Acquisition of BTU International, Inc.

On January 30, 2015, we completed our acquisition of BTU (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, each share of BTU common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, including BTU restricted stock units that vested immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, was converted to 0.3291 shares of common stock of Amtech. We issued 3,185,852 shares our common stock on the Merger date. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, options to purchase BTU common stock held by BTU employees were assumed by us and converted into options to purchase shares of our common stock on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such BTU stock options, with appropriate adjustments based upon the exchange ratio of 0.3291 to the exercise price and the number of shares of our common stock subject to such stock option. As a result of the Merger, we own 100% of the outstanding stock of BTU.
The following unaudited pro forma data has been prepared as if the acquisition of BTU occurred on October 1, 2013 and includes adjustments for depreciation expense, amortization of intangibles, and the effect of other purchase accounting adjustments. In addition, the unaudited pro forma consolidated results do not purport to project the future results of operations of the combined company nor do they reflect the expected realization of any cost savings associated with the acquisition.
