Acquisition of Explosive Trace Detection Business

On July 7, 2017, we acquired the global explosive trace detection business ("ETD") from Smiths Group plc. This acquisition was a carve out from a larger entity. We financed the total purchase price of $80.5 million with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving bank line of credit. The valuation of certain assets and liabilities of ETD were performed by a third party valuation specialist.

The goodwill is largely attributable to expected growth, intellectual capital and the assembled workforce of the ETD business.  Intangible assets are recorded at estimated fair value, as determined by management based on available information, with assistance from a third party. The fair value attributed to the intangible assets acquired was based on estimates, assumptions and other information compiled by management, and valuations resulting from established valuation techniques.  The value attributed to goodwill and intangible assets is partially non-deductible for income tax purposes. The following table summarizes the fair value of acquired identifiable intangible assets as of the acquisition date (amounts in thousands):

Our consolidated statements of operations include $76.5 million of revenue and $10.7 million of income from operations from ETD for the period from July 7, 2017 to June 30, 2018.

Significant pro forma adjustments incorporated into the pro forma results above include the recognition of additional amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets. The pro forma results for the year ended June 30, 2017 were carved out from the operations of the business when it was owned by its former parent. These carve-out results have been prepared from the historical accounts of its former parent, and include revenues and expenses specifically identified to ETD, and allocations of certain overhead expenses. These pro forma results were based on estimates and assumptions, which we believe are reasonable. They are prepared for comparative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results that would have been realized had the ETD acquisition occurred at the beginning of the period presented and are not necessarily indicative of our consolidated results of operations in future periods.

Acquisition of American Science and Engineering

On September 9, 2016, we acquired by merger 100% ownership of AS&E, a leading provider of detection solutions for advanced cargo, parcel, and personnel inspection. AS&E's operations are included in our Security division. We financed the total cash merger consideration of  $266 million with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving bank line of credit, and also issued restricted stock units ("RSUs") of the Company to replace RSUs previously issued by AS&E. Immediately following the close of the acquisition, we used $69 million of AS&E's existing cash on hand to pay down the revolving bank line of credit. The valuation of the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as a result of this business combination has been finalized.

The goodwill is largely attributable to expected synergies between us and AS&E and the assembled workforce of AS&E.

Intangible assets are recorded at estimated fair value, as determined by management based on available information, which includes a valuation prepared by an independent third party. The fair value attributed to the intangible assets acquired was based on estimates, assumptions and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations that utilized established valuation techniques. The value attributed to goodwill and intangible assets is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Significant pro forma adjustments incorporated into the unaudited pro forma results above include the recognition of additional amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets and additional interest expense related to debt incurred to finance the acquisition. In addition, significant non-recurring adjustments include the elimination and shift to the comparable periods in the prior year of non-recurring acquisition-related expenses and employee termination costs related to the integration of AS&E into the operations of our Security division. Total eliminations for these items during the fiscal year ending 2017 was $13.9 million.

Other Business Acquisitions

In August 2018, we (through our Security division) completed an acquisition of a privately held services company for approximately $0.8 million, plus up to approximately $5 million in contingent consideration, which may be earned over a five-year period. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand. The goodwill recognized for this business is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

In July 2018, we (through our Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division) acquired an optoelectronics solutions business for $17.5 million, plus up to $1 million in potential contingent consideration, which may be earned over an 18-month period. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving bank line of credit. The goodwill recognized for this business is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

In January 2018, we (through our Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division) acquired an electronics component designer and manufacturer for approximately $22 million, plus up to $6 million in potential earnout consideration. In aggregate, $12.6 million was attributed to intangible assets, $14.0 million was attributed to goodwill, and $3.3 million was attributed to net assets acquired. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving bank line of credit.
