Note 4. Acquisitions

Kremers Urban Pharmaceuticals Inc.

On November 25, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of KUPI, the former U.S. specialty generic pharmaceuticals subsidiary of global biopharmaceuticals company UCB S.A., pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement. KUPI is a specialty pharmaceuticals manufacturer focused on the development of products that are difficult to formulate or utilize specialized delivery technologies. Strategic benefits of the acquisition include expanded manufacturing capacity, a diversified product portfolio and pipeline and complementary research and development expertise.

Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Lannett purchased 100% of the outstanding equity interests of KUPI for total consideration of approximately $1.2 billion.

The following table summarizes the fair value of total consideration transferred to KUPI shareholders at the acquisition date of November 25, 2015:

(In thousands)
Cash purchase price paid to KUPI shareholders	$	1,030,000
Working capital adjustment	(41,605		)
Certain amounts reimbursable by UCB	(37,340		)

Total cash consideration transferred to KUPI shareholders	951,055
12.0% Senior Notes issued to UCB	200,000
Acquisition-related contingent consideration	35,000
Warrant issued to UCB	29,920

Total consideration to KUPI shareholders	$	1,215,975

The Company funded the acquisition and transaction expenses with proceeds from the issuance of the $910.0 million of term loans, $22.8 million borrowings from a revolving credit facility, the issuance of $250.0 million Senior Notes (see Note 12 “Long-term Debt”) and cash on hand of $94.6 million. Lannett also issued a warrant with an estimated fair value of $29.9 million.

As part of the acquisition, the Company and UCB have agreed to jointly make an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and under the corresponding provisions of state law, to treat the acquisition as a deemed purchase and sale of assets for income tax purposes. The Company has agreed to reimburse UCB for 50% of the incremental tax cost of making such election, subject to a reimbursement cap of $35.0 million. This liability has been recorded as acquisition-related contingent consideration on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. This election is expected to result in additional tax benefits to the Company of approximately $100.0 million.

The Company also agreed to contingent payments related to Methylphenidate Hydrochloride Extended Release tablets (“Methylphenidate ER”) provided the FDA reinstates the AB-rating for such product and certain sales thresholds are met. On October 18, 2016, the Company received notice from the FDA that it will seek to withdraw approval of the Company’s ANDA for Methylphenidate ER. See Note 11 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” for more information.

The Company used the acquisition method of accounting to account for this transaction. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values.

The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the KUPI business as follows:

(In thousands)	Purchase Price Allocation
Cash and cash equivalents	$	16,877
Accounts receivable, net of revenue-related reserves	129,408
Inventories	84,009
Other current assets	11,238
Property, plant and equipment	111,849
Product rights	427,000

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a $6.0 million measurement period adjustment to the Returns reserve.

Included in the purchase price allocation above are indemnification assets totaling approximately $20.7 million, of which $10.4 million relates to compensation-related payments, $4.9 million relates to unrecognized tax benefits and $5.4 million for chargeback and rebate-related items. The inventory balance above includes $19.1 million to reflect fair value step-up adjustments. KUPI’s intangible assets primarily consist of product rights and in-process research and development. See Note 11 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets.”

Amounts allocated to acquired in-process research and development represent the fair value of purchased in-process technology for research projects that, as of the closing date of the acquisition, had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. The fair value of in-process research and development was based on the excess earnings method, which utilizes forecasts of expected cash inflows (including estimates for ongoing costs) and other contributory charges, on a project-by-project basis at the appropriate discount rate for the inherent risk in each project and will be tested for impairment in accordance with the Company’s policy for testing indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Goodwill of $339.4 million arising from the acquisition consists primarily of the value of the employee workforce and the value of products to be developed in the future. The goodwill was assigned to the Company’s only reporting unit. Goodwill recognized is expected to be fully deductible for income tax purposes.
