Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations Ipswitch Acquisition On April 30, 2019, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of Ipswitch, Inc. (“Ipswitch”) from Roger Greene (the “Seller”) pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 28, 2019, by and among Progress, Ipswitch and the Seller. The acquisition was completed for an aggregate purchase price of $225.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments as further described in the Stock Purchase Agreement, which was paid in cash. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, $22.5 million of the purchase price was deposited into an escrow account to secure certain indemnification and other potential obligations of the Seller to Progress. This escrow was released in full in May 2020 upon expiration of the twelve-month escrow period. The Seller also received an award of approximately $2.0 million in Progress restricted stock as consideration for the Seller entering into a non-competition agreement for three years as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. Ipswitch enables approximately 24,000 small and medium-sized businesses and enterprises to provide secure data sharing and ensure high-performance infrastructure availability. Through this acquisition, we bolstered our core offerings to small and medium-sized businesses and enterprises, enabling those businesses to respond faster to business demands and to improve productivity. We funded the acquisition through a combination of existing cash resources and a $185.0 million term loan, which is part of our $401.0 million term loan and revolving line of credit (Note 7). The purchase price has been allocated to Ipswitch’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the total consideration over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. We recorded measurement period adjustments in accordance with FASB’s guidance regarding business combinations in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019 and the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 based on our valuation and purchase price allocation procedures. The measurement period adjustments, which were completed during the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, resulted in a decrease to goodwill of $0.6 million, primarily due to a decrease to the sales tax reserve, partially offset by increased accrued expenses. The following table discloses the net assets acquired in the business combination (in thousands):

The fair value of the intangible assets has been estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value. The cash flows are based on estimates used to value the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The valuation assumptions take into consideration the Company's estimates of customer attrition, technology obsolescence, and revenue growth projections. Based on the valuation, the acquired intangible assets are comprised of customer relationships of approximately $66.6 million, existing technology of approximately $33.1 million, and trade names of approximately $9.6 million. Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value. The valuation of the assumed deferred revenue was based on our contractual commitment to provide post-contract customer support to Ipswitch customers and future contractual performance obligations under existing hosting arrangements. The fair value of this assumed liability was based on the estimated cost plus a reasonable margin to fulfill these service obligations. A significant portion of the deferred revenue was recognized in the 12 months following the acquisition. We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of $117.0 million of goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes. An election was made under Section 338(h)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code for Ipswitch to treat the transaction as a sale all of its assets on the acquisition date and subsequent liquidation. As a result, the identifiable intangible assets and goodwill are deductible for tax purposes. As previously noted, the Seller received a restricted stock award of approximately $2.0 million, subject to continued compliance with the three-year non-compete agreement. We concluded that the restricted stock award is not a compensation arrangement and we recorded the fair value of the award as an intangible asset separate from goodwill. We will recognize intangible asset amortization expense over the term of the agreement, which is 3 years. We recorded $0.5 million of amortization expense related to this restricted stock award for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 in operating expenses on our condensed consolidated statement of operations. Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition restructuring and related charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, we incurred approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs, respectively, which are included in acquisition-related expenses on our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The operations of Ipswitch are included in our operating results as part of the OpenEdge segment from the date of acquisition. The amount of revenue of Ipswitch included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during each of the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020 was approximately $17.6 million and $50.1 million, respectively. The amount of revenue of Ipswitch included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2019 was approximately $10.7 million and $14.0 million, respectively. We determined that disclosing the amount of Ipswitch related earnings included in the consolidated statements of operations is impracticable, as certain operations of Ipswitch were integrated into the operations of the Company from the date of acquisition. Pro Forma Information The following pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Progress and Ipswitch as if the acquisition had occurred on December 1, 2017 after giving effect to certain pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments reflected below include only those adjustments that are directly attributable to the Ipswitch acquisition and factually supportable. These pro forma adjustments include (i) a decrease in revenue from Ipswitch due to the beginning balance of deferred revenue being adjusted to reflect the fair value of the acquired balance, (ii) a net increase in amortization expense to record amortization expense for the $111.3 million of acquired identifiable intangible assets and to eliminate historical amortization of Ipswitch intangible assets, (iii) an increase in interest expense to record interest for the period presented as a result of the new credit facility entered into by Progress in connection with the acquisition, and (iv) the income tax effect of the adjustments made at the statutory tax rate of the U.S. (approximately 24.5%). In addition, prior to the acquisition Ipswitch did not pay entity level corporate tax, with the exception of some states, because it was registered as an S-Corporation. Therefore, we applied the statutory tax rate of the U.S. (approximately 24.5%) to the income before tax of Ipswitch as if the acquisition had occurred on December 1, 2017. The pro forma financial information does not reflect any adjustments for anticipated expense savings resulting from the acquisition and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have actually occurred had the transaction been consummated on December 1, 2017. These results are prepared in accordance with ASC 606.
