Note 3. Acquisitions

LSI Acquisition

On December 15, 2025, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Luminar Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”) and Luminar Semiconductor, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“LSI”), pursuant to which, the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of LSI from the Seller (the “Transaction”). The Transaction was completed on February 2, 2026 (the “LSI Closing Date”).  LSI is engaged primarily in the design, development, manufacturing, packaging, and development services of photonic components and sub-systems (including semiconductor lasers and photodetectors), application-specific integrated circuits, and pixel-based sensors. LSI’s revenue is derived from customers located in the United States and international markets.

The purchase price was $110.0 million in cash, subject to a dollar-for-dollar adjustment to the extent that the working capital at closing was greater or less than the target working capital of $8.1 million. The consideration paid by the Company at closing consisted of approximately $97.5 million in cash, along with $11.0 million placed with an escrow agent at signing. The escrow will remain in place for twelve months following the LSI Closing Date to cover certain limited indemnification obligations of the Seller.

The fair value of consideration transferred is below (in thousands):

The acquisition is accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations “ASC 805”). This method requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company allocated the purchase price to identifiable assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The fair value of the consideration transferred and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was determined by the Company and in doing so management engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist with the measurement of the fair value of identifiable intangible assets. The estimated fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on management’s best estimates. The table below represents the preliminary purchase price allocation for LSI based on estimates, assumptions, valuations and other analyses as of the Closing Date, that have not been finalized in order to make a definitive allocation. Accordingly, the adjustments to allocate the purchase price will remain preliminary until management finalizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair value of intangible assets was based upon an independent appraiser utilizing the cost, income or market approach. Operating lease asset and operating lease liability were valued based upon the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined using the multi-period excess earnings income approach or cost approach. The fair value of trade names and developed technology was determined using the relief-from-royalty method. The fair value of all other assets and liabilities approximated the carrying values at acquisition date. The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and therefore, calculation of goodwill, are dependent upon certain valuation and other studies that have not yet been completed and could differ materially from the amounts presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The goodwill recorded from this acquisition represents business benefits the Company anticipates from the acquired workforce and expectations for expanded sales opportunities to foster further business growth. The goodwill associated with the acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.

The preliminary purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of LSI based on their estimated fair values, with any excess purchase consideration allocated to goodwill as follows (in thousands):

The recorded intangibles include developed technology, customer relationships and trade name and are being amortized using the straight-line method over the useful lives of five to seven years.

From the acquisition date through March 31, 2026, LSI contributed revenue of $3.5 million and operating loss of $2.5 million.

NuCrypt Acquisition

The Company completed its acquisition of NuCrypt, LLC (“NuCrypt”), a quantum communications technology company, on March 4, 2026. The acquisition helps establish quantum communications as an important commercialization vertical within QCi’s broader quantum technology strategy. By integrating NuCrypt’s suite of quantum communications systems and products, QCi expects to advance its technology roadmap while extending its portfolio of quantum communications and quantum photonics solutions.

The purchase price was $2.5 million in cash, subject to a working capital adjustment at closing, and 250,000 shares of QCi’s common stock. The equity consideration is valued at the fair value as of the acquisition date and will be issued equally in shares of common stock on the first, second and third anniversaries of the acquisition. The shares are reserved out of the Company’s authorized but unissued shares.
