Business Combinations | 8. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS The consolidated statements of income (loss) 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 September 17, 2021, the Company acquired all of the stock of CAPInnoVet, Inc., a companion animal health business that provides pet medications to the veterinary market. This acquisition provides entry into the retail parasiticide market and enhances the Company’s presence in companion animal markets. Consideration for the purchase was net cash of $17.9 million paid at closing, including $150,000 of cash placed in escrow payable to the former owners in 12 months. There is also the potential for performance milestone payments to the former owners of up to $6.5 million and the Company could incur up to $14.5 million in future royalty payments.

On July 1, 2022, Neogen acquired all of the stock of Thai-Neo Biotech Co., Ltd., a longstanding distributor of Neogen’s food safety products to Thailand and Southeast Asia.

The business continues to operate in Bangkok, Thailand, reporting within the Food Safety segment. For each completed acquisition listed above, the revenues and net income were not considered material and were therefore not disclosed. 3M Food Safety transaction On September 1, 2022, Neogen, 3M Company (“3M”), and Garden SpinCo Corporation (“Garden SpinCo”), a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of 3M created to carve out 3M’s Food Safety Division (“3M FSD”, “FSD”), closed on the transaction combining 3M’s FSD with Neogen in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction and Garden SpinCo became a wholly owned subsidiary of Neogen (“FSD transaction”). Following the FSD transaction, pre-merger Garden SpinCo stockholders own, in the aggregate, approxim ately 50.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of Neogen common stock and pre-merger Neogen shareholders own, in the aggregate, approximately 49.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Neogen common stock. This transaction is a business combination and will be accounted for using the acquisition method. The acquired business is a leading provider of food safety testing solutions. It offers a broad range of food safety testing products that support multiple industries within food and beverage, helping producers to prevent and protect consumers from foodborne illnesses. The business has a broad global presence with products used in more than 60 countries and a diversified revenue base of more than 100,000 end-user customers. The combination of Neogen and the 3M FSD creates a leading innovator with an enhanced geographic footprint, innovative product offerings, digitization capabilities, and financial flexibility to capitalize on robust growth trends in sustainability, food safety, and supply chain integrity. The acquired Food Safety business continues to primarily operate in facilities in Minnesota and the United Kingdom, and is being managed overall in Michigan, reporting within the Food Safety segment. The purchase price consideration for the 3M FSD was $3.2 billion, net of customary purchase price adjustments and transaction costs, which consisted of 108,269,946 shares of Neogen common stock issued on closing with a fair value of $2.3 billion and cash consideration of $1 billion, funded by the additional financing secured by the Company. See Note 10 – Long Term Debt for further detail on the debt incurred. As of November 30, 2022, the Company has recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on initial fair value estimates and is subject to continuing management analysis, with assistance from third party valuation advisors. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets of $ 1.96 billion was recorded as goodwill, of which $1.90 billion is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill includes value associated with profits earned from market and expansion capabilities, expected synergies from integration and streamlining operational activities, the expertise and reputation of the assembled workforce and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. These values are Level 3 fair value measurements. The preliminary fair values of net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired were based on preliminary valuations, and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The final determination may result in asset and liability fair values and tax bases that differ from the preliminary estimates and require changes to the preliminary amounts recognized. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition:
