Acquisitions ACQUISITIONS
    On May 2, 2022, the Company acquired JCA Industries, Inc. (“JCA”) for 63.0 million Canadian dollars (or approximately $49.2 million as of May 2, 2022). JCA is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and specializes in the design of electronic systems and software development to automate and control agricultural equipment. The Company is in the process of determining the allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

    On January 1, 2022, the Company acquired Appareo Systems, LLC (“Appareo”) for approximately $61.9 million, net of approximately $0.5 million of cash. As a result of the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in IAS, the Company's previous operating joint venture with Appareo, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $3.4 million on the remeasurement of the previously held equity interest within “Other expense, net” in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of the previously held 50% interest in the joint venture as of the acquisition date was approximately $11.2 million. Appareo is headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota and offers engineering, manufacturing, and technology for end-to-end product development. The Company allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquired net assets primarily consisted of accounts receivable, inventories, other current and noncurrent assets, assets held for sale, lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current and noncurrent liabilities, property, plant and equipment, as well as customer relationship, technology, non-competition agreements and trademark identifiable intangible assets. The Company recorded approximately $20.5 million of goodwill associated with the acquisition. The results of operations of Appareo have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and from the date of acquisition. The associated goodwill has been included in the Company’s North America geographical reportable segment. Proforma financial information related to the acquisition of Appareo was not material to the Company’s results of operations.

    The preliminary estimate of acquired identifiable intangible assets of Appareo as of the date of the acquisition are summarized in the following table (in millions):
