These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are expressed in U.S. dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The information furnished reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable at that time, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates. In particular, key estimates, judgments and assumptions include those related to: (i) revenue recognition, (ii) accounting for income taxes, (iii) testing of goodwill for impairment, (iv) the valuation of acquired intangible assets, (v) the valuation of long-lived assets, (vi) the recognition of contingencies, (vii) restructuring accruals, (viii) acquisition accruals and pre-acquisition contingencies, (ix) the valuation of stock options granted and obligations related to share-based payments, including the valuation of our long-term incentive plans, (x) the valuation of pension obligations, and (xi) the valuation of derivative instruments.
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 International PLC (Micro Focus), for a total purchase price of approximately $5.8 billion, inclusive of Micro Focus’ cash and debt, subject to final adjustments.
Concurrent with the announcement of the acquisition of Micro Focus (Micro Focus Acquisition), the Company entered into the Acquisition Term Loan and Bridge Loan (each as defined below) as well as certain derivative transactions. These derivative transactions were marked-to-market during the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, with the resulting unrealized gains (losses) on these derivatives recognized in Other Income (Expense) within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. On December 1, 2022, the Company issued and sold $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 6.90% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (Senior Secured Notes 2027) and amended the Acquisition Term Loan to increase commitments to an aggregate principal amount of $3.585 billion. In connection with the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes 2027 and increase in the Acquisition Term Loan, all remaining commitments under the Bridge Loan were reduced to zero and the Bridge Loan was terminated.
On January 31, 2023, we completed the Micro Focus Acquisition and repaid Micro Focus’ outstanding indebtedness. In connection with the financing of the Micro Focus Acquisition, we drew down the entire amount of the Acquisition Term Loan, less original issuance discount and other fees, and drew down $450.0 million under the Revolver (as defined below). We used proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes 2027 and cash on hand to fund the remaining purchase price consideration. The deal-contingent forward contracts and non-contingent forward contract, as described in Note 17 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” entered into to hedge certain foreign currency obligations in relation to the Micro Focus Acquisition, are expected to be settled on February 9, 2023.
The following Notes include details related to the Micro Focus Acquisition: Note 9 “Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets,” Note 10 “Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities,” Note 11 “Long-Term Debt,” Note 16 “Fair Value Measurement,” Note 17 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” Note 19 “Acquisitions”, Note 22 “Other Income (Expense), Net,” and Note 25 “Subsequent Events.”
