Acquisitions | Acquisitions: On January 12, 2015 (the “Acquisition Closing Date”), we completed the acquisition of all the outstanding shares of Rockwood (the “Merger”) for a purchase price of approximately $5.7 billion. As a result, Rockwood became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Albemarle. Purchase Price Allocation The aggregate purchase price noted above was allocated to the major categories of assets and liabilities acquired based upon their estimated fair values at the Acquisition Closing Date, which were based, in part, upon third-party appraisals for certain assets, including specifically-identified intangible assets. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired was approximately $2.8 billion and was recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price was finalized during the the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price paid and the amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Rockwood acquisition based upon estimated fair values at the date of acquisition (in thousands):
Total purchase price | $ | 5,725,321 |
Net assets acquired: |
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 1,555,139 |
Trade and other accounts receivable | 262,947 |
Inventories | 290,496 |
Other current assets | 86,267 |
Property, plant and equipment | 1,383,480 |
Investments | 529,453 |
Other assets | 25,538 |
Definite-lived intangible assets: |
Patents and technology | 227,840 |
Trade names and trademarks | 234,610 |
Customer lists and relationships | 1,280,142 |
Indefinite-lived intangible assets: |
Trade names and trademarks | 104,380 |
Other | 26,670 |
Current liabilities | (406,532 | )
Long-term debt | (1,319,132 | )
Pension benefits | (316,086 | )
Other noncurrent liabilities | (195,052 | )
Deferred income taxes | (845,884 | )
Noncontrolling interests | (17,582 | )
Total identifiable net assets | 2,906,694 |
Goodwill | 2,818,627 |
Total net assets acquired | $ | 5,725,321 |
Significant changes to the purchase price allocation since our initial preliminary estimates reported in the first quarter of 2015 were primarily related to decreases in the estimated fair values of certain current assets, property, plant and equipment, investments and intangible assets and increases in certain other noncurrent liabilities and noncontrolling interests, which resulted in an increase to recognized goodwill of approximately $193.8 million. This increase to recognized goodwill includes approximately $1.5 million that was recognized during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 based on changes to intangible assets, property, plant and equipment and deferred taxes. Goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of the anticipated synergies and economies of scale from the combined companies and the overall strategic importance of the acquired businesses to Albemarle. The goodwill attributable to the acquisition will not be amortizable or deductible for tax purposes. Included in Acquisition and integration related costs on our consolidated statements of income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 is $19.7 million and $57.4 million, respectively, of integration costs resulting from the acquisition of Rockwood (mainly consisting of professional services and advisory fees, costs to achieve synergies, relocation costs, and other integration costs) and $1.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of costs in connection with other significant projects. The weighted-average amortization periods for the intangible assets acquired are 20 years for patents and technology, 20 years for trade names and trademarks and 24 years for customer lists and relationships. The weighted-average amortization period for all definite-lived intangible assets acquired is 23 years. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, Depreciation and amortization expense included in Cost of goods sold was reduced by approximately $4.3 million as a result of measurement-period adjustments related to previous reporting periods. In addition, Cost of goods sold was reduced by $0.2 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 as a result of a measurement-period adjustment related to the utilization of the inventory markup, as further described in Note 12, “Segment Information.” Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information The following unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 assume that the Merger occurred on January 1, 2015. The pro forma amounts include certain adjustments, including interest expense, depreciation, amortization expense and income taxes. The pro forma amounts were also adjusted to exclude approximately $57.4 million of nonrecurring acquisition and integration related costs, and approximately $48.2 million of charges related to the utilization of the inventory markup as further described in Note 12, “Segment Information.” The pro forma results do not include adjustments related to cost savings or other synergies that are anticipated as a result of the Merger. Accordingly, these unaudited pro forma results are presented for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations of the combined company would have been if the acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2015, nor are they indicative of future results of operations.
