The results of operations of IntraLase have been included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations from the acquisition date. The total purchase price of the IntraLase acquisition was as follows (in thousands):

 

Cash consideration to IntraLase stockholders

   $ 741,652

Cash payment for vested IntraLase stock options

     71,166

Estimated direct transaction fees and expenses

     8,686
      

Total purchase price

   $ 821,504
      

The above purchase price has been allocated based on the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The purchase price has been allocated as follows (in thousands):

 

Cash and marketable securities

   $ 97,715  

Inventories (includes $7,655 step-up to fair value)

     24,624  

Accounts receivable

     28,269  

Other current assets

     13,850  

Property, plant and equipment

     14,642  

Other non-current assets

     9,933  

Intangible assets

     224,200  

In-process research and development

     85,400  

Goodwill

     414,853  

Accounts payable

     (11,437 )

Other liabilities

     (41,132 )

Non-current deferred tax liability, primarily related to intangible assets

     (39,413 )
        

Net assets acquired

   $ 821,504  
        

The valuation of acquired intangible assets and IPR&D was based on the actual net assets of IntraLase that existed as of the date of the completion of the acquisition. Of the $224.2 million of acquired intangible assets, $170.2 million was assigned to developed technology rights that have a weighted-average useful life of approximately 7 years, $10.1 million was assigned to customer relationships with a useful life of 5 years and $43.9 million was assigned to the IntraLase tradename with an indefinite useful life. The amounts assigned to intangible assets were based on management’s estimate of the fair value. Developed technology rights recorded in connection with the acquisition of IntraLase were established as intangible assets under paragraph 39 of SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141”) as the underlying technologies are legally protected by patents covering the femtosecond laser and approved applications of the laser received from regulatory authorities in the United States and international locations. The developed technology rights are both transferable and separable from the acquired entity.

Identification and allocation of value to the identified intangible assets was based on the provisions of SFAS 141. The fair value of the identified intangible assets was estimated by performing a discounted cash flow analysis using the “income” approach. This method includes a forecast of direct revenues and costs associated with the respective intangible assets and charges for economic returns on tangible and intangible assets utilized in cash flow generation. Net cash flows attributable to the identified intangible assets are discounted to their present value at a rate commensurate with the perceived risk. The projected cash flow assumptions considered contractual relationships, customer attrition, eventual development of new technologies and market competition.

The estimates of expected useful lives were based on guidance from SFAS 141 and take into consideration the effects of competition, regulatory changes and possible obsolescence. The useful lives of technology rights were based on the number of years in which net cash flows have been projected. The useful lives of customer relationships were estimated based upon the length of the contracts currently in place, probability based estimates of contract renewals in the future and natural growth and diversification of other potential customers, which were considered insignificant. Management considers the IntraLase tradename to be a leading name in laser vision correction procedures. Management intends to maintain and continue to market existing and new products under the IntraLase tradename. As management intends to continue to use the IntraLase tradename indefinitely, an indefinite life was assigned.

Table of Contents

Assumptions used in forecasting cash flows for each of the identified intangible assets included consideration of the following:

 

   

IntraLase historical operating margins

 

   

Number of procedures and devices IntraLase has developed and that were approved by the FDA

 

   

IntraLase market share

 

   

Contractual and non-contractual relationships with large groups of surgeons and

 

   

Patents and exclusive licenses held.

A history of operating margins and profitability, a strong scientific, service and manufacturing employee base and a leading presence in the laser market were among the factors that contributed to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of goodwill. The acquired goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes, has been allocated to the Company’s refractive segment.

About IntraLase Corp.

IntraLase designs, develops, and manufactures an ultra-fast laser that is revolutionizing refractive and corneal surgery by creating safe and more precise corneal incisions. Delivering on the promise of ophthalmic laser technology, the IntraLase FS laser, related software, and disposable devices replace the hand-held microkeratome blade used during LASIK surgery. The unsurpassed accuracy of IntraLase’s computer-controlled femtosecond laser has been shown to improve safety profiles and visual outcomes when used during LASIK. Additionally, the IntraLase FS laser creates precision-designed intracorneal incisions that when combined can be used during lamellar and penetrating keratoplasty, and intrastromal ring implantation. IntraLase is presently in the process of commercializing applications of its technology in the treatment of corneal diseases that require corneal transplant surgery. The company’s proprietary laser and disposable patient interfaces are presently marketed throughout the United States and 33 other countries. IntraLase is headquartered and manufactures its products in Irvine, California. For additional information, visit IntraLase’s Web site at www.intralase.com.
