S'well

On March 2, 2022, the Company acquired certain assets of Can't Live Without It, LLC. (dba S'well Bottle and which the Company refers to as “S'well”). The Company paid cash consideration of $18.0 million. The transaction also includes up to $5.0 million in contingent consideration, subject to the acquired brand reaching certain milestones.

The preliminary purchase price was comprised of the following (in thousands):


Cash paid	$	17,956
Value of contingent consideration	650
Total purchase price	$	18,606

The value of contingent consideration represents the present value of estimated contingent payments of $0.7 million, related to the attainment of certain net sales contribution targets for the year 2024. Acquisition related costs of $0.9 million were recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The purchase price was allocated based on the Company’s preliminary estimate of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, as follows (in thousands):


	Purchase Price Allocation
Accounts receivable	$	2,280
Inventory	4,005
Fixed assets	40

Intangible assets	13,000
Goodwill	2,966
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	(3,685)
Total allocated value	$	18,606

The acquisition is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC Topic 805”), which established a new basis of accounting for all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value. ASC Topic 805 allows the acquiring company to adjust preliminary amounts recognized at the acquisition date to their subsequently determined final fair values during a measurement period, generally up to one year from the date of the acquisition. The preliminary estimated fair values that are not yet finalized relate to the valuation of accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, accrued expenses, intangibles, deferred taxes and valuation of the contingent consideration.

The goodwill recognized results from such factors as assembled workforce and the value of other synergies expected from combining operations with the Company. The associated goodwill is deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Goodwill and the trade name intangible asset are included in the U.S. segment. For financial purposes, the trade name intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 12 years (see NOTE 6 — INTANGIBLE ASSETS).

The condensed consolidated statement of operations includes $8.0 million and $12.4 million of net sales attributable to the S'well brand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
