Note 11Acquisitions  In January 2019, the Company acquired SSI Controls Technologies (SSI), the sensor manufacturing division of SSI Technologies, Inc., for approximately $400 , net of cash acquired, plus a performance-related contingent payment. SSI, which is headquartered in the United States (Wisconsin), is a leading designer and manufacturer of sensors and sensing solutions for the global automotive and industrial markets. The acquisition of SSI is not material to the Company. The contingent consideration payment is based on certain 2019 revenue and profitability levels of SSI. The Company determined the fair value of this liability using Level 3 unobservable inputs, such as probability weighted payout projections, and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (Note 5). The contingent consideration is payable in 2020 and recorded in Other accrued expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2019.  During the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, the Company completed nine acquisitions, including SSI, for $937.4 , net of cash acquired. All but one of the acquisitions are in the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment. In 2019, acquisitions resulted in the recognition of $784.6 of goodwill and $111.8 of definite-lived intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships and proprietary technology, with the remainder of the purchase price being allocated to other identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and noncontrolling interests assumed. These definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized based upon the underlying pattern of economic benefit as reflected by the future net cash inflows, with the vast majority having useful lives ranging from 5 to 10 years . The excess purchase price over the fair value of the underlying net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill, which primarily represents the value of the assembled workforce along with other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Company expects that approximately $455 of the goodwill recognized from acquisitions in 2019 will be deductible for tax purposes. The Company is in the process of completing its analyses of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company anticipates that the final assessments of values will not differ materially from the preliminary assessments. The operating results of the 2019 acquisitions have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2019, since their respective dates of acquisition. Pro forma financial information related to these acquisitions has not been presented, since these acquisitions were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Companys financial results.  During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, the Company completed three acquisitions, all in the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment, for $158.9, net of cash acquired. The Company has completed its analyses of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for all 2018 acquisitions. The acquisitions in 2018 were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Companys financial results, and therefore, pro forma financial information related to these acquisitions has not been presented.  Acquisition-related Expenses  In 2019, the Company incurred approximately $25.4 ($21.0 after-tax) of acquisition-related expenses primarily related to the amortization of $15.7 related to the value associated with acquired backlog (primarily related to the SSI acquisition), with the remainder representing external transaction costs. In 2018, the Company incurred approximately $8.5 ($7.2 after-tax) of acquisition-related expenses in the fourth quarter related to external transaction costs. In 2017, the Company incurred approximately $4.0 ($3.7 after-tax) of acquisition-related expenses in the second quarter related to external transaction costs. Such acquisition-related expenses are separately presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
