2021 Acquisition and Divestiture

GT Advanced Technologies, Inc. ("GTAT") Acquisition

On October 28, 2021, the Company acquired all of outstanding equity interests of GTAT. The Company believes the acquisition of GTAT will act as a building block to fuel growth and accelerate innovation in disruptive intelligent power technologies and secure supply of SiC to meet growing customer demand for SiC-based solutions in the sustainable ecosystem.

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the purchase price totaled $434.9 million. Cash consideration amounted to $424.6 million, of which $17.0 million was deposited for general representation and warranty purposes in an escrow account, legally owned by the Company. All 17.0 million was released to the seller in accordance with the escrow agreements during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The remaining consideration of approximately $10.0 million represented the value of certain pre-acquisition deposits and payable balances effectively settled between the parties since the Company was GTAT's customer. From the closing date of the acquisition through December 31, 2021, the Company recognized immaterial revenue and net loss relating to GTAT .

The allocation of the purchase price of GTAT to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values is as follows (in millions):
Purchase Price Allocation
Cash and cash equivalents$8.2 
Inventory and other current assets10.0 
Property, plant and equipment31.9 
Goodwill274.8 
Intangible assets - Developed Technology130.0 
Deferred tax assets13.4

Total assets acquired475.7 
Current liabilities5.8 
Other long-term liabilities35.0 
Total liabilities assumed40.8 
Net assets acquired/purchase price$434.9 

Developed technology of $130.0 million, determined using the income approach is estimated to have a useful life of 13 years. There were no IPRD intangible assets identified. The acquisition produced $274.8 million of goodwill, which has been assigned to a reporting unit within PSG. Goodwill is attributable to the expected value generation by GTAT by being part of the Company along with a more meaningful engagement by the customers due to the scale of the combined entities, GTAT's assembled workforce and other product and operating synergies. Goodwill arising from the GTAT acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
