Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions Precision Fuel Components, LLC On February 1, 2023, our Aviation segment acquired Precision Fuel Components, LLC ("Precision Fuel") for a purchase price of $11.7 million. Precision Fuel operating results are included in our Aviation segment beginning on the acquisition date. The acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred $0.2 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the acquisition of Precision Fuel, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Desser Aerospace On July 3, 2023, we completed the acquisition of Desser Holding Company LLC ("Desser Aerospace"), a global aftermarket solutions provider of specialty distribution and MRO services. We purchased Desser Aerospace for a preliminary cash consideration of $133.7 million, which included $9.5 million as an estimated net working capital adjustment (subject to post-closing adjustments). Concurrent with the closing of the transaction, we immediately sold, in a separate transaction, Desser Aerospace’s propriety solutions businesses to Loar Group Inc. (“Loar”) for a cash consideration of $31.8 million, which included $1.8 million as an estimated net working capital adjustment (the “Loar Sale”). The purchase price for Desser Aerospace was allocated on a preliminary basis, among assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, at fair value based on the best available information on the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. The fair values of the non-financial assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, were determined based on preliminary estimates, assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations utilizing established industry valuation techniques. We have not yet finalized the determination of the fair values allocated to various assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, working capital and income taxes. Therefore, the allocation of the total consideration for the acquisition to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, is preliminary until we obtain final information regarding their fair values, which could potentially result in changes to the Desser Aerospace opening balance sheet. During the first quarter of 2024, we adjusted the purchase price allocation as a result of certain measurement period adjustments to acquired assets and liabilities assumed due to updated valuation reports received from our external valuation specialist. The measurement period adjustment resulted in a decrease in deferred tax liabilities of $0.7 million with a corresponding decrease in goodwill of $0.7 million. The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):
Receivables |  | $ | 7,383 |
Inventories |  | 31,112 |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets |  | 515 |
Property and equipment |  | 2,527 |
Intangibles - customer related |  | 21,950 |
Goodwill |  | 55,012 |
Operating lease right-of-use-assets |  | 6,680 |
Total assets acquired |  | 125,179 |
Accounts payable |  | (10,128) |
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities |  | (5,793) |
Long-term operating lease obligations |  | (5,937) |
Deferred tax liabilities |  | (3,638) |
Total liabilities assumed |  | (25,496) |
Net assets acquired, excluding cash |  | $ | 99,683 |
Cash consideration, net of cash acquired |  | $ | 101,870 |
Estimated post-close adjustment |  | (2,187) |
Total |  | $ | 99,683 |
Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Desser Aerospace reflects the strategic advantage of expanding our specialty distribution and MRO services to new customers. The value attributed to goodwill and customer relationships is not fully deductible for income tax purposes. The estimated value attributed to the customer relationship intangible assets is being amortized on a straight-line basis using a weighted average useful life of 8.5 years. The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations for Desser Aerospace and VSE Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are as follows (in thousands):
|  |  | For the three months ended March 31,
|  |  |  |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Revenue |  |  |  |  | $ | 241,539 |  |  | $ | 212,500 |
Income from continuing operations |  |  |  |  | $ | 12,100 |  |  | $ | 9,353 |
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented above has been prepared from historical financial statements that have been adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Desser Aerospace as though it had occurred on January 1, 2023 and includes adjustments for intangible asset amortization; interest expense and debt issuance costs on long-term debt; acquisition and other transaction costs; and certain costs allocated from the former parent. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to reflect the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, nor is it indicative of future operating results. Honeywell Fuel Control Systems On September 27, 2023, our Aviation segment entered into an Asset Purchase and License Agreement with Honeywell International Inc., for a purchase price of $105.0 million, to exclusively manufacture, sell, market, distribute, and repair certain Honeywell fuel control systems (the "Honeywell FCS Acquisition"). The purchase price of this acquisition was funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. This agreement expands existing distribution and MRO capabilities supporting certain Honeywell’s fuel control systems and associated subcomponents. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price for the acquisition was allocated on a preliminary basis, among assets acquired, at fair value based on the best available information on the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. The fair values of the non-financial assets acquired were determined based on preliminary estimates, assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations utilizing established industry valuation techniques. We have not yet finalized the purchase price allocation related to this acquisition due to the fact that while legal control has occurred, we have not received physical possession of the prepaid inventory and property and equipment, and thus these assets will be subject to settlement adjustments upon transfer as outlined in the Asset Purchase and License Agreement with Honeywell. Therefore, the allocation of the total consideration for the acquisition is preliminary until we obtain final information regarding their fair values, which could potentially result in changes in the fair values and an adjustment to goodwill. There were no changes in the preliminary purchase price allocation for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The adjusted preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):
Other current assets (a) |  | $ | 12,000 |
Property and equipment |  | 2,714 |
Intangible assets |  | 16,200 |
Goodwill |  | 74,086 |
Total assets acquired |  | $ | 105,000 |
Cash consideration |  | $ | 105,000 |
Total consideration |  | $ | 105,000 |
(a) Represents prepaid inventory consisting of finished goods acquired but not in our physical possession as of the acquisition date.
The pro-forma impact of the acquisition is not material to the Company’s results of operations.
