Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors and Members of Superscape Group plc
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Superscape Group plc as of January 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, statements of recognized income and expenditure, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Superscape Group plc at January 31, 2008 and 2007, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
The consolidated financial statements of Superscape Group PLC (the ‘Group’) for the year ended 31 January 2008 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution by the Board of Directors on 24 April 2008 and the balance sheet was signed on the Board’s behalf by A. Pimentel. Superscape Group PLC is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in England & Wales and its ordinary shares are traded on the London Stock Exchange. Effective 6 April 2008, the Group’s shares were delisted.
The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and IFRS as adopted by the European Union (EU). IFRS as adopted by the EU differs in certain respects from IFRS as issued by the IASB, however, the differences have no impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the years presented. The principle accounting policies adopted by the Group are set out in note 2.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in US Dollars and have been prepared on a historical cost basis. The functional currency of the parent company is UK Sterling.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Adopted IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. The measurement and impairment assessment of intangible assets and goodwill, the measurement and recoverability assessment of advanced royalties and the estimation of share based payment costs are the key areas that require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the result of which form the basis for making the judgments about carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision only affects that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Presentation of financial information
As the Group’s principal assets and operations are based in the US and the majority of its operations are conducted in US Dollars, the Group changed its reporting currency from Pounds Sterling to US Dollars with effect from 1 February 2007. The Group redenominated its share capital into US Dollars on 1 February 2007 and will retain all reserves in US Dollars. Financial information for prior periods has been restated from Pounds Sterling into US Dollars in accordance with IAS 21.

Changes in accounting policy
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous year except as follows:
The Group has adopted the following new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations during the year. Adoption of these revised standards and interpretations did not have any effect on the financial performance or position of the Group in the current or prior periods. In certain cases they did however give rise to additional disclosures. The principal effects of these changes are as follows:
IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures
This standard requires disclosures that enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the significance of the Group’s financial instruments and the nature and extent of the risks arising from those financial instruments. The new disclosures are included throughout the financial statements. While there has been no effect on the financial position or results, comparative information has been revised where necessary.
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements
This amendment requires the Group to make new disclosures to enable users of financial statements to evaluate the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital. These new disclosures are shown within the Directors report.
IFRIC 8 Scope of IFRS 2
This interpretation requires IFRS 2 to be applied to any arrangements in which the entity cannot identify specifically some or all of the goods received, in particular where equity instruments are issued for consideration which appear to be less than fair value. As equity instruments are only issued to employees in accordance with the employee share schemes, this interpretation has no impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.
IFRIC 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives
IFRIC 9 states that the date to assess the existence of an embedded derivative is the date that an entity first becomes a party to a contract, with measurement only if there is a change to the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows. As the Group has no embedded derivatives, this interpretation has no impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.
IFRIC 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment
The Group adopted IFRIC 10 as of 1 February 2007, which requires that an entity must not reverse an impairment loss recognised in a previous interim period in respect to goodwill or an investment in either an equity instrument or a financial asset carried at cost. As the Group had no impairment losses previously reversed, the interpretation had no impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

6


 

Basis of consolidation
The financial statements consolidate the accounts of Superscape Group plc and all its subsidiaries for the year ended 31 January 2008. Intra-group transactions and profits are eliminated fully on consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and all its subsidiaries for the full year or from the date of acquisition if later. Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Deferred consideration payable in shares is initially recorded at fair value. Upon subsequent issuance of the shares, the nominal value is recorded in share capital with the excess recorded in share premium. Identifiable assets and liabilities acquired and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of the acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate prevailing on the balance sheet date.
Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and expense of foreign operations are translated at the average rate of exchange for the period. Exchange differences arising are transferred to translation reserve. Cumulative translation differences are recognised within the income statement in the period in which operations are disposed of.
Revenue
Revenues are derived primarily by licensing software products in the form of mobile games. License arrangements with the end user can be on an outright purchase or subscription basis. An outright purchase gives an end user the right to use the licensed game on the registered handset for as long as they own the handset. A subscription license gives an end user the right to use the licensed game for a limited period of time, usually one month. The Group distributes its products through mobile telecommunications service providers (“carriers"), which then market the games to end users. License fees for outright purchase and subscription licenses are usually billed by the carrier upon download of the game by the end user. Subsequent billings for subscription licenses are generally billed monthly. Revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the game has been delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and the collection of the resulting receivable is probable.
The Group derives limited revenue under third party software development contracts. Revenue and associated costs under these arrangements are recognized as follows:

7


 

On long-term contracts, those with a duration of more than 12 months or those contracts that span more than one accounting period, using a percentage basis as the work is completed and any relevant milestones are met, using latest estimates to determine the expected duration and cost of the project
On short-term contracts, when the completed project has been delivered to and accepted by, the customer.
Interest income is recognized as the interest accrues to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
Rental income arising from the sublease of property accounted for as an operating lease is recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the lease and is offset against the rental cost of such property.
Advanced royalties
Royalty advances paid to Intellectual Property owners are deferred as a prepayment in order to be matched with the revenue generated following the release of the game. The royalties are charged to the income statement when the actual liability arises, which is when the sales are generated after the release of the game.
Management assesses the carrying value of the prepaid advance royalties on a semi annual basis. The assessment is based on the likely recoverability of the advance on a title by title basis in the context of up to date revenue projections for each title. Advances paid on games that are subsequently aborted are written off to sales and marketing expense on the date that the game is aborted. Reserves are provided and charged to sales and marketing expense where the projected revenues are not considered sufficient to cover the advances.
Research and development
Expenditure on research is written off in the period in which it is incurred.
Development expenditure is capitalised where it relates to a specific project where technical feasibility has been established, adequate technical, financial and other resources exist to complete the project, the expenditure attributable to the project can be measured reliably and overall project profitability is reasonably certain. In this case, it is recognised as an intangible asset and amortised over its useful economic life, typically being a maximum period of eighteen months from the date the product is first sold or licenced. All other development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on assets at rates calculated to write-off the cost less residual values, estimated at each balance sheet date, of each asset over its expected useful life as follows:
     
Fixtures and fittings
  10% — 20% straight line
Computer equipment
  33% — 50% straight line
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

8


 

Goodwill
On the acquisition of a subsidiary or business, the purchase consideration is allocated between the identifiable assets and liabilities on a fair value basis, with any excess purchase consideration representing goodwill, which is not amortised.
Goodwill is recognised as an intangible asset and reviewed for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the income statement and may not be subsequently reversed.
Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. As at the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the cash generating units expected to benefit from the combination’s synergies. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets. This is usually at business segment level or statutory company level as the case may be. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount an impairment loss is recognised. On disposal of a subsidiary or business, the attributable goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are carried initially at cost. An intangible asset acquired as part of a business combination is recognised outside goodwill if the asset is separable or arises from contractual or other legal rights and its fair value can be measured reliably. Intangible assets acquired as part of business combinations comprise: customer based assets (e.g. network operator lists, network operator relationships); software and systems (e.g. developed software games, application infrastructure, product delivery platforms, in-process research and development); contract-based assets (e.g publishing rights); and other intangible assets. Purchased intangible assets comprise patents.
Following initial recognition, the historic cost model is applied, with intangible assets being carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with a finite life have no residual value and are amortised on a straight line basis over their expected useful lives with charges included in administrative expenses, as follows:
  purchased intangibles (e,g, patents and trademarks) — 5 years
 
  acquired through business combinations — 4-5 years;
The carrying value of intangible assets is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In addition, the carrying value of capitalised development expenditure is reviewed for impairment annually before being brought into use.
Research and development tax credits
Research and development tax credits are recognised in full in the income statement of the year in which the expense is incurred.

Impairment
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses on continuing operations are recognised in the income statement in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.
An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in income statement unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
Provisions
A provision is recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect is material, expected future cash flows are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance policy, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when recovery is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to unwinding the discount is recognised as a finance cost.
Employee benefits
The Group contributes to defined contribution schemes for the benefit of its directors and employees. Contributions to these schemes are charged in the period in which they become payable.
Share-based payments
The fair value of share-based remuneration is determined at date of grant and recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, taking account of the estimated number of shares that will vest. The fair value is determined by use of a Black-Scholes pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations. All share-based remuneration is equity-settled.

10


 

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised over the remainder of the vesting period for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax is the tax arising on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable loss, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax is not recognised on temporary differences arising in respect of goodwill that is not deductible for tax purposes.
No provision is made for deferred tax which would become payable on the distribution of retained profits by foreign subsidiaries, unless there is an intention to distribute such retained profits.
Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Movements in deferred tax are charged or credited in the income statement, except when they relate to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.
Leases
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight line basis. The aggregate benefit of incentives are recognised as a reduction of rental expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the Group’s benefit from the use of the leased asset.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are recognised at the lower of their original value and recoverable amount. Provision is made where there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to recover balances in full. Where the probability of recovery is remote balances are written off.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and short term deposits with an original maturity of up to 3 months.

    (13 )     37,361       (13 )     38,139  
 
Deferred tax liabilities have been recognised in respect of rolled over gains. Deferred tax assets of $12.126m (2007: $12.909m) in respect of trading losses in the US and deferred tax assets of $23.768m (2007: $24.325m) in respect of trading losses in the UK have not been recognised due to the uncertainty of the availability of future profits against which to utilise them. Net operating losses for US tax purposes expire over periods through 2028. UK net operating losses carry forward without limit of time. There is no potential deferred tax asset on the unremitted earnings of overseas subsidiaries.
From 1 April 2008, the UK corporation tax rate will reduce from 30% to 28%. This rate change will affect both the rate of future cash tax payments to be made by the group and also reduces the size of the deferred tax asset. Changes to the UK capital allowance regime have also been announced. The most significant of these changes for the group is the reduction in the rate of capital allowances for plant and machinery expenditure from 25% to 20% per annum on a reducing balance basis from 1 April 2008. The effects of all these changes will be fully reflected in the financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2009. However the effect of the tax rate change has already been reflected in these accounts in so far as it affects the calculation of the unrecognised deferred tax asset carried forward at 31 January 2008 as this would be the rate expected to apply when the assets are utilised.

Patents are being amortised on a straight line basis over their expected economic life of 5 years.
An impairment loss of $291,000 (2007: $332,000) has been recorded to recognize the decreased value of the intangible asset recorded during 2007 in connection with the renegotiation of the Group’s licensing agreement with GWE. The decreased value is attributable to reduced sales of titles licensed from GWE. In addition, impairment losses of $21,000 (2007: $141,000) have been recorded for the write-down of capitalized patent costs where the Group has determined that the carrying value of such patents exceeds their net realizable value.

12. IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF GOODWILL
The Group has goodwill that has been acquired through business combinations but does not have any intangible assets that have indefinite lives. The goodwill has been allocated for impairment testing purposes to individual companies on the basis that these are the lowest level cash generating units at which the Group is able to monitor the resulting goodwill.
The recoverable amount for the cash generating units has been determined using cash flow projections (value in use method) based on financial budgets approved by the board for the year ending 31 January 2009. The cash flows beyond 31 January 2009 have been extrapolated based on internal sales forecasts of revenues, for a period of 3 to 5 years.
The discount rate applied to cash flow projections is 19%.

Key assumptions in value in use calculations
The calculation of value in use are most sensitive to the following:
Gross margins — these have been based on the projected gross margin from the 2008/09 budget which took into account gross margins in the immediately preceding period as adjusted for any operational changes.
Discount rates — these reflect management’s estimates of the cost of capital adjusted for the inherent risk associated with the forecasted royalty revenue stream.
Revenue projections — these have been based on the projected revenues by title from the 2008/09 budget which took into account revenue performance in the immediately preceding period as adjusted for operational and market changes. They also reflect management’s estimates of the shelf life of individual game titles based on a historic review of existing internal titles and the performance of similar titles across the market as a whole.
There has been no impairment of goodwill in 2008 (2007: nil)
Sensitivity to change in assumptions
Management believe that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying value of the units to exceed the recoverable amount.

19. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The disclosures required by IFRS 7 in relation to the nature of financial instruments used during the period to mitigate liquidity and foreign currency risk are disclosed below:
The Group’s financial instruments comprise cash and liquid resources as well as items such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise directly from the Group’s operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to provide finance for the Group’s operations. It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments should be undertaken.
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below. These policies have remained unchanged throughout the period.
Interest Rate risk
As stated above, the Group’s only financial instruments comprise cash and liquid resources as well as items such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise directly from the Group’s operations and its policy is to limit its exposure to interest rates by placing deposits on the money markets with a range of maturities of up to 12 months.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, of the Group’s profit before taxes (through the impact on floating rate deposits). There is no impact on the Group’s equity

Foreign currency risk
Historically, the Group has not used derivative instruments to hedge against possible risks arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as the exposure has been limited.
The Group has subsidiaries operating in the United Kingdom and Moscow which have assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. With effect from 1 February 2007, the Group’s reporting currency was changed to the US Dollar. Upon conversion of the assets and liabilities of the companies operating in the UK and Russia into US Dollars an exposure results from exchange rate movements on the Group’s US Dollar balance sheet.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in US Dollar against the Pound exchange rates, with all other variables held constant, of the Group’s profit before taxes (due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities). There is no impact on the Group’s equity

Floating interest rate financial assets comprise cash and short-term deposits on money market deposit at call which earn interest at floating rates by reference to Sterling LIBOR and the US Federal Funds rate
Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities
The carrying value of all financial assets and liabilities approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of the instruments held.
The Group’s other foreign currency denomination assets and liabilities are not significant.
Credit risk
There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group. The maximum credit risk exposure relating to financial assets is represented by carrying value as at the balance sheet date.

22. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
Superscape has three schemes for which there are grants outstanding but not exercised. Since October 2003 two of the schemes are closed and options have only been granted under the remaining 1999 Performance Related Stock Incentive Plan. A description of the plan is included in the Directors’ Remuneration Report. The fair value of all options granted since 7th November 2002 and not vested as at 1st February 2006 is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The expense for the year ended 31 January 2008 was $515,000 (2007 $401,000). The fair value has been measured using the Black-Scholes model.
The material inputs into the model have been:

Introductory Note
     On January 23, 2008, Glu Mobile Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Glu” or the “Company”) announced that it would be commencing a recommended cash offer (the “Offer”) to be made for all of the outstanding shares of Superscape Group plc (“Superscape”). On March 7, 2008, Glu’s directors announced that all of the conditions of the Offer had been satisfied or waived, and the Offer was declared unconditional in all respects. As of March 7, 2008, Glu Mobile Inc. purchased or had valid acceptances to approximately 83.3% of the issued share capital of Superscape. On March 20, 2008, Glu had purchased or received valid acceptances representing approximately 93.57% of the issued share capital of Superscape. Accordingly, Glu’s directors decided that the Offer would close on March 21, 2008. Upon completion of the tender offer, Glu made an aggregate cash payment to Superscape shareholders of approximately £18.3 million, or approximately $36.5 million based on the exchange rate at the close date of March 7, 2008. Glu has applied the provisions of sections 979 to 991 (inclusive) of the Companies Act 2006 of the United Kingdom to acquire all remaining Superscape shares on the same terms as the tender offer.
     As of May 13, 2008, the Company had purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of Superscape for a total purchase price of $38,622 which consisted of cash consideration paid to Superscape shareholders of $36,843 and transaction costs of $1,779.
     The Company acquired Superscape in order to expand its access and rights to leading franchises for the US markets, and to augment its internal production and publishing resources. These factors contributed to a purchase price in excess of the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, and, as a result, the Company recorded goodwill in connection with this transaction.
     On December 19, 2007, the Company acquired the net assets of Awaken Limited group affiliates. Awaken Limited’s principal operations are through Beijing Zhangzhong MIG Information Technology (“MIG”), a domestic limited liability company organized under the laws of the PRC. In these proforma combined condensed financial information, we will refer to the acquired companies as “MIG”. The Company acquired MIG in order to accelerate the company’s presence in China, to deepen Glu’s relationship with China Mobile, the largest wireless carrier in China, to acquire access and rights to leading franchises for the Chinese market, and to augment its internal production and publishing resources in China. These factors contributed to a purchase price in excess of the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, and, as a result, the Company recorded goodwill in connection with this transaction.
     The Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of MIG for a total purchase price of $15,228 which consisted of cash consideration paid to MIG shareholders of $14,655 and transaction costs of $573. In addition, subject to MIG’s achievement of revenue and operating income milestones for the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company committed to pay additional consideration of $20,000 to the MIG shareholders and bonus payment of $5,000 to two officers of MIG, who are also shareholders. If earned, one half of the bonus (or $2,500) will be paid on the earn-out payment date and one half will be paid on December 31, 2009, if the officers continue their employment with the Company. As of the acquisition date, these two officers owned 27% of the outstanding shares of MIG. Per their employment agreements, these two shareholders will be entitled to one half of their proportionate share of the earned additional consideration (or $2,700) on the earn-out payment date and one half of their proportionate share of the earned additional consideration on December 31, 2009, if they continue their employment with the Company. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations”, we have not recorded the additional consideration or bonus in the initial purchase price as these amounts are contingent on MIG’s future earnings. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 98-5, “Accounting for Contingent Consideration Paid to the Shareholders of an Acquired

 


 

Enterprise in a Purchase Business Combination”, we will record the estimated contingent consideration and bonus earned by the two officers (totaling $10,400) as compensation over the two year vesting period ending December 31, 2009.
     The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations gives effect to the acquisition by the Company of MIG and the acquisition by the Company of all of the outstanding shares of Superscape as if the acquisitions had been completed as of January 1, 2007.

NOTE 1 – PURCHASE PRICE — Superscape
     The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of Superscape from the date of acquisition. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocated the total purchase price of $38,622, which consisted of cash consideration paid to Superscape shareholders of $36,843 and transaction costs of $1,779, to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.

     The valuation of the identifiable intangible assets acquired was based on management’s estimates, currently available information and reasonable and supportable assumptions. The allocation was generally based on the fair value of these assets determined using the income and market approaches. Of the total purchase price, $18,030 was allocated to amortizable intangible assets. The amortizable intangible assets are being amortized over the respective estimated useful life of one to six years. The fair value and estimated useful lives of the major amortizable intangible assets purchased from Superscape were as follows:

     In conjunction with the acquisition of Superscape, the Company recorded a $1,110 expense for acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) during the first quarter of 2008 because feasibility of the acquired technology had not been established and no future alternative uses existed. The IPR&D expense was included in operating expenses in our consolidated statements of operation in the year ended December 31, 2008. The in-process research and development charge has not been included in the accompanying unaudited proforma condensed combined statements of operations as it represents a non-recurring charge directly related to the acquisition. The IPR&D expense has been included in the accumulated deficit of the unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2007.
     The IPR&D is related to the development of several new mobile game titles. The Company determined the value of acquired IPR&D using the discounted cash flow approach. The Company calculated the present value of the expected future cash flows attributable to the in-process technology using a 22% discount rate. This rate takes into account the percentage of completion of the development effort of approximately 36% and the risks associated with the Company’s developing this technology given changes in trends and technology in the industry. As of May 21, 2008, these acquired IPR&D projects have been completed at costs similar to the original projections.
     The residual value of $11,420 has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually.

     The pro forma adjustments do not reflect any integration adjustments to be incurred in connection with the merger or operating efficiencies and costs savings that may be achieved with respect to the combined entities as these costs are not directly attributable to the purchase agreement.

     The above table includes reductions to acquired goodwill to reflect adjustments to certain assumed liabilities upon completion of the purchase price allocation.
     The valuation of the identifiable intangible assets acquired was based on management’s estimates, currently available information and reasonable and supportable assumptions. The allocation was generally based on the fair value of these assets determined using the income and market approaches. Of the total purchase price, $11,710 was allocated to amortizable intangible assets. The amortizable intangible assets are being amortized over the respective estimated useful life of two to nine years. The

     In conjunction with the acquisition of MIG, the Company recorded a $59 expense for acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) because feasibility of the acquired technology had not been established and no future alternative uses existed. The IPR&D expense is included in operating expenses in our consolidated statements of operation in the year ended December 31, 2007. The in-process research and development charge has not been included in the accompanying unaudited proforma condensed combined statements of operations as it represents a non-recurring charge directly related to the acquisition.
     The IPR&D is related to the development a new mobile game title. The Company determined the value of acquired IPR&D using the discounted cash flow approach. The Company calculated the present value of the expected future cash flows attributable to the in-process technology using a 21% discount rate. This rate takes into account the percentage of completion of the development effort of approximately 60% and the risks associated with the Company’s developing this technology given changes in trends and technology in the industry. As of February 28, 2008, this acquired IPR&D project had been completed at costs similar to the original projections.
     The residual value of $7,949 has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment at least annually.

 


 

     The pro forma adjustments do not reflect any integration adjustments to be incurred in connection with the merger or operating efficiencies and costs savings that may be achieved with respect to the combined entities as these costs are not directly attributable to the purchase agreement.
NOTE 2 — PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
     The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements have been prepared as if the acquisitions of MIG and Superscape had been completed on January 1, 2007 for statement of operations purposes and as of December 31, 2007 for balance sheet purposes and to reflect the following pro forma adjustments:
  (1)   Represents the cash consideration and acquisition expenses from the acquisition of Superscape.
 
  (2)   To record the amortizable intangible assets of $16,920 and goodwill of $11,420 and record a non-recurring charge for the write-off of in process research and development of $1,110 to accumulated deficit, because feasibility of the acquired technology has not been established and no future alternative use exists. The adjustment to intangible assets and goodwill includes an elimination of amortizable intangible assets and goodwill previously recorded by Superscape of $2,269 and $2,389, respectively.
 
  (3)   Represents accrued restructuring costs incurred as of the date of acquisition, primarily employee severance costs of $1,740 and facility, employee transition costs of $241 and other agreement termination fees of $25.
 
  (4)   To eliminate the historical shareholders’ deficit of Superscape.
 
  (5)   To record the amortization of the amortizable intangible assets resulting from the purchase of Superscape as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2007, net of amortization of intangible assets previously recorded by Superscape. See Note 1 above for the estimated useful lives and amortization for each amortizable intangible asset.
 
  (6)   To record the amortization of the amortizable intangible assets resulting from the purchase of MIG as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2007. See Note 1 above for the estimated useful lives and amortization for each amortizable intangible asset.
 
  (7)   Adjustment to reduce interest income for the cash consideration paid and record imputed interest expense on borrowings that would have been issued to finance the acquisition, had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2007. The decrease in interest income was calculated using the average interest rate for the Company’s invested cash and short-term investments. The interest expense was calculated based upon excess of the Superscape acquisition cash requirements over the available cash balances and the Company’s cost of capital.
 
  (8)   To eliminate the in process research and development charge of $59 from the acquisition of MIG because the charge is nonrecurring and feasibility of the acquired technology had not been established and no future alternative uses exist.
