The VION Ingredients business is now conducted under the name Darling Ingredients International. Darling Ingredients International is a worldwide leader in the development and production of specialty ingredients from animal by-products for applications in pharmaceuticals, food, pet food, feed, fuel, bioenergy and fertilizer. On January 7, 2014, Darling Ingredients International operated a global network of production facilities across five continents covering all aspects of animal by-product processing through six brands: Rendac (bioenergy), Sonac (bone products, proteins, fats, edible fats and plasma products), Ecoson (bioenergy), Rousselot (gelatin and collagen hydrolysates), CTH (natural casings) and Best Hides (hides and skins). The purchase of the VION Companies allows the Company to have a global reach. The purchase price for the transaction was approximately€1.6 billion in cash (approximately $2.2 billion at the exchange rate of €1.00:USD$1.3605 ).

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company completed the purchase accounting for the VION Acquisition. Subsequent to the preliminary purchase price allocation in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company made adjustments to the provisional amounts to increase working capital of approximately $84.0 million, decrease property, plant and equipment of approximately $27.3 million, decrease identifiable intangibles of $17.6 million, decrease goodwill of approximately $72.1 million and increase other of approximately $27.0 million. The impact of these adjustments during the measurement period did not have a material impact to earnings for fiscal 2014 or any quarterly period during fiscal 2014. Goodwill of approximately $223.2 million was assigned to the Feed Ingredients segment, approximately $375.6 million was assigned to the Food Ingredients segment and approximately $103.8 million was assigned to the Fuel Ingredients segment, respectively. Of the VION Acquisition goodwill, approximately 33% is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Identifiable intangibles include trademarks and trade names with indefinite lives of approximately $32.0 million and definite lived intangible assets including routes of approximately $190.2 million with a weighted average useful life of 10 years, $225.6 million in permits with a weighted average useful life of 15 years and patents and other intangibles of approximately $16.5 million with a weighted average useful life of 25 years.

The acquisition includes Custom Blenders' operations in Indiana, Georgia, Texas, and Arkansas.
