Acquisitions and Divestitures Acquisitions and Divestitures
All of the Company’s acquisitions of businesses have been accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired companies, after adjustments to reflect the fair values assigned to the assets and liabilities, have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets from their respective dates of acquisition. The results of operations of businesses acquired have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income since their respective dates of acquisition. Supplemental pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements individually or in the aggregate.
The Company makes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for each acquisition as of the acquisition date based on its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. These nonrecurring fair value measurements are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. As the Company continues to obtain additional information, primarily related to the valuations of these assets and liabilities, and continues to integrate the newly acquired business, the Company will refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price through the completion of the measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. Only items that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment to the purchase price allocation. Goodwill recognized reflects the strategic fit, revenue and earnings growth potential of the acquired business and its synergies with existing IDEX businesses.

2025 Acquisitions

Micro-LAM, Inc.

On July 29, 2025, the Company acquired Micro-LAM, Inc. (“Micro-LAM”) in a stock acquisition. Micro-LAM is an advanced optics manufacturer of laser-assisted machining, ultra-precision diamond tools and custom optics that is complementary to the Company’s Optics Technologies solutions. Headquartered in Portage, Michigan, Micro-LAM operates in the Company’s Scientific Fluidics & Optics reporting unit within the Health & Science Technologies segment. Micro-LAM was acquired for cash consideration of $80.4 million, net of cash acquired of $0.3 million, plus a potential earnout of up to $12.0 million of additional cash consideration based upon the achievement of certain financial performance targets over a two-year period. Total consideration of $81.6 million includes the fair value of the potential earnout as of the acquisition date of $1.2 million. For additional discussion of the earnout valuation, refer to Note 9, “Fair Value Measurements.” The acquisition was funded using additional borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Facility (as defined in Note 8, “Borrowings”). Goodwill and intangible assets recognized as part of this transaction were $37.6 million and $44.6 million, respectively. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
