ACQUISITION AND RELATED PARTY ITEMS | ACQUISITIONS AND RELATED PARTY ITEMS VetZ Acquisition On January 3, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of the equity of VetZ GmbH (“VetZ”), a European leader in veterinary practice information management software solutions (“PIMS”), for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $36.2 million. The purchase price consisted of approximately $32.4 million in cash, including a general indemnity holdback of approximately $1.4 million to be released within 18 months of closing, a net working capital adjustment of $0.2 million, and contingent consideration as described below. As additional consideration for the acquisition, the Company agreed to a contingent earn-out of $15.5 million in Heska stock, which will be issued in tranches based on future financial and non-financial milestones. The fair value of the contingent consideration as of the acquisition date was approximately $3.9 million, determined using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. The contingent consideration was determined to be classified as equity, and therefore is not subsequently remeasured each reporting period and subsequent settlement of the obligation will be accounted for within equity. The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the identifiable net assets, resulting in goodwill of $22.6 million, all of which is attributable to our International segment. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition consists of new product offerings from entering the PIMS market. All of the goodwill is tax deductible for purposes of calculating Controlled Foreign Corporation tested income, which may result in a decrease to the Company's future U.S. federal tax liability. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations . As such, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of January 3, 2022. The total purchase consideration is subject to customary working capital adjustments.

LLC ("Biotech"), a developer of rapid assay diagnostic testing, in exchange for approximately $16.3 million in cash. As part of the purchase, Heska entered into put and call options in order to purchase the remaining 35% ownership in future years. The counterparty, Chinta Lamichhane, DVM, Ph.D, maintains an interest in Biotech and is an employee of the Company, thus commencing a related party relationship. Aside from the acquisition described herein, there were no financial or non-financial transactions between the Company and the counterparty. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company entered into various put and call options which are classified on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Notes Payable. The written put options can be exercised after June 30, 2024, at a valuation identical to the initial purchase price. The written call options can be exercised at any time prior to June 30, 2026, at an amount equal to two times the initial valuation or after June 30, 2026, at a valuation identical to the initial purchase price. Additionally, if certain product development milestones are met, the shares may be bought in various tranches at two times the initial valuation. The Company evaluated the put and call options embedded in the shares representing the non-controlling interest under the guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and determined the instrument met the criteria to be recorded as a liability because the fixed price of the put and call options are identical starting after June 30, 2026. As a result, the Company recorded the transaction as a financing arrangement of the purchase of the non-controlling interest, and will record 100% of the income and loss of Biotech in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income.
