FolioDynamix Acquisition

On November 3, 2014, Actua acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of FolioDynamix for approximately $201.7 million in cash (which included $0.7 million as a working capital adjustment that occurred in the first quarter of 2015) and $4.1 million of equity value related to rolled stock options. The $4.1 million fair value of the rolled stock options was determined using a Black-Scholes model that, given the relatively short expected term applied to the model, essentially approximated the intrinsic value of these awards. Actua allocated the purchase price to the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. FolioDymanix’s results are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on November 1, 2014 (as the results of FolioDynamix between November 1, 2014 and November 3, 2014 were deemed insignificant).

FolioDynamix offers wealth management service providers and financial advisors a comprehensive, secure, cloud-based wealth management technology platform and advisory solutions for managing the full wealth management lifecycle across all types of investment programs. FolioDynamix provides its customers with leading-edge technology to attract and retain the best advisors, enable more effective business process management, accelerate client acquisition and gain visibility across all assets under management (AUM).

FolioDynamix’s customers, which include a variety of financial services organizations, such as brokerage firms, banks (trust and retail), large registered investment advisors (RIAs) and RIA networks and other fee-based managed account providers, access specified bundles of platform applications through the cloud on a periodic (usually multi-year) subscription basis; FolioDynamix sells the periodic subscriptions directly to its customers through its internal sales team.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the consideration paid for FolioDynamix and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Consideration:
Cash consideration (including $0.7 million of working capital adjustment paid in 2015)	$	201,699
Fair value of stock options of FolioDynamix	4,125
	$	205,824

Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Financial assets	$	9,324
Property, plant and equipment	1,581
Customer lists (10 year life)	23,300
Trademarks, trade names and domain names (5 year life)	8,100

Financial liabilities	(14,397		)
Contingent consideration	(1,870		)
Deferred tax liability	(1,585		)
Total identifiable net assets	39,653

Goodwill	166,171
	$	205,824

Actua recognized $166.2 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes, in connection with the FolioDynamix acquisition. No specific synergies exist between FolioDynamix and Actua’s other businesses; however, Actua personnel perform various tasks for FolioDynamix, such as certain marketing, legal and finance tasks that, at times, generate cost savings at the company. Actua incurred $1.4 million in transaction costs associated with the FolioDynamix acquisition that were recorded as general and administrative expense during 2014. The fair value adjustment to the historical deferred revenue reduced deferred revenue by approximately $6.0 million. FolioDynamix contributed $3.8 million of revenue and $1.1 million of net income to Actua’s 2014 consolidated results. See the, “Pro Forma Information” subsection of this Note 4 for further pro forma information on revenue, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share.

(TMGov) for $0.5 million of consideration, $0.4 million at closing and $0.1 million to be paid upon achievement of certain milestones, as set forth in the applicable purchase agreement.

On July 13, 2015, GovDelivery acquired Vox Metropolis Inc. (d/b/a Textizen) (Textizen) for approximately $2.0 million of consideration, consisting of $1.2 million of cash and $0.8 million of GovDelivery stock; $0.4 million of the $1.2 million of cash consideration is being retained by GovDelivery until July 2016, in order to satisfy potential indemnity claims.

GovDelivery has preliminarily allocated the purchase price to the acquired identifiable intangible assets based upon their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Certain GovDelivery stockholders have the ability to require GovDelivery to redeem a portion of their shares in 2016 based on a fair value determination. Additionally, associated with the NuCivic and Textizen acquisitions, certain GovDelivery stockholders have the ability to require GovDelivery to redeem a portion of their shares in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 based on a fair value determination. Certain VelocityEHS stockholders have the ability to require VelocityEHS to redeem a portion of their shares in 2016 and 2017 based on a fair value determination. Certain FolioDynamix shareholders have the ability to require FolioDynamix to redeem a portion of their shares in 2018, 2019 and 2020 based on a fair value determination. Because those redemptions are outside the control of the respective businesses, Actua has classified these noncontrolling interests outside of equity and will accrete to the estimated redemption values with an offset to additional paid-in capital. These noncontrolling interests are classified as “Redeemable noncontrolling interests” in Actua’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As discussed in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, during the second quarter of 2015, Actua corrected an immaterial error and revised previously reported amounts due to a change from recognizing noncontrolling interests related to FolioDynamix as a component of permanent equity to recognizing those interests as a component of temporary equity in redeemable noncontrolling interests.

The following is a reconciliation of the activity related to Actua’s redeemable noncontrolling interest during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands):



Balance at December 31, 2013	$	3,442
Redeemable noncontrolling interest portion of subsidiary net income/(loss)	(8		)
Accretion to estimated redemption value	1,949
Balance at September 30, 2014	$	5,383

Balance at December 31, 2014	$	10,346
Redeemable noncontrolling interest portion of subsidiary net income/(loss)	(220		)
Accretion to estimated redemption value	2,413
Cash Redemption	(3,339		)
Balance at September 30, 2015	$	9,200

Other Consolidated Businesses Transactions

From time to time, Actua acquires additional equity ownership interests in its consolidated businesses. Purchasing equity ownership interests from a consolidated business’ existing shareholders results in an increase in Actua’s controlling interest in that business and a corresponding decrease in the noncontrolling interest ownership. Those transactions are accounted for as decreases to “Noncontrolling interests” and decreases to “Additional paid-in capital” in Actua’s Consolidated Balance Sheets for the relevant periods. Actua may also acquire additional equity ownership interests in its consolidated businesses, either from existing holders or as a result of share issuances by one or more of those businesses, and Actua’s equity ownership interests may be diluted by any such share issuances to other parties. An issuance of equity securities by a consolidated business that results in a decrease in Actua’s equity ownership interests is accounted for in accordance with the policy for “Principles of Accounting for Ownership Interests” described in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies.” Other changes to Actua’s equity ownership interests in its consolidated businesses, as well as equity-based compensation award activity at those businesses, also result in adjustments to “Additional paid-in capital” and “Noncontrolling interests” in Actua’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact of any equity-related transactions at Actua’s consolidated businesses is included in the line item “Impact of subsidiary equity transactions” in Actua’s Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity. The impact of these changes to the noncontrolling interest are also included in the line item “Impact of subsidiary equity transactions” in Actua’s Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity for the relevant period. These amounts primarily relate to Actua’s acquisition of additional equity ownership interests in our consolidated businesses from noncontrolling interests.
