Acquisition of CVC Thermoset Specialties

On May 18, 2020, we completed our acquisition of CVC Thermoset Specialties (“CVC Thermoset Specialties Acquisition”), a North American specialty chemical manufacturer serving the industrial composites, adhesives and coatings markets. We acquired the business for $306 million from Emerald Performance Materials LLC, which is majority owned by affiliates of American Securities LLC, in an all-cash transaction funded from available liquidity. The acquired business is being integrated into our Advanced Materials segment. Transaction costs related to this acquisition were approximately nil and $5 million as of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and were recorded in other operating expenses, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

We have accounted for the CVC Thermoset Specialties Acquisition using the acquisition method. As such, we analyzed the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The preliminary allocation of acquisition cost to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

The acquisition cost allocation is preliminary pending final determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including final valuation of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, leases and deferred taxes. Intangible assets acquired included in this preliminary allocation consist primarily of trademarks, trade secrets and customer relationships. The applicable amortization periods are still being assessed. For purposes of this preliminary allocation of fair value, we have assigned any excess of the acquisition cost over the estimated preliminary fair value to goodwill. The estimated goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to projected future profitable growth in our Advanced Materials specialty portfolio and synergies. We expect that none of the estimated goodwill arising from the acquisition will be deductible for income tax purposes. It is possible that material changes to this preliminary allocation of acquisition cost could occur.

The acquired business had revenues and net loss of $25 million and $4 million, respectively, for the period from the date of acquisition to September 30, 2020.

If this acquisition were to have occurred on January 1, 2019, the following estimated pro forma revenues, net income and net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation and Huntsman International would have been reported (dollars in millions):
