Kolltan Acquisition

(11)  Kolltan Acquisition

In connection with the Kolltan Acquisition, effective November 29, 2016, the Company issued 18,257,996 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for all of the share and debt interests in Kolltan. The Company also agreed to issue an aggregate of 437,901 shares of its common stock, less tax withholdings, to certain former officers of Kolltan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company issued 91,749 shares of its common stock and at September 30, 2017, the Company’s remaining obligation is to issue 125,123 shares of its common stock, less tax withholdings, related to this severance obligation. In addition, in the event that certain specified preclinical and clinical development milestones related to Kolltan’s development programs and/or Celldex’s development programs and certain commercial milestones related to Kolltan’s drug candidates are achieved, Celldex will be required to pay Kolltan’s stockholders milestone payments of up to $172.5 million, which milestone payments may be made, at Celldex’s sole election, in cash, in shares of Celldex’s common stock or a combination of both, subject to provisions of the Merger Agreement.

The transaction was accounted for as a business combination with Celldex treated as the accounting acquirer. All of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction are recognized at their acquisition-date fair values, while transaction costs associated with the transaction are expensed as incurred.

Purchase Price

The purchase price for Kolltan was based on the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred, which was calculated based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $4.02 per share on November 29, 2016. The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following (in thousands):

Fair value of common stock issued for upfront payment	$	73,397
Fair value of contingent consideration	44,200
Kolltan transaction expenses paid in cash by the Company	3,768
Total consideration transferred	$	121,365

Allocations of Assets and Liabilities

The Company has allocated the consideration transferred for Kolltan to net tangible assets, intangible assets, and goodwill. The difference between the aggregate consideration transferred and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. This goodwill relates to the potential synergies from the Kolltan Acquisition and deferred tax liabilities related to acquired IPR&D intangible assets. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands):

Cash and cash equivalents	$	8,160
Other current and long-term assets	799
Property and equipment, net	2,072
In-process research and development (IPR&D)	61,690
Goodwill	82,011
Deferred tax liabilities, net	(23,393		)
Other assumed liabilities	(9,974		)
Total	$	121,365

The purchase price allocation has been prepared on a preliminary basis and is subject to change as additional information becomes available concerning the fair value and tax basis of the acquired assets and liabilities. Any adjustments to the purchase price allocation will be made as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Pro Forma Financial Information

If the operations of the Company and Kolltan were combined as of January 1, 2016, the unaudited pro forma net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 would have been $35.5 million and $120.4 million, respectively, or $(0.30) and $(1.02) per share, respectively. The unaudited pro forma combined results are not necessarily indicative of the actual results that would have occurred had the acquisition been consummated at that date or of the future operations of the combined entities.
