The preliminary fair value measurement of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities was based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value measurement hierarchy. Level 3 fair market values were determined using a variety of information, including estimated future cash flows and market comparables. The Company is in the process of completing the purchase price allocation and expects to have it finalized within the 12 month measurement period.
