On January 23, 2017, Liberty completed the acquisition of 100% of the fully diluted equity interests of Delta Topco, the parent company of Formula 1 (the 鈥淪econd Closing鈥�), at which time Liberty began consolidating Formula 1. The transaction price for the acquisition represented an enterprise value for Formula 1 of approximately $8.0 billion and an equity value of approximately $4.4 billion. The total consideration at the time of closing was $4.7 billion comprised of $3.05 billion of cash and approximately $1.6 billion represented by approximately 56 million newly issued shares of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock.

In connection with the transaction, Liberty entered into a $500 million margin loan on November 8, 2016, secured by shares of Live Nation and other public equity securities held by Liberty (the 鈥樷�楲ive Nation Margin Loan鈥欌��). Liberty drew approximately $350 million to use for the purchase of Formula 1 on January 20, 2017. See note 11 for additional discussion regarding the Live Nation Margin Loan.

On January 23, 2017, the Company issued 62 million new shares of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock, which were subject to market co-ordination and lock-up agreements, to certain third party investors at a price per share of $25.00 to increase the cash component of the consideration payable to the selling shareholders in the Formula 1 acquisition by $1.55 billion.

Also on January 23, 2017, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds of its $450 million offering of 1% Cash Convertible Notes due 2023, as discussed in note 11, to further increase the cash consideration payable to the selling shareholders by approximately $400 million.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the identifiable net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce, value associated with future customers, continued innovation and noncontractual relationships. Formula 1 amortizable intangible assets were comprised of an agreement with the F茅d茅ration Internationale de l鈥橝utomobile (the 鈥淔IA,鈥� and the agreement, the 鈥淔IA Agreement鈥�) ($3.6 billion with a remaining useful life of approximately 35 years) and customer relationships of $1.9 billion with a weighted average remaining life of approximately 11.5 years. 听The FIA owns the World Championship and has granted Formula 1 the exclusive commercial rights to the World Championship until the end of 2110.听None of the acquired goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Included in net earnings (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is a loss of approximately $167 million related to Formula 1鈥檚 operations since the date of acquisition, which includes amortization expense of approximately $70 million, primarily related to the amortization of the fair value step-up of amortizable intangible assets acquired.
