Acquisition | Acquisitions Battery Acquisition - On January 2, 2019, the Company completed the Battery Acquisition with a contractual purchase price of $2,000.0 , subject to certain purchase price adjustments. The acquisition expanded our battery portfolio globally with the addition of a strong value brand. The initial cash paid after contractual and estimated working capital adjustments was $1,956.2 . Included in the above amount is $450.0 of cash consideration that has initially been allocated to the Divestment business discussed below. Energizer funded the Battery Acquisition through net proceeds from the issuance of senior notes, term loans and cash on hand. See Note 10, Debt, for additional discussion on the senior notes and term loans issued. Success fees of $13.0 were earned by financial advisers in January 2019 after closing the acquisition. This was in addition to the $2.0 paid in January 2018 for services rendered on the transaction. On December 11, 2018, the European Commission approved the acquisition of the Acquired Battery Business conditioned on the divestiture of the Varta consumer battery, chargers, portable power and portable lighting business in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region (EMEA), including manufacturing and distribution facilities in Germany. Energizer will retain the rights to the Varta brand in Latin America and Asia Pacific, as well as Spectrum’s global Rayovac branded consumer and hearing aid batteries business. Energizer began the formal divestiture process immediately after close and expects to complete the divestiture in the beginning of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The assets and liabilities associated with this business have been reported as held or sale both on the preliminary purchase price allocation and the Consolidated (Condensed) Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2019. The Battery Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting which requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. We have calculated fair values of assets and liabilities acquired for the Battery Acquisition based on our preliminary valuation analysis. Certain preliminary values, including Inventory, Property, plant and equipment, Intangible assets, Deferred taxes and the resultant Goodwill, are not yet finalized pending the final purchase price allocation and are subject to change as additional information is obtained and the final valuation is completed. Preliminary estimates will be finalized within one year of the date of acquisition. For purposes of the allocation, the Company determined a preliminary fair value adjustment for inventory based on the estimated selling price of finished goods on hand at the closing date less the sum of (a) costs of disposal and (b) a reasonable profit allowance for the selling effort of the acquiring entity. The preliminary fair value adjustment for the inventory of $14.2 was recorded as expense to Cost of products sold in the second quarter 2019 as that inventory was sold. The fair values of the Battery Acquisition's Property, plant and equipment were estimated using the market approach for land and variations of the cost approach for the buildings and equipment. The fair values of the Battery Acquisition's identifiable intangible assets were estimated using variations of the income approach such as the relief from royalty method and the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company is still evaluating the current and deferred tax implications and the accounting implications of the asset versus stock deal by legal jurisdiction, as well as the varying statutory tax rates across the global business. The Company maintained the deferred balances from the carrying amount of the Acquired Battery Business as of January 2, 2019 until that evaluation is completed. Preliminary step ups on the deferred tax liabilities have been recorded based on the valuation of the Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets. Assets held for sale include the valuation of Inventory, Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets consistent with the valuation methods discussed above. The preliminary fair value adjustment for the inventory of $11.2 was recorded as expense in the results from discontinued operations in the second quarter 2019 as that inventory was sold. A preliminary estimate of goodwill has also been allocated to the Assets held for sale. The following table outlines the preliminary purchase price allocation as of the date of acquisition: Cash and cash equivalents $ 37.8 Trade receivables 60.6 Inventories 81.0 Other current assets 21.0 Assets held for sale 855.0 Property, plant and equipment, net 138.5 Goodwill 498.6 Other intangible assets, net 747.5 Other assets 14.1 Current portion of capital leases (1.2 ) Accounts payable (40.8 ) Other current liabilities (22.8 ) Long-term debt (14.7 ) Liabilities held for sale (405.0 ) Other liabilities (13.4 ) Net assets acquired $ 1,956.2 The table below outlines the purchased identifiable intangible assets of $747.5 : Total Weighted Average Useful Lives Trade names $ 513.0 Indefinite Proprietary technology 61.0 5.9 Customer relationships 173.5 15.0 Total Other intangible assets, net $ 747.5 Estimated asset valuations and assumed liabilities, including deferred income taxes, may be adjusted in subsequent filings as final purchase price allocations are completed. Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired will be allocated to residual goodwill. The goodwill acquired in this acquisition is attributable to the workforce of the acquired business and the synergies expected to arise with this transaction through network optimization, selling, general and administrative reductions and procurement efficiencies. The assignment of goodwill to our reportable segments, as well as the allocation to Assets held for sale, is not currently complete. The goodwill associated with this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes. Auto Care Acquisition - On November 15, 2018, Energizer entered into a definitive acquisition agreement to acquire Spectrum’s global auto care business, including the Armor All, STP, and A/C PRO brands for a contractual purchase price of $1,250.0 , subject to certain purchase price adjustments. The contractual purchase price was comprised of $937.5 in cash and $312.5 of newly-issued Energizer common stock to Spectrum. The acquisition allowed for the Company to become a global leader in the auto care market and added automotive performance and air conditioning recharge products to its auto care portfolio. On January 28, 2019, the Company completed the Auto Care Acquisition. The initial cash paid after contractual and estimated working capital adjustments was $938.7 . Per the acquisition agreement, the equity consideration to Spectrum was determined by dividing the contractually committed common stock amount of $312.5 by the volume weighted average sales price (VWAP) per share of the Company's common stock for the 10 consecutive trading days immediately preceding November 15, 2018, subject to certain potential adjustments under such agreement. As a result, 5.3 million shares were issued to Spectrum on January 28, 2019. The equity consideration paid to Spectrum was fair valued at $240.5 based on the 5.3 million shares at the Energizer closing stock price of $45.55 on January 28, 2019. In addition, per the terms of the agreement, additional consideration of $36.8 was included in the above cash consideration paid to Spectrum based on the difference between the 10 day VWAP and the 20 day VWAP beginning with the 10th trading day immediately preceding November 15, 2018. The Company funded a portion of the cash consideration of the Auto Care Acquisition with the issuance of new senior notes and the issuance of common stock and Series A mandatory convertible preferred stock in January 2019. Refer to Note 10, Debt, and Note 12, Shareholders' Equity, for further information on the debt and equity issuances, respectively. Success fees of $6.0 were earned by a financial adviser in January 2019 after closing the acquisition. This was in addition to the $2.0 earned in November 2018 for services rendered on the transaction.

The fair values of the Auto Care Acquisition's Property, plant and equipment were estimated using variations of the cost approach for the building and equipment. The fair values of the Auto Care Acquisition's identifiable intangible assets were estimated using variations of the income approach such as the relief from royalty method and the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company is still evaluating the current and deferred tax implications and the accounting implications of the asset versus stock deal by legal jurisdiction, as well as the varying statutory tax rates across the global business.

Nu Finish Acquisition - On July 2, 2018, the Company acquired all of the assets of Reed-Union Corporation's automotive appearance business, including Nu Finish Car Polish and Scratch Doctor brands (Nu Finish Acquisition). The acquisition purchase price of $38.1 was funded through a combination of cash on hand and committed debt facilities. The revenue in the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2019 associated with the Nu Finish Acquisition was $1.9 and $2.9 , respectively, and earnings before income taxes was $0.8 for both periods. We have calculated fair values of assets and liabilities acquired for the Nu Finish Acquisition and completed our valuation analysis.
