Acquisitions and Joint Venture

Note 2. Acquisitions and Joint Venture

All acquisitions were funded by cash generated from operations or facility borrowings.

On June 7, 2024, CooperSurgical acquired a fertility company that specializes in sperm separation devices. The purchase price of the acquisition was $33.5 million. The Company accounted for this acquisition as an asset acquisition, whereby the Company allocated the total cost of the acquisition to the net assets acquired on the basis of their estimated relative fair values on the acquisition date. The primary asset acquired in this asset acquisition is a composite intangible asset of $39.6 million. The value of

the composite intangible asset reflects, in addition to the purchase price, a deferred tax liability of $8.3 million arising from book/tax basis differences generated upon the acquisition. The composite intangible asset encompasses the portfolio of intellectual property associated with the sperm separation devices including the patents, trademarks, customer relationships, regulatory approvals, and commercialization rights, which have been valued as a single composite intangible asset as they are inextricably linked.

On November 1, 2023, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of select Cook Medical assets focused primarily on the obstetrics, doppler monitoring, and gynecology surgery markets. The purchase price of the acquisition was $300.0 million, with $200.0 million paid at closing and two cash payments of $50.0 million each to be paid on November 1, 2024, and November 1, 2025. The present value of the acquisition purchase price was $291.6 million, which is included in the Company's balance sheet. Assets acquired primarily comprised of $157.9 million of technologies, $26.6 million of customer relationship related intangibles, and $107.2 million of goodwill. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
