On February 1, 2017, we acquired the business and certain assets of McKinney Rogers, a provider of strategic consulting services with offices in New York and London. The upfront purchase price was $4.0 million in cash. In addition, the purchase agreement requires up to an additional $18.0 million of consideration, $6.0 million of which is contingent upon the achievement of certain earnings targets during the five-month period ending April 30, 2017 and $12.0 million of which is contingent upon the achievement of certain earnings targets during the three twelve-month periods following completion of the acquisition. The acquired McKinney Rogers business will be included in the Performance Readiness Solutions segment and the results of its operations will be included in the consolidated financial statements beginning February 1, 2017.
