MERGER WITH THE PPG CHEMICALS BUSINESS |
MERGER WITH THE PPG CHEMICALS BUSINESS | 2. MERGER WITH THE PPG CHEMICALS BUSINESS The Merger created a leading integrated chemicals and building products company with a broad portfolio of downstream products, and greater scale and ability to capitalize on globally advantaged, low cost North American natural gas. The results of the Merged Business are included in our financial statements from January 28, 2013, the closing date of the acquisition of the Merged Business. We issued 35.2 million shares of our common stock, assumed $967.0 million of debt and assumed certain other liabilities including pension liabilities and other postretirement obligations as consideration for the Merged Business. The final purchase price is subject to a settlement with PPG related to the final working capital of the Merged Business as of the date of acquisition. In connection with the Transactions, we have paid approximately $53.6 million in fees and expenses, which included: (i) approximately $30.3 million of debt issuance costs, of which approximately $19.3 million was deferred; and (ii) approximately $23.3 million of related professional and legal fees. The initial accounting for the Merged Business (including the allocation of the purchase price to acquired assets and liabilities) is preliminary and subject to change, including the working capital settlement between PPG and the Company, as well as changes in the fair value of working capital and other assets, completion of an appraisal of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and final valuation of intangible assets. Goodwill recognized from the acquisition of the Merged Business is primarily due to the combined companies providing an increase in size and economies of scale, a significant increase in chlorine production flexibility, an increase in natural gas integration and strategic, geographic and product synergies. Approximately $14 million of the goodwill recognized in the Merger is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest in TCI was estimated based on the present value of estimated future cash flows from TCI attributable to our minority partner's ownership percentage of TCI. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, is set forth in the table below and is subject to change during the measurement period of up to twelve months.
