Mergers, Acquisitions and Dispositions Disclosures [Text Block] | NOTE 4 - ACQUISITIONS Subsequent to December 31, 2015, through stock and asset purchases, we entered into the human resource management, payroll processing and benefits administration services businesses, which we intend to integrate into our existing AsureForce® product line. See Note 14- Subsequent Events for more information about the Stock Purchase Agreement and Asset Purchase Agreement. 2014 Acquisitions In July 2014, Asure acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Shares”) of FotoPunch, a Delaware corporation, a cloud-based time and labor solution provider whose photo-based time clock technology transforms any mobile device into a biometric, geo-located time clock. We have been working with FotoPunch since 2012 as a technology partner for our GeoPunch™ solution, which was launched to help customers support a workforce that is increasingly mobile, global and dispersed. The aggregate consideration for the Shares consisted of (i) $1,500 in cash, a portion of which was used to pay certain obligations of FotoPunch and (ii) up to an additional $3,000 in post-closing earnout payments. We funded the $1,500 cash payment with proceeds from our credit agreement with Wells Fargo. The $3,000 earnout is payable over three earnout periods (with the first, second and third periods ending June 30, 2015, June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2018, respectively) based on the FotoPunch operations achieving specified target revenues in an earnout period. At least 75% of the target revenues must be achieved in the first and second earnout periods and at least 50% of the target revenues must be achieved in the third earnout period. The earnout (“contingent consideration”) was recorded in Accrued Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet with an estimated fair value of $327 at the date of acquisition. No earnout consideration was payable as of June 30, 2015. The fair value at December 31, 2015 was $173. The purchase price was allocated based upon fair value, as follows: net assets of ($1); technology of $440; and goodwill of $1,388. The fair value of technology was determined using the income approach. In August 2014, Asure acquired substantially all the assets of Roomtag, LLC (“Roomtag”). The aggregate consideration for the assets consisted of (i) $933 in cash and (ii) an unsecured subordinated promissory note (“Note”) for $754. We funded the $933 cash payment with proceeds from our credit agreement with Wells Fargo. The Note bears interest at an annual rate of 0.36% and is payable on October 31, 2016. We recorded the Note at fair value using a discount rate of 5%, which resulted in an original issue discount of $73, which will accrete up the note to its aggregate principal amount over the course of the life of the loan using the effective interest method. In August 2015, we paid $722 in full payment of this Note, after applying a 5% discount. The purchase price was allocated based upon fair value, as follows:
Net assets |  | $ | (60 | )
Trade Name |  |  | 35 |
Technology |  |  | 173 |
Customer Relationships |  |  | 330 |
Noncompete |  |  | 24 |

2012 Acquisition In July 2012, Asure acquired the capital stock of Meeting Maker – United States, Inc., doing business as (“dba”) PeopleCube, for a combination of cash and Asure common stock. The 2012 acquisition of PeopleCube gave Asure a product line that includes software to assist customers in driving integrated facility management of offices, conference rooms, video conferencing, events and training, alternative workspaces and lobby use. The purchase price was composed of $9,800 in cash, subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment, (ii) 255,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, representing just under five percent of Asure’s outstanding shares and valued at $2.94 per share and (iii) an additional $3,000 note from us due on October 31, 2014, subject to offset of any amounts owed by the seller under the indemnification provisions of the stock purchase agreement. We adjusted the note to a fair value of $2,404 at the date of purchase based on our incremental borrowing rate. We recorded the note at fair value using a discount rate of 10%, which resulted in an original issue discount of $622, which was accreted up to its aggregate principal amount over the course of the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Details regarding the financing of the acquisition are described in Note 6 – Notes Payable. Transaction costs for this acquisition were $905 and we expensed them as incurred. In December 2012, we demanded a purchase price adjustment from PeopleCube Holding B.V. and Meeting Maker Holding B.V., the sellers of the capital stock of Meeting Maker – United States, Inc. (dba PeopleCube) that we purchased in July 2012, based on matters we discovered after closing. In the third quarter of 2013, we reached an agreement to settle our post-closing working capital adjustment dispute. The parties agreed to a post-closing working capital adjustment due to us of $496, with accrued interest of $44, totaling $540, and a reduction of the original $3,000 deferred purchase payment by such amount. This also had the effect of reducing our long-term debt by a like amount and $496 was deducted from our goodwill balance. The remaining deferred purchase price balance under the Subordinated Notes Payable: PeopleCube Acquisition Note then became $2,460. In February 2014, we reached an agreement to settle all claims and dismiss all pending litigation with the sellers of PeopleCube. Under the settlement agreement, the parties agreed to dismiss the litigation and settle the remaining balance due of $2,460 on the Subordinated Notes Payable: PeopleCube Acquisition Note for $1,700. Separately, our insurance carrier agreed to pay us $500 in conjunction with the settlement. With the insurance proceeds and after offsetting any related litigation costs incurred in 2014, we recorded a net gain of $1,034 on the settlement in the first quarter of 2014. We paid this note in full in 2014. Finally, as part of the original purchase price in the Meeting Maker acquisition, we issued 255,000 shares of our common stock subject to a lockup that expired as to 125,000 shares in June 2013 and 130,000 shares in June 2014. This settlement also removed the lockup for the remaining 130,000 shares.
