Sports Defense Acquisition

 

On May 29, 2020, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) whereby the Company purchased all of the outstanding equity securities of Sport Defense LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sports Defense”), from the members of Sport Defense (the “Sellers”). Subsequent to the Closing Date, Sport Defense is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Sport Defense is a marketing and distribution company that leverages the unique benefits of ultra-gentle, high-water content hydrogels, manufactured by the Company, to build brands that treat various ailments of the skin caused by athletic training, such as blisters, turf burns, scrapes and skin irritations.

 

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price paid to the Sellers was an aggregate of $375 thousand (the “Sports Defense Purchase Price”) which was paid by the Company through the issuance of an aggregate of 9,375,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Shares”), which equates to a per share purchase price of $0.04. The Shares are “restricted securities” as such term is defined by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Adam Levy, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and Nachum Stein, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), were each members of Sport Defense and part of the Sellers. Mr. Levy received 1,546,875 of the Shares and Mr. Stein received 3,187,500 of the Shares. Due to the potential conflict of interest that existed because of Messrs. Levy and Stein’s partial ownership of Sport Defense, the Board obtained an independent investment bank to prepare a valuation report with respect to Sport Defense. This valuation report supported the Sports Defense Purchase Price. Also, Mr. Stein recused himself from the vote of the Board regarding the approval to purchase Sport Defense.

 

The Purchase Agreement and the Sport Defense acquisition were not subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company. The Purchase Agreement contained minimal representations and warranties regarding Sport Defense and certain limited representations and warranties regarding the Company and the Sellers.

 

The fair value of the purchase consideration issued to the Seller was allocated to the net tangible assets acquired. The Company accounted for the Sports Defense acquisition as the purchase of a business under GAAP under the acquisition method of accounting, and the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded as of the acquisition date, at their respective fair values and consolidated with those of the Company. The fair value of the net assets acquired was approximately $375 thousand. The excess of the aggregate fair value of the net tangible assets has been allocated to goodwill.

The measurement period for the valuation of net assets acquired ends as soon as information on the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition dates becomes available, but not to exceed 12 months following the acquisition date. Adjustments in purchase price allocations may require a change in the amounts allocated to net assets acquired during the periods in which the adjustments are determined.
