Acquisitions

Polaris Alpha

On May 31, 2018, the Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in Polaris Alpha, a privately owned, advanced technology-focused provider of innovative mission solutions for complex defense, intelligence, and security customers, as well as other U.S. federal government customers, for $489.1 million paid in cash. The Company borrowed $260 million under the credit agreement, as described in “Note 11 – Debt and Credit Facilities,” to partially fund the acquisition. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recognized $6.2 million of acquisition-related expenses in “Indirect, general and administrative expense” in the consolidated statements of income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, including legal fees, consulting fees, and other miscellaneous direct expenses associated with the acquisition. Polaris Alpha enhances the Company’s artificial intelligence and data analytics expertise with new technologies and solutions. Customers of both companies will benefit from existing, complementary technologies and increased scale, enabling end-to-end solutions under the shared vision of rapid prototyping and agile development.

Amortization expense of $13.0 million and $13.2 million related to these intangible assets was recorded for the three months ended September 28, 2018 and September 30, 2019, respectively, and $17.3 million and $41.2 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2018 and September 30, 2019, respectively. The entire value of goodwill of $243.5 million was assigned to the Parsons Federal reporting unit and represents synergies expected to be realized from this business combination. Goodwill of $50.1 million is deductible for tax purposes.

The amount of revenue generated by Polaris Alpha and included within consolidated revenues is $94.8 million and $96.9 million for the three months ended September 28, 2018 and September 30, 2019, respectively, and $124.7 million and $293.0 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2018 and September 30, 2019, respectively. The Company has determined that the presentation of net income from the date of acquisition is impracticable due to the integration of general corporate functions upon acquisition.
