Fiscal 2023 Acquisitions
Proposed Acquisition of Micro Focus
On August 25, 2022, we announced an agreement on the terms of an all-cash offer (through our wholly-owned subsidiary), to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Micro Focus, at a price of 532 pence per share, for a total purchase price of approximately $6.0 billion, inclusive of Micro Focus’ cash and debt. The all-cash consideration for the Micro Focus Acquisition is expected to be funded by new debt, cash on hand and a draw on our Revolver. Concurrent with the announcement of the Micro Focus Acquisition, the Company entered into the Acquisition Term Loan and Bridge Loan (see Note 11 “Long-Term Debt”) as well as certain derivative transactions (see Note 17 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”). These derivative transactions were marked-to-market during the three months ended September 30, 2022, with the resulting unrealized gains (losses) on these derivatives recognized in other income (expense) within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (see Note 22 “Other Income (Expense), Net”). On October 18, 2022 the shareholders of Micro Focus approved the all-cash offer. The Micro Focus Acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of calendar 2023, subject to the satisfaction (or, where applicable, waiver) of certain conditions. See Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Acquisition-related costs for Micro Focus included in “Special Charges (Recoveries)” in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were $4.4 million.
Fiscal 2022 Acquisitions
Acquisition of Zix Corporation
On December 23, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interest in Zix, a leader in software as a service (SaaS) based email encryption, threat protection and compliance cloud solutions for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB). Total consideration for Zix was $894.5 million paid in cash, inclusive of cash acquired and $18.6 million relating to the cash settlement of pre-acquisition vested share-based compensation that was previously accrued but since paid as of March 31, 2022. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805 “Business Combinations” (Topic 805), this acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. We believe the acquisition increases our position in the data protection, threat management, email security and compliance solutions spaces.
The results of operations of Zix have been consolidated with those of OpenText beginning December 23, 2021.
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their preliminary fair values as of December 23, 2021, are set forth below:
Current assets (inclusive of cash acquired of $38.3 million)
$74,230 
Non-current tangible assets13,450 
Intangible customer assets212,400 
Intangible technology assets92,650 
Liabilities assumed(79,941)
Total identifiable net assets312,789 
Goodwill581,672 
Net assets acquired$894,461 
The goodwill of $581.7 million is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. There is $103.7 million of goodwill that is deductible for tax purposes.
The fair value of current assets acquired includes accounts receivable with a fair value of $28.4 million. The gross amount receivable was $32.7 million, of which $4.3 million is expected to be uncollectible.
Acquisition-related costs for Zix included in “Special Charges (Recoveries)” in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were $0.2 million.
Pre-acquisition equity incentives of $26.4 million were replaced upon acquisition by equivalent value cash settlements to be settled in accordance with the original vesting dates, primarily over the next two years. Of these equity incentives, $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were included in “Special Charges (Recoveries).”
The finalization of the above purchase price allocation is pending the finalization of the valuation of fair value for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including intangible assets and taxation-related balances as well as for potential unrecorded liabilities. We expect to finalize this determination during our quarter ending December 31, 2022.
Acquisition of Bricata Inc.
On November 24, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interest in Bricata Inc. (Bricata) for $17.8 million. In accordance with Topic 805, this acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. We believe the acquisition strengthens our OpenText Security and Protection Cloud with Network Detection and Response technologies.
The results of operations of Bricata have been consolidated with those of OpenText beginning November 24, 2021.
