ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS | 5. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS US Telecom Acquisition of Sacred Wind Enterprises On November 7, 2022, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Alloy acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Sacred Wind Enterprises, Inc. (“Sacred Wind”), Inc., a rural telecommunications provider in New Mexico for $44.6 million of consideration (“Sacred Wind Transaction”). The purchase price allocation was finalized during the year ended December 31, 2023. As part of the Sacred Wind Transaction, the Company transferred consideration of $16.7 million of cash, net of $9.4 million of cash acquired, $14.8 million of redeemable noncontrolling interests, and $3.7 million of contingent consideration. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company received $1.3 million as final settlement of working capital amounts. The Company funded the acquisition with borrowings under its CoBank Credit Facility and assumed $31.6 million of Sacred Wind debt, to the United States of America administered through the Rural Utilities Service. Upon completion of the Sacred Wind Transaction, the former Sacred Wind shareholders will own 6% of the Alloy equity. This equity is classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Company’s financial statements because the holders have an option, beginning in 2026, to put the equity interest to a subsidiary of the Company at the then fair market value. The redeemable noncontrolling interests do not have preference relative to other equity units and participate in gains and losses in Alloy. The contingent consideration is earned based on certain operating metrics of Sacred Wind beginning in 2025 through 2027. During the year ended December 31, 2023, Sacred Wind made substantial progress toward achieving the relevant operating metrics and, as a result, the contingent consideration increased by $4.2 million to $7.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the fair value of the contingent consideration decreased to $7.8 million. Changes in the value of the contingent consideration are included in Loss on Disposition of Assets and Transfers on the Company’s Consolidated Income Statement. The fair value of the contingent consideration was calculated using discounted cash flow analysis based on a range of probability weighted outcomes. ​ The table below represents the purchase price allocation of the total consideration transferred to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on management’s estimate of their acquisition date fair values (amounts in thousands):

​ The acquired fixed assets are comprised of telecommunication equipment located in the Southwest United States. The fixed assets were valued using the income and cost approaches. Cash flows were discounted between 7% and 12% based on the risk associated with the cash flows to determine fair value under the income approach. The fixed assets have useful lives ranging from 1 to 25 years. The intangible assets include a $0.6 million trade name. The estimated fair value of the trade name was determined using the relief from royalty method. The useful life of the trade name is 5 years. The acquired receivables consist of trade receivables incurred in the ordinary course of business. The Company collected the full amount of the receivables. Other liabilities includes $6.5 million of deposits received under government grant programs and will be used to construct fixed assets in future periods. The Company’s statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 includes $3.3 million of revenue and $0.2 million of losses before taxes attributable to the Sacred Wind Transaction. The Company incurred $0.8 million of transaction related charges pertaining to legal, accounting, consulting services, and employee related costs associated with the transaction during the year ended December 31, 2022. ​
