Explanatory Note:
On April 29, 2022, Energy Services of America Corporation (“Energy Services”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) reporting the completion of the previously announced purchase of substantially all the assets of Tri-State Paving & Sealcoating, LLC (“Tri-State Paving”), a West Virginia corporation located in Hurricane, West Virginia. In that filing, Energy Services indicated that it would amend the Form 8-K at a later date to include the audited financial statements of Tri-State Paving and the unaudited pro forma financial information required by Item 9.01 of Form 8-K. This amendment to the Original 8-K is being filed to provide such financial information, which is attached to this report as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2. No other changes have been made to the Original 8-K. The Item 2.01 disclosure in the original Form 8-K filing is repeated below for convenience.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On April 29, 2022, Energy Services of America Corporation (“Energy Services” or the “Company”) completed the previously announced acquisition of the assets of Tri-State Paving & Sealcoating, LLC (“Tri-State Paving” or “Seller”), a West Virginia corporation located in Hurricane, West Virginia.
Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) signed on April 6, 2022 and amended on April 29, 2022, Tri-State Paving Acquisition Company, Inc. (“Buyer”), a newly formed subsidiary of Energy Services, acquired substantially all the assets (including but not limited to customer contracts, employees and equipment) of Tri-State Paving for $7.5 million in cash, a $1.0 million Promissory Note (“Note”), and $1.0 million in Energy Services Common Stock (“Stock”). The $7.5 million in cash was funded through a loan with United Bank, Inc., Huntington, West Virginia. David E. Corns will continue his role as President of the Company’s new subsidiary.
As part of the Agreement, the Buyer entered into a four-year, $1.0 million Note with the Seller that requires $250,000 principal installment payments on or before the end of each twelve (12) full calendar month period beginning on the date of the Note, April 29, 2022. Interest payments due shall be calculated on the principal balance remaining and shall be at the rate of 3.5%.
Additionally, the Seller received $1.0 million in Stock pursuant to an exemption under The Securities Act of 1933. Based on the market value calculation in the Agreement, Tri-State Paving received 419,287 shares of Stock. As an additional consideration, if the share price of the Stock is below a closing asking price of $1.50 per share on the date 180 days after issuance, the Company shall pay the Seller, in cash, the difference between $1.50 and the market value for each share of Stock. Payment would be made within thirty (30) days after Seller makes written demand.
