Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisitions [Text Block] | Acquisitions The company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. The results of operations of acquisitions are included in the company's consolidated results from their respective dates of acquisition. The company allocates the purchase price of each acquisition to the tangible assets, liabilities, and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. In certain circumstances, a portion of purchase price may be contingent upon the achievement of certain operating results. The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired and contingent consideration were determined primarily by using an income approach which was based on assumptions and estimates made by management. Significant assumptions utilized in the income approach were based on company specific information and projections, which are not observable in the market and are thus considered Level 3 measurements by authoritative guidance. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities has been recorded as goodwill. Any change in the estimated fair value of the net assets prior to the finalization of the allocation for acquisitions could change the amount of the purchase price allocable to goodwill. The company is not aware of any information that indicates the final purchase price allocations will differ materially from the preliminary estimates. 2012 Acquisitions During the first quarter of 2012, the company completed four acquisitions. The aggregate consideration for these four acquisitions was $180,767, which included cash acquired of $7,900, debt paid at closing of $4,383, and $14,850 of contingent consideration. The impact of these acquisitions was not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. On April 3, 2012, the company announced an agreement to acquire the ALTIMATE Group ("ALTIMATE"), a subsidiary of DCC plc. ALTIMATE is a European value-added distributor of enterprise and midrange computing products, services, and solutions. This acquisition is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2012. This acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 2011 Acquisitions On March 1, 2011, the company acquired all of the assets and operations of the RF, Wireless and Power Division ("RFPD") of Richardson Electronics, Ltd. ("Richardson") for a purchase price of $235,973. Richardson RFPD is a leading value-added global component distributor and provider of engineered solutions serving the global radio frequency and wireless communications market. Richardson RFPD's product set includes devices for infrastructure and wireless networks, power management and alternative energy markets. On January 3, 2011, the company acquired Nu Horizons Electronics Corp. ("Nu Horizons") for a purchase price of $161,125, which included cash acquired of $18,085 and $26,375 of debt paid at closing. Nu Horizons is a leading global distributor of advanced technology semiconductor, display, illumination, and power solutions to a wide variety of commercial original equipment manufacturers and electronic manufacturing service providers in the components business. The fair value of the net assets acquired relating to the Nu Horizons acquisition, including identifiable intangible assets, exceeded the purchase price paid. Accordingly, during the first quarter of 2011, the company recognized the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over purchase price paid of $1,755 ($1,078 net of related taxes or $.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) as a gain on bargain purchase which was subsequently adjusted downward by $667 ($410 net of related taxes) during the fourth quarter of 2011. During 2011, the company also completed six additional acquisitions. The aggregate consideration for these six acquisitions was $175,892, which included $22,337 of cash acquired. The impact of these acquisitions was not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The following table summarizes the company's unaudited consolidated results of operations for the first quarter of 2011, as well as the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations of the company, as though the 2011 acquisitions occurred on January 1:
|  | Quarter Ended
|  | April 2, 2011
|  | As Reported |  | Pro Forma
Sales |  | $ | 5,223,003 |  |  | $ | 5,354,821 |
Net income attributable to shareholders |  | 136,309 |  |  | 140,276 |
Net income per share: |  |  |  |  |
Basic |  | $ | 1.18 |  |  | $ | 1.22 |
Diluted |  | $ | 1.16 |  |  | $ | 1.19 |
The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations do not purport to be indicative of the results obtained had these acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of 2011, or of those results that may be obtained in the future. Additionally, the above table does not reflect any anticipated cost savings or cross-selling opportunities expected to result from these acquisitions. Other During the first quarter of 2012, the company made a payment of $2,526 to increase its ownership in a majority-owned subsidiary. The payment was recorded as a reduction to capital in excess of par value, partially offset by the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest.
