| Acquisitions | Acquisitions Allocation of the total purchase consideration for acquisitions we completed during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 is summarized as follows (in millions):
The total purchase consideration related to acquisitions consisted primarily of cash consideration. Total transaction costs related to acquisition activities were $11 million and $12 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively. These transaction costs were expensed as incurred in general and administrative expenses (“G&A”) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The purchase price allocation for acquisitions completed during recent periods is preliminary and subject to revision as additional information about fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. Additional information that existed as of the acquisition date but is currently unknown to us may become known during the remainder of the measurement period, a period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. The goodwill generated from the acquisitions completed during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 is primarily related to expected synergies. The goodwill is generally not deductible for income tax purposes. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the operating results of each acquisition from the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations and the revenue and net income subsequent to the acquisition date for the acquisitions completed during the first nine months of fiscal 2026 have not been presented because the effects of the acquisitions were not material to our financial results. Compensation Expense Related to Acquisitions In connection with our acquisitions, we have agreed to pay certain additional amounts contingent upon the continued employment with Cisco of certain employees of the acquired entities. The following table summarizes the compensation expense related to acquisitions (in millions):
