Acquisition of ClipperCreek, Inc. (“ClipperCreek”)
On December 31, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the shares of ClipperCreek, a privately-held company. ClipperCreek offers electric vehicle (“EV”) charging solutions for residential and commercial customers in the U.S. As part of the purchase price, the Company paid approximately $113.1 million in cash on December 31, 2021. The Company expects this acquisition will allow the Company to enter into the growing EV charging market and provides for cross-selling opportunities.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method, and accordingly, the total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values on the acquisition date.
In addition to the purchase price summarized above, the Company will be obligated to issue up to approximately $40.0 million in shares of common stock of the Company payable in the first quarter of 2023, subject to achievement of certain revenue and operational targets. As the additional payments require continuous employment of certain key employees of ClipperCreek and are subject to other conditions, these payments are being accounted for as post-combination expense and will be recognized ratably over the one year period presuming conditions will be met.
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, which are subject to change within the measurement period as the fair value assessments are finalized (in thousands):
Net tangible assets acquired$8,387 
Intangible assets37,800 
Goodwill66,916 
Net assets acquired$113,103 
The excess of the consideration paid over the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill resulting from the acquisition. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expected synergies in the Company’s solar offerings and cross-selling opportunities. The entire goodwill amount is expected to be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes over 15 years.
Intangible assets consist primarily of trade name and order backlog. Trade name intangible is attributable to marketing goods and services under the ClipperCreek brand and order backlog pertains to purchase orders with customers yet to be fulfilled.
The following table shows the fair value of the separately identifiable intangible assets at the time of acquisition and the period over which each intangible asset will be amortized:
