Freedman Seating Company

In April 2025, the Company acquired substantially all of the business assets of Freedman Seating Company, a manufacturer of transportation seating solutions to the bus, rail, marine, delivery truck, and specialty and commercial vehicle markets. The cash consideration was approximately $68.6 million, subject to customary adjustments related to working capital and indebtedness. The Company also assumed $10.0 million of the seller's debt related to new market tax credits. The results of the acquired business have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income since the acquisition date, primarily in the OEM segment. The Company is in the process of determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the opening balance sheet, including net working capital, fixed assets, and the fair value of intangible assets. As this acquisition is not considered to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, pro forma results of operations and other disclosures are not presented. The acquisition of this business was preliminarily recorded as of the acquisition date as follows (in thousands):

Cash consideration$68,608 
Debt assumed10,000 
Total consideration$78,608 
Customer relationships$25,900 
Other identifiable intangible assets8,700 
Net tangible assets25,251 
Total fair value of net assets acquired$59,851 
Goodwill (tax deductible)$18,757 

The customer relationships intangible asset is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 10 years. The consideration given was greater than the fair value of the net assets acquired, resulting in goodwill, because the Company anticipates the attainment of synergies and an increase in the markets for the acquired products.

Trans/Air Manufacturing Corporation

In March 2025, the Company acquired substantially all of the business assets of Trans/Air Manufacturing Corporation, a manufacturer of climate control systems for the school, commercial, and electric/hybrid vehicle markets. The Company paid $29.6 million in cash consideration at closing with contingent consideration up to a maximum of $2.0 million. The results of the acquired business have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income since the acquisition date, primarily
in the OEM segment. As this acquisition is not considered to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, pro forma results of operations and other disclosures are not presented.

Goodwill

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment were as follows:

Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration given in an acquisition of a business over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested at the reporting unit level for impairment annually in November, or more frequently if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist.
