Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions The Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the results of the acquired businesses are included in its condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Historically, acquisitions have been made at prices above the fair value of identifiable net assets, resulting in goodwill. Acquisition costs were $940,000 in the second quarter of 2024 and $2,064,000 in the first six months of 2024 and are included in selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of income. The Company expects several synergies in connection with the acquisitions described below, including expansion of product sales into new markets by leveraging its global sales network and relationships, broadening its product portfolio, and strengthening its position in each segment's markets. The Company funded the acquisitions primarily through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Key Knife, Inc. On January 1, 2024, the Company acquired Key Knife Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, Key Knife) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated December 22, 2023, for $153,386,000, net of cash acquired. The Company paid $156,925,000 at closing and $2,372,000 as a post-closing adjustment in the second quarter of 2024. Key Knife is a global supplier of engineered knife systems for custom chipping, planing, and flaking solutions for wood products industries, with revenue of approximately $65,000,000 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023, and is part of the Company's Industrial Processing segment. Goodwill from the Key Knife acquisition was $37,037,000, of which $30,002,000 is expected to be deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. In addition, separately identifiable intangible assets acquired were $91,620,000, of which $77,300,000 is expected to be deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. As part of the acquisition, the Company acquired a 45% interest in two of Key Knife's subsidiaries, increasing its noncontrolling interest liability by $9,319,000 based on the income valuation approach. Under a put and purchase option as outlined in the securities purchase agreement, the seller can demand the Company purchase, or the Company can demand that the seller sell to the Company, the remaining interest in these subsidiaries at any time after December 31, 2027. The purchase price would be based on a total enterprise value as defined in the original purchase agreement. See Other Acquisitions below for additional information. KWS Manufacturing Company, Ltd. On January 24, 2024, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity securities of KWS Manufacturing Company, Ltd. (KWS) for $81,247,000, subject to a post-closing adjustment. The Company paid $81,009,000 at closing and assumed a $238,000 overdraft. KWS is a leading manufacturer of conveying equipment for the bulk material handling industry, with revenue of approximately $45,000,000 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023, and is part of the Company's Material Handling segment. Goodwill from the KWS acquisition was $38,717,000 and separately identifiable intangibles assets were $28,500,000, both of which are expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Dynamic Sealing Technologies LLC On May 31, 2024, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity securities of Dynamic Sealing Technologies LLC and affiliates (collectively, DSTI) for $53,661,000, net of cash acquired and subject to a post-closing adjustment. DSTI is a leading manufacturer of engineered fluid sealing and transfer solutions for rotating applications, with revenue of approximately $25,000,000 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2024, and is part of the Company's Flow Control segment.

In addition, separately identifiable intangible assets acquired were $23,490,000, all of which are expected to be deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Other Acquisitions On May 2, 2024, the Company acquired a service business in Germany, which is included in the Company's Material Handling segment, for $3,281,000, net of cash acquired and subject to a post-closing adjustment.

The final purchase accounting and purchase price allocations remain subject to change as the Company continues to refine its preliminary valuation of certain acquired assets and liabilities assumed and the valuation of acquired intangibles, which may result in adjustments to the assets and liabilities, including goodwill. Measurement period adjustments were not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations in the second quarter of 2024. The weighted-average amortization period for the definite-lived intangible assets related to the 2024 acquisitions is 17 years, including weighted-average amortization periods of 18 years for customer relationships, 12 years for product technology, and 20 years for tradenames. Revenue and operating income for the three- and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 associated with the 2024 acquisitions from their respective acquisition dates, are as follows:
|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended
|  | June 29, 2024 |  | June 29, 2024
(In thousands) |  |

Operating Income, including acquisition-related costs (a) |  | $ | 1,439 |  |  | $ | 1,124 |
(a) Acquisition-related costs include acquired profit in inventory and backlog amortization expense and acquisition costs.

The historical consolidated pro forma financial information of the Company, Key Knife, KWS, and DSTI above has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are (i) directly attributable to the acquisition and related financing arrangements, (ii) expected to have a continuing impact on the Company, and (iii) factually supportable. Pro forma results include the following non-recurring pro forma adjustments: •Pre-tax charge to cost of revenue of $998,000 in the three months ended July 1, 2023 and $3,564,000 in the six months ended July 1, 2023 and reversal of $529,000 in the three months ended June 29, 2024 and $2,860,000 in the six months ended June 29, 2024 for the sale of inventory revalued at the date of acquisition. •Pre-tax charge to SG&A expenses of $973,000 in the three months ended July 1, 2023 and $2,025,000 in the six months ended July 1, 2023 and reversal of $569,000 in the three months ended June 29, 2024 and $1,211,000 in the six months ended June 29, 2024 for intangible asset amortization related to acquired backlog. •Pre-tax charge to SG&A expenses of $2,064,000 in the six months ended July 1, 2023 and reversal of $940,000 in the three months ended June 29, 2024 and $2,064,000 in the six months ended June 29, 2024 for acquisition costs. •Estimated tax effects related to the pro forma adjustments. These pro forma results of operations have been prepared for comparative purposes only, and they do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that would have resulted had the acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of 2023, or that may result in the future. The Company's pro forma results of operations exclude its other acquisitions in 2024 as the inclusion of its results would not have been materially different from the pro forma results presented above.
