2. | Acquisitions
On October 31, 2013, the Company closed on an Asset Purchase Agreement with Bison Coach, LLC for the acquisition of its net operating assets for cash consideration of $16,718, subject to adjustments, which was funded entirely from the Company’s cash on hand. As a result of the purchase, the Company formed a new entity, Bison Coach (“Bison”), which will operate as an independent operation in the same manner as the Company’s other existing recreational vehicle subsidiaries. The Company purchased the net assets of Bison to supplement its existing product offerings with Bison’s equestrian products with living quarters. We have included the purchased assets and assumed liabilities of Bison in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet based on our preliminary approximation of fair values as of the acquisition date. The determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, particularly the fair value of the individual intangible assets acquired, requires significant judgment. This fair value analysis and valuation has not been fully completed. The fair values of the intangible assets and residual goodwill are among the most significant areas to be finalized and therefore are subject to change. We anticipate completing the fair value determinations during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Our final fair value determinations may be different than those reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at October 31, 2013 as noted in the table below. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values assigned to the Bison net assets acquired on October 31, 2013:
Current assets |  |  | $ 3,995 |
Property, plant and equipment |  |  | 625 |
Dealer network |  |  | 7,800 |
Trademarks |  |  | 2,000 |
Backlog |  |  | 140 |
Goodwill |  |  | 6,060 |
Current liabilities |  |  | (3,902) |
Total fair value of net assets acquired |  |  | $ 16,718 |
The preliminary fair values assigned to the intangible assets listed above were based on actual fair value determinations made for similar assets in similar recent acquisitions, adjusted as necessary, for specific factors applicable to Bison. The estimated weighted average useful life of the identified intangible assets is expected to be between 10 and 12 years. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. On August 30, 2013, the Company closed on an Asset Purchase Agreement with Livin’ Lite Corp. for the acquisition of its net operating assets for aggregate cash consideration of $16,769, net of cash acquired. As of October 31, 2013, the net cash consideration of $16,769 consisted of cash paid of $17,056, funded entirely from the Company’s cash on hand, less $287 of cash due from the settlement of certain closing adjustments. As a result of the purchase, the Company formed a new entity, Livin’ Lite RV, Inc. (“Livin’ Lite”), which will continue to operate as an independent operation in the same manner as the Company’s existing recreational vehicle subsidiaries. The Company purchased the Livin’ Lite operating assets to expand its recreational vehicle market share and complement its existing brands with Livin’ Lite’s advanced lightweight product offerings. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the Livin’ Lite net assets acquired, which are based on internal and independent external valuations. The valuation of acquired intangible assets has not yet been finalized, but is expected to be completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2014.

Other current assets |  |  | 3,626 |
Property, plant and equipment |  |  | 137 |
Dealer network |  |  | 3,200 |

On the acquisition date, amortizable intangible assets had a weighted average useful life of 10.2 years. The dealer network was valued based on the Discounted Cash Flow Method and will be amortized on an accelerated cash flow basis over 8 years. The trademarks were valued on the Relief from Royalty Method and will be amortized on a straight line basis over 20 years. The design technology assets were valued on the Relief from Royalty Method and will be amortized on a straight line basis over 5 years. The non-compete agreements and backlog were both valued based on the Discounted Cash Flow Method and will be amortized on a straight line basis over 2 years and 6 weeks, respectively. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
