Equity Acquisition and Business Combination [Abstract] |
Business Combination and Equity Acquisition | Business Combination and Equity Acquisition CWH Acquisition Effective October 1, 2022, Federated Hermes completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of C.W. Henderson and Associates, Inc. (CWH), a Chicago-based registered investment advisor specializing in the management of tax-exempt municipal securities (CWH Acquisition). This acquisition will enhance Federated Hermes’ existing separately managed accounts business. The CWH Acquisition included an upfront cash payment of $28.1 million. The purchase agreement also provides for a series of contingent purchase price payments, which can total as much as $17.6 million in the aggregate and can become payable annually over the next five years based on certain levels of net revenue growth. Federated Hermes has performed a valuation of the fair value of the CWH Acquisition. Due to the timing of the acquisition and status of the valuation work, the purchase price allocation for assets acquired (excluding the Right-of-Use Asset) and liabilities assumed (excluding the Lease Liability) is preliminary. Provisional amounts will be finalized as new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of October 1, 2022. Although preliminary results of the valuation are reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2022, the final purchase price allocation may reflect adjustments to this preliminary valuation and such adjustments may be material. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation determined as of the purchase date:
(in millions) |  |
Right-of-Use Asset |  | $ | 0.8 |
Intangible Assets 1 |  | 15.4 |
Goodwill 2 |  | 16.4 |
Less: Lease Liability Assumed |  | 0.8 |
Less: Fair Value of Contingent Consideration |  | 3.7 |
Total Upfront Purchase Price Consideration |  | $ | 28.1 |
1 Includes $14.8 million for customer relationships with an estimated useful life of 12 years and $0.6 million for a trade name with an estimated useful life of five years, all of which are recorded in Intangibles Assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 2 The goodwill recognized is attributable to enhanced revenue and AUM growth opportunities from future investors and the assembled workforce of CWH and is deductible for tax purposes. 2022 Acquisition of FHL Noncontrolling Interests On March 14, 2022, Federated Hermes completed the 2022 Acquisition of FHL Noncontrolling Interests resulting in the acquisition of the remaining approximately 10% noncontrolling interests in FHL from a trustee of a non-U.S. domiciled employee benefit trust established for the benefit of certain members of FHL’s management, a non-U.S. resident former FHL employee and other non-U.S. resident key FHL employees under a long-term incentive plan established in connection with the 2018 acquisition of FHL. As a result of the 2022 Acquisition of FHL Noncontrolling Interests, FHL became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Federated Hermes. The 2022 Acquisition of FHL Noncontrolling Interests was transacted in shares whereby Federated Hermes issued awards of restricted Class B common stock under Federated Hermes Stock Incentive Plan and Federated Hermes UK Sub-Plan, as amended, and treasury Class B common stock, in exchange for the beneficial interests in shares of FHL. The FHL shares were exchanged at fair value for Federated Hermes shares valued at £36.4 million or $47.5 million, which was based on a third-party valuation of FHL. See Note (13) for additional information regarding the share exchange.
