NOTE 13 – ACQUISTION

 

On May 18, 2022, ENG Calvert Holdings Ltd. (the “Purchaser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the acquisition of Calvert Group Belgium NV (“Calvert”), a business that licenses small-scale gas to liquids (“GTL”) technology for flare gas and stranded gas applications for specific territories including the Middle East and North Africa. The Company expects to utilize Calvert’s basic designs incorporating the GTL technology into small scale GTL plants to be manufactured by the Company in the United States and subsequently shipped internationally.

 

Pursuant to the accounting guidance in ASC 805, we determined that the acquisition of Calvert did not meet the criteria necessary to constitute a business combination and was accounted for as an asset acquisition which occurs when substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identified assets. The determination was based on the gross fair value of the acquisition being concentrated in the license agreement acquired.

 

The consideration transferred on the acquisition date included $0.8 million cash, net of cash acquired, and $0.5 million in common stock issued. In addition, we may pay up to approximately $1.4 million in cash and issue approximately $0.6 million in common stock if certain benchmarks are achieved. The Company capitalized $0.1 million in costs associated with the transaction.
