SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On August 3, 2022 , we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.09 per common share to be paid to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 18, 2022 . The payment date will be September 1, 2022 in the aggregate amount of approximately $ 7.0 million. Closing of the Business Combination with ADVA As previously disclosed, on July 8, 2022, Acorn MergeCo, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned direct subsidiary of ADTRAN Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Acorn HoldCo, Inc.) (the “Company”), merged with and into ADTRAN, Inc. (“ADTRAN”), with ADTRAN surviving the merger as a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). The Merger was consummated pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated as of August 30, 2021 , by and among the Company, ADTRAN, ADVA Optical Networking SE, a company organized and existing under the laws of Germany (“ADVA”), and Merger Sub. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Company made a public offer to exchange each issued and outstanding no-par value bearer share of ADVA for 0.8244 shares of common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), of the Company (the “Exchange Offer” and, together with the Merger, the “Business Combination”). The acceptance period for the Exchange Offer ended on February 14, 2022, and on July 6, 2022, the Company announced that all special offer conditions to the consummation of the Exchange Offer had been satisfied. The Exchange Offer was settled on July 15, 2022 (the “Exchange Offer Settlement Date”) in which the Company acquired 33,957,538 bearer shares of ADVA, or 65.43 % of ADVA’s outstanding bearer shares as of the Exchange Offer Settlement Date, in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 27,994,595 shares of Company Common Stock. Based on the Company's closing share price as of July 15, 2022 of $ 20.20 , the value of the Company Common Stock provided in exchange for ADVA common stock was approximately $ 565.5 million. The issuance of shares of Company Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) (File No. 333-259251), which was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 2, 2021, and which included a proxy statement of ADTRAN for the special meeting of the stockholders of ADTRAN at which ADTRAN’s stockholders voted to adopt the Business Combination Agreement and that also constituted a prospectus for the Company (the “Proxy Statement”). The Company Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) and trades under the symbol “ADTN”. The Company Common Stock was also approved for listing on the regulated market segment (regulierter Markt) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) with simultaneous admission to the sub-segment thereof with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) on July 13, 2022 and trades there under the symbol “QH9”. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $ 0.9 million and $ 1.8 million of transaction costs and were recognized as selling, general and administrative expense and research and development expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred $ 2.4 million and $ 3.4 million of transaction costs and were recognized as selling, general and administrative expense and research and development expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively. We expect that the business combination will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, with ADTRAN Holdings, Inc. representing the accounting acquirer under this guidance. Due to the timing of the acquisition subsequent to our June 30, 2022 reporting period end, the initial accounting, including the allocation of purchase price and supplemental pro forma information, is incomplete as of the filing date and, therefore, related disclosures are not included herein. Assumed ADVA Options Pursuant to the Business Combination which closed on July 15, 2022, ADVA stock option holders were entitled to have their ADVA stock options assumed by ADTRAN Holdings (applying the exchange ratio in the Business Combination Agreement), thereafter representing options to acquire stock of ADTRAN Holdings. The maximum number of shares of ADTRAN Holdings stock potentially issuable upon such assumption was 2.1 million shares. The period in which such options could be assumed ended July 22, 2022. A total of 2.0 million shares of ADTRAN Holdings stock are subject to assumed ADVA options. The fair value of the stock options assumed by ADTRAN Holdings will be estimated using a Black-Scholes model. Our valuation of this component of consideration is not yet complete. Wells Fargo Credit Agreement On July 18, 2022, ADTRAN Holdings, Inc. and ADTRAN, Inc., as the borrower, entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks, including Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”), and the other lenders named therein (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement allows for borrowings of up to $ 100 million in aggregate principal amount, subject to being increased to up to $ 400 million in aggregate principal amount upon the Company or Borrower’s execution of a domination and profit and loss transfer agreement with ADVA or a parent of ADVA, among other conditions (the “Senior Credit Facilities Increase”). The Credit Agreement replaced the Cadence Revolving Credit Agreement and the Wells Fargo Revolving Credit Agreement. In connection with the entry into the Credit Agreement, all outstanding borrowings under such credit agreements have been repaid and the agreements terminated. As of August 5, 2022, ADTRAN, Inc.’s borrowings under the revolving line of credit were $ 50.0 million. In addition, a $ 17.5 million letter of credit with ADTRAN, Inc. remains outstanding. Any future credit extensions under the Credit Agreement are subject to customary conditions precedent. The proceeds of any loans are expected to be used for general corporate purposes and to pay a portion of the Exchange Offer consideration. All U.S. borrowings under the Credit Agreement (other than swingline loans, which will bear interest at the Base Rate (as defined below)) will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum equal to (A)(i) the highest of (a) the federal funds rate (i.e., for any day, the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the business day next succeeding such day) plus ½ of 1 %, (b) the prime commercial lending rate of the Administrative Agent, as established from time to time at its principal U.S. office (which such rate is an index or base rate and will not necessarily be its lowest or best rate charged to its customers or other banks), and (c) the daily Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for a one-month tenor plus 1 %, plus (ii) the applicable rate, ranging from 0.5 % to 1.25 % (the “Base Rate”), or (B) the sum of the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the applicable rate, ranging from 1.4 % to 2.15 %, provided that such sum is subject to a 0.0 % floor (such loans utilizing this interest rate, “SOFR Loans”). All E.U. borrowings under the Credit Agreement (other than swingline loans) will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Euro Interbank Offered Rate as administered by the European Money Markets Institute (or a comparable or successor administrator approved by the Administrative Agent) plus the applicable rate, ranging from 1.5 % to 2.25 %, provided that such sum is subject to a 0.0 % floor (such loans utilizing this interest rate, “EURIBOR Loans”). The applicable rate is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio of the Company and its subsidiaries as determined pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. Default interest is 2.00 % per annum in excess of the rate otherwise applicable in the case of any overdue principal or any other overdue amount. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Credit Agreement in respect of unutilized revolving loan commitments and an additional commitment ticking fee at a rate of 0.25 % on the commitment amounts of each lender until the earliest of (i) the date of the Senior Credit Facilities Increase, (ii) the Company’s voluntary termination of the credit facility commitment, and (iii) December 31, 2023. The Company is also required to pay a participation fee to the Administrative Agent for the account of each lender with respect to the Company’s participations in letters of credit at the then applicable rate for SOFR Loans. The Credit Agreement will mature on July 14, 2027 , with the Company’s option to request extensions subject to customary conditions. The Credit Agreement permits the Company to prepay any or all of the outstanding loans or to reduce the commitments under the Credit Agreement without incurring premiums or penalties (except breakage costs with respect to SOFR Loans and EURIBOR Loans). The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including incurrence covenants and certain other limitations on the ability of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries to incur additional debt, guarantee other obligations, grant liens on assets, make investments, dispose of assets, pay dividends or other payments on capital stock, make restricted payments, engage in mergers or consolidations, engage in transactions with affiliates, modify its organizational documents, and enter into certain restrictive agreements. It also contains customary events of default (subject to customary cure periods and materiality thresholds). Furthermore, the Credit Agreement requires that the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company and its subsidiaries tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter not to exceed 3.25 to 1.00 through September 30, 2024 and 2.75 to 1.00 from December 31, 2024 and thereafter, subject to certain exceptions.
