NOTE 9 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On December 8, 2016, we completed our acquisition of all issued and outstanding shares of LinkedIn Corporation, the world’s largest professional network on the Internet, for a total purchase price of $27.0 billion. The purchase price consisted primarily of cash of $26.9 billion. The acquisition is expected to accelerate the growth of LinkedIn, Office 365, and Dynamics 365. The financial results of LinkedIn have been included in our consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition.

The allocation of the purchase price to goodwill was completed as of June 30, 2017. The major classes of assets and liabilities to which we allocated the purchase price were as follows:

(In millions)


Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,328
Short-term investments		2,110
Other current assets		697
Property and equipment		1,529
Intangible assets		7,887
Goodwill ⁽^a⁾		16,803
Short-term debt ^(b)		(1,323	)
Other current liabilities		(1,117	)
Deferred income taxes		(774	)
Other		(131	)


Total purchase price	$	27,009

(a)	Goodwill was assigned to our Productivity and Business Processes segment. The goodwill was primarily attributed to increased synergies that are expected to be achieved from the integration of LinkedIn. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

(b)

Convertible senior notes issued by LinkedIn on November 12, 2014, substantially all of which were redeemed after our acquisition of LinkedIn. The remaining $18 million of notes are not redeemable and are included in long-term debt on our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 12 – Debt for further information.

Following are the details of the purchase price allocated to the intangible assets acquired:

(In millions)	Amount		Weighted Average Life


Customer-related	$	3,607		7 years
Marketing-related (trade names)		2,148		20 years
Technology-based		2,109		3 years
Contract-based		23		5 years


Fair value of intangible assets acquired	$	7,887		9 years

These pro forma results were based on estimates and assumptions, which we believe are reasonable. They are not the results that would have been realized had we been a combined company during the periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of our consolidated results of operations in future periods. The pro forma results include adjustments related to purchase accounting, primarily amortization of intangible assets. Acquisition costs and other nonrecurring charges were immaterial and are included in the earliest period presented.
