Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions, individually and in aggregate, were not material to our income from continuing operations before income taxes. Aggregate consideration for these acquisitions consisted of approximately $10.5 million in cash, $1.4 million in CBIZ common stock, and $8.5 million in contingent consideration. The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was allocated as follows (in thousands):
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed: |
Accounts receivable, net |  | $ | 1,501 |
Other assets |  |  | 52 |
Identifiable intangible assets |  |  | 7,037 |
Accounts payable |  |  | (62 | )
Accrued liabilities |  |  | (1,552 | )
Total identifiable net assets |  | $ | 6,976 |
Goodwill |  |  | 13,471 |
Aggregate purchase price |  | $ | 20,447 |
| • |  | 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 $8.7 million.
| • |  | CBIZ is required to record the fair value of this obligation at the acquisition date.
| • |  | Utilizing a probability weighted income approach, CBIZ determined that the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement was $8.5 million, of which $2.9 million was recorded in “Contingent purchase price liability — current” and $5.6 million was recorded in “Contingent purchase price liability — non-current” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2015.
| • |  | The goodwill of $13.5 million arising from the acquisitions in 2015 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. All of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes.
Client Lists During the year ended December 31, 2015, CBIZ purchased six client lists, all of which are reported in the Employee Services practice group. Total consideration for these client lists was $2.8 million cash paid at closing and an additional $0.8 million in guaranteed future consideration, and $0.1 million which is contingent upon future financial performance of the client list. Contingent Earnouts for Previous Acquisitions
| • |  | CBIZ paid $12.0 million in cash and issued approximately 0.3 million shares of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2015 as contingent earnouts for previous acquisitions.
Change in Contingent Purchase Price Liability for Previous Acquisitions
| • |  | During the year ended December 31, 2015, CBIZ also decreased the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability related to CBIZ’s prior acquisitions by $2.9 million due to lower than originally projected future results of the acquired businesses. This decrease of $2.9 million is included in “Other income, net” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
