At December 31, 2021 and 2020 no indicator of impairment related to intangible assets existed, so the Group did not perform and impairment test.

Intangible Asset Acquisition

 

In addition, on March 11, 2021, with effective date April 1, 2021, dLocal signed a contract to acquire certain assets from Primeiropay S.A.R.L and PrimeiroPay Technology GmbH (“Primeiropay”) in accordance with the Transfer of a Going Concern Agreement (“the Agreement”) signed between the parties, for a consideration of USD 40.0 million, of which USD 1.33 million is contingent consideration (subject to the achievement of the “earn-out”) and USD 38.67 million was an immediate cash consideration, with an effective date of April 1, 2021. According to Management’s estimates, the fair value of the contingent consideration is USD 665, and would be paid during 2022.

 

Primeiropay is an international payment service provider that delivers payment services for international merchants that want to accept payments from their international customers without setting up a local entity through processing all cards and payment methods domestically in local currencies. The asset acquisition is expected to increase the Group’s market share through the incorporation of new global merchants processing payments in emerging markets. Details of the purchase consideration are as follows:

The Group applied the concentration test detailed on Paragraph B7B of IFRS 3 – Business Combinations, to assess whether the acquired set of activities and assets were or not a business. The concentration test was met since substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets (i.e. intangible assets related to merchant agreements) and the intellectual property that is attached to them. Consequently, the transaction was classified as an asset acquisition, outside of the scope of IFRS 3 (Paragraph 2b).

 

Recognition of assets acquired

 

On April 1, 2021 the Group recognized the assets acquired (mainly merchant agreements) as a single intangible asset in accordance with IAS 38 – Intangible Assets. The Group estimated the amortization period for such single intangible asset to be 18.75 years.
