The shares are allocated as follows: (i) 5,700,000 shares of Common Stock as upfront consideration issued at the Closing (the “Upfront Consideration Shares”); (ii) 7,128,913 shares to be held in escrow, subject to indemnification and clawback rights that lapse upon the achievement of certain milestones (the “Clawback Shares”); (iii) up to 3,207,228 shares that may be issued pursuant to an earn-out over five years upon the achievement of certain technological implementations (“Achievement Shares”); (iv) up to 8,018,071 shares that may be issued pursuant to an earn-out over two years upon the achievement of certain revenue goals (“Earnout Shares”); and (v) up to 8,018,071 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants (“Acquisition Warrants”) that become exercisable upon achieving certain revenue goals between the second and fourth anniversary of the Closing Date at an exercise price of $5.01 per share, exercisable, to the extent vested, for five years from the Closing Date. In exchange for the assets and liabilities acquired, the Company received an investment of $2,000,000 (the “Principal Amount”) from Chemistry Holdings pursuant to a convertible note (the “Note”). Such Note, on the Closing Date, became an intercompany payable and was cancelled.

 

CHI has developed a novel chewable delivery system, nanoemulsions, microemulsions, microcapsules and taste masking solutions. These technologies complement and expand the CUREfilm™ platform to enable the delivery of a wider range of active ingredients at higher doses. The combined technologies create a versatile platform for both immediate and controlled-release drug delivery.

 

The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.  The equity consideration to be provided is subject to a variety of earn-out and milestone provisions thus of the 32,072,283 total potential shares to be issued, 26,372,283 shares are considered contingent shares to be release or issued over a period from 5 months to 5 years based on the various contingency as described in the Merger Agreement. (“Contingent Shares”). Under ASC 480-10-25, based on the variable number of shares to be issued as part of the acquisition, the fair value of the Contingent and Acquisition Warrant Shares of $14,632,000 will be recorded as a liability as contingent share consideration.

 

  The Company estimated the fair value of the preliminary purchase price for the acquisition of CHI is approximately $34,069,942. The Company acquired CHI through the issuance of shares of Common Stock of the Company with no cash consideration provided. The preliminary total purchase price was determined based on the following: i) Company’s closing price ($3.34) on May 14, 2019 for the Upfront Consideration Share; ii) the estimated fair value using the Monte-Carlo simulation of stock price correlation, and other variables over a 66 month performance period applied to the total number of contingent shares, which consists of the Clawback Shares, Achievement Shares and Earnout Shares, as determined based on the weighted average present value probability of each the various estimates of milestones, earn-out amounts and achievements being accomplished (“Adjusted Contingent Shares”); iii) the fair value of the Acquisition Warrant Shares based on using the Black-Scholes valuation using the a risk free rate of 2.4%, stock price volatility of 134.7%, no dividend payout, 1 year expected life, exercise price of $5.01 and an estimated stock price of $0.39 based on the end of the earn-out period, year 4 (as determine by using a Monte-Carlo simulation model); and iv) the Company estimated acquisition costs of $399,942, of which $290,209 were included in general and administrative expenses for the period ended June 30, 2019.

The Company estimated the fair value of acquired in-process research and development technology using the relief from royalty method. The fair values of acquired patents and developed technology were estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method. Under both the relief from royalty and multi-period excess earnings methods, the fair value models incorporate estimates of future cash flows, estimates of allocations of certain assets and cash flows, estimates of future growth rates, and management’s judgment regarding the applicable discount rates to use to discount such estimates of cash flows. The estimated useful lives of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets range from 11 to 14 years.

 

The Company allocated the acquisition consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets were determined based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. It is also based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the acquisition. As such, this was classified as Level 3 fair value hierarchy measurements and disclosures.

 

The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values is assigned to goodwill.
