Acquisition of Business Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisition of NewVoiceMedia
On October 31, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of NVM, a cloud CCaaS provider, for a purchase price of $350,179 paid in cash. NVM is a private limited company organized under the laws of England & Wales. Adding NVM's contact center solutions to its existing suite of products will enable the Company to offer a full array of cloud business communications solutions delivered through owned technology.
The acquisition was recorded as a business combination under ASC 805, with identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed provisionally recorded at their estimated fair value on the acquisition date. The accounting for the business combination was completed as of October 31, 2019, at which point the fair values became final.
Under the terms of the offer, NVM shareholders received cash in the amount of approximately $341 million (approximately £260 million based on a 1.31335 GBP to USD exchange rate as of September 18, 2018) shortly after completion of the offer and the Company paid transactions costs incurred by NVM of approximately $9 million on the date of the acquisition.
The table below summarizes the NVM assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of October 31, 2018:

The fair values of intangible assets at the acquisition date were measured primarily based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The fair values of the trade name, customer relationships and developed technology were determined utilizing variations of the income approach where the expected future cash flows resulting from the acquired identifiable intangible assets were reduced by operating costs and charges for contributory assets and then discounted to present value at the weighted average cost of capital.
The Company recorded goodwill of $213,540 which is attributable to the Business segment and is not deductible for tax purposes. The factors that resulted in goodwill arising from the acquisition include the revenues and synergies anticipated with the ability to provide a contact center solution to our existing suite of cloud communication services along with a skilled workforce proficient in API development. The Company also recorded intangible assets of $154.3 million comprised of trade name of $5.3 million, customer relationships of $87 million, and developed technology of $62 million. In addition, the Company incurred and expensed acquisition related transaction costs included in general and administrative expense related to the acquisition of NVM of $253 and $9,627 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Acquisition of TokBox

Sale of Hosted Infrastructure Product Line

On May 31, 2017, we completed the sale of our Hosted Infrastructure product line for up to $4.0 million consideration comprised of $1.0 million received upon closing, an additional $0.5 million of contingent consideration received during the third quarter of 2017 and the potential for up to $2.5 million further consideration based on the achievement of financial objectives for net sales during the 18 months following closing. The results of our Hosted Infrastructure product line have historically been included within the Business segment. As a result of the sale, we recorded a gain $1,879 for the year ended December 31, 2017, within other income. This disposal did not represent a strategic shift in operations and, therefore, did not qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.
