Acquisitions Acquisitions
F&G
On June 1, 2020, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of F&G for approximately $2.7 billion. In connection with the Merger, we issued approximately 24 million shares of FNF common stock and paid approximately $1.8 billion in cash to former holders of F&G ordinary and preferred shares. Additionally, we accrued $132 million as a liability to the Kingstown Dissenters, who are former owners of F&G common stock. For more information related to the Dissenting Shareholders, refer to Note H Commitments and Contingencies. At closing, all outstanding shares of F&G common stock, excluding shares associated with the liability to former owners, were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Additionally, each outstanding F&G Option and F&G Phantom unit was cancelled and converted into options to purchase FNF common stock and phantom units denominated in FNF common stock, and each outstanding warrant to purchase F&G common stock was converted into the right to purchase and receive upon exercise $8.18 in cash and .0833 shares of FNF common stock. At closing, our subsidiaries' ownership of F&G common and preferred shares was converted into approximately 7 million shares of FNF common stock, which are reflected as treasury shares in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2020.

The initial purchase price is as follows (in millions):
Cash paid for outstanding F&G shares$1,803  
Less: Cash Acquired827  
Net cash paid for F&G976  
Value of FNF share consideration772  
Value of outstanding converted equity awards attributed to services already rendered28  
Liability accrued to former owners of F&G common shares132  
Total net consideration paid$1,908  
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations ("Topic 805").The purchase price has been allocated to F&G's assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our best estimates of their fair values as of the acquisition date. Due to the close proximity in timing of the F&G acquisition and our filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed represent a preliminary allocation as our evaluation of facts and circumstances available as of June 1, 2020 is ongoing. Goodwill has been recorded based on the amount that the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill consists primarily of intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill recorded is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes, except for $16 million related to a prior F&G transaction.
Pursuant to Topic 805, the financial statements will not be retrospectively adjusted for any provisional amount changes that occur in subsequent periods. Rather, we will recognize any provisional adjustments as we obtain information not available as of the completion of this preliminary fair value calculation as determined within the measurement period. We will also be required to record, in the same period as the financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of any change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Amounts reflect certain pro forma adjustments to revenue and net earnings that were directly attributable to the acquisition, and for the elimination of historical activity between FNF and F&G prior to the acquisition. These adjustments include the following:

elimination of valuation changes on FNF's investment in F&G common and preferred shares prior to the acquisition;

elimination of dividends received by FNF related to its holdings of F&G's common and preferred shares prior to the acquisition

elimination of advisory fees F&G paid to FNF

elimination of transaction costs paid by F&G

adjustment to record interest expense related to financing associated with the acquisition

adjustment to reflect the elimination of historical amortization of F&G intangibles and the additional amortization of F&G intangibles measured at fair value as of the acquisition date

adjustment to reflect the prospective reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive earnings of the unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities to a premium which will be amortized into income based on the expected life of the investment securities
