(6,406) Deferred credit...................................... (3,000) Deferred income taxes................................ (2,619) Other liabilities.................................... (349) ---------- $51,471 ========== The above allocation of total acquisition costs is preliminary and based upon the estimate of fair values as determined under SFAS No. 141 including inventory, property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangibles and certain liabilities. The Company expects to finalize this allocation in the second quarter of 2006 including final deferred income tax amounts. Based upon the fair value of assets and liabilities compared to the total purchase price, there is an excess of fair value of assets and liabilities over purchase price, or "negative goodwill" of $3,000. Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 141, the Company has recorded the contingent consideration as a deferred credit at March 31, 2006. There was no negative goodwill remaining 4 after recording this deferred credit. When the contingency is resolved and consideration is issued or becomes issuable, any difference between the fair value of the contingent consideration issued or issuable and the deferred credit will be accounted for as follows: o Any excess of the fair value of the contingent consideration issued or issuable over the amount of the deferred credit will be recognized as additional cost of the acquired entity. o Any excess of the deferred credit over the fair value of the consideration issued or issuable will first be recognized as a pro rata reduction of the amounts that were initially assigned to eligible acquired assets, after which any remaining difference would be recognized as an extraordinary gain. Identifiable intangibles as of March 31, 2006 represent the fair market value of alloys, customer contracts and relationships and trade names and trademarks. The fair market values were determined using a discount rate to compute the present value of the income or cost savings of the identifiable intangible assets. A discount rate of 17% was used. The identifiable intangibles of $2,500 consist of alloys of $100, customer contracts and relationships of $2,100 and trade names and trademarks of $300. Each of the identifiable intangibles will be amortized over 20 years. ------------------------------ (1) Reflects the adjustment for the elimination of intercompany sales.
