M – Acquisitions

On June 3, 2024, the Company completed its business combination of Texas Auto Center (“TAC”), which includes two dealership locations in Austin and San Marcos, Texas.

The total purchase price of the TAC acquisition was $13.5 million, which included $3.5 million of contingent consideration. The structure of the transaction is consistent with prior transactions whereby the Company did not acquire existing finance receivables and the seller may receive a performance-based earn-out in the future ranging from zero to a maximum of $15 million based on cumulative pre-tax income.

The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair values of the net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill, all of which is deductible for tax purposes and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from anticipated synergies and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Company recorded the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the TAC acquisition, which resulted in the recognition of: (1) net working capital assumed of $100,000, (2) inventory of $5 million, (3) gross right use of asset and lease liability of $7.4 million and (4) goodwill of $8.5 million.
