Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

TRANSACTIONS

Business Combinations

The Company has determined that the acquisitions described below are business combinations under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Acquisitions that are determined to be the acquisition of a business are accounted for by applying the acquisition method, whereby the assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed are recorded at their fair values at the date of acquisition with any excess of the aggregate consideration over the fair values of the identifiable net assets allocated to goodwill. Operating results for the companies acquired have been included in these Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of the acquisition. Any goodwill recognized is attributed based on reporting units.

The purchase price allocations for the acquisitions reflect various fair value estimates and analyses which are subject to change within the measurement period, which is the one-year period subsequent to the acquisition date. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are subject to change relate to the fair value of certain tangible assets, the value of intangible assets acquired, and residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair value of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period.

Measurement period adjustments that the Company determined to be material will be applied prospectively in the Company’s future consolidated financial statements, and depending on the nature of the adjustments, other periods subsequent to the period of acquisition could be affected.
