NOTE 12 – ACQUISITION & NONCONTROLLING INTEREST IN SUBSIDIARY

 

On March 22, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to purchase the operating assets and intellectual property rights of MPower Trading Systems, LLC, a company controlled and partially owned by David B. Rothrock and James R. Bell, two of our board members, in exchange for 565,000,000 nonvoting Class B Units of Investview Financial Group Holdings, LLC (“Units”). This acquisition closed on September 3, 2021 and we acquired an office lease, furniture and fixtures, and Prodigio, a proprietary software-based trading platform with applications in the brokerage industry. The Units can be exchanged at any time, within 5 years from the date of issuance, for 565,000,000 shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis and are subject to a lock up period through 2025. The fair value of the consideration at the if-converted market value of the common shares was $58.9 million based on the closing market price of $0.1532 on the closing date of September 3, 2021 as discounted from $86.6 million by 32% (or $27.7 million) to reflect the significant lock up period.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF MARCH 31, 2022

(Unaudited)

 

The Company determined that as of the date of the acquisition, the fair value of the Prodigio Trading Platform software was $7.2 million. The difference between the value of the software asset and the consideration issued was driven by an increase in the valuation of the Class B Units between the execution of the original Securities Purchase Agreement in March 2021 which set the number of units to be issued as consideration and the closing of the transaction in September 2021, as well as the software’s lack of revenue generation and a readily available path to monetization through synergies with a broker-dealer partner. Accordingly, the Company recorded a non-cash loss on acquisition of $51.6 million as illustrated below.

  

      
Purchase price (fair value of Units)  $58,859,440 
Intangible asset (Prodigio software)   7,240,000 
Loss on asset acquisition  $51,619,440
