REVERSE ACQUISITION


On January 4, 2020, PubCo and PrivCo entered into the Agreement to memorialize the Verbal Agreement. On April 12, 2018, pursuant to the Verbal Agreement, PubCo acquired PrivCo’s blockchain gateway and payment system business, point of sale system business, delivery business and kiosk business, and bank and merchant accounts, as well as all intellectual property related thereto (the “GreenBox Business”). As consideration for the GreenBox Business, on April 12, 2018, PubCo assumed PrivCo’s liabilities that had been incurred in the normal course of the GreenBox Business (collectively, the “GreenBox Acquisition”).


For accounting and reporting purposes, PubCo deemed the GreenBox Acquisition a “Reverse Acquisition” with PrivCo designated the “accounting acquirer” and PubCo designated the “accounting acquiree.”


The value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was $843,694 and $589,078, respectively, on April 12, 208. Exclusions from the Agreement included shares in PubCo held by PrivCo, which remain a PrivCo asset, and $185,000 of a $300,000 convertible promissory note issued by PrivCo.


The following is the purchase price allocation on April 12, 2018:

Total Consideration – Liabilities Assumed

    589,078  
         

Gain on Bargain Purchase

  $ 254,616  

This acquisition resulted in a “Gain on Bargain Purchase” for PubCo because the fair value of assets we acquired exceeded the total of the fair value of consideration we paid by $254,616. However, as we deemed the acquisition a Reverse Acquisition for accounting purposes, the $254,616 gain was rerecorded and presented as Paid in Capital within our Consolidated Balance Sheet on the date of acquisition. The operating results of the GreenBox Business for the period from April 12, 2018 going forward have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company did not incur a significant amount in transaction costs in connection with the acquisition, but any and all costs were expensed as incurred and are included within the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
