2018 Acquisitions and Divestitures

Pure Technologies Ltd.

On January 31, 2018, we acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Pure Technologies Ltd. (“Pure”), a leader in intelligent leak detection and condition assessment solutions for water distribution networks for approximately $420 million, net of cash received. Acquisition costs of $4 million were reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Income Statement.

Pure’s results of operations were consolidated with the Company effective February 1, 2018 and are reflected in the Measurement & Control Solutions segment.

The Pure purchase price allocation as of January 31, 2018 is shown in the following table:



(in millions)	Amount
Cash	$	14
Receivables	23
Inventories	4
Prepaid and other current assets	2
Property, plant and equipment	22
Intangible assets	149
Other long-term assets	1
Accounts payable	(3		)
Accrued and other current liabilities	(12		)
Deferred income tax liabilities	(25		)
Other non-current accrued liabilities	(2		)
Total identifiable net assets	173

Goodwill	261
Total consideration	$	434

The fair values of Pure's assets and liabilities were determined based on estimates and assumptions which management believes are reasonable.

Goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of Pure and Xylem. All of the goodwill was assigned to the Measurement & Control Solutions segment and is not deductible for tax purposes.

The estimate of the fair value of Pure identifiable intangible assets was determined primarily using the “income approach,” which requires a forecast of all of the expected future cash flows either through the use of the multi-period excess earnings method or the relief-from-royalty method. Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in the development of intangible asset values include: the amount and timing of projected future cash flows, the discount rate selected to measure the risks inherent in the future cash flows, the assessment of the intangible asset’s life cycle, as well as other factors. The following table summarizes key information underlying identifiable intangible assets related to the Pure acquisition:



Category	Life	Amount (in millions)
Customer Relationships	17 - 18 years	$	84
Technology	3 - 10 years	38
Tradenames	20 years	21
Internally Developed Software	3 years	6
Total		$	149

The following table summarizes, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the condensed combined results of operations of the Company for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 assuming the acquisition of Pure was made on January 1, 2017:



(in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2018
(in millions)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2018
Revenue	$	1,222
Net income	$	76

The foregoing unaudited pro forma results are for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the actual results of operations that might have occurred had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2017, nor are they necessarily indicative of future results. The pro forma financial information includes the impact of purchase accounting and other nonrecurring items directly attributable to the acquisition, which include:

•Amortization expense of acquired intangibles


•	Adjustments to the depreciation of property, plant and equipment reflecting the impact of the calculated fair value of those assets in accordance with purchase accounting


•	Adjustments to interest expense to remove historical Pure interest costs and reflect Xylem's current debt profile

•The related tax impact of the above referenced adjustments

The pro forma results do not include any cost savings or operational synergies that may be generated or realized due to the acquisition of Pure.

For the two month period ended March 31, 2018 Pure had revenue and operating loss of $16 million and $3 million, respectively.

Other Acquisition Activity

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 we also spent approximately $10 million net of cash received on other acquisition activity.
