3. Acquisition

Applied Avionics, Inc.

On August 26, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Applied Avionics, LLC, a Delaware LLC (AAI), which was formerly known as Applied Avionics, Inc. from AAI Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (AAI Parent) for $383.5 million in cash. AAI Parent is owned by certain individual shareholders thereof, including certain members of AAI’s management team. Incorporated in 1968, AAI designs, develops and manufactures highly engineered avionics interface solutions.

The total purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation of the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the transaction date (in thousands):

Inventory was recorded at its estimated fair value, which represented an amount equivalent to estimated selling price less fulfillment costs and a normative selling profit. The increase in fair value of inventory from the acquisition was approximately $1.1 million, which was recognized in cost of goods sold during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Goodwill is primarily attributable to the assembled workforce and expected synergies with other acquired companies, combined with the industry operating expertise of management. These are among the factors that contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of goodwill. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

The results of operations of AAI are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the period subsequent to the completion of the acquisition.

Pro forma financial information

Had the acquisition of AAI occurred as of January 1, 2023, net sales on a pro forma basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 would have been $108.7 million and $210.7 million, respectively. Additionally, income before income taxes on a pro forma basis for the three months ended June 30, 2024 would have been $3.8 million and the loss before income taxes on a pro forma basis for the six months ended June 30, 2024 would have been $0.2 million. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the acquisition been effective January 1, 2023, nor are they intended to be indicative of results that may occur in the future. The underlying pro forma information includes the historical financial results of the Company and the acquired business adjusted for certain items. The pro forma information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 includes $2.4 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of amortization of acquired intangible assets resulting from the preliminary purchase price allocation. Interest expense has been adjusted as though the debt incurred to finance the AAI acquisition had been outstanding at January 1, 2023. The pro forma interest expense adjustment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $9.1 million and

$18.3 million, respectively. The pro forma information does not include the effects of any synergies, cost reduction initiatives or anticipated integration costs related to the acquisition.
