(3) ACQUISITIONS

 

On March 15, 2022 we completed the acquisition of the Merchant Acquiring Business of Piraeus Bank ("PBMA"). The acquisition includes 205,000 POS terminals at 170,000 merchants throughout Greece, as well as Piraeus Bank’s online merchant acquiring business and expands our omnichannel payments strategy where we use our proprietary technology to provide cash, card-based acquiring solutions, alternative payment acquiring, online acquiring, tokenized payment services and other payment products. Additionally, the acquisition includes a long-term commercial framework agreement between Piraeus Bank and Euronet which includes collaborative product distribution, processing and customer referrals. 

 

The purchase price was €313.8 million, or approximately $346.2 million, which includes $331 million cash paid at closing plus $15.2 million of estimated contingent consideration for a ten-year earnout contingent on performance targets outlined in the commercial framework agreement. The contingent consideration is related to a percentage of the net fee income received during the ten-year period of the commercial framework agreement and there is no contractual maximum amount of consideration under this agreement.

 

The initial accounting for this acquisition is not complete as of September 30, 2022. The purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including identifiable intangible assets, based on their respective provisional fair values at the date of acquisition. Additional time is needed to refine and review the results of the valuation of assets and liabilities. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the results of operations have been included from the date of acquisition in the EFT Processing Segment.  

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.

Assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred were recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The fair value measurements of intangible assets were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 inputs include discount rates that would be used by a market participant in valuing these assets, projections of revenues and cash flows, and customer attrition rates, among others.    

 

We acquired a customer relationship intangible asset with a preliminary fair value of $112.2 million that is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years and a contract related intangible asset of $10.3 million that is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years.

 

Goodwill, with a preliminary value of $212.2 million, arising from the acquisition was included in the EFT Processing Segment. The factors that make up goodwill include synergies from combining PBMA operations and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. Goodwill and intangible assets associated with this acquisition are deductible for tax purposes.

 

The results of PBMA operations are included in our consolidated results of operation, as part of our EFT Processing business segment, beginning on March 16, 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, PBMA had $32.6 million and $63.8 million in revenue. The PBMA business is impacted by higher transaction volumes during the tourism season in the second and third quarters.
