15.     Contingent consideration


Upon the acquisition of ZF Array on August 31, 2011, the Company paid $4 million in cash; less cash acquired of $967 and accrued $2.4 million for contingent consideration. Contingent consideration was based on financial performance of the acquired company’s operations for a 24-month period following the acquisition date, to a maximum of $2.4 million. Based on the results to date and anticipated future performance during 2012 the fair value of the contingent consideration liability was reduced resulting in recognition of a gain of $650. Based on the results to date and anticipated future performance during fiscal 2013, it was evident that the fair value of the contingent consideration liability required an increase resulting in recognition of a loss of $274. The final total aggregate contingent consideration liability which was paid over the course of the 24-month period was $2,024. The final payment of the contingent consideration was paid in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.
