Red Cat Holdings (“Red Cat” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in February 1984. Since April 2016, the Company’s primary business has been to provide products, services and solutions to the drone industry which it presently does through its four wholly owned subsidiaries. Teal Drones is a leader in commercial and government Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) technology. Fat Shark is a provider of First Person View (FPV) video goggles to the drone industry. Rotor Riot sells FPV drones and equipment to the consumer marketplace through its digital storefront located at www.rotorriot.com.

Corporate developments during the two years ended April 30, 2022 include:

  

  A. Fat Shark Acquisition

 

On September 30, 2020, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (“Share Purchase Agreement”) with Greg French (“French”), the founder and sole shareholder of Fat Shark Holdings (“Fat Shark”), to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Fat Shark and its subsidiaries. The transaction closed on November 2, 2020 and was valued at $8,354,076 based on (i) the issuance of 5,227,273 shares of common stock with a value of $6,351,076 on the date of closing (ii) a senior secured promissory note in the original principal amount of $1,753,000 which matures on November 1, 2023, and (iii) a cash payment of $250,000. The Share Purchase Agreement included indemnification provisions, a two year non-compete agreement, and registration rights for the shares issued in the transaction.

 

A summary of the purchase price and its related allocation was as follows:

 

Shares issued  $6,351,076 
Promissory note issued   1,753,000 
Cash   250,000 
Total Purchase Price  $8,354,076 

 

Assets acquired   
Cash   201,632 
Accounts receivable   249,159 
Other assets   384,232 
Inventory   223,380 
Brand name   1,144,000 
Proprietary technology   272,000 
Non-compete agreement   16,000 
Total assets acquired   2,490,403 
Liabilities assumed     
Accounts payable and accrued expenses   279,393 
Customer deposits   25,194 
Total liabilities assumed   304,587 
Total fair value of net assets acquired   2,185,816 
Goodwill  $6,168,260 

 

The Company engaged a valuation services firm to value the intangible assets acquired and the purchase price allocation is now complete. Intangible assets included proprietary technology and a non-compete agreement which are being amortized over 5 and 3 years, respectively. The carrying value of brand name is not being amortized but is reviewed quarterly and formally evaluated at year end. The excess of the purchase price above the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill which is formally evaluated at year end.

 

 

  B. Skypersonic Acquisition

 

On May 7, 2021, the Company closed the acquisition of Skypersonic, Inc.("Skypersonic"). Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Skypersonic in exchange for $3,000,000 of our common stock. The number of shares issuable was based on the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of our common stock for the 20 trading days ending May 7, 2021. Based on a VWAP of $4.0154, the Company issued 857,124 shares. For accounting purposes, the shares were valued at $3,291,356 based on the closing price of our common stock of $3.84 on May 7, 2021. Prior to the closing, the Company provided $75,000 to Skypersonic to fund its operating costs. This amount was capitalized as part of the purchase price. In October 2021, the Company and Skypersonic agreed to a reduction in the purchase price of $601,622 which resulted in the cancellation of 149,829 shares held in escrow. The final summary of the purchase price and its related allocation is as follows:

 

Shares issued   $2,716,012 
Cash    75,000 
Total Purchase Price   $2,791,012 

 

Assets acquired   
Cash   13,502 
Accounts receivable   51,083 
Other assets   12,950 
Inventory   50,556 
Proprietary technology   826,000 
Non-compete agreement   65,000 
Total assets acquired   1,019,091 
Liabilities assumed     
Accounts payable and accrued expenses   1,054,997 
Total liabilities assumed   1,054,997 
Total fair value of net assets acquired   (35,906)
Goodwill  $2,826,918 

 

The Company engaged a valuation services firm to value the intangible assets acquired and the purchase price allocation is now complete. Intangible assets included proprietary technology and a non-compete agreement which are being amortized over 5 and 3 years, respectively. The excess of the purchase price above the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill which is formally evaluated at year end.

  

 

  C. Teal Drones Acquisition

 

On August 31, 2021, the Company closed the acquisition of Teal Drones Inc., (“Teal”). Under the terms of the agreement, the base purchase price of $14,000,000 was reduced by $1,670,294 of debt assumed by the Company, as well as a working capital deficit adjustment of $1,456,953. Based on the net amount payable of $10,872,753, and a VWAP of $2.908 for the twenty trading days ending August 31, 2022, the Company issued 3,738,911 of common stock. For accounting purposes, the shares were valued at $10,431,562 based on the closing price of our common stock of $2.79 on August 31, 2021. In December 2021, the Company and Teal agreed to a reduction in the purchase price of $438,058 which resulted in the cancellation of 150,639 shares held in escrow. The Stock Consideration may be increased if Teal attains certain revenue levels in the twenty four (24) month period following the closing.  The additional consideration begins at $4 million if sales total at least $18 million and ends at $16 million if sales total $36 million.

 

A revised summary of the purchase price and its related allocation is set forth below. 

  

Total Purchase Price – shares issued  $10,011,279 
      
Assets acquired     
Cash   11,364 
Accounts receivable   47,964 
Other current assets   15,085 
Other assets   48,595 
Inventory   1,253,755 
Total assets acquired   1,376,763 
Liabilities assumed     
Accounts payable and accrued expenses   1,143,899 
Customer deposits   1,766,993 
Notes payable   2,749,091 
Total liabilities assumed   5,659,983 
Total fair value of net assets acquired   (4,283,220)
Goodwill  $14,294,499 

 

The foregoing amounts reflect our current estimates of fair value as of the August 31, 2021 acquisition date. The Company has engaged an independent valuation services firm to complete a formal evaluation of the acquisition. The Company expects to recognize fair values associated with the customer relationships acquired, as well as the Teal brand name but has not yet accumulated sufficient information to assign such values. When the valuation project is completed, the Company may make adjustments to the opening balance. The determination of the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed (and the related determination of estimated lives of depreciable tangible and intangible assets) requires significant judgment.

 

On August 31, 2021, Teal entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Decathlon Alpha IV, L.P. (“DA4”) (the “Loan Agreement”) in the amount of $1,670,294 (the “Loan”), representing the outstanding principal amount previously due and owing by Teal to DA4. Interest on the Loan accrues at a rate of ten (10%) percent per annum. Principal and interest under the term Loan is payable monthly in an amount equal to $49,275 until maturity on December 31, 2024. The Company assumed the Loan Agreement in connection with the acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma financial information has been compiled in a manner consistent with the Company's accounting policies, and includes transaction costs, amortization of the acquired intangible assets, and other expenses directly related to each respective acquisition.  The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on estimates and assumptions which the Company believes are reasonable, and are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been realized had the acquisitions closed on the dates indicated in the tables, nor are they indicative of results of operations that may occur in the future.

 

Other information related to the Company’s acquisitions include:

 

The purchase price allocation has been finalized for each acquisition except for Teal for which the Company is waiting for the final report from the valuation services firm that it engages to assist in the identification and valuation of intangible assets acquired.

 

The fair value of shares issued by the Company as part of the consideration paid is normally based on the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days prior to the closing of the transaction.  For accounting purposes, the shares issued are valued based on the closing stock price on the date that the transaction closes.

 

Goodwill for Fat Shark is attributable to its relationship with manufacturing sources in China and the potential to integrate its goggle technologies with the Teal Drone.  Goodwill for Skypersonic relates to the future customers expected to leverage its “Fly Anywhere” technologies in a wide range of commercial environments.  Goodwill for Teal is ascribed to its existing relationship with a number of U.S. government agencies including its classification as an approved vendor.

 

The Company expects that the Goodwill recognized in each transaction will be deductible for tax purposes.  The Company has reported net losses since its inception and is presently unable to determine when and if the tax benefit of this deduction will be realized.
