Amortization expense of $11.9 million related to these intangible assets was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2022. The entire value of goodwill was assigned to the Federal Solutions reporting unit and represents synergies expected to be realized from this business combination. Goodwill in its entirety is deductible for tax purposes.

The amount of revenue generated by Xator and included within consolidated revenues is $157.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. 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.

The company is still in the process of finalizing its valuation of the net assets acquired.
