19.    Acquisitions

During the year ended December 31, 2013, CBIZ acquired substantially all of the assets of two companies: Associated Insurance Agents (“AIA”), an insurance brokerage agency specializing in property and casualty insurance, located in Minneapolis, Minnesota and Knight Field Fabry LLP (“Knight”), an accounting and financial services company located in Denver, Colorado. The operating results of AIA are reported in the Employee Services practice group and the operating results of Knight are reported in the Financial Services practice group.

Aggregate consideration for these acquisitions is expected to be approximately $10.8 million, which consists of $4.9 million in cash paid at closing, $0.4 million in guaranteed future consideration, and $5.5 million net present value in contingent consideration to be settled in cash, subject to the acquired operations achieving certain performance targets.

The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated as follows (in thousands):

Under the terms of the acquisition agreements, a portion of the purchase price is contingent on future performance of the businesses acquired. The maximum potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that CBIZ could be required to make under the contingent arrangements is $6.1 million. CBIZ is required to record the fair value of this obligation at the acquisition date. CBIZ determined, utilizing a probability weighted income approach, that the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement was $5.5 million, of which $1.2 million was recorded in “Contingent purchase price liability — current” and $4.3 million was recorded in “Contingent purchase price liability — non-current” in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2013.

The goodwill of $9.3 million arising from the acquisitions in 2013 consists largely of expected future earnings and cash flows from the existing management team, as well as the synergies created by the integration of the new businesses within the CBIZ organization, including cross-selling opportunities expected with the Company’s Financial Services group and the Employee Services group, to help strengthen the Company’s existing service offerings and expand the Company’s market position. Goodwill totaling $1.4 million is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, CBIZ purchased three client lists, two of which are reported in the Employee Services practice group and one reported in the Financial Services practice group. Total consideration for these client lists was $0.3 million cash paid at closing and an additional $0.3 million in cash, which is contingent upon future financial performance of the client list.

In addition, CBIZ paid $10.1 million in cash and issued approximately 184,000 shares of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2013 as contingent earnouts for previous acquisitions. During the year ended December 31, 2013, CBIZ also increased the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability related to CBIZ’s prior acquisitions by $1.1 million due to higher than originally projected future results of the acquired businesses. This increase of $1.1 million is included in “Other income, net” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion of contingent purchase price liabilities.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, CBIZ acquired substantially all of the assets of eight companies, Meridian Insurance Group, LLC (“Meridian”), Primarily Care, Inc. (“PCI”) Stoltz and Company, LTD., L.L.P (“Stoltz”), Trinity Risk Advisors, Inc.(“Trinity”), Strategic Employee Benefit Services — The Pruett Group, Inc. (“SEBS-Pruett”), the employee benefit division of Leavitt Pacific Insurance Brokers, Inc. (“Leavitt”), Diversified Industries, Inc. d/b/a Payroll Control Systems (“PCS”) and PHBV Partners, L.L.P. (“PHBV”).

The operating results of Meridian, Primarily Care, Stoltz, Trinity, SEBS-Pruett, Leavitt and PCS are reported in the Employee Services practice group, and the operating results of PHBV are reported in the Financial Services practice group. As a result of these acquisitions, revenue of approximately $25.4 million was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2012.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, CBIZ also acquired substantially all of the assets of ProMedical, Inc. (“ProMedical”), a full-service provider of medical billing and practice management services for hospital-based anesthesiology practices, located in Ocala, Florida. This acquired unit was subsequently sold on August 30, 2013 as part of the sale of the MMP. Accordingly, the disclosures below have been restated to exclude the acquisition of ProMedical. The acquisition of ProMedical resulted in recording a $2.2 million contingent liability, which remains the responsibility of CBIZ.

Aggregate consideration for these acquisitions consisted of approximately $74.2 million in cash, $3.6 million in CBIZ Common Stock, $4.5 million in short-term notes payable, $1.7 million in guaranteed future consideration, and $15.4 million in contingent consideration.

Under the terms of the acquisition agreements, a portion of the purchase price is contingent on future performance of the businesses acquired. The maximum potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that CBIZ could be required to make under the contingent arrangements is $18.5 million. CBIZ is required to record the fair value of this obligation at the acquisition date. CBIZ determined, utilizing a probability weighted income approach, that the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement was $15.4 million, of which $4.6 million was recorded in “Contingent purchase price liability — current” and $10.8 million was recorded in “Contingent purchase price liability — non-current” in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012.

The goodwill of $57.2 million arising from the acquisitions for the year ended December 31, 2012 consists largely of expected future earnings and cash flow from the existing management team, as well as the synergies created by the integration of the new business .within the CBIZ organization, including cross-selling opportunities expected with the Company’s Financial Services group and the Employee Services group, to help strengthen the Company’s existing service offerings and expand the Company’s market position.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, CBIZ also reduced the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability related to CBIZ’s prior acquisitions by $1.1 million due to lower than originally projected future results of the acquired businesses. This reduction of $1.1 million is included in “Other (expense) income, net” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion of contingent purchase price liabilities.

Under the terms of the acquisition agreements, a portion of the purchase price is contingent on future performance of the businesses acquired. The potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that CBIZ could be required to make under the contingent arrangements is between $0 and $15.1 million. CBIZ is required to record the fair value of these obligations at the acquisition date. CBIZ determined, utilizing a probability weighted income approach, that the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangements was $13.4 million, of which $4.1 million was recorded in “Other current liabilities” and $9.3 million was recorded in “Other non-current liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2011.

 

The goodwill of $16.9 million arising from the acquisitions in 2011 consists largely of expected future earnings and cash flow from the existing management team, as well as the synergies created by the integration of the new businesses within the CBIZ organization, including cross-selling opportunities expected with the Company’s Financial Services group and the Employee Services group, to help strengthen the Company’s existing service offerings and expand the Company’s market position. Goodwill totaling $11.8 million is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

CBIZ also purchased one client list in 2011 which is reported in the Employee Services practice group. Consideration for this acquisition consisted of $0.8 million cash paid at closing and up to an additional $0.6 million in cash which is contingent upon future financial performance of the client list.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, CBIZ reduced the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability related to CBIZ’s prior acquisitions by $3.5 million due to lower than originally projected future results of the acquired businesses. This reduction of $3.5 million is included in “Other income, net” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. See Note 6 for further discussion of contingent purchase price liabilities.

In addition, CBIZ paid $16.7 million in cash, issued approximately 38,900 shares of Common Stock, and 251,100 shares of Common Stock became issuable during the year ended December 31, 2011 as contingent proceeds and payments against notes payable for previous acquisitions.

The operating results of all acquired businesses are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the dates of acquisition. Client lists and non-compete agreements are recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, (including client lists and non-compete agreements) is allocated to goodwill.

Additions to goodwill, client lists and other intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and contingent consideration earned during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows (in thousands):

 

     2013      2012  

Goodwill

   $ 9,575       $ 57,688   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Client lists

   $ 3,819       $ 40,165   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Other intangible assets

   $ 182       $ 1,450   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

The additions to goodwill include purchase price adjustments made in 2013 that retrospectively adjusted 2012 goodwill by a total of $1.4 million. These purchase price adjustments resulted from finalizing net working capital arrangements pertaining to two acquisitions made in 2012. The result of these adjustments was a $0.7 million reduction of goodwill for each of the Financial Services and Employee Services operating segments.

As a result of CBIZ’s acquisition activities in 2012, the following table provides unaudited pro forma financial information for CBIZ as if all the acquisitions were acquired on January 1, 2012. The unaudited pro forma financial information includes the effect of financing resulting in interest expense of approximately $2.0 million, amortization expense of $2.6 million resulting from acquired intangible assets, and other adjustments to normalize certain expenses such as benefits, commissions and incentive compensation. The unaudited pro forma results of operations are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operation that would have been obtained had these businesses actually been acquired at January 1, 2012, nor are they intended to be a projection of future results of operations. No pro forma information is presented for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to lack of available data.
