Business Acquisition

 

On October 25, 2019, the Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common shares of Func Food Group OYJ (“Func Food”) for approximately $24.2 million, which consisted of $14.8 million of cash and $9.4 million of bond issuances (net of bond discount of $476 thousand) to restructure and settle Func Food’s pre-existing debt. Func Food is a marketer and distributor of nutritional supplements, health food products and beverages that support sport activities and healthy living and lifestyles in Finland, Sweden, and Norway. Func Food has been the Nordic distributor of Celsius products since 2015 and, as a result of the acquisition, the Company expects to further increase its Nordic market share by leveraging collaborations, revamping its marketing strategy and focusing on core products. It also expects to reduce costs through economies of scale.

 

The acquisition of Func Food will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The accounts receivable balance as of October 25, 2019 from Fund Food and it’s subsidiaries amounted to $4.6 million, as part of the consolidation process this amount will be treated as an Intercompany balance. As a result of the limited time since the acquisition date and the effort required to conform the financial statements to the Company’s practices and policies, the initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete at the time of this filing. As a result, the Company is unable to provide the amounts recognized as of the acquisition date for the major classes of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and goodwill. Also, the Company is unable to provide pro forma revenues and earnings of the combined entity. This information will be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
