In the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company acquired two small technology companies for approximately $36.8 million, net of cash obtained, with the goal of broadening its software capabilities.  The acquisitions were recorded using the acquisition method of accounting.  The Company is currently finalizing the amounts recorded,  including review of working capital; however we do not expect a material change to the balances presented.  The Company expects to complete its purchase price allocation by fiscal year end.  The consolidated condensed statements of income presented include the results of operations of each acquired company since the date of the acquisition.  Pro forma information related to these acquisitions has not been presented because it would not be materially different from amounts reported.  See Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments above, for additional information related to contingent consideration reported in relation to one of the acquisitions.
