Note 16 —      Acquisitions
 
All of the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
 
2014
On October 22, 2014, the Company acquired substantially all the business and assets of Cue & Case Sales, Inc., a leader in specialty billiard accessories. The total purchase price of $10.4 million was paid in cash. The more significant assets acquired comprised of customer lists ($4,060), inventory ($3,260), goodwill ($1,633), tradenames ($987) and receivables ($372). 
 
2013
In November 2013, the Company acquired substantially all of the business and assets of DMI Sports, Inc. relating to DMI’s indoor games and accessories such as darts, table tennis, game tables, and billiards. Escalade believes these assets, including the acquired brands and trade names, will complement Escalade’s existing product lines in this category. Escalade did not acquire the outdoor games business conducted by DMI Sports, which business was retained by DMI Sports. The total price of $6.1 million was paid in cash. The more significant assets acquired comprised of inventory ($2,705), goodwill ($1,095), patented technology ($706), customer lists ($569), non-compete ($300) and trademarks ($210).
 
These acquisitions were not and would not have been material to the Company’s net sales, results of operations or total assets during the years ended December 27, 2014, December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. Accordingly, our consolidated results from operations do not differ materially from historical performance as a result of these acquisitions, and therefore, pro-forma results are not presented.
