BUSINESS COMBINATION

NOTE 3 – BUSINESS COMBINATION

On the CTG Acquisition Date, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Drilling Tools International, Inc., entered into

and

consummated the Share Purchase Agreement with CTG, the shareholders of CTG, and a representative of CTG, to acquire 100% of the shares of CTG for a gross cash purchase consideration of £16.2 million, or approximately $20.9 million, based on the British pound sterling to United States dollar exchange rate on the CTG Acquisition Date. CTG is incorporated in the United Kingdom and is the holding company of its wholly owned subsidiary, Deep Casing. Deep Casing specializes in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of a range of patented and innovative products for well construction, well completion, and casing installation processes for the global oil and gas sector. The CTG Acquisition allows the Company to further expand its geographical presence globally, especially in the Middle East, provides accretive earnings to consolidated results of operations, and expands the Company’s portfolio of intellectual property rights, through the acquisition of over 60 patents.

The £16.2 million, or approximately $20.9 million, gross cash purchase consideration was used on the CTG Acquisition Date to (i) settle Deep Casing’s outstanding debt of £15.3 million, or approximately $19.8 million; (ii) pay Deep Casing’s legacy shareholders £0.3 million, or approximately $0.3 million, in accordance with the Share Purchase Agreement; and (iii) pay Deep Casing’s acquisition-related costs of £0.6 million, or approximately $0.8 million.

The CTG Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805,

Business Combinations (“

ASC 805

”)

. Drilling Tools International, Inc. has been treated as the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, CTG’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and its liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values on the CTG Acquisition Date.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the CTG Acquisition were recorded at their fair values on the CTG Acquisition Date as follows (in thousands):


Assets

The excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired has been assigned to goodwill. Goodwill represents the future benefits as a result of the acquisition that will enhance the services available to both new and existing customers and increase the Company’s competitive position. Goodwill will be evaluated for impairment at least annually. Goodwill attributable to the CTG Acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.

The following table sets forth the amounts allocated to the identified intangible assets, the estimated useful lives of those intangible assets as of the CTG Acquisition Date, and the methodologies used to determine the fair values of those intangible assets ($ in thousands):

Developed Technology		3,269		20	Relief from royalty method
Customer relationships		3,977		20	Multi-period excess earnings method of the income approach

Total intangible assets	$	8,065

The intangible assets acquired are expected to be amortized over their useful lives on a straight-line basis.

The Company incurred acquisition-related costs of $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, which are included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

The Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 includes CTG’s revenues of $0.8 million and net income of $0.2 from the CTG Acquisition Date through March 31, 2024.

NOTE 3 – MERGER

As discussed in Note 1 - S

ummary of significant accounting Policies

, on June 20, 2023, the Company completed the Merger. Upon the closing of the Merger, the following occurred:

•

Each share of DTIH common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, which totaled 52,363,876 shares (other than the shares described for the net exercise of the option and as compensation pursuant to the TSA), was exchanged for the right to receive 0.2282 shares of DTIC Common Stock (the “Common Exchange Ratio”) resulting in the issuance of 11,951,137 shares of DTIC Common Stock.

•

Each share of DTIH redeemable convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, which totaled 20,370,377 shares, was exchanged for the right to receive 0.3299 shares of DTIC Common Stock (the “Preferred Exchange Ratio”) resulting in the issuance of 6,719,641 shares of DTIC Common Stock.

•

Each

non-redeemable

share of ROC common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, which totaled 3,403,500 shares, was exchanged for, on a

one-for-one

basis, shares of DTIC Common Stock.

•

Each share of ROC common stock subject to possible redemption that was not redeemed prior to the closing of the Merger, which totaled 158,621 shares, was exchanged for, on a

one-for-one

basis, shares of DTIC Common Stock.

•

Each of ROC’s public rights and private rights outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, which totaled 20,700,000 and 796,000, respectively, were exchanged for, on a

ten-for-one

basis, 2,070,000 and 79,600 shares of DTIC Common Stock, respectively.

•

Prior to the closing of the Merger, one DTIH stock option holder elected to net exercise all of such holder’s options, resulting in the issuance of 158,444 shares of DTIH common stock, which upon the closing of the Merger, were canceled and exchanged for the right to receive 0.2282 shares of DTIC Common Stock per share of DTIH common stock, which resulted in the issuance of 36,163 shares of DTIC Common Stock.

•

DTIH entered into a transaction services agreement (the “TSA”) with Hicks Holdings Operating LLC (“HHLLC”) on January 27, 2012, as amended February 13, 2023, pursuant to which DTIH must pay HHLLC a transaction fee equal to 1.5% of any subsequent transaction, as defined in the TSA. The Merger constitutes a subsequent transaction per the TSA and, therefore, the Board authorized DTIH to issue 1,149,830 shares of DTIH common stock to HHLLC and 328,611 shares of DTIH common stock to a stockholder of DTIH who is affiliated with HHLLC, immediately prior to the closing of the Merger. The DTIH common stock was issued immediately prior to the closing of the Merger and the issuance resulted in the recognition of $2.3 million of stock-based compensation expense within other expense on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2023. The shares of DTIH common stock issued were exchanged for 337,429 shares of DTIC Common Stock as of the date of the closing of the Merger in accordance with the Common Exchange Ratio. The $2.3 million of stock-based compensation was recorded by taking the $6.95 quoted market price of the Company’s common stock as of the date and time of the closing of the Merger and multiplying this price by the 337,429 shares of DTIC Common Stock Issued.

•

In connection with the Merger, certain holders of DTIH redeemable convertible preferred stockholders entered into exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) wherein the DTIH redeemable convertible preferred stockholders exchanged their rights to receive a portion of the $11.0 million Aggregate Company Cash Consideration (as defined within the Merger Agreement) for the rights to receive shares of DTIC Common Stock. Immediately following the effectiveness of the Exchange Agreements, which became effective as of the closing of the Merger, the holders of DTIH redeemable convertible preferred stock that participated in the Exchange Agreements held 2,042,181 shares of

DTIC Common Stock as a result of their participation in the Exchange Agreements. In addition, the holders of DTIH redeemable convertible preferred stock that did not participate in the Exchange Agreements were paid $0.2 million from the Aggregate Company Cash Consideration in exchange for the cancellation of their DTIH redeemable convertible preferred stock in connection with the closing of the Merger.

•

In connection with the Merger, ROC entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain accredited investors (which were related parties of ROC due to their affiliation with ROC Energy Holdings, LLC, which is ROC’s sponsor (“Sponsor” or “ROC Sponsor”)) (the “PIPE Investors”) for an aggregate of 2,970,296 shares of DTIC Common Stock at a price of $10.10 per share, for a total of $30.0 million (the “PIPE Financing”). Upon the closing of the PIPE Financing (which closed in connection with the closing of the Merger), the Company received $25.9 million in cash and $4.1 million worth of shares from the PIPE Financing were used to settle related party promissory notes issued by ROC to the ROC Sponsor and an affiliate of ROC Sponsor.

The proceeds received by the Company from the Merger and PIPE Financing, net of transaction costs, totaled $23.2 million.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, ROC was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes (see Note 1,

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

for further details. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of ROC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of ROC were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.
