Business Combination
On February 2, 2015, VMware acquired all of the outstanding shares of Immidio B.V. (“Immidio”) for approximately $21 million of cash, net of liabilities assumed. VMware acquired Immidio to expand VMware's Workspace Environment Management solutions within the End-User Computing product group. The preliminary purchase price primarily included $8 million of identifiable intangible assets and approximately $17 million of goodwill that is expected to be non-deductible for tax purposes. The impact of the acquisition was not material to VMware's condensed consolidated financial statements.
