2 ACQUISITIONS

     On October 1, 2012, The William L. Bonnell Company, Inc. acquired 100% ownership of AACOA. AACOA operates production facilities in Elkhart, Indiana and Niles, Michigan. Its primary markets include consumer durables, machinery and equipment and transportation. The acquisition will add fabrication capabilities to Aluminum Extrusions' current array of products and services while providing AACOA with large press capabilities and enhanced geographic sales coverage in a variety of end-use markets.

     After certain post-closing adjustments (primarily related to working capital transferred), the purchase price, net of cash acquired, was $54.6 million. The purchase price was funded using financing secured from our existing $350 million revolving credit facility.

     Based upon management's preliminary valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired (net of cash acquired) and liabilities assumed, the preliminary estimated purchase price allocation is as follows:

(In Thousands)      
Accounts receivable $ 12,477  
Inventories   4,708  
Property, plant & equipment   15,116  
Identifiable intangible assets:      
Customer relationships   4,800  
Trade names   4,800  
Proprietary technology   3,400  
Noncompete agreements   1,600  
Other assets (current & noncurrent)   42  
Trade payables & accrued expenses   (6,574 )
Total identifiable net assets   40,369  
Purchase price, net of cash received   54,625  
Goodwill $ 14,256  

 

     The goodwill and other intangible asset balances associated with this acquisition will be deductible for tax purposes. Intangible assets acquired in the purchase of AACOA are being amortized over the following periods:

Identifiable Intangible Asset Useful Life (Yrs)
Customer relationships 10
Proprietary technology 6-10
Trade names Indefinite
Noncompete agreements 2

 

     The final purchase price continues to be subject to certain post-closing contractual adjustments. If information becomes available that would indicate adjustments are required to the purchase price or the purchase price allocation prior to the end of the measurement period for finalizing the purchase price allocation, such adjustments will be included in the purchase price allocation retrospectively.

     On October 14, 2011, TAC Holdings, LLC (the "Buyer") and Tredegar Film Products Corporation, which are indirect and direct, respectively, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Tredegar, entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Gaucho Holdings, B.V. (the "Seller") an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Vision Capital Partners VII LP ("Vision Capital"). On October 24, under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer acquired from the Seller 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Terphane Holdings, LLC ("Terphane").

     Terphane operates manufacturing facilities in Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Brazil and Bloomfield, New York. It is a producer of thin polyester films in Latin America with a growing presence in strategic niches in the U.S. Polyester films have specialized properties, such as heat resistance and barrier protection, that make them uniquely suited for the fast-growing flexible packaging market. We expect that the acquisition of Terphane will allow us to extend our product offerings into adjacent specialty films markets and to expand in Latin America.

     All post-closing adjustments related to the purchase price for Terphane have been resolved in 2012. Adjustments to the purchase price were made retrospectively as if the accounting had been completed on the acquisition date. Upon completing these post-closing adjustments, which were primarily related to working capital transferred, the total purchase price (net of cash acquired) was $182.7 million. The purchase price was funded using available cash (net of cash received) of approximately $57.7 million and financing of $125 million secured from Tredegar's former revolving credit facility.

     Based upon management's valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired (net of cash acquired) and liabilities assumed, the final estimated purchase price allocation is as follows:

(In Thousands)      
Accounts receivable $ 14,321  
Inventories   23,437  
Property, plant & equipment   86,963  
Identifiable intangible assets:      
Customer relationships   32,600  
Proprietary technology   14,700  
Trade names   9,400  
Noncompete agreements   2,300  
Other assets (current & noncurrent)   3,680  
Trade payables   (17,471 )
Other liabilities (current & noncurrent)   (12,216 )
Deferred taxes   (38,167 )
Total identifiable net assets   119,547  
Purchase price, net of cash received   182,761  
Goodwill $ 63,214  

 

     None of the goodwill or other intangible assets will be deductible for tax purposes. Intangible assets acquired in the purchase of Terphane are being amortized over the following periods:

Identifiable Intangible Asset Useful Life (Yrs)
Customer relationships 12
Proprietary technology 10
Trade names Indefinite
Noncompete agreements 2

 

     The financial position and results of operations for AACOA have been consolidated with Tredegar subsequent to October 1, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the consolidated results of operations included sales of $19.9 million and net income from continuing operations of $1.0 million related to AACOA. The financial position and results of operations for Terphane have been consolidated with Tredegar subsequent to October 24, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the consolidated results of operations included sales of $143.3 million and $29.2 million, respectively, and net income from continuing operations of $17.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively, related to Terphane.

     The following unaudited supplemental pro forma data presents our consolidated revenues and earnings as if the acquisitions of Terphane and AACOA had been consummated on January 1, 2011. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of our consolidated revenues and earnings if the acquisition and related borrowing had been consummated on January 1, 2011. Supplemental unaudited pro forma results for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

(In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)   2012   2011
Sales $ 946,594 $ 1,009,601
Income from continuing operations   44,816   43,407
Earnings per share from continuing operations:        
Basic $ 1.40 $ 1.36
Diluted   1.39   1.35

 

The above supplemental unaudited pro forma amounts reflect the application of the following adjustments in order to present the consolidated results as if the acquisitions and related borrowings had occurred on January 1, 2011:
  • Adjustment for additional depreciation and amortization expense associated with the adjustments to property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets associated with purchase accounting;
  • Additional interest expense and financing fees associated with borrowing arrangements used to fund the acquisitions of Terphane and AACOA and the elimination of historical interest expense associated with historical borrowings of Terphane and AACOA that were not assumed by Tredegar;
  • Adjustments to eliminate transactions-related expenses associated with the October 2011 acquisition of Terphane and the October 2012 acquisition of AACOA;
  • Adjustments related to the elimination of foreign currency remeasurement gains associated with long-term borrowings of Terphane that were not assumed by Tredegar;
  • Adjustments for the estimated net income tax benefit associated with the previously described adjustments; and
  • Adjustments to income tax expense for AACOA as it had previously elected to be treated as an S-Corp for federal income tax purposes.

     On February 3, 2010, we purchased the assets of Bright View Technologies Corporation ("Bright View") for $5.5 million. Bright View is a developer and producer of high-value microstructure-based optical films for the LED (light emitting diode) and fluorescent lighting markets. The primary identifiable intangible assets purchased in the transaction were patented and unpatented technology, which are being amortized over a weighted average period of 12 years.
