5. Business Acquisitions and Divestitures

2020 Acquisitions

In the second quarter of 2020, we completed acquisitions to enhance our existing platform, technology, and workforce. The combined purchase consideration was $24.4 million of which $15.3 million was allocated to goodwill and the remainder primarily to identifiable intangible assets. The goodwill amount represents synergies related to our existing platform expected to be realized from the business acquisitions and assembled workforces. The associated goodwill and intangible assets are not deductible for tax purposes.

2019 Acquisitions and Divestiture

AI Factory, Inc.

In December 2019, we acquired the remaining ownership interest in AI Factory, Inc. (“AI Factory”), a content and technology company. Prior to the acquisition, we owned a minority interest in the company. The purpose of the acquisition was to enhance the functionality of our platform.

The acquisition date fair value of AI Factory was $128.1 million, which primarily represents current and future cash consideration payments to sellers, as well as the $13.5 million fair value of our original minority interest. We recognized the change in pre-acquisition fair value of our original minority interest as a gain in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of operations.

The allocation of acquisition date fair value is as follows:

Placed, LLC

In June 2019, we divested our membership interest in Placed, LLC (“Placed”). The total cash consideration received was $77.8 million, which includes amounts paid for severance and equity compensation. The remaining $66.9 million represents purchase consideration and we recognized a net gain on divestiture of $39.9 million, which is included in other income (expense), net, on our consolidated statements of operations. The operating results of Placed were not material to our consolidated revenue or consolidated operating loss for all periods presented. We determined that Placed did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations.

Placed assets and liabilities on completion of the divestiture were as follows:
