Acquisitions

4.    Acquisitions

The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to the below acquisitions at their fair values as of the acquisition date, from a market participant’s perspective. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to value the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date, its estimates and assumptions are subject to refinement. Fair value estimates are based on a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. The judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, can materially impact the Company’s results of operations. The finalization of the assignment of fair values will be completed within one year after the respective acquisition date.

The Company did not present a pro forma information summary for its consolidated results of operations for the acquisitions completed because such results were immaterial.
