Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Acquisition of Genasys Holding S.L.

 

On January 18, 2018, LRAD Corporation (the “Company” or “we”) entered into and closed the transactions contemplated by the definitive stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, Genasys Holding S.L., a limited liability company organized under the laws of Spain (“Genasys”), the stockholders of Genasys (“Stockholders”) and other parties signatory thereto to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Genasys for €1,900,000 in cash (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment, as provided in the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Acquisition”). In connection with completing the Acquisition, the Company also agreed to repay loans from certain Stockholders to Genasys in an aggregate amount of approximately €364,920. Of the Purchase Price, €150,000 was held back by the Company in escrow to satisfy any negative working capital adjustments. The Company funded the Acquisition with available cash on hand. The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by Genasys, as well as customary indemnification provisions among the parties. Post-closing covenants include covenants by certain Stockholders to refrain from, among other things, solicitation of employees for a period of twelve months, solicitation of or interference with customers and business of Genasys and from other certain competitive activities for a period of three years, and requires them to maintain the confidentiality of, and not use, confidential information relating to the acquired business.

 

Prior to the transactions described in this Current Report on Form 8-K, there were no material relationships between the Company or Genasys or any affiliate of Genasys and the Company, other than pertaining to the Acquisition.

 

The foregoing summary of the Stock Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the definitive agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Stock Purchase Agreement is filed as an exhibit to this report in order to provide investors and shareholders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or any of the other parties thereto. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement are given only as of the dates specified in the agreement and are qualified by information contained in confidential disclosure schedules provided by the parties. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Stock Purchase Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, Genasys, the Sellers or any other party to the Stock Purchase Agreement.
