Acquisitions [Abstract] |
Acquisitions | 02. Acquisitions On September 22, 2011, we acquired approximately 70% of the shares and voting rights of Proservia SA (“Proservia”), a provider of information technology and systems engineering solutions in France. We acquired the remaining shares and voting rights by the end of November 2011. The purchase price was €14.89 per share. The total consideration, net of cash acquired, was €21.6 ($29.4) . Goodwill arising from this transaction was €20.7. The related Intangible assets were €11.0 and €10.8 as of September 22, 2011 and December 31, 2011, respectively. On April 5, 2010, we acquired COMSYS IT Partners, Inc. (“COMSYS”) from its existing shareholders. The value of the consideration for each outstanding share of COMSYS common stock was approximately $17.65, for a total enterprise value of $427.0, including debt of $47.1, which we repaid upon closing. The consideration was approximately 50% ManpowerGroup common stock (3.2 million shares with a fair value of $188.5 upon closing) and approximately 50% cash (consideration of $191.4). In addition, we incurred approximately $10.8 of transaction costs associated with the acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2010, which have been classified in Selling and administrative expenses. Goodwill and Intangible assets relating to this transaction were $278.0 and $85.4, respectively, as of December 31, 2011 and $281.6 and $106.3, respectively, as of December 31, 2010. We have finalized our allocation of the consideration transferred to the net assets acquired, using various methodologies to assess the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. For our Intangible assets associated with customer relationships, we utilized the multi-period excess-earnings method, a form of the income approach. Some of the significant assumptions used in this valuation included: expected revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, capital charges representing 1.3% of revenues, and a 13% discount rate. The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of April 5, 2010:
Cash and cash equivalents | $ 0.9
Accounts receivable, net | 207.0
Prepaid expenses and other assets | 2.1
Total current assets | 210.0
Goodwill | 281.6
Intangible assets | 127.1
Other assets | 50.5
Property and equipment | 5.2
Total assets | $ 674.4
Accounts payable | $ 135.9
Employee compensation payable | 40.8
Accrued liabilities | 14.3
Total current liabilities | 191.0
Other long-term liabilities | 56.4
Total liabilities assumed | 247.4
Net assets acquired | $ 427.0
Of the $427.0 of net acquired assets, $127.1 was assigned to customer relationships and will be amortized over 14 years, using an accelerating method. The remaining fair value of $281.6, which was not directly attributable to any specific assets or liabilities, was assigned to Goodwill as part of the U.S. reporting unit. Of the Goodwill assigned, $28.2 is deductible for tax purposes as of December 31, 2011. The following unaudited pro forma information reflects the results of ManpowerGroup’s operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 as if the COMSYS acquisition had been completed at the beginning of the respective period. Pro forma adjustments have been made to illustrate the incremental impact on earnings of amortization expense related to the acquired intangible assets, lost interest income that would have been earned on the cash proceeds used to acquire COMSYS and the tax impact of these respective items.

The unaudited pro forma information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not represent what our Consolidated Statements of Operations would have been if the transaction had actually occurred as of January 1, 2010 or 2009 and does not represent our expected future Consolidated Statements of Operations. From time to time, we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world, including franchises. Excluding Proservia and COMSYS, the total cash consideration paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $19.6, $32.3 and $21.6, respectively. Goodwill and Intangible assets resulting from the remaining 2011 acquisitions were $12.9 and $4.5, respectively, as of December 31, 2011.
