Asset Acquisitions And Business Combinations NOTE 3. ASSET ACQUISITIONS AND BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Asset Acquisitions

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Capstone Surgical Technologies, LLC, which engages in the business of advanced drill and robotic surgery platforms. The purchase price consisted of $24.5 million of cash paid at closing, subject to net working capital and other post-closing adjustments, if applicable. The transaction also provides for additional consideration contingent upon the developed products obtaining approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) of up to $15.0 million, and additional consideration of up to $10.0 million contingent upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. Contingent consideration is not recorded in an asset acquisition until the milestone is met.

Also during the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of a company that engages in the development of technology for use in robotic surgery platforms which was not considered material to the consolidated financial statements during the periods presented. The purchase price consisted of $10.0 million of cash paid at closing and also provides for additional consideration of $5.0 million contingent upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. Contingent consideration is not recorded in an asset acquisition until the milestone is met.

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company acquired Synoste Oy, a Finnish engineering company that specializes in the research and development of a limb lengthening system. The fair value of the net assets acquired was $25.3 million, and the consideration consisted of approximately $22.8 million of cash paid at closing plus $2.5 million of a contractual holdback obligation payable eighteen months from the closing date of the transaction, subject to net working capital and other post-closing adjustments, if applicable. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the contractual holdback and net working capital and other post-closing adjustments were settled for $2.7 million. The transaction also provides for additional consideration of $8.0 million contingent upon the developed product obtaining approval from the FDA within the third anniversary, or $4.0 million if within the fourth anniversary of the acquisition closing date, respectively. Contingent consideration is not recorded in an asset acquisition until the milestone is met.

The Company accounted for each of these transactions as asset acquisitions because substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired in each transaction was concentrated in a single identified asset, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) of the acquired technology, thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test in ASU 2017-1. At the date of the acquisitions, the Company determined that the development of the projects underway had not yet reached technological feasibility and that the research in process had no alternative future use. Accordingly, the acquired IPR&D of $34.3 million and $24.4 million was charged to research and development expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for years ended 2021 and 2020, respectively.

During the first nine months of 2022, the Company completed one acquisition in the second quarter that was not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements during the periods presented.
