(2) Acquisitions and Divestitures 

 

On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the divestiture of its retail cash-in-transit operation in the U.K. This business was primarily engaged in the collection of cash from retail locations and was originally acquired through the Sunwin Services Group acquisition completed in November 2014. The Company recognized divestiture proceeds at their estimated fair value of approximately $39 million in 2015. Of this amount, approximately $31 million was collected during the year ended December 31, 2015, and the remainder was collected during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The net pre-tax gain recognized on this transaction in 2015 was $16.6 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reached resolution of certain contingent terms in the agreement and recorded an additional pre-tax gain of approximately $1.8 million.

 

On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of CDS for a total purchase price of approximately $80.6 million. CDS is a leading independent transaction processor for ATM deployers and payment card issuers, providing leading-edge solutions to ATM sales and service organizations and financial institutions.

 

The total purchase consideration for CDS was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including identifiable tangible and intangible assets, based on their respective fair values estimated at the date of acquisition. The estimated fair values of the intangible assets included the acquired customer relationships valued at $16.5 million, technology valued at $7.8 million, and other intangible assets valued at $1.7 million. Intangible values were estimated utilizing primarily a discounted cash flow approach, with the assistance of an independent appraisal firm. The fair values of the tangible assets acquired included property, plant, and equipment and were valued at $4.6 million and estimated utilizing the market and cost approaches. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $52.7 million. This goodwill has been assigned to the Company’s North America reporting segment and is primarily attributable to expected synergies that will be realized by the North America segment. The Company completed the purchase accounting for CDS in January 2016 recognizing no additional adjustments to the preliminary opening balance sheet. All of the goodwill and intangible asset amounts are expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

 

On April 13, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of a 2,600 location ATM portfolio in the U.S. This acquisition was affected through multiple closings taking place primarily in April 2016. The total cash purchase price of approximately $13.8 million was paid in installments corresponding to each close. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had recognized property, plant, and equipment of $7.6 million, contract intangibles and prepaid merchant commissions of $7.9 million, and asset retirement obligations of $1.7 million. As of June 30, 2016, the accounting remains preliminary, pending completion of the related asset appraisals.
