| Aegis Contract and Related Asset Acquisition | Aegis Contract and Related Asset Acquisition On March 15, 2023, we entered into an agreement ("Agreement") with Aegis Energy Services, LLC (“Aegis”) pursuant to which Aegis agreed to assign to us and we agreed to assume certain Aegis maintenance agreements, we agreed to purchase certain assets from Aegis, and related matters (“Acquisition”). On April 1, 2023, the Acquisition closed. Under the Agreement, we agreed to acquire from Aegis and assume Aegis’ rights and obligations arising on or after April 1, 2023, under maintenance agreements pursuant to which Aegis provided maintenance services to third parties for approximately 200 cogeneration systems and we agreed to acquire from Aegis certain vehicles and inventory used by Aegis in connection with the performance of its maintenance services. At closing, we acquired eight (8) Aegis vehicles for consideration consisting of $170,000 in cash. Also, we issued credits against outstanding accounts receivable due from Aegis in the amount of $300,000 for the acquisition of inventory that Aegis used to provide maintenance services. At closing, we hired eight (8) Aegis employees who, following the closing, have agreed to continue to provide maintenance services relating to the cogeneration systems covered by the maintenance agreements assumed pursuant to the Agreement. Following the closing and for a period of up to seven (7) years, we have agreed to pay Aegis a percentage of the revenue collected for maintenance services provided pursuant to the maintenance agreements acquired from Aegis. Further, prior to December 31, 2023, we have the right to acquire and assume additional Aegis’ maintenance agreements for cogeneration systems on substantially similar terms and conditions. The Agreement contained certain indemnification provisions and agreements on the part of Aegis and for each party to cooperate with each other and provide certain transitional assistance. We acquired the Aegis maintenance agreements to expand our Service portfolio and to benefit from the long-term contract revenue stream generated by these agreements.
We have determined that the assignment and assumption of the Aegis maintenance agreements, in combination with the related asset acquisition and the retention of the former Aegis employees, constitutes a business and should be accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method. As of the acquisition date, we recognized, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, at fair value.
We have included the financial results of the Aegis maintenance agreements in our consolidated financial statements from April 1, 2023, the closing or acquisition date.
The following table summarizes the consideration paid for the Aegis acquisition and the fair value of assets acquired and contract-related liabilities assumed as the acquisition date:
The amounts recognized for inventory, identifiable intangible assets, contingent consideration and deferred maintenance reserves are provisional pending completion of the necessary valuations and analysis. ASC 805 establishes a measurement period to provide companies with a reasonable amount of time to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure various items in a business combination and cannot extend beyond one year from the acquisition date.
The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using the income approach. The excess cash flow was discounted to present value using an appropriate rate of return to estimate the market value of the customer identifiable intangible asset and the risks associated with the future revenue forecasts due to potential changes in customer energy requirements or changes in the economic viability of these CHP sites which depend on the spread between natural gas fuel and electricity prices, all of which are not within our control. Key assumptions to value the customer identifiable intangible asset included a discount rate of 15%, anticipated existing contract run out and forecasted revenue.
On the date of acquisition, the fair value of the contingent consideration and the deferred maintenance reserve were calculated using a weighted average cost of capital of 12%, discounting the future cash flows to present value and are subsequently remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until the contingencies are resolved.
The contingent consideration is payable within forty-five (45) days following the end of each calendar quarter through the earlier of the expiration or termination of the relevant maintenance agreements, or the seventh (7th) anniversary of the acquisition date. The consideration is equal to the product of the revenues collected in a calendar quarter multiplied by an applicable percentage. The agreement stipulates quarterly aggregate revenue targets and an applicable percentage, and provides for a higher applicable percentage if revenues exceed the target revenues. The applicable percentage ranges from 5% to 10% over the agreement term. The deferred maintenance reserve represents costs, which are expected to be incurred over a three-year period from the date of acquisition, to repair customer equipment that had not been properly maintained prior to our acquisition of the maintenance service agreements.
Revenues and gross profit since the acquisition date were $628,813 and $411,106, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and are included in our Services segment.
The purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed and recognized at their fair value based on widely accepted valuation techniques in accordance with ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement," as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating fair value requires the use of significant assumptions and estimates of future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is primarily attributable to the going concern element of the Aegis business, including its assembled workforce and the long-term nature of the customer maintenance agreements, as well as anticipated cost synergies due primarily to the elimination of administrative overhead. Goodwill resulting from the Aegis acquisition is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Acquisition-related costs which consisted on recurring internal resources were deminimus and such costs were expensed as incurred (ASC805-50-30-1).
