Acquisition of Triad Holdings, Inc.

 

On February 27, 2017, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Triad Holdings, Inc., (“Triad Holdings”), along with its wholly owned subsidiary Triad Speakers, Inc. (“Triad Speakers” and together with Triad Holdings “Triad”) through the purchase of all the outstanding shares of common stock of Triad for a purchase price of $9.2  million, which included cash acquired of $0.3 million. In accordance with the purchase agreement, $1.4 million of the purchase price was to be held for up to 18 months from the acquisition date to cover any of the sellers’ post-closing obligations, including without limitation any indemnification obligations that may arise (the “Holdback”).  Due to customary working capital adjustments after the acquisition date, the Holdback was reduced to $1.1 million. The Company has classified the $1.1 million Holdback in other current liabilities.

 

The Company determined the Triad acquisition was not a significant acquisition under Rule 3-05 of Regulation S‑X.
