ACQUISITIONS

Fiscal 2011

On January 28, 2011, we entered into a Master Purchase Agreement. The Master Purchase Agreement outlines the general terms and conditions pursuant to which we agreed to acquire, through the acquisition of equity and/or assets, a retail apparel and footwear product identification business which designs, manufactures and sells tags and labels, brand protection, and EAS solutions/labels (collectively, the “Shore to Shore businesses”). The acquisition was settled on May 16, 2011 for approximately $78.7 million, net of cash acquired of $1.9 million and the assumption of debt of $4.2 million. The purchase price was funded by $66.7 million of cash from operations and $9.2 million of borrowings under our 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility, and included the acquisition of the following:
100% of the voting equity interests of J&F International, Inc. (U.S.), Shore to Shore Far East (Hong Kong), Shore to Shore MIS (India), Shore to Shore Lacar SA (Guatemala), Adapt Identification (HK) Ltd., and W Print Europe Ltd. (UK);
Assets of Shore to Shore, Inc. (U.S.), Shanghai WH Printing Co. Ltd., Wing Hung (Dongguan) Printing Co., Ltd., and Wing Hung Printing Co., Ltd. (U.S.);
51% of the voting equity interests of Shore to Shore PVT Ltd. (Sri Lanka);
50% of the voting equity interests of the Cybsa Adapt SA de CV (El Salvador) joint venture. In accordance with ASC 323 “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures”, we have applied the Equity Method in recording this joint venture.

During the second quarter of 2012, we finalized the purchase accounting of the acquisition of the Shore to Shore businesses. At June 24, 2012, the financial statements reflected the final allocation of the purchase price based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, including $17.1 million in Property, Plant, and Equipment, $7.1 million in Accounts Receivable, and $2.2 million in Inventories. This final allocation resulted in acquired goodwill of $59.7 million, of which $9.8 million is tax deductible, and intangible assets of $10.5 million. The intangible assets were composed of a non-compete agreement ($0.3 million), customer lists ($9.8 million), and trade names ($0.4 million). The useful lives were 5 years for the non-compete agreement, 10 years for the customer lists, and 7.5 months for the trade names. The results from the acquisition date through December 25, 2011 were included in the Apparel Labeling Solutions segment (revenues of $35.3 million and a net loss of $9 thousand).

The purchase price included a payment to escrow of $17.5 million related to the 2010 performance of the acquired business. This amount is subject to adjustment pending final determination of the 2010 performance and could result in an additional purchase price payment of up to $6.3 million. An arbitration process has required the seller to provide audited financial information related to the 2010 performance. When this information is received, the final adjustment to the purchase price will be reflected through earnings. Acquisition related costs incurred in connection with the transaction are recognized within acquisition costs in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and approximate $1.0 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 29, 2013 and December 30, 2012, respectively.

As we acquired 51% of the outstanding voting shares of Shore to Shore PVT Ltd. (Sri Lanka) in exchange for $1.7 million in cash, we classified the non-controlling interests as equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 29, 2013 and December 30, 2012, and presented net income attributable to non-controlling interests separately on our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the years ended December 29, 2013 , December 30, 2012 and December 25, 2011. The fair value of the non-controlling interest was estimated by applying a market approach. Key assumptions include control premiums associated with guideline transactions of entities deemed to be similar to Shore to Shore PVT Ltd. (Sri Lanka), and adjustments because of the lack of control that market participants would consider when measuring the fair value of the non-controlling interest. On June 24, 2013, we completed the sale of our 51% interest for which we received cash proceeds of $0.2 million (net of a stamp duty). The gain on sale of $0.2 million is recorded within other operating income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Pro forma results of operations have not been presented individually or in the aggregate for this acquisition because the effects of the acquisition were not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
