Acquisitions
On February 15, 2017, Bonnell Aluminum acquired 100% of the stock of Futura Industries Corporation (“Futura”) on a net debt-free basis for approximately $92 million (the “Initial Purchase Price”). The amount actually funded in cash at the transaction date was approximately $87.0 million (the “Initial Cash Funding”), which was the Initial Purchase Price net of preliminary closing adjustments for working capital and seller transaction-related obligations assumed and subsequently paid by Bonnell Aluminum. The acquisition, which was funded using Tredegar’s existing revolving credit facility, will be treated as an asset purchase for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Futura, headquartered in Clearfield, Utah, with a national sales presence and particular strength in the western U.S., designs and manufactures a wide range of extruded aluminum products, including branded flooring trims and TSLOTSTM, as well as OEM (original equipment manufacturer) components for truck grills, solar panels, fitness equipment and other applications. As a result of this transaction, Futura is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the William L. Bonnell Company, Inc. (which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tredegar) and operates as a division of Bonnell Aluminum, and its results of operations are included in Tredegar’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Under the terms of the transaction, $5 million of the Initial Cash Funding was placed in escrow (the “Earnout Escrow”) and will be returned to Bonnell Aluminum if Futura does not achieve a targeted EBITDA level (as defined) for the last eleven months of the fiscal year ending December 2017. At the acquisition date, the Company performed a probability weighted assessment in order to determine the fair value of this contingent asset. The assessment estimated a fair value of $4.25 million, which would be returned to Bonnell Aluminum in early 2018, and accordingly, a receivable of $4.25 million was recognized by Bonnell Aluminum. The net purchase price for financial reporting purposes at the acquisition date was set at approximately $82.8 million (the “Initial Net Purchase Price”), which was the Initial Cash Funding less the receivable recognized.

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 allocation of the Initial Net Purchase Price is as follows:

      Initial Net Purchase Price

Goodwill

10,299



The goodwill and other intangible asset balances associated with this acquisition will be deductible for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over a period of approximately 15 years. For financial reporting purposes, customer relationships are being amortized over 12 years and trade names are being amortized over 13 years. Goodwill is not subject to amortization for financial reporting purposes. Customer relationships were valued using the excess earnings approach. Trade names were valued using a relief from royalty approach. The Company does not anticipate marketing Futura’s products under a different brand in light of its strong name recognition and competitive advantage in its target markets.

The final net purchase price continues to be subject to certain post-closing adjustments. If information becomes available that indicates 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 by a cumulative adjustment to the financial statements.

For the quarter ended March 31 2017, Tredegar’s consolidated results of operations and its Aluminum Extrusions business segment included for the 40-day fiscal period Futura was owned, Futura sales of $8.3 million and operating profit from ongoing operations of $0.9 million. Depreciation and amortization and capital expenditures for Futura for this same period were $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

The following unaudited supplemental pro forma data presents Tredegar’s consolidated sales, net income and related earnings per share as if the acquisition of Futura had been consummated at the beginning of 2017 and 2016, and is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s financial performance if the acquisition had actually been consummated as of those dates, or of future performance. The supplemental unaudited pro forma measures for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are presented below:

Futura’s pre-acquisition results for the period from January 1 to February 14, 2017, and therefore the pro forma information for 2017 presented above, were adversely impacted by significant disruptions to manufacturing operations and sales caused by the renovation of its anodizing line. The actual accretion to Tredegar’s diluted earnings per share from Futura for the 40-day fiscal period since the acquisition date was one cent per share.

The Company’s pro forma net income was computed for the periods shown as: (i) the Company’s reported net income, plus (ii) Futura’s historical pre-acquisition period earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and excluding one-time purchase accounting and transaction-related expenses, minus (iii) the pro forma pre-acquisition period depreciation and amortization for Futura under purchase accounting for the Company, minus (iv) the pro forma pre-acquisition period interest expense for the Company applied at an annual rate of 3.0% to the $87.0 million Initial Cash Funding, minus (v) the pro forma pre-acquisition period income taxes applied at a rate of 39.1% to the pro forma pre-acquisition earnings before income taxes computed from items (ii) through (iv).
