United Agent Services Corp
In August 2022, we acquired certain assets and liabilities of United Agency Services Corp, or UA Services, a company providing registered agent services and corporate compliance solutions for $3.5 million, of which $2.6 million was paid in cash on the acquisition date and up to $1.0 million will be paid in cash within twelve months, based upon the achievement of certain earnout metrics. Furthermore, up to $0.4 million is contingent on certain service conditions being met. This amount has been excluded from the purchase consideration and will be recorded as future compensation expense.
The acquisition was completed in order to build a more durable registered agency platform and has been accounted for as a business combination. The preliminary purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill of $3.3 million arising from the acquisition consisted largely of the assembled workforce and synergies expected from combining our operations. The acquired goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. There were no intangible assets acquired in connection with this acquisition. Acquisition costs related to this transaction of approximately $0.4 million were expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The revenue and earnings of the acquired business have been included in our results of operations since the acquisition date and are not material to the consolidated financial results. Pro forma revenues and results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented as the impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is immaterial.
The purchase accounting for this acquisition remains incomplete with respect to acquired contingent liabilities as management continues to gather and evaluate information about circumstances that existed as of the acquisition
date. Measurement period adjustments will be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined within 12 months from the acquisition date.
Earth Class Mail, Inc.
In November 2021, we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Earth Class Mail, Inc., or Earth Class Mail, a company that provides virtual mailbox solutions for small businesses, in line with our strategy to scale our existing business through building in-house adjacencies. The total cash paid was $61.2 million, inclusive of a working capital adjustment of $0.3 million. Intangible assets acquired from Earth Class Mail included customer relationships of $10.6 million, developed technology of $5.4 million and trade names of $0.2 million, which are being amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method. Goodwill of $48.6 million arising from the acquisition consisted largely of the assembled workforce and synergies expected from combining Earth Class Mail into our operations.
There were no material measurement period adjustments recorded to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the period and the purchase price is considered final.
