Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On April 1, 2005, ActivCard Corp. (the “Company”) concluded that its subsidiary ActivCard (UK) Ltd., formerly Aspace Solutions Ltd., (“Aspace”) had not satisfied certain earn-out contingencies set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and Aspace, dated December 21, 2004 (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company had previously agreed to pay £1,500,000 and issue 347,660 shares of common stock to the former Aspace shareholders if Aspace entered into a commercial license agreement, with certain minimum revenues, with a financial institution by March 31, 2005. As a result of Aspace not satisfying this condition, the Company will not be required to pay any portion of this additional consideration.
On April 1, 2005, the Company decided to implement an organizational restructuring that includes the elimination of approximately 10% of the workforce of the Company and its subsidiaries. The majority of the positions eliminated were at Aspace. As a result of the restructuring, the Company expects to record a one-time restructuring charge related to severance of approximately $900,000 in the quarter ending June 30, 2005. Additionally, in connection with the preparation of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company will be assessing whether there has been any impairment of intangible assets related to Aspace.
