BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS | 6. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS Acquisitions in the year ended December 31, 2012
[i] | BDW Technology Group
In January 2012, the Company acquired BDW technologies group, a structural casting supplier of aluminium components, which has operations in Germany, Poland and Hungary. The acquired business has sales primarily to Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Ferrari and ZF.
[ii] | Interior Systems
As more fully described in note 3, during the third quarter of 2011 the Company sold an interior systems operation [the “Business”] located in Germany. Subsequent to disposal, the Business continued to incur significant financial losses. By the end of the first quarter of 2012, the Business was experiencing severe liquidity issues. Although the Company had no legal obligation to do so, in light of customer relationship issues and other relevant considerations, on June 4, 2012, the Company re-acquired the Business. This acquisition resulted in acquired cash of $19 million [net of $1 million cash paid]. As part of the acquisition, the Company was able to obtain some pricing concessions from a majority of the Business’ customers. However, the Business is still expected to incur significant losses over the next three years.
[iii] | Magna E-Car Systems LP
As more fully described in note 3, on August 31, 2012 the Company acquired the controlling 27% interest in the E-Car partnership for cash consideration of $56 million [net of $19 million cash acquired]. The incremental investment in E-Car was accounted for under the business acquisition method of accounting as a step acquisition which requires that all assets acquired and liabilities of E-Car be measured at fair value. The preliminary purchase equation allocated $210 million to intangible assets which are primarily technology based intangibles. Given the continuing uncertainties regarding the timing and magnitude of a viable electric vehicle industry, competing electric vehicle technologies, significantly larger competitors, and other factors, the Company has determined that the intangible assets should be amortized on a straight-line basis over the period ending December 31, 2013.
[iv] | STT Technologies Inc.
As more fully described in note 3, on October 26, 2012 the Company acquired the remaining 50% interest in STT for cash considerations of $42 million [net of $13 million cash acquired]. The incremental investment in STT required that all assets acquired and liabilities of STT be measured at fair value. This transaction also resulted in $58 million of goodwill recorded.
[v] | ixetic Verwaltungs GmbH
In December 2012, the Company acquired ixetic Verwaltungs GmbH [“ixetic”], a manufacturer of automotive vacuum, engine and transmission pumps, which has operations in Germany, Bulgaria and China as well as representation in Brazil, India, Japan and the United States. The purchase price was $395 million [net of $64 million cash acquired] resulting in $169 million of goodwill. The acquired business has sales primarily to BMW, Daimler, Volkswagen, Schaeffler, ZF, Ford, Chrysler, Renault-Nissan and Toyota.

The impact of finalizing the 2011 acquisitions in 2012 was insignificant to the 2012 consolidated financial statements. Acquisitions in the year ended December 31, 2010 In December 2010, Magna completed the following acquisitions:
[a] | Resil Minas, a supplier of seat frames and stampings. The acquired business is primarily located in Brazil with sales to various customers, including Fiat, Ford, General Motors, Volkswagen, IVECO and PSA.

Pro forma impact [unaudited] If the acquisitions completed during 2012 and 2011 occurred on January 1, 2011, the Company’s pro forma consolidated sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 would have been $31.5 billion [2011 – $30.0 billion] and the unaudited pro forma consolidated net income would have been $1.4 billion [2011 – $0.9 billion].
