18. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On October 3, 2011, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity of Calypso, a privately-held supplier of specialized products and software for real-time tumor tracking and motion management during radiosurgery and radiotherapy. This acquisition, which was integrated into the Company’s Oncology Systems business, enables the Company to offer real-time, non-ionizing tumor tracking tools for enhancing the precision of cancer treatments. This acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The total purchase price of $15.8 million consisted of $10.9 million of cash consideration and $4.9 million of contingent consideration at fair value. Of the purchase price, $2.5 million was preliminarily allocated to goodwill, $7.9 million to amortizable intangible assets, and $5.4 million to net assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and in this case is not deductible for income tax purposes.
