Business Combination
 
On
January 
31,
2020,
the Company completed the acquisition of
100%
of Geneva Pipe Company, Inc. (“Geneva”) for a purchase price of approximately 
$49.4
 million in cash, subject to a post-closing adjustment based on changes in net working capital. Geneva is a concrete pipe and precast concrete products manufacturer based in Utah. This acquisition expanded the Company’s water infrastructure product capabilities by adding additional reinforced concrete pipe capacity and a full line of precast concrete products including storm drains and manholes, catch basins, vaults, and curb inlets as well as innovative lined products that extend the life of concrete pipe and manholes for sewer applications. Operations have continued with Geneva's previous management and workforce at the
three
Utah manufacturing facilities located in Salt Lake City, Orem, and St. George. Consistent with prior periods and considering the chief operating decision maker's evaluation of post-acquisition performance is based on total Company results, the Company will continue to report as
one
segment.

The purchase consideration for this business combination was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase consideration recorded as goodwill. The asset and liability fair value measurements primarily related to inventories, property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, identifiable intangible assets, goodwill, and deferred income taxes, are preliminary and subject to change as additional information is obtained. The purchase price allocation will be finalized as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but
not
later than
one
year following the acquisition date.
 
The following table summarizes the components of the intangible assets acquired and their estimated useful lives:

Goodwill arose from the acquisition of an assembled workforce, expansion of product offerings, and management’s industry know-how. The Company does
not
expect the goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes.
 
The Company incurred transaction costs associated with this acquisition of
$2.5
 million during the
three
months ended
March 
31,
2020.
These transaction costs are included in Selling, general, and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
Geneva operations contributed net sales of
$8.0
 million to the Company’s continuing operations for the period from
January 
31,
2020
to
March 
31,
2020.
It is impracticable to determine the effect on net income as a substantial portion of Geneva has been integrated into the Company’s ongoing operations.
 
The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results of the Company as if the acquisition of Geneva had occurred on
January 
1
of the year prior to the acquisition (in thousands):

This unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data is included only for the purpose of illustration and does
not
necessarily indicate what the operating results would have been if the acquisition had occurred on
January 
1
of the year prior to the acquisition. Moreover, this information is
not
indicative of what the Company’s future operating results will be. The information prior to the acquisition is included based on prior accounting records maintained by Geneva. The pro forma amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Geneva to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property and equipment and intangible assets had been applied on
January 
1
of the year prior to the acquisition. Adjustments also include an increase of interest expense as if the Company’s debt obtained in connection with the acquisition had been outstanding since
January 
1
of the year prior to the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information includes non-recurring adjustments to remove transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition. The provision for income taxes has also been adjusted for all periods, based upon the foregoing adjustments to historical results.
