| Acquisitions | 3. On October 11, 2019, we entered into a subscription and shareholders’ agreement to acquire 3,900 ordinary shares and 1,365 C ordinary shares of Selio Medical Limited ("Selio"), an option to purchase all ordinary shares in Selio throughout a 45 day period commencing from the date Selio receives FDA Section 510(k) approval of a medical device it is currently developing, and an option to purchase all remaining shares on the third anniversary date of the agreement if we elect to purchase all ordinary shares. The shares of stock we acquired, which represent an ownership interest of approximately 19.5%, have been recorded as an equity investment accounted for at cost because we are not able to exercise significant influence over the operations of Selio. The investment and purchase option of approximately $2.6 million are reflected within other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we have a loan to Selio of $250,000, reflected within other assets, and have committed to provide a loan up to an additional €2 million at the discretion of the borrower. Amounts outstanding under the loan accrue interest at a rate of 5% per annum payable monthly. All amounts outstanding under the loan agreement become due and payable at the first anniversary of the expiration of our option to purchase all ordinary shares. On August 1, 2019, we entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire Fibrovein Holdings Limited, which is the owner of 100% of the capital stock of STD Pharmaceutical Products Limited, a UK private company engaged in the manufacture, distribution and sale of pharmaceutical sclerotherapy products (“STD Pharmaceutical”). The purchase consideration consisted of an upfront payment of approximately $13.7 million, net of cash acquired. We also recorded a contingent consideration liability of $934,000 related to royalties potentially payable pursuant to the terms of the share purchase agreement. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The sales and results of operations related to the acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date and were not material. Acquisition-related costs associated with the STD Pharmaceutical acquisition, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses, were not material. Assets Acquired Trade receivables $ 277 Inventories 843 Prepaid expenses and other assets 49 Intangibles Developed technology 10,428 Goodwill 4,975 Total assets acquired 16,572 Liabilities Assumed Trade payables (53) Accrued expenses (29) Deferred income tax liabilities (1,890) Total liabilities assumed (1,972) Total net assets acquired $ 14,600 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset acquired from STD Pharmaceutical over 12 years. The goodwill consists largely of the synergies we hope to achieve from combining operations and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. On June 14, 2019, we consummated an acquisition transaction contemplated by a merger agreement to acquire Brightwater Medical, Inc. ("Brightwater"). The purchase consideration consisted of an upfront payment of $35 million plus a final working capital adjustment of approximately $39,000, net of cash acquired, with potential earn-out payments of up to an additional $5 million for achievement of CE certification with respect to the Brightwater ConvertX®, a single-use device used to replace a series of devices and procedures used to treat severe obstructions of the ureter, and up to an additional $10 million for the achievement of sales milestones specified in the merger agreement. The ConvertX device is designed to be implanted once and converted from a nephroureteral catheter to a nephroureteral stent without requiring sedation or local anesthesia. Brightwater recently received FDA clearance for the ConvertX biliary stent device. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The sales and results of operations related to the acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date and were not material. Acquisition-related costs associated with the Brightwater acquisition, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses, were not material. During the fourth quarter of 2019, certain immaterial measurement period adjustments have been made to the preliminary purchase price allocation primarily related to the deferred tax liabilities associated with the fair value of the acquired net assets which was offset to goodwill. The purchase price was preliminarily allocated as follows (in thousands): Assets Acquired Trade receivables $ 55 Inventories 349 Property and equipment 409 Other long-term assets 30 Intangibles Developed technology 31,960 Customer lists 83 Trademarks 250 Goodwill 17,492 Total assets acquired 50,628 Liabilities Assumed Trade payables (58) Accrued expenses (261) Other long-term obligations (1,522) Deferred income tax liabilities (4,148) Total liabilities assumed (5,989) Total net assets acquired $ 44,639 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset acquired from Brightwater over 13 years, the related trademarks over five years and the customer list on an accelerated basis over one year. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is approximately 12.9 years. The goodwill consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale we hope to achieve from combining the acquired assets and operations with our historical operations and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. On March 28, 2019, we paid $2 million to acquire convertible participating preferred shares of Fluidx Medical Technology, LLC ("Fluidx"), owner of certain technology proposed to be used in the development of embolic and adhesive agents for use in arterial, venous, vascular graft and cardiovascular applications inside and outside the heart and related appendages. Our investment in Fluidx has been recorded as an equity investment accounted for at cost and reflected within other assets in our accompanying consolidated balance sheet because we are not able to exercise significant influence over the operations of Fluidx. Our total current investment in Fluidx represents an ownership of approximately 11.6% of the outstanding equity interests of Fluidx. On December 14, 2018, we consummated an acquisition transaction contemplated by an asset purchase agreement with Vascular Insights, LLC and VI Management, Inc. (combined "Vascular Insights") and acquired Vascular Insights’ intellectual property rights, inventory and certain other assets, including, the ClariVein® IC system and the ClariVein OC system. The ClariVein systems are specialty infusion and occlusion catheter systems with rotating wire tips designed for the controlled 360-degree dispersion of physician-specified agents to a targeted treatment area. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The purchase consideration included an upfront payment of $40 million, and a final working capital adjustment of approximately $15,000 paid by Vascular Insights in the third quarter of 2019. We are also obligated to pay up to an additional $20 million based on achieving certain revenue milestones specified in the asset purchase agreement. The sales and results of operations related to this acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment. During the year ended December 31, 2019 net sales of products acquired from Vascular Insights were approximately $7.5 million. It is not practical to separately report earnings related to the products acquired from Vascular Insights, as we cannot split out sales costs related solely to the products we acquired from Vascular Insights, principally because our sales representatives sell multiple products (including the products we acquired from Vascular Insights) in our cardiovascular business segment. Acquisition-related costs associated with the Vascular Insights acquisition, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2018, were not material. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the net assets acquired as follows (in thousands): Inventories $ 1,353 Intangibles Developed technology 32,750 Customer list 840 Trademarks 1,410 Goodwill 21,832 Total net assets acquired $ 58,185 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset acquired from Vascular Insights over 12 years, the related trademarks over nine years and the customer list on an accelerated basis over eight years. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is approximately 11.8 years. The goodwill arising principally from synergies anticipated upon consolidation of operations is expected the be deductible for income tax purposes. On November 13, 2018 we consummated an acquisition transaction contemplated by a merger agreement to acquire Cianna Medical, Inc. ("Cianna Medical"). The purchase consideration consisted of an upfront payment of $135 million plus a final working capital adjustment of approximately $1.2 million in cash, with earn-out payments of $15 million for achievement of supply chain and scalability metrics paid in the third quarter of 2019 and potential payments up to an additional $50 million for the achievement of sales milestones specified in the merger agreement. Cianna Medical developed the first non-radioactive, wire-free breast cancer localization system. Its SCOUT® and SAVI® Brachy technologies are FDA-cleared and address unmet needs in the delivery of radiation therapy, tumor localization and surgical guidance. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, net sales of Cianna Medical products were approximately $49.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively. It is not practical to separately report earnings related to the products acquired from Cianna Medical, as we cannot split out sales costs related solely to the products we acquired from Cianna Medical, principally because our sales representatives sell multiple products (including the products we acquired from Cianna Medical) in our cardiovascular segment. Acquisition-related costs associated with the Cianna Medical acquisition, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2018, were approximately $3.5 million. During the measurement period, which ended in November 2019, adjustments were made to finalize the allocation of purchase price related to deferred income tax liabilities and goodwill. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the net assets acquired from Cianna Medical (in thousands): Assets Acquired Trade receivables $ 6,151 Inventories 5,803 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 315 Property and equipment 1,047 Other long-term assets 14 Intangibles Developed technology 134,510 Customer lists 3,330 Trademarks 7,080 Goodwill 61,379 Total assets acquired 219,629 Liabilities Assumed Trade payables (1,497) Accrued expenses (2,384) Other long-term liabilities (1,527) Deferred income tax liabilities (25,940) Total liabilities assumed (31,348) Total net assets acquired $ 188,281 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible assets of Cianna Medical over 11 years, the related trademarks over ten years and the customer lists on an accelerated basis over eight years. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is approximately 10.7 years. The goodwill consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale we hope to achieve from combining the acquired assets and operations with our historical operations and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. During July 2018, we purchased 1,786,000 preferred limited liability company units of Cagent Vascular, LLC, a medical device company ("Cagent"), for approximately $2.2 million. We had previously purchased 3,000,000 preferred limited liability company units of Cagent for approximately $3.0 million during 2016 and 2017. Our investment has been recorded as an equity investment accounted for at cost and reflected within other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets because we are not able to exercise significant influence over the operations of Cagent. Our total current investment in Cagent represents an ownership of approximately 19.5% of the outstanding stock. On May 23, 2018, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with DirectACCESS Medical, LLC (“DirectACCESS”) to acquire its assets, including, certain product distribution agreements for the FirstChoice™ Ultra High-Pressure PTA Balloon Catheter. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The purchase price for the assets was approximately $7.3 million. The sales and results of operations related to the acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date and were not material. Acquisition-related costs associated with the DirectACCESS acquisition, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2018, were not material. The purchase price was allocated as follows (in thousands): Inventories $ 971 Intangibles Developed technology 4,840 Customer list 120 Trademarks 400 Goodwill 938 Total net assets acquired $ 7,269 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset of DirectACCESS over ten years, the related trademarks over ten years and the customer list on an accelerated basis over five years. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is approximately 9.9 years. The goodwill arising principally from synergies anticipated upon consolidation of operations is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. On May 18, 2018, we paid $750,000 for a distribution agreement with QXMédical, LLC ("QXMédical") for the Q50® PLUS Stent Graft Balloon Catheter. We accounted for this acquisition as an asset purchase. We are amortizing the distribution agreement intangible asset over a period of ten years. On April 6, 2018, we entered into long-term agreements with NinePoint, pursuant to which we (a) became the exclusive worldwide distributor for the NvisionVLE® Imaging System with Real-time Targeting™ using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and (b) acquired an option to purchase up to 100% of the outstanding equity in NinePoint throughout a three-month period commencing 18 months subsequent to the agreement date, both in exchange for total consideration of $10 million. In addition, we made a loan to NinePoint for $10.5 million with a maturity date of April 6, 2023, at which time the loan, together with accrued interest thereon, will be due and payable. The loan bears interest at a rate of 9.0% and is collateralized by NinePoint’s rights, interest and title to the NvisionVLE® Imaging System and any other product owned or licensed by NinePoint utilizing OCT. This loan has been recorded as a note receivable within other long-term assets in our consolidated balance sheets. We utilized the consolidation of variable interest entities guidance to determine whether or not NinePoint was a variable interest entity ("VIE"), and if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary of NinePoint. As of December 31, 2018, we concluded that NinePoint is a VIE based on the fact that the equity investment at risk in NinePoint is not sufficient to finance its activities. We have also determined that Merit is not the primary beneficiary of NinePoint as we do not have the power to direct NinePoint’s most significant activities. The results of operations related to NinePoint have been included in our endoscopy segment since the acquisition date. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 our net sales of NinePoint products were approximately $2.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Our exposure to loss related to our transaction with NinePoint was the carrying value of the amounts paid to and due from NinePoint. In 2019, we determined our investments in NinePoint were impaired, and we recorded impairment charges of $20.5 million for the NinePoint note receivable and purchase option and $1.6 million related to interest accrued on the note receivable. In January 2020, our option to purchase the outstanding equity of NinePoint expired. On February 14, 2018, we acquired certain divested assets from Becton, Dickinson and Company ("BD"), for an aggregate purchase price of $100.3 million. We also recorded a contingent consideration liability of $1.6 million related to milestone payments payable pursuant to the terms of the acquired contract with Sontina Medical LLC. The assets acquired include the soft tissue core needle biopsy products sold under the tradenames of Achieve® Programmable Automatic Biopsy System, Temno® Biopsy System and TruCut® Biopsy Needles as well as the Aspira® Pleural Effusion Drainage Kits, and the Aspira® Peritoneal Drainage System. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, net sales of BD products were approximately $46.8 million and $42.1 million, respectively. It is not practical to separately report earnings related to the products acquired from BD, as we cannot split out sales costs related solely to the products we acquired from BD, principally because our sales representatives sell multiple products (including the products we acquired from BD) in our cardiovascular business segment. Acquisition-related costs associated with the BD acquisition, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2018, were approximately $1.8 million. During the measurement period, which ended in December 2018, adjustments were made to finalize the allocation of purchase price related to intangible assets, goodwill and contingent liabilities. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the assets acquired from BD (in thousands): Inventories $ 5,804 Property and equipment 748 Intangibles Developed technology 74,000 Customer list 4,200 Trademarks 4,900 In-process technology 2,500 Goodwill 9,728 Total net assets acquired $ 101,880 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible assets acquired from BD over eight years, the related trademarks over nine years, and the customer lists on an accelerated basis over seven years. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is approximately eight years. The goodwill arising principally from synergies anticipated upon consolidation of operations is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. On October 2, 2017 we acquired a custom procedure pack business located in Melbourne, Australia from ITL, for an aggregate purchase price of $11.3 million. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The following table summarizes the aggregate purchase price allocated to the assets acquired from ITL (in thousands): Assets Acquired Trade receivables $ 1,287 Other receivables 56 Inventories 1,808 Prepaid expenses and other assets 65 Property and equipment 1,053 Intangibles Customer lists 5,940 Goodwill 3,945 Total assets acquired 14,154 Liabilities Assumed Trade payables (216) Accrued expenses (747) Deferred tax liabilities (1,901) Total liabilities assumed (2,864) Total net assets acquired $ 11,290 We are amortizing the customer list on an accelerated basis over seven years. The goodwill consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale we hope to achieve from combining the acquired assets and operations with our historical operations and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Acquisition-related costs associated with the ITL acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, were not material. The results of operations related to this acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, our net sales of ITL products were approximately $7.7 million, $8.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively. It is not practical to separately report the earnings related to the ITL acquisition, as we cannot split out sales costs related solely to the products we acquired from ITL, principally because our sales representatives sell multiple products (including the products we acquired from ITL) in our cardiovascular business segment. On September 1, 2017, we acquired intellectual property rights associated with a steerable guidewire system from IntelliMedical Technologies Pty. Ltd. ("IntelliMedical"). We made an initial payment of approximately $11.9 million in September 2017, and we are obligated to pay up to an additional A$15.0 million (Australian dollars) if certain milestones set forth in the share purchase agreement with IntelliMedical are achieved. We are also required to pay royalties equal to 6% of net sales, commencing upon the first commercial sale of the product and throughout the term of the applicable patents. We accounted for this transaction as an asset purchase. The initial payment has been included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as acquired in-process research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2017, because technological feasibility of the underlying research and development project had not yet been reached and such technology had no identified future alternative use as of the date of acquisition. On August 4, 2017 we acquired from Laurane Medical S.A.S. ("Laurane") and its shareholders inventories and the intellectual property rights associated with certain manual bone biopsy devices, manual bone marrow needles and muscle biopsy kits for an aggregate purchase price of $16.5 million. We also recorded a contingent consideration liability of $5.5 million related to royalties potentially payable to Laurane’s shareholders pursuant to the terms of an intellectual property purchase agreement. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The following table summarizes the aggregate purchase price (including contingent royalty payment liabilities) allocated to the assets acquired from Laurane (in thousands): Inventories $ 594 Intangibles Developed technology 14,920 Customer list 120 Goodwill 6,366 Total net assets acquired $ 22,000 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset over 12 years and the customer list on an accelerated basis over one year. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is 11.9 years. The goodwill arising principally from synergies anticipated upon consolidation of operations is expected the be deductible for income tax purposes. The sales and results of operations related to the acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date and were not material. Acquisition-related costs associated with the Laurane acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, were not material. On July 3, 2017, we acquired from Osseon LLC (“Osseon”) substantially all the assets related to Osseon’s vertebral augmentation products. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The purchase price for the assets was approximately $6.8 million. Acquisition-related costs associated with the Osseon acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, were not material. The results of operations related to this acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, our net sales of Osseon products were approximately $1.7 million, $2.1 million and $942,000, respectively. It is not practical to separately report the earnings related to the Osseon acquisition, as we cannot split out sales costs related solely to the products we acquired from Osseon, principally because our sales representatives sell multiple products (including the products we acquired from Osseon) in our cardiovascular business segment. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the assets acquired (in thousands): Inventories $ 979 Property and equipment 58 Intangibles Developed technology 5,400 Customer list 200 Goodwill 203 Total net assets acquired $ 6,840 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset over nine years and customer lists on an accelerated basis over eight years. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is approximately 9.0 years. The goodwill arising principally from synergies anticipated upon consolidation of operations is expected the be deductible for income tax purposes. On July 1, 2017, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Pleuratech ApS ("Pleuratech") to acquire the rights to manufacture and sell the KatGuide TM On June 16, 2017, we acquired from Lazarus Medical Technologies, LLC the patent rights and other intellectual property related to the Repositionable Chest Tube TM On May 23, 2017, we paid $2.5 million to acquire 182,000 shares of preferred stock of Fusion Medical, Inc. ("Fusion"), a developer of medical devices designed primarily for clot removal. The shares of preferred stock we acquired, which represent an ownership interest of approximately 19.5%, have been accounted for as an equity method investment of $2.5 million reflected within other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets because we may be deemed to exercise significant influence over the operations of Fusion. On May 19, 2017, we terminated our distribution agreement with Sheen Man Co., Ltd. and Sugan Co, Ltd., ("Sugan"), a Japanese medical device distributor and entered into a business purchase agreement, distribution agreement and a supply agreement with Sugan. Pursuant to these agreements, we acquired the customer list Sugan used in the distribution of our products in Japan. The purchase price is recorded as a customer list intangible asset of approximately $1.2 million. We are amortizing the customer list intangible asset on an accelerated basis over five years. In addition, we granted to Sugan the right to continue to distribute a limited number of our products, related to fluid administration, through December 31, 2021 and to manufacture and sell to Sugan certain contrast injector products during a term of four years, subject to extensions. On May 1, 2017, we entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Vascular Access Technologies, Inc. ("VAT"), pursuant to which we acquired the SAFECVAD™ device. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. The purchase price for the business was $5.0 million. We also recorded $4.9 million of contingent consideration related to royalties potentially payable to VAT pursuant to the merger agreement. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands): Intangibles Developed technology $ 7,800 In-process technology 920 Goodwill 4,281 Deferred tax liabilities (3,101) Total net assets acquired $ 9,900 We are amortizing the developed technology intangible asset over 15 years. The goodwill arising principally from synergies anticipated upon consolidation of operations is not expected the be deductible for income tax purposes. The sales and results of operations related to the acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date and were not material. Acquisition-related costs associated with the VAT acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, were not material. On January 31, 2017, we acquired Argon’s critical care division, including a manufacturing facility in Singapore, the related commercial operations in Europe and Japan, and certain inventories and intellectual property rights within the U.S. We made an initial payment of approximately $10.9 million and received a subsequent reduction to the purchase price of approximately $797,000 related to a working capital adjustment according to the terms of the purchase agreement. We accounted for the acquisition as a business combination. Acquisition-related costs associated with the acquisition of the Argon critical care division during the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, were approximately $2.6 million. The results of operations related to this acquisition have been included in our cardiovascular segment since the acquisition date. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, our net sales of the Argon critical care products were approximately $46.8 million, $45.5 million and $41.2 million, respectively. It is not practical to separately report the earnings related to the Argon critical care acquisition, as we cannot split out sales costs related solely to the products we acquired from Argon, principally because our sales representatives sell multiple products (including the products we acquired from Argon) in our cardiovascular business segment. The assets and liabilities in the purchase price allocation for the Argon critical care acquisition are stated at fair value based on estimates of fair value using available information and making assumptions our management believes are reasonable. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands): Assets Acquired Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,436 Trade receivables 8,351 Inventories 11,222 Prepaid expenses and other assets 1,275 Income tax refund receivable 165 Property and equipment 2,319 Deferred tax assets 202 Intangibles Developed technology 2,200 Customer lists 1,500 Trademarks 900 Total assets acquired 29,570 Liabilities Assumed Trade payables (2,414) Accrued expenses (5,083) Deferred income tax liabilities (934) Total liabilities assumed (8,431) Total net assets acquired 21,139 Gain on bargain purchase (1) (11,039) Total purchase price $ 10,100 (1) The total fair value of the net assets acquired from Argon exceeded the purchase price, resulting in a gain on bargain purchase which was recorded within other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of income. We believe the reason for the gain on bargain purchase was a result of the divestiture of a non-strategic, slow-growth critical care business for Argon. It is our understanding that the divestiture allows Argon to focus on its higher growth interventional portfolio. With respect to the Argon critical care assets, we are amortizing developed technology over seven years and customer lists on an accelerated basis over five years. While U.S. trademarks can be renewed indefinitely, we currently estimate that we will generate cash flow from the acquired trademarks for a period of five years from the acquisition date. The total weighted-average amortization period for these acquired intangible assets is 6.0 years. On January 31, 2017, we acquired substantially all the assets, including intellectual property covered by approximately 40 patents and pending applications, and assumed certain liabilities, of Catheter Connections, Inc. (“Catheter Connections”), in exchange for payment of $38 million. Catheter Connections, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, developed and marketed the DualCap® System, an innovative family of disinfecting products designed to protect patients from intravenous infections resulting from infusion therapy. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. Acquisition-related costs associated with the Catheter Connections acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in selling |
