. Acquisition of Businesses
 
TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business
 
On August 29, 2016, the company acquired certain assets of select businesses (the “TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business”) of ON Semiconductor Corporation for $104.0 million. The company funded the acquisition with available cash and proceeds from its credit facility
. The acquired business, which is included in the Electronics segment,
consists of a product portfolio that includes transient voltage suppression (TVS) diodes, switching thyristors and insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT) for automotive ignition applications. The acquisition expands the company’s offerings in power semiconductor applications as well as increases its presence in the automotive electronics market. The TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business products have strong synergies with the company’s existing circuit protection business, will strengthen its channel partnerships and customer engagement, and expand its power semiconductor portfolio.
 
The following table represents the preliminary allocation of the total consideration to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition of the TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business based on the company’s preliminary estimate of their respective fair values at the acquisition date (in thousands):
 
Total purchase consideration:
       
Cash
  $ 104,000  
Preliminary allocation of consideration to assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
       
Current assets, net
    4,616  
Customer relationships
    31,650  
Patented and unpatented technologies
    10,250  
Non-compete agreement
    2,500  
Goodwill
    54,984  
    $ 104,000  
 
 
All the TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business goodwill and other assets were recorded in the Electronics segment and are reflected in the Americas and Europe geographic areas. The customer relationships are preliminarily being amortized over 13.5 years. The patented and unpatented technologies are preliminarily being amortized over 6-8.5 years. The non-compete agreement is preliminarily being amortized over 4 years. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition consists largely of the company’s expected future product sales and synergies from combining the TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business products with the company’s existing
power semiconductor product portfolio. A portion of goodwill for the above acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
 
As required by purchase accounting rules, the company recorded a $0.5 million step-up of inventory to its fair value as of the acquisition date based on the preliminary valuation. $0.3 million of the step-up was amortized as a non-cash charge to cost of goods sold during the third quarter of 2016, as the acquired inventory was sold, and reflected as other non-segment costs.
 
Included in the company’s consolidated statements of net income for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016 are net sales of approximately $5.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively, since the August 29, 2016 acquisition of the TVS Diode/Thyristor/IGBT business
.

PolySwitch
 
On March 25, 2016, the company acquired 100% of the circuit protection business (“PolySwitch”) of TE Connectivity Ltd. for $348.0 million, net of acquired cash and after settlement of certain post-closing adjustments.
At October 1, 2016, $342.3 million of the $348.0 million purchase price has been paid and financed through a mixture of cash on hand and borrowings under the company’s revolving credit facility, with the remaining consideration expected to be paid by the 2
nd
