Acquisitions

Note 10 – Acquisitions:

Hema Diagnostics Systems, LLC:

On January 18, 2017, the Company acquired a 51% interest in Hema Diagnostic Systems, LLC (“HDS”), pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement. At closing, the Company acquired 4,950 of HDS’s 10,000 previously outstanding limited liability company units in exchange for 1,117,011 shares of Generex common stock valued at $253,721, plus 420 shares of Generex common stock issued to HDS in exchange for 300 new limited liability company units. The Acquisition Agreement also provides the Company with a call option to acquire the remaining 49% of HDS and a retirement of HDS shareholder loans in the amount of $13,431,706 (including interest) (the “Call Option”) for the aggregate purchase price of $1. On November 30, 2018, the call option was exercised, and the Company acquired the remaining 49% of HDS.

Following the closing and the completion of Company’s reverse stock split, the Company was required to issue a further 4,830,000 shares of common stock and issue a warrant to a former shareholder of HDS to acquire 15,000,000 additional shares of Generex common stock for $2.50 per share. The issue of this warrant is contingent upon the Company obtaining approval from its shareholders for an increase in its authorized share capital. The total consideration was valued at $1,350,916 on the date of the acquisition. As of January 31, 2019, all warrants relating to this acquisition have been issued which resulted in additional paid in capital of $9,032,435.

Fair Value of the HDS Assets

The intangibles assets acquired include In–Process Research & Development (“IPR&D”). The Fair Value of the IPR&D intangible asset using an Asset Cost Accumulation methodology as of January 18, 2017 (the “Valuation Date”) was determined to be $2,911,377.

The net purchase price of HDS was determined to be as follows:

	Stock Price at Closing		Shares		Fair Value
Purchase price:
Common Stock at closing	$	.23		1,117,011	$	253,721
Common Stock after closing	$	.23		420		95
Common Stock post reverse stock split	$	.23		4,830,000		1,097,100
Total purchase price				5,947,431	$	1,350,916

As of January 18, 2017, the issue of the warrant to acquire 15,000,000 additional common shares of Generex was contingent upon shareholder approval of an increase in the Company’s authorized capital stock. No warrant could be issued by the Company until such time that an increase in authorized capital has been approved. At the time of closing, Management was not of the opinion that it is more likely than not that the warrant will be issued and the Call Option will be exercised, accordingly no values have been attributed to the warrant and Call Option at closing. During 2017, management made a redetermination and estimated that it was more likely than not that the shareholder approval to increase authorized share capital would be obtained and the Call Option would be exercised.

On December 1, 2018, pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement the Company issued the warrant to 15,000,000 additional common shares of Generex to Stephen L. Berkman. The Warrant is exercisable until December 1, 2019 at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. The Warrant contains a provision prohibiting the exercise of the Warrant to the extent that, after exercise, Mr. Berkman would own more than 9.99% of the Company’s common stock. The Warrant was issued pursuant to the January 18, 2017 Acquisition Agreement among the Company, Hema Diagnostic Systems, LLC (“HDS”), Stephen L. Berkman and the other equity owners of HDS. Despite the warrants being issued after the effective date of the 20 for 1 stock dividend, per an agreement with warrant holder, such warrants were not subject to the stock dividend and no adjustment was made to the exercise price.

Simultaneously, on December 1, 2018, Company exercised the Call Option and acquired the remaining 49% non-controlling interest in HDS. Accordingly, the fair values of the warrants and call option was updated through the issuance and exercise date and the change in the fair value of the contingent purchase consideration of $(4,397,507) and $15,147591 was recorded and included in the condensed interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three- and six-months ending January 31, 2019. The Company adopted a sequencing policy and determined that the warrants with fixed exercise price were excluded from derivative consideration.

The remaining fair value of the call option and the warrant payable remaining at the time of exercise of the call option and issuance of the warrant was charged against additional paid-in capital as an elimination of non-controlling interest for $(6,951,015).

Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for the Warrant

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of the warrant as of January 31, 2019. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. The key inputs used in the fair value calculations were as follows:

	December 1, 2018			July 31, 2018
Exercise price		2.50			2.50
Time to expiration		3.14 years			3.47 years
Risk-free interest rate		3.01	%		2.77	%
Estimated volatility		138.61	%		143.97	%
Dividend		—			—
Stock price at valuation date	$	0.9		$	0.1

Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Call Option

The Company used the Monte Carlo model to calculate the fair value of the call option as of six months ended January 31, 2019 and year ended July 31, 2018. The valuations are based on assumptions as of the valuation date with regard to the value of the asset acquired net of impairment, the risk-free interest rate, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, the time to expiration and the stock price at the date of valuation.

The following assumptions were used in estimating the value of the Call Option:

	December 1, 2018			July 31, 2018
Risk-free interest rate		2.52	%		2.44	%
Estimated volatility		164.43	%		129.95	%
Remaining Term		1.13 years			1.47 years
Stock price at valuation date	$	0.9043		$	0.0976

Grainland and Empire Pharmacies:

On December 28, 2017, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary NuGenerex, completed the acquisition of the assets and 100% of the membership interests of two pre-operational pharmacies, Empire State Pharmacy Holdings, LLC and Grainland Pharmacy Holdings, LLC, pursuant to the bills of sale for a consideration of $320,000 Promissory Note due and payable in full on June 28, 2018 bearing an annual interest rate of 3%. The note was extended by six months and set to mature with the same terms on December 28, 2018. The note remains active and interest has continued to accrue while new terms of the note are in process of being negotiated.

We finalized our allocation of the purchase price as of January 31, 2019. The final allocation of the purchase price as of January 31, 2019, is as follows:

	Preliminary Allocation as of December 28, 2017		Allocation Adjustments		Final Allocation
Intangible assets (licenses)	$	276,380	$	—	$	276,380
Property and equipment		19,879		—		19,879
Computer software acquired		5,980		—		5,980
Leasehold Improvements		17,761		—		17,761
Total assets acquired		320,000		—		320,000
Consideration:
Note Payable		320,000				320,000
Goodwill	$	—			$	—

The entire value of the intangible assets represent the licenses obtained to operate a pharmacy in the respective state of each of the acquired pharmacies. Intangible assets are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the assets. The Company is currently not amortizing the pharmacy license until the pharmacies becomes commercially viable and operations begin in the acquired pharmacies. At the time, when the licenses are placed in service, the Company will determine a useful life.

Since acquisition, Grainland Pharmacy Holdings, LLC ceased to operate. Accordingly, the value allocated to its tangible assets, leasehold improvements and licenses acquired for $99,519 was charged to impairment of long-live assets.

Veneto:

On October 3, 2018, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Veneto Holdings, L.L.C. (“Veneto”) to purchase certain assets of Veneto.  

Effective as at October 3, 2018, NuGenerex Distribution Solutions, LLC assigned the Veneto Asset Purchase Agreement to NuGenerex Distribution Solutions 2, LLC.  The sole member of that LLC is NuGenerex Management Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Generex Biotechnology Corporation.

The aggregate purchase price for the Assets, is $35,000,000 including the Promissory Note.  At the Second Closing, the Company will pay the principal of the Promissory Note plus interest to Veneto, (i) $9,000,000 will be paid by the Company into a trust or other fiduciary account acceptable to Veneto to be used exclusively for satisfaction of certain contingent liabilities of Veneto and subsidiaries of Veneto not being acquired by the Company, (ii) $3,000,000 will be paid by the Company into an escrow account to secure potential obligations of Veneto in respect of the Second Closing date working capital and under the indemnification provisions of the Agreement and (iii) the balance will be payable directly to Veneto in cash.

The Company had also entered into a temporary fee-for-service arrangement with Veneto and one of its subsidiaries for Veneto to provide management, personnel, operational, administrative and other services with respect to the First Closing Assets pending the Second Closing. At the Second Closing, all of Veneto personnel providing these services became employees or consultants of the Company, and, therefore, Veneto no longer provides these services.

At the First Closing, the Promissory Note issued to Veneto in the original principal amount of $15,000,000 with interest at an annual rate of 5.0% and guaranteed by Generex and Joseph Moscato, and secured by a first priority security interest in the Company’s assets other than the First Closing Assets was subsequently cancelled upon the issuance of the new promissory note on the Second Closing in the principal amount of $35,000,000 with an annual of 12.0% and guaranteed by Generex and Joseph Moscato. There was $62,500 of accrued interest on the $15,000,000 note and an additional $1,050,000 of accrued interest on the new $35,000,000 promissory note for a total of $1,112,500 of accrued interest for the six months ended January 31, 2019.

On November 1, 2018 the Company consummated the acquisition of the Second Closing Assets, consisting primarily of Veneto’s management services organization business and two additional ancillary services. The aggregate price for the First Closing Assets and the Second Closing Assets was $30,000,000. The Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $35,000,000 (the “New Note”) consisting of the $30,000,000 purchase price and a $5,000,000 original issue discount, as the sole consideration payable on the Second Closing Date. In addition, we agreed to assume approximately $3.8 million in outstanding institutional debt of Veneto subsidiaries, but will have the use of Veneto cash which would otherwise have been applied to paying down the debt.

On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Veneto and the equity owners of Veneto (the “Veneto Members”) entered into restructuring the payment of the New Note that provided in lieu of any cash payments, the Company would deliver 8,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Generex Shares”) to be delivered on or before April 22, 2019; plus an aggregate 5,500,000 shares of the Company’s subsidiary, common stock of Antigen Express, Inc. The Company and the Veneto Members established a value of the Company’s common stock related to this conversion of debt at $2.50/share, but upon a final pay date of June 14, 2020 (the “Pay Date”) the Veneto Members will receive additional compensatory shares if following results in a positive number: $2.50 (the “Strike Price") per Generex Shares times the shares issued (8,400,000) minus the Sale Price of the proceeds of sale of any Generex Shares by the Members in the interim (“Sale Price”) times the number of Generex Shares sold (“Shares Sold”) divided by the Spot Price of the price of the common voting shares of the Company’s common stock on the Pay Date (“Spot Price”). Any sale above the Strike Price shall be discarded. The Sale Price shall, for calculation under this agreement shall be no less than $1.50 per share. Any actual proceeds of sale that are less than $1.50 per shares shall be calculated at $1.50 regardless of the actual proceeds of sale. As such, the Veneto Members shall have downside protection from $2.50 to $1.50. The downside protection lapses if the volume weighted average price of the Generex Shares, in any period of 90 consecutive trading days, is over $5 per share.

Fair Value of the Veneto Acquisition

The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase price as of the Veneto acquisition as of the First Closing and the Second Closing:

	“First Closing” completed on October 3, 2018		“Second Closing” completed on November 1, 2018		Total
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,410,150	$	—	$	2,410,150
Accounts receivable, net		1,935,078		—		1,935,078
Inventory, net		1,068,856		—		1,068,856

Other assets, net		25,745		—		25,745
Intangible assets, net		35,603		7,110,000		7,145,603
Total assets acquired		8,625,905		7,110,000		15,735,905
Total current liabilities		2,509,887		—		2,509,887
Notes payable		—		3,403,948		3,403,948
Total liabilities assumed		2,509,887		3,403,948		5,913,835
Net identifiable assets acquired		6,116,018		3,706,052		9,822,070
Goodwill		8,883,982		16,293,948		25,177,930
Total consideration transferred	$	15,000,000	$	20,000,000	$	35,000,000

The note receivable for $1,387,763 acquired during the first closing of Veneto on October 3, 2018 has since accrued additional interest and holds a balance of $1,406,051 as of January 31, 2019.

The significant intangible assets identified in the purchase price allocation discussed above include developed software and technology, referral base (recurring revenue from the MSO investments and their use of Company owned pharmacies) and non-compete agreements with continued employment of key employees. Tradenames and trademarks were not valued as tradenames and trademarks will not be maintained going forward. To value the developed software and technology, the Company utilized the relief from royalty method, a form of the income approach to value the developed software and technology which assumes a limited technology life and market share adjusted by assumed obsolescence with a terminal value. The referral base was valued using a multi-period excess earnings method, a form of the income approach. The Company utilized the with and without method, a form of the income approach to value non-compete agreements with Generex.

The preliminary amounts assigned to the identifiable intangible assets, the estimated useful lives, and the estimated amortization expense related to these identifiable intangible assets are as follows:

	Preliminary Fair Value		Average Estimated Life
Developed Software/Technology	$	780,000		5
Referral Base		3,920,000		15
Non-compete agreements		2,410,000		3
	$	7,110,000

Intangible assets are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the assets.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of net assets acquired. Goodwill for Veneto Acquisition was $8.9 million as of the date of the First Closing and $16.3 million as of the date of the Second Closing.

Regentys and Olaregen:

On January 7, 2019, the Company closed two separate Acquisition Agreements pursuant to which the Company acquired a 51% interest in both Regentys Corporation (“Regentys”) and Olaregen Therapeutix Inc. (“Olaregen”).

The Company accounted for the acquisitions of both Regentys and Olaregen as business combinations using the purchase method of accounting as prescribed in Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). In accordance with ASC 805 and ASC 820, the Company used its best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the tangible assets acquired, identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition dates. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The fair values assigned to Regentys’ and Olaregen’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The estimated fair values of these assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are considered preliminary and are based on the information that was available as of the date of the acquisition. The preliminary estimated fair values of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, and identifiable intangible assets may be subject to change as additional information is received. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value are subject to change. The Company expects to finalize the valuations as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the closing date.

Regentys:

On November 28, 2018, Generex and Regentys closed the acquisition of 51% of the outstanding capital stock of Regentys for a total consideration of fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000). On January 7, 2019 the Company completed a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement and related documents effecting the transactions contemplated by the LOI.

Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and Regentys (the “Purchase Agreement”) the Company acquired 12,048,161 newly issued shares of the Regentys common stock representing 51% percent of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Regentys (“Regentys Shares”).

In addition to $400,000 paid to Regentys upon signing of the LOI, the purchase price for the Regentys Shares will consist of the following cash payments, with the proceeds intended to be used for specific purposes, as noted:

• $3,450,000 to initiate pre-clinical activities on or before January 15, 2018. As of the date this quarterly report was filed, the Company has paid $650,000 and the remaining balance of $2,800,000 is payable on or before April 1, 2019.

• $2,000,000 to initiate patient recruitment activities on or before May 1, 2019.

• $3,000,000 to initiate a first-in-human pilot study on or before September 1, 2019.

• $5,000,000 to initiate a human pivotal study on or before February 1, 2020.

• $1,150,000 to submit a 510(k) de novo submission to the FDA on or about February 1, 2021.

The Company issued its Promissory Note in the amount of $14,600,000 (the “Note’) representing its obligation to pay the above amounts. The Note is secured by a pledge of the Regentys shares pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement. In the event that Generex does not make any of the first three payments listed above, at Regentys’ option either:

• Generex will forfeit all of the Regentys shares issued with no refund of amounts paid; or

• Generex will issue shares of its common stock to Regentys equivalent to 110% of the value of the missing payment, which shares will be registered for resale.

In the event Generex does not make either or both of the fourth and fifth payments, its share ownership of Regentys will be proportionately reduced.

On March 14, 2019, the Company and Regentys amended the Stock Purchase Agreement and Promissory Note to extend the due date of the remaining balance of the first tranche of Guaranteed Payments amounting to $2,800,000 on or before April 1, 2019. The extension of this due date has no impact on the existing schedule of future payments or any additional terms within the Note. Generex did not furnish payments on April 1, 2019. Regentys has not filed any notice of default as of the date of publication, and Generex continues to provide Regentys with business opportunities continuing the relationship.

See Note 8 – Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest.

Olaregen:

On November 27, 2018, Generex and Olaregen entered into a binding letter of intent (“LOI”) contemplating the Company’s acquisition of 51% of the outstanding capital stock of Olaregen for a total consideration of twelve million dollars ($12,000,000). As of January 7, 2019, the Company completed a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) and related documents effecting the transactions contemplated by the LOI.

The Company acquired 3,282,632 newly issued shares of the Olaregen common stock representing 51% percent of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Olaregen (“Olaregen Shares”).

In addition to $400,000 paid to Olaregen upon signing of the LOI, the purchase price for the Olaregen Shares will consist of the following cash payments:

• $800,000 on or before January 15, 2019. The Company has paid this installment.

• $800,000 on or before January 31, 2019. As of the date this quarterly report was filed, the Company has paid $200,000 of this installment and remaining balance of $600,000 is payable on or before April 1, 2019.

• $3,000,000 on or before April 1, 2019.

• $1,000,000. On or before May 31, 2019.

• $6,000,000.00 on or before September 30, 2019.

The Company issued its Promissory Note in the amount of $11,600,000 (the “Note’) representing its obligation to pay the above amounts. The Note is secured by a pledge of the Olaregen shares pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement. In the event that Generex fails to pay the installment due on September 30, 2019, Generex will forfeit the shares allocated to that installment (1,600,000 Olaregen shares) and Olaregen will be entitled to “claw back” fifty percent (50%) of any and all shares paid for by the prior payments.

On March 14, 2019, the Company and Olaregen amended the Stock Purchase Agreement and Promissory Note to extend the due date of the remaining balance of the second tranche of Guaranteed Payments amounting to $600,000 on or before April 1, 2019. The extension of this due date has no impact on the existing schedule of future payments or any additional terms within the Note. Generex did not furnish payments on April 1, 2019. Olaregen has not filed any notice of default as of the date of publication, and Generex continues to provide Olaregen with business opportunities continuing the relationship.

In the event Generex does not make any other payments, its share ownership of Olaregen will be proportionately reduced.

Generex has a limited anti-dilution right under the Purchase Agreement, to ensure that Generex will retain 51% ownership in Olaregen for a period of time.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase price as of the Olaregen acquisition:

	Preliminary Allocation as of January 7, 2019

Deferred Tax Liability

As a result of the acquisition of Regentys and Olaregen, the purchase price allocation attributed to deferred tax liability of $889,782 and $1,040,173, respectfully. The Company has deferred tax assets of over $92 million with a full allowance equally to the to the amount of the deferred tax asset. Although the Company deferred tax assets are in excess of deferred tax liabilities totaling $1,929,955, the Company cannot offset the deferred tax liabilities against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the Company to realize any value of its deferred tax assets. In addition, the Company acquired 51% of each of Regentys and Olaregen, less than the 80% required to permit the Company to consolidate with Regentys and Olaregen for tax purposes. Therefore, the deferred tax liabilities will be reported separately until such time that the Company determines otherwise.
