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 acquisition method.

Fiscal 2019 On August 1, 2018, the Company acquired all of the stock of Clarus Labs, Inc., a manufacturer of water testing products. Neogen has distributed Clarus’ Colitag water test to the food and beverage industries since 2004; this acquisition has given the Company the ability to sell this product to new markets. Consideration for the purchase was $4,204,000 in cash and $1,256,000 of contingent consideration, due semiannually for the first five years, based on an excess net sales formula. The final purchase price allocation, based upon the fair value of these assets and liabilities determined using the income approach, included inventory of $32,000, machinery and equipment of $120,000, accounts payable of $53,000, contingent consideration accrual of $1,256,000, non-current deferred tax liability of $544,000, non-amortizable intangible assets of $878,000, intangible assets of $1,487,000 (with an estimated life of 5-15 years) and the remainder to goodwill (non-deductible for tax purposes).
