Business Combination and Asset Acquisition Business Combination and Asset Acquisition
On April 1, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of Antares Acquisition, LLC (“Antares”), a Dallas Fort Worth based homebuilder, for approximately $239.8 million (subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments) using a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s existing credit facility, which included repayment of approximately $40.2 million of Antares debt. The total assets of Antares included approximately 2,100 lots owned or controlled in the Dallas Fort Worth market. This acquisition was accounted for as a business combination.
In accordance with ASC 805, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquisition of Antares were measured and recognized at fair value as of the date of the acquisition to reflect the purchase price paid. The determination of the final purchase accounting allocation related to the working capital calculations and resulting goodwill are in process as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. Changes in the determination of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as a measurement period adjustment in the period in which they are identified up to one year from the acquisition date.
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 appraiser, 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 assets acquired relate to the Antares trade name and material contracts, which are estimated to have a fair value of $2.0 million and are being amortized over 12 to 18 months. 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 $83.7 million was preliminarily 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 Texas reporting segment in Note 11 – Segment Reporting. The Company incurred transaction related costs of $2.6 million and $3.6 million related to the Antares acquisition during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. These transaction costs are included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company's results of operations include homebuilding revenues from the Antares acquisition of $35.7 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The accompanying results of operations also include pretax loss of $0.8 million from the Antares acquisition during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The pretax loss is inclusive of purchase price accounting and an allocation of corporate general and administrative expenses.
The following is a summary of the preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed (dollars in thousands).
