3. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

On January 27, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of Schultes Precision Manufacturing, Inc. ("Schultes"), an Illinois corporation. Schultes is a highly trusted specialist in manufacturing precision machined components and assemblies for customers requiring very tight tolerances, superior quality and exceptional value-added manufacturing processes. Currently serving the hydraulic, aerospace, communication, food services, medical device and dental industries, Schultes brings the manufacturing quality, reliability and responsiveness critical to its customers’ success. The results of Schultes' operations are reported in the Company’s Hydraulics segment and have been included in the Consolidated, Unaudited Financial Statements since the date of acquisition.

Initial cash consideration paid at closing for Schultes, net of cash acquired, totaled $84.7. Cash consideration paid at closing was funded with additional borrowings on the Company’s credit facility.

On May 26, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of i3 Product Development, Inc. (“i3”), a Wisconsin corporation. i3 is a custom engineering services firm with expertise in electronics, mechanical, industrial, embedded and software engineering. i3's solutions are used across many sectors, including medical, off-highway, recreational and commercial marine, power sports, health and wellness, agriculture, consumer goods, industrial, sports and fitness. We anticipate that i3 will equip Helios with significant value-added professional services capabilities to provide customization to Helios platforms and to develop greenfield solutions. The results of i3's operations are reported in the Company’s Electronics segment and have been included in the Consolidated, Unaudited Financial Statements since the date of acquisition.

Initial consideration paid at closing for i3, net of cash acquired, totaled $44.0, consisting of 370,276 shares of the Company's common stock, issued in a private placement to the previous owners of i3, and a cash payment of $25.4. Total consideration for the acquisition is subject to a post-closing adjustment in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement. The cash consideration paid at closing was funded with additional borrowings on the Company’s credit facility.

In connection with these acquisitions, the Company recorded $37.7 of goodwill, $48.0 of other identifiable intangible assets, $34.2 of property, plant and equipment and $8.8 of other net assets. The intangible assets include customer relationships of $36.4 (15.7 year weighted average useful life), trade names and brands of $7.6 (14.0 year weighted average useful life), technology of $3.3 (5.0 year weighted average useful life) and sales order backlog of $0.7 (less than one year weighted average useful life).

The purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The fair value of identified intangible assets acquired was based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the acquisitions. The purchase price allocation for i3 is preliminary, pending post-closing adjustments, final intangibles valuation and tax-related adjustments, and may be revised during the remainder of the measurement period (which will not exceed 12 months from the acquisition dates). Any such revisions or changes to the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed could be material.

Pro forma results of operations and the revenue and net income subsequent to the acquisition dates have not been presented because the effects of the acquisitions, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to the Company's financial results.
