4. | Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions On May 31, 2011, we acquired Water Star, Inc. (“Water Star”), a Newbury, Ohio firm specializing in electrochemistry for $4,456. The total purchase price of $4,456 was comprised of $2,956 paid at closing and two $750 installment payments which were paid in cash on the first and second anniversary dates of the acquisition. The first installment payment was made on May 31, 2012 and the second and final installment payment was made on May 31, 2013. These installment payments were not contingent on any future services or other financial targets. This acquisition is consistent with our strategy to expand our intellectual property in support of our long-term vision to deliver sustainable, breakthrough innovations. The components of the purchase price of the business combination described above have been allocated as follows:
Current Assets | $ | 426 |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net | 167 |
Identified Intangible Asset | 3,800 |
Goodwill | 472 |
Total Assets Acquired | 4,865 |
Current Liabilities | 409 |
Total Liabilities Assumed | 409 |
Net Assets Acquired | $ | 4,456 |
Divestitures On July 31, 2012, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with M&F Management and Financing GmbH (“M&F”) for the sale of ownership of our subsidiary, Tennant CEE GmbH, and our minority interest in a joint venture, OOO Tennant. In exchange for the ownership of these entities, we received €815, or $1,014 as of the date of sale, in cash and financed the remaining purchase price of €6,166. A total of €2,126 will be received in equal quarterly payments during 2013, of which €532, or $720, remains as of September 30, 2013 and the remaining €3,225 will be received in equal installments on the first, second and third anniversary dates of the divestiture of which €2,150, or $2,909, remains as of September 30, 2013. As a result of this divestiture, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $784 during the third quarter of 2012 in our Profit from Operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The first three quarterly and the first anniversary payments were received as of September 30, 2013. M&F is now a master distributor of Tennant products in the Central Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa markets. In addition, as further discussed in Note 16, at the time of the transaction, M&F was a related party of ours. We have identified M&F as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and have performed a qualitative assessment that considered M&F's purpose and design, our involvement and the risks and benefits and determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of this VIE. The only financing we have provided to M&F was related to the SPA as noted above and there are no arrangements that would require us to provide significant financial support in the future. The assets and liabilities transferred under the SPA on the date of sale were as follows:
Accounts Receivable | $ | 4,398 |
Inventory | 4,271 |
Other Current Assets | 87 |
Current Assets | 8,756 |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net | 170 |
Total Assets Divested | 8,926 |
Current Liabilities | 1,121 |
Total Liabilities Divested | 1,121 |
Net Assets Divested | $ | 7,805 |
