OAKDALE, Minn. -- Imation Corp. (NYSE:IMN), a worldwide leader in removable data storage, today announced it has completed the previously announced acquisition of the assets of Memcorp, Inc. and Memcorp Asia Limited (together known as "Memcorp") from privately held Hopper Radio of Florida, Inc.

The purchase price was $27.3 million in cash and $37.5 million in three-year notes, plus a potential earn-out of up to $20 million over three years, dependent on financial performance of the purchased business.

"Bringing the assets of Memcorp into Imation builds on our recent successful acquisition of the Memorex brand and enables us to extend the Memorex brand further into select consumer electronics and accessories."
