Acquisitions [Abstract]  
Business Combination Disclosure
ACQUISITIONS

We account for business acquisitions in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that most assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and earn-out consideration be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Measurement period adjustments to provisional purchase price allocations are recognized in the period in which they are determined as if the accounting had been competed on the acquisition date.

AmCo Holding Company

On April 3, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of AmCo. The transaction was completed through a series of mergers that ultimately resulted in the Company issuing 20,956,355 shares of its common stock as merger consideration to the equity holders of RDX Holding, LLC, the former parent company of AmCo. As a result of the mergers, AmCo merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of AmCo supported the Company's growth strategy and further strengthened the Company's overall position in the commercial property and casualty insurance market. Goodwill recorded in the transaction, which reflected the synergies expected from the acquisition and enhanced reinsurance opportunities, is not tax deductible.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, AmCo recorded $134,386,000 of revenues and $12,579,000 of pre-tax net income. These amounts are included in our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The operations of AmCo are included in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income effective April 3, 2017. We have one year from the acquisition date to finalize the allocation of the purchase price of AmCo and its subsidiaries. The final purchase price allocation was as follows:
