2021 Acquisitions

BioFlex Solutions LLC and Newton T&M Corp.

On November 29, 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement with Bioflex, NTM and each of Ralph Meola and Jason Nisler, to acquire 100% of the outstanding securities of Bioflex and NTM (collectively, the “NTM Acquisition”). The transaction closed on December 16, 2021.

NTM, which is headquartered in Newton, New Jersey, is the parent company of BioFlex and focuses on manufacturing of products, while BioFlex, also headquartered in Newton, New Jersey, commercializes branded products to biotech customers. The NTM Acquisition complements and expands our filtration offering paths as the industry migrates to single-use flow paths solutions for monoclonal antibody ("mAb"), vaccine and cell and gene therapy ("C&GT") applications, with a focus on single-use fluid management components, including single-use clamps, adapters, end caps and hose assemblies. The NTM Acquisition streamlines and increases control over many components in our single-use supply chain which ultimately should drive reduced lead-times for Repligen customers in the coming years.

Consideration Transferred

The NTM Acquisition was accounted for as a purchase of businesses under ASC 805, “Business Combinations” and the Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to assist with the valuation of the business acquired. Under the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement, all outstanding shares of capital stock of BioFlex were acquired for consideration with a value totaling $31.6 million, which includes $3.0 million deposited into an escrow against which the Company may make claims for indemnification.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of BioFlex were recorded as of the acquisition date, at their respective fair values, and consolidated with those of the Company. The fair value of the net assets acquired is $4.6 million, the fair value of the intangible assets acquired is $17.2 million, and the residual goodwill is $9.8 million. Acquisition-related costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are expensed in the periods in which costs are incurred. The Company incurred $3.0 million of transaction and integration costs associated with the NTM Acquisition from the date of acquisition to December 31, 2022, with $2.7 million of transaction and integration costs incurred in 2022 and $0.3 million incurred in 2021. The transaction and integration costs are included in operating expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Fair Value of Net Assets Acquired

The allocation of purchase price is based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, based on the final valuation. The Company has made appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation during the measurement period, which ended December 16, 2022.

Avitide, Inc.

On September 16, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (“Avitide Merger Agreement”) with Avalon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company, Avalon Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company, Avitide, a Delaware corporation, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, solely in its capacity

as the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of Avitide's securityholders to purchase Avitide. The transaction closed on September 20, 2021, and on the terms set forth in the Avitide Merger Agreement.

Avitide, which is headquartered in Lebanon, New Hampshire, offers diverse libraries and leading technology in affinity ligand discovery and development resulting in best-in-class ligand discovery and development lead-times. The acquisition gives the Company a new platform for affinity resin development, including C&GT, and advances and expands the Company’s proteins and chromatography franchises to address the unique purification needs of gene therapies and other emerging modalities.

Consideration Transferred

The Avitide Acquisition was accounted for as a purchase of a business under ASC 805, “Business Combinations” and the Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to assist with the valuation of the business acquired. Under the terms of the Avitide Merger Agreement, all outstanding shares of capital stock of Avitide were cancelled and converted into the right to receive merger consideration with a value totaling up to $275.0 million, which consisted of upfront payments in aggregate of $150.0 million ($149.4 million, net of cash acquired) and up to an additional $125.0 million (undiscounted) in contingent consideration earnout payments if certain performance targets are achieved. Total consideration paid also included $0.8 million deposited into an escrow account against which the Company may make claims for indemnification. The Avitide Acquisition was funded through payment of $75.0 million in cash, the issuance of 271,096 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock totaling $83.0 million and contingent consideration with fair value of approximately $88.4 million.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Avitide were recorded as of the acquisition date, at their respective fair values, and consolidated with those of the Company. The fair value of the net assets acquired is $2.1 million, fair value of the intangible assets acquired is $46.7 million, and the residual goodwill is $197.5 million. The Company has incurred $5.6 million of transaction and integration costs associated with the Avitide Acquisition from the date of acquisition to December 31, 2022, with $3.0 million of transaction and integration costs incurred in 2022 and $2.6 million in 2021. The transaction costs are included in operating expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. During 2022 and 2021, due to the change in market inputs and a shift in revenue and volume projections, due to the expected timing of achievement over the three-year performance period, the Company recorded contingent consideration adjustments of ($28.7) million and $5.9 million to the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income in 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 3, "Fair Value Measurements" for additional information.

The preparation of the valuation required the use of significant assumptions and estimates. Critical estimates included, but were not limited to, future expected cash flows, including projected revenues and expenses, and the applicable discount rates. These estimates were based on assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. However, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Acquired Goodwill

The goodwill of $197.5 million represents future economic benefits expected to arise from anticipated synergies from the integration of Avitide.

Substantially all of the goodwill recorded is expected to be nondeductible for income tax purposes. During 2022, the Company recorded adjustments to goodwill of $1.8 million related to a change in estimated tax benefits associated with the net operating loss carryforward filed on the Avitide pre-acquisition tax return. The offset of these adjustments is included in long term deferred tax asset in the table above.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Polymem were recorded as of the acquisition date, at their respective fair values, and consolidated with those of the Company. The fair value of the net assets acquired is $2.2 million, the fair value of the intangible assets acquired is $9.1 million, and the residual goodwill is $35.7 million.

2020 Acquisitions

ARTeSYN Biosolutions Holdings Ireland Limited

On October 27, 2020, the Company entered into an Equity and Asset Purchase Agreement with ARTeSYN, a company organized under the laws of Ireland, Third Creek Holdings, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, Alphinity, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Alphinity”, and together with Third Creek Holdings, LLC the “Sellers”), and Michael Gagne, solely in his capacity as the representative of the Sellers, pursuant to which the Company acquired (i) all of the outstanding equity securities of ARTeSYN and (ii) certain assets from Alphinity related to the business of ARTeSYN (collectively, the “ARTeSYN Acquisition”) for approximately $200 million, comprised of approximately $130 million in cash to the Sellers and approximately $70 million in Repligen common stock to Third Creek. The transaction closed on December 3, 2020.

ARTeSYN is headquartered in Waterford, Ireland and conducts its operations in Ireland, the United States and Estonia. Its suite of single-use solutions has been created with the goal of enabling “abundance in medicine” by allowing 10x greater efficiency in biologics manufacturing. The ARTeSYN team has created a number of solutions targeting the single-use space from single-use valves with fully disposable valve liners, XO® skeletal supports, a hybrid small parts offering for de-bottlenecking traditional facilities, and fully automated SU process systems that have quickly become leading solutions in the bioprocessing industry. In addition to its single-use solutions, ARTeSYN also engages in the manufacture of large-scale systems to be used for biologics manufacturing. ARTeSYN has established downstream processing leadership with a suite of state of the art single-use systems for chromatography, filtration, continuous manufacturing and media/buffer prep workflows. In addition, the Company has integrated unique flow path assemblies utilizing the Company’s silicone extrusion and molding technology, to deliver highly differentiated, low hold-up volume systems that minimize product loss during processing. The ARTeSYN portfolio expands on the market success of the Company’s HF systems and complements its chromatography and tangential flow filtration ("TFF") product lines.

 

Acquisition related costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred. The Company incurred $4.0 million in transaction and integration costs associated with the ARTeSYN Acquisition from the date of acquisition to December 31, 2020, and an additional $4.7 million of transaction and integration costs during 2021. The transaction costs are included in operating expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the period ended December 31, 2021.

Fair Value of Net Assets Acquired

The allocation of purchase price is based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, based on the preliminary valuation. We have made appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation during the measurement period, which ended on December 3, 2021.

During 2021, the Company recorded net working capital adjustments of $0.1 million related to settlement of pre-acquisition liabilities, which offset goodwill in the table below.

Acquired Goodwill

The goodwill of $6.7 million represents future economic benefits expected to arise from anticipated synergies from the integration of NMS. These synergies include certain cost savings, operating efficiencies and other strategic benefits projected to be achieved as a result of the NMS Acquisition. Substantially all of the goodwill recorded is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The Company has included the operating results of our 2021 acquisitions of Polymem, Avitide and NTM and the 2020 acquisitions of ARTeSYN, NMS and EMT in its consolidated statements of comprehensive income since their respective acquisition dates. The Company does not consider these acquisitions to be material to its consolidated statements of comprehensive income and therefore has not included pro forma results.

Effective July 11, 2021, EMT was absorbed into the Company by way of “short-form” merger pursuant to New York and Delaware law, which did not require a vote of the Company’s shareholders.
