ACQUISITIONS | NOTE 20 ACQUISITIONS Business Combinations On October 31, 2019, we completed our acquisition (the “Noble Acquisition”) of 100% of the equity interests of Noble International Holdings, Inc., Genia Medical, Inc. and JBCB Holdings, LLC (collectively referred to as “Noble”). Noble, based in Orlando, FL, is a leading provider in developing patient-centric advanced drug delivery system training devices including autoinjector, prefilled syringe, onbody and respiratory devices for the world’s leading biopharmaceutical companies and original equipment manufacturers. The purchase price was approximately $62.3 million (net of $1.6 million of cash acquired) and was funded by cash on hand. As part of the Noble Acquisition, we are also obligated to pay to the selling equityholders of Noble certain contingent consideration based on 2024 cumulative financial performance metrics defined in the purchase agreement. Based on projection as of the acquisition date, we estimated the aggregate fair value for this contingent consideration arrangement to be $2.9 million utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model. We are in the process of finalizing purchase accounting. As of December 31, 2019, $5 million was held in restricted cash pending the finalization of a working capital adjustment. The results of Noble’s operations have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements within our Pharma segment since the date of acquisition. On June 5, 2019, we completed our acquisition (the “Nanopharm Acquisition”) of all of the outstanding capital stock of Nanopharm Ltd. (“Nanopharm”). Nanopharm, located in Newport, UK, is a science-driven, leading provider of orally inhaled and nasal drug product design and development services. The purchase price was approximately $38.1 million (net of $1.8 million of cash acquired) and was funded by cash on hand. The results of Nanopharm’s operations have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements within our Pharma segment since the date of acquisition. On May 31, 2019, we completed our acquisition (the “Gateway Acquisition”) of all of the outstanding equity interests of Gateway Analytical LLC (“Gateway”). Gateway, located in Gibsonia, PA, provides industry-leading particulate detection and predictive analytical services to customers developing injectable medicines. The purchase price was approximately $7.0 million and was funded by cash on hand. As part of the Gateway Acquisition, we are also obligated to pay to the selling equityholder of Gateway certain contingent consideration based on 2020 and 2022 performance targets defined in the purchase agreement. Based on projections as of the acquisition date, we estimated the aggregate fair value for this contingent consideration arrangement to be $3.0 million. The results of Gateway’s operations have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements within our Pharma segment since the date of acquisition. On August 27, 2018, we completed our acquisition (the “CSP Technologies Acquisition”) of all of the outstanding capital stock of CSP Technologies S.à r.l. (“CSP Technologies”). CSP Technologies is a leader in active packaging technology based on proprietary material science expertise for the pharma and food service markets. CSP Technologies operates manufacturing locations in the U.S. and France. The preliminary purchase price was approximately $553.5 million and was funded by cash on hand. As of December 31, 2018, $5 million was held in restricted cash pending the finalization of a working capital adjustment. The $5 million cash amount was released from restriction in January 2019 after the finalization of the working capital adjustment, resulting in a refund of $1.0 million. CSP Technologies contributed net sales of $48.9 million and pretax loss of $10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Sales of $33.9 million and $15.0 million were reported in the Pharma and Food + Beverage segments, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018. Pretax loss of $10.3 million and pretax income of $0.1 million were reported in the Pharma and Food + Beverage segments, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018. Included in pretax income is $14.1 million of fair value adjustment amortization for inventory sold during 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized $3.4 million in transaction costs related to the acquisitions of Noble, Nanopharm and Gateway. For the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized $9.0 million in transaction costs related to the acquisition of CSP Technologies. These costs are reflected in the selling, research & development and administration section of the Consolidated Statements of Income and within acquisition-related costs as disclosed in Note 18 – Segment Information.

​ Goodwill in the amount of $59.1 million and $278.0 million was recorded related to the 2019 and 2018 acquisitions, respectively. For 2019, $59.1 million is included in the Pharma segment and, for 2018, $174.3 million and $103.7 million is included in the Pharma and Food + Beverage segments, respectively. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets acquired and represents the estimated future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill largely consists of leveraging our commercial presence in selling the Noble, Nanopharm, Gateway and CSP Technologies lines of products in markets where they did not previously operate and the abilities of the acquired companies to maintain their competitive advantage from a technical viewpoint. Goodwill will not be amortized, but will be tested for impairment at least annually. For 2019 acquisitions, goodwill of $29.6 million will be deductible for tax purposes. For the 2018 acquisitions, we do not expect any of the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma results of operations for 2019 acquisitions have not been presented as the effects of these business combinations individually and in aggregate were not material to the consolidated results of operations. The unaudited pro forma results presented below include the effects of the CSP Technologies acquisition as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma results reflect certain adjustments related to the acquisition, such as intangible asset amortization, fair value adjustments for inventory and financing costs related to the change in our debt structure. The 2018 pro forma earnings were adjusted to exclude $16.7 million after tax ($22.0 million pretax) of transaction and other costs. The aforementioned costs include compensation, consulting, legal and advisory fees. The 2018 pro forma earnings were also adjusted to exclude $10.9 million after tax ($14.1 million pretax) of nonrecurring expense related to the fair value adjustment to acquisition-date inventory. The 2017 pro forma earnings were adjusted to include these adjustments. The pro forma results do not include any synergies or other expected benefits of the acquisition. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma financial information below is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the acquisition been completed on the dates indicated. ​

​ On May 1, 2018, we acquired 100% of the common stock of Reboul, a French manufacturer specializing in stamping, decorating and assembling metal and plastic packaging for the cosmetics and luxury markets, for an initial purchase price of approximately $3.5 million (net of $112 thousand of cash acquired) (the “Reboul Acquisition”). The results of Reboul’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements within our Beauty + Home segment since the date of acquisition. As part of the Reboul Acquisition, we were obligated to pay to the selling shareholders of Reboul certain contingent consideration based on 2018 EBITDA as defined in the purchase agreement. These targets were not achieved and we did not pay any contingent consideration. Subsequent to year end, on February 13, 2020, we entered into a securities purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Fusion Packaging I, LP (“Fusion”), contingent on the closing date of the transaction. Fusion, based in Dallas, TX, is a global leader in the design, engineering, manufacturing and distribution of luxury packaging for the beauty industry. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The purchase will be funded with available cash on hand and/or borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Asset Acquisition On August 2, 2019, we completed our asset acquisition (the “Bapco Acquisition”) of the remaining 80% ownership interest in the capital stock of Bapco Closures Holdings Limited (“Bapco”), for $3.8 million (net of $2.9 million of cash acquired). The 20% ownership investment previously held in Bapco is now included within the intangible assets acquired. Bapco, located in Horesell, UK, provides innovative closures sealing technology that provides package integrity and tamper evidence. The results of Bapco’s operations have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements within our Food + Beverage segment since the date of acquisition. Equity and Other Investments On October 1, 2019, we entered into a strategic definitive agreement to acquire 49% of the equity interests in three related companies: Suzhou Hsing Kwang, Suqian Hsing Kwang and Suzhou BTY, (collectively referred to as “BTY”), contingent on the settlement date of the transaction. We have a call option to acquire an additional 26% to 31% of BTY’s equity interests following the initial lock-up period of 5 years based on a predetermined formula. Subsequent to the second lock-up period, which ends 3 years subsequent to the initial lock-up period, we have a call option to acquire the remaining equity interests of BTY based on a predetermined formula. Additionally, the selling shareholders of BTY have a put option for the remaining equity interest to be acquired by Aptar based on a predetermined formula. The BTY entities are leading Chinese manufacturers of high quality, decorative metal components, metal-plastic sub-assemblies, and complete color cosmetics packaging solutions for the beauty industry. Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2019, on January 1, 2020 the transaction closed for an approximate purchase price of $32 million for our 49% share. During August 2019, we also invested an aggregate amount of $3.5 million in two preferred equity investments in sustainability companies that are accounted for at cost less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. There were no indications of impairment nor were there any changes from observable price changes noted in the three months ended December 31, 2019. In May 2018, we invested $10.0 million in preferred equity stock of Reciprocal Labs Corporation, doing business as Propeller Health, consistent with measurement alternative guidance described in Note 1 above. No impairment charge was recorded during 2018 against this investment. We recorded a gain of approximately $6.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2018 by adjusting the carrying amount to its expected sales proceeds as this investment was subsequently sold during January 2019.
