Acquisitions

China Mist Brands, Inc.

On October 11, 2016, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities of China Mist Brands, Inc. dba China Mist Tea Company (“China Mist”), a provider of flavored iced teas and iced green teas. The acquisition of China Mist is expected to extend the Company's tea product offerings and give the Company a greater presence in the high-growth premium tea industry. As part of the transaction, the Company assumed the lease on China Mist’s existing 17,400 square foot production, distribution and warehouse facility in Scottsdale, Arizona which is terminable upon twelve months’ notice. The Company acquired China Mist for aggregate purchase consideration of $11.7 million, which included $11.2 million in cash paid at closing including working capital adjustments of $0.4 million and up to $0.5 million in contingent consideration to be paid as earnout if certain sales levels are achieved in the calendar years of 2017 or 2018. This contingent earnout liability is currently estimated to have a fair value of $0.5 million and is recorded in other current liabilities on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2017. The earnout is estimated to be paid within the next twelve months.

In the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company incurred $0.2 million in transaction costs related to the China Mist acquisition, consisting primarily of legal and accounting expenses, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The financial effect of this acquisition was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has not presented pro forma results of operations for the acquisition because it is not significant to the Company's consolidated results of operations.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The fair value of consideration transferred was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated amount recorded as goodwill. The purchase price allocation is preliminary as the Company is in the process of finalizing the valuation.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of consideration transferred as of the acquisition date:



(In thousands)	Fair Value			Estimated Useful Life (years)

Cash paid, net of cash acquired	$	11,183
Contingent consideration	500
Total consideration	$	11,683

Accounts receivable	$	811
Inventory	544
Prepaid assets	48
Property, plant and equipment	212
Goodwill	1,871
Intangible assets:
Recipes	930			7
Non-compete agreement	100			5
Customer relationships	450			10
Trade name/Trademark—finite-lived	7,100			10
Accounts payable	(383		)
Total consideration, net of cash acquired	$	11,683

In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $1.9 million, which is deductible for tax purposes. The Company also recorded $8.6 million in finite-lived intangible assets that included recipes, a non-compete agreement, customer relationships and a trade name/trademark. The weighted average amortization period for the finite-lived intangible assets is 9.6 years.

The determination of the fair value of intangible assets acquired was primarily based on significant inputs not observable in an active market and thus represent Level 3 fair value measurements as defined under GAAP.

The fair value assigned to the recipes was determined utilizing the replacement cost method, which captures the direct cost of the development effort plus lost profits over the time to re-create the recipes.

The fair value assigned to the non-compete agreement was determined utilizing the with and without method. Under the with and without method, the fair value of the intangible asset is estimated based on the difference in projected earnings with the agreement in place versus projected earnings based on starting with no agreement in place. Revenue and earnings projections were significant inputs into estimating the value of China Mist's non-compete agreement.

The fair value assigned to the customer relationships was determined based on management's estimate of the retention rate and utilizing certain benchmarks. Revenue and earnings projections were also significant inputs into estimating the value of customer relationships.

The fair value assigned to the trade name/trademark was determined utilizing a multi-period excess earnings approach. Under the multi-period excess earnings approach, the fair value of the intangible asset is estimated to be the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset and this method utilizes revenue and cost projections including an assumed contributory asset charge.

West Coast Coffee Company, Inc.

On February 7, 2017, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities of West Coast Coffee Company, Inc. (“West Coast Coffee”), a coffee roaster and distributor with a focus on the convenience store, grocery and foodservice channels. The acquisition of West Coast Coffee is expected to broaden the Company's reach in the Northwestern United States. As part of the transaction, the Company entered into a three-year lease on West Coast Coffee’s existing 20,400 square foot production, distribution and warehouse facility in Hillsboro, Oregon, which expires January 31, 2020, and assumed leases on six branch warehouses consisting of an aggregate of 24,150 square feet in Oregon, California and Nevada, expiring on various dates through November 2020. The Company acquired West Coast Coffee for aggregate purchase consideration of $15.7 million, which included $14.7 million in cash paid at closing including working capital adjustments of $1.2 million and up to $1.0 million in contingent consideration to be paid as earnout if certain sales levels are achieved in the twenty-four months following the closing. This contingent earnout liability is currently estimated to have a fair value of $0.6 million and is recorded in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2017. The earnout is estimated to be paid within the next twenty-four months.

In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company incurred $0.3 million in transaction costs related to the West Coast Coffee acquisition, consisting primarily of legal and accounting expenses, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of consideration transferred as of the acquisition date:

Total consideration, net of cash acquired	$	15,271

The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change based on numerous factors, including the final adjusted purchase price and the final estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $7.8 million, which is deductible for tax purposes. The Company also recorded $5.0 million in finite-lived intangible assets that included non-compete agreements, customer relationships, a trade name and a brand name. The weighted average amortization period for the finite-lived intangible assets is 9.3 years.

The fair value assigned to the non-compete agreements was determined utilizing the with and without method. Under the with and without method, the fair value of the intangible asset is estimated based on the difference in projected earnings with the agreements in place versus projected earnings based on starting with no agreements in place. Revenue and earnings projections were significant inputs into estimating the value of West Coast Coffee's non-compete agreements.

The fair value assigned to the customer relationships was determined utilizing a multi-period excess earnings approach. Under the multi-period excess earnings approach, the fair value of the intangible asset is estimated to be the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset and this method utilizes revenue and cost projections including an assumed contributory asset charge.

The fair values assigned to the trade name and the brand name were determined utilizing the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method is based on the premise that the intangible asset owner would be willing to pay a royalty rate to license the subject asset. The analysis involves forecasting revenue over the life of the asset, applying a royalty rate and a tax rate, and then discounting the savings back to present value at an appropriate discount rate.
