DeltaTek Oil Tools Limited On February 8, 2023 (“DeltaTek Closing Date”), DeltaTek Oil Tools Limited, a limited liability company registered in the United Kingdom, and its subsidiary (“DeltaTek”), was acquired (“the DeltaTek Acquisition”) by our wholly owned subsidiary Exploration and Production Services (Holdings) Limited, a limited liability company registered in the United Kingdom (“EPSH”). DeltaTek has developed a number of innovative technologies and solutions and their range of low-risk open water cementing solutions increases clients’ operational efficiency, delivers rig time and cost savings, and improves the quality of cementing operations of clients. The fair value of consideration for the DeltaTek Acquisition was $18.4 million, including final cash consideration paid of $9.9 million and contingent consideration which is estimated to be $8.5 million. The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Company to pay the former owners of DeltaTek a percentage of future revenues generated specifically from the acquired technology over a period of seven years. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement of $8.5 million was estimated by applying the income approach and is reflected in “Other liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets. That measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, referred to as Level 3 inputs in accordance with ASC 820. To the extent our estimates and assumptions changed during the measurement period and such changes were based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the DeltaTek Closing Date, an adjustment to the contingent consideration liability was recorded with an offsetting adjustment to goodwill. To the extent our estimates and assumptions change based on facts and circumstances subsequent to the DeltaTek Closing Date or after the measurement period, an adjustment to the contingent consideration liability would be recorded with an offsetting adjustment to earnings during the applicable period. The DeltaTek Acquisition is accounted for as a business combination and Expro has been identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result, the Company has in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, applied the acquisition method of accounting to account for DeltaTek’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Applying the acquisition method of accounting includes recording the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values and recording goodwill for the excess of the consideration transferred over the net aggregate fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The following table sets forth the allocation of the DeltaTek Acquisition consideration exchanged to the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the DeltaTek Closing Date, with the recording of goodwill for the excess of the consideration transferred over the net aggregate fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
|  | Initial allocation of the consideration |  |  | Measurement period adjustments |  |  | Allocation of consideration as of December 31, 2023 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 1,464 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 1,464 |
Accounts receivables, net |  |  | 723 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 723 |

Total liabilities |  |  | 3,776 |  |  |  | 52 |  |  |  | 3,828 |
Fair value of net assets acquired |  | $ | 17,483 |  |  | $ | 944 |  |  | $ | 18,427 |
The preliminary valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including other liabilities, in the DeltaTek Acquisition initially resulted in a goodwill of $7.2 million. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company finalized the valuation and recorded measurement period adjustments to its preliminary estimates due to additional information received primarily related to a customary purchase price adjustment. The measurement period adjustments resulted in an increase in goodwill of $1.0 million, for final total goodwill associated with the Acquisition of $8.2 million. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets were prepared using an income valuation approach, which requires a forecast of expected future cash flows either using the relief-from royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method, which are discounted to approximate their current value. The estimated useful lives are based on management’s historical experience and expectations as to the duration of time that benefits from these assets are expected to be realized. The intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated 5 to 15 years life. We expect annual amortization to be approximately $1.0 million associated with these intangible assets. An associated deferred tax liability has been recorded in regards to these intangible assets. Refer to Note 14 “Intangible assets”, net for additional information regarding the various acquired intangible assets. The goodwill consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from the technology providing more efficient services and expected future developments resulting from the assembled workforce. The goodwill is not subject to amortization but will be evaluated at least annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. Goodwill recorded in the Acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has determined the estimated unaudited pro forma information to be insignificant for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, assuming the DeltaTek Acquisition were to have been completed as of January 1, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the DeltaTek Acquisition been completed on either date indicated or of future operating results. PRT Offshore On October 2, 2023 (“PRT Closing Date”), Professional Rental Tools, LLC (“PRT” or “PRT Offshore”), was acquired (the “PRT Acquisition”) from PRT Partners, LLC by our wholly owned subsidiary, EPSH. The acquisition will enable Expro to expand its portfolio of cost-effective, technology-enabled services and solutions within the subsea well access sector in the North and Latin America region and accelerate the growth of PRT Offshore’s surface equipment offering in the Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia Pacific regions. We estimated the fair value of consideration for the PRT Acquisition to be $91.0 million, including cash consideration of $21.7 million, net of cash received, equity consideration of $40.9 million, and contingent consideration of $13.2 million, subject to a true-up for customary working capital adjustments. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has accrued $1.5 million of the cash consideration related to standard holdback provisions, which is expected to be paid in 2024. The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Company to pay the former owners of PRT additional consideration based on PRT Offshore’s financial performance during the four quarters following closing. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement of $13.2 million was estimated by applying the income approach and is reflected in “Other current liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets. That measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, referred to as Level 3 inputs in accordance with ASC 820. To the extent our estimates and assumptions change during the measurement period and such changes are based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the PRT Closing Date, an adjustment to the contingent consideration liability would be recorded with an offsetting adjustment to goodwill. To the extent our estimates and assumptions change based on facts and circumstances subsequent to the PRT Closing Date or after the measurement period, an adjustment to the contingent consideration liability would be recorded with an offsetting adjustment to earnings during the applicable period. The PRT Acquisition is accounted for as a business combination and Expro has been identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result, the Company has in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, applied the acquisition method of accounting to account for PRT’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The following table sets forth the preliminary allocation of the PRT Acquisition consideration exchanged to the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the PRT Closing Date, with the recording of goodwill for the excess of the consideration transferred over the net aggregate fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
|  | Amount |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 15,086 |
Accounts receivables, net |  |  | 15,195 |
Other current assets |  |  | 986 |
Property, plant and equipment |  |  | 52,278 |
Goodwill |  |  | 18,556 |
Intangible assets |  |  | 33,940 |
Operating lease right-of-use assets |  |  | 1,242 |
Total assets |  |  | 137,283 |
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities |  |  | 8,621 |
Operating lease liabilities |  |  | 505 |
Other current liabilities |  |  | 1,811 |
Non-current operating lease liabilities |  |  | 678 |
Long-term borrowings |  |  | 34,701 |
Total liabilities |  |  | 46,316 |
Fair value of net assets acquired |  | $ | 90,967 |
Due to the recency of the PRT Acquisition, these amounts, including the estimated fair values, are based on preliminary calculations and subject to change as our fair value estimates and assumptions are finalized during the measurement period. The final fair value determination could result in material adjustments to the values presented in the preliminary purchase price allocation table above. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets were prepared using an income valuation approach, which requires a forecast of expected future cash flows either using the relief-from royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method, which are discounted to approximate their current value. The estimated useful lives are based on management’s historical experience and expectations as to the duration of time that benefits from these assets are expected to be realized. The cost approach was used to determine the fair value of property, plant and equipment. The intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated 5 to 15 years life. We expect annual amortization to be approximately $3.3 million associated with these intangible assets. An associated deferred tax liability has been recorded in regards to these intangible assets. Refer to Note 14 “Intangible assets”, net for additional information regarding the various acquired intangible assets. The goodwill consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from the acquired customer relationships and contracts. The goodwill is not subject to amortization but will be evaluated at least annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. The Company’s operating results for the period October 3, 2023 through December 31, 2023 include $14.7 million of revenue and $4.6 million of net income attributable to PRT. The Company has determined the estimated unaudited pro forma information to be immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, assuming the PRT Acquisition were to have been completed as of January 1, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the PRT Acquisition been completed on either date indicated or of future operating results. Coretrax On February 12, 2024, Expro announced that it had agreed to acquire Scotland-based Coretrax, a technology leader in performance drilling tools and wellbore cleanup, well integrity and production optimization solutions. The Headline Price (as defined in the agreement) is $210.0 million subject to customary purchase price adjustment. The consideration to be paid at closing includes at least $75.0 million in cash and up to 6.8 million newly issued shares of the Company's common stock. The cash component of the consideration to be paid may be increased at the Company's election, and the notional value of any equity consideration will be unitized based on our thirty trading day volume weighted average price prior to closing, which is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2024.
