Acquisition

On November 16, 2015, the Company infused cash of $1,780 thousand into Liqxtal Technology Inc. (“Liqxtal”) in exchange for 64 percent of the outstanding common shares of Liqxtal. Acquisition costs, which are charged to expense as incurred, were insignificant. The results of Liqxtal’s operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since that date. The amounts of Liqxtal’s revenues and losses included in the consolidated statements of income from the acquisition date to the period ended December 31, 2015 were nil and $30 thousand, respectively. Liqxtal mainly develops the technology on Liquid Crystal Lens (“LC Lens”). As a result of the acquisition, the Company is expected to further strengthen the Company’s competitiveness in the head-mounted displays with the addition of technology resources.

The following table summarizes the amounts of estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition.
