The preliminary valuation of intangible assets consists of $241.4 million of assets subject to amortization with an estimated average life of approximately seven years. The purchase price, net of cash acquired, was allocated based on the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition with the excess purchase price of $363.4 million recorded as goodwill, all of which was allocated to the Vocational segment. The goodwill is primarily the result of expected synergies, including combining the highly engineered products of AeroTech with the Company's portfolio and technology ecosystem, new product innovations and operational synergies. The Company estimates that the majority of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. Due to the timing of the acquisition and the nature of the net assets acquired, the purchase price allocations are preliminary at September 30, 2023 and may be subsequently adjusted to reflect the finalization of appraisals and other valuation studies. The Company recorded $11.6 million and $12.9 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents the supplemental consolidated results of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, on an unaudited pro-forma basis as if the acquisition of AeroTech had been completed on January 1, 2022 (in millions). The primary adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro-forma information related to (1) increase in interest expense for debt used to fund the acquisition and lower interest income due to less cash on hand available to be invested, (2) changes related to purchase accounting primarily related to amortization of purchased intangible assets recorded in conjunction with the acquisition and amortization of the inventory fair value step-up recorded as of the acquisition date, and (3) removal of transaction costs related to the acquisition from 2023 (and included in 2022). Adjustments to net income have been reflected net of income tax effects. The unaudited pro forma information does not include any anticipated cost savings or other effects of future integration efforts and does not purport to be indicative of results that actually would have been achieved if the operations were combined during the periods presented and is not intended to be a projection. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect any potential cost savings, operating efficiencies, debt pay down, financial synergies or other strategic benefits as a result of the acquisition or any restructuring costs to achieve those benefits.
