All acquisitions were accounted for as business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting. The results of operations of the acquired stores are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition. The following tables summarize the consideration paid for the 2017 acquisitions and the amount of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):

1 In partial consideration for the purchase of Baierl Auto Group, we issued 4,489 shares of our Class A common stock on May 1, 2017 and will issue an additional 17,957 shares over the next four years for a total of 22,446 shares. As of May 1, 2017, these shares were deemed outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted EPS and had a market value of $2.1 million, based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on May 1, 2017 of $95.22 per share. See also Note 8. The purchase price allocations for the Baierl Auto Group and DTLA Auto Group acquisitions are preliminary and we have not obtained and evaluated all of the detailed information necessary to finalize the opening balance sheet amounts in all respects. We recorded the purchase price allocations based upon information that is currently available. Unallocated items are recorded as a component of other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017, we recorded $3.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, in acquisition related expenses as a component of selling, general and administrative expense. These expenses include costs related to current year acquisitions, as well as reserve adjustments associated with contingent consideration recorded in association with previous acquisitions. We did not have any material acquisition expenses for the same periods in 2016. The following unaudited proforma summary presents consolidated information as if all acquisitions in the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 had occurred on January 1, 2016 (in thousands, except per share amounts):
|  | Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
|  | 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2017 |  | 2016
Revenue |  | $ | 2,773,082 |  |  | $ | 2,792,994 |  |  | $ | 8,032,963 |  |  | $ | 7,941,561 |
Net income |  | 53,488 |  |  | 59,925 |  |  | 164,938 |  |  | 163,473 |
Basic net income per share |  | 2.14 |  |  | 2.38 |  |  | 6.57 |  |  | 6.41 |
Diluted net income per share |  | 2.13 |  |  | 2.37 |  |  | 6.56 |  |  | 6.39 |
These amounts have been calculated by applying our accounting policies and estimates. The results of the acquired stores have been adjusted to reflect the following: depreciation on a straight-line basis over the expected lives for property and equipment; accounting for inventory on a specific identification method; and recognition of interest expense for real estate financing related to stores where we purchased the facility. No nonrecurring proforma adjustments directly attributable to the acquisitions are included in the reported proforma revenues and earnings.
