ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS
NOTE 3:-ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS

 

On January 1, 2016, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary BOS-Dimex, consummated the acquisition of the business operations of iDnext Ltd. (“iDnext”) and its subsidiary Next-Line Ltd. (“Next-Line”), for a total consideration of $886. The consideration was comprised of a loan conversion in the amount of $256, initially advanced as a loan to iDnext and Next-Line in December 2015 and applied towards the consideration upon closing of the acquisition, a cash payment of $154 and the issuance of 162,734 Ordinary Shares of the Company for a value of $298. Additionally, BOS-Dimex has recorded a liability in the amount of $178, reflecting its commitment to make additional payments contingent on the annual operational profit of the acquired business in the calendar years 2016 and 2017. As of December 31, 2016, this liability was written off in a whole due to insufficient operating profit of the acquired business in the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017.

 

iDnext, incorporated in 1997, is a private Israeli company that specializes in Automatic Identification and Data Capture (“AIDC”) through barcode and RFID technology, mainly for libraries.

 

Next-Line, incorporated in 2008, specializes in providing on-site inventory count services mainly to leading retail chains in Israel in the fields of apparel, food, convenience and pharma.
