Product and Business Acquisitions

21. Product and Business Acquisitions The Company did not complete any acquisitions during the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020. However, the Company made a payment in the amount of $10,000 in June 2021 for the acquisition of a product line. The Company obtained control over the product line on July 1, 2021 and the acquisition will be accounted for as an asset acquisition in Q3 2021. The $10,000 is included in other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed two acquisitions in exchange for a total cash consideration at closing of $19,342, which was net of cash acquired of $1,970, and contingent consideration of $1,052, and the settlement of a net asset adjustment of $623. In addition, the Company assumed liabilities of $11,616 and recognized a bargain purchase gain in the amount of $4,536. The total asset value of $37,169 was preliminarily allocated as follows: product rights $8,577, trade names $351, distribution agreements $3,584, customer relationships $386, goodwill $4,618, working capital and fixed assets $19,653. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an adjustment to reduce the bargain purchase gain by the amount of $121 with a corresponding adjustment to working capital. Further, the Company recorded the following adjustments included in the preliminary allocation during the six months ended June 30, 2021: decrease in contingent consideration $955, increase in product registrations and product rights $1,932, increase in distribution agreements $3,584, decrease in trade name and trademarks $843, decrease in customer relationships and customer lists $246, decrease in goodwill $4,054, and an increase in income tax liabilities $1,328.

The purchase price allocation for both acquisitions is preliminary with respect to the valuation of contingent consideration, intangibles, property, plant and equipment, income taxes and certain other working capital items, as the Company is still in the process of gathering additional information and the determination of the respective fair values.

On October 2, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding stock of the Agrinos Group Companies (Agrinos), except for Agrinos AS. Agrinos has operating entities in the U.S., Mexico, India, Brazil, China, Ukraine, and Spain. Agrinos is a fully integrated biological input supplier with proprietary technology, internal manufacturing, and global distribution capabilities. At closing, the Company paid cash consideration of $3,125, which was net of cash acquired of $1,813, and liabilities assumed of $4,963, including liabilities of $595 related to income tax matters. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and resulted in a preliminary bargain purchase gain of $4,536 (including a reduction of $121 recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021). The total asset value of $12,624 has been preliminarily allocated as follows: working capital $7,370 (including trade receivables of $2,262), property, plant and equipment of $5,004, and intangible assets of $250. Agrinos was acquired out of bankruptcy. This provided the Company with an opportunity to acquire Agrinos at an advantageous purchase price which was below the preliminary fair value of Agrinos’ net assets acquired resulting in the above-mentioned bargain purchase gain.

On October 8, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding stock of AgNova Technologies Pty Ltd (“AgNova”). AgNova is an Australian entity that sources, develops, and distributes specialty crop protection and production solutions for agricultural and horticultural producers, and for selected non-crop users. At closing, the Company paid cash consideration of $16,217, which was net of cash acquired of $157, contingent consideration dependent on certain financial results of $1,052, the settlement of a net asset adjustment of $623, and liabilities assumed of $6,653, including liabilities of $3,857 related to income tax matters. The fair value of the contingent consideration of $1,052 was estimated using a Monte Carlo Simulation. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and the total asset value of $24,545 has been preliminarily allocated as follows: product registrations and product rights $8,327, distribution agreements $3,584, trade names and trademarks $351, customer relationships and customer lists $386, goodwill $4,618, which is non-deductible for tax purposes, working capital $7,206, including trade receivables of $1,508, and equipment $73. The preliminary allocation includes the following adjustments recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021, that were made based on a preliminary valuation report: decrease in contingent consideration $955, increase in product registrations and product rights $1,932, increase in distribution agreements $3,584, decrease in trade name and trademarks $843, decrease in customer relationships and customer lists $246, decrease in goodwill $4,054, and an increase in income tax liabilities $1,328.
