On August 6, 2012 we formed a limited liability company with Barnabas Health, a New Jersey owner and operator of a large New Jersey hospital system, for the purpose of creating a New Jersey imaging network under our management. Our first endeavor was to establish a multi-modality imaging center located in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey, of which we own 49%. Our initial investment of approximately $1.8 million was recorded to investment in non-consolidated joint ventures.

 

On July 23, 2012, we completed our acquisition of a multi-modality imaging center, Orthopedic Imaging Center, LLC. located in Redlands, California, for cash consideration of $700,000. We have made a fair value determination of the acquired assets and approximately $400,000 of fixed assets and $300,000 of goodwill was recorded with respect to this transaction.

 

On July 1, 2012, we completed the sale of a 41% portion of our ownership interest of one of our consolidated joint ventures to our existing partner in that joint venture for $1.8 million.  After the sale, we retained a 49% ownership interest in this joint venture. As a result of this transaction we de-consolidated this joint venture and recorded the fair value of our remaining interest as an investment in non-consolidated joint venture accounted for under the equity method.  We recorded a gain on de-consolidation of a joint venture of approximately $2.8 million with respect to this transaction. Approximately $1.4 million of this gain is related to the re-measurement to current fair value of our remaining 49% interest, using a market based valuation approach. The main input used in our valuation model was the $1.8 million sale price of a 41% interest.

On April 1, 2012, we completed our acquisition of West Coast Radiology, which consists of five multi-modality imaging centers in Orange County, California, for cash consideration of $8.1 million and the assumption of approximately $1.4 million of capital lease obligations. The centers are located in Anaheim, Santa Ana/Tustin, Irvine and Mission Viejo/Laguna Niguel and operate a combination of MRI, CT, ultrasound, mammography, X-ray and other related modalities. We have made a fair value determination of the acquired assets and approximately $715,000 of working capital, $3.1 million of fixed assets, $5.4 million of goodwill, and $200,000 of intangible assets was recorded with respect to this transaction.

 

On February 29, 2012, we completed the acquisition of a multi-modality imaging center from TODIC, L.P. located in Camarillo, California for cash consideration of $350,000 and the assumption of a $121,000 capital lease liability. The facility provides MRI, CT, mammography, ultrasound and X-ray services.

On November 7, 2011, we completed our acquisition of all outstanding equity interests in Raven Holdings U.S., Inc. (“RH”) from CML Healthcare, Inc. The acquisition of RH includes two operating subsidiaries, American Radiology Services (“ARS”) and The Imaging Institute (“TII”).  ARS operates 15 free-standing outpatient imaging facilities in Maryland (including two facilities held in joint ventures with hospital partners) and one facility in Delaware.  In addition to the imaging centers, ARS provides on-site staffing and professional interpretation services to five Maryland hospitals and teleradiology services to nine additional hospitals and radiology group customers.  TII operates five imaging facilities in the Cranston, Warwick and Providence local markets in Rhode Island.  Aggregate consideration for the purchase was approximately $40.4 million, consisting of approximately $28.2 million in cash, $9.0 million in a seller note and approximately $3.4 million of assumed equipment-related debt.  With the services of an external valuation expert, we have made a final fair value determination of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and approximately $2.4 million of working capital, $2.3 million of assets held for sale, $22.8 million of fixed assets, which is approximately $8.1 million lower than our initial estimate, $1.9 million of investments in non-consolidated joint ventures, which is approximately $933,000 higher than our initial estimates, $2.2 million of intangible assets, $279,000 of other assets and $11.8 million of goodwill was recorded with respect to this transaction. We also assumed approximately $3.1 million of other liabilities relating to unfavorable lease contract reserves, which is approximately $2.2 million higher than our initial estimate.
