Note 4 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
On July 31, 2014, the Company completed the acquisitions of Beats Music, LLC, which offers a subscription streaming music service,
and Beats Electronics, LLC, which makes Beats®headphones, speakers and audio software (collectively, “Beats”). The total purchase
price consideration for these acquisitions was $2.6 billion, which consisted primarily of cash, of which $2.2 billion was allocated to
goodwill, $636 million to acquired intangible assets and $258 million to net liabilities assumed. Concurrent with the close of the
acquisitions, the Company repaid $295 million of existing Beats outstanding debt to third-party creditors. In conjunction with the Beats
acquisitions, the Company issued approximately 5.1 million shares of its common stock to certain former equity holders of Beats. The
restricted stock was valued at approximately $485 million based on the Company’s common stock on the acquisition date. The majority
of these shares, valued at approximately $417 million, will vest over time based on continued employment with Apple.
The Company also completed various other business acquisitions during 2014 for an aggregate cash consideration, net of cash acquired,
of $957 million, of which $828 million was allocated to goodwill, $257 million to acquired intangible assets and $128 million to net liabilities
assumed.
