RE/MAX INTEGRA North America Regions Acquisition

On July 21, 2021, the Company acquired the operating companies of the North America regions of INTEGRA whose territories cover five Canadian provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Prince Edward Island) and nine U.S. states (Connecticut, Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin) for cash consideration of $235.0 million. The Company acquired these companies in order to convert these formerly Independent Regions into Company-Owned Regions, advance its ability to scale, deliver value to its affiliates and recapture the value differential of more than 19,000 agents (approximately 12,000 in Canada and 7,000 in the U.S. The Company funded the acquisition primarily by borrowing additional funds in connection with refinancing its Senior Secured Credit Facility (see Note 10, Debt), as well as using cash from operations.

The Company allocated $40.9 million of the purchase price to a loss on the pre-existing master franchise agreements with INTEGRA which were effectively settled with the acquisition. The loss represents the fair value of the difference between the historical contractual royalty rates paid by INTEGRA and the current market rate. The loss is recorded in “Settlement and impairment charges” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase price (net of settlement loss) to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the acquisition (in thousands):

(a)The Company expects to amortize the acquired franchise agreements over a weighted average useful life of approximately 12 years and the non-compete agreements included in Other intangible assets, net over a useful life of 5 years using the straight-line method.
(b)The excess of the total purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and projected long-term revenue growth for the RE/MAX network. The Company expects 50% of the goodwill in Canada but none in the U.S. to be deductible for tax purposes.

The Company finalized its accounting for the INTEGRA acquisition during the three months ended June 30, 2022.
