NOTE D— ACQUISITION

Acquisition of Compressor Systems, Inc.

On August 4, 2014, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated July 20, 2014, one of our subsidiaries acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of CSI for $825.0 million cash (the "CSI Acquisition"). Prior to the acquisition, CSI owned one of the largest fleets of natural gas compressor packages in the United States. Headquartered in Midland, Texas, CSI fabricates, sells, and maintains natural gas compressors and provides a full range of compression products and services that covers compression needs throughout the entire natural gas production and transportation cycle to natural gas and oil producing clients. CSI derives revenues through three primary business lines: compression and related services, equipment and parts sales, and aftermarket services. Strategically, the acquisition affords us the opportunity to capture significant synergies associated with our product and service offerings and our fabrication operations, further penetrate new and existing markets, and to achieve administrative efficiencies and other strategic benefits.

Our allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair value of the CSI net assets is as follows (in thousands):
Current assets
$
101,411

Property, plant, and equipment
571,706

Intangible assets
68,000

Goodwill
161,387

Total assets acquired
$
902,504

 
 
Current liabilities
$
77,504

Total liabilities assumed
77,504

Net assets acquired
$
825,000


The allocation of purchase price includes approximately $161.4 million allocated to deductible goodwill, and is supported by the strategic benefits discussed above that are expected to be generated from the acquisition. Adjustments to the allocation of purchase price affecting inventory, property, plant, and equipment, intangible assets, and other current assets and liabilities have been reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The adjustment to the previously presented goodwill balance as of December 31, 2014 was $0.1 million. These adjustments in 2015 to the allocation of purchase price for long-lived assets did not have a material impact on the depreciation and amortization of these assets. The acquired property, plant, and equipment is stated at fair value, and depreciation on the acquired property, plant, and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of each asset. Buildings are depreciated using useful lives of 15 to 30 years. Machinery and equipment is depreciated using useful lives of 2 to 20 years. Automobiles and trucks are depreciated using useful lives of 3 to 4 years. The acquired intangible assets as of the acquisition date represents approximately $33.7 million for the trademarks/trade names, approximately $21.4 million for customer relationships, and approximately $12.9 million of other intangible assets that are stated at estimated fair value and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 2 to 15 years. These intangible assets are recorded net of approximately $6.8 million and $4.1 million of accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, our revenues, depreciation and amortization, and pretax earnings, excluding interest allocation, included $152.5 million, $25.2 million, and $15.8 million, respectively, associated with the acquisition of CSI after the closing on August 4, 2014. In addition, CSI Acquisition-related costs of approximately $5.5 million were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to external legal fees, transaction consulting fees, and due diligence costs. These costs have been recognized in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. Approximately $16.6 million of deferred financing costs were incurred in connection with the CSI Acquisition and included in Other Assets as of the acquisition date, and are amortized over the term of the related debt. An additional $6.8 million of interim financing costs were incurred and reflected in other expense during the year ended December 31, 2014.
