Business Combination

On October 1, 2024, the Company consummated the acquisition of Fleet Complete (as defined below) contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2024 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Golden Eagle Topco, LP (“Golden Eagle LP”), the persons that are party to the Purchase Agreement under the heading “Other Sellers” (the “Other Sellers” and, together with Golden Eagle LP, the “Sellers”), the Company and Powerfleet Canada Holdings Inc. and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Canadian SPV” and, together with the Company, the “Purchasers”). The foregoing transactions are hereinafter referred to as the “FC Acquisition.”.

Pursuant to the terms the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers acquired all of the direct and indirect common shares in the capital of Golden Eagle Canada Holdings, Inc. (“Canada Holdco”) and Complete Innovations Holdings Inc. (“CIH”), and all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Golden Eagle Holdings, Inc. (together with Canada Holdco and CIH, “Fleet Complete”), in exchange for payment by the Purchasers of an aggregate purchase price of $200 million, subject to certain customary working capital and other adjustments as described in the Purchase Agreement (as adjusted, the “Purchase Price”).

$15 million of the Purchase Price payable in the FC Acquisition was satisfied by the issuance of 4,285,714 shares of the Company’s common stock to an existing indirect shareholder of Fleet Complete, with the remainder paid in cash. $60 million of the cash portion of the Purchase Price was funded by the Private Placement, as described below, and $125 million of the cash portion of the Purchase Price was funded with a senior secured term loan facility provided by RMB, as described below. $3.85 million of the Purchase Price has been placed into escrow to secure purchase price adjustment payment obligations under the Purchase Agreement and certain tax liabilities.

Concurrently with the closing of the FC Acquisition, on October 1, 2024, the Company consummated the Private Placement. $60 million of such gross proceeds funded a portion of the Purchase Price with the remaining $10 million in proceeds expected to be used by the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes. $62 million, net of costs, was received by September 30, 2024, with the remaining $8 million received on October 1, 2024.
Given the proximity between the transaction close date and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the preliminary purchase price allocation has not yet been completed. Management expects to complete the purchase price allocation in the third quarter of the 2025 fiscal year.

RMB Term Facility

On September 27, 2024, the Company, together with I.D. Systems and Movingdots, each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Facility Agreement (the “Facility Agreement”) with RMB, pursuant to which RMB agreed to provide the Company with a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $125 million (the “New RMB Term Facility”). The Company drew down the full amount of the New RMB Term Facility on October 1, 2024, and used the proceeds to pay a portion of the Purchase Price, as described above.

The Company’s obligations under the New RMB Term Facility are guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by the Company, I.D. Systems and Movingdots. The New RMB Term Facility is secured by a first priority security interest over the entire share capital of I.D. Systems, Movingdots, MS2000 and Canadian SPV, each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. No other assets of the Company will serve as collateral under the New RMB Term Facility.

The New RMB Term Facility is repayable on October 31, 2029.

The New RMB Term Facility may be voluntarily prepaid at any time upon prior written notice, in whole or in part, subject to payment of a refinancing fee equal to (i) 2% of the amount prepaid if such prepayment occurs before October 1, 2025, or (ii) 1% of the amount prepaid if such prepayment occurs on or after October 1, 2025, but before October 1, 2026. No refinancing fee is payable if prepayment occurs on or after October 1, 2026. If voluntary prepayments are made in part, they must be made in minimum amounts of $5 million in integral multiples of $1 million. In addition, the Facility Agreement provides for certain customary mandatory prepayment requirements.

In the event of any prepayment during a quarterly interest period the Company is also required to pay, or receive from, RMB an amount, such that RMB would be in the same economic position for that interest period had the prepayment only occurred at the end of such period. The amount payable or receivable will be calculated relative to the interest that RMB would be able to obtain by placing the amount prepaid on deposit with a leading bank in the London interbank market for a period from the prepayment until the end of such interest period.

The New RMB Term Facility bears interest at 5% per annum (or 7%, if an event of default is occurring), plus the applicable term SOFR reference rate (or an interpolated rate if SOFR is unavailable), payable quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 each year, and on October 31, 2029.

The Company paid a non-refundable deal structuring fee of $1.25 million to RMB on October 1, 2024.

The Company may be required to make certain indemnity-type payments to RMB should RMB’s returns on the New RMB Term Facility be lower than those envisaged, for example due to changes in tax implications and increased costs of servicing the facility.

The Facility Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to the ratio of the Company’s consolidated total net borrowings to consolidated EBITDA and the ratio of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA to consolidated total finance costs. The Facility Agreement also includes representations, warranties, events of default and other provisions customary for financings of this type. The occurrence of any event of default under the Facility Agreement may result in all outstanding indebtedness under the New RMB Term Facility becoming immediately due and payable.
