3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of gaBRIEL Performance Products

On January 15, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Gabriel Performance Products, a North American specialty chemical manufacturer of specialty additives and epoxy curing agents for the coatings, adhesives, sealants and composite end-markets (“Gabriel Acquisition”), from funds affiliated with Audax Private Equity in an all-cash transaction of approximately $251 million, subject to customary closing adjustments. The purchase price was funded from available liquidity, and the acquired business is being integrated into our Advanced Materials segment. Transaction costs related to this acquisition were approximately $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and were recorded in other operating income, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

We accounted for the Gabriel Acquisition using the acquisition method. As such, we analyzed the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The preliminary allocation of acquisition cost to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

The acquisition cost allocation is preliminary pending final determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including final valuation of certain liabilities, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, leases and deferred taxes. Intangible assets acquired included in this preliminary allocation consist primarily of trademarks, technology and trade secrets. The applicable amortization periods are still being assessed. For purposes of this preliminary allocation of fair value, we have assigned any excess of the acquisition cost over the estimated preliminary fair value to goodwill. The estimated goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to projected future profitable growth in our Advanced Materials specialty portfolio and synergies. We expect that a portion of the estimated goodwill arising from the acquisition will be deductible for income tax purposes, but the amount is still being assessed. It is possible that material changes to this preliminary allocation of acquisition cost could occur.

The acquired business had revenues and net income of $51 million and $8 million, respectively, for the period from the date of acquisition to June 30, 2021.

The acquired business was integrated into our Advanced Materials segment.

The allocation of acquisition cost to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

​

Intangible assets acquired consist primarily of trademarks, trade secrets and customer relationships, which are predominantly being amortized over a period of 20 years.

On February 20, 2020, we completed our acquisition of Icynene-Lapolla, a leading North American manufacturer and distributor of spray polyurethane foam insulation systems for residential and commercial applications (“Icynene-Lapolla Acquisition”).

​

As a result of the final valuation of the assets and liabilities, reallocations were made during the first quarter of 2021 in certain current asset and liability, property, plant and equipment, intangible asset, goodwill, other noncurrent assets and deferred tax balances. Intangible assets acquired consist primarily of trademarks, trade secrets and customer relationships, which are predominantly being amortized over a period of 10 years. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to projected future profitable growth, penetration into downstream markets and synergies. None of the goodwill arising from the acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes.
