Acquisitions | Acquisitions Providência Acquisition On January 27, 2014, the Company announced that PGI Polímeros do Brazil, a Brazilian corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("PGI Acquisition Company"), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Providência and certain shareholders named therein. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, PGI Acquisition Company will acquire a 71.25% controlling interest in Providência (the “Providência Acquisition”). Providência is a leading manufacturer of spunmelt nonwoven products primarily used in hygiene applications as well as industrial and healthcare applications. Based in Brazil, Providência has three locations, including one in the United States. The Providência Acquisition was completed on June 11, 2014 (the "Providência Acquisition Date") for an aggregate purchase price of $424.8 million and funded with the proceeds from borrowings under an incremental term loan amendment to the Company's existing Senior Secured Credit Agreement as well as the proceeds from the issuance of $210.0 million of 6.875% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2019. The components of the purchase price are as follows:
In thousands | Consideration
Cash consideration paid to selling stockholders | $ | 188,117 |
Cash consideration deposited into escrow | 8,252 |
Deferred consideration | 47,931 |
Debt repaid | 180,532 |
Total consideration | $ | 424,832 |
Total consideration paid included $47.9 million of deferred purchase price (the "Deferred Consideration"). The Deferred Consideration is denominated in Brazilian Reais (R$) and accretes at a rate of 9.5% per annum compounded daily. Depending on the resolutions of certain existing and potential tax claims (the "Providência Tax Claims"), the Deferred Consideration will be paid to the selling stockholders. If the Company or Providência incur actual tax liability in respect to the Providência Tax Claims, the amount of Deferred Consideration owed to the selling shareholders will be reduced by the amount of such actual tax liability. The Company will be responsible for any actual tax liability in excess of the Deferred Consideration and the cash consideration deposited into escrow. Based on the Company's best estimate, resolution and payment of the existing and potential tax claims is anticipated in 2016 or later. As a result, the Deferred Consideration is classified as a noncurrent liability with accretion recognized within Interest expense. As required by Brazilian law, PGI Acquisition Company filed a mandatory tender offer registration request with the Securities Commission of Brazil (Comissão de Valores Mobiliários or the “CVM”) in order to launch as required by Brazilian law, after the CVM's approval, a tender offer to acquire the remaining 28.75% of the outstanding capital stock of Providência that is currently held by the minority shareholders (the “Mandatory Tender Offer”). The price per share to be paid to the minority shareholders in connection with the Mandatory Tender Offer will be substantially the same as paid to the selling shareholders upon acquisition of control, including the portion allocated to deferred consideration and escrow. In addition, the Company voluntarily opted to amend the Mandatory Tender Offer to provide the minority shareholders with an alternative price structure with no escrow or deferred purchase price. Based on the alternative offer, the minority shareholders would receive an all-cash purchase price at closing. The Mandatory Tender Offer registration request is currently under review with the CVM. Once the Mandatory Tender Offer is approved and launched, the minority shareholders have the right, but not the obligation, to sell their remaining outstanding capital stock of Providência. Given such right of the minority shareholders, the Company determined that ASC 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" ("ASC 480") requires the noncontrolling interest to be presented as mezzanine equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and adjusted to its estimated maximum redemption amount at each balance sheet date. Refer to Note 15, "Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest" for further information on the accounting of the redeemable noncontrolling interest. The Providência Acquisition was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations. As a result, the total purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair market value of such assets and liabilities at the Providência Acquisition Date. Any excess of the purchase price is recognized as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price and related measurement period adjustments are as follows:
In thousands | (Preliminary) June 11, 2014 | Measurement Period Adjustments | (Adjusted) June 11, 2014
Cash | $ | 20,621 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 20,621 |
Accounts receivable | 56,976 |  | (4,047 | ) | 52,929 |
Inventory | 33,000 |  | 1,077 |  | 34,077 |
Other current assets | 27,748 |  | 4,100 |  | 31,848 |
Total current assets | 138,345 |  | 1,130 |  | 139,475 |
Property, plant and equipment | 400,000 |  | (94,694 | ) | 305,306 |
Goodwill | 106,335 |  | 27,312 |  | 133,647 |
Intangible assets | 4,770 |  | 14,230 |  | 19,000 |
Other noncurrent assets | 12,288 |  | — |  | 12,288 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 661,738 |  | $ | (52,022 | ) | $ | 609,716 |
Current liabilities | $ | 28,863 |  | $ | 2,742 |  | $ | 31,605 |
Total debt | 74,930 |  | — |  | 74,930 |
Deferred income taxes | 38,373 |  | (42,808 | ) | (4,435 | )
Other noncurrent liabilities | 1,992 |  | — |  | 1,992 |
Total liabilities assumed | 144,158 |  | (40,066 | ) | 104,092 |
Redeemable noncontrolling interest | 92,990 |  | (12,198 | ) | 80,792 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 424,590 |  | $ | 242 |  | $ | 424,832 |
Cash, accounts receivable and current liabilities were stated at their historical carrying values, which approximate fair value, given the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The fair value for inventories was based on computations which considered many factors including the estimated selling price of the inventory, the cost to dispose of the inventory as well as the replacement cost of the inventory, where applicable. As a result, the Company increased the carrying value of inventory by $4.5 million. The fair value for property, plant and equipment was based on management's assessment of the acquired assets condition, as well as an evaluation of the current market value for such assets. In addition, the Company also considered the length of time over which the economic benefit of these assets is expected to be realized and adjusted the useful life of such assets accordingly as of the valuation date. As a result, the Company decreased the carrying value of property, plant and equipment by $16.9 million. The fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest was based upon management's assessment of the then current market value of the outstanding shares of stock. The Company recorded intangible assets, which consisted of a finite-lived customer relationship intangible asset with a fair value of $19.0 million. The valuation was determined using an income approach methodology using the multi-period excess earnings method. The average estimated useful life of the intangible asset is considered to be 15 years, determined based upon various accounting studies, historical acquisition experience, economic factors and future cash flows. The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocated to specific assets and liabilities is included in goodwill which has been allocated to the North America and South America segments. The goodwill associated with the Providência Acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The premium in the purchase price paid by the Company for the acquisition of Providência broadens our scale and further solidifies the Company's position as the largest manufacturer of nonwovens in the world. The Company anticipates that the broad base of clients associated with the acquisition of Providência will enhance the Company's position in hygiene products and markets as well as strengthen our position in the Americas. In the short-term, the Company anticipates realizing operational and cost synergies at Providência that include purchasing optimization due to larger volumes, reduced manufacturing costs and lower general and administrative costs. Acquisition related costs were as follows:
In thousands | Amount
Loan acquisition costs | $ | 21,297 |
Transaction expenses | 18,552 |
Total | $ | 39,849 |
Capitalized loan acquisition costs related to the Providência Acquisition of $10.6 million were recorded within Intangible assets, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the term of the loan to which such costs relate. The remainder, $10.7 million, was expensed as incurred during the second quarter and included within Debt Modification and Extinguishment Costs in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). These costs related to common lenders included in the incremental term loan amendment to the Company's existing Senior Secured Credit Agreement. In accordance with ASC 805, transaction expenses related to the Providência Acquisition were expensed as incurred within Special charges, net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Fiberweb Acquisition On September 17, 2013, PGI Acquisition Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement with Fiberweb containing the terms of a cash offer to purchase 100% of the issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Fiberweb at a cash price of £1.02 per share (the "Fiberweb Acquisition"). Under the terms of the agreement, Fiberweb would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The offer was effected by a court sanctioned scheme of arrangement of Fiberweb under Part 26 of the UK Companies Act 2006 and consummated on November 15, 2013 (the "Fiberweb Acquisition Date"). The aggregate purchase price was valued at $287.8 million and funded on November 27, 2013 with the proceeds of borrowings under a $268.0 million Senior Secured Bridge Credit Agreement and a $50.0 million Senior Unsecured Bridge Credit Agreement (together, the "Bridge Facilities"). The Bridge Facilities were subsequently refinanced, along with transaction expenses, with the proceeds from a $295.0 million Senior Secured Credit Agreement and a $30.7 million equity investment from Blackstone. Fiberweb is one of the largest global manufacturers of specialized technical fabrics with eight production sites in six countries. The Fiberweb Acquisition was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations. As a result, the total purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair market value of such assets and liabilities at the Fiberweb Acquisition Date. Any excess of the purchase price was recognized as goodwill in the North America segment. During the quarter ended September 27, 2014, the Company finalized its valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which resulted in the necessity to revise the original estimate of fair value. As required by the acquisition method of accounting, the Company retrospectively adjusted the acquisition date balance sheet and the results of operations of the fourth quarter and year ended December 28, 2013 to reflect the following: (1) an increase in the estimated fair value of property, plant and equipment; (2) an increase in the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets; (3) an increase in the deferred tax liability related to the increased value of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; and (4) a decrease in goodwill caused by the net effect of these adjustments. The recast allocation of the purchase price was as follows:
In thousands | November 15, 2013
Cash | $ | 8,792 |
Accounts receivable | 49,967 |
Inventory | 71,081 |
Other current assets | 29,889 |
Total current assets | 159,729 |
Property, plant and equipment | 187,529 |
Goodwill | 33,699 |
Intangible assets | 85,996 |
Other noncurrent assets | 1,403 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 468,356 |
Current liabilities | $ | 84,255 |
Financing Obligation | 20,300 |
Total debt | 19,391 |
Deferred income taxes | 45,974 |
Other noncurrent liabilities | 9,825 |
Noncontrolling interest | 849 |
Total liabilities assumed | $ | 180,594 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 287,762 |
Cash, accounts receivable and current liabilities were stated at their historical carrying values, which approximate their fair value, given the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. Inventories were recorded at fair value and was based on computations which considered many factors including the estimated selling price of the inventory, the cost to dispose of the inventory as well as the replacement cost of the inventory, where applicable. As a result, the Company increased the carrying value of inventory by $9.7 million. The estimate of fair value for property, plant and equipment was based on management's assessment of the acquired assets condition, as well as an evaluation of the current market value for such assets. In addition, the Company also considered the length of time over which the economic benefit of these assets is expected to be realized and adjusted the useful life of such assets accordingly as of the valuation date. As a result, the Company increased the carrying value of property, plant and equipment by $24.5 million. The Company recorded intangible assets based on an estimate of fair value, and consisted of the following:
In thousands | Useful Life |  | Amount
Technology | 15 years |  | $ | 31,827 |
Trade names | Indefinite |  | 11,412 |
Customer relationships | 20 years |  | 42,757 |
Total |  |  | $ | 85,996 |
The Company allocated $11.4 million to trade names, primarily related to Typar and Reemay. Management considered many factors in the determination that it will account for the asset as indefinite-lived, including the current market leadership position of the name as well as the recognition in the industry. Therefore, in accordance with current accounting guidance, the indefinite-lived intangible asset will not be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually (more frequently if certain indicators are present). The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocated to specific assets and liabilities is included in goodwill and has been allocated to the North America segment. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The premium in the purchase price paid by the Company for the acquisition of Fiberweb reflects the establishment of the largest manufacturer of nonwovens in the world. The Company anticipates that the improved diversity associated with the acquisition of Fiberweb will provide a foundation for enhanced access to customers in highly specialized, niche end markets as well as provide complementary solutions and new technologies to address our customer's desire for innovation and customized solutions. In the short-term, the Company anticipates realizing significant operational and cost synergies that include purchasing optimization due to larger volumes, improvement in manufacturing costs and lower general and administrative costs. Acquisition related costs were as follows:
In thousands | Amount
Loan acquisition costs | $ | 16,102 |
Transaction expenses | 15,783 |
Total | $ | 31,885 |
Loan acquisition costs related to the Fiberweb Acquisition were capitalized and recorded within Intangible assets, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized over the term of the loan to which such costs relate. In accordance with ASC 805, transaction expenses related to the Fiberweb Acquisition were expensed as incurred within Special charges, net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
