Acquisitions Acquisitions
 
The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” in which assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. The operating results of the acquired business are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of the acquisition.

Basler Electric

On December 11, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Basler Electric Company ("Basler"). Basler is a leading designer and manufacturer of innovative electrical control and protection solutions for high-growth industrial markets including grid and utility infrastructure, power generation and data center. At the time of acquisition, Basler had annualized sales of approximately $130 million. The business is reported within the Company’s Industrial segment. The purchase price for Basler was $361.7 million and is subject to a working capital adjustment.

The Company financed the transaction with cash on hand. The total purchase consideration of $352.8 million, net of cash acquired, has been allocated, on a preliminary basis, based on estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purchase price allocation is preliminary because the determination of the fair value of the net assets acquired, including the third-party valuation of acquired tangible assets, is not yet finalized. Thus, the preliminary measurements of fair value set forth in the table below are subject to change during the measurement period as valuations are finalized. The Company expects to finalize the valuation and complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable.

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Basler acquisition:

(in thousands)Purchase Price
Allocation
Total purchase consideration: 
Cash, net of cash acquired$352,809 
Allocation of consideration to assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Trade receivables, net14,739 
Inventories20,703 
Other current assets4,152 
Property, plant, and equipment21,532 
Intangible assets145,000 
Goodwill160,977 
Other long-term assets4,146 
Current liabilities(15,690)
Other long-term liabilities(2,750)
$352,809 

All Basler assets and liabilities were recorded in the Industrial segment and are primarily reflected in the North America geographic area. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition consists largely of the Company’s expected future product sales and synergies from combining Basler’s products and technology with the Company’s existing Industrial products portfolio. Goodwill resulting from the Basler acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

During the three months ended March 28, 2026, the Company made adjustments to reduce the fair value of intangible assets of $5.0 million, current liabilities of $3.2 million, inventories of $2.6 million, trade receivables of $2.1 million, property, plant, and equipment of $1.7 million, other long-term assets of $1.6 million, and increase in other current assets of $1.2 million. As a result of these adjustments, goodwill was increased by $8.6 million. The Company paid $2.5 million of indebtedness as part of the purchase consideration during the three months ended March 28, 2026.

As required by purchase accounting guidance, the Company recorded a $6.4 million step-up of inventory to its fair value as of the acquisition date based on the preliminary valuation. The step-up is being amortized as a non-cash charge to cost of goods sold during the fourth quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2026, as the acquired inventory is sold, and reflected as other non-segment costs. The Company recognized a non-cash charge of $5.4 million to cost of goods sold during the three months ended March 28, 2026. There is no future remaining amortization of this step-up of inventory as of March 28, 2026.
For the three months ended March 28, 2026, the Company recorded $0.5 million legal and professional fees related to the Basler acquisition recognized as Selling, general, and administrative expenses and reflected as other non-segment costs. A total of $3.0 million of legal and professional fees related to the Basler acquisition was recognized since 2025. These costs were reflected as other non-segment costs.

Dortmund Fab

On December 31, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of a 200mm wafer fab located in Dortmund, Germany (“Dortmund Fab”) from Elmos Semiconductor SE. The total purchase price for the Dortmund Fab was approximately €94 million, of which a €37.2 million down payment (approximately $40.5 million) was paid in the third quarter of 2023 after regulatory approvals, and €56.7 million (approximately $58.8 million) was paid at closing. The business is reported in the Electronics-Semiconductor business within the Company’s Electronics segment.

The acquisition was funded with cash on hand. The total purchase consideration of $95.9 million, net of cash acquired, has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as of the completion of the acquisition, based on estimated fair values.

The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Dortmund Fab acquisition:

Other long-term assets8,579 
Current liabilities(7,464)
Other long-term liabilities(15,289)
 $95,942 

All Dortmund Fab assets and liabilities were recorded in the Electronics segment and are primarily reflected in the Europe geographic area. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition consists largely of the Company’s expected future product sales and synergies from combining Dortmund Fab’s products and technology with the Company’s existing semiconductor products portfolio. Goodwill resulting from the Dortmund Fab acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

As required by purchase accounting guidance, the Company recorded a $0.5 million step-down of inventory to its fair value as of the acquisition date based on the valuation. The step-down was fully amortized as a non-cash credit to cost of sales during the first fiscal quarter of 2025 as the acquired inventory was sold and reflected as other non-segment costs.

During the three months ended March 29, 2025, the Company did not incur any legal and professional fees related to the Dortmund Fab acquisition recognized as Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. A total of $3.5 million of legal and professional fees related to the Dortmund Fab acquisition was recognized since 2023. These costs were reflected as other non-segment costs.
