Note 15 - Related Party Transactions In the ordinary course of operations, the Company enters into transactions with related parties, as discussed below.
Founder Loan On January 29, 2020, the Company recognized a $119.0 million loan to an entity controlled by the Founder, which was recorded as a reduction of “Limited Partners’ interest” in the consolidated balance sheets. In connection with the dividends paid, the Company’s Founder repaid $25.6 million of the loan (the "Founder Loan"), which was recorded as an increase to Limited Partners’ Interest. As of December 31, 2020, $93.4 million remained outstanding. On January 14, 2021, our Founder settled the outstanding balance of the loan plus accrued interest for a total of $95.5 million when Bumble Holdings distributed the loan in redemption of 63,643,425 Class A units held by Beehive Holdings III, LP with a hypothetical fair value equal to $95.5 million (such Class A units, the “Loan Settlement Units”). Since the value of the Loan Settlement Units redeemed by Bumble Holdings, determined using the volume-weighted average price of the Class A Common Stock on Nasdaq during the regular trading session as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the 30-day period beginning on February 16, 2021 (the “Applicable VWAP”) exceeded the implied value of the Loan Settlement Units on the settlement date for purposes of repaying the loan, Bumble Holdings delivered to Beehive Holdings III, LP 3,252,056 Common Units which are exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock having a value based on the Applicable VWAP equal to such excess amount. The settlement of the Founder loan was recorded as an equity transaction with no net impact to the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Underwriting of IPO Blackstone Securities Partners L.P., an affiliate of Blackstone, underwrote 4.1 million of the 57.5 million shares of Class A common stock offered to the market in the IPO, with underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.935 per share paid by the Company.
Redemption of Class A Common Stock and Purchase Common Units in Connection with the IPO The Company used the proceeds from the issuance of 48.5 million shares ($1,991.6 million) in the IPO to redeem shares of Class A common stock and purchase Common Units from our Sponsor, at a price per share / Common Unit equal to the IPO price, net of underwriting discounts and commissions.
