Acquired goodwill represents the premium that we paid over the acquisition-date fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Certain current market-based assumptions were used in the preliminary allocation of the acquisition price, which may be updated as additional information becomes available during the one-year measurement period following the closing of the acquisition.
