Englander dZignPak

On October 9, 2018, PCA acquired the assets of Englander dZignPak (“Englander”), a corrugated products manufacturer, for $56.3 million. The assets include two sheet plants located in Waco, Texas and Carrollton, Texas. Sales and total assets of the acquired company are not material to our overall sales and total assets. Operating results of the acquired assets subsequent to October 9, 2018 are included in our Packaging segment’s 2018 and 2019 operating results. The total purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on fair values at the date of acquisition, of which $28.6 million was allocated to goodwill (which is deductible for tax purposes) and $14.1 million to intangible assets (to be amortized over a weighted average life of approximately 9.7 years), primarily customer relationships, in the Packaging segment.

During the second quarter of 2019, we paid $1.4 million to the seller related to a final working capital adjustment. We recorded the adjustment as an increase to goodwill, which increased the purchase price to $57.7 million.
