NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS

 

Acquisition of Mimio

 

Effective April 1, 2016, pursuant to a membership interest purchase agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interest in Mimio from Mim Holdings. As consideration, the Company issued a $2,000,000 unsecured convertible promissory note (the “Marlborough Note”) to Marlborough Trust. See Note 12.

 

Additionally, the Company assumed from Mim Holdings a $3,425,000 senior secured note (the “Skyview Note”) that is payable to Skyview Capital, LLC, (“Skyview”), the former equity owner of Mimio and interest accrued on the note. The Skyview Note was issued by Mim Holdings to Skyview on November 4, 2015 as payment for the acquisition of 100% of the membership equity of Mimio. See Note 9.

 

The Company’s financial statements included Mimio’s assets and liabilities at the historical cost of Mim Holdings. Mimio was acquired by Mim Holdings on November 4, 2015. Mim Holdings accounts for acquired businesses using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the assigned values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

 

The following table shows the purchase price, acquisition-date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and calculation of goodwill utilizing the information at November 4, 2015 when Mim Holdings acquired Mimio. Subsequently on April 1, 2016, the Company acquired Mimio from Mim Holdings in a transaction between entities under common control. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation reflects the fair value as of the date acquired by Mim Holdings. Upon acquisition by the Company, these amounts were recorded on the historical cost basis of Mim Holdings.

Acquisition of Genesis

 

On May 12, 2016, Vert Capital contributed 100% of the membership interests in Genesis to the Company. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Genesis, the former members of Genesis received 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock which, upon consummation of the Company’s initial public offering, will automatically convert into such number of shares that represents 4.0% of the Company’s fully diluted common stock as defined in the agreement. Upon completion of the Company’s initial public offering, an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s non-voting convertible Series A preferred stock will be issued to Vert Capital. Such 250,000 shares of the Company’s non-voting convertible Series A preferred stock will automatically convert into 398,406 shares of our Class A common stock on a date which shall be one year from the date of the Company’s initial public offering.

 

Common Control Transactions

 

The acquisitions of Mimio and Genesis were considered as transfers of businesses between entities under common control; and therefore, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were transferred at historical cost of the ultimate parent, Vert Capital. Because the acquisitions were common control transactions in which the Company acquired businesses, the Company’s historical financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of Mimio and Genesis as if the Company owned Mimio and Genesis for all periods presented from the date Mimio, Genesis and the Company were under common control, which was November 4, 2015 and October 31, 2013, respectively.

 

Acquisition of Boxlight Group

 

On July 18, 2016, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest of Boxlight Group, under the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement entered into on May 10, 2016 with Everest Display, Inc. (“EDI”). Under the terms of the share purchase agreement, Boxlight Holdings, Inc., a newly formed Delaware subsidiary of Boxlight Corporation acquired the equity of Boxlight Group. The Company issued to EDI 270,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, that has a stated or liquidation value of $20.00 per share. Upon completion of Boxlight Corporation’s IPO and subject to the listing of its Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market or other securities exchange acceptable to EDI, the Series C Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock. Such newly converted shares of Class A common stock to be issued to EDI or its subsidiaries represents approximately 22.22% of Boxlight Corporation’s fully-diluted common stock upon the Company’s IPO, excluding shares issued for private placements and debt conversions.

 

Under the terms of the share purchase agreement, as amended on September 28, 2016, the parties agreed that EDI and Boxlight Corporation will settle and pay approximately $5.75 million of accrued accounts payable owed to EDI at September 28, 2016, in the manner set forth below.

 

  (1) $1,000,000 was paid at the closing of the acquisition out of the net proceeds of a note issued to Hitachi Capital America Corp. (See Note 9);
     
  (2) An additional $1,500,000 of the $5.75 million owed to EDI was to be paid by Boxlight Corporation and its subsidiaries in six monthly installments of $250,000 each, commencing 30 days after the initial $1,000,000 payment referred to above. However, in view of the fact that such installment payments cannot be presently made by the Company under the subordination agreement between EDI and Crestmark Bank, we and EDI agreed that the net proceeds from the sale of 1,000,000 shares of Class A common stock upon IPO shall be applied, first, to prepay the $1,460,508 principal balance due under Skyview Note, and secondly to prepay the balance of the $1,500,000 installment obligation owed to EDI referred to above. Net Proceeds included costs for professional fees estimated at approximately $300,000, plus any commissions or underwriting fees that may be payable by the Company to brokers, placement agents or underwriters who assist us in selling the shares of Class A common stock in the offering.
     
  (3) $2,000,000 of the unpaid balance of the account payable is settled with a 4% non-negotiable convertible promissory note of Boxlight Corporation payable to EDI, together with accrued interest, on March 31, 2019 (the “EDI Note”). Following the completion of the Company’s IPO, the EDI Note will automatically convert into shares of Boxlight Corporation’s Class A common stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the initial per share offering price of the Class A common stock offered under the IPO. Boxlight Corporation has the option, in lieu of issuing its Class A common stock, to prepay the entire unpaid principal amount of the EDI Note plus accrued interest thereon within 72 hours of the first conversion notice.

 

The Company recognized the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Boxlight Group at their fair value on the acquisition date, and if there was any excess in purchase price over these values it was allocated to goodwill. The estimated fair values of consideration paid, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined based on third-party valuation reports provided by specialists.

 

The following table shows the purchase price, estimated acquisition-date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and calculation of goodwill for Boxlight Group utilizing the information at acquisition date.

 

Assets acquired:        
Current assets   $ 5,737,836  
Property and equipment     65,866  
Intangible assets     7,000,000  
Other assets     514,696  
Goodwill     4,137,060  
Total assets acquired     17,455,458  
Total liabilities assumed     (9,212,161 )
         
Net assets acquired   $ 8,243,297  
Consideration paid:        
Issuance of 270,000 shares of Series C preferred stock   $ 8,828,353  
Pre-existing net payable to Boxlight Group     (585,056 )
         
Total   $ 8,243,297  

 

The Company valued the Series C Preferred shares issued to EDI based on an entity value of the Company of approximately $39,700,000 and 270,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock represents approximately 22.22% of ownership of the Company. A difference in our valuation would change the amount of goodwill created under the transactions. If the valuation increases, goodwill will increase and if the valuation decreases, goodwill will decrease.
