Acquisition of Kontora Family Office GmbH
On April 30, 2025 (the “Kontora Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired all of the outstanding ownership interests of Kontora Family Office GmbH (“Kontora”) (the “Kontora Acquisition”). Kontora is a multi-family office and asset management company headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, focused on UHNW families, entrepreneurs and select institutions. This acquisition expanded the Company’s presence in Europe through entry into the key wealth hub of Germany, which represents the third largest UHNW market in the world.
The Kontora Acquisition met the requirements to be considered a business combination under ASC 805. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Kontora reflect the fair market values, affected for preliminary adjustments to reflect the fair market values assigned to assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and results of operations, are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of the Kontora Acquisition Date.
The Kontora Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $15.7 million. Included in the total purchase consideration is contingent consideration of $5.7 million, comprised of the Kontora earn-out liability, for which the Company may be required to make additional cash payments tied to certain revenue streams acquired in the Kontora Acquisition between the Closing Date and December 31, 2035. The contingent consideration was measured at fair value at the Kontora Acquisition Date and recorded within the Earn-out liabilities, at fair value line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. In addition to the contingent consideration, the Company may be required to make additional compensatory payments comprised of a combination of cash and equity at the Company’s option based on Kontora’s adjusted EBITDA. The total purchase consideration is summarized below:

The purchase price allocation is preliminary and subject to change during the measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the Kontora Acquisition Date. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company made a measurement period adjustment to the purchase price allocation, which resulted in a decrease to intangible assets of $0.7 million, an increase to goodwill of $0.4 million, a decrease to deferred tax liability of $0.3 million, an increase to other assets, net of $24.0 thousand and a decrease to the purchase consideration of $10.0 thousand. At this time we do not expect any additional material adjustments to the above allocations. When the valuation is final, changes to the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities could result in adjustments to identified intangibles and goodwill.
With the exception of operating right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities accounted for under ASC 842, Leases, in accordance with ASC 805, the assets and liabilities were recorded at their respective fair values as of April 30, 2025. The Company developed the fair value of intangible assets, which includes trade names, customer relationships, and licenses granted by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority. Various techniques were applied to derive the fair values of the intangible assets including, but not limited to, relief from royalty method, excess earnings method, replacement cost method, and a discounted cash flow approach.
For all other major assets and liabilities acquired, the Company determined that book value approximated fair value. Goodwill is comprised of expected synergies for the combined operations and the assembled workforce acquired in the Kontora Acquisition, which does not qualify as a separately recognized intangible asset.
Below is a summary of the intangible assets acquired in the Kontora Acquisition:
