Acquisitions [Abstract]  
Acquisitions ACQUISITIONS
The Company’s acquisitions are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. In accordance with this guidance, the fair value of consideration transferred is allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the completion of the acquisition, with the remaining amount recognized as goodwill. A single estimate of fair value results from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and relies heavily on estimates and assumptions. The Company’s judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, can materially impact the Company’s results of operations.
Under ASC 805-10, acquisition-related costs (e.g., advisory, legal, valuation and other professional fees) are not included as a component of consideration transferred, but are accounted for as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred. Acquisition-related costs are included as a component of Acquisition and integration-related expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Acquisition of MRL
On July 1, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and operations of MRL. The Company expects that MRL will provide an efficient entry into a new line of product offerings and access to new markets. As the acquisition closed on July 1, 2019, the assets and liabilities of MRL have been consolidated into the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2019, while the post-acquisition results of operations have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, within the Environmental Solutions Group.
The initial cash consideration paid by the Company to acquire MRL was $49.8 million, inclusive of a preliminary adjustment for working capital and other post-closing items. The purchase price was subsequently reduced by a final adjustment for working capital and other post-closing items in the amount of $0.8 million, which the Company received in the first quarter of 2020. In addition, there is a contingent earn-out payment of up to $15.5 million, which is contingent upon the achievement of certain financial targets and objectives. The contingent earn-out payment, if earned, would be due to be paid following the third anniversary of the closing.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s purchase price allocation is considered to be final. The following table summarizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

Acquisition of TBEI
On June 2, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of GenNx/TBEI Intermediate Co., a Delaware corporation, (collectively, with its subsidiaries, “TBEI”). TBEI is a leading U.S. manufacturer of dump truck bodies and trailers serving maintenance and infrastructure end-markets. The acquisition of TBEI strengthens the Environmental Solutions Group’s market position as a specialty vehicle manufacturer in maintenance and infrastructure markets, leveraging its expertise in building chassis-based vehicles and balancing the mix of revenues it generates from municipal and industrial markets. The acquisition closed on June 2, 2017, and the assets and liabilities of TBEI have been consolidated into the Consolidated Balance Sheets since that date, while the post-acquisition results of operations have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, within the Environmental Solutions Group.
The Company initially paid $271.8 million to acquire TBEI, inclusive of cash acquired. The purchase price was subsequently reduced by an adjustment for working capital and other post-closing items in the amount of $3.0 million, which was received in the first quarter of 2018.

In connection with the June 3, 2016 acquisition of substantially all of the assets and operations of Joe Johnson Equipment, Inc. and Joe Johnson Equipment (USA), Inc. (collectively, “JJE”), the Company paid initial cash consideration of approximately $96.6 million. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company paid additional consideration of C$10 million (approximately $7.6 million) to settle the contingent consideration liability, based on the achievement of specified financial results over the three-year period following the closing of the acquisition.

Of the total $13.4 million of additional consideration funded during the third quarter of 2019, $3.1 million has been included as a component of Net cash provided by operating activities within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, with the remaining $10.3 million, representing the fair value of the additional consideration established in the Company’s purchase price allocation, being included as a component of Net cash (used for) provided by financing activities.
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s Environmental Solutions Group recorded net sales of $3.3 million, $1.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, relating to products sold to Ingenieria Y Servicios Orbitec SPA, an entity which is majority-owned by affiliates of the former owners of JJE.
