The acquisition was funded primarily through additional borrowings under the Company’s credit facility. The financial results of certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries, including HBA Group, are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements on a two-month delayed basis.

The customer relationships are amortized over an estimated life of 9 years. Goodwill is attributable to the synergies of the work force in place and business resources as a result of the combination of the companies.
