Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] |
Business Acquisitions | Business Acquisitions The Company uses acquisitions as a strategy to grow its customer base by increasing its presence in new and existing markets, expanding and diversifying its service offerings, enhancing its technology, and acquiring skilled personnel. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded $20.7 million and $40.0 million, respectively, of incremental revenue from the businesses acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Net income contributed by these acquisitions was not separately identifiable due to the Company’s integration activities and is impracticable to provide. 2024 Acquisitions The Company completed the following acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, paying the purchase price in cash in each transaction: (a) a purchase of 100% of the equity interest in TDS Gift Cards (“TDS”), acquired on February 5, 2024, a digital gifting and branded payments platform, which is reported within our Digital Media segment; (b) a purchase of 100% of the equity interest in CNET Media, Inc. and certain related entities (“CNET”), acquired on September 12, 2024, a digital media publication platform, which is reported within our Digital Media segment; and (c) one other immaterial Digital Media acquisition. The acquisition of TDS is expected to expand our ability to offer innovative shopping solutions to our merchant partners and broaden our capabilities to help facilitate commerce between consumers and some of the most highly visible brands. The acquisition of CNET is expected to allow us to reach a wider audience that is attractive to advertisers in the technology space. Total consideration for all businesses acquired in 2024 was $358.2 million, or $212.3 million, net of cash acquired. The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase consideration for the acquisition of TDS and CNET as of September 30, 2024 (in thousands):
