The Consolidated Statements of Income reflect the results of operations for business acquisitions since the respective dates of purchase. All are accounted for using the purchase method. Goodwill recognized in the acquisitions discussed below relates primarily to enhancing the Company’s strategic platform for the expansion of available product offerings. On June 21, 2011, the Company acquired the assets of VeroMara seafood testing laboratory for approximately $813,000 in cash and a potential contingent consideration payment of approximately $200,000 from its parent company, GlycoMar Ltd. Formerly based in Oban, Scotland, VeroMara offered commercial testing for the shellfish and salmon aquaculture industries, including tests for shellfish toxins, general foodborne pathogens, including E. coli, noroviruses, and salmon husbandry. The acquisition has been integrated into the Company’s Food Safety segment at its Ayr, Scotland location. On May 1, 2012, the Company purchased the assets of the Igenity animal genomics business from Merial Limited. Consideration for the purchase was $3,200,000 in cash and included allocations of net current assets of $110,000, property and equipment of $340,000, $600,000 accrued for contingent consideration, intangible assets of $2,036,000 and the remainder to goodwill (deductible for tax purposes). During 2012, the Company paid $500,000 for data sets included in the contingent consideration. The allocation was generally based on the fair value of these assets determined using the income approach. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 fair value measurements. In the past, GeneSeek Inc. (acquired by the Company in 2010) conducted the genetic testing of samples for Igenity, and Igenity used the information with its extensive bioinformatics system to identify the animal’s positive or negative traits. The Igenity business was moved to GeneSeek’s operations in Lincoln, Nebraska, and operates as part of Neogen’s GeneSeek subsidiary, within the Animal Safety segment. In May 2013, the Company reversed the remaining $100,000 of the contingent consideration accrual to Other Income, as the business did not attain the revenue level stipulated for that year. On October 1, 2012, the Company acquired all of the stock of Macleod Pharmaceuticals Inc., of Fort Collins, Colorado. Macleod is the manufacturer of Uniprim, a leading veterinary antibiotic. The product is widely distributed throughout the U.S., and is also available in Canada through an exclusive distribution agreement. Consideration for the purchase was $9,918,000 in net cash and $100,000 accrued for contingent consideration. The final purchase price allocation, based upon the fair value of these assets determined using the income approach, included accounts receivable of $353,000, inventory of $1,238,000, property and equipment of $300,000, current liabilities of $82,000, deferred tax liabilities of $2,054,000, contingent consideration payment liabilities of $100,000, intangible assets of $5,542,000 and the remainder to goodwill (non-deductible for tax purposes). These values are Level 3 fair value measurements. Macleod operates as a subsidiary of Neogen Corporation, reporting within the Animal Safety segment. In October 2013, the Company paid $62,000 for contingent consideration; the remaining $38,000 of the accrual was reversed to Other Income. On January 2, 2013, the Company acquired the assets of Scidera Genomics LLC, an animal genomics business based in Davis, California. The company, formerly operated as MetaMorphix, Inc., or MMI Genomics, performs parentage testing and trait analysis primarily for the cattle and canine industries. Consideration for the purchase was $3,400,000 in cash. The final purchase price allocation included current assets of $35,000, property and equipment of $246,000, intangible assets of $1,570,000 and the remainder to goodwill (deductible for tax purposes). These values are Level 3 fair value measurements. This business was relocated to the Company’s GeneSeek operation in Lincoln, Nebraska in 2013, and reports within the Animal Safety segment. On July 1, 2013, the Company acquired the assets of SyrVet Inc., a veterinary business based in Waukee, Iowa. SyrVet offered a product line similar to Neogen’s Ideal Instruments line of veterinary instruments with a strong presence in Mexico and Latin America. Consideration for the purchase was $10,012,000 in cash and up to $1,500,000 of a contingent consideration liability, due at the end of the first year, based on an excess net sales formula. The Company has estimated the contingent consideration liability to be $930,000, based on forecasted sales. The final purchase price allocation, based upon the fair value of these assets determined using the income approach, included accounts receivable of $747,000, net inventory of $2,195,000, property and equipment of $556,000, current liabilities of $226,000, contingent consideration liabilities of $930,000, non-amortizable trademarks of $790,000, intangible assets of $4,810,000 (with an estimated life of 15 years) and the remainder to goodwill (deductible for tax purposes). These values are Level 3 fair value measurements. This business has been relocated to Lexington, Kentucky and integrated with the Company’s current operations there, reporting within the Animal Safety segment. On November 1, 2013, the Company acquired the assets of Prima Tech Incorporated, a veterinary instrument company based in Kenansville, North Carolina. Prima Tech manufactures devices used by farmers, ranchers, and veterinarians to inject animals, provide topical applications, and to use for oral administration. Prima Tech is also a supplier of products used in artificial insemination in the swine industry. Consideration for the purchase was $12,068,000 in cash and up to $600,000 of contingent consideration, due at the end of the first year, based on an excess net sales formula. The Company has estimated the contingent consideration liability to be $146,000 based on forecasted sales.
