Note 12 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS |
Electro-Fish Media Inc.
On January 19, 2018, iCoreConnect Inc. acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Electro Fish Media Inc., a Texas corporation, in exchange for 3,400,000 shares of our Common Stock (at an agreed upon price of $0.50 per share).
Pursuant to the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, the Company performed a review of the essential elements of inputs, activities and outputs of the acquisition. The Company determined that the purchase of the Electro-Fish Media stock did not qualify as a business combination. The Company has recorded the $1,700,000 purchase price as an other non-operating expense in the accompanying Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018.
ClariCare Inc.
On April 30, 2019 iCoreConnect Inc., acquired technology and certain other assets of ClariCare Inc., an Indiana corporation, in exchange for (i) $50,000 in cash, (ii) 2,301,007 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment, and (iii) the assumption of certain specified liabilities including a company credit card balance not to exceed $23,000, all upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2019 (the “ClariCare Asset Purchase Agreement”) which was attached as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on May 2, 2019 with the SEC. The Company is required to issue additional shares on September 30, 2020 if the stock price is less than $1.49 per share as of that date. ClariCare had created cloud-based dental analytics and practice management software to provide dentists and providers to the dental market modern tools to run their practices more efficiently and effectively and which are a complement to our current dental market product offering.
The Company accounted for the acquisition of the ClariCare business and assets as an asset acquisition under ASC 805, which provides guidance for asset acquisitions. Under the guidance, if substantially all of the acquisition is made up of one asset or similar assets, then the acquisition is an asset acquisition. The Company believes the assets acquired from ClariCare are similar and consider them all to be acquired technology (See Note 6). Further, the Company does not believe the acquired technology constitutes a business as defined under ASC 805. |
