Summary of Information on Acquisitions to Company's Financial Statements

The table below summarizes information on the Recipe Chemicals + Instruments GmbH (“Recipe”) acquisition:

 

 

Recipe

Activity of acquired business

Provider of vendor-agnostic therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and other clinical in vitro diagnostic kits for Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry systems utilizing triple-quadrupole time-of flight mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) assays.

Location

Munich, Germany

Acquired interest

69.64%

Business acquired

Outstanding share capital of Recipe and Recipe’s interest in their majority owned subsidiary, WoBau GmbH (“WoBau”).

Redeemable noncontrolling interest – other shareholders

The Company entered into an agreement with the noncontrolling interest holders that provides the Company with the right to purchase, and the noncontrolling interest holders with the right to sell, the remaining 30.36% for cash at a contractually defined redemption value exercisable beginning in 2029. The rights associated with the noncontrolling interests are contingently redeemable at the option of the Company or the noncontrolling interest holder. As redemption of the rights is contingently redeemable at the option of the noncontrolling interest holder, the Company classifies the carrying amount of these rights in the mezzanine section on the consolidated balance sheet, which is presented above the equity section and below liabilities. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is initially measured at fair value and subsequently at the greater of the amount that would be paid if the settlement occurred as of the balance sheet date based on the contractually defined redemption value and its carrying amount adjusted for net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest. Adjustments to the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest are recorded through retained earnings. At the closing date the fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest was $27.2 million.

Additionally, the Company entered into an agreement with the noncontrolling interest holder of WoBau which provides the Company with the right to purchase the remaining
10.1% ownership interest of WoBau for cash at a price to be determined in the future, exercisable in 2029 or later. The rights associated with the noncontrolling interests are contingently redeemable at the option of the Company. At the closing date the fair value was determined to be de minimis.
