BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value and goodwill is recognized for any difference between the price of the acquisition and fair value. We recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at the fair value as of that date. Acquisition related costs are recognized separately from the acquisition and are expensed as incurred. We customarily estimate related transaction costs known at closing. To the extent that information not available to us at the closing date subsequently becomes available during the measurement period, we may adjust goodwill, intangible assets, assets or liabilities associated with the acquisition.

On March 22, 2023, we acquired a business consisting of three funeral homes, two cemeteries and one cremation focused business in the Bakersfield, California area for $44.0 million in cash. We acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain operating liabilities of this business.

The pro forma impact of this acquisition on prior periods is not presented, as the impact is not significant to our reported results. The results of the acquired business are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition.

The measurement period to determine the fair values of acquired identifiable assets and assumed liabilities will end at the earlier of 12 months from the date of the acquisition or as soon as we receive the information we are seeking about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Subsequent to our initial purchase price allocation for this acquisition made during the first quarter of 2023, we have adjusted our purchase price allocation based on additional information which became available prior to June 30, 2023. Provisional estimates for cemetery property have been recorded for the acquisition as our valuation has not been finalized at June 30, 2023.

The following table summarizes the breakdown of the purchase price allocation for our 2023 acquisition (in thousands):


	Initial Purchase Price Allocation		Adjustments		Adjusted Purchase Price Allocation
Current assets	$	7,087	$	131	$	7,218
