The goodwill related to DataX Ltd. is included in the USIS operating segment and the goodwill related to the other 2018 acquisitions is included in the Workforce Solutions and International operating segments. The goodwill related to the 2018 acquisitions is not deductible for tax purposes. The 2017 goodwill related to ID Watchdog, Inc. and Mercury is included in the GCS and International operating segments, respectively, and is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquired Intangible Assets Fair Value and Weighted-Average Useful Life
The primary reasons the purchase price of these acquisitions exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired, which resulted in the recognition of goodwill, were expanded growth opportunities from new or enhanced product offerings and geographies, cost savings from the elimination of duplicative activities, and the acquisition of an assembled workforce that are not recognized as assets apart from goodwill.
