Acquisition - Kimball International
On June 1, 2023, the Corporation completed its acquisition of Kimball International, a leading commercial furnishings company with expertise in workplace, health, and hospitality, resulting in Kimball International becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. Immediately following the close of the transaction, Kimball International shareholders owned approximately 10 percent of the combined company. The Corporation incurred acquisition-related expenses of $2.8 million and $37.5 million in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, that are included in "Selling and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Additionally, acquisition-related financing costs of $2.7 million and $0.2 million were recorded to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in "Long-
term debt" and "Other assets", respectively, while $0.3 million of acquisition-related stock issuance costs were recorded to "Additional paid-in capital". The acquired assets and assumed liabilities and results of Kimball International's operations are included in the Corporation's workplace furnishings reportable segment. The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, which is not expected to be tax-deductible, and has not yet been assigned to the new reporting units created. Goodwill is primarily attributed to the assembled workforce of Kimball International and anticipated synergies.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the Corporation acquired all outstanding shares of Kimball International's common stock and holders of Kimball International’s outstanding common stock received $9.00 in cash and 0.1301 shares of the Corporation’s common stock for each share of Kimball International’s common stock. For fair value purposes, shares of the Corporation's common stock were valued at $25.50, the closing market price on May 31, 2023, the day preceding the transaction's close.

The total preliminary fair market value of consideration was approximately $503.7 million, which is allocated as follows:

The valuation analysis requires the use of complex management estimates and assumptions such as property appraisals, future cash flows, discount rates, royalty rates, long-term growth rates, and technology build costs. At this time, assets and liabilities are recorded based on preliminary data and assumptions as the Corporation is in the process of reviewing information related to the determination of the fair values. The provisional assets and liabilities may be adjusted to reflect the finally determined amounts, and those adjustments may be material. The Corporation expects to finalize the purchase price allocation in the first half of 2024. During the current quarter, revisions were made to the purchase price allocation resulting in a net increase to goodwill of $2.3 million, primarily due to provisional valuation adjustments to inventory, personal property, right-of-use operating leases, and deferred tax liabilities. Additionally, the Corporation is currently reviewing technical income tax matters in connection with the acquisition, which may have a material impact on the financial statements as the analysis is completed.
The following table summarizes the results of Kimball International operations since the acquisition date that are included in the Corporation's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023. These amounts include the results of Poppin Furniture, Inc. ("Poppin") for the respective period during which it was owned by the Corporation. Poppin was determined not to require discontinued operations presentation as this entity is not material to the consolidated results of the periods presented.

Acquisition - Dickerson
In June 2022, the Corporation acquired Dickerson Hearth Products ("Dickerson"), an installing fireplace distributor in the Raleigh, North Carolina area, for approximately $8 million. The transaction, which aligns with the Corporation’s vertical integration strategy in the residential building products market, was structured as an asset acquisition and was consummated entirely in cash. The purchase price allocation includes $7.6 million of goodwill. The remaining assets and liabilities acquired were not material to the consolidated financial statements. The purchase accounting was finalized in the second quarter of 2023.

The above acquisitions were accounted for using the acquisition method pursuant to ASC 805, with goodwill being recorded as a result of the purchase price exceeding the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities.

Divestiture - Poppin
On September 12, 2023, the Corporation closed on the sale of substantially all of the assets of Poppin for $3.1 million in cash, net of selling costs; the transaction was structured as an asset sale. Poppin had been acquired as part of the Kimball International transaction in June 2023 and was a component of the workplace furnishings segment. Balances divested include $10.2 million of inventory, $2.9 million of various other assets, $7.1 million of accounts payable and accrued expenses, and $3.0 million of operating lease obligations.

Divestiture - Lamex
In July 2022, the Corporation closed on the sale of its China- and Hong Kong-based Lamex office furniture business ("Lamex"), which was a component of the workplace furnishings segment, to Kokuyo Co., Ltd, a leading manufacturer and provider of office furniture in Japan and across Asia. The transaction was valued at approximately $75 million plus standard post-closing working capital adjustments, net of cash acquired by the buyer. The Corporation recorded a pre-tax gain on sale in the second half of 2022 of $50.4 million that included transaction-related expenses of approximately $6 million as well as a cumulative foreign currency translation benefit of $3.3 million that was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income.
