The purchase price allocation resulted in the recognition of a gain on bargain purchase of approximately $6,580,000 which is included in other income in the consolidated statement of earnings for the year ended September 24, 2011. The gain on bargain purchase resulted from the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeding the purchase price. Acquisition costs of $546,000 for the handhelds acquisition are included in other general expense in the consolidated statements of earnings for the year ended September 24, 2011. The goodwill and intangible assets acquired in the business combinations are recorded at fair value.
