During the nine months ended January 31, 2024, the Company acquired 105 stores through a variety of transactions, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the individual asset purchase agreements. The majority of these acquisitions meet the criteria to be considered business combinations. The purchase price was paid in cash upon closing using available cash on hand.

The acquisitions were recorded in the financial statements by allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired, including intangible assets, and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date as determined by third party appraisals or internal estimates. Fair values were determined using Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. The excess of the cost of the acquisition over the net amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill if the acquisition is considered to be a business combination. Goodwill of $31,783 was recognized as the result of the current period acquisitions and is primarily attributable to the location of the stores in relation to our footprint and expected synergies. Almost all of the goodwill associated with these transactions will be deductible for income tax purposes over 15 years.

Acquisition-related transaction costs are recognized as period costs as incurred. The Company incurred total acquisition-related transaction costs of $4,990 and $8,043 for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2024, respectively, which are recorded within operating expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

We utilized a third-party valuation specialist to assist in valuing the majority of other assets, leases and property and equipment acquired.
