Acquisitions

On June 5, 2018, we acquired a 70% interest in a hydroponic herb farm in the Middle East for a purchase price of $1.7 million funded using operating cash flows and available borrowings under the Credit Facility (as defined in Note 12, “Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations”). The results of operations have been included in our consolidated financial statements since that date. The acquisition consisted primarily of working capital and property, plant and equipment.

On May 7, 2018, we paid $4.2 million for a 10% equity ownership interest in Three Limes, Inc., d/b/a The Purple Carrot, a privately-held company providing plant-based meal kits in North America. Our investment was funded using operating cash flows and available borrowings under the Credit Facility. We account for this investment using the measurement alternative election under the ASC guidance on “Financial Instruments” and we do not exercise significant influence over the privately-held company’s operating or financial activities. The measurement alternative election requires us to measure the investment at cost less impairment, if any, adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investments. No adjustments or impairments have been made as of June 29, 2018. We review our investments for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the decline in fair value of such assets below the carrying value is other-than-temporary.

On February 26, 2018, we completed the acquisition of 100% of the voting interests of Mann Packing. The results of Mann Packing's operations have been included in our consolidated financial statements since that date. This acquisition expanded our fresh-cut, vegetable and prepared product offerings in North America. We purchased all of its outstanding capital stock for an aggregate consideration of $372.9 million funded by a $229.7 million three-day promissory note and $143.2 million in cash funded through borrowings under our Credit Facility. The three-day promissory note was settled with cash on hand and additional borrowings under our Credit Facility.

Based on an evaluation of the provisions of ASC Business Combinations ("Topic 805"), the purchase price allocation reflected in the accompanying financial statements is preliminary and is based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period. Topic 805 allows entities a measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date to finalize the allocation. The measurement period remains open pending the completion of valuation procedures related to the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities. The $328.8 million allocated to goodwill on our Consolidated Balance Sheets represents the excess of the purchase price over the preliminary values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and is subject to revision. We are still evaluating our reportable segments and have preliminarily included the goodwill related to this acquisition in the other fresh produce segment. We are still evaluating the tax implications of this transaction.

5. Acquisitions (continued)

We recognized $2.6 million of acquisition related costs which primarily consist of advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, other professional and consulting fees and are included in asset impairment and other charges (credits), net. Refer to Note 4, “Asset Impairment and Other Charges (Credits), Net".

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition:



Assets acquired
Current assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	0.1
Trade accounts receivable, net of allowance	39.4
Other accounts receivable, net of allowance	1.2
Inventories, net	21.1
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	2.1
Total current assets	63.9

Property, plant and equipment, net	70.2
Goodwill	328.8
Total assets acquired	$	462.9
Liabilities assumed
Current liabilities:
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	$	50.9
Total liabilities assumed	$	50.9

Less: Redeemable noncontrolling interest	39.1

Net assets acquired	$	372.9

The Mann Packing acquisition includes a put option exercisable by the 25% shareholder of one of the acquired subsidiaries. The put option allows the noncontrolling shareholder to sell its 25% noncontrolling interest to us for a multiple of the subsidiary's adjusted earnings. The noncontrolling shareholder can exercise this put option on or after April 1, 2023. Following a 5-year window expiring on April 1, 2028, the put option value will be negotiated annually and the inputs are subject to change. As the put option is outside of our control, the estimated redemption value of the 25% noncontrolling interest is presented as a redeemable noncontrolling interest outside of permanent equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value assigned to this interest at acquisition date is subject to change and is pending completion. Refer to Note 7, “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests”, for further discussion.
