Kinvey Acquisition

On June 1, 2017, we acquired by merger 100% of the outstanding securities of Kinvey for an aggregate sum of $49.2 million, which includes approximately $0.3 million held-back from the founder of Kinvey as an incentive to remain with the Company for at least two years following the acquisition. The $0.3 million held-back will be recorded to expense over the service period. Kinvey is a privately-held company providing Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS), which allows developers to set up, use, and operate a cloud backend for any native, hybrid, web, or IoT app built using any development tools. This acquisition, in combination with our existing frontend technologies, cognitive capabilities from DataRPM, our strong business logic and rules capabilities, and our strong data connectivity technologies, enables us to offer a premier platform for building and delivering cognitive business applications. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and accordingly, the results of operations of Kinvey are included in our operating results as part of the OpenEdge business segment from the date of acquisition. We paid the purchase price in cash from available funds.

The total consideration, less the $0.3 million held-back discussed above, which is considered to be a compensation arrangement, has been preliminarily allocated to Kinvey's tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for those estimates during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The areas of the preliminary estimates that are not yet finalized relate to identifiable intangible assets and deferred taxes. The excess of the total consideration, less the amount held-back from the founder, over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is as follows (in thousands):

The preliminary fair value of the intangible assets has been estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value. The cash flows are based on estimates used to price the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model as well as the weighted average cost of capital.

Deferred taxes include deferred tax liabilities resulting from the tax effects of fair value adjustments related to identifiable intangible assets, partially offset by the value of deferred tax assets acquired from Kinvey. Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value.

We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product and solution offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of $25.2 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) are not included as a component of consideration paid, but are required to be expensed as incurred. We incurred $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs, which are included in acquisition-related expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended August 31, 2017.

We have not disclosed the amount of revenues and earnings of Kinvey since acquisition, nor pro forma financial information, as those amounts are not significant to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Data RPM Acquisition

On March 1, 2017, we acquired by merger 100% of the outstanding securities of DataRPM for an aggregate sum of $30.0 million. Approximately $1.7 million of the purchase price was paid to DataRPM’s founders in the form of restricted stock units, subject to a two-year vesting schedule and continued employment. This will be recorded as stock-based compensation over the vesting term. DataRPM is a privately-held company and leader in cognitive predictive maintenance for the industrial IoT (IIoT) market. This acquisition is a key part of the Company's strategy to provide the best platform to build and deliver cognitive-first applications. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and accordingly, the results of operations of DataRPM are included in our operating results as part of the OpenEdge business segment from the date of acquisition. We paid the purchase price in cash from available funds.

The total consideration, less the fair value of the granted restricted stock units discussed above, which are considered compensation arrangements, has been allocated to DataRPM’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for those estimates during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The areas of the preliminary estimates that are not yet finalized relate to identifiable intangible assets and deferred taxes. The excess of the total consideration, less the fair value of the restricted stock units, over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

The preliminary fair value of the intangible assets has been estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value. The cash flows are based on estimates used to price the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model as well as the weighted average cost of capital.

Deferred taxes include deferred tax liabilities resulting from the tax effects of fair value adjustments related to identifiable intangible assets, partially offset by the fair value of deferred tax assets acquired from DataRPM. Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value.

We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product and solution offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of $12.6 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

As discussed above, approximately $1.7 million of the total consideration was paid to DataRPM’s founders in restricted stock units, subject to a vesting schedule and continued employment. We concluded that the restricted stock units are compensation arrangements and we have been recognizing stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the vesting schedule over the service period of the awards, which is 2 years. We recorded $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense related to these restricted stock units as operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2017.

Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) are not included as a component of consideration transferred, but are required to be expensed as incurred. We incurred $0.3 million and $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2017, respectively, which are included in acquisition-related expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

We have not disclosed the amount of revenues and earnings of DataRPM since acquisition, nor pro forma financial information, as those amounts are not significant to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
