Acquisitions | Acquisitions AptoVision Technologies Inc. On July 1, 2017, the Company acquired AptoVision Technologies Inc. ("AptoVision"), a privately-held provider of uncompressed, zero-frame latency, video-over-IP solutions addressing the professional audio visual market. The unique combination of AptoVision's advanced algorithms for real-time, full bandwidth video transmission over IP networks, and Semtech's industry leading high-speed signal integrity and chip development expertise is expected to enable the adoption of Software Defined Video over Ethernet ("SDVoE") accelerating this natural progression in the evolution of video transport. Under the terms of the share purchase agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interest in AptoVision for a cash payment of $17.6 million at closing, net of acquired cash, and a commitment to pay additional contingent consideration of up to a maximum of $47.0 million over three years if certain goals are achieved in each of the earn out periods. The fair value of the additional contingent consideration (the "AptoVision Earn-out") as of January 28, 2018 was $21.0 million, of which $8.9 million is presented within "Accrued liabilities" and $12.1 million is presented within "Other long-term liabilities" in the Balance Sheets. For the fiscal year ended January 28, 2018, acquisition related transaction costs of $1.6 million are accounted for as an expense in the period in which the costs are incurred and are presented within "Selling, general and administrative" expense in the Statements of Income. AptoVision met the definition of a business and is accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the FASB’s ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The consideration to acquire AptoVision was allocated to the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of AptoVision based on their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. A summary of the allocation is as follows:
(in thousands) | Estimated Useful Life |  | January 28, 2018
Finite-lived intangible asset - Developed Technology | 6-7 years |  | $ | 20,000 |
Finite-lived intangible asset - Customer Relationships | 3 years |  | 4,000 |
Indefinite-lived intangible asset - in-process research and development ("IPR&D") |  |  | 2,300 |
Goodwill |  |  | 12,194 |
Other (liabilities) assets, net |  |  | (3,875 | )
Total consideration |  |  | $ | 34,619 |
The fair value of the developed technology rights acquired was determined by estimating the probability-weighted net cash flows attributable to these rights discounted to present value using a discount rate that represents the estimated rate that market participants would use to value this intangible asset. The developed technology rights acquired relate to AptoVision’s BlueRiver™ platform. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined by estimating the amount that would be required currently to replace the customers from lead generations to product shipment. The IPR&D primarily relates to an assumed license agreement that had been executed in close proximity to the acquisition date. The investment in the license approximates fair value. The $12.2 million excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. The goodwill resulted from expected synergies and other benefits from the transaction. The Company expects that all such goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes. The purchase price allocation for the AptoVision acquisition is complete. Net revenues and earnings attributable to AptoVision since the acquisition date were not material. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented as AptoVision’s annual financial results are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Triune Systems, L.L.C On March 4, 2015 the Company acquired Triune Systems, L.L.C. ("Triune"), a privately-held supplier of isolated switching, wireless charging and power management platforms targeted at, among other things, high and low power, high efficiency applications. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interest in Triune for a guaranteed minimum purchase price of $45.0 million consisting of $35.0 million in cash paid at closing, with an additional cash consideration of $10.0 million of which $9.5 million was paid in September 2015 and $0.5 million was paid in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017. In March 2015, the Company borrowed $35.0 million under its revolving line of credit in connection with this acquisition (see Note 10 for discussion regarding Credit Facilities). Subject to achieving certain future financial goals ("Triune Earn-out"), up to $70.0 million of contingent consideration will be paid over three years if certain revenue targets are achieved in each of the fiscal years 2016 through 2018. An additional payment of up to $16.0 million will be paid after fiscal year 2018 if certain cumulative revenue and operating income targets are achieved. The Triune Earn-out targets for fiscal year 2017 were not met and the Company does not expect the fiscal year 2018 targets to be achieved. The fair value of the Triune Earn-out liability was zero as of January 28, 2018. (See Notes 5 and 13). The Triune business meets the definition of a business and is accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the FASB’s ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price allocation for the Triune acquisition was finalized in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016. Total acquisition consideration has been allocated to the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of Triune based on their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Acquisition-related transaction costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred, but are accounted for as an expense in the period in which the costs are incurred. Any excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been allocated to goodwill. The goodwill resulted from expected synergies from the transaction, including complementary products that will enhance the Company’s overall product portfolio, and opportunities within new markets. The Company expects that $16.1 million of goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes. The Company’s allocation of the total purchase price for Triune is summarized below:
(in thousands) | At March 4, 2015
Current assets | $ | 877 |
Property, plant, and equipment, net | 226 |
Amortizable intangible assets | 12,000 |
Goodwill | 49,384 |
Current liabilities | (1,287 | )
Earn-out liability | (16,200 | )
Total acquisition consideration | $ | 45,000 |
Triune’s technology complemented the portfolio of products offered in the Company’s legacy Power and High-Reliability Products Group. The Company concluded that the Triune and legacy Power and High-Reliability components should be aggregated and deemed a single reporting unit after considering similarities among different economic characteristics such as concentration of key customers, unit selling price decreases, increased competitors due to market expansion and chain of command of the newly acquired business. Net revenues and earnings attributable to Triune since the acquisition date were not material. Pro forma operating results have not been presented as Triune’s annual operating results have not been material to the Company’s consolidated financial results.
