NOTES TO THE DOT HILL UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Note 1: Cloverleaf Acquisition
On January 4, 2010, Dot Hill entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Dot Hill, Telluride Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dot Hill (“Merger Sub”), Cloverleaf, Cloverleaf Communications (Israel) Ltd., Cloverleaf Communications Corporation (BVI) and E. Shalev Management 2000 (1999) Ltd., as the Stockholders’ Representative, whereby the Merger Sub merged with and into Cloverleaf, with Cloverleaf continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dot Hill (the “Merger”). The Merger was consummated on January 26, 2010.
Prior to the Merger, Cloverleaf was a privately held software company focused on heterogeneous storage virtualization and unified storage technologies. Following the Merger, Dot Hill changed its operating segment reporting structure and Cloverleaf joined Dot Hill’s Standalone Storage Software business segment, augmenting its existing software offering portfolio of products. The acquisition of Cloverleaf is intended to broaden Dot Hill’s market opportunities and help accelerate Dot Hill’s transition from a provider of storage arrays to a provider of storage solutions and software. The Cloverleaf acquisition also provided Dot Hill with a new team of software developers and other professionals located in Israel.
Dot Hill acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Cloverleaf in exchange for (i) $0.7 million of cash, (ii) 4,758,530 shares of Dot Hill common stock valued at $8.1 million, or $1.71 per share, which represents the closing price of Dot Hill common stock on the acquisition date, or January 26, 2010, (iii) $0.9 million of specified assumed outstanding liabilities of Cloverleaf at the acquisition date, (iv) $0.9 million of transaction expenses incurred by Cloverleaf related to the acquisition, and (v) 327,977 shares of restricted common stock that were issued to the employees of Cloverleaf who became employees of Dot Hill on the acquisition date pursuant to Dot Hill’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan.
Dot Hill did not assume or exchange any Cloverleaf stock options or other share-based payment awards in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, all Cloverleaf stock options and warrants that were outstanding immediately prior to the acquisition date and not exercised prior to the acquisition date expired and became null and void as of the acquisition date based on the value of Cloverleaf in the transaction. All outstanding options expired and had a no fair value. In connection with the employment of certain Cloverleaf employees, Dot Hill granted 327,977 shares of restricted common stock. The fair value of the 327,977 shares of restricted common stock that were issued on the acquisition date will be recognized as compensation cost in the post-combination financial statements over the period in which the shares of restricted common stock vest. These shares vest as follows: 1/3 of such shares vest upon issuance; 1/3 of such shares vest one year from the date of issuance; and 1/3 of such shares vest two years from the date of issuance. Dot Hill estimates that post-combination compensation expense attributable to these shares will approximate $0.5 million in the first year following the date of the acquisition of Cloverleaf and $0.1 million in the second year following the date of the acquisition of Cloverleaf. The pro forma financial statements above do not reflect this additional post-combination compensation expense to be recognized.
Dot Hill’s preliminary estimate of the consideration transferred in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf approximates $8.8 million as follows (in thousands):
Estimated cash consideration | $ | 703 | |
Estimated Dot Hill common stock issued to Cloverleaf, net of estimated issuance costs | 8,132 | ||
Estimated consideration transferred | $ | 8,835 | |
The acquisition of Cloverleaf has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standard Codification topic 805 “Business Combinations”. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimated fair values.
The allocation of the purchase price has been prepared based on preliminary estimates of fair values, including acquired software, a trade name and certain potential tax liabilities of Cloverleaf. Therefore, actual amounts recorded upon the finalization of estimates of fair values, including acquisition-related intangible assets and certain potential tax liabilities, may differ materially from the information presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements. Dot Hill’s estimates of the fair values of the assets and liabilities of Cloverleaf have been combined with the recorded values of the assets and liabilities of Dot Hill in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The preliminary allocation of consideration transferred in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf is summarized below (in thousands):
Cash | $ | 372 | ||
Accounts receivable | 16 | |||
Inventory | 20 | |||
Other current assets | 161 | |||
Property and equipment | 470 | |||
Other non-current assets | 13 | |||
Amortizable intangible assets: | ||||
Acquired software | 6,375 | |||
Trade name | 176 | |||
Goodwill | 3,810 | |||
Accounts payable | (280 | ) | ||
Current maturities long-term loan | (717 | ) | ||
Other current liabilities | (1,549 | ) | ||
Other non-current liabilities | (32 | ) | ||
$ | 8,835 | |||
The acquired software consists of heterogeneous storage virtualization and unified storage technologies that can simplify data center management, eliminate downtime and reduce storage costs. The Cloverleaf Intelligent Storage Networking System - iSN™ trade name is an intelligent, network resident, storage network management system that provides a combination of benefits, features and capabilities qualified to meet the demands of mid to large-sized data centers. Dot Hill expects to amortize the fair value of the acquired software and the trade name on a straight-line basis over a period of seven years and six years, respectively, which management believes to reasonably reflect the pattern over which the economic benefits are being derived.
Of the total estimated consideration transferred in connection with the business combination, approximately $3.8 million has preliminarily been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred of an acquired business over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and intangible assets. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
In accordance the requirements of Accounting Standard Codification topic 305 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”, goodwill will not be amortized but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment are present. In the event that Dot Hill management determines that the goodwill has become impaired, Dot Hill will incur a charge for the amount of impairment during the period in which the determination is made.
Note 2: Pro Forma Adjustments
Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated consideration transferred for the Cloverleaf acquisition, to adjust amounts related to Cloverleaf’s tangible and intangible net assets to the preliminary estimate of their fair value and to reflect the amortization expense related to the estimated amortizable intangible assets.
The pro forma combined provision for income taxes does not reflect the amounts that would have resulted had Dot Hill and Cloverleaf filed consolidated income tax returns during the periods presented.
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are as follows:
(1) | Adjustment to reflect cash consideration of approximately $0.7 million paid by Dot Hill in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf. |
(2) | Adjustment to eliminate the historical amount of Cloverleaf deferred revenue and the related cost associated with deferred revenue. In accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standard Codification topic 805 “Business Combinations”, as the deferred revenue of Cloverleaf does not represent a legal performance obligation, no liability was recognized in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf. |
(3) | Adjustment to reflect the preliminary estimate of the fair value of Cloverleaf intangible assets acquired of approximately $6.6 million. Those assets consist of $6.4 million of acquired software and $0.2 million of an acquired trade name. |
(4) | Adjustment to reflect the preliminary estimate of Dot Hill goodwill of approximately $3.8 million. |
(5) | Adjustment to accrue $0.9 million of transaction expenses incurred by Cloverleaf related to the acquisition, but not recorded in the historical Cloverleaf financial statements. |
(6) | Adjustment to eliminate the convertible debt of Cloverleaf that was converted into preferred stock in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf. |
(7) | Adjustment to eliminate Cloverleaf’s historical stockholders’ equity. |
(8) | Adjustment to reflect the issuance of 4.8 million shares of Dot Hill common stock, valued at approximately $8.8 million, in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf. The allocation between common stock and additional paid-in capital has been made based upon the par value of Dot Hill’s common stock, $0.001 per share. |
The pro forma basic and diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2009 is based on the historical basic and diluted number of shares of Dot Hill common stock outstanding adjusted for the impact of 4.8 million shares issued in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf, assuming the transaction closed on January 1, 2009.
(9) | Adjustment to reflect the amortization of intangible assets of approximately $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 related to the acquisition of Cloverleaf by Dot Hill. |
Note 3: Unusual and Non-recurring Charges
Dot Hill expects to incur direct transaction costs of approximately $0.8 million in connection with the acquisition of Cloverleaf. In accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standard Codification topic 805 “Business Combinations”, acquisition-related costs incurred by an acquirer to effect a business combination are not part of the consideration transferred, but rather are accounted for as expense in the period incurred. Dot Hill recognized approximately $0.5 million of direct transaction costs in the fourth quarter of 2009 and expects to incur an additional $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2010.
Dot Hill expects to incur post-combination severance costs of approximately $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2010, as one executive level employee of Cloverleaf was not retained by Dot Hill subsequent to the acquisition date. The pro forma financial statements above do not reflect any cost savings attributable to the termination of this individual.
In December 2008, Dot Hill management approved, committed to, and initiated a restructuring plan to improve efficiencies in its operations, which was largely driven by its plan to consolidate its facility in Carlsbad, California into the Longmont, Colorado facility. As a result of this relocation, Dot Hill incurred approximately $1.0 million of severance-related costs in 2009. Additionally, as part of the 2008 restructuring plan, Dot Hill also incurred contract termination costs of $1.4 million for facility lease costs that Dot Hill continues to incur without economic benefit. The severance-related costs and contract termination costs have been recorded as restructuring expense, which is presented as a separate component within operating expenses.
