Acquisitions
 
Acquisition of Pramac
 
On
March
1,
2016,
the Company acquired a
65%
ownership interest in Pramac for a purchase price, net of cash
acquired, of
$60,250.
Headquartered in Siena, Italy, Pramac is a leading global manufacturer of stationary, mobile and portable generators primarily sold under the Pramac® brand. Pramac products are sold in over
150
countries through a broad distribution network. The acquisition purchase price was funded solely through cash on hand.
 
The
35%
noncontrolling interest in
Pramac had an acquisition date fair value of
$34,253,
and was recorded as a redeemable noncontrolling interest in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, as the noncontrolling interest holder has within its control the right to require the Company to redeem its interest in Pramac. The noncontrolling interest holder has a put option to sell their interests to the Company any time within
five
years from the date of acquisition. The put option price is either (i) a fixed amount if voluntarily exercised within the
first
two
years after the acquisition, or (ii) based on a multiple of earnings, subject to the terms of the acquisition. Additionally, the Company holds a call option that it
may
redeem commencing
five
years from the date of acquisition, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. The call option price is based on a multiple of earnings that is subject to the terms of the acquisition. Both the put and call option only provide for the complete transfer of the noncontrolling interest, with no partial transfers of interest permitted.
 
The redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the greater of the initial fair value, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interests
’ share of comprehensive income (loss), or the estimated redemption value, with any adjustments to the redemption value impacting retained earnings, but not net income. However, the redemption value adjustments are reflected in the earnings per share calculation, as detailed in Note
10,
“Earnings Per Share,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table presents the changes in the redeemable noncontrolling interest:
