The Business Combination

 

On April 13, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to the Amended and Restate Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 15, 2021, by and among (i) the Company, (ii) Bitdeer, (iii) BSGA, (iv) Blue Safari Merge Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“BSGA Merger Sub 1”), (v) Blue Safari Merge II Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“BSGA Merger Sub 2”), (vi) Bitdeer Merge Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Bitdeer Merger Sub”) and (vii) Blue Safari Mini Corp., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BSGA, as amended by (a) the First Amendment to Amended and Restate Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 30, 2022, (b) the Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 2, 2022 and (c) the Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 7, 2023, each by and among the same parties (the “Merger Agreement”).

 

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement were consummated via a multiple-merger structure, including (i) BSGA Merger Sub 1 merging with and into BSGA with BSGA being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First SPAC Merger”, and the surviving entity, the “Initial SPAC Surviving Sub”), (ii) immediately following the First SPAC Merger, Initial SPAC Surviving Sub merging with and into BSGA Merger Sub 2, with BSGA Merger Sub 2 being the surviving entity (the “Second SPAC Merger”, and together with the First SPAC Merger, the “Initial Mergers”), and (iii) following the Initial Mergers, Bitdeer Merger Sub merging with and into Bitdeer, with Bitdeer being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition Merger”, and together with the Initial Mergers and other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”).

 

Immediately prior to the effective time of the First SPAC Merger (the “First SPAC Merger Effective Time”), (i) each unit of BSGA (“BSGA Unit”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First SPAC Merger Effective Time was automatically detached into one Class A ordinary shares, no par value, of BSGA (the “BSGA Class A Ordinary Share”) and one right convertible into one-tenth (1/10) of a BSGA Class A Ordinary Share (the “BSGA Right”) and (ii) each BSGA Right outstanding immediately prior to the First SPAC Merger Effective Time (and immediately subsequent to the detachment of the BSGA Units) was cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive, without interest, one-tenth (1/10) of a BSGA Class A Ordinary Share.

 

At the First SPAC Merger Effective Time, each ordinary share, no par value, of BSGA (the “BSGA Ordinary Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First SPAC Merger Effective Time was automatically cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive, without interest, one Class A ordinary shares of the Company, par value US$0.0000001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Share”).

 

At the effective time of the Acquisition Merger (the “Acquisition Merger Effective Time”), (i) each ordinary share of Bitdeer, par value US$0.0000001 per share (the “Bitdeer Ordinary Share”) and each preferred share of Bitdeer, par value US$0.0000001 per share, (together with Bitdeer Ordinary Share, the “Bitdeer Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time (other than the Bitdeer Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Jihan Wu, founder of Bitdeer, through Victory Courage Limited, the “Key Executive Shares”) was automatically cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive, without interest, such number of Class A Ordinary Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below), (ii) each Key Executive Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time was automatically cancelled and ceased to exist in exchange for the right to receive, without interest, such number of Class V ordinary shares of the Company (“Class V Ordinary Shares”) that is equal to Exchange Ratio (as defined below), (iii) each restricted share unit to acquire Bitdeer Shares issued pursuant to an award granted under Bitdeer’s 2021 Share Incentive Plan (“Bitdeer RSU”) outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, was assumed by the Company and converted into an award of restricted share units (each an “Assumed RSU”) representing the rights to receive, on the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, settlement and expiration provisions) as applied to each such Bitdeer RSU immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time, Class A Ordinary Shares, except that the number of Class A Ordinary Shares subject to such Assumed RSU equals the product of (A) the number of Bitdeer Ordinary Shares that were subject to such Bitdeer RSU immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio (as defined below), rounded down to the nearest whole share and (iv) the convertible note issued by Bitdeer that is convertible into the Bitdeer Ordinary Shares (the “Bitdeer Convertible Note”) outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time was assumed by the Company and represented the rights to receive, on the same terms and conditions as applied to such Bitdeer Convertible Note, Class A Ordinary Shares, except that the number of Class A Ordinary Shares to be received upon conversion of the Bitdeer Convertible Note equals the product of the number of Bitdeer Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Bitdeer Convertible Note multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (as defined below), rounded down to the nearest whole share.

 

As used herein, “Exchange Ratio” means the quotient obtained by dividing (A) 118,000,000 by (B) the Bitdeer Total Shares, and is approximately 0.00858; and “Bitdeer Total Share” equals, as of immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time, the sum of (x) the number of issued and outstanding Bitdeer Shares (on an as-converted basis), (y) the aggregate number of Bitdeer Shares (on an as-converted basis) issuable upon the settlement of all vested Bitdeer RSUs as of immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time (including after giving effect to the consummation of the Acquisition Merger or any acceleration of any unvested Bitdeer RSUs in connection with the consummation of the Acquisition Merger) and (z) the aggregate number of Bitdeer Shares (on an as-converted basis) issuable upon conversion of the Bitdeer Convertible Note.

 

 

On April 14, 2023, Class A Ordinary Shares commenced trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “BTDR.”

 

Accounting for the Business Combination

 

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a “reverse recapitalization” in accordance with IFRS. Under this method of accounting, BSGA will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination is primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Business Combination, the Bitdeer’s shareholders are expected to have a majority of the voting power of the Company, Bitdeer will comprise all of the ongoing operations of combined company, Bitdeer will comprise a majority of the governing body of combined company, and Bitdeer’s senior management will comprise all of the senior management of the combined company. Since BSGA does not meet the definition of a business under IFRS, the transaction is outside the scope of IFRS 3, “Business Combinations”, and it is accounted for as an equity-settled, share-based payment transaction in accordance with IFRS 2, “Share-based Payments”. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Bitdeer issuing shares for the net assets of BSGA, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of BSGA will be stated at historical costs. Any difference in the fair value of the consideration deemed to have been issued by Bitdeer and the fair value of BSGA’s identifiable net assets represents a listing service received by Bitdeer and is recorded through profit and loss. No goodwill or other intangible assets will be recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of Bitdeer.

 

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information included in this Exhibit has been prepared using actual redemption of BSGA Ordinary Shares into cash.

 

Bitdeer is providing this information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements described above and the assumption and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with Bitdeer’s and BSGA’s historical financial statements and the related notes thereto.

 

The pro forma adjustments are preliminary, and the unaudited pro forma information have been presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that may have actually occurred had the Business Combination taken place on the dates noted, or of Bitdeer’s future financial position or operating results. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not purport to project the future operating results or financial position of Bitdeer following the completion of the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Note 1 — Basic of Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on December 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2022, the beginning of the earliest period presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022 has been prepared using Bitdeer’s consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022 and BSGA’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 has been prepared using Bitdeer’s consolidated statement of operations and loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 and BSGA’s statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

The historical financial statements of Bitdeer have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and in its presentation and reporting currency of the United States dollars (US$). The historical financial statements of BSGA have been prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) in its presentation and reporting currency of United States dollars (US$).

 

Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

 

The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and based on certain assumptions and methodologies that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed. Therefore, the actual adjustments may materially differ from the pro forma adjustments. Management considers this basis of presentation to be reasonable under the circumstances.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the post-combination company. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of Bitdeer and BSGA.

 

Note 2 — Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Business Combination and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaces the existing pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). Bitdeer has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

 

 

Bitdeer and BSGA have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination other than item as described in (A) below. Accordingly, such transaction accounting adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

Note 3 —  Loss per Share

 

Represents the loss per share (“EPS”) calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the change in number of shares in connection with the Business Combination, assuming the shares were outstanding at the beginning of the period presented. As the Business Combination and related transactions are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination have been outstanding for the entire period presented.

 

Loss per share is computed by dividing pro forma loss for the periods by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the periods using the two-class method. Using the two-class method, net loss for the periods are allocated between the Class A Ordinary Shares, the Class V Ordinary Shares and other participating securities (i.e. preference shares) based on their participating rights. Except for voting rights, the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Class V Ordinary Shares have all the same rights and therefore the pro forma loss per share for both classes of shares are identical. The pro forma loss per share amounts are the same for Class A Ordinary Shares and the Class V Ordinary Shares because the holders of each class are entitled to equal per share dividends or distributions in liquidation.
