Business Combinations [Abstract] |
ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS Acquisition of SeaBear On October 27, 2015, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of SeaBear GmbH (“SeaBear”) and related assets in a purchase transaction with SeaBear’s sole shareholder (the “Seller”). SeaBear, founded and based in Graz, Austria, specializes in the development of underwater instrumentation through unique application of existing, new and emerging technologies. The Company believed that sales of SeaBear’s innovative diving technology could be expanded through the Company’s global marketing and distribution networks. The SeaBear acquisition is included in the Company’s Diving segment. Goodwill of $2,219, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired, is not deductible for tax purposes. During the quarter ended July 1, 2016, the Company re-evaluated its projections for its Diving reporting unit as a result of deteriorating business conditions. As a result, the Company performed an impairment test on the goodwill of the Diving reporting unit, including the goodwill acquired in the SeaBear acquisition, and determined an impairment charge of $6,197 was required thereby reducing the carrying value of goodwill reported in the Diving segment (including the portion attributable to the SeaBear acquisition) to $0. Acquisition of Northport On April 4, 2016, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Northport Systems, Inc. (“Northport”) in a purchase transaction with Northport and its owners (collectively, the “Seller”). Northport, based in Toronto, Canada, specializes in the development and application of unique digital cartography technologies and web, e-commerce and data solutions for fishing and marine markets. The acquisition cost for the Northport assets was funded with existing cash and credit facilities. Approximately $500 of the purchase price was paid into a segregated escrow account which was set aside to fund potential indemnity claims that may be made by the Company against the Seller in connection with the inaccuracy of certain representations and warranties made by the Seller or related to the breach or nonperformance of certain other actions, agreements or conditions related to the acquisition, for a period of 24 months from the acquisition date. The Company cannot estimate the probability or likelihood of bringing such an indemnity claim against the Seller or any related costs at this time. The remaining escrow balance, if any, net of any indemnity claim then pending, will be released to the Seller once the 24 month period has lapsed. Approximately $250 of the purchase price was in the form of contingent consideration which requires the Seller to meet certain conditions prior to the release of such funds. The Company believes that Northport will bring new cartography capabilities, which can broaden the Company’s innovation horizon and accelerate speed-to-market of new products in this segment. The Northport acquisition is included in the Company’s Fishing segment. Goodwill of $827, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired, is deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition reflects the strong cash flow expected from the acquisition due primarily to expected expanded distribution and growth of Humminbird marine electronics and cartography. Purchase Price Allocation Pro forma results of operations for these acquisitions have not been presented because they are not material to the Company’s combined and consolidated results of operations, either individually or in the aggregate. The following table presents the aggregate purchase price allocation for the Company’s acquisitions described above:
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed
Accounts receivable | $ | 66 |
Inventories | 197 |
Other current assets | 40 |
Property, plant and equipment | 27 |
Identifiable intangible assets | 6,706 |
Less, accounts payable and accruals | 350 |
Less, long term liabilities | 580 |
Total identifiable net assets | 6,106 |
Goodwill | 3,046 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 9,152 |
The values assigned in the acquisitions described above to finite lived intangible assets were as follows:
Description | Amount | Useful Life (yrs)
Developed technologies | $ | 6,131 |  | 7.6
Non-compete agreements | 575 |  | 5
Developed technologies were valued using the discounted cash flow method. Under this method, the after-tax direct cash flows expected to be generated by the technologies were discounted over their remaining useful lives, net of contributions of other assets to those cash flows. The discount rates used were commensurate with the inherent risks associated with each type of asset and the level and timing of cash flows appropriately reflect market participant assumptions. We valued base product technology that generates cash flows from sales of the existing products using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method which calculates the value based on the risk-adjusted present value of the cash flows specific to the products, allowing for a reasonable return. Non-compete agreements were valued using the comparative income differential method based on the estimated negative impact that could occur in the absence of the restrictions enforced by the agreements. The weighted average useful life at the dates of acquisition of total amortizable intangible assets acquired was approximately 7.5 years. Transaction costs of $588 were recognized during the nine months ended July 1, 2016.
