Note 4 – Acquisitions


       In December 2012 the Company purchased all of the outstanding stock of New Dawn for $14,000,000 in cash, and in September 2013 the Company acquired substantially all of the operating assets and liabilities of ISD Corporation for approximately $16,000,000 in cash. Both acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations.


The Company finalized its valuation of ISD which resulted in an allocation of $1,700,000 to goodwill and a reduction of the same amount in its intangible assets. The Company allocated the ISD purchase price to tangible assets ($4,410,000 including cash of $2,546,000; accounts receivable of $1,636,000; fixed assets of $141,000; and prepaid assets of $87,000), identifiable intangible assets (purchased software and customer relationships of $14,975,000 pursuant to the results of a third party valuation) and liabilities ($5,112,000 including accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2,270,000 and deferred maintenance agreements of $2,842,000) based on their fair values with the remaining balance in excess of the net assets allocated to goodwill ($1,700,000).
