Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations Air-X-Changers Acquisition On July 1, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Air-X-Changers (“AXC”) pursuant to the previously disclosed Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of May 8, 2019. The purchase price for AXC was $599.7, including post-closing purchase price adjustments with respect to working capital. We paid $592.0 of the purchase price at closing and the final working capital adjustment of $7.7 was paid during the third quarter of 2019. We financed the purchase price for the AXC acquisition with proceeds from borrowings under the 2024 Credit Facilities and a public offering of Chart’s common stock in 2019. AXC is a leading supplier of custom engineered and manufactured ACHX for the natural gas compression and processing industry and refining and petrochemical industry. The ACHX offered by AXC is used in conditioning natural gas during recovery, compression and transportation from underground reserves through major pipeline distribution channels. In addition to natural gas compression and processing, AXC’s products are also used in the turbine lube oil cooling, landfill gas compression and liquids cooling industries. AXC’s end markets include process industries, power generation and refineries. AXC was combined with Chart’s Hudson Products and Chart Cooler Service businesses from the prior E&C segment to create a new segment called E&C FinFans. The E&C FinFans segment is focused on our unique and broad product offering and capabilities in ACHX and fans. As defined in our significant accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, we allocated the acquisition consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets were determined based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. It is also based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the acquisition. As such, this was classified as Level 3 fair value hierarchy measurements and disclosures. We estimated the fair value of acquired unpatented technology and trademarks and trade names using the relief from royalty method. The fair values of acquired customer backlog and customer relationships were estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method. Under both the relief from royalty and multi-period excess earnings methods, the fair value models incorporated estimates of future cash flows, estimates of allocations of certain assets and cash flows, estimates of future growth rates, and management’s judgment regarding the applicable discount rates to use to discount such estimates of cash flows. The estimated useful lives of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets range from 1 to 14 years. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values was assigned to goodwill. The estimated goodwill was established due to benefits including the combination of strong engineering and manufacturing cultures which will continue to further develop full service solutions for our worldwide customer base, as well as the benefits derived from the anticipated synergies of AXC integrating with our E&C FinFans segment. Goodwill recorded for the AXC acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The purchase price allocation reported at December 31, 2019 was preliminary and was based on provisional fair values. During the first six months of 2020 and prior to July 1, 2020, we received and analyzed new information about certain property, plant and equipment and subsequently increased associated deferred tax liabilities by $0.4. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the AXC acquisition as of the acquisition date:
