NOTE 3 — BUSINESS COMBINATION

AxoBio Acquisition

The AxoBio Acquisition is reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, with the Company treated as the accounting and legal acquirer in the AxoBio Acquisition. It was determined that AxoBio is a variable interest entity, as AxoBio’s total equity at risk is not sufficient to permit AxoBio to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, with the Company being the primary beneficiary. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company recorded AxoBio’s assets and liabilities at fair value. For purposes of estimating the fair value, where applicable, of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information, the Company has applied the guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in acquisitions. In accordance with ASC 820, fair value is an exit price and is defined as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Under ASC 805, acquisition-related transaction costs are not included as components of consideration transferred but are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred. The fair value of the purchase consideration transferred in the AxoBio Acquisition was as follows:

Common Stock - 3,845,337 shares

$

11,270,683

 

Series A Convertible Voting Preferred Stock - 4,243 shares

 

10,382,107

 

Earnout

 

13,482,292

 

Deferred Consideration

 

8,000,000

 

Total estimated value of consideration transferred

$

43,135,082

 

 

The fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock was estimated at $2,447 per share, using the put option model, based on the market value of the Common Stock at the Merger Closing Date, conversion rate, projected conversion term, and estimated discount for lack of marketability. Deferred consideration is related to the Closing Cash Consideration of $8,000,000, that was payable upon delivery of the AxoBio 2022 audited financial statements. The 2022 audited financial statements were delivered in October 2023, and as such, the cash consideration was payable at December 31, 2023.

 

In connection with the AxoBio Acquisition, the former stockholders of AxoBio were entitled to receive payment of the Earnout consisting of up to $9,000,000 in cash and up to $66,000,000 in shares of Common Stock, subject to the achievement of certain revenue targets and research and development milestones. In accordance with ASC 815-40, as the Earnout was not indexed to the Common Stock, it was accounted for as a liability at the Merger Closing Date and is subsequently remeasured at each reporting date with changes in fair value recorded as a component of in discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The fair value of the Earnout was estimated as of the Merger Closing Date using (1) the probabilities of success and estimated dates of milestone achievements in relation to the research and development milestones, and (2) probability-adjusted revenue scenarios in relation to the revenue targets.

 

The total purchase consideration transferred in the AxoBio Acquisition has been allocated to the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. The transaction costs related to this acquisition of approximately $1,300,000 were expensed and included in the transaction-related expenses on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company estimated the fair value of the acquired inventories based on the selling price less costs to sell and recorded the fair value step-up of approximately $8,200,000 at the Merger Closing Date. The fair value step-up is amortized over the expected realization term of one year from the Merger Closing Date.

 

The acquired loan payable of AxoBio was adjusted down to its fair value by $502,000 due to the more favorable than the market interest rate. This fair value step down is amortized over the term of loan payable as a credit to the interest expense.

 

The intangible assets include trade names, customer contracts and intellectual property. The intangible assets were valued using a discounted cash flow model. The estimated fair value of the customer contracts as of the acquisition date was determined based on the projected future profits from the contracts, discounted to present value, and the likelihood of contract renewals at the end of each contract term. The estimated fair value of the intellectual property as of the acquisition date was determined based on the estimated license royalty rates, the present value of future cash flows from the intellectual property, and the expected useful life of 7 years. The estimated fair value of the trade name was determined based on the estimated royalty rates for the use of the trade name, the projected revenues attributable to the trade name discounted to present value and the expected useful life of 7 years. The goodwill and other intangible assets associated with the AxoBio Acquisition are not deductible for U.S. tax purposes.

 

The Company determined that the AxoBio Acquisition was deemed significant to the Company in accordance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X. As required by ASC 805, Business Combinations, the following unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 give effect to the AxoBio Acquisition as if it had been completed on January 1, 2023.
