GreatCall, Inc.

On October 1, 2018, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of GreatCall, Inc. (“GreatCall”) for net cash consideration of $787 million. GreatCall, a leading connected health services provider for aging consumers, offers easy-to-use mobile products and connected devices, tailored for seniors. These products are combined with a range of services, including a simple, one-touch connection to U.S.-based, specially-trained agents who can connect the user to family caregivers, provide concierge services and dispatch emergency personnel. The acquisition of GreatCall is aligned with our strategy to address health and wellness with a focus on aging consumers and how technology can help them live more independent lives.

The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. All of the goodwill was assigned to our Best Buy Health reporting unit within our Domestic reportable segment, the majority of which was deductible for income tax purposes. We recorded $13 million of transaction costs in fiscal 2019 related to the acquisition within SG&A expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Results of operations from the date of acquisition were included within our Best Buy Health operating segment, Domestic reportable segment and our Services revenue category. The acquisition of GreatCall was not material to the results of our operations.
