ACQUISITIONS | 2. ACQUISITIONS ​ Burklund Distributors, Inc. ​ On April 5, 2024, the Company acquired substantially all of the net operating assets of Burklund, a wholesale distributor to convenience stores operating in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana and Iowa, for approximately $20.9 million, consisting of $15.4 million in cash, a $3.9 million promissory note payable in quarterly installments over five years at an annual rate of 5.75%, and additional contingent consideration with an acquisition date fair value of $1.6 million. Pursuant to the transaction, contingent consideration of up to $3.0 million in cash could be payable in two installments on the one-year and two-year anniversaries of the acquisition date based on certain sales thresholds. The short-term and long-term portions of the contingent consideration are recorded in accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are re-measured to fair value at each reporting period. The periodic change in fair value is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, the Company also assumed certain operating liabilities totaling approximately $0.3 million. The cash portion of the transaction was funded with borrowings from the Company’s existing bank group. Costs to effectuate the acquisition were not significant and were expensed as incurred. The acquisition of Burklund aligns with the Company’s long-term growth strategy by expanding its regional footprint and will provide customers with an enhanced range of products and services over time. ​ Richmond Master Distributors, Inc. ​ On June 21, 2024, the Company acquired substantially all of the net operating assets of Richmond Master, a wholesale distributor to convenience stores operating in Illinois, Indiana and Michigan, for approximately $6.6 million in cash. In connection with the transaction, the Company assumed certain operating liabilities totaling approximately $0.6 million, including approximately $0.5 million of operating leases. The transaction was funded with borrowings from the Company’s existing bank group. Costs to effectuate the acquisition were not significant and were expensed as incurred. The acquisition of Richmond Master provides access to new markets and improved service capability for accounts in our existing service area. ​ For the two transactions described above, the Company paid consideration in the forms of cash, debt and contingent consideration for the net acquired assets and their related values as of the respective acquisition dates, measured in accordance with ASC 805. In valuing any potential identifiable intangible assets, the Company estimated the fair value using a discounted cash flows methodology with the assistance of an independent valuation advisor. Inputs and projections used to measure the fair value as of the acquisition dates included, but were not limited to, sales growth, gross profit estimates, economic and industry conditions, working capital requirements and various other operational considerations. As a result of the valuation process, no value was assigned to any identifiable intangible assets and no value was assigned to goodwill in either transaction. Burklund and Richmond Master will both be reported as part of the Company’s Wholesale Segment. ​ The consideration paid for each transaction is as follows: ​

In connection with the transaction, the Company also assumed certain operating liabilities totaling approximately $1.2 million, including approximately $0.2 million of operating leases. The transaction was funded with borrowings from the Company’s existing bank group. Costs to effectuate the acquisition were not significant and were expensed as incurred. Strategically, the acquisition expands the Company’s footprint in the North Central portion of the United States and enhances the product and service offerings available to its customer base. ​ The Company paid cash consideration for the net acquired assets and their related values as of the acquisition date, measured in accordance with FASB ASC 805. In valuing identifiable intangible assets, the Company has estimated the fair value using the discounted cash flows methodology with the assistance of an independent valuation advisor. Inputs and projections used to measure the fair value as of the acquisition date included, but were not limited to, sales growth, gross profit estimates, royalty and customer retention rates, economic and industry conditions, working capital requirements and various other operational considerations.

​ Accounts receivable were recorded at their fair value representing the amount we expect to collect, which also approximated the gross contractual values of such receivables at the acquisition date. Goodwill totaling approximately $0.5 million arose from the acquisition and primarily represents synergies and economies of scale generated through reductions in selling, general, and administrative expenses. This goodwill has been assigned to the Company’s Wholesale Segment and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. ​ Other intangible assets acquired consisted of the following: ​
