Sealing Technologies, Inc.

On August 23, 2023, the Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in Sealing Technologies, Inc (“SealingTech”), a privately-owned company, for $179.3 million in cash and up to an additional $25 million in the event an earn out revenue target is exceeded. The Company borrowed $175 million under the Credit Agreement to fund the acquisition. Headquartered in Maryland, SealingTech expands Parsons’ customer base across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community, and further enhances the company’s capabilities in defensive cyber operations; integrated mission-solutions powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML); edge computing and edge access modernization; critical infrastructure protection; and secure data management. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recognized $3.3 million of acquisition-related expenses in “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2023, including legal fees, consulting fees, and other miscellaneous direct expenses associated with the acquisition.

The Company has agreed to pay the selling shareholders up to an additional $25 million in the event an earn out revenue target of $110 million is exceeded during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The earn out payment due and payable by the Company to the selling shareholders shall be equal to (i) five-tenths (0.5), multiplied by (ii) the difference of (A) the actual earn out revenue minus (B) the earn out revenue target; provided, however, that in no event shall the earn out payment exceed $25 million. In the event that the earn out revenue is less than or equal to the earn out revenue target, the earn out payment shall be zero. The earn out payment, if any, shall be paid by the Company to the selling shareholders within 15 days following the date the earn out statement becomes final and binding on both parties. The fair value of the earn out (contingent consideration in the table below) was calculated using a Black-Scholes model. See “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for further information on how the fair value of contingent consideration is determined.
