Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Acquisition

Acquisition

On July 30, 2021, the Company acquired the assets of Diamond Fortress Technologies ("DFT") and wholly-owned subsidiaries for a total purchase consideration of $6.7 million, inclusive of $0.3 million related to a pre-existing contractual arrangement with DFT. Upon closing, $5.9 million of cash was paid with an additional $0.6 million payable to DFT 18 months after the close date (the "holdback"). The holdback amount has been discounted to its present value of $0.5 million using a discount rate relevant to the acquisition. The acquisition adds several new patents to the Company’s library of biometric and digital identity intellectual property. The addition of contactless biometrics technology will enable the Company to better serve the needs of organizations in existing and new markets. The acquisition of DFT has been accounted for under U.S. GAAP using the acquisition method of accounting. The total purchase consideration of $6.7 million has been allocated among the assets acquired at their fair value at acquisition date.

The Company recognized $3.7 million of intangible assets and $3.0 million of goodwill, which is housed in the Telos ID reporting unit, part of the Security Solutions operating segment. Goodwill is primarily attributable to excess of the purchase price over the acquired identifiable net tangible and intangible assets. The acquired intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 - 8 years. The acquisition was considered an asset purchase for tax purposes and the recognized goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

The results of DFT operations have been included in our consolidated statements of operations from the acquisition date, and are not material for the year ended December 31, 2021. Acquisition-related costs were immaterial and have been expensed as incurred. The pro-forma financial information has not been presented for this acquisition as the impact to our consolidated financial statements is not material.
