Stitcher
On October 16, 2020, Sirius XM acquired certain assets and liabilities of Stitcher from The E.W. Scripps Company and certain of its subsidiaries ("Scripps") for $266 in cash, which amount includes net working capital adjustments. The agreement provides that Sirius XM will potentially make up to $60 in additional contingent payments to Scripps based on Stitcher achieving certain financial metrics in 2020 and 2021. The total purchase consideration of $302 includes $36 related to the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a probability-weighted cash flow model and will be remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting period. Stitcher is included in our Pandora reporting unit.
