ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS Acquisition of Voltyre-Prom On October 4, 2013, Titan in partnership with One Equity Partners (OEP) and the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) closed the acquisition of an 85% interest in Voltyre-Prom, a leading producer of agricultural and industrial tires in Volgograd, Russia, for approximately $94.1 million, which includes the assumption of debt. Titan is acting as operating partner with responsibility for Voltyre-Prom's daily operations on behalf of the consortium of which Titan holds a 30% interest. This acquisition expands Titan's footprint into the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region. The fair value of the consideration transferred and noncontrolling interests exceeded the fair value of the identified assets acquired less liabilities assumed. Therefore, goodwill of $21.0 million was recorded on the transaction, which is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. An initial noncontrolling interest of $14.5 million, representing the 15% not owned by the partnership, was r ecorded at the acquisition date. In January 2014, the partnership of Titan, OEP, and RDIF purchased an additional 14% to bring the total Voltyre-Prom ownership to 99%. The Company continues to evaluate the preliminary purchase price allocation, primarily the value of certain deferred taxes and goodwill, and may revise the purchase price allocation in future periods as these estimates are finalized. The purchase price allocation of the Voltyre-Prom acquisition consisted of the following (in thousands):
Cash | $ | 80 |
Accounts receivable | 5,596 |
Inventories | 3,807 |
Deferred income taxes - current asset | 253 |
Prepaid & other current assets | 1,881 |
Goodwill | 21,002 |
Property, plant & equipment | 79,255 |
Other assets | 17,615 |

Acquisition of Titan Europe Plc. On October 31, 2012, Titan acquired over 97% of the outstanding stock of Titan Europe Plc (Titan Europe) and in December 2012, the remaining 3% interest was acquired. Titan Europe is an international engineering group which designs and manufactures wheels, undercarriage components and assemblies for tracked and wheeled "off-road vehicles". The Titan Europe acquisition allowed the Company to expand its global presence and expand its product line. Prior to the acquisition, Titan held a 21.8% ownership percentage in Titan Europe. Titan Europe shareholders received one share of new Titan common stock for every 11 Titan Europe shares held. A total of 6,257,051 new shares of Titan were issued with a value of $121.8 million. In addition, Titan paid cash of $5.6 million for option payouts and partial shares. Titan's previous investment in Titan Europe had a fair value on the acquisition date of $31.7 million based on Titan Europe's stock price on the AIM market in London. Total consideration including the value of stock issued, cash payments, and the fair value of previously held Titan Europe shares totaled $159.1 million. A gain of $26.7 million was recorded on Titan's previously held interest in Titan Europe which was recorded as Noncash Titan Europe Plc gain in the consolidated statement of operations. This gain was previously recorded in other comprehensive income. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. Inventory was valued using the comparative sales method. Real and personal property was valued at fair value. The purchase price allocation of the Titan Europe acquisition consisted of the following (in thousands):
Cash | $ | 39,122 |
Accounts receivable | 128,585 |

The purchase price allocation has changed from that reported in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Titan Europe's wheel manufacturing facility in Finale Emilia, Italy experienced damage from an earthquake in May 2012, prior to Titan's acquisition of Titan Europe. The plant was closed for production during initial remedial work. This resulted in a limited transfer of production to other facilities within Titan Europe as well as sourcing product from facilities in the U.S. owned by Titan and competitors. In the second quarter of 2013, Titan received a final insurance settlement payment of $38.7 million. As a result of this information, Titan has recorded an earthquake insurance receivable of $17.0 million, decreased the current deferred income taxes by $5.3 million, and recorded a bargain purchase gain of $11.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Acquisition of Goodyear's Latin American Farm Tire Business On April 1, 2011, Titan closed on the acquisition of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's (Goodyear) Latin American farm tire business for approximately $98.6 million U.S. dollars. The transaction includes Goodyear's Sao Paulo, Brazil manufacturing plant, property, equipment; inventories; a licensing agreement that allows Titan to sell Goodyear-brand farm tires in Latin America until 2018; and extends the North American licensing agreement until 2018. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. Inventory was valued using the comparative sales method. Real and personal property was valued at fair value. The excess of the purchase price over the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was reflected as goodwill. The goodwill was allocated to the agricultural segment and is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The purchase price allocation of the Latin American farm tire business consisted of the following (in thousands):
Cash | $ | 1,018 |
Inventories | 14,562 |
Deferred income taxes - current asset | 2,948 |
Prepaid & other current assets | 4,929 |
Property, plant & equipment | 108,905 |
Goodwill | 14,484 |
Other assets | 39,263 |
Other current liabilities | (21,127 | )
Deferred income taxes - noncurrent liability | (25,521 | )
Other noncurrent liabilities | (40,823 | )
Net assets acquired | $ | 98,638 |
The purchase price allocation has changed from that reported in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. In the first quarter of 2012, after filing the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, Titan became aware of information related to the classification of the Latin American business for U.S. tax purposes. In the second quarter of 2012, Titan became aware of additional information related to this acquisition. As a result of this information, which was available at the time of acquisition, Titan concluded that there were errors in the original accounting for the acquisition. Titan has concluded that the impact of these errors is immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, and therefore the correction of these errors were recorded as of January 1, 2012. The correction of these errors impacted the following areas: an increase in current deferred income tax asset of $2.9 million, a decrease in goodwill of $8.4 million, and a decrease in noncurrent deferred income tax liability of $5.5 million. As a result of currency exchange rate differences, the January 1, 2012 recorded decrease in goodwill was $7.3 million, with a $1.1 million offset in currency translation adjustment. Pro forma financial information The following unaudited pro forma financial information gives effect to the acquisition of Titan Europe Plc and Goodyear's Latin American farm tire business as if the acquisitions had taken place on January 1, 2011. The pro forma financial information for Titan Europe Plc was derived from the historical accounting records of Titan Europe. The Titan Europe results were adjusted for US GAAP differences and to reflect additional depreciation. The pro forma financial information for the Sao Paulo, Brazil manufacturing facility was derived from The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's historical accounting records. These amounts have been calculated by adjusting the historical results of the Sao Paulo, Brazil facility to reflect the additional depreciation and the amortization of the prepaid royalty discount and supply agreement liability assuming the fair value adjustments had taken place. Pro forma financial information is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):
| 2012 | 2011
Net sales | $ | 2,423,724 |  | $ | 2,295,791 |
Net income | 86,906 |  | 92,278 |
Net income attributable to Titan | 88,499 |  | 92,294 |
Basic earnings per share | $ | 1.78 |  | $ | 1.93 |
Diluted earnings per share | 1.53 |  | 1.63 |
The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2011, nor is it necessarily indicative of Titan's future consolidated results of operations or financial position. No pro forma information is presented for 2013 as both acquisitions were included in the consolidated results for the full year.
