Acquisition of Omni

On January 25, 2024, (the “Closing”) the Company completed the acquisition of Omni Newco, LLC (the “Omni Acquisition”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 10, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement,” and as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of January 22, 2024, the “Amended Merger Agreement”). Omni, headquartered in Dallas, Texas, is an asset-light, high-touch logistics and supply chain management company with customer relationships in high-growth end markets. Omni delivers domestic and international freight forwarding, fulfillment services, customs brokerage, distribution, and value-added services for time-sensitive freight to U.S.-based customers operating both domestically and internationally. Pursuant to the Amended Merger Agreement, through a series of transactions involving the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, with the other transactions contemplated by the Amended Merger Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements referred to therein, the “Transactions”), the Company acquired Omni for a combination of (a) $1,643,502 in cash (which includes pre-acquisition Omni costs of approximately $80 million and the extinguishment of $1,543,003 in Omni’s indebtedness) and (b) Equity Consideration issued at Closing consisting of: (i) 700 shares of the Company’s common stock, (ii) 4,435 Opco Class B Units (as defined below) and corresponding fractional Company Series B Preferred Units (as defined below) which together, were at Closing exchangeable into 4,435 shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder, (iii) 1,210 fractional Company Series C Preferred Units (as defined below), and (iv) 7,670 units of Opco Series C-2 Preferred Units.

Upon approval of the Company’s shareholders at the 2024 Annual Shareholders Meeting held on June 3, 2024 (the “Conversion Approval”), the 1,210 Company Series C Preferred Units were converted into 1,210 shares of the Company’s common stock, and 7,670 Opco Series C-2 Preferred Units were converted to 7,760 Opco Class B Units and the same corresponding number of Company Series B Preferred Units, resulting in 30.5% economic interest in Opco. The fair value of the Equity Consideration was determined based on the price of Company’s common stock at the acquisition date as adjusted for an illiquidity discount. Please refer to the sections in Note 5, Shareholders' equity, for descriptions of the Company Series B Preferred Stock, Company Series C Preferred Stock, Opco Class B Units, and Opco Series C-2 Preferred Units.

Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, the Company completed a restructuring to create an umbrella partnership C corporation (as described earlier), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company contributed all of its operating assets, as well as the assets and liabilities acquired in the Omni Acquisition, to Opco. The related purchase accounting for the Omni Acquisition was included in Opco and the noncontrolling interest related to Opco Class B Units and Opco Series C-2 Preferred Units (totaling a 30.5% economic interest in Opco) was measured and recognized based on the fair market value of net assets acquired in the Omni Acquisition and the historical carrying value of the Company’s operating assets so contributed. Additionally, pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined below), the Company recorded contingent consideration associated with potential payments to be made for the tax benefits related to the 700 shares of Company common stock issued at the Closing, and such contingent consideration was measured at fair value based on the expected future tax benefit payments to be made to certain Omni Holders (as defined earlier).

The Omni Acquisition enables the Company to provide a differentiated service offering and expanded geographic footprint to customers. In addition, the combination of these complementary businesses allows the Company to deliver integrated global supply chain solutions for customers’ most service-sensitive logistics needs. Goodwill, recognized related to the purchase, represents planned operational synergies, expanded geographic reach of our services, and strategic market positioning. The results of Omni have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of and from the date of acquisition. The associated goodwill has been included in the Omni reportable segment and is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Details of consideration paid are included in the Purchase Price Allocation table within this footnote.
