| Business Combinations and Acquisitions | Business Combinations and Acquisitions
The Company continually evaluates potential acquisitions that strategically fit with the Company’s existing portfolio. On November 1, 2023, Mirion closed the acquisition of ec2 Software Solutions, LLC and NUMA LLC (collectively "ec2") with a purchase price of $31.4 million in a taxable transaction pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated November 1, 2023 between Mirion and ec2. As part of the Mirion Medical segment, ec2 will complement the Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging portfolio of Capintec. The total business enterprise value acquired for the ec2 acquisition was comprised of $14.5 million of intangible assets related to technology, trade name, and customer list, $17.4 million of goodwill and $0.5 million of liabilities mainly related to deferred revenue.
Measurement period adjustments to the previously disclosed preliminary fair value of net assets related to ec2 were recorded in 2024, resulting in a $0.6 million net increase in goodwill, primarily due to additional consideration of $1.0 million (final net working capital adjustment) and a $0.3 million net increase in intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The estimated fair values of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition are provisional and may be revised as a result of additional information obtained during the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date, including but not limited to deferred revenue balances and the valuation of tax accounts.
Transaction costs related to ec2 were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
All acquisitions are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, and the related assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value. The Company makes an initial allocation of the purchase price at the date of acquisition based upon its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company obtains the information used for the purchase price allocation during due diligence and through other sources. In the months after closing, as the Company obtains additional information about the acquired assets and liabilities, including through tangible and intangible asset appraisals, and learns more about the newly acquired business, it is able to refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. The fair values of acquired intangibles are determined based on estimates and assumptions that are deemed reasonable by the Company. Significant assumptions include the discount rates and certain assumptions that form the basis of the forecasted results of the acquired business including revenue, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), and growth rates. These assumptions are forward looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. Only facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.
Purchases of acquired businesses resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from the other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill is not amortized but some portion may be deductible for income tax purposes. This goodwill recorded includes the following:
• The expected synergies and other benefits that we believe will result from combining the operations of the acquired business with the operations of Mirion;
• Any intangible assets that did not qualify for separate recognition, as well as future, yet unidentified projects and products;
• The value of the existing business as an assembled collection of net assets versus if the Company had acquired all of the net assets separately.
