The Company’s cost to acquire these acquisitions was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values as of the date of the completion of the acquisition. The differences between the fair value of the consideration paid and the estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded as goodwill. The fair value of the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities for TransponderTech and DD-Scientific is provisional pending finalization of the Company’s acquisition accounting, including the measurement of tax basis in certain jurisdictions and the resulting deferred taxes that might arise from book and tax basis differences, if any. Pro forma results of operations, the revenue and net income subsequent to the acquisition date, and a more detailed breakout of the major classes of assets and liabilities acquired for these acquisitions have not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions both individually and in the aggregate were not material to the Company’s financial results. The significant factors that resulted in recognition of goodwill for the 2026 and 2025 acquisitions included the acquired businesses’ market positions, growth opportunities in the markets in which they operate, experienced work force and established operating infrastructures. The results of these acquisitions have been included in Teledyne’s results since the dates of their respective acquisition.
