NOTE 4—ACQUISITIONS

Digiplex

On August 15, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Digital Cinema Destination, Corp. (“Digiplex”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Digiplex and Badlands Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the acquisition Digiplex is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Digiplex supports the Company’s growth strategy. Digiplex operated 21 theatres and 206 screens in 8 U.S. states. Upon completion of the merger, each issued and outstanding share of Digiplex Class A common stock and Class B common stock, except for any shares owned by the Company, Digiplex or any of their respective subsidiaries, was converted into the right to receive 0.1765 shares of the Company’s common stock, referred to as the “exchange ratio,” or approximately 1.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the aggregate. In addition to the shares issued, the Company also assumed a note payable of $9,099, which the Company paid subsequent to closing.

In December 2012, Digiplex, together with Start Media LLC (“Start Media”), formed a joint venture, Start Media Digiplex, LLC (“JV”) to acquire theatre assets. As of August 15, 2014, Digiplex owned 34% of the equity of the joint venture. On August 15, 2014, in conjunction with the acquisition, the Company paid cash of $10,978 to Start Media for its 66% interest in the joint venture. Also in connection with the acquisition, the Company paid cash of $181 in lieu of 30,000 shares of Digiplex common stock held in escrow for the former owners of two Digiplex theatres.

Prior to the acquisition, Digiplex had entered into agreements to acquire an additional four theatres and 33 screens (“pipeline theatres”). The Company completed its acquisition of one pipeline theatre and ten screens on August 22, 2014 and two pipeline theatres and 18 screens on September 26, 2014. Total cash consideration paid for the pipeline theatres was approximately $5,400 and resulted in an increase to Goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2014 of approximately $3,250. The transaction for one pipeline theatre was terminated subsequent to the acquisition. The acquisition of the three pipeline theatres was not significant individually or in the aggregate to the Company’s results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price for Digiplex:


Number of shares of Digiplex common stock outstanding at August 15, 2014		7,832
Exchange ratio		0.1765

Cash settlement of Start Media joint venture		10,978
Cash settlement of shares held in escrow		181

Total preliminary estimated acquisition consideration	$	58,433

The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation for Digiplex based on the fair value of net assets acquired at the acquisition date:

Net assets acquired		16,478

Goodwill	$	41,526

The purchase price allocation is preliminary and certain items are subject to change, including the fair value of property and equipment and working capital assets and liabilities. The primary areas of the preliminary valuation that are not yet finalized relate to the fair value of property and equipment. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist it in determining the fair values during the measurement period.

Management believes that the fair value of current assets and current liabilities acquired approximate their net book value at the acquisition date. The goodwill recognized of $41,526 is attributable primarily to expected synergies of achieving cost reductions and eliminating redundant administrative functions. The majority of the goodwill is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. During the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company continued to estimate the net operating losses, and the resulting deferred tax assets, recognized in connection with the Digiplex acquisition. As a result, the Company increased the deferred tax assets recognized in connection with the acquisition and decreased goodwill by $3,212. Identifiable intangible assets recognized of $2,190 represent favorable lease obligations and will be amortized to theatre occupancy costs over the respective lease term. The Company also recognized unfavorable lease obligations of $5,980. The weighted-average useful life of the favorable lease obligations, prior to the exercise of any extension or renewals associated with the underlying leases is 6.1 years.

The results of Digiplex’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Revenue and net loss of Digiplex included in the Company’s operating results for the year ended December 31, 2014 from the acquisition date were $16,728 and ($197), respectively. Acquisition costs related to professional fees incurred as a result of the Digiplex acquisition, during the year ended December 31, 2014 were approximately $3,477 and were expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The majority of these expenses are not deductible for income tax purposes.

Pro Forma Results of Operations (Unaudited)

The following selected comparative unaudited pro forma results of operations information for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 assumes the Digiplex acquisition occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2013, and reflects the full results of operations for the periods presented. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to indicate the results of operations which would actually have occurred had the combination been in effect on the dates indicated, or which may occur in the future. These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Digiplex to reflect the fair value adjustments to property and equipment and financing obligations. These fair values also represent Level 3 measures within the fair value hierarchy prescribed by ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements.

In consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid $30,608 in cash and the assumption of lease-related financing obligations of approximately $19,101. The purchase price was paid using cash on hand.

The fair value of current assets and current liabilities acquired approximate their net book value at the acquisition date.

In addition, the Company incurred contingent liabilities associated with the purchase. The fair value of this contingent consideration as of the acquisition date, which represents the maximum amount of future reimbursement, was $750. The fair value of the contingent consideration and the resulting increase to Goodwill were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820.
