Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions Acquisition of Bacharach On July 1, 2021, we acquired 100% of the common stock of Bacharach in an all cash transaction valued at $329.4 million, net of cash acquired. Headquartered near Pittsburgh in New Kensington, PA, Bacharach is a leader in gas detection technologies used in the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration ("HVAC-R") markets. This acquisition expanded MSA’s gas detection portfolio and leverages MSA’s product and manufacturing expertise into new markets. Bacharach's operating results are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date within the Americas, International and Corporate reportable segments. The acquisition qualified as a business combination and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The following table summarizes the fair values of the Bacharach assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition:
(In millions) | July 1, 2021
Current assets (including cash of $11.7 million) | $ | 32.1 |
Property, plant and equipment and other noncurrent assets | 4.3 |
Customer relationships | 123.0 |
Developed technology | 20.5 |
Trade name | 15.0 |
Goodwill | 193.5 |
Total assets acquired | 388.4 |
Total liabilities assumed | (47.3) |
Net assets acquired | $ | 341.1 |
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition were recorded at 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 excess earnings approach for customer relationships using customer inputs and contributory charges; the relief from royalty method for trade name and developed technologies; and the cost method for assembled workforce was included in goodwill. A number of significant assumptions and estimates were involved in the application of these valuation methods, including forecasted sales volumes and prices, royalty rates, costs to produce, tax rates, capital spending, discount rates, attrition rates and working capital changes. Cash flow forecasts were generally based on Bacharach 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 customer relationships, developed technology and trade name acquired in the Bacharach transaction are being amortized over periods of 21 years, 7 to 9 years and 20 years, respectively. The step up to fair value of acquired inventory as part of the purchase price allocation totaled $2.3 million. The amortization of the inventory step up was included in Cost of products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2021. 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 Bacharach with our operations. Goodwill of $193.5 million related to the Bacharach acquisition was recorded, with $154.6 million and $38.9 million allocated to the Americas reportable segment and International reportable segment, respectively. This Goodwill is non-deductible for tax purposes. Acquisition of Bristol Uniforms and Bell Apparel On January 25, 2021, we acquired 100% of the common stock of B T Q Limited, including Bristol in an all-cash transaction valued at $63.0 million, net of cash acquired. Bristol, which is headquartered in the U.K., is a leading innovator and provider of protective apparel to the fire, rescue services, and utility sectors. The acquisition strengthens MSA's position as a global market leader in fire service personal protective equipment products, which include breathing apparatus, firefighter helmets, thermal imaging cameras, and firefighter protective apparel, while providing an avenue to expand its business in the U.K. and key European markets. Bristol is also a leading manufacturer of flame-retardant, waterproof, and other protective work wear for the utility industry. Marketed under the Bell Apparel brand, this line complements MSA's existing and broad range of offerings for the global utilities market. Bristol's operating results are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date as part of the International reportable segment. The acquisition qualified as a business combination and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The following table summarizes the fair values of the Bristol assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition:
(In millions) | January 25, 2021
Current assets (including cash of $13.3 million) | $ | 37.1 |
Net investment in sales-type leases, noncurrent | 29.0 |
Property, plant and equipment and other noncurrent assets | 12.0 |
Customer relationships | 4.5 |
Trade name and other intangible assets | 1.4 |
Goodwill | 4.9 |
Total assets acquired | 88.9 |
Total liabilities assumed | (12.6) |
Net assets acquired | $ | 76.3 |
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition were recorded at 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 excess earnings approach for customer relationships using customer inputs and contributory charges; the relief from royalty method for trade name; 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 forecasted sales volumes and prices, royalty rates, costs to produce, tax rates, capital spending, discount rates, attrition rates and working capital changes. Cash flow forecasts were generally based on Bristol 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 customer relationships and trade name acquired in the Bristol transaction will be amortized over a period of 15 years. The step up to fair value of acquired inventory as part of the purchase price allocation totaled $1.5 million. The amortization of the inventory step up was included in Cost of products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2021. 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 Bristol with our operations. Goodwill of $4.9 million related to the Bristol acquisition has been recorded in the International reportable segment and is non-deductible for tax purposes. The operating results of the Bristol and Bacharach acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates. Our results for the year ended December 31, 2021, include combined net sales and net loss of $67.2 million and $6.3 million, respectively. The following unaudited pro forma information presents our combined results as if the Bristol and Bacharach acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of 2020. The unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared to give effect to events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition; (2) factually supportable; and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined company's results.
