Procurement of Technology Solutions

On June 21, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with a privately held company to acquire the technology solutions being developed by this privately held company for a purchase price of $18.0 million, including an advance of $3.0 million. The Company closed the transaction and paid the remaining $15.0 million in February 2022. This proprietary technology asset has been integrated into the Envestnet Data & Analytics segment and is being amortized over an estimated useful life of five years. In addition, the agreement includes an earn-out payment of $10.0 million based upon the achievement of certain target metrics within five years after the date of the Company’s launch of the technology solutions.
