| Note 3. | Acquisition
On November 16, 2015, the Company infused cash of $1,780 thousand into Liqxtal in exchange for 64 percent of the outstanding common shares of Liqxtal. Acquisition costs, which are charged to expense as incurred, were insignificant. The results of Liqxtal’s operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since that date. The amounts of Liqxtal’s revenues and losses included in the consolidated statements of income from the acquisition date to the period ended December 31, 2015 were nil and $30 thousand, respectively. Liqxtal mainly develops the technology on Liquid Crystal Lens (“LC Lens”). As a result of the acquisition, the Company is expected to further strengthen the Company’s competitiveness in the head-mounted displays with the addition of technology resources. The following table summarizes the amounts of estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition.
|  | At November 16, 2015 |
|  | (in thousands) |
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed: |  |  |  |

Current assets, other than cash |  |  | 57 |
Intangible assets |  |  | 732 |
Current liabilities |  |  | (5) |

Total identifiable net assets acquired |  |  | 2,781 |
Noncontrolling interests |  |  | (1,001) |

The fair value of acquired intangible assets and noncontrolling interests were determined based on management’s estimates. The intangible assets were core and developed technology and will be amortized based on a weighted-average useful life of 7 years. The following unaudited pro forma results of operations for the years end December 31, 2014 and 2015 are presented as if the acquisition had been consummated on January 1, 2014, (dollars in thousands except per share amounts):
|  | For the years ended |

|  | 2014 |  | 2015 |
Net revenues |  | $ | 840,542 |  |  | 691,789 |
Net income attributable to Himax Technologies, Inc. stockholders |  | $ | 66,517 |  |  | 25,128 |
Basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share attributable to Himax Technologies, Inc. stockholders |  | $ | 0.19 |  |  | 0.07 |
The above unaudited pro forma information does not reflect any incremental direct costs, including any restructuring charges to be recorded in connection with the acquisition, or any potential cost savings that may result from the consolidation of certain operations of the Company or Liqxtal.
