NOTE 4 – Goodwill

 

The legal acquisition of NextTrip Holdings, Inc. by Sigma Additive Solutions, Inc. on December 29, 2023 was determined to be a reverse acquisition, with NextTrip as the accounting acquirer, using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of consummation of the transaction.

 

Pursuant to ASC 350-20, the Company assigned its goodwill to reporting units and is required to test each reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment at least on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The goodwill resulting from the reverse acquisition is primarily attributable to NextTrip’s objective to obtain access to public markets to provide funding wherewithal to fund business growth. NextTrip’s benefit in paying for these synergies in the reverse acquisition transaction are to avoid the time and expense of organizing and executing an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) transaction. In the reverse acquisition, $1,167,805 of goodwill was allocated to the NextTrip Reporting Unit under the acquisition method of accounting.
