Acquisition of Adler Hot Oil Service, LLC 
 
On
October 26, 2018,
Enservco Corporation entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Adler Hot Oil Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”), pursuant to which Enservco acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of Adler Hot Oil Service, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Adler”) for a gross aggregate purchase price of
$12.5
 million, plus approximately
$500,000
in working capital adjustments (the “Transaction”). The purchase price allocation differs from the gross aggregate purchase price due to fair value adjustments to the indemnity holdback, earnout, plus the discount on the subordinated note. Certain former members of Adler are also parties to the Agreement. Adler is a provider of frac water heating and hot oiling services, whose assets consist primarily of vehicles and equipment, with a complementary base of customers in several oil and gas producing basins where Enservco operates.
 
The consideration paid or to be paid by Enservco under the Agreement includes: (i)
$3.7
million in cash paid to or for the benefit of the Seller at the closing; (ii) a subordinated promissory note issued to the Seller in the principal amount of
$4.8
million, plus interest accrued thereon (the “Seller Subordinated Note”), as further discussed below; (iii) retirement by Enservco of
$2.5
 million in indebtedness of Adler; (iv) an earn-out payment of up to
$1.0
million in cash payable to the Seller, the actual amount of which is subject to Enservco’s satisfaction of certain EBITDA-related performance conditions during 
2019;
and (v)
$1.0
million in cash held by Enservco and payable to the Seller on the
18
month anniversary of
October 26, 2018,
subject to offset by Enservco for any indemnification obligations owed by the Seller or certain former members of Adler under the Agreement.  
 
The acquisition of Adler qualified as a business combination and as such, we estimated the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the closing date. The fair value measure of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed applied various valuation methods to estimate the value of the intangibles that would provide a fair and reasonable value to a market participant, in view of the facts available at the time. Each valuation method was analyzed to determine which method would generate the most reasonable estimate of value of the Company’s intangible assets as of
October 26, 2018.
Both internal and external factors influencing the value of the intangibles were considered such as Adler’s financial position, results of operations, historical financial data, future financial expectations, economic conditions, status of the oil and gas industry and Adler’s position in the industry.
 
The goodwill of approximately
$245,000
arising from the acquisition consists largely of the expected synergies expected be achieved from combining the operations of Enservco and Adler.
None
of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
 
Our Consolidated Statements of Operations include approximately 
$3.2
million in revenues, and approximately
$371,000
 in income before taxes. We expensed approximately
$224,000
 of transaction and due diligence costs related to the acquisition of Adler that are included in Sales, general, and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
