In the first quarter of 2022, the Company acquired 100% of Efficient Hire, a provider of cloud recruiting, onboarding and human resources management solutions, within the Workforce Solutions operating segment, and Data Crédito, a consumer credit reporting agency in the Dominican Republic, within the International operating segment. These acquisitions expand the Company's data assets and product offerings and broaden our geographic footprint.

The Company will account for these acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed to be measured at fair value at the date of the acquisition. The purchase price allocations for the LawLogix and Midigator acquisitions are not yet finalized and open areas relate to measurement of intangible assets, income taxes and working capital, as well as the assignment of goodwill recognized in the transactions. For the acquisitions that occurred during the third quarter of 2022, management estimated the allocation of purchased intangible assets and goodwill based on the analysis of previous acquisitions within the Workforce Solutions and USIS operating segments. Accordingly, adjustments may be made to the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the valuation date.
