The purchase price allocation for the Baierl Auto Group, DTLA Auto Group, Albany CJD Fiat, Crater Lake Ford Lincoln and Crater Lake Mazda acquisitions is preliminary as we have not obtained all of the detailed information to finalize the opening balance sheet related to real estate purchased, leases assumed and the allocation of franchise value to each reporting unit. Management has recorded the purchase price allocations based on the information that is currently available. We account for franchise value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset. We recognized $6.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, in acquisition related expenses as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in 2017 and 2016, respectively. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1 of the previous year (in thousands, except for per share amounts):
Year Ended December 31, |  | 2017 |  | 2016
Revenue |  | $ | 10,879,567 |  |  | $ | 10,727,906 |
Net income |  | 254,966 |  |  | 219,756 |
Basic net income per share |  | 10.17 |  |  | 8.65 |
Diluted net income per share |  | 10.14 |  |  | 8.61 |
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, plant 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 pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the acquisitions are included in the reported pro forma revenues and earnings.
