Business combinations

Well Chemical Services Acquisition

On September 30, 2019, the Company acquired a well chemical services business (“WCS”), for $10.0 million, funded with cash on hand (the “WCS Acquisition”). WCS provides advanced water treatment solutions, specialized stimulation flow assurance and integrity additives and post-treatment monitoring service in the U.S. This acquisition expanded the Company’s service offerings in oilfield water treatment across the full life-cycle of water, from pre-fracturing treatment through reuse and recycling.

The WCS Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. When determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management made significant estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions and valuation of the inventory and property and equipment acquired, customer relationships, and current liabilities were finalized as of December 31, 2019. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the Company’s Oilfield Chemicals segment. The following

table summarizes the consideration transferred and the estimated fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:


Purchase price allocation		Amount
Consideration transferred		(in thousands)

Pro Well Acquisition

On November 20, 2018, the Company acquired Pro Well Testing and Wireline, Inc. (“Pro Well”) with an initial payment of $12.4 million, funded with cash on hand (the “Pro Well Acquisition”). During March 2019, upon final settlement, the purchase price was revised to $11.8 million.

This acquisition expanded the Company’s flowback footprint into New Mexico and added new strategic customers. The Pro Well Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. When determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management made significant estimates, judgments and assumptions. Management estimated that total consideration paid exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired by $1.1 million, with the excess recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized was primarily attributable to expanding the Company’s flowback footprint into New Mexico and adding new strategic customers. The assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the results of operations of the acquired business are included in the Company’s Water Services segment. The goodwill acquired is deductible for tax purposes. The following table summarizes the consideration transferred and the estimated fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:


Purchase price allocation		Amount
Consideration transferred		(in thousands)
Cash paid		$	11,754
Total consideration transferred			11,754
Less: identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed
Working capital			1,051
Property and equipment			6,588
Customer relationship intangible assets			3,000
Total identifiable net assets acquired			10,639
Goodwill			1,115
Fair value allocated to net assets acquired		$	11,754

During the first quarter of 2020, Select impaired 100% of its goodwill, including the goodwill resulting from the Pro Well acquisition (See Note 4 – Impairments and Other Costs and Note 9 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets).
