| Item 2.01. | Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
On December 23, 2020, TechTarget, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the previously disclosed acquisition of BrightTalk Limited, a private company limited by shares incorporated in England (“BrightTalk”), pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement, dated December 9, 2020 (the “Purchase Agreement”). BrightTalk is a technology media company that provides customers with a platform to create, host, and promote webinar and video content to reach new audiences and engage relevant business professionals.
The purchase price paid at the closing of the transaction by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement was equal to $150 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price was funded with proceeds of the Company’s previously announced offering of $175 million aggregate principal amount of 0.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, closing conditions and other provisions, including indemnification obligations of the Company and the BrightTalk equity holders for, among other matters, breaches of representations, warranties and covenants, in each case subject to the applicable limitations specified in the Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Purchase Agreement, were made as of specific dates, were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and may not have been intended to be statements of fact but, rather, as a method of allocating risk and governing the contractual rights and relationships between the parties to the Purchase Agreement. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the Company and BrightTalk in connection with negotiating their respective terms. Moreover, the representations and warranties may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality that may be different from what may be viewed as material to stockholders. For the foregoing reasons, none of the Company’s stockholders or any other person should rely on such representations and warranties, or any characterizations thereof, as statements of factual information at the time they were made or otherwise.
| Item 7.01. | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On December 23, 2020, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. The full text of the press release issued in connection with the announcement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The information in this Item 7.01 and in Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
