Disposal of Business

On November 4, 2019, the Company and Verisure concurrently entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and Supply Agreement (the “Supply Agreement” and together with the Purchase Agreement, the “Verisure Agreements”). The Verisure Agreements created a strategic partnership that leverages both the Company and Verisure’s capabilities to create incremental scale to address the ever-growing demand for residential and commercial security. The strategic partnership will combine the Company’s innovative connected cameras and cloud services platform with Verisure’s professionally monitored security solutions to provide a new level of smart security for European customers. The Purchase Agreement provided that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Company transferred, sold and assigned to Verisure certain assets (the "Assets") related to the Company’s commercial operations in Europe (the "Business") to Verisure for $50.0 million in cash plus additional cash for certain inventory. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties regarding Verisure, the Business and the Assets, indemnification provisions, termination rights and other customary provisions. The Company has agreed not to engage in any business that competes with the Business for a period of three years.

The transaction closed on December 30, 2019 pursuant to which the Company received $52.7 million including working capital adjustments, which resulted in a pretax gain of $54.9 million in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2019. In the first fiscal quarter of 2020, the Company recorded an additional gain of $292 thousand that was recorded in Gain on sale of business in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations as a result of the final working capital adjustment. As part of the transaction, certain employees were transferred to Verisure. These employees hold Company RSU awards, and the terms of the RSU awards were modified such that the RSU awards will continue to vest and settle after closing of the transaction in accordance with the original terms and conditions of RSU awards. Refer to Note.13 Employee Benefit Plans, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further detail relating to this modification.

    The assets and liabilities sold and assigned to Verisure were determined to have met the criteria to be classified as held for sale as of November 4, 2019, the execution date of the Purchase Agreement. The transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement did not meet the criteria for discontinued operations as the Company is expected to have continued involvement in Europe through manufacturing and shipping of products to the region through sales to Verisure as part of the Supply Agreement and therefore no significant change in revenue from the region is expected; it was determined the transaction did not represent a strategic shift. The Company also assessed whether a loss is needed to be recorded upon initial classification of the assets and liabilities as held for sale to adjust its carrying amount to the fair value less cost to sell. As the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities was lower than fair value less cost to sell, no adjustment was necessary. As of the

closing date of December 30, 2019, the Company concluded that no impairment exists for the assets and no adjustment was necessary for the liabilities. Further, the Company reassessed the fair value and cost to sell, and noted that they did not change since the initial classification of the assets and liabilities as held for sale. Given such, no loss adjustment was necessary.

The Supply Agreement provides that Verisure will become the exclusive distributor of Company products in Europe for all channels, and will non-exclusively distribute the Company's products through its direct channels globally for an initial terms of five years. During the five-year period commencing January 1, 2020, Verisure has an aggregate purchase commitment of $500.0 million. As of December 31, 2020, $47.3 million of the purchase commitment has been fulfilled. In 2019 and 2020, Verisure prepaid the Company $20.0 million for product purchases in fiscal 2020 and $40.0 million for product purchases in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022, respectively.

The Supply Agreement also provides certain NRE service to Verisure, including developing certain custom products specified by Verisure in exchange for an aggregate of $10.0 million, payable in installments upon meeting certain development milestones. In the second fiscal quarter of 2020, an additional $3.5 million was added to the contract price as a result of a modification to Verisure's specification for the Outdoor Custom Camera. As of December 31, 2020, Verisure has paid $7.5 million for this NRE service. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has recognized service revenue of $7.9 million for this NRE service.

As part of the Purchase Agreement, the Company also entered into a Transition Services Agreement with Verisure (“Verisure TSA”) to assist Verisure with the transition of the Company’s European commercial operations. These transition services primarily include IT support and other services, including sales and marketing, operations and supply chain, finance, legal, and human resources. As compensation for these transition services, the Company will be reimbursed by Verisure based on actual direct costs plus allocation of overhead. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company charged Verisure $4.0 million for Verisure TSA services which was recorded as Other income, given such services are not related to the primary business in which the Company operates. The related Verisure TSA expenses in the same amount were recognized as incurred and reported under their natural expense classification.
