of 2020. The fair value of the deferred purchase consideration is based on management’s estimated amounts and timing of future payments, discounted utilizing rates ranging from 2.6% to 2.8% to reflect market participant assumptions.
