On February 29, 2024, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Wise Water Solutions, LLC, doing business as Springwell Water Filtration Systems ("SpringWell") for a purchase price of $105.6 million, net of cash acquired of $1.4 million. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facility. The results of SpringWell are reported as part of the Water Innovations ("Water") segment. We have not included pro forma financial information as the transaction is immaterial to our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The fair value allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of February 29, 2024, was $105.6 million, which includes $85.2 million of goodwill. Goodwill includes expected sales and cost synergies and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes..
