Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Dollars and shares in thousands, unless otherwise noted)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MTS Systems Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The terms "MTS," "we," "us," "the Company" or "our" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, refer to MTS Systems Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
We have prepared the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States (U.S.) Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The information furnished in these consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments that are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 29, 2018
filed with the SEC. Interim results of operations for the
first
fiscal quarter ended
December 29, 2018
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
We have a 5-4-4 week, quarterly accounting cycle with our fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to September 30. Fiscal year
2019
ending on
September 28, 2019
will consist of 52 weeks. Fiscal year
2018
ended on
September 29, 2018
and consisted of 52 weeks.
Changes to Significant Accounting Policies
The following accounting policies have been updated since our fiscal year 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Revenue Recognition
As described in Note 2, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),
followed by related amendments on September 30, 2018 under the modified retrospective transition method. Our new revenue recognition accounting policy and disclosures relative to this guidance are included in Note 3.
NOTE 2 RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. Lessees can forgo recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability with lease terms of 12 months or less on the balance sheet through accounting policy elections as long as the lease does not include options to renew or purchase the underlying assets that are reasonably certain to be exercised. The new guidance also requires certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, along with additional key information about leasing arrangements.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10,
Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases
, to clarify certain aspects of the new lease standard. The FASB also issued ASU No. 2018-11,
Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements
, which allows the election of an optional transition method to apply the provisions of the new lease standard as of the date of adoption and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption, while continuing to present all prior periods under previous lease accounting guidance.
In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20,
Leases (842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors
, which clarifies how to account for sales tax and similar taxes collected from lessees, certain lessor costs and recognition of variable payments for contracts with lease and non-lease components.
The aforementioned lease standards and amendments ("the new lease standard") are required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that annual period, which is our fiscal year 2020. The new lease standard is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach, which includes a number of optional practical expedients and an optional transition method. Early adoption is permitted. We intend to adopt the new lease standard for our
fiscal year 2020. We are currently evaluation our lease portfolio; assessing system needs to support adoption of the new lease standard; and analyzing procedural changes, including updating our lease accounting policy as needed to reflect the new requirements of this standard. We continue to evaluate the impact that these changes in methodology will have on our financial condition, results of operations and disclosures.
Other
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,
Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
, which changes the accounting for credit losses on instruments measured at amortized cost by adding an impairment model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. An entity will recognize as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which is believed to result in more timely recognition of such losses as the standard eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19,
Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses
, which clarifies that a receivable arising from an operating lease that is accounted for by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842 is not within the scope of Subtopic 326. These standards are required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period, which is our fiscal year 2021. The amendments are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which adopted. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that annual period, which is our fiscal year 2020. We have not yet evaluated the impact the adoption of this guidance may have on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,
Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework–Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement
, which eliminates, amends and adds disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The standard is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period, which is our fiscal year 2021. Certain disclosures in the amendment are to be applied using a retrospective approach while other disclosures are to be applied using a prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet evaluated the impact the adoption of this guidance may have on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14,
Compensation–Retirement Benefits–Defined Benefit Plans–General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework–Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans
, which eliminates, amends and adds disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The standard is required to be adopted for annual periods ending after December 15, 2020, which is our fiscal year 2021. The amendment is to be applied using a retrospective approach with early adoption permitted. We have not yet evaluated the impact the adoption of this guidance may have on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
Adopted
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),
followed by related amendments (collectively, "the new revenue standard" or "ASC 606") to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. Under the new revenue standard, a company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Determination of when and how revenue is recognized is based on a five-step analysis. Enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a company's contracts with customers are required.
We adopted the new revenue standard on September 30, 2018 for our fiscal year 2019 under the modified retrospective transition method. As of September 30, 2018, we recorded a cumulative-effect reduction to the opening balance of our fiscal year 2019 retained earnings of
$6,227
, net of tax, for the net deferral of previously recognized revenue and related cost of sales, partially offset by the capitalization and deferral of pre-contract costs. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. See Note 3 for our new revenue recognition accounting policy and disclosures relative to this guidance.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-04,
Liabilities—Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20): Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products
, which amends existing guidance on extinguishing financial liabilities for certain prepaid stored-value products. The new standard requires recognition of the expected breakage amount or the value that is ultimately not redeemed either proportionally in earnings as redemption occurs or when redemption is remote, if issuers are not entitled to breakage. We adopted the new standard on a modified retrospective basis for the annual period ending September 28, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16,
Income Taxes (Topic 740), Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
, which requires companies to account for the income tax effects of intercompany sales and transfers of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. Current guidance requires companies to defer the income tax effects of intercompany transfers of assets until the asset has been sold to an outside party or otherwise recognized. We adopted the new standard on a modified retrospective basis for the annual period ending September 28, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07,
Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost,
which changes how employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans present the net periodic benefit cost in the income statement. The new guidance requires the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost to be presented in the same income statement line items as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period, with only the service cost component eligible for capitalization in assets. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost are to be stated separately from the line items that include the service cost and outside of operating income. These components are not eligible for capitalization in assets. We adopted the new standard for the annual period ending September 28, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period, retrospectively for the presentation in the income statement of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic pension cost and prospectively for the capitalization in assets of the service cost component of net periodic pension cost. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our current or prior year financial condition, results of operations or disclosures. Therefore, the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12,
Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities
, which amends the hedge accounting model in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815 to enable entities to better portray the economics of their risk management activities in the financial statements and enhance the transparency and understandability of hedge results. We early adopted the new standard on a modified retrospective basis for the annual period ending September 28, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our current or prior year financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
NOTE 3 REVENUE
Adoption
We adopted the new revenue standard on September 30, 2018 for our fiscal year 2019 under the modified retrospective transition method. We applied the new revenue standard to all contracts which were not completed as of the effective date and elected not to apply contract modification guidance retrospectively. As a result of adoption, we recorded a cumulative-effect reduction to the opening balance of our fiscal year 2019 retained earnings of
$6,227
, net of tax, for the net deferral of previously recognized revenue and related cost of sales, partially offset by the capitalization and deferral of pre-contract costs.
The timing of revenue recognition for the majority of our products and contracts remains substantially unchanged under the new revenue standard, with the exception of certain contracts in our Test & Simulation segment (Test & Simulation). Dependent on contract-specific terms that evidence customer control of the work in process or an enforceable right to payment with no alternative use, certain contracts have a delay in revenue recognition until the customer takes control of the product, while certain contracts accelerate the recognition of revenue over the life of the contract. Under the new revenue standard, certain costs to obtain contracts (i.e., pre-contract costs) are capitalized at contract inception and recognized as revenue is earned. While we do not expect the adoption of the new revenue standard to have a significant impact on annual revenue recognized, our financial condition or results of operations, we do expect that it will have an impact on the timing of revenue recognition in interim periods.
The impact of adopting the new revenue standard on our Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Balance Sheets is as follows:

Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or providing those services. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are known, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account under the new revenue standard. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Many of our contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct. In situations when our contract includes distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer over time, they are recognized as a series of distinct goods or services. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract's transaction price to each performance obligation using our best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract.
We do not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if we expect, at contract inception, that the period between when we transfer a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less.
Revenue is recorded net of taxes collected from customers, and taxes collected are recorded as current liabilities until remitted to the relevant government authority. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control of a product has transferred are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following is a description of the product offerings, end markets, typical revenue transactions and payment terms for each of our two reportable segments. See Note 16 for further information on reportable segments.
Test & Simulation
Test & Simulation manufactures and sells equipment and related software and services which are used by customers to characterize a product's mechanical properties or performance. Our solutions simulate forces and motions that customers expect their products to encounter in use or are necessary to properly characterize the product's performance. Primary Test & Simulation markets include transportation, infrastructure, energy, aerospace, materials science, medical, flight training and amusement parks. A typical system is a comprehensive solution which includes a reaction frame to hold the prototype specimen; a hydraulic or electro-mechanical power source; actuators to create the force or motion; and a computer controller with specialized software to coordinate the actuator movement and to measure, record and manipulate results. Our portfolio of Test & Simulation solutions includes standard, configurable testing products; engineered products which combine standard product configurations with a moderate degree of customization per customer specifications; and highly customized, highly
engineered testing solutions built to address the customer's unique business need, which can include development of first-of-a-kind technology. To complement our Test & Simulation products, we provide our customers with a spectrum of services to maximize product performance including installation, product life cycle management, professional training, calibration and metrology, technical consulting and onsite and factory repair and maintenance. In addition, we sell a variety of accessories and spare parts. The manufacturing cycle for a typical system ranges from weeks to 12 months, depending on the complexity of the system and the availability of components, and can be up to three years for larger, more complex systems. For certain contracts, the order to revenue cycle may extend beyond the manufacturing cycle, such as when the manufacturing start date is driven by the customer's project timeline or when the contract terms require equipment installation and commissioning and customer acceptance prior to point-in-time revenue recognition.
Test & Simulation contracts often have multiple performance obligations, most commonly due to the contract covering multiple phases of the product life cycle (i.e., equipment design and production, installation and commissioning, extended warranty and software maintenance). The primary method used to estimate standalone selling price is the expected cost plus a margin approach under which we forecast our expected costs of satisfying a performance obligation and then add an appropriate margin for that distinct good or service.
Test & Simulation revenue is recognized either over time as work progresses or point-in-time, depending on contract-specific terms and the pattern of transfer of control of the product or service to the customer. Revenue from services is recognized in the period the service is performed or ratably over the period of the related service contract. Equipment revenue is recognized over time when: (i) control is transferred to the customer over time as work progresses; or (ii) contract terms evidence customer control of the work in process or an enforceable right to payment with no alternative use. Equipment revenue is recognized over time using costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion to measure progress toward satisfying the performance obligation. Incurred cost represents work performed, which corresponds with, and thereby best depicts, the transfer of control to the customer. Equipment contract costs include materials, component parts, labor and overhead costs.
Equipment revenue is recognized point-in-time when either: (i) control is transferred to the customer at a point-in-time when obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied; or (ii) contract terms do not evidence customer control of the work in process or an enforceable right to payment with no alternative use, and consequently revenue is deferred as work progresses. Satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of the contract occurs either upon product shipment (as evidenced by delivery or shipment terms), completion of equipment installation and commissioning, or customer acceptance.
For our Test & Simulation contracts with customers, payment terms vary and are subject to negotiation. Typical payment terms include progress payments based on specified events or milestones. For some contracts, we are entitled to receive an advance payment.
Sensors
Our Sensors segment (Sensors) manufactures and sells high-performance sensors which provide measurements of vibration, pressure, position, force and sound in a variety of applications. Our Sensors products are used to enable automation, enhance precision and safety, and lower our customers' production costs by improving performance and reducing downtime. Primary Sensors markets include automotive, aerospace and defense, industrial, and research and development. Our Sensors products are sold as configurable, standard units; utilize piezoelectric or magnetostriction technology; and are ideal for use in harsh operating environments to provide accurate and reliable sensor information. To complement our Sensors products, we also provide spare parts and services. The cycle from contract inception to shipment of equipment is typically one to three months, with the exception of certain high-volume contracts which are fulfilled in a series of shipments over an extended period.
Our Sensors contracts generally have a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time. The performance obligation is a stand-alone sensor product, accessory, service or software license. Sensors contracts are generally fixed-price purchase order fulfillment contracts, and the transaction price is equal to the observable consideration in the contract. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control upon product shipment (as evidenced by shipment or delivery terms) or with the performance of the service.
For our Sensors contracts with customers, payment terms are generally within 90 days. The timing of satisfying our Sensors performance obligations does not vary significantly from the typical timing of payment. For certain high-volume contracts, we are entitled to receive an advance payment.
Disaggregation of Revenue
We disaggregate our revenue by reportable segment, sales type (product or service), the timing of recognition of revenue for transfer of goods or services to customers (point-in-time or over time), and geographic market based on the billing location of the customer. See Note 16 for further information on our reportable segments and intersegment revenue.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable (contract assets) and advance payments from customers (contract liabilities). Contract balances are classified as assets or liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract liabilities represent payments received from customers at contract inception and at milestones per contract provisions. These payments are recorded in advance payments from customers and other long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets (current and non-current portions, respectively) and are liquidated as revenue is recognized. Conversely, when billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition for contracts recognized over time, balances are recorded in unbilled accounts receivable, net in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As customers are billed, unbilled accounts receivable balances are transferred to accounts receivable, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Remaining Performance Obligations
As of
December 29, 2018
, we had approximately
$197,600
of remaining performance obligations on contracts with an original expected duration of one year or more which are primarily related to Test & Simulation. As of
December 29, 2018
, we expect to recognize approximately
63%
of these remaining performance obligations as revenue within one year, an additional
30%
within two years and the balance thereafter. We do not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.
Contract Estimates
For contracts recognized over time, we estimate the profit on a contract as the difference between the total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete a contract and recognize that profit over the life of the contract. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that may span several years. These assumptions include labor productivity and availability, the complexity of the work to be performed, the cost and availability of materials, and internal and subcontractor performance.
Pricing is established at or prior to the time of sale with our customers, and we record sales at the agreed-upon selling price. The terms of a contract or the historical business practice can give rise to variable consideration due to but not limited to volume discounts, penalties and early payment discounts. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount we will receive from customers. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized for such transaction will not occur, or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. In general, variable consideration in our contracts relates to the entire contract. As a result, the variable consideration is allocated proportionately to all performance obligations. Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of our anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to us at contract inception. There are no significant instances where variable consideration is constrained and not recorded at the initial time of sale.
As a significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of our contracts, we review and update our contract-related estimates regularly. We recognize adjustments in estimated profit on contracts under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified. Our review of contract-related estimates has not resulted in adjustments that are significant to our results of operations.
Contract Modifications
When contracts are modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements, we consider whether the modification either creates new, or changes existing, enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original product or service provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price, and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct and at a relative stand-alone selling price, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation and recognized prospectively.
Warranties and Returns
For both Test & Simulation and Sensors, we provide a manufacturer's warranty on our products and systems which is included in customer contracts. At the time a sale is recognized, we record estimated future warranty costs. See Note 5 for further discussion of our product warranty liabilities. We also offer separately-priced extended warranties or service-type contracts on certain products for which revenue is recognized over the contractual period or as services are rendered.
Our sales terms generally do not allow for a right of return except for situations where the product fails. When the right of return exists, we recognize revenue for the transferred products at the expected amount of consideration for which we will be entitled.
Pre-contract Costs
We recognize an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer (i.e., pre-contract costs) when costs are considered recoverable. Capitalized pre-contract costs, consisting primarily of Test & Simulation sales commissions, are amortized as the related revenue is recognized. We recognized total capitalized pre-contract costs of
$5,589
in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of
December 29, 2018
and related expense of
$2,620
in the Consolidated Statements of Income during the
three months ended
December 29, 2018
.
NOTE 4 INVENTORIES
Inventories consist of material, labor and overhead costs and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value determined under the first-in, first-out accounting method. Certain inventories are measured using the weighted average cost method. Inventories, net are as follows:

NOTE 5 WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS
Sales of our products and systems are subject to limited warranty obligations that are included in customer contracts. For sales that include installation services, warranty obligations generally extend for a period of
12
to
24
months from the date of either shipment or acceptance based on the contract terms. Product obligations generally extend for a period of
12
to
24
months from the date of purchase. Certain products offered in our Sensors segment include a lifetime warranty.
Under the terms of these warranties, we are obligated to repair or replace any components or assemblies deemed defective due to workmanship or materials. We reserve the right to reject warranty claims where it is determined that failure is due to normal wear, customer modifications, improper maintenance or misuse. We record general warranty provisions based on an estimated warranty expense percentage applied to current period revenue. The percentage applied reflects our historical warranty claims experience over the preceding
12
-month period. Both the experience percentage and the warranty liability are evaluated on an ongoing basis for adequacy. Warranty provisions are also recognized for certain unanticipated product claims that are individually significant.

NOTE 7 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, we currently utilize market data or other assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market and adjust for non-performance and/or other risk associated with the company as well as counterparties, as appropriate. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
|
|
•
|
Level 1:
Unadjusted quoted prices which are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to us at the measurement date.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 2:
Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
|
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1, as this level provides the most reliable measure of fair value, while giving the lowest priority to Level 3.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis are as follows:

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets primarily include goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets acquired either as part of a business acquisition, individually or with a group of other assets, as well as property and equipment. These assets were initially measured and recognized at amounts equal to the fair value determined as of the date of acquisition or purchase subject to changes in value only for foreign currency translation. Periodically, these assets are tested for impairment by comparing their respective carrying values to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit or asset group in which they reside. In the event any of these assets were to become impaired, we would recognize an impairment loss equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit, impaired asset or asset group exceeds its estimated fair value. Fair value measurements of reporting units are estimated using an income approach involving discounted or undiscounted cash flow models that contain certain Level 3 inputs requiring management judgment, including projections of economic conditions and customer demand, revenue and margins, changes in competition, operating costs, working capital requirements and new product introductions. Fair value measurements of the reporting units associated with our goodwill balances and our indefinite-lived intangible assets are estimated at least annually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for purposes of impairment testing if a quantitative analysis is performed. Fair value measurements associated with our intangible assets, other long-lived assets and property and equipment are estimated when events or changes in circumstances such as market value, asset utilization, physical change, legal factors or other matters indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. See Note 6 for additional information on goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, other long-lived assets and property and equipment.
Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value
Certain financial instruments are not measured at fair value but are recorded at carrying amounts approximating fair value based on their short-term nature or variable interest rate. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings.
Other Financial Instruments
Other financial instruments subject to fair value measurements include debt, which is recorded at carrying value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying amount and estimated fair values of our debt are as follows:

NOTE 8 DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Our currency exchange contracts and interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and qualify as hedging instruments. We also have derivatives which are not designated as cash flow hedges and, therefore, are accounted for and reported under foreign currency guidance. Regardless of designation for accounting purposes, we believe all of our derivative instruments are hedges of transactional risk exposures. The fair value of our outstanding designated and undesignated derivative assets and liabilities are reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

Cash Flow Hedging – Currency Risks
Currency exchange contracts utilized to maintain the functional currency value of expected financial transactions denominated in foreign currencies are designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses related to changes in the market value of these contracts are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) within shareholders' equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and reclassified to earnings in the same line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income and in the same period as the recognition of the underlying hedged transaction. We periodically assess whether our currency exchange contracts are effective and, when a contract is determined to be no longer effective as a hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively.
As of
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
, we had outstanding cash flow hedge currency exchange contracts with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of
$37,953
and
$39,856
, respectively. Upon netting offsetting contracts to sell foreign currencies against contracts to purchase foreign currencies, irrespective of contract maturity dates, the net notional U.S. dollar equivalent amount of contracts outstanding was
$22,804
and
$29,315
as of
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
, respectively. As of
December 29, 2018
, the net market value of the foreign currency exchange contracts was a net asset of
$235
, consisting of
$405
in assets and
$170
in liabilities. As of
September 29, 2018
, the net market value of the foreign currency exchange contracts was a net asset of
$816
, consisting of
$989
in assets and
$173
in liabilities.
The pretax amounts recognized in AOCI on currency exchange contracts, including (gains) losses reclassified into earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Income and gains (losses) recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI), are as follows:

$105
. The maximum remaining maturity of any forward or optional contract as of
December 29, 2018
was
1.3 years
.
Interest Rate Swaps
On October 20, 2016, we entered into a floating to fixed interest rate swap agreement to mitigate our exposure to interest rate increases related to a portion of our tranche B term loan facility. The total notional amount of the interest rate swap was
$225,000
as of
December 29, 2018
. The swap agreement expires April 3, 2021. As a result of this agreement, every month we pay fixed interest at
1.256%
in exchange for interest received at one month U.S. LIBOR. The market value of the interest rate swap as of
December 29, 2018
was an asset of
$4,889
. The interest rate swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge. As a result, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap are recorded in AOCI within shareholders' equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The pretax amounts recognized in AOCI on interest rate swaps, including (gains) losses reclassified into earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Income and gains (losses) recognized in OCI, are as follows:

Foreign Currency Balance Sheet Derivatives
We also use foreign currency derivative contracts to maintain the functional currency value of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional foreign currencies. The gains and losses related to the changes in the market value of these derivative contracts are included in other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
As of
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
, we had outstanding foreign currency balance sheet derivative contracts with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of
$130,780
and
$90,816
, respectively. Upon netting offsetting contracts by counterparty banks to sell foreign currencies against contracts to purchase foreign currencies, irrespective of contract maturity dates, the net notional U.S. dollar equivalent amount of contracts outstanding as of
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
was
$40,991

Tranche B Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility
We have a credit agreement with U.S. Bank National Association and HSBC Bank USA, National Association as Co-Documentation Agents, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Syndication Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC as Joint Bookrunners and Joint Lead Arrangers (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement as amended provides for senior secured credit facilities consisting of a
$150,000
revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility), which expires on July 5, 2022, and a
$460,000
tranche B term loan facility (the Term Facility) which expires on July 5, 2023. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility can be drawn upon to refinance existing indebtedness, for working capital and other general corporate purposes up to a maximum of
$150,000
. The Term Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments equal to
1%
of the original principal amount. The proceeds of the Term Facility were used for financing the acquisition of PCB Group, Inc. (PCB) in fiscal year 2016. Borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility were used for financing the acquisition of E2M Technologies B.V. (E2M) in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, in conjunction with the E2M acquisition, we entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement to increase the borrowing capacity on the Revolving Credit Facility from
$120,000
to
$150,000
and extend the expiration date of the Revolving Credit Facility from July 5, 2021 to July 5, 2022. Additionally, the required performance levels under certain financial covenants were modified. During the
three months ended December 29, 2018
, we incurred debt financing costs of
$541
as a result of this amendment which were capitalized in current maturities of long-term debt, net and long-term debt, less current maturities, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The primary categories of borrowing include Alternate Base Rate (ABR) Borrowing (ABR Term Loans and ABR Revolving Loans), Swingline Loans and Eurocurrency Borrowing (each as defined in the Credit Agreement). ABR Borrowings and Swingline Loans made in U.S. dollars under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The ABR is defined as the greater of (a) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in effect on such day, (b) the New York Federal Reserve Bank (NYFRB) rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in effect on such day plus ½ of
1.00%
, or (c) the Adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for a one-month interest period in dollars on such day plus
1.00%
. The ABR for ABR Term Loans shall not be less than
1.75%
per annum. The Applicable Rate for any ABR Revolving Loans will be based upon the leverage ratio applicable on such date. As of
December 29, 2018
, the Applicable Rate for ABR Term Loans was
2.25%
per annum.
Eurocurrency Borrowings made under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Rate. The Adjusted LIBOR Rate is defined as an interest rate per annum equal to (a) the LIBOR Rate for such interest period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Applicable Rate for any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan is based upon the leverage ratio applicable on such date. The Adjusted LIBOR Rate for Eurocurrency Term Loans shall not be less than
0.75%
per annum. Based on our leverage ratio as of
December 29, 2018
, the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Revolving Loans was
3.00%
. As of
December 29, 2018
, the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Term Loans was
3.25%
per annum, plus the applicable Adjusted LIBOR Rate of
2.46%
. The weighted average interest rate on Term Facility debt during the
three months ended December 29, 2018
was
5.57%
.
As of
December 29, 2018
, there was
$80,391
of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility which is included in long-term debt, less current maturities, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of
September 29, 2018
, there were
no
outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. We had outstanding letters of credit drawn from the Revolving Credit Facility totaling
$20,221
and
$20,448
as of
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
, respectively, leaving approximately
$49,388
and
$99,552
, respectively, of unused borrowing capacity. Commitment fees are payable on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility at rates between
0.25%
and
0.40%
based on our leverage ratio. During the
three
months ended
December 29, 2018
and
December 30, 2017
, commitment fees incurred totaled
$72
and
$79
, respectively.
The Credit Agreement governing the Term Facility requires us to prepay outstanding term loans, subject to certain exceptions, depending on the leverage ratio with (a) up to
50%
of the our annual Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (b)
100%
of the net cash proceeds of (i) certain asset sales and casualty and condemnation events, subject to reinvestment rights and certain other exceptions; and (ii) any incurrence or issuance of certain debt, other than debt permitted under the Credit Agreement. We may voluntarily prepay outstanding loans under the Term Facility at any time without premium or penalty. All obligations under the Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by certain of our existing wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, and are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiary guarantors.
Under the Credit Agreement, we are subject to customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, restrictions on our ability to incur debt, create liens, dispose of assets, make investments, loans, advances, guarantees, and acquisitions, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter into any restrictive agreements and customary events of default (including payment defaults, covenant defaults, change of control defaults and bankruptcy defaults). The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants, including the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to adjusted consolidated earnings before income, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), as defined in the Credit Agreement, as well as the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated interest expense. These covenants restrict our ability to purchase outstanding shares of our common stock. As of
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.
See Note 7 for additional information on the fair value of the tranche B term loan and the TEU debt.
Interest Rate Swaps
On October 20, 2016, in order to mitigate our exposure to interest rate increases on our variable rate debt, we entered into a variable to fixed amortizing interest rate swap. See Note 8 for additional information on derivative financial instruments.
The interest rate swap will be reduced to the following notional amounts over the next three years:

NOTE 12 INCOME TAXES
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) was enacted into law on December 22, 2017 and made significant changes to U.S. federal corporate tax law. Effective January 1, 2018, the Tax Act lowered the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and prompted various other changes to U.S. federal corporate tax law, including the establishment of a territorial-style system for taxing foreign-source income of domestic multinational corporations and a one-time deemed repatriation tax on untaxed foreign earnings. The Tax Act resulted in a U.S. federal blended statutory rate of
24.5%
for fiscal year 2018 and a rate of
21.0%
for fiscal year 2019.
Generally, the impacts of new tax legislation would be required to be recorded in the period of enactment, which was our first quarter of fiscal year 2018. However, in March 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-05,
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118
, which incorporates various SEC paragraphs from Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 into income tax accounting guidance effective immediately, allowing registrants to record provisional amounts during a one-year measurement period.
As of December 29, 2018, we have completed our accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. As a result, the income tax provision for the
three months ended December 29, 2018
included certain discrete benefits of
$1,293
for Tax Act measurement period adjustments. The discrete benefits related to
$1,297
of additional dividends received deduction for certain foreign tax credits included in the mandatory deemed repatriation tax calculation, partially offset by
$4
expense for other Tax Act measurement period adjustments. The additional dividends received deduction is based on our assessment of the treatment under the applicable provisions of the Tax Act as currently written and enacted. If, in the future, Congress or the Department of the Treasury provides legislative or regulatory updates, this could change our assessment of the benefit associated with the dividends received deduction, and we may be required to recognize additional tax expense up to the full amount of the
$1,297
in the period such updates are issued.
Excluding the impact of certain discrete benefits in the current and prior year, the effective tax rate for the
three months ended December 29, 2018
was essentially flat compared to the same prior year period. Factors that increased the effective tax rate for the
three months ended December 29, 2018
included impacts of the Tax Act, such as elimination of the domestic manufacturing deduction and the implementation of the global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) provision. These increases were offset by favorable aspects of the Tax Act, such as the decrease in the U.S. income tax rate and provisions for incentivizing foreign-derived intangible income (FDII). In the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, we made an accounting policy election to treat the future tax impacts of the GILTI provisions of the Tax Act
as a period cost to the extent applicable.
The income tax benefit for the three months ended
December 30, 2017
included certain discrete benefits of
$25,378
for the estimated impact of the Tax Act. The discrete benefits related to
$32,264
of estimated benefit from the remeasurement of our estimated net deferred tax liabilities, partially offset by
$6,886
of estimated expense associated with the mandatory deemed repatriation tax. The income tax benefit for fiscal year 2018 included certain discrete benefits of
$25,008
for the estimated impact of the Tax Act. The discrete benefits primarily related to
$31,647
of estimated benefit from the remeasurement of our estimated net deferred tax liabilities, partially offset by
$6,639
of estimated expense associated with the mandatory deemed repatriation tax.
As of
December 29, 2018
, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits was
$7,010
, of which
$4,529
would favorably affect our effective tax rate, if recognized. As of
September 29, 2018
, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits was
$6,158
, of which
$3,740
would favorably affect our effective tax rate, if recognized. As of
December 29, 2018
, we do
no
t expect significant changes in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months.
NOTE 13 SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Tangible Equity Units
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, we issued
1,150
TEUs in a registered public offering primarily to finance the acquisition of PCB, to repay amounts outstanding under our existing revolving credit facility and to pay related costs, fees and expenses. Total proceeds, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses were
$110,926
. Each TEU has a stated amount of
$100
per TEU and is comprised of a prepaid stock purchase contract and a senior amortizing note having a final installment payment date of July 1, 2019. We allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the TEUs between equity and debt based on the relative fair values of the respective components of each TEU. The fair value of the prepaid stock purchase contracts, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses, was recorded in additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the senior amortizing note, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses, was split between current maturities of long-term debt, net and long-term debt, less current maturities, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs directly associated with the TEU-related debt will be amortized using the effective interest rate method over the
three
-year term of the instrument.
The aggregate values assigned upon issuance to each component of the TEUs, based on the relative fair value of the respective components, were as follows:

Equity Component
Unless converted earlier at the option of the holder, each prepaid stock purchase contract will automatically settle on July 1, 2019. If converted prior to the automatic settlement date at the option of the holder, the minimum of
1.9841
shares of our common stock are delivered to the holder of each prepaid stock purchase contract. On the automatic settlement date, a minimum of
1.9841
shares and a maximum of
2.3810
shares of our common stock, subject to adjustment based upon the applicable market value discussed below, will be delivered to the holder of each prepaid stock purchase contract at the settlement date.
The number of shares of our common stock issuable upon settlement of each purchase contract on July 1, 2019 will be determined as follows:
|
|
•
|
if the applicable market value is equal to or greater than the threshold appreciation price of
$50.40
per share, holders will receive
1.9841
shares of common stock per purchase contract, or the minimum settlement rate
;
|
|
|
•
|
if the applicable market value is greater than the reference price of
$42.00
per share, but less than the threshold appreciation price of
$50.40
per share, holders will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to
$100
per TEU divided by the applicable market value; or
|
|
|
•
|
if the applicable market value is less than or equal to the reference price of
$42.00
per share, holders will receive
2.3810
shares of common stock per purchase contract, or the maximum settlement rate.
|
The "applicable market value" is defined as the average of the daily volume-weighted average price of the common stock on each of the
20
consecutive trading days beginning on, and including, the
23
rd scheduled trading day immediately preceding July 1, 2019.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017, certain holders of our TEUs elected to early convert the equity component on
473
of our outstanding TEUs at the minimum conversion rate of
1.9841
which resulted in the issuance of
939
shares of our common stock. During fiscal years 2019 and 2018, no holders of our TEUs elected to early convert the equity component of our outstanding TEUs. There were
677
units of the equity component of TEUs outstanding as of both
December 29, 2018
and
September 29, 2018
.
Debt Component
The amortizing senior note was issued with an initial principal amount of
$27,386
, or
$23.8136
per TEU. Equal quarterly cash installments of
$2.1875
per amortizing note are paid, which in the aggregate are equivalent to a
8.75%
cash distribution per year with respect to each
$100
stated amount per TEU. Each installment constitutes a payment of interest and partial repayment of principal.
Earnings Per Common Share
The TEUs have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share. The
1.9841
minimum shares to be issued are included in the calculation of basic weighted average shares outstanding. The
0.3969
difference between the minimum shares and the
2.3810
maximum shares are potentially dilutive, and accordingly, are included in our diluted earnings per share on a pro rata basis to the extent the applicable market value is higher than the reference price but less than the threshold appreciation price. See Note 14 for additional information regarding the calculation of earnings per share.
Capped Calls
In connection with the pricing of the TEUs sold in our public offering in fiscal year 2016, we purchased capped calls from third party banking institutions (Capped Calls) for
$7,935
. The initial Capped Calls were for
2,282
equivalent shares of our common stock with a strike price of
$50.40
, a cap price of
$58.80
and an expiration date of July 1, 2019. The value of the Capped Calls is settled with shares of our common stock, based on the approximate market value of our common stock at such time, and could be settled as the TEUs were early converted or settled upon expiration on July 1, 2019 (Capped Call Expiration). During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017, we settled approximately
10%
of the Capped Calls, which resulted in us receiving and retiring
12
shares of our common stock.
No
Capped Calls were settled during fiscal years 2019 and 2018.
On June 13, 2018, we amended the agreements with third party banking institutions for the outstanding Capped Calls (Capped Call Agreements) to modify the timing of settlement to be only upon expiration for all outstanding Capped Calls. Per the Capped Call Agreements, the outstanding Capped Calls are for
2,054
equivalent shares of our common stock with a strike price of
$50.40
, a cap price of
$57.97
. The Capped Calls will be automatically settled upon Capped Call Expiration with shares of our common stock based on the average market value of our common stock as defined in the Capped Call Agreements.
As of
December 29, 2018
, the range of shares of our common stock to be received for the outstanding Capped Calls was a minimum of
0
shares to a maximum of
268
shares, which will be realized if the average market value of our common stock as defined in the Capped Call Agreements is at or below
$50.40
or at
$57.97
, respectively, upon Capped Call Expiration.
NOTE 14 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the daily weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. The TEUs are assumed to be settled at the minimum settlement amount of
1.9841
shares per TEU when calculating weighted-average common shares outstanding for purposes of basic earnings per share.
Using the treasury stock method, diluted earnings per share includes the potentially dilutive effect of common shares issued in connection with outstanding stock-based compensation options and grants. The potentially dilutive effect of common shares issued in connection with outstanding stock options is determined based on the average market price for the period. For diluted earnings per share, the TEUs are assumed to be settled at a conversion factor based on our daily volume-weighted average price per share of our common stock for the
20
consecutive trading days preceding the end of the current fiscal quarter not to exceed
2.3810
shares of common stock per TEU.
Under the treasury stock method, shares associated with certain stock options have been excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding calculation because the exercise of those options would lead to a net reduction in common shares outstanding or anti-dilution. As a result, stock options to acquire
930
and
496
weighted common shares have been excluded from the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding calculation for the
three months ended December 29, 2018
and
December 30, 2017
, respectively.
In connection with the pricing of the TEUs, we purchased capped calls. The capped calls will not be reflected in the calculation of diluted earnings per share until settled as they will lead to a net reduction in common shares outstanding or anti-dilution. See Note 13 for additional information on our equity instruments.
Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated as follows:

NOTE 16 BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our Chief Executive Officer (the Chief Operating Decision Maker) regularly reviews financial information for our
two
reportable segments, Test & Simulation and Sensors. Test & Simulation manufactures and sells equipment and related software and services which are used by customers to characterize a product's mechanical properties or performance. Sensors manufactures and sells high-performance sensors which provide measurements of vibration, pressure, position, force and sound in a variety of applications.
In evaluating each segment's performance, our Chief Executive Officer focuses on income from operations. This measure excludes interest income and expense, income taxes and other non-operating items. Corporate expenses, including costs associated with various support functions such as human resources, information technology, legal, finance and accounting, and general and administrative costs are allocated to the reportable segments on the basis of revenue. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 29, 2018
and in Note 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Intersegment revenue is based on standard costs with reasonable mark-ups established between the reportable segments. All significant intersegment amounts are eliminated to arrive at consolidated financial results.
Financial information by reportable segment is as follows:

NOTE 18 BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
On November 21, 2018, we acquired all ownership interests of E2M for a cash purchase price of
$79,772
. Based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, E2M is a leading manufacturer of high force, electrically driven actuation systems, serving primarily the human-rated entertainment and training simulation markets. The acquisition of E2M expands our technology and product offerings for human-rated simulation systems and brings key regulatory approvals and customers in the flight simulation and entertainment markets. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The acquired assets, liabilities and operating results have been included in our financial statements within Test & Simulation from the date of acquisition. During the three months ended December 29, 2018, we included
$3,521
of revenue from E2M in our Consolidated Statements of Income. We funded the acquisition of E2M with borrowings on our Revolving Credit Facility. Costs of
$773
associated with the acquisition of E2M were expensed as incurred. Pro forma information related to the acquisition of E2M has not been included as the impact on our consolidated results of operations was not considered material.
The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed net of cash acquired, as of the date of acquisition:

The allocation of purchase price consideration is considered preliminary as of December 29, 2018 with provisional amounts primarily related to inventory, intangible assets, advanced payments to customers and certain tax related items included as our allocation process has not been completed. We expect to finalize the allocation of purchase price as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.
Goodwill was calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the total purchase price consideration and the fair value of the net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits that we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition. This resulted in a purchase price in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. The purchase price also included the fair value of other assets that were not identifiable, not separately recognizable under accounting rules (e.g., assembled workforce) or of immaterial value. All of the goodwill was assigned to Test & Simulation. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes.
The preliminary fair value of the acquired intangible assets was
$43,362
. The acquired intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful lives identified in the table above.
