Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | No te L — Acquisition of Inside Out Solutions, LLC On December 1, 2022, we purchased substantially all of the assets (the “Transaction”) of Inside Out Solutions, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“InsideOut”), for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $7.5 million (the “Purchase Price”) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, dated as of December 1, 2022 by and between Harte Hanks and InsideOut (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”). InsideOut is a premium sales enablement agency offering technology and data driven support to technology, media telecommunications, business services, industrial, and financial technology customers in the North American and European markets with its headquarters in St. Petersburg, Florida. The acquisition of InsideOut further expands our capabilities within its marketing services and customer care segments and strengthens our ability to drive profitable revenue growth within our current sales enablement offerings, including: (i) demand generation which creates qualified marketing leads for our clients, and (ii) inside sales offerings to further promote a client’s internal growth objectives. In addition, the owner and CEO of InsideOut entered into a two-year consulting agreement with the Company, which will ensure consistency in our delivery of these sales enablement offerings, post-closing. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, $5.75 million of the Purchase Price was paid in cash at closing, $1.0 million in cash was placed in escrow to satisfy indemnification obligations, if any, and separately, to satisfy earn-outs related to future revenue performance. Separately, $0.75 million of the Purchase Price was paid at closing in shares of Harte Hanks common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”). The share amount was based on the volume weighted closing price over the 15 trading days ending on November 28, 2022. $1.0 million cash in escrow account is included in other current assets in our balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. The Purchase Price is subject to a post-closing net working capital true-up 180-days after the Transaction closes if net working capital is not between $1.3 million and $1.6 million. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting with the Company treated as the acquiring entity.
