Acquisitions | Acquisitions Precision Fuel Components, LLC
On February 1, 2023, our Aviation segment acquired Precision Fuel Components, LLC ("Precision Fuel") for a purchase price of $11.7 million. Precision Fuel provides MRO services for engine accessory and fuel systems supporting the business and general aviation ("B&GA") market. Our acquisition of Precision Fuel expanded our MRO capabilities and client base. Precision Fuel operating results are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date. The acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements.
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in net tangible assets of $3.1 million, goodwill of $4.8 million, and contract and customer-related intangible asset of $3.8 million, which is being amortized over a period of five years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred $0.2 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the acquisition of Precision Fuel, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Desser Aerospace
On July 3, 2023, we closed on, and completed, the acquisition of Desser Holding Company LLC ("Desser Aerospace"), a global aftermarket solutions provider of specialty distribution and MRO services. The intent to acquire Desser Aerospace was announced on May 4, 2023. We purchased Desser Aerospace for a preliminary cash consideration of $133.8 million, which included $9.5 million as an estimated net working capital adjustment (subject to post-closing adjustments). Concurrent with the closing of the transaction, we immediately sold, in a separate transaction, Desser Aerospace’s propriety solutions businesses to Loar Group Inc. (“Loar”) for a cash consideration of $31.8 million, which included $1.8 million as an estimated net working capital adjustment (the “Loar Sale”).
The purchase price for Desser Aerospace was allocated on a preliminary basis, among assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, at fair value based on the best available information on the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. The fair values of the non-financial assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, were determined based on preliminary estimates, assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations utilizing established industry valuation techniques. We have not yet finalized the determination of the fair values allocated to various assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, working capital and income taxes. Therefore, the allocation of the total consideration for the acquisition to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, is preliminary until we obtain final information regarding their fair values, which could potentially result in changes to the Desser Aerospace opening balance sheet. Adjustments or changes to goodwill, assets or liabilities remain possible.
The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):
Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Desser Aerospace reflects the strategic advantage of expanding our specialty distribution and MRO services to new customers. The value attributed to goodwill and customer relationships is not fully deductible for income tax purposes. The estimated value attributed to the customer relationship intangible assets is being amortized on a straight-line basis using a weighted average useful life of 8.5 years.
We incurred $1.2 million and $3.0 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the Desser Aerospace acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
The operating results of Desser Aerospace were included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. Our consolidated revenues and operating income include $25.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, from the acquisition of Desser Aerospace. Desser Aerospace's operating income does not include the impact of acquisition-related expenses incurred by VSE Corporation.
The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations for Desser Aerospace and VSE Corporation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are as follows (in thousands):
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented above has been prepared from historical financial statements that have been adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Desser Aerospace as though it had occurred on January 1, 2022 and includes adjustments for intangible asset amortization; interest expense and debt issuance costs on long-term debt; acquisition and other transaction costs; and certain costs allocated from the former parent. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to reflect the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022, nor is it indicative of future operating results.
Honeywell Fuel Control Systems
On September 27, 2023, our Aviation segment entered into an Asset Purchase and License Agreement with Honeywell International Inc., for a purchase price of $105.0 million, to exclusively manufacture, sell, market, distribute, and repair certain Honeywell fuel control systems (the "Honeywell FCS Acquisition"). The purchase price of this acquisition was funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. This agreement expands existing distribution and MRO capabilities supporting certain Honeywell’s fuel control systems and associated subcomponents.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in inventory of $12.0 million, property and equipment of $2.7 million, goodwill of $73.0 million, and contract and customer-related intangible asset of $17.3 million, which is being amortized over a period of 10 years. We have not yet obtained all the information required to complete the purchase price allocation related to this acquisition. We are in the process of finalizing our valuation and the allocation of the total consideration for the acquisition to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired is preliminary until we obtain final information regarding their fair values, which could potentially result in changes in the fair values and an adjustment to goodwill.
We incurred $0.3 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the Honeywell FCS Acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
