Business Combinations [Abstract] |
ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS In April 2017, we acquired protein-based snacking businesses Thanasi Foods LLC, maker of Duke's® meat snacks, and BIGS LLC, maker of BIGS® seeds, for $217.6 million in cash, net of cash acquired. Approximately $133.4 million has been classified as goodwill of which $70.9 million is deductible for income tax purposes. Approximately $81.2 million of the purchase price has been allocated to other intangible assets. These businesses are included in the Grocery & Snacks segment. In September 2016, we acquired the operating assets of Frontera Foods, Inc. and Red Fork LLC, including the Frontera®, Red Fork®, and Salpica® brands. These businesses make authentic, gourmet Mexican food products and contemporary American cooking sauces. We acquired the businesses for $108.1 million in cash, net of cash acquired. Approximately $39.5 million has been classified as goodwill and $66.7 million has been classified as other intangible assets. The amount allocated to goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. These businesses are reflected principally within the Grocery & Snacks segment, and to a lesser extent within the Refrigerated & Frozen and International segments. These acquisitions collectively contributed $31.0 million to net sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2018. For each of these acquisitions, the amounts allocated to goodwill were primarily attributable to anticipated synergies, product portfolios, and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in these acquisitions were recorded at their respective estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Angie's Artisan Treats, LLC, maker of Angie's® BOOMCHICKAPOP® ready-to-eat popcorn, for a cash purchase price of $250 million, net of cash acquired and subject to working capital adjustments. The business will be primarily included in the Grocery & Snacks segment. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the calendar year, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of any applicable regulatory approvals.
