NOTE 7 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Activision Blizzard, Inc.

On October 13, 2023, we completed our acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (“Activision Blizzard”) for a total purchase price of $75.4 billion, consisting primarily of cash. Activision Blizzard is a leader in game development and an interactive entertainment content publisher. The acquisition will accelerate the growth in our gaming business across mobile, PC, console, and cloud gaming. The financial results of Activision Blizzard have been included in our consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition. Activision Blizzard is reported as part of our More Personal Computing segment.

The purchase price allocation as of the date of acquisition was based on a preliminary valuation and is subject to revision as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information about the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed becomes available. The primary areas that remain preliminary relate to the fair values of goodwill, intangible assets, and income taxes.

The major classes of assets and liabilities to which we have preliminarily allocated the purchase price were as follows:


(In millions)


Cash and cash equivalents	$	12,976
Goodwill		50,989
Intangible assets		21,969
Other assets		2,440
Long-term debt		(2,799	)
Long-term income taxes		(1,868	)
Deferred income taxes		(4,678	)
Other liabilities		(3,623	)


Total purchase price	$	75,406

Goodwill was assigned to our More Personal Computing segment. The goodwill was primarily attributed to increased synergies that are expected to be achieved from the integration of Activision Blizzard. Substantially all of the goodwill is expected to be non-deductible for income tax purposes.

Following are the details of the purchase price allocated to the intangible assets acquired:


(In millions, except average life)	Amount		Weighted Average Life


Marketing-related	$	11,619		24 years
Technology-based		9,689		4 years
Customer-related		661		4 years


Fair value of intangible assets acquired	$	21,969		15 years

Following is the net impact of the Activision Blizzard acquisition on our consolidated income statements since the date of acquisition:


(In millions)	Three Months Ended March 31,			Nine Months Ended March 31,


	2024				2024

Revenue	$	1,969		$	4,053
Operating loss		(353	)		(790	)

The change of Activision Blizzard content from third-party to first-party is reflected in the net impact.

Following are the supplemental consolidated financial results of Microsoft Corporation on an unaudited pro forma basis, as if the acquisition had been consummated on July 1, 2022:


(In millions, except per share amounts)	Three Months Ended March 31,				Nine Months Ended March 31,


	2024		2023			2024		2023

Revenue	$	61,856	$	54,945	$	182,717	$	161,745
Net income		21,931		18,258		66,278		51,536
Diluted earnings per share		2.94		2.45		8.88		6.90

These pro forma results were based on estimates and assumptions, which we believe are reasonable. They are not the results that would have been realized had we been a combined company during the periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of our consolidated results of operations in future periods. The pro forma results include adjustments related to purchase accounting, primarily amortization of intangible assets. Acquisition costs and other nonrecurring charges were immaterial and are included in the earliest period presented.
