 The transaction costs arose mainly on the acquisitions of Rohrback Cosasco Systems Inc. (RCS), Advanced and Plasticspritzerei AG, which were acquired in the prior year. The charge of £1,581,000 to contingent consideration related mainly to a revision in the estimate of the remaining MST payable from US$6,504,000 to US$9,061,000. The £2,303,000 credit to contingent consideration related to a revision in the estimate of the remaining ASL payable from £2,500,000 to £197,000. The release of fair value          
 adjustments to inventory arose from revaluing the inventories of RCS and Advanced at acquisition.

 6  Earnings per ordinary share Basic earnings per ordinary share are calculated using the weighted average of 378,412,359 shares in issue during the year (net of shares purchased by the Company and held as own shares) (2015: 378,328,541). Diluted earnings per ordinary share are calculated using the weighted average of 378,412,359 shares (2015: 378,475,804), which includes dilutive potential ordinary shares of nil (2015: 147,263). Dilutive potential ordinary shares were calculated from those exercisable     
 share options where the exercise price is less than the average price of the Company's ordinary shares during the year.Adjusted earnings are calculated as earnings from continuing operations excluding the amortisation of acquired intangible assets; acquisition items; profit or loss on disposal of operations; and the associated taxation thereon. The Directors consider that adjusted earnings represent a more consistent measure of underlying performance. A reconciliation of earnings and the effect on basic    
 earnings per share figures is as follows:

 The proposed final dividend is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 21 July 2016 and has not been included as a liability in these financial statements. If approved, the final dividend for 2015/16 will be paid on 17 August 2016 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 15 July 2016.The Company offers a Dividend Reinvestment Plan ('DRIP') to enable shareholders to elect to have their cash dividends reinvested in Halma shares. Shareholders who wish to elect   
 for the DRIP for the forthcoming final dividend, but have not already done so, should return a DRIP mandate form to the Company's Registrars no later than 27 July 2016.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
 8  Acquisitions In accounting for acquisitions, adjustments are made to the book values of the net assets of the companies acquired to reflect their fair values to the Group. Acquired inventories are valued at fair value adopting Group bases and any liabilities for warranties relating to past trading are recognised. Other previously unrecognised assets and liabilities at acquisition are included and accounting policies are aligned with those of the Group where appropriate.The Group made four acquisitions   
 during the year: Value Added Solutions LLC (VAS); Firetrace USA, LLC (Firetrace); Visiometrics, S.L. (Visiometrics); and CenTrak Inc. (CenTrak). The four acquisitions in the year contributed £21,798,000 of revenue and £3,128,000 of profit after tax for the year ended 2 April 2016. If these acquisitions had been held since the start of the financial year, it is estimated the Group's reported revenue and profit after tax would have been £38,362,000 and £5,565,000 higher respectively.The combined fair value   
 adjustments made for all acquisitions, excluding acquired intangible assets recognised and deferred tax thereon, resulted in net adjustments to goodwill of negative £3,262,000.Below are summaries of the assets and liabilities acquired and the purchase consideration of:a)    The total of VAS, Firetrace, Visiometrics and CenTrak;b)    VAS, on a stand-alone basis;c)     Firetrace, on a stand-alone basis;d)    Visiometrics, on a stand-alone basis; ande)   CenTrak, on a stand-alone basis.

 Due to their contractual dates, the fair value of receivables acquired (shown above) approximate to the gross contractual amounts receivable. The amount of gross contractual receivables not expected to be recovered is immaterial. There are no material contingent liabilities recognised in accordance with paragraph 23 of IFRS 3 (revised).£919,000 and £17,297,000 of goodwill arising on the acquisitions of VAS and Firetrace respectively are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.As at the date of approval  
 of the financial statements, the acquisition accounting for VAS and all prior year acquisitions is complete. Other than VAS, the accounting for certain balances on current year acquisitions is provisional. These balances mainly comprise the valuation of CenTrak's acquired intangible assets, as a result of the proximity of its acquisition date to the year end, and the initial considerations which are subject to the net tangible asset adjustments and other contractual clauses being agreed.

 The Group acquired the entire interest in Value Added Solutions, LLC on 19 May 2015 for an initial cash consideration of US$5,000,000 (£3,228,000). The maximum contingent consideration payable is US$1,500,000 (£968,000). The current provision of US$1,000,000 (£645,000) represents the fair value of the estimated payable based on performance to date and the expectation of future cash flows. The contingent consideration is payable based on annualised gross margin for an eighteen month performance period to 1  
 October 2016.VAS forms part of the Medical sector and operates as a 'bolt-on' to Diba Industries Inc. (Diba). Diba creates innovative fluid handling solutions that are invaluable to device OEMs, while VAS specialises in precision plastic machining, production of thermally bonded manifolds, and fluid component integrations. VAS adds complementary expertise, capabilities, and products that allow Diba to provide broader solutions to its existing customers, as well as expand its customer base. VAS's production 
 facility is located in Berlin, Connecticut, USA, approximately one hour from Diba's headquarters. The excess of the fair value of the consideration paid over the fair value of the assets acquired is represented by customer related intangibles of £1,451,000; and technology related intangibles of £432,000; with residual goodwill arising of £1,576,000. The goodwill represents: a)    the technical expertise of the acquired workforce;b)    the opportunity to leverage this expertise across some of Halma's        
 businesses; and c)     the ability to exploit the Group's existing customer base.The VAS acquisition contributed £1,460,000 of revenue and £131,000 of profit after tax for the year ended 2 April 2016. If this acquisition had been held since the start of the financial year, it is estimated that the Group's reported revenue and profit after tax would have been £322,000 and £11,000 higher respectively.

 On 5 October 2015 the Group acquired the entire interest in Firetrace USA, LLC and its subsidiary companies for a total cash consideration of US$110,000,000 (£72,675,000), adjustable based on the closing date net assets. The adjustment was determined to be US$nil. No contingent consideration is payable. It is estimated that US$919,000 (£607,000) of this consideration will be repaid. Firetrace, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA, designs and manufactures automatic fire detection and suppression systems for   
 installation in small enclosed environments to protect people and critical assets. It will continue to operate out of its current facilities and existing management will remain in place. Firetrace has become part of the Infrastructure Safety sector and further extends the Group's product offering within the fire protection industry. The excess of the fair value of the consideration paid over the fair value of the assets acquired is represented by customer related intangibles of £28,686,000; technology      
 related intangibles of £3,861,000; and trademarks, brands and patents of £4,715,000 with residual goodwill arising of £24,348,000. The residual goodwill represents: a)    the technical expertise of the acquired workforce;b)    future business from new customers; and c)     the opportunity to develop new technologies and products to support future growth.The Firetrace acquisition contributed £15,257,000 of revenue and £2,404,000 of profit after tax for the year ended 2 April 2016. If this acquisition had    
 been held since the start of the financial year, it is estimated that the Group's reported revenue and profit after tax would have been £11,444,000 and £2,978,000 higher respectively.

 On 16 December 2015 the Group acquired the entire share capitals of Visiometrics S.L., located outside Barcelona, Spain, and Visual Performance Diagnostics, Inc.,located in California, USA, collectively Visiometrics. Initial consideration paid for the company was E18,000,000 (£13,144,000) adjustable for the final agreed value of net tangible assets and cash at closing, for which E327,000 (£239,000) is owed to the Group at the balance sheet date. E9,000,000 (£6,558,000) was paid on closing into escrow;      
 E6,300,000 to be released to the vendors immediately on reaching E2,000,000 EBITDA in any 12 month period ending December 2016 (the EBITDA Reserve Goal); and the remaining E2,700,000, less any indemnity claim, released to the vendors in March 2018 dependent on reaching the EBITDA Reserve Goal. Management's current best estimate is that the EBITDA Reserve Goal will be met. Further contingent consideration is payable based on two elements; Royalty and the Core earn-out. The Royalty is payable annually over   
 five years to December 2020 at a percentage of the gross margin on sales made to one customer. The estimated payable is E10,242,000 (£7,453,000). The Core earn-out is payable annually over three years to December 2018 based on a multiple of EBITDA over a target threshold. The estimated payable for the Core earn-out is E11,114,000 (£8,088,000). The undiscounted total estimated contingent consideration payable for the EBITDA Reserve Goal, Royalty and Core earn-outs is therefore E30,356,000 (£22,099,000). The 
 fair value of contingent consideration payable is estimated based on performance observed to date and the expectation of likely future cash flows, and is discounted at the Group's forecast cost of borrowing over the earn-out period. The fair value recognised is E29,294,000 (£21,345,000). The maximum contingent consideration payable is E109,000,000 subject to a maximum total consideration of E125,000,000.Visiometrics designs, manufactures and markets ophthalmic diagnostic instruments. It is part of the      
 Medical sector, which includes devices used to assess eye health, assist with eye surgery and primary care applications. The CEO and management team will continue to operate the business out of its current locations.The excess of the fair value of the consideration paid over the fair value of the assets acquired is represented by customer related intangibles of £12,110,000; and technology related intangibles of £2,716,000; with residual goodwill arising of £22,489,000. The residual goodwill represents: a)   
  the technical expertise of the acquired workforce;b)    the opportunity to leverage this expertise across some of Halma's businesses; and c)     the opportunity to develop new technologies and products to support future growth.The Visiometrics acquisition contributed £861,000 of revenue and £260,000 of profit after tax for the year ended 2 April 2016. If this acquisition had been held since the start of the financial year, it is estimated that the Group's reported revenue and profit after tax would have   
 been £2,649,000 higher and £45,000 lower respectively.
