Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions Acquisition of Totalgaz On May 29, 2015 (the “Acquisition Date”), UGI, through its wholly owned indirect subsidiary, France SAS, completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Totalgaz SAS, a retail distributor of LPG in France, for €451.8 ($496.6) in cash (the “Totalgaz Acquisition”), including €30.0 ($33.0) for estimated Acquisition Date working capital. In November 2015, France SAS received €1.1 ($1.2) of cash as a result of the completion of the final working capital amount. The Totalgaz Acquisition was consummated pursuant to the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement dated November 11, 2014, between Total Marketing Services, a subsidiary of global energy company Total, and France SAS. The Totalgaz Acquisition nearly doubles our retail LPG distribution business in France and is consistent with our growth strategies, one of which is to grow our core business through acquisitions. The Totalgaz Acquisition was funded from existing cash balances and a portion of loan proceeds from France SAS’s May 29, 2015, issuance of a €600 term loan under its 2015 Senior Facilities Agreement (see Note 6). The Company has accounted for the Totalgaz Acquisition using the acquisition method. At September 30, 2015, the allocation of the purchase price is substantially complete except for the valuation of certain liabilities associated with cylinder deposits and amounts related to deferred income tax assets and liabilities. These amounts are preliminary pending the obtaining of additional information. The Company expects to obtain additional information during the measurement period under GAAP of up to one year from the Acquisition Date as necessary to determine the final allocation of the purchase price. Accordingly, the fair value estimates presented below relating to these items are subject to change. The components of the Finagaz purchase price allocation are as follows:
Assets acquired: |
Cash | $ | 86.8 |
Accounts receivable (a) | 170.3 |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets | 11.0 |
Property, plant and equipment | 375.6 |
Intangible assets (b) | 91.3 |
Other assets | 21.4 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 756.4 |
Liabilities assumed: |
Accounts payable | 109.2 |
Other current liabilities | 103.5 |
Deferred income taxes | 115.8 |
Other noncurrent liabilities | 117.5 |
Total liabilities assumed | $ | 446.0 |
Goodwill | 186.2 |
Net consideration transferred (including working capital adjustments) | $ | 496.6 |
(a) | Approximates the gross contractual amounts of receivables acquired.
(b) | Represents $79.3 of customer relationships and $12.0 of tradenames ($8.3 of which is subject to amortization), having average amortization periods of 15 years.
We allocated the purchase price of the acquisition to identifiable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment based on estimated fair values as follows:
• | Customer relationships were valued using a multi-period, excess earnings method. Key assumptions used in this method include discount rates, growth rates and cash flow projections. These assumptions are most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment;
• | Tradenames were valued using the relief from royalty method, which estimates our theoretical royalty savings from ownership of the tradenames. Key assumptions used in this method include discount rates, royalty rates, growth rates and sale projections. These assumptions are most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment; and
• | Property, plant and equipment were valued based on estimated fair values primarily using depreciated replacement cost and market value methods.
The excess of the purchase price for the Totalgaz Acquisition over the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been reflected as goodwill, assigned to the UGI France reportable segment, and results principally from anticipated synergies and value creation resulting from the Company’s combined LPG businesses in France. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. The Company recognized $16.1 of direct transaction-related costs associated with the Totalgaz Acquisition during Fiscal 2015, which costs are reflected primarily in operating and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The acquisition of Finagaz did not have a material impact on the Company’s revenues or net income attributable to UGI for the year ended September 30, 2015. The following table presents unaudited pro forma revenues, net income attributable to UGI Corporation and earnings per share data for Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2014 as if the Totalgaz Acquisition had occurred on October 1, 2013. The unaudited pro forma consolidated information reflects the historical results of Totalgaz SAS and its subsidiaries after giving effect to adjustments directly attributable to the transaction, including depreciation, amortization, interest expense, intercompany eliminations and related income tax effects. The unaudited pro forma net income also reflects the effects of the issuance of the €600 term loan under the 2015 Senior Facilities Agreement and the associated repayment of the term loan outstanding under the 2011 Senior Facilities Agreement as if such transactions had occurred on October 1, 2013. Amounts in the table below exclude the loss associated with the early extinguishment of debt under the 2011 Senior Facilities Agreement (see Note 6):
|  | 2015 |  | 2014
Revenues |  | $ | 7,065.8 |  |  | $ | 8,999.6 |
Net income attributable to UGI Corporation |  | $ | 341.2 |  |  | $ | 385.5 |
Earnings per common share attributable to UGI Corporation shareholders: |  |  |  |
Basic |  | $ | 1.97 |  |  | $ | 2.23 |
Diluted |  | $ | 1.94 |  |  | $ | 2.20 |
The unaudited pro forma consolidated information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the Totalgaz Acquisition occurred on the date indicated nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results. In connection with the Totalgaz Acquisition, the Company agreed with the French Competition Authority (the “FCA”) to divest certain assets and investments of Totalgaz SAS and certain assets of Antargaz located in France no later than 15 months subsequent to the Acquisition Date. Following the closing of the Totalgaz Acquisition, two competitors in the French LPG distribution market challenged the decision of the FCA. The competitors’ request for interim measures suspending the effectiveness of the agreed remedies was denied by the supreme administrative court (conseil d’etat). Proceedings on the merits are continuing. While UGI cannot predict the final outcome of these proceedings at this time, we believe the FCA and the Company have strong defenses to the claims and intend to vigorously defend against them. Other Acquisitions During Fiscal 2015, Flaga acquired Total’s LPG distribution business in Hungary for total cash consideration of $17.6 and AmeriGas OLP acquired several retail propane distribution businesses for $20.8 in cash. During Fiscal 2014, Energy Services acquired a retail natural gas marketing business located principally in western Pennsylvania from EQT Energy, LLC, an affiliate of EQT Corporation, for total cash consideration of $20 and AmeriGas OLP acquired several retail propane distribution businesses for $15.7 in cash. During Fiscal 2013, Flaga acquired BP’s LPG distribution business in Poland for total cash consideration of $36 which Flaga financed with cash proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt; AmeriGas OLP acquired two domestic retail propane distribution businesses for total cash consideration of $20; and Energy Services acquired a non-operating working interest in natural gas acreage in the Marcellus Shale region of Pennsylvania for $23 in cash.
