Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc.
On May 5, 2026, the Company completed the Business Combination contemplated by the Contribution and Exchange Agreement. At the Closing, APLD ChronoScale HoldCo LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of APLD Intermediate HoldCo LLC (the “Contributor”), transferred to the Company all of its right, title and interest in 1.2 shares of common stock of Cloud, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Applied Digital Cloud Corporation, in exchange for 138,217 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company. As a result of the Business Combination, Cloud became a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Following the consummation of the Applied Parent PIPE Investment and the closing of the Business Combination, Applied Parent and Contributor collectively beneficially owned approximately 97% of the outstanding common stock of the Company and the legacy Ekso shareholders owned approximately 3% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Based on the relative voting rights and ownership interests following the Business Combination, Cloud was determined to be the accounting acquirer and the transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition.
Holding Company Transaction
On July 1, 2026, the Company completed the Holding Company Transaction pursuant to which ChronoScale Holdings Corporation became the successor issuer to ChronoScale and the publicly traded parent company, and Applied Digital Cloud Corporation became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of ChronoScale Holdings Corporation and was renamed “ChronoScale Corporation.” All references to “Cloud” following the Holding Company Transaction refer to ChronoScale Corporation.
The aggregate purchase consideration in the Business Combination was $57,623, which was comprised of the following:
Purchase Consideration
Common and preferred shares issued (4,277 shares)
$56,543 
Assumed restricted stock units (82 RSUs)
1,080 
Total purchase consideration$57,623 
The fair value of the common stock, preferred stock, and assumed restricted stock units included in the purchase consideration was estimated based on our $13.22 closing stock price on the Business Combination acquisition date.
In connection with the Business Combination, the Company assumed certain equity awards. The portion of these awards attributable to pre-combination service, valued at $1,080, was included in the total purchase price. The remaining compensation expense for awards requiring post-combination service will be recognized over the respective awards' remaining requisite service period.
The acquisition-related costs were $5,363, and were recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations during the year ended May 31, 2026.
The preliminary fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the Business Combination acquisition date are summarized as follows:
Purchase consideration to be allocated$57,623 
Cash$13,492 
Goodwill54,513 
Current assets held for sale20,192 
Total assets acquired$88,197 
Current portion of debt(3,346)
Accrued liabilities(3,397)
Long-term debt(464)
Warrant liabilities(3,242)
Current liabilities held for sale(5,125)
Total liabilities assumed$(15,574)
Total net assets acquired attributable to ChronoScale Corporation$72,623 
Less: Cash acquired through APLD Parent PIPE Investment (as defined below)$(15,000)
Total net assets acquired attributable to ChronoScale Corporation, net of APLD Parent PIPE Investment$57,623 
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill, none of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill is entirely attributable to the expected synergies and economic benefits associated with the access to public markets resulting from the Business Combination transaction, rather than the Legacy Ekso Business which is classified as held for sale and discontinued operations as of May 31, 2026. There were no changes to goodwill in the period between the Business Combination acquisition date and May 31, 2026.
The acquired assets and assumed liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values, which are subject to change during the measurement period, which is up to one year from the date of acquisition. Assets and liabilities held for sale were recorded at their estimated fair values less costs to sell, as presented in the following table:

The fair value of the assumed debt was determined based on a valuation performed by an independent third-party valuation specialist in connection with the acquisition.
The fair value of acquired intangible assets consists of legacy Ekso's developed technology and trade name. The valuations of the developed technology and trade name were performed by a third-party valuation specialist using the relief-from-royalty method. The following table presents the amounts allocated to the intangible assets identified as of the date of acquisition and their estimated useful lives:
