Silvus Acquisition
On August 6, 2025, the Company acquired Silvus from the Seller. Silvus designs and develops software-defined high-speed MANET technology that enables highly secure data, video and voice communications without the need for fixed infrastructure. This acquisition brings mobile ad-hoc network expertise and new applications to the Company's public safety and enterprise portfolio. The purchase price of $4.4 billion consisted of cash payments of $4.4 billion, net of cash acquired and customary purchase price adjustments, and contingent earnout consideration that had an estimated fair value as of the acquisition date of $38 million.
Under the terms of the transaction, the Seller will have the potential to earn contingent earnout consideration upon the achievement of certain financial targets of up to $600 million in total comprised of up to $150 million for the annual period from July 5, 2026 through July 3, 2027 and up to $450 million for the annual period from July 4, 2027 through July 1, 2028 (with the potential to earn catch-up earnout consideration based on performance in the annual period from July 4, 2027 through July 1, 2028 if the maximum earnout for the annual period from July 5, 2026 through July 3, 2027 is not earned). The contingent earnout consideration, if any, will be paid in shares of common stock. The Company valued the contingent earnout consideration using a Monte Carlo methodology which resulted in the Company recognizing $38 million in purchase consideration at the date of close in Other liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contingent earnout consideration will continue to be valued at fair value until settled. Changes to the fair value of the contingent earnout consideration will be recorded as a component of operating income within Other income, net in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations. For further information, refer to "Note 10: Fair Value Measurements" in this "Part 1 — Financial Information" of this Form 10-Q.
The Company recognized goodwill of $3.0 billion which was allocated primarily to the Products and Systems Integration segment. In addition, the Company recognized $1.9 billion of intangible assets and $407 million of net liabilities, inclusive of $454 million of deferred tax liabilities and $47 million of net tangible assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from the other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized including future customer relationships, new technology and the assembled workforce. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
The identifiable intangible assets were each classified primarily as one asset as follows: $135 million of trade names, $820 million of customer relationships and $920 million of developed technology which will be amortized over a period of twelve, twelve and eight years, respectively. The fair values of all intangible assets were estimated using the income approach. Customer relationships was valued under the excess earnings method, which assumes that the value of intangible assets is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable specifically to the intangible assets. Developed technology and trade names were valued under the relief from royalty method, which assumes value to the extent that the acquired company is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. The Company applies significant judgment in determining the estimates and assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the intangible assets, including the forecasted revenue growth rates, customer attrition rate, and discount rate for customer relationships and the forecasted revenue growth rates, royalty rate, and discount rate for developed technology.
This business is part of both the Products and Systems Integration segment and the Software and Services segment. Between the acquisition date and April 4, 2026, the Company recorded a net reduction of $15 million in goodwill and an increase primarily to intangible assets related to purchase accounting adjustments during the measurement period. The purchase accounting is not yet complete and as such, the final allocation among income tax accounts, intangible assets, net tangible assets and goodwill may be subject to change.
