VGH, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively with VGH, LLC, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) focus on the development, manufacture and operations of spaceships and related technologies for the purpose of conducting commercial human spaceflight and flying payloads into space. The development and manufacturing activities are located in Mojave, California with plans to operate the commercial spaceflights out of Spaceport America located in New Mexico. The various entities that make up the Company, which operate under common control, include Virgin Galactic, LLC (“Virgin Galactic”), The Spaceship Company, LLC (“TSC”), Virgin Galactic (UK) Limited (“VGUK”) and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, the “Virgin Galactic Businesses”). We are wholly owned by Galactic Ventures, LLC (“GVLLC”), a Delaware Limited Liability Company and GVLLC is wholly owned by Vieco 10 Limited, a British Virgin Islands Company (collectively, the “Parent Company”).
On April 2, 2019, our Parent Company’s board of directors unanimously approved the pursuit of a separation and merger transaction involving the Company. On June 26, 2019, our Parent Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary named VGH, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company. On July 8, 2019, our Parent Company contributed the Virgin Galactic Businesses to VGH, LLC. Also on July 8, 2019, Corvina Holdings Ltd., an affiliate of our Parent Company, agreed to provide financial support to the Company sufficient for it to satisfy its obligations and debt service requirements as they come due, on a timely basis, from July 8, 2019 through and including the earlier of (i) October 31, 2020 or (ii) the date on which the Company obtains adequate third-party funding required to fund our operations while we are a wholly owned business of our Parent Company. On July 9, 2019, our Parent Company executed a definitive merger agreement, subject to closing conditions, between the entities comprising the Company and Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. (“SCH”) (the “Transaction”).
On October 2, 2019, our Parent Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary named Vieco USA, Inc. (“Vieco US”) and executed an amendment to the merger agreement to include Vieco US as a party to the Transaction. The closing of the Transaction occurred on October 25, 2019 and SCH was renamed to Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. (“VGH, Inc.”) and the entities comprising the Company became wholly owned subsidiaries of VGH, Inc. Upon closing of the Transaction, the VGH, Inc. common stock due to our Parent Company as consideration was received and directly held by Vieco US.
The Company’s financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis as a result of the contribution of the Virgin Galactic Businesses into VGH, LLC on July 8, 2019.
