Azzurro was the Company’s largest shareholder at the time of the MTE acquisition and, as of December 31, 2022, Azzurro and Ralph Bartel, in his individual capacity, owned approximately 50.3% of the Company’s outstanding shares.

The closing price of Travelzoo’s common stock on December 30, 2022 was $4.45 per share, resulting in an aggregate fair value of the Shares of $15.2 million. The consideration for the Shares consisted of the following: (a) $1.0 million in cash paid on the Closing Date; (b) $4.8 million paid in the form of a promissory note, carrying a 12% interest rate per annum, issued on the Closing Date and payable by June 30, 2023; and (c) the transfer to the Company of all outstanding capital stock of MTE, which was effected pursuant to a merger of MTE with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on the Closing Date. In October 2023, the Company and Azzurro agreed to a payment plan for payment of the promissory note in five installments, ending in February 2024, with interest on the outstanding principal accruing at 16% per annum beginning on July 1, 202 3.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, are adjusted to fair value if an impairment is recognized during the period. The fair value measurements are based on Level 3 inputs which are unobservable inputs based on management assumptions used to measure assets at fair value. The goodwill assessment was performed by comparing the fair value of the reporting units to their carrying value. The fair value estimates for the reporting units were based on a blended analysis of the present value of future discounted cash flows and the market value approach, using Level 3 inputs. The indefinite-lived intangible assets assessment was performed using the relief-from-royalty method, which includes unobservable inputs, classified as Level 3, including projected revenues and approximately 5% royalty rate. The Company performed an annual impairment test as of October 31, 2024 and did not identify any indicators of impairment for the year ended December 31, 2024.
