INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

 

 

To the Board of Directors
Custom Biogenic Systems, Inc.
Bruce Township, Michigan

 

 

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Custom Biogenic Systems, Inc., which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related statements of stockholder’s equity, operations, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud of error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluation the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2018 and 2017

 

 

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following is a summary of certain accounting policies followed in the preparation of these financial statements. The policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Company Operations

 

Custom Biogenic Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is engaged in the manufacture and sale of cryogenic freezing and long-term storage products mostly within the healthcare and biomedical industries to customers around the world, with majority of sales shipped to North America and Europe.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company, from time to time during the years covered by these financial statements, may have bank balances in excess of its insured limits. Management has deemed this as a normal business risk.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company carries its accounts receivable at their invoiced amounts. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, when deemed necessary, based on the history of past write-offs and collections and current credit conditions. The Company will place customer accounts on hold if payments violate terms of agreement. At December 31, 2018 and 2017 management determined that no allowance was deemed necessary. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for its accounts receivable. The Company does not charge interest on past due accounts receivable.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Inventory Valuation

 

Inventories are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. General and administrative expenses are not inventoried, but are charged to expense when purchased. Provisions are recorded to reduce inventory for obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on assumptions about future demand and marketability of products, inventory levels and turns and product spoilage. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had an inventory reserve in the amount of $170,000 and $160,000, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Management capitalizes expenditures for property and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses. Property and equipment are carried at cost. Adjustments of the asset and the related accumulated depreciation and amortization accounts are made for property and equipment retirements and disposals, with the resulting gain or loss included in the statements of operations.

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets at acquisition. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the assets’ useful lives or the term of the lease.

 

Depreciation and amortization for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $454,677 and $394,930, respectively.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Sales are recorded when the products are shipped to customers. Provision for discounts and rebates to customers and other adjustments are provided for in the same period as the related sales.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

The Company records the amount of shipping and handling costs billed of customers as revenue. The cost incurred for shipping and handling is included in cost of sales.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion expense for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $236,047 and $396,334, respectively.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Product Warranty

 

The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based on both current and historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. The majority of the Company’s products carry a warranty ranging from ninety days to five years. The Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability annually and adjusts the amount as necessary. The warranty liability is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet. Warranty expenses are recorded in cost of sales. See Note 13 for additional disclosure.

 

Sales and Use Taxes

 

The Company records sales net of sales and use taxes.

 

Income Taxes

 

Custom Biogenic Systems, Inc. has elected to be treated as a Subchapter S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions, the Company generally does not pay federal corporate income taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the stockholder is liable for individual federal and state income taxes on the Company’s taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state corporate income taxes has been reflected in the financial statements.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

Under alternatives available to private companies, the Company has elected not to evaluate any related parties under common control to determine if any such entities are variable interest entities that might be required to be consolidated in the financial statements of the Company.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company has performed a review of events subsequent to the balance sheet date through January 24, 2020, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

NOTE 2 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Notes Payable

 

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company was indebted to its sole shareholder in the amount of $272,692 and $363,066, respectively. The note is unsecured, non-interest bearing, is classified as short-term on the balance sheet, and is due on demand. See Note 7 for a schedule of minimum long-term debt payments.

At December 31, 2017, the Company was indebted to related parties in the amount of $14,119. The note was unsecured and was classified as short-term on the balance sheet. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the note was paid in full.

 

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company was indebted to a related party through common ownership in the amount of $139,174 and $99,274, respectively. The note is unsecured, non-interest bearing, is classified as short-term on the balance, and is due on demand. See Note 7 for a schedule of minimum long-term debt payments.

 

Lease Agreement

 

The Company leases its operating facilities from a related party on a month-to-month basis. The lease calls for monthly payments of $10,000 and total rental expense related to the lease during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $107,910 and $54,000, respectively.

 

Guarantee

 

The Company guarantees the debt of a related party through common ownership, which is secured by real estate owned by a related party. In the event of default by the related party, the Company could be obligated to repay the full amount outstanding. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the outstanding balance is $863,136 and $901,530, respectively. Management anticipates the related party will be able to meet their debt obligation; therefore, no accrual has been made on the financial statements at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company, from time to time during the periods covered by these financial statements, may have bank balances in excess of its insured limits. Management has deemed this as a normal business risk.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company carries its accounts receivable at their invoiced amounts. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, when deemed necessary, based on the history of past write-offs and collections and current credit conditions. The Company will place customer accounts on hold if payments violate terms of agreement. At September 30, 2019 and 2018, management determined no allowance was deemed necessary. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for its accounts receivable. The Company does not charge interest on past due accounts receivable.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Inventory Valuation

 

Inventories are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. General and administrative expenses are not inventoried, but are charged to expense when purchased. Provisions are recorded to reduce inventory for obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on assumptions about future demand and marketability of products, inventory levels and turns and product spoilage. As of September 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had an inventory reserve in the amount of $210,000 and $140,000, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Management capitalizes expenditures for property and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses. Property and equipment are carried at cost. Adjustments of the asset and the related accumulated depreciation and amortization accounts are made for property and equipment retirements and disposals, with the resulting gain or loss included in the statements of operations.

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets at acquisition. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the assets’ useful lives or the term of the lease.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

 

 

1.

Description of the Transaction

 

As previously disclosed, on November 12, 2019, BioLife Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) acquired (the “Acquisition”) substantially all of the assets of Custom Biogenic Systems, Inc. (“CBS”). CBS, a privately held company with operations located near Detroit, is a global leader in the design and manufacture of state-of-the-art liquid nitrogen laboratory freezers and cryogenic equipment. CBS also offers a related cloud-based monitoring system that continuously assesses biologic sample storage conditions and alerts equipment owners if a fault condition occurs.

 

CBS founder, sole shareholder and CEO John Brothers received $11 million in cash and $4 million of BioLife common stock in consideration for the asset sale. Brothers, now Vice President, Advanced Freezer Technologies at BioLife, may earn up to an additional $15 million in cash or stock over the next five years, based on exceeding certain annual new product revenue goals.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements combine the historical consolidated financial statements of Biolife and those of CBS after giving effect to the Acquisition, using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, “Business Combinations”, and applying the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 combine BioLife’s operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, after giving effect to the unaudited pro forma operating results of our April 1, 2019 Astero acquisition for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the unaudited pro forma operating results of our August 7, 2019 SAVSU acquisition prior to our acquisition date (see our Form 8-K/A filed October 23, 2019), with the operating results of CBS for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the 12 months ended December 31, 2018 combine BioLife’s operating results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, which include and the unaudited pro forma to operating results of Astero and SAVSU for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, with the operating results of CBS and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.  The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheets combine BioLife’s balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 with the balance sheet of CBS as of September 30, 2019.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and balance sheets give effect to the Acquisition as if such acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the year. The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the business combination, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the business combination. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information herein should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the related notes thereto of BioLife which are presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved if the Acquisition had been consummated as of the beginning of the period presented, nor are they necessarily indicative of the future operating results of the combined company. No effect has been given in these pro forma financial statements for synergistic benefits that may be realized through the combination or costs that may be incurred in integrating operations.

Estimated consideration and preliminary purchase price allocation

 

BioLife accounted for the Acquisition as the purchase of a business under U.S. GAAP. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets of CBS will be recorded as of the acquisition date, at their fair values, and consolidated with BioLife. The preliminary fair value of the net tangible assets acquired is $5.5 million, the preliminary fair value of the identifiable intangibles is $10.4 million, and the preliminary residual goodwill is $3.6 million. The fair value estimates required critical estimates, including, but not limited to, future expected cash flows, revenue and expense projections, discount rates, revenue volatility, and royalty rates. BioLife believes these estimates to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

 

 

 

 

Total consideration transferred (in thousands):

 

Cash consideration

  $ 11,000  

Stock consideration

Total consideration transferred

  $ 15,890  

 

Transaction costs related to the acquisition are expensed as incurred and are not included in the calculation of consideration transferred.

 

The table below represents the estimated preliminary purchase price allocation to the net assets acquired based on their estimated fair values, as well as the associated estimated useful lives of the acquired intangible assets (amounts in thousands). Such amounts were estimated using the most recent financial statements from CBS as of September 30, 2019.

Customer relationships

  $ 560       6  

Tradenames

    800       6  

Acquired technologies

    5,430       9  

Total identifiable intangible assets

  $ 6,790          

 

Fair value measurement methodologies used to calculate the value of any asset can be broadly classified into one of three approaches, referred to as the cost, market and income approaches. In any fair value measurement analysis, all three approaches must be considered, and the approach or approaches deemed most relevant will then be selected for use in the fair value measurement of that asset. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets was determined primarily using variations of the “income approach,” which is based on the present value of the future after-tax cash flows attributable to each identifiable intangible asset. The fair value of inventories was determined using both the “cost approach” and the “market approach” and the fair value of property, plant and equipment was determined using the “market approach”. 

 

Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in the development of intangible asset fair values, from the perspective of a market participant, include, but are not limited to (i) the amount and timing of projected future cash flows (including revenue and expenses), (ii) the discount rate selected to measure the risks inherent in the future cash flows, (iii) the assessment of the asset’s life cycle, and (iv) the competitive trends impacting the asset.

 

These preliminary estimates of fair value and estimated useful lives may be different from the amounts included in the final acquisition accounting, and the difference could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

Pro Forma Adjustments

 

This note should be read in conjunction with Notes 1 and 2. Adjustments included in the pro forma adjustments column of the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet include the following, as indicated in the “Notes” column thereto: 

 

(a)

An adjustment to cash of $11.0 million for the estimated non-contingent cash portion of the transaction price, include $450,000 in escrow less the cash not purchased per the asset purchase agreement

(b)

The adjustment represents the estimated step-up of CBS inventory by $500,000 from carrying value less an inventory reserve of $365,000. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change. The step-up in inventory will increase cost of sales as inventory is sold. The increase is not reflected in the pro forma condensed combined statements of operation because it does not have a continuing impact.

(c)

The adjustment represents the estimated fair market value of CBS fixed assets by $371,000 from historical cost basis. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change and will be depreciated over the remaining useful life of the assets.

(d)

Reflects the preliminary fair value estimate of identifiable intangible assets to be acquired by BioLife of $6.8 million, with a continuing annual amortization impact of $830,000. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change. The identifiable intangible assets include developed technology, customer relationships, and trade names. The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets is determined primarily using the “income approach,” which requires a forecast of all the expected future cash flows.

(e)

Reflects the adjustments to record goodwill related to the transaction.

(f)

No debt or bank payables was assumed under the asset purchase agreement. The associated interest expense was eliminated in the pro forma adjustments due to the debt no longer being outstanding.

(g)

Represents fair value of contingent consideration. We assessed the payoff structure of our contingent consideration and determined the payoff was nonlinear and since it is related to revenue, carried non-diversifiable risk. In addition, due to the cap, the earnout payoff structure is path dependent and therefore a Monte Carlo simulation was appropriate. The Monte Carlo model requires assumptions including volatility, credit risk, and time value discount rates. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change.

(h)

Represents the fair value of stock of the transaction price.

(i)

Represents the elimination of historical equity of CBS.

(j)

Represents salary increase of $124,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and salary increase of $93,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 related to one key executive retained from CBS.

(k)

Represents the elimination of acquisition costs as these expenses will not have a continuing impact.
