BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS | BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS On August 23, 2024, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of LifeLabs Inc. and all of the partnership interests of BPC Lab Finance LP (collectively, "LifeLabs") in an all-cash transaction for approximately CAN $1.35 billion (approximately USD $1 billion), net of cash acquired. LifeLabs provides laboratory diagnostic information and digital health connectivity systems in Canada. The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a preliminary purchase price allocation. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company revised its preliminary purchase price allocation and recorded a $9 million increase to deferred income tax assets and a corresponding decrease to goodwill. The adjustment did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations. The preliminary purchase price allocation is based upon a preliminary valuation and the Company's estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period as the valuation is finalized. The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information reflects the consolidated statement of operations of the Company as if the acquisition of LifeLabs had occurred as of January 1, 2023. The pro forma information includes adjustments primarily related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets, interest expense associated with debt of LifeLabs which was extinguished prior to the acquisition, interest expense associated with senior notes issued to fund the acquisition, the impact on depreciation expense of recording acquired property, plant and equipment at fair value, and transaction costs related to the LifeLabs acquisition. The pro forma combined financial information does not include the estimated annual synergies expected to be realized upon completion of the integration of LifeLabs and therefore is not indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date (in millions, except per share data).
During February 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire select assets of Fresenius Medical Care's wholly-owned Spectra Laboratories, a leading provider of renal-specific laboratory testing services in the U.S. The transaction, which is expected to close in the second half of 2025, remains subject to customary closing conditions. For details regarding the Company's 2024 acquisitions, see Note 6 to the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
