 Company signed a Deed of ABC, (i) pursuant to which all of the assets of Nogin were transferred to an assignee for the benefit of Nogin’s creditors, and (ii) which provides the assignee the right to, among other things, sell or dispose of such assets and settle all claims against Nogin. The Company will no longer control or own the assets of Nogin, and the results of operations were deconsolidated on March 31, 2025 and are no longer reported in the Company’s financial statements after March 31, 2025. Management does not expect any recovery of the Company’s investment in Nogin. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, certain of Nogin’s creditors filed an involuntary petition for relief under chapter 7 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New York and an order for relief was entered to move the ABC to a chapter 7 liquidation.Valuation Assumptions for Purchase Price AllocationOur valuation assumptions used to value the acquired assets and assumed liabilities require significant estimates, especially with respect to intangible assets, inventories, property and equipment, and deferred income taxes. In determining the fair value of intangible assets acquired, the Company must make assumptions about the future performance of the acquired businesses, including among other things, the forecasted revenue growth attributable to the asset groups and projected operating expenses and other benefits expected to be achieved by combining the businesses acquired with the Company. The intangible assets acquired are primarily comprised of customer relationships, trademarks, and developed technology. The Company utilized widely accepted income-based, market-based, and cost-based valuation approaches to perform the preliminary purchase price allocations. The estimated fair value of the customer relationships is determined using the multi-period excess earnings method and the estimated fair value of trademarks and developed technology are determined using the relief from royalty method. Both methods require forward looking estimates that are discounted to determine the fair value of the intangible assets using a risk-adjusted discount rate that is reflective of the level of risk associated with future estimates associated with the asset group that could be affected by future economic and market conditions.
