﻿ As of March 31, 2017, based on the preliminary valuations, the company’s customer relationship intangible asset recognized in connection with the Fleischmann’s acquisition is $81.2 million, net of $2.8 million of accumulated amortization, and has a 15-year weighted-average amortization period. As of March 31, 2017, the company also has an indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset of $10.5 million. The company recognized $1.4 million of amortization expense associated with the amortizing customer relationship intangible asset during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and estimated amortization expense for the next five years is $5.6 million per annum. The excess of the purchase price over the intangibles fair values was allocated to goodwill, none of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. ﻿ Acquisition of Abengoa Ethanol Plants ﻿ On September 23, 2016, the company acquired three ethanol plants located in Madison, Illinois, Mount Vernon, Indiana, and York, Nebraska from subsidiaries of Abengoa S.A. for approximately $234.9 million for the ethanol plant assets, and $19.1 million for working capital acquired and liabilities assumed. These ethanol facilities have a combined annual production capacity of approximately 230 mmgy. ﻿ The purchase price allocation is based on the preliminary results of an independent valuation. The purchase price and purchase price allocation are preliminary until contractual post-closing working capital adjustments are finalized and the final independent valuation report is issued.
