Acquisitions. On December 5, 2013, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of CyberCoders Holdings, Inc. ("CyberCoders"), a provider of permanent placement services headquartered in Irvine, California. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's permanent placement services. The purchase price was $98.6 million, comprised of $93.6 million in cash paid at closing and estimated future contingent consideration of $5.0 million, which is based on estimated financial performance of CyberCoders through 2015 (the maximum contingent consideration opportunity is $11.0 million). Acquisition costs of approximately $1.5 million were expensed in 2013. Goodwill deductible for tax purposes is $10.3 million for this transaction. The results of operations for the acquisition have been combined with those of the Company from the acquisition date.

On December 2, 2013, the Company acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of Whitaker Medical, LLC ("Whitaker"), a provider of physician staffing services headquartered in Houston, Texas. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's Physician staffing services. The purchase price was $21.3 million, comprised of $18.5 million in cash paid at closing and estimated future contingent consideration of $2.8 million, which is based on estimated financial performance of Whitaker through 2015 (the maximum contingent consideration opportunity is $5.0 million). Acquisition costs of approximately $0.4 million were expensed in 2013. Goodwill of $7.2 million is deductible for tax purposes. The results of operations for the acquisition have been combined with those of the Company from the acquisition date.

Assets and liabilities of the acquired companies were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase price over the fair value of net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired has been allocated to goodwill. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets was determined primarily by using a discounted cash flow method.

The Company's allocation of the purchase prices relating to the CyberCoders and Whitaker acquisitions remains incomplete with respect to opening net assets, intangible assets, taxes and contingent consideration. Material measurement period adjustments resulting from the finalization of the purchase price allocation will be recorded retrospectively to the acquisition date. The preliminary fair value of contingent consideration is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired businesses in accordance with the respective purchase agreements. There are numerous inputs for this valuation, which the Company will finalize during the measurement period. Significant changes are likely and will change the contingent consideration and the amount allocated to goodwill. See Note 6 Fair Value Measurements for further information regarding the fair value of contingent consideration and the Level 3 rollforward disclosure.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company adjusted CyberCoders' and Whitaker's purchase price allocation. These adjustments were not material and accordingly they were not presented retrospectively.
