Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block] | 4. ACQUISITION The Performance and Lifestyle Footwear Business of Honeywell International, Inc. On January 24, 2021, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain subsidiaries of Honeywell International Inc. (collectively, "Honeywell"), to purchase Honeywell's performance and lifestyle footwear business, including brand names, trademarks, assets and liabilities associated with Honeywell's performance and lifestyle footwear business (the "Acquisition") for a preliminary purchase price of $230 million. On March 15, 2021 (the "Acquisition Date"), pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, we completed the Acquisition for an aggregate preliminary closing price of approximately $207 million, net of cash acquired, based on preliminary working capital and other adjustments. This is subject to further adjustments based on the final assessment of working capital and other items as of the closing date. The acquisition was funded through cash on hand and borrowings under two new credit facilities. See Note 10 for information regarding the two new credit facilities. The Acquisition expanded our brand portfolio to include The Original Muck Boot Company, XTRATUF, Servus, NEOS and Ranger brands (the "Acquired Brands"). We acquired 100% of the voting interests of certain subsidiaries and additional assets comprising the performance and lifestyle footwear business of Honeywell with the Acquisition. With the acquisition of the Acquired Brands, we will greatly enhance our powerful portfolio of footwear brands and significantly increase our sales and profitability. We acquired a well-run business with a corporate culture and a customer base similar to ours, which provides meaningful growth opportunities within our existing product categories as well as an entry into new market segments. Its innovative and authentic product collections complement our existing offering with minimal overlap, which will allow us to strengthen our wholesale relationships and serve a wider consumer audience. At the same time, we plan to leverage our existing advanced fulfillment capabilities to improve distribution of the Acquired Brands to wholesale customers and accelerate direct-to-consumer penetration. In connection with the Acquisition, we also entered into employment agreements with seven key employees from the performance and lifestyle footwear business of Honeywell, pursuant to which, among other things, we agreed to grant 25,000 non-qualified stock options in the aggregate to the seven employees as an inducement for continuing their employment with us. In connection with the Acquisition, Honeywell will provide certain services to us under the Transition Service Agreement ("TSA"). The costs associated with the TSA are both fixed and variable. We expect these costs to decline over time as we integrate the businesses. The Acquisition contributed net sales of $50.7 million and $57.2 million, respectively, to the unaudited condensed consolidated operating results for the three and the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Acquisition contributed net income of $0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively, to the unaudited condensed consolidated operating results for the three and the six months ended June 30, 2021. Acquisition-related costs Costs incurred to complete and integrate the Acquisition are expensed as incurred and included in "operating expenses" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were approximately $2.3 million and $7.5 million, respectively, of acquisition-related costs recognized. These costs represent investment banking fees, legal and professional fees, transaction fees, integration costs, and consulting fees associated with the Acquisition. Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation The Acquisition has been accounted for under the business combinations accounting guidance. As a result, we have applied acquisition accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The aggregate preliminary closing price noted above was allocated to the major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the Acquisition Date using primarily Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. These Level 2 and Level 3 valuation inputs include an estimate of future cash flows and discount rates. Additionally, estimated fair values are based, in part, upon outside valuation for certain assets, including specifically identified intangible assets. The allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the residual amount allocated to goodwill, is based upon preliminary information and subject to change within the measurement period (up to 165 days from the acquisition date) as additional information concerning final working capital true-up adjustments and valuations related to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is obtained. The following table summarizes the consideration paid for the Acquisition and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition Date, which have been allocated on a preliminary basis and are subject to change based on the final working capital true-up.
($ in thousands) |  | Fair Value |

(1) The recorded amount for accounts receivable considers expected uncollectible amounts of approximately $0.2 million in its determination of fair value. (2) Fair value of finished goods inventories included a preliminary step up value of approximately $3.5 million, of which approximately $2.3 and $2.6 million was expensed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and is included in "Cost of Goods Sold" in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. (3) Goodwill consists largely consists of the acquired workforce, expected cost synergies and economies of scale resulting from the Acquisition. (4) Represents the preliminary amount owed to the seller, Honeywell, based on the preliminary working capital true-up and is included in "Accounts Payable" in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assume that the Acquisition occurred at the beginning of the periods presented. These unaudited pro forma results are presented for information purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what the results of operations would have been if the Acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor are they indicative of the future results of operations. The pro forma results presented below are adjusted for the removal of acquisition-related costs of approximately $2.3 million and $7.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

- Definition Disclosure of accounting policy for completed business combinations (purchase method, acquisition method or combination of entities under common control). This accounting policy may include a general discussion of the purchase method or acquisition method of accounting (including for example, the treatment accorded contingent consideration, the identification of assets and liabilities, the purchase price allocation process, how the fair values of acquired assets and liabilities are determined) and the entity's specific application thereof. An entity that acquires another entity in a leveraged buyout transaction generally discloses the accounting policy followed by the acquiring entity in determining the basis used to value its interest in the acquired entity, and the rationale for that accounting policy. + References Reference 1: http://fasb.org/us-gaap/role/ref/legacyRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 805 -SubTopic 10 -Section 05 -Paragraph 4 -Subparagraph (a)-(d) -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6909625&loc=d3e227-128457 + Details
