The fair value of the acquired trademark and technology was estimated using the relief from royalty (“RFR”) method. The fair value of the acquired customer relationships was estimated using the excess earnings method. The fair value of the IPR&D was estimated using the replacement cost method.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, whereby the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of identifiable net assets was allocated to goodwill. The goodwill reflects the potential synergies and expansion of the Company’s offerings across product lines and markets complementary to its existing products and markets. For tax purposes, the goodwill is deductible over 15 years.

The results of operations of Adcole for the period from March 2, 2020 to December 31, 2020 have been included in the results of operations for the Successor 2020 Period. The table below presents the post-acquisition revenues, net income (loss), and acquisition-related costs (included in transaction expenses) of Adcole included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the following period:

The fair value of the acquired trademark was determined using the RFR method. The fair value of the acquired customer relationships was determined using the excess earnings method.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, whereby the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of identifiable net assets was allocated to goodwill. The goodwill reflects the potential synergies and expansion of the Company’s offerings across product lines and markets complementary to its existing products and markets. For tax purposes, the goodwill is not deductible.

During the Successor 2021 Period, there was a measurement period adjustment to goodwill of $0.1 million, decreasing the balance to $3.9 million. Refer to Note H for further discussion.

The results of operations of DSS for the period from June 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 have been included in the results of operations for the Successor 2020 Period.

MIS Acquisition

On June 22, 2020, the Successor acquired 100% of the equity interest of MIS in exchange for cash and 2,615,726 Parent Units. The acquisition supports the Company’s growth in its offering of space structures.

The purchase agreement with the sellers of MIS awarded such sellers with a contingent right to an earnout payment from the Company upon the achievement of certain revenue milestones over the year ended December 31, 2020. The earnout amount would be computed as $1.50 for every $1.00 of MIS Revenue (as defined in the purchase agreement), in excess of $40.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the contingent earnout would not exceed $15.0 million or be less than $0.

The fair value of the earnout is arrived at using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“OPM”) using the following assumptions:

MIS Black-Scholes OPM Assumptions

    

 

Risk-free interest rate

 

0.05

%

Revenue volatility

 

51.7

%

Including the equity component, the total fair value of the contingent earnout payment of $11.5 million was settled as of December 31, 2021 for $2.2 million in cash and $9.3 million in equity of Holdings of which $10.9 million was reflected in contingent earnout expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the Successor 2021 Period as the adjustment in fair value occurred subsequent to the MIS measurement period.

Roccor Acquisition

On October 28, 2020, the Successor acquired 100% of the equity interest of Roccor in exchange for cash and 1,564,531 Parent Units. The acquisition supports the Company’s growth in its offering of space structures.

The purchase agreement with the sellers of Roccor awarded such sellers with a contingent right to an earnout payment from the Company upon the achievement of certain revenue milestones for the year ended December 31, 2021. The earnout amount would be based on one of the following: (i) $0 if Roccor revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 is less than $30.0 million, (ii) $1.0 million if Roccor revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 is equal to or greater than $30.0 million but less than $40.0 million, (iii) $2.0 million if Roccor revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 is equal to or greater than $40.0 million. The fair value of the Roccor contingent earnout was estimated using the Black-Scholes OPM; the fair value of the Roccor contingent earnout was $0.6 million as of the acquisition date.

The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes OPM were as follows:

Roccor Black-Scholes OPM Assumptions

    

    

 

Risk-free interest rate

 

0.1

%

Revenue discount rate

 

7.0

%

Revenue volatility

 

30.0

%

Earnout payment discount rate

 

4.0

%

During the Successor 2021 Period, the revenue based earnout described above and accrued to date of $0.5 million was recorded in contingent earnout expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As the Roccor revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 is equal to or greater than $30.0 million but less than $40.0 million, the earnout to be paid to the sellers of Roccor is $1.0 million, which was fully accrued as of December 31, 2021 and reported as Notes payable to sellers on the consolidated balance sheets.

The purchase agreement also stipulated that certain funds in the amount of $0.5 million were to be held in escrow (the “PBR Escrow”), subject to a variance (the “PBR Variance”), for the benefit of the sellers. The PBR Variance was defined as the excess revenue recorded by Roccor for the year ended December 31, 2020, based on the difference between Roccor’s forecasted revenues and Roccor’s actual revenues for the eight months ended August 31, 2020. Upon determination of the PBR Variance, an amount equal to (i) the PBR Escrow less (ii) the PBR Variance will be disbursed to the sellers of Roccor; any remaining PBR Escrow funds will be disbursed to the Company. Since the transfer of the PBR Escrow funds is contingent upon the PBR Variance, the Company’s obligation to deliver the PBR Escrow funds net of PBR Variance was determined to be a contingent consideration. The fair value of the PBR Variance was determined to be $0.4 million as of the acquisition date, therefore contingent consideration related to PBR Escrow was determined to be $0.1 million. PBR Escrow amount of $0.1 million was paid to sellers of Roccor in March 2021.

The amounts included in the pro forma information are based on the historical results and do not necessarily represent what would have occurred if the 2021 business combinations had taken place as of January 1, 2020 and the 2020 business combinations had taken place as of January 1, 2019, nor do they represent the results that may occur in the future. Accordingly, the pro forma financial information should not be relied upon as being indicative of the results that would have been realized had the business combination occurred as of the date indicated or that may be achieved in the future.
