ORGANIZATION AND LINES OF BUSINESS | ORGANIZATION AND LINES OF BUSINESS Organization Simulations Plus, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on July 17, 1996. In September 2014, Simulations Plus acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Cognigen Corporation ("Cognigen") and Cognigen became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Simulations Plus, Inc. In June 2017, Simulations Plus acquired DILIsym Services, Inc. ("DILIsym") as a wholly-owned subsidiary. In April 2020, Simulations Plus, Inc. acquired Lixoft, a French société par actions simplifiée ("Lixoft") as a wholly-owned subsidiary pursuant to a stock purchase and contribution agreement. (Collectively, "Company", "we", "us", "our"). Effective September 1, 2021, the Company merged both Cognigen Corporation and DILIsym with and into Simulations Plus, Inc. through short-form mergers (the “Mergers”). To effectuate the Mergers, the Company filed Certificates of Ownership with the Secretaries of State of the states of Delaware (Cognigen’s and DILIsym’s state of incorporation) and California (the Company’s state of incorporation). Consummation of the Mergers was not subject to approval of the Company’s stockholders and did not impact the rights of the Company’s stockholders.
