On February 1, 2024, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Cheq Lifestyle Technology, Inc. ("CHEQ"). Founded in 2021, CHEQ powers payments for numerous professional sports teams, entertainment venues and festival operators through its enterprise-grade payment devices and mobile ordering platform. The acquisition positions Cantaloupe for expansion into the large and rapidly growing sports, entertainment, and restaurant sectors with a comprehensive suite of self-service solutions.

The acquisition of CHEQ was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price of the acquired company was allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values using primarily Level 3 inputs under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill.

The Company paid an aggregate purchase price consideration of $4.8 million including $1.1 million cash held back by the Company for net working capital and other post-closing adjustments. The acquisition was funded by the Company's cash on hand.

The Company determined the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets acquired with the assistance of third-party valuation consultants. Amounts allocated to identifiable intangible assets included $1.7 million related to developed technology, $0.4 million related to customer relationships, and $0.5 million related to trade names. The fair value of the acquired developed technology was determined using a multi-period excess earnings method. The fair value of the acquired customer relationships was determined using the distributor method which estimates the value using the cash flow impact in a scenario where the customer relationships are not in place. The fair value of the acquired trade names was determined using the relief from royalty method which estimates the value using the discounted value of the royalty that a company would pay to license the trade name. The recognized intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

Goodwill of $1.1 million arising from the acquisition includes the expected synergies between CHEQ and the Company and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition at the time of acquisition. The goodwill, which is deductible for income tax purposes, was assigned to the Company’s only reporting unit.

The above allocation of the purchase price is provisional and is still subject to change within the measurement period. The final allocation of the purchase price is expected to be completed as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the date of the acquisition.

The Company recognized $0.9 million and $1.0 million of integration and acquisition related costs that were expensed for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2024. These costs are recorded within integration and acquisition expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Pro forma financial information of the acquisition is not presented due to the immaterial impact of the financial results of CHEQ in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

On December 1, 2022, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Three Square Market, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation, and Three Square Market Limited, a UK private limited company (collectively "32M") pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement. 32M is a leading provider of software and self-service kiosk-based point of sale and payment solutions to the micro market industry and the acquisition expanded the Company's presence in that industry. In addition to new technology and services, due to 32M’s existing customer base, the acquisition expanded the Company’s footprint into new global markets.

The acquisition of 32M was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price of the acquired company was allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values using primarily Level 3 inputs under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill.

The Company paid an aggregate purchase price consideration of $41.1 million, which consisted of $36.6 million in cash and 1,240,920 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Stock Consideration") with an aggregate fair value of $4.5 million for the acquisition of 32M. The aggregate cash consideration includes $0.5 million of cash paid into an escrow account for net working capital and other post-closing adjustments. Additionally, the Stock Consideration of 1,240,920 shares ("Escrowed Shares") referred to above were placed into an escrow account to resolve indemnification claims for breach of certain representations and warranties. 50% of the Escrowed Shares were released as of the first anniversary of the acquisition date and

the remaining 50% will be released on the second anniversary of the acquisition date, less any shares that may be returned to the Company on account of any indemnity claims. The Escrowed Shares are considered to be issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of the acquisition date.

The Company determined the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets acquired with the assistance of third-party valuation consultants. Amounts allocated to identifiable intangible assets included $7.5 million related to developed technology, $7.5 million related to customer relationships, and $0.5 million related to trade names. The fair value of the acquired developed technology was determined using a multi-period excess earnings method. The fair value of the acquired customer relationships was determined using the with-and-without method which estimates the value using the cash flow impact in a scenario where the customer relationships are not in place. The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the customer relationship asset and acquired developed technology asset are the revenue growth rates used in the development of the projected financial information used as an input to calculate those values and the discount rate applied. The recognized intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives for developed technology, customer relationship, trade names were 5, 5 and 3 years, respectively.

Goodwill of $26.2 million arising from the acquisition includes the expected synergies between 32M and the Company and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition at the time of acquisition. The goodwill, which is deductible for income tax purposes, was assigned to the Company’s only reporting unit.

Subsequent to the acquisition closing date and within the one-year measurement period, the Company adjusted the purchase price allocation from what was initially recognized to reflect facts and circumstances in existence as of the acquisition close date. These adjustments included a net increase of $0.3 million to the overall purchase price consideration, a $2.3 million increase in intangible assets, a net decrease of $1.0 million in working capital, a $0.2 million increase in other assets, a $1.1 million increase in tax liabilities, and a $0.7 million decrease in accounts payable. Recognized goodwill increased by $0.6 million as a result of these adjustments. Furthermore, the Company recorded additional amortization expense of $0.5 million associated with the increase in fair value of the recognized intangible assets in its Consolidated Statement of Operations during the measurement period.

In August 2021, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Delicious Nutritious LLC, doing business as Yoke Payments (“Yoke”), a micro market payments company. The acquisition of Yoke was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting which includes the results of operations of the acquired business from the date of acquisition. The purchase price of the acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values using primarily Level 3 inputs under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill.

The consideration transferred for the acquisition included payments of $3 million in cash at the close of the transaction and $1 million in deferred cash payment due on or before July 30, 2022 based on the achievement of certain sales growth targets. On July 27, 2022, the Company made the cash payment of $1 million in accordance with the agreement consideration.

Additionally in connection with the acquisition, the Company will issue common stock to the former owners of Yoke based on the achievement of certain sales growth targets for software licenses through July 31, 2024 and continued employment as of the respective measurement dates. The accounting treatment for these awards in the context of the business combination is to recognize the awards as a post-combination expense and were not included in the purchase price. We will begin recognizing compensation expense for these awards over that requisite service period when it becomes probable that the performance condition would be satisfied. At each reporting date, we assess the probability of achieving the sales targets and fulfilling the performance condition. As of March 31, 2024, we determined that it is not probable that the performance condition would be satisfied and, accordingly, have not recognized compensation expense related to these awards.
