On March 7, 2022, the Company, through the EFM JV, acquired 100% of the equity interests of GRC for $19.7 million in cash, which was financed with a combination of a draw on the Company's revolving credit facility and issuance of term debt by the EFM JV (see Note 7). As additional consideration, the former owners were issued 10% of the equity interest in the EFM JV. The preliminary fair value ascribed to the equity interest was approximately $5.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, there were $11.6 million in current assets, $29.8 million in long-lived assets, and $30.9 million in total liabilities related to the EFM JV included in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

GRC engineers and manufactures non-metallic expansion joints and flow control products including rubber expansion joints, ducting expansion joints, and industrial pinch and duck bill valves, serving the industrial water and wastewater markets. The

acquisition diversifies and expands our EFM JV product offerings within our Engineered Systems segment. The following table summarizes the approximate fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of closing.

Goodwill recognized represents value the Company expects to be created by combining the various operations of the acquired businesses with the Company’s operations, including the expansion into markets within existing business segments, access to new customers and potential cost savings and synergies.
