2. ACQUISITIONS OF BUSINESSES

On August 31, 2018, the Company acquired a 70% interest in a four-clinic physical therapy practice.  The purchase price for the 70% interest was $7.2 million in cash and $0.4 million in a seller note that is payable in two principal installments totaling $200,000 each, plus accrued interest, in August 2019 and 2020.

On April 30, 2018, the Company acquired a 65% interest in a business in the industrial injury prevention market.  Previously, a 55% interest in the initial industrial injury prevention business was acquired by the Company in March 2017. The purchase price for the 55% interest was $6.2 million in cash and $0.4 million in a seller note that is payable, principal plus accrued interest, in September 2018.  On April 30, 2018, the Company combined the two businesses.  After the combination, the Company owns a 59.45% interest in the combined business. Services provided include onsite injury prevention and rehabilitation, performance optimization and ergonomic assessments. The majority of these services are contracted with and paid for directly by employers, including a number of Fortune 500 companies. Other clients include large insurers and their contractors. The Company performs these services through Industrial Sports Medicine Professionals, consisting of both physical therapists and highly specialized certified athletic trainers (ATCs).

In addition, during 2018, the Company, through several of its majority owned Clinic Partnerships, acquired five separate clinic practices.  These practices operate as satellites of the existing Clinic Partnership. The aggregate purchase price was $1.0 million inclusive of cash of $850,000 and a note payable of $150,000.  The note accrues interest at 4.5% and is payable, principal and accrued interest, on August 31, 2019.

The results of operations of the acquired clinics have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of their respective acquisition.  The Company intends to continue to pursue additional acquisition opportunities, develop new clinics and open satellite clinics.

The purchase prices plus the fair value of the non-controlling interests for the acquisitions in 2018 were allocated to the fair value of the assets acquired, inclusive of identifiable intangible assets, i.e. trade names, referral relationships and non-compete agreements, and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the acquisition date, with the amount exceeding the fair values being recorded as goodwill. For the acquisitions in 2018, 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 and the liabilities assumed. Thus, the final allocation of the purchase price may differ from the preliminary estimates used at March 31, 2019 based on additional information obtained and completion of the valuation of the identifiable intangible assets. Changes in the estimated valuation of the tangible assets acquired, the completion of the valuation of identifiable intangible assets 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. The Company does not expect the adjustments to be material.

For the acquisitions in 2018, 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 weighted average amortization period was 10.54 years at December 31, 2018.  For non-compete agreements, the weighted average amortization period was 6.00 years at December 31, 2018. The values assigned to tradenames are tested annually for impairment.

For the 2018 acquisitions, total current assets primarily represent accounts receivable. Total non-current assets are fixed assets, primarily equipment, used in the practices.

The consideration paid for each of the acquisitions was derived through arm’s length negotiations. Funding for the cash portions was derived from proceeds from the Company’s revolving credit facility. The results of operations of the acquisitions have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since their respective date of acquisition. Unaudited proforma consolidated financial information for the acquisitions in 2018 acquisitions have not been included as the results, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to current operations.
