8. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
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. Goodwill recognized in the acquisitions discussed below relates primarily to enhancing the Company’s strategic platform for the expansion of available product offerings.
On July 31, 2020, the Company acquired the U.S. (including territories) rights to Elanco’s StandGuard
Pour-on
for horn fly and lice control in beef cattle, and related assets. This product line fits in well with Neogen’s existing agricultural insecticide portfolio and organizational capabilities. Consideration for the purchase was $2,351,000 in cash, all paid at closing. The final purchase price allocation, based upon the fair value of these assets determined using the income approach, included inventory of $51,000 and intangible assets of $2,300,000 (with an estimated life of 15 years). This product line is currently being toll manufactured for the Company but is eventually expected to be manufactured at Neogen’s operation in Iowa; the sales are reported within the Animal Safety segment.
On December 30, 2020, the Company acquired all of the stock of Megazyme, Ltd, an Ireland-based company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, U.S.-based Megazyme, Inc. and Ireland-based Megazyme IP. Megazyme is a manufacturer and supplier of diagnostic assay kits and enzymes to measure dietary fiber, complex carbohydrates and enzymes in food and beverages as well as animal feeds. This acquisition will allow Neogen to expand its commercial relationships across food, feed and beverage companies, and provide additional food quality diagnostic products to commercial labs and food science research institutions. Consideration for the purchase was net cash of $39.8 million paid at closing, $8.6 million of cash placed in escrow payable to the former owner in two installments in two and four years, $4.9 million of stock issued at closing, and up to $2.5 million of contingent consideration, payable in two installments over the next year, based upon an excess net sales formula. The preliminary purchase price allocation, based upon the fair value of these assets and liabilities determined using the income approach, included accounts receivable of $1,376,000, inventory of $5,595,000, net property, plant and equipment of $12,599,000, prepayments of $69,000, accounts payable of $4,000, other current liabilities of $1,815,000, contingent consideration accrual of $2,458,000,
non-current
liabilities of $319,000,
non-current
deferred tax liabilities of $3,306,000, intangible assets of $22,945,000 (with an estimated life of
15-20
years) and the remainder to goodwill
(non-deductible
for tax purposes). These values are Level 3 fair value measurements. In February 2021, the former owner was paid $1,229,000 for the first installment of contingent consideration, based upon the achievement of sales targets. The Irish companies continue to operate from their current locations in Bray, Ireland, reporting within the Food Safety segment and are managed through Neogen’s Scotland operation. The U.S. company’s business is managed by our Lansing-based Food Safety team.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on September 17, 2021, the Company acquired the stock of CAPInnoVet, Inc., a companion animal health business that provides pet medications to the veterinary market. Due to the timing of the transaction, the preliminary purchase price allocation was not complete at the time of filing. The business will be operated from our location in Lexington, KY, reporting within the Animal Safety segment.
For each acquisition listed above, the revenues and net income were not considered material and were therefore not disclosed.
