Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements continued The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined using the income, cost, market and multiple period excess earnings approaches. The fair value measurements were primarily based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820 other than long-term debt assumed in the acquisition. The income approach was primarily used to value the intangible assets, consisting primarily of acquired technology and customer relationships. The income approach indicates value for an asset based on the present value of cash flow projected to be generated by the asset. Projected cash flow is discounted at a required rate of return that reflects the relative risk of achieving the cash flow and the time value of money. The cost approach, which estimates value by determining the current cost of replacing an asset with another of equivalent economic utility, was used, as appropriate, for property, plant and equipment. The cost to replace a given asset reflects the estimated reproduction or replacement cost for the property, less an allowance for loss in value due to depreciation. The following table summarizes the consideration to Yahoo’s shareholders and the preliminary identification of the assets acquired, including cash acquired of $0.2 billion, and liabilities assumed as of the close of the acquisition, as well as the fair value at the acquisition date of Yahoo’s noncontrolling interests: (dollars in millions) As of June 13, 2017 Measurement- period adjustments (1) As of December 31, 2017 Cash payment to Yahoo’s equity holders $ 4,723 $ (50) $ 4,673 Estimated liabilities to be paid 38 — 38 Total consideration $ 4,761 $ (50) $ 4,711 Assets acquired: Goodwill $ 874 $ 1,055 $ 1,929 Intangible assets subject to amortization 2,586 (713) 1,873 Property, plant, and equipment 1,796 9 1,805 Other 1,362 (30) 1,332 Total assets acquired 6,618 321 6,939 Liabilities assumed: Total liabilities assumed 1,824 354 2,178 Net assets acquired: 4,794 (33) 4,761 Noncontrolling interest (33) (17) (50) Total consideration $ 4,761 $ (50) $ 4,711 (1) Adjustments to preliminary fair value measurements to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. On the closing date of the Transaction, each unvested and outstanding Yahoo restricted stock unit award that was held by an employee who became an employee of Verizon was replaced with a Verizon restricted stock unit award, which is generally payable in cash upon the applicable vesting date. The value of those outstanding restricted stock units on the acquisition date was approximately $1.0 billion. Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the net assets acquired. The goodwill is primarily attributable to increased synergies that are expected to be achieved from the integration of Yahoo’s operating business into our Media business. The preliminary goodwill related to this acquisition is included within Corporate and other. See Note 3 for additional information. The consolidated financial statements include the results of Yahoo’s operating business from the date the acquisition closed. If the acquisition of Yahoo’s operating business had been completed as of January 1, 2016, the results of operations of Verizon would not have been significantly different than our previously reported results of operations. Acquisition and Integration Related Charges In connection with the Yahoo Transaction, we recognized $0.8 billion of acquisition and integration related charges during the year ended December 31, 2017, of which $0.5 billion, $0.1 billion and $0.2 billion related to Severance, Transaction costs and Integration costs, respectively. These charges were recorded in Selling, general and administrative expense on our consolidated statements of income. Fleetmatics Group PLC In July 2016, we entered into an agreement to acquire Fleetmatics Group PLC, a public limited company incorporated in Ireland (Fleetmatics). Fleetmatics was a leading global provider of fleet and mobile workforce management solutions. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we acquired Fleetmatics for $60.00 per ordinary share in cash. The aggregate merger consideration was approximately $2.5 billion, including cash acquired of $0.1 billion. We completed the acquisition on November 7, 2016. As a result of the transaction, Fleetmatics became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Verizon. The consolidated financial statements include the results of Fleetmatics’ operations from the date the acquisition closed. Had this acquisition been completed on January 1, 2016 or 2015, the results of operations of Verizon would not have been significantly different than our previously reported results of operations. Upon closing, we recorded approximately $1.4 billion of goodwill and $1.1 billion of other intangibles. 2017 Annual Report | Verizon Communications Inc. and Subsidiaries 65
