2022 Acquisitions

In April 2022, we completed the acquisition of Cell&Co BioServices in Clermont-Ferrand, France with additional operations in Pont-du-Château, France to further enhance our existing global temperature-controlled supply chain capabilities. Cell&Co BioServices is a bioservices business providing biorepository, kitting, and logistics services to the life sciences industry. The purchase consideration was €5.7 million ($6.2 million), comprised of upfront consideration of €3.2 million ($3.5 million) in cash, 15,152 shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $0.4 million, and an earn-out provision with a fair value of €2.0 million ($2.2 million) based on achieving annual EBITDA targets through 2025, as defined in the share purchase agreement. Of the purchase consideration, $2.7 million was allocated to goodwill and $3.4 million to identifiable intangible assets. The valuation of the intangible assets, contingent consideration liability and opening balance sheet are preliminary estimates subject to change as we complete our procedures. The acquired goodwill and intangible assets are not deductible for tax purposes.

In July 2022, we completed the acquisition of Polar Expres in Madrid, Spain which provides temperature-controlled logistics solutions dedicated to the life sciences industry (See Note 15).

In July 2022, we also completed the acquisition of Cell Matters in Liège, Belgium which provides cryo-process optimization, cryoprocessing, and cryopreservation solutions to the life sciences industry (See Note 15).

2021 Acquisitions

In the second quarter of 2021, we completed the acquisitions of Critical Transport Solutions Australia (CTSA) in Australia and F-airGate in Belgium to further enhance our existing global temperature-controlled supply chain capabilities in the APAC and EMEA regions. The combined purchase consideration was $6.8 million, of which $2.7 million was allocated to goodwill and $2.8 million to identifiable intangible assets. The combined purchase consideration also included a contingent consideration liability of $0.7 million. The acquisitions include earnout provisions subject to achieving future EBITDA targets through 2025 and certain employment requirements, as defined in the share purchase agreements. The goodwill amount represents synergies related to our existing logistics management services. Through June 30, 2022, the Company recorded combined measurement period adjustments of $0.8 million, mainly comprised of deferred tax adjustments. The acquired goodwill and intangible assets are not deductible for tax purposes.
