Note 3.Acquisitions

On December 10, 2014, the Company entered into the Share Purchase Agreement (the "Sterimedix Acquisition Agreement") with shareholders (the "Sellers") of Sterimedix Limited ("Sterimedix"), a private manufacturer of cannulas, needles and other disposable products for ophthalmic and aesthetic procedures incorporated in England and Wales.  Pursuant to the Sterimedix Acquisition Agreement, the Company purchased all of the outstanding share capital of Sterimedix for net cash consideration of $13.2 million (the "Sterimedix Acquisition") plus future contingent consideration in the form of an earn-out (see discussion below).

Pursuant to the Sterimedix Acquisition Agreement, the Sellers are entitled to receive earn-out payments, calculated as 136.7% of the amount by which Sterimedix’s defined gross profit exceeds the following amounts for each annual period:

(i)
£3,190,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015;
(ii)
£3,767,500 for the year ended December 31, 2016; and
(iii)
£4,400,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017.
 
The fair value of the future earn out payments recorded at the acquisition date was $2.8 million, determined using a discounted cash flow methodology on probability-weighted expected cash flows.  These cash flows resulted in a range of estimated payouts of $0 to $5.9 million over the three-year period.   The fair value of the obligation is based on the Company’s estimates of future cash flows, which are contingent upon a number of assumptions, particularly product demand and pricing.   Any future change required to the fair value of the contingent acquisition liability will be reflected in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

The Company has agreed not to transfer the Sterimedix shares for a period of one year and has also agreed after the one-year period, (i) to negotiate in good faith the assumption of the earn-out payments with the proposed transferee; (ii) at the discretion of the Company, to make modified earn-out payments to the Sellers as set forth in the Agreement and transfer certain Sterimedix assets to the Sellers upon arms' length negotiations; or (iii) if option (i) does not occur and option (ii) is not exercised, to remain obligated to pay the earn-out payments.

The amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 10, 2014 are set forth below at the exchange rate in effect at that date (dollars in thousands):
