Acquisitions | Acquisitions LB Holdco, Inc. Acquisition On February 1, 2023, Sealed Air acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of LB Holdco, Inc., the parent company of Liquibox, Inc. (collectively, "Liquibox"), a pioneer, innovator and manufacturer of Bag-in-Box fluids and liquids packaging and dispensing solutions for food, beverage, consumer goods and industrial end markets. The acquisition is included in our Food reporting segment. Consideration paid was approximately $1.16 billion in cash. In March of 2024, subsequent to the closure of the measurement period, we reached a final purchase price settlement with the seller of $3.5 million, which was recorded as income within Other expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the first quarter of 2024. We financed the consideration paid and related fees and expenses through borrowings under our senior secured credit facility, proceeds from the issuance of senior notes, and cash on hand. See Note 13, "Debt and Credit Facilities," for additional details. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, acquisition-related expenses recognized for the Liquibox acquisition were $0.1 million and $12.1 million, respectively. These expenses are included within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Goodwill is a result of the synergies that are expected to originate from the combination of Cryovac and Liquibox solutions for the Company, as well as growth of our sustainable packaging portfolio. This goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill balance associated with Liquibox is included in the Food reportable segment. Liquibox Supplemental Information The following table presents the amounts of net sales and net loss attributed to Liquibox since the acquisition date that are included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023:

Pro Forma Financial Information The following table presents the Company’s unaudited pro forma financial information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, assuming the acquisition of Liquibox had occurred on January 1, 2022. The information below reflects pro forma adjustments based on available information and certain assumptions that Sealed Air believes are factual and supportable. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the transaction actually taken place on January 1, 2022 and is not intended to be a projection of future results and gives no effect to any future synergistic benefits that may result from the combination or the costs of integrating the acquired operations with those of the Company.
(In millions) |  | Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 |  | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
Net sales |  | $ | 1,381.8 |  |  | $ | 4,137.0 |
Net earnings |  | $ | 56.7 |  |  | $ | 227.6 |
The unaudited pro forma financial information includes, where applicable, adjustments for (i) additional expense from the fair value step-up of inventory, (ii) additional amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets, (iii) additional depreciation expense related to acquired property and equipment, (iv) transaction costs and other one-time non-recurring costs, (v) additional interest expense for borrowings related to the acquisition and amortization associated with fair value adjustments of debt assumed, and (vi) associated tax-related impacts of adjustments. Other 2023 Acquisition Activity During the second quarter of 2023, Food had other acquisition activity resulting in a total purchase price paid of $14.9 million. The Company allocated the consideration transferred to the fair value of assets acquired, resulting in an allocation to goodwill of $7.9 million. In the third quarter of 2023, the final purchase price adjustments resulted in an insignificant decrease to goodwill. There were no other identifiable intangible assets acquired. This acquisition activity is expected to supplement our developmental efforts for sustainable packaging and accelerate our speed to market for certain sustainable solutions. This acquisition activity was not material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
