Acquisitions [Abstract] |
ACQUISITIONS | NOTE 3: ACQUISITIONS Acquisition of ConeXus World Global On October 15, 2015, we completed the acquisition of ConeXus World Global, LLC for 2,080,000 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, and the conversion of $823 of ConeXus World Global debt into (i) 2,639,258 shares of our common stock, and (ii) $150 in principal amount of our convertible debt and warrant to purchase 267,857 shares of common stock. The debtholders and members of ConeXus received a total of 1,664,000 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00, and 16,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01. In accordance with the terms of the amendment to the agreement and plan of merger and reorganization, an additional 416,000 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and 4,000,000 shares of common stock, collectively referred to as holdback shares, shall be issued immediately upon the reorganization of the capital structure of a Belgian affiliate of ConeXus, as discussed below. The agreement and plan of merger and reorganization contemplates an ownership matter among the former ConeXus security holders involving an erroneously documented ownership situation related to its Belgian affiliate, with the resolution of such matter, including the reorganization of the Belgian affiliate, subject to the agreement of the Company. Effective February 8, 2016, the Company has extended the period from March 31, 2016 to June 30, 2016 for the ConeXus security holders to resolve such ownership matter, including the reorganization of the Belgian affiliate. The Company believes that the reorganization of the Belgian affiliate is not probable and as such no liability has been recorded for these additional shares, the consideration has not been included in the purchase price allocation and the financial results of the Belgian affiliate have not been included in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Belgian affiliate is not currently nor is it expected to be under the common control ownership or a variable interest entity of the Company as a result of this transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company is involved in discussions and the early stages of negotiations with the Belgian affiliate to pursue the potential acquisition of such affiliate in a separate transaction, independent of the ConeXus World Global, LLC Plan of Merger and Reorganization described herein. The following is the preliminary estimate of the consideration transferred to effect the merger:
(in thousands) |  |  |
Issuance of common shares to ConeXus shareholders |  | $ | 3,520 |
Issuance of preferred shares to ConeXus shareholders |  |  | 1,664 |
Issuance of convertible promissory note with warrants |  |  | 150 |
Total consideration |  | $ | 5,334 |
The issuance of warrants represent the fair value of those warrants based on the Black-Scholes valuation model, using the CRI, Inc. share price on the merger date as an input. The following assumptions were applied in determining the grant date fair value of the (for accounting purposes only) warrants awards:
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 1.71 |
Expected term |  |  | 5.0 years |
Expected price volatility |  |  | 60.47% |
Dividend yield |  |  | - |
Our computation of expected volatility is based on historical volatility. The expected warrant term was the life of the warrant. The risk free interest rate of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the merger and having a term consistent with the expected term of the award. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets of ConeXus World Global LLC acquired in the merger, based on their fair values at the merger date. The estimated fair values are based on the information that was available as of the merger date. We believe that the information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows (in thousands):
(in thousands) |  |  |
Current assets |  | $ | 1,187 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 47 |
Goodwill |  |  | 3,994 |
Other intangible assets |  |  | 1,750 |
Other assets |  |  | 13 |
Total assets |  |  | 6,991 |
Current liabilities |  |  | 1,657 |
Total liabilities |  |  | 1,657 |
Estimated purchase price |  | $ | 5,334 |
The estimated fair value of amortizable intangible assets of $1.8 million is amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average estimated useful life of 3 years. The preliminary purchase price allocation to identifiable intangible assets and related amortization lives are as follows:
|  |  |  |  | Useful lives |
(in thousands) |  | Amounts |  |  | (years) |
Customer relationships |  | $ | 1,370 |  |  |  | 3 |
Trademark |  |  | 380 |  |  |  | 5 |
Total |  | $ | 1,750 |  |  |  |  |
The fair values of the customer relationship were estimated using a discounted present value income approach. Under the income approach, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of future economic benefits to be derived from ownership of the asset. Indications of value are developed by discounting future net cash flows to their present value at market-based rates of return. The useful life of the intangible assets for amortization purposes was determined considering the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the intangible assets adjusted as appropriate for the entity-specific factors including legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors that may limit the useful life of intangible assets. The goodwill recognized as a result of the merger is attributable primarily to the strategic and synergistic opportunities across the marketing technology spectrum, expected corporate synergies and the assembled workforce. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. We incurred approximately $0.2 million of acquisition-related costs that were expensed during the year ended December 31, 2015. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative costs in our consolidated statements of operations. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial results have been prepared for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the acquisitions of ConeXus (discussed above) and CRI (discussed below) occurred on the first day of the earliest period presented, or of future results of the consolidated entities. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information does not reflect any operating efficiencies and cost savings that may be realized from the integration of the acquisition.

The pro forma financial information includes amortization expense from the acquired assets and transaction costs assuming the mergers occurred on January 1, 2014. Acquisition of Creative Realities, LLC On August 20, 2014, we completed the merger contemplated by the Creative Realities Merger Agreement, thereby acquiring the business of Creative Realities, LLC. At the effective time of the merger and pursuant to the Creative Realities Merger Agreement, Slipstream Funding, LLC, then the sole member of Creative Realities, received shares of our common stock equivalent to approximately 59.2% of the common stock issued and outstanding immediately after the merger, together with a warrant to purchase an additional number of common shares equal to 1.5% of our common stock outstanding immediately after the merger. As a result of this merger transaction and a contemporaneous investment in our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by an affiliate of Slipstream Funding, Slipstream Funding and its affiliates beneficially own 32,249,919 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock, representing beneficial ownership (as calculated under applicable SEC rules) of approximately 45.8% of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately after the merger. Creative Realities, LLC was the “accounting acquirer” in the merger transaction while the registrant was the “legal acquirer,” and therefore the merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. In accordance with reverse acquisition accounting, the historical financial statements of the registrant will be those of Creative Realities with the financial results of Wireless Ronin Technologies included only beginning with the merger date. We allocated the purchase price consideration to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Wireless Ronin Technologies, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. Effective September 15, 2014, Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. (the registrant) changed its name to Creative Realities, Inc. Under reverse acquisition accounting, as the accounting acquirer, Creative Realities is deemed (for accounting purposes only) to have issued to the registrant’s shareholders approximately 17.1 million shares with an aggregate value at the merger date of $10.8 million based on the August 20, 2014 market price of its common shares of $0.63. Creative Realities is also deemed to have issued replacement options to the registrant’s option holders and replacement warrants to the registrant’s warrant holders. The estimated fair value of the registrant’s warrants and the value of the vested stock options of the registrant, all of which were deemed to have vested in connection with a change of control as of the effective date of the transaction on August 20, 2014, aggregating $1.1 million. The following is a summary of the consideration transferred to effect the merger:
(in thousands) |  |  |
Deemed (for accounting purposes only) issuance of shares to CRI, Inc. shareholders |  | $ | 10,775 |
Deemed (for accounting purposes only) issuance of warrants to CRI, Inc. shareholders |  |  | 754 |
Deemed (for accounting purposes only) issuance of stock options to CRI, Inc. shareholders |  |  | 390 |
Payment of Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. transaction costs by Creative Realities, LLC |  |  | 1,588 |
Total consideration |  | $ | 13,507 |
The deemed issuance of warrants and stock options represent the fair value of those warrants and stock options based on the Black-Scholes valuation model, using the CRI, Inc. share price on the merger date as an input. The following assumptions were applied in determining the fair value of deemed (for accounting purposes only) conversion of CRI, Inc. warrants and stock options awards:
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 0.49%-2.09% |
Expected term |  |  | 1.3-7.0 years |
Expected price volatility |  |  | 98%-143% |
Dividend yield |  |  | - |
Our computation of expected volatility is based on historical volatility. The expected option term was calculated using the simplified method, an average of the contractual term and vesting period. The risk free interest rate of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the merger and having a term consistent with the expected term of the award. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets of Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. deemed to have been acquired in the merger, based on their fair values at the merger date. The fair values are based on the information that was available as of the merger date. We believe that the information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values. The allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows (in thousands):
(in thousands) |  |  |
Current assets |  | $ | 1,901 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 167 |
Goodwill |  |  | 8,882 |
Other intangible assets |  |  | 5,280 |
Other assets |  |  | 77 |
Total assets |  |  | 16,307 |
Current liabilities |  |  | 2,800 |
Total liabilities |  |  | 2,800 |
Estimated purchase price |  | $ | 13,507 |
The fair value of amortizable intangible assets of $5.3 million is amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average estimated useful life of 3.9 years. The purchase price allocation to identifiable intangible assets and related amortization lives are as follows:
|  |  |  |  | Useful lives
(in thousands) |  | Amounts |  |  | (years)
Technology platform – Broadcast |  | $ | 260 |  |  | 5
Technology platform - Wireless Ronin |  |  | 3,930 |  |  | 4
Customer relationships |  |  | 1,090 |  |  | 3
Total |  | $ | 5,280 |  |  |
The fair values of the technology platforms and the customer relationship were estimated using a discounted present value income approach. Under the income approach, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of future economic benefits to be derived from ownership of the asset. Indications of value are developed by discounting future net cash flows to their present value at market-based rates of return. The useful life of the intangible assets for amortization purposes was determined considering the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the intangible assets adjusted as appropriate for the entity-specific factors including legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors that may limit the useful life of intangible assets. In addition, deferred revenue was reduced by approximately $0.3 million to the fair value of the cost of fulfillment plus a normal profit on that effort. For the year ended December 31, 2015, this deferred revenue was amortized as a reduction to revenues. We also established an accrual for rent of $0.2 million, related to the above market lease rate on the Minnetonka facility in 2014. This accrual was amortized during the year ended December 31, 2015 as the lease for the Minnetonka facility is no longer being used. The goodwill recognized as a result of the merger is attributable primarily to the strategic and synergistic opportunities across the marketing technology spectrum, expected corporate synergies and the assembled workforce. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. We incurred approximately $0.2 million of CRI, Inc.’s acquisition-related costs, which were expensed during the year ended December 31, 2014. These costs were included in selling, general and administrative costs in our consolidated statements of operations. Broadcast International, Inc. (Broadcast) is a provider of managed video solutions, including digital signage, OTT (Over the Top) networks, IPTV, and live/on-demand content distribution for the enterprise. On August 1, 2014 (the Broadcast Merger Date), Wireless Ronin Technologies (“WRT”) acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Broadcast by issuing 7.1 million shares of WRT common stock with an aggregate value at the Broadcast merger date of $3.6 million based on the price of WRT shares on the merger date. The former Broadcast shareholders owned approximately 36.5% of the WRT common stock outstanding immediately after the Broadcast merger, calculated on a modified fully diluted basis. As the acquirer, WRT allocated the purchase price consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Broadcast, with excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. Those allocations to Broadcast assets and liabilities were superseded by the purchase price allocation from the August 20, 2014 merger transaction with Creative Realities that occurred after the Broadcast merger.
