LED Business

 

On March 1, 2021, pursuant to the previously announced Asset Purchase Agreement dated October 18, 2020, as amended by the Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement dated March 1, 2021 (as amended, the “CreeLED Purchase Agreement”), (i) we acquired the LED business of Cree, Inc., a corporation now known as Wolfspeed, Inc. (“Cree”), including (a) certain equipment, inventory, intellectual property rights, contracts and real estate comprising Cree’s LED products segment, (b) all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Cree Huizhou Solid State Lighting Company Limited, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Cree and (c) Cree’s 51% ownership interest in Cree Venture LED Company Limited (“Cree Joint Venture”), Cree’s joint venture with San’an Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. (“San’an”) and (ii) we assumed certain liabilities related to the LED business (collectively, (i) and (ii), the “LED Business”). In connection with the transaction, Cree retained certain assets used in and pre-closing liabilities associated with its LED products segment.

 

Purchase Price: The purchase price for the LED Business consisted of (i) a payment of $50 million in cash, subject to customary adjustments, (ii) an unsecured promissory note issued to Cree by the Company in the amount of $125 million (“LED Purchase Price Note”), (iii) an earn-out payment of up to $125 million based on the revenue and gross profit performance of the LED Business in Cree’s first four full fiscal quarters following the closing (“Earnout Period”), with a minimum payment of $2.5 million, payable in the form of an unsecured promissory note to be issued by us (“Earnout Note”) and (iv) the assumption of certain liabilities. The LED Purchase Price Note bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.0% and is due on August 15, 2023. The Earnout Note will begin to bear interest upon completion of the Earnout Period at LIBOR plus 3.0% and is due on March 27, 2025.

 

Contingent Consideration: The Earnout Note is accounted for as contingent consideration. The fair value of the Earnout Note was estimated as of the date of acquisition to be $28.1 million and was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis in a risk-neutral framework with assumptions for volatility, market price of risk adjustment, risk-free rate and cost of debt. The fair value measurement was based on significant inputs not observable in the market.

 

The Earnout Note is revalued each quarter and changes in valuation are reflected in results of operations. In the second half of 2021, we recorded charges of $32.4 million to adjust the value of the Earnout Note to its fair value as of August 27, 2021, and in the first quarter of 2022, we recorded an additional charge of $17.2 million to adjust the value of the Earnout Note to its fair value as of November 26, 2021. The changes in fair value reflected new information about the probability and timing of meeting the conditions of the revenue and gross profit targets of the LED Business. As of November 26, 2021, the fair value of the Earnout Note was $77.7 million.

 

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information: The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents our combined results of operations as if the acquisition of the LED Business had occurred on August 31, 2019. The unaudited pro forma financial

information is based on various adjustments and assumptions and is not necessarily indicative of what our results of operations actually would have been had the acquisition been completed as of August 31, 2019 or will be for any future periods. Furthermore, the pro forma financial information does not include adjustments to reflect any potential revenue, synergies or dis-synergies or cost savings that may be achievable in connection with the acquisition, or the associated costs that may be necessary to achieve such revenues, synergies or cost savings.

 

The unaudited pro forma financial information for the first quarter of 2021 combines our results of operations for the quarter ended November 27, 2020 and the results of operations of the LED Business for the quarter ended September 27, 2020.
