ACQUISITION

The Company continually evaluates potential acquisitions that either strategically fit with the Company’s existing portfolio or expand the Company’s portfolio into new and attractive business areas. Among other things, goodwill arises because the purchase prices for these businesses reflect a number of factors including the future earnings and cash flow potential of these businesses, the multiple to earnings, cash flow and other factors at which similar businesses have been purchased by other acquirers, the competitive nature of the processes by which the Company acquired the businesses, avoidance of the time and costs which would be required (and the associated risks that would be encountered) to enhance the Company’s existing product offerings to key target markets and enter into new and profitable businesses and the complementary strategic fit and resulting synergies these businesses bring to existing operations.

The Company makes an initial allocation of the purchase price at the date of acquisition based upon its estimation of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company obtains the information used to estimate the fair values during due diligence and through other sources. In the months after closing, up to 12 months, as the Company obtains additional information that existed at the acquisition date about these assets and liabilities, it is able to refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only items that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.

On January 21, 2020, the Company acquired all of the shares of Matricel GmbH (“Matricel”) for cash consideration of approximately $43.6 million. Matricel, a German company, is a provider of biomaterials used in dental applications and complements the Company’s Specialty Products & Technologies segment. For the year ended December 31, 2020, Matricel’s revenue and earnings were not material to the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations. Goodwill will not be deductible for income tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date ($ in millions):


	January 21, 2020
Assets acquired:
Cash	$	2.9
Trade accounts receivable	1.0
Inventories	1.9
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	0.2
Property, plant and equipment	0.5
Goodwill	25.1
Other intangible assets	22.3
Total assets acquired	53.9

Trade accounts payable	(0.1)
Accrued expenses and other liabilities	(10.2)
Total liabilities assumed	(10.3)
Total net assets acquired	$	43.6

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill resulting from the acquisition. Goodwill attributable to the acquisition has been recorded as a non-current asset and is not amortized, but is subject to review at least on an annual basis for impairment. Goodwill recognized was primarily attributable to expected operating efficiencies and expansion opportunities in the business acquired. The pro forma impact of this acquisition is not presented as it was not considered material to the Company's Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements.

The intangible assets acquired consist of technology and customer relationships. The weighted average amortization period of the acquired intangible assets in the aggregate is 10 years.
