Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions Acquisition of Globe Holding Company, LLC On July 31, 2017, we acquired 100% of the common stock in Globe Holding Company, LLC ("Globe") in an all-cash transaction valued at $215 million plus a working capital adjustment of $1.4 million. There is no contingent consideration. Based in Pittsfield, NH, Globe is a leading innovator and provider of firefighter protective clothing and boots. This acquisition aligns with our corporate strategy in that it strengthens our leading position in the North American fire service market. The transaction was funded through borrowings on our unsecured senior revolving credit facility. Globe operating results are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date as part of the Americas reportable segment. The acquisition qualifies as a business combination and will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. We finalized the purchase price allocation as of June 30, 2018. The following table summarizes the fair values of the Globe assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:
(In millions) | July 31, 2017
Current assets (including cash of $58 thousand) | $ | 28.6 |
Property, plant and equipment and other noncurrent assets | 8.3 |
Trade name | 60.0 |
Distributor relationships | 40.2 |
Acquired technology and other intangible assets | 10.5 |
Goodwill | 74.5 |
Total assets acquired | 222.1 |
Total liabilities assumed | 5.7 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 216.4 |
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition have been recorded at their fair values. Fair values were determined by management, based, in part on an independent valuation performed by a third party valuation specialist. The valuation methods used to determine the fair value of intangible assets included the relief from royalty method for trade name and technology related intangible assets; the excess earnings approach for distributor relationships using distributor inputs and contributory charges; and the cost method for assembled workforce which is included in goodwill. A number of significant assumptions and estimates were involved in the application of these valuation methods, including sales volumes and prices, royalty rates, costs to produce, tax rates, capital spending, discount rates, and working capital changes. Cash flow forecasts were generally based on Globe pre-acquisition forecasts coupled with estimated MSA sales synergies. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives. The distributor relationships acquired in the Globe transaction will be amortized over a period of 20 years and the remaining identifiable assets will be amortized over 5 years. The trade name was determined to have an indefinite useful life. We will perform an impairment assessment annually on the trade name, or sooner if there is a triggering event. Additionally, as part of each impairment assessment, we will reassess whether the asset continues to have an indefinite life or whether it should be reassessed with a finite life. Estimated future amortization expense related to the identifiable intangible assets is approximately $1 million for the remainder of 2018, $4.1 million in each of the next three years 2019 through 2021 and $3.2 million in 2022. Estimated future depreciation expense related to Globe property, plant and equipment is approximately $0.3 million for the remainder of 2018 and $1.0 million in each of the next four years. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Among the factors that contributed to a purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired were the acquisition of an assembled workforce, the expected synergies and other benefits that we believe will result from combining the operations of Globe with our operations. Goodwill of $74.5 million related to the Globe acquisition has been recorded in the Americas reportable segment and is deductible for tax purposes. Our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, include strategic transaction costs of $0.2 million, including an insignificant amount of transaction and integration costs related to the acquisition of Globe Holding Company LLC. Our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, include strategic transaction costs of $3.4 million. These costs are reported in selling, general and administrative expenses. The operating results of the Globe acquisition have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date through September 30, 2018. Our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, include Globe sales and net income of $86.6 million and $9.7 million, respectively.
