Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
MERGER | MERGER On June 1, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Northern Star completed the acquisition of Barkbox, Inc. (“Legacy BARK”), a Delaware corporation, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated December 16, 2020, by and among Northern Star, NSAC Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Northern Star (“Merger Sub”), and Legacy Bark. Immediately upon the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Transactions”), Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy BARK, with Legacy BARK surviving the Business Combination as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Transactions, the Company changed its name to “The Original BARK Company,” and in November 2021 changed its name to BARK, Inc. The Merger is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP primarily due to the fact that Legacy BARK stockholders continue to control the Company post the closing of the Merger. Under this method of accounting, Northern Star is treated as the “acquired” company for accounting purposes and the Merger is treated as the equivalent of Legacy BARK issuing stock for the net assets of Northern Star, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Northern Star are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Reported shares and earnings per share available to holders of the Company’s common stock and equity awards prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively restated reflecting the exchange ratio established pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (1:8.7425). Treasury stock has also been retrospectively restated to reflect the cancellation and extinguishment of the shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger, on the Closing Date, each stockholder of Legacy BARK’s common and preferred stock, (including stockholders issued common stock as a result of the conversion of Legacy BARK’s outstanding convertible promissory notes issued in 2019 and 2020 (other than the 2025 Convertible Notes - see Note 5, “Debt”)) received 8.7425 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, per share of Legacy BARK’s common stock and preferred stock, respectively, owned by such Legacy BARK stockholder that was outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time of the Merger, (1) options to purchase shares of Legacy BARK’s common stock were converted into options to purchase an aggregate of 29,257,576 shares of the Company's common stock and (2) warrants to purchase shares of Legacy BARK’s common and redeemable convertible preferred stock were converted into warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,897,212 shares of the Company's common stock. Additionally, at the Closing: •the conversion obligations with respect to Legacy BARK’s 5.50% convertible senior secured notes due 2025 (the “2025 Convertible Notes”) were assumed by the Company and the 2025 Convertible Notes became convertible at the election of the holders into shares of the Company's common stock. As of the Closing, the 2025 Convertible Notes were convertible at the election of the holder into an aggregate of 7,713,121 shares of the Company's common stock based on the then outstanding principal and accrued interest. The 2025 Convertible Notes are still outstanding as of June 30, 2022; •certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”) purchased an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock in a private placement at a price of $10.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $200.0 million (the “PIPE” issuance); •each of the 6,358,750 outstanding shares of Northern Star’s Class B common stock were converted into a share of the Company's common stock on a one-for-one basis. Each outstanding warrant of Northern Star entitles the holder to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $11.50 per share beginning on November 13, 2021; and •the Company amended and restated its amended and restated certificate of incorporation, increasing the number of shares of common stock authorized to issue to 500,000,000 shares.
