The consideration for each transaction was agreed upon through arm’s length negotiations. Funding for the cash portion of the purchase price for the 2015 and 2014 acquisitions was derived from proceeds under the Credit Agreement.
 
The results of operations of these acquisitions have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since acquired.
 
For the 2015 acquisition, the purchase price plus the fair value of the non-controlling interest was allocated to the fair value of certain assets acquired (patient accounts receivable, equipment and prepaids and deposits) and liabilities assumed (accounts payable and accrued employee benefits) based on the preliminary estimates of the fair values at the acquisition date, with the amount exceeding the estimated fair values being recorded as goodwill. The Company is in the process of completing its formal valuation analysis to identify and determine the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired (tradename, non-compete agreements and referral relationships) and the liabilities assumed. Thus, the final allocation of the purchase price will differ from the preliminary estimates used based on additional information obtained. Changes in the estimated valuation of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the completion by the Company of the identification of any unrecorded pre-acquisition contingencies, where the liability is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, will likely result in adjustments to goodwill.
 
For the 2014 acquisitions, the purchase prices plus the fair value of the non-controlling interest were allocated to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimates of the fair values at the acquisition date, with the amount exceeding the estimated fair values being recorded as goodwill. The values assigned to the referral relationships and non-compete agreements are being amortized to expense equally over the respective estimated lives.  For referral relationships, the range of the estimated lives was 6 to 16 years, and for non-compete agreements the estimated lives was six years. The values assigned to tradenames and goodwill is tested annually for impairment.
 
Unaudited proforma consolidated financial information for acquisitions occurring in 2015 and 2014 have not been included as the results were not material to current operations.
