Mergers and Acquisitions | 4. Mergers and Acquisitions On March 28, 2012, we obtained 100% of the voting equity interests of VE Newco, LLC (“Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment”), a subsidiary comprised of the former Vivendi Entertainment division of Universal Music Group Distribution, Corp. (“UMG”), pursuant to a Purchase Agreement dated March 6, 2012, as amended, between UMG and one of our subsidiaries. Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment, with its exclusive distribution rights agreements with large independent studios/content providers, distributes entertainment content through home video, digital and television distribution channels. The provisional total consideration transferred was $32.1 million and was comprised of $13.4 million in cash and a $18.7 million non-interest bearing, 90 day promissory note (“Note”) representing the carrying value of Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment’s working capital. Under the terms of the Note and other related Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment acquisition agreements, UMG collected the pre-closing accounts receivable of Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment for a 90 day period following the closing date of the acquisition and applied those collections to the Note, with any excess remitted to Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment. By mid-June 2012, UMG had collected enough funds from Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment’s pre-closing accounts receivable to fully satisfy the Note. The consideration excluded $1.7 million of expenses that were reported as acquisition-related costs in our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2012. The acquisition also effectively settled a preexisting media distribution relationship between Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment and us, resulting in the elimination upon consolidation of certain accounts receivable, participations payable and inventory balances. We acquired Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment, with its distribution rights to over 3,000 media titles, to materially strengthen our existing media distribution services platform, enhance our digital relationships and elevate us to the third largest non-theatrical content distributor in the United States. With the combined scale of Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment’s and our existing distribution operations, we expect to realize significant operational and financial synergies, including reduced third-party distribution costs and lower post-production and digital distribution costs, which are projected to increase our gross margins. These anticipated strategic benefits are the primary contributors to goodwill resulting from the acquisition. The estimated purchase price and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional and are based on currently available information. We believe that information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the consideration transferred and the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but we are waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those amounts. Therefore, the provisional purchase price and measurements of fair value reflected below are subject to change. We expect to finalize the purchase price and determine valuations and complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date. Any goodwill identified is attributable to our business segment and is deductible for tax purposes. The following table summarizes the provisional estimated purchase price and fair values of Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment’s acquired net assets, which are additions to our business segment’s net assets.

At March 28, 2012, with regards to the acquired accounts receivable, the gross contractual amount receivable was $44.0 million, the estimated fair value was $25.1 million, and the best estimate of the contractual cash flows not expected to be collected was $18.9 million due to estimated sales returns. The acquired other intangibles are comprised entirely of customer relationships, the fair values of which were determined using traditional discounted future cash flow models. The useful lives assigned to these intangibles are 5 years, with each year’s amortization expense based on its estimated proportionate amount of the estimated total discounted future cash flows for these intangibles. We included Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment’s results of operations in our consolidated financial statements from March 28, 2012. Consequentially, $19.9 million net revenue and $3.6 million of net income attributable to Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment are included in our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2012. The following tables contain supplemental unaudited pro forma information for the Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment acquisition as if we had acquired this business on January 1, 2011. RSOL was not deconsolidated until December 31, 2011 and, thus, the 2011 supplemental unaudited pro forma information below reflects RSOL on a as if deconsolidated effective January 1, 2011 basis in the first table and on a consolidated basis for 2011 in the second table. The pro forma net losses were decreased by $2.2 million and $2.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, to reflect the removal of amortization related to Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment’s pre-acquisition intangibles, less amortization related to intangibles resulting from our acquisition of Gaiam Vivendi Entertainment. The pro forma adjustments were based on available information and upon assumptions that we believe were reasonable in order to reflect, on a supplemental pro forma basis, the impact of this acquisition on our historical financial information.

In 2010, we increased our ownership interest in an existing equity investment in an Australian catalog and wholesale business and, as a result, recognized a gain, representing the investment’s estimated fair value immediately before acquiring control, of $1.0 million, which was reported in interest and other income on our consolidated condensed statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. We used a combination of the income and market approaches to estimate the fair value of this equity investment immediately before increasing our ownership interest. For the income approach, we used historical unaudited financial statements, projected financial information and other records and documents. Multiples of selected publicly-traded companies were used to develop multiples for the market approach. We include results from operations of acquired companies in our consolidated financial statements from their respective effective acquisition dates.
