Optelian Acquisition

On February 5, 2021, the Company acquired Optelian Access Networks Corporation (“Optelian”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada and registered extra-provincially in the Province of Ontario, pursuant to an acquisition agreement whereby the Company purchased all the outstanding shares of Optelian (the “Optelian Acquisition”). Following the closing of the Optelian Acquisition, Optelian became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary.

Optelian was a leading optical networking solution provider. This acquisition introduced the “O-Series” to the DZS portfolio of carrier grade optical networking products with 100 gigabits per second (Gig) and above capability, expanding DZS product portfolios by providing environmentally hardened, high capacity, and flexible solutions at the network edge.

The purchase price of $7.5 million included cash paid to the shareholders and option holders of Optelian, cash paid to retire Optelian's outstanding debt on the date of acquisition, and contingent payments to shareholders (in thousands):

The payment to shareholders and option holders includes a $0.3 million holdback and $1.9 million contingent consideration based on a certain percentage of future revenue of certain Optelian products through the end of 2023.

Allocation of purchase consideration

The acquisition was recorded as a business combination with valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair value using level three inputs, defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Due to the complexity of valuing the consideration paid and the purchase price allocation, and the timing of these activities, certain amounts included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including long-lived assets, deferred taxes, and goodwill, are provisional and subject to additional adjustments within the measurement period as permitted by Topic 805. In the third quarter of 2021, we recorded a measurement-period adjustment of $0.5 million to reduce the value of intangible assets acquired with a corresponding offset to goodwill. The adjustment did not have a material impact on the amortization expense recorded in the previous quarters.

The following summarizes the provisional estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition for the Optelian Acquisition (in thousands):
