CD&R Merger Transaction
On July 25, 2022, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Camelot Parent. CD&R previously held 61.9 million shares of the Company immediately prior to the Merger. As a result of the Merger, CD&R became the indirect owners of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock that CD&R did not already own.

The Merger was accounted for as a business combination. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair market value at the date of the Merger.

The Merger was funded in part with proceeds from the following issuances:
$300.0 million aggregate principal amount under the Side Car Term Loan Facility, due August 2028 (as defined in Note 9 — Debt);
$710.0 million of 8.750% Senior Secured Notes (as defined in Note 9 — Debt) due August 2028;
$564.4 million of cash from the Company;
$464.4 million aggregate principal amount of 2.99% senior payment-in-kind notes due 2029 that were issued and are held by Camelot Return Parent, LLC (“Camelot Return Parent”), an indirect parent of Company; and
$195.0 million from preferred shares of Camelot Return Parent.
Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a guarantor of or is obligated to make any payments related to the 2.99% senior payment-in-kind notes due 2029 held by Camelot Return Parent.

The Company incurred transaction costs of $29.4 million associated with the Merger, of which $0.7 million was recognized in the period from July 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022 and $28.7 million was recognized in the period from January 1, 2022 through July 24, 2022. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income.
During July 2023, the Company completed measurement period adjustments, which were mainly composed of a $291.5 million increase to property, plant and equipment and a $174.7 million decrease to intangible assets. The effect of measurement period adjustments on the estimated fair value elements were reflected as if the adjustments had been made as of the date of the Merger, including a $66.5 million cumulative catch-up to depreciation and amortization expense recorded during the three months ended July 1, 2023 resulting from the update in the fair market value of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. The table below presents the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) line items impacted by the aforementioned adjustments for previously reported periods.

Harvey is included in the Company’s Aperture Solutions reportable segment.

The purchase price allocation below is based upon provisional information and is subject to revision during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as additional information concerning valuations is obtained. During the measurement period, as the Company obtains new information regarding facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have resulted in revised estimated values of those assets or liabilities, the Company will accordingly revise the provisional purchase price allocation, which may include, but are not limited to, adjustments pertaining to intangible assets acquired, property, plant and equipment acquired and tax liabilities assumed.
