Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] |
ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS ViaForm Distribution Rights On June 1, 2023, the Company reacquired the right to market and distribute directly (rather than through its exclusive distributor) its ViaForm® electrochemical deposition products by terminating a long-standing distribution agreement for $200 million, including $170 million paid at closing and a deferred payment of $30.0 million which was paid in the fourth quarter of 2023. Following the completion of the transaction, the Company now manages all aspects of the ViaForm® product line in-house, which it believes will result in a more efficient supply chain and improved customer outcomes for leading semiconductor fabricators. The transaction did not meet the accounting definition of a business which precluded any goodwill from being recognized and resulted in the Company capitalizing $0.5 million of transaction costs. The financial results of this transaction are included in the Company's Semiconductor Solutions business within its Electronics segment. In connection with the transaction, the Company recognized a reacquired distribution right intangible asset of $187 million, which will be amortized over 15 years, and a receivable of $13.5 million, which was settled in the fourth quarter of 2023 with $6.1 million of inventory and $7.4 million cash (which reduced the purchase price paid by the cash received). The amounts paid are deductible for tax purposes. Kuprion Acquisition On May 19, 2023, the Company completed the Kuprion Acquisition for $15.9 million, net of cash, with potential additional payments in various installments, which are not to exceed $259 million in aggregate, to be made upon the achievement of certain milestones associated with product qualification and revenue through December 31, 2030. The Company acquired Kuprion, Inc. to complement its next-generation nano-copper technology for the semiconductor, circuit board and electronics assembly markets. As the acquisition did not meet the accounting definition of a business and the technology acquired was still in development with no alternative future use, $15.7 million was expensed to "Research and development" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Any potential earn-out payments to be paid based on milestones will be recognized when probable and estimable and either expensed as additional research and development expense, if the technology did not yet meet the accounting definition of an asset, or capitalized as a developed technology intangible asset. The Company did not make any payments associated with the contingent consideration during the year ended December 31, 2023. Kuprion, Inc. is included in the Company's Semiconductor Solutions business within its Electronics segment. In the first quarter of 2024, one of the product qualification milestones agreed to as part of the Kuprion Acquisition was achieved. As a result, the Company made a payment of $3.9 million, which was expensed to "Research and development" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as the technology did not yet meet the accounting definition of an asset. The payment was included in "Acquisitions, net of cash acquired" in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as a cash outflow from investing activities. The amounts paid, including future consideration, are not deductible for tax purposes. HSO Acquisition On January 26, 2022, the Company completed the HSO Acquisition for approximately $23 million, net of cash. HSO is a multi-national developer of technology and chemistry for decorative and functional surface finishing with a focus on environmentally sustainable products, especially in the field of plating on plastics. HSO is included in the Company's Industrial Solutions business within its Industrial & Specialty segment and was not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded approximately $11.7 million of finite-lived intangible assets, primarily customer relationships.
