Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
Business Combinations Business Combinations
On January 18, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of Hanover Family Builders, LLC (“Hanover”), a Florida-based homebuilder, for an aggregate cash purchase price, net of working capital adjustments, of $262.6 million. The aggregate purchase price included a pay-off of $69.3 million related to debt held by Hanover and a payment of $15.6 million for land-related deposits. The total assets of Hanover included approximately 20 development projects and 3,800 lots owned or controlled in various stages of development.
In accordance with ASC 805, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquisition of Hanover were measured and recognized at fair value as of the date of the acquisition to reflect the purchase price paid.
Acquired inventories consist of land, land deposits, and work in process inventories. For acquired land and land options, the Company typically utilizes, with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist, a sales comparison approach. For work in process inventories, the Company estimates the fair value based upon the stage of production of each unit and a gross margin that management believes a market participant would require to complete the remaining development and requisite selling efforts. On the acquisition date, the stage of production for each lot ranged from recently started lots to fully completed homes. The intangible asset acquired related to the Hanover trade name, which was estimated to have a fair value of $1.6 million and was amortized over one year. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and relates primarily to the assembled workforce and business synergies. Goodwill of $44.2 million was recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as a result of this transaction and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. The acquired goodwill is included in the Florida reporting segment in Note 11 – Segment Reporting. The Company incurred transaction related costs of $0.6 million related to the Hanover acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
The following is a summary of the allocation of the purchase price based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed (dollars in thousands).
