3. BUSINESS COMBINATION
On April 18, 2023, the Company, Blink Mobility, LLC, a California limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Mobility”), and Mobility Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Mobility (“Merger Sub”), entered into and, after all parties met the closing conditions, consummated the transactions contemplated under an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 18, 2023 (the “Acquisition Agreement”), with Envoy Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Envoy”). Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Envoy, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, and Envoy was the surviving corporation of the merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mobility (the “Acquisition”).
Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, the acquisition consideration was up to $35,500, paid as follows: (i) $6,000 in cash paid upon the closing of the Acquisition Agreement (the “Closing”); (ii) a promissory note of Mobility in the principal amount of $5,000 which bears interest at a rate of 6% per annum and becomes due 12 months from Closing; (iii) a promissory note of Mobility in the principal amount of $2,000 which bears interest at a rate of 6% per annum and becomes due 18 months from Closing; and (iv)(a) in the event of an initial public offering or direct listing of Mobility or Mobility’s successor within 24 months after the Closing (and shares of common stock of the Company are not issued in lieu thereof), $18,500, $21,000 or $22,500 worth of shares of common stock of Mobility or Mobility’s successor, depending on the timing of such offering or listing, (b) in the event there is no initial public offering or direct listing of Mobility or Mobility’s successor within 24 months after the Closing, $21,000 worth of shares of common stock of the Company, or (c) at the Company’s option, a combination of cash and common stock of the Company with an aggregate value of $21,000.
The aggregate purchase price was $30,900, which included working capital deficit of $1,595 and closing date cash of $19. The fair value of the consideration paid in the acquisition consisted of: (a) $6,000 in cash ($3,440 was paid at Closing and $2,560 was paid prior to Closing in the form of a note receivable); (b) $6,782 in aggregate promissory notes; and (c) $18,118 in common stock of Mobility subject to the conditions described above. The payment of shares of common stock of Mobility or Mobility’s successor, if any, will be based on the public offering price per share of such stock in the initial public offering. The payment of shares of common stock of the Company, if any, will be based on the average of the daily-weighted average prices for such stock on each of the 60 days ending on the day prior to issuance thereof. The common stock consideration payable in the amount of $18,118 is included within consideration payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.
The Company engaged a third-party independent valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Envoy. The final determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities will be completed within the one-year measurement period as required by ASC 805. The Company recognized certain measurement period adjustments, as summarized in the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the tables below. Measurement period adjustments are recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined and calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The acquisition will necessitate the use of this measurement period to adequately analyze and assess the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the relevant acquisition date, including intangible assets, accounts receivable and certain fixed assets.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of Envoy:
In connection with the acquisition of Envoy, the Company acquired intangible assets in the form of a trade name, customer relationships, internally developed technology and non-compete agreements.
The Company used the relief from royalty method when determining the fair value of the acquired trade name and internally developed technology. The fair value was determined by applying an estimated royalty rate to revenues, measuring the value the Company would pay in royalties to a market participant if it did not own the trade name and internally developed technology and had to license it from a third party. The trademark was assigned a useful life of 2 years and the internally developed technology was assigned a useful life of 3 years.
When determining fair value of customer relationships, a form of income approach, known as the multi period excess earnings method was used. The fair value was determined by calculating the present value of estimated future operating cash flows generated from the existing customers less costs to realize the revenue. The Company applied a discount rate of 21%, which reflected the nature of the assets as they relate to the risk and uncertainty of the estimated future operating cash flows. Other significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the customer contracts include an assumed income tax rate of 26%. The customer relationships were assigned a useful life of 5.3 years.
The Company used a discounted cash flow model when determining the fair value of the non-compete agreements. Significant assumptions included a discount rate of 21% and an assumed income tax rate of 26%. The non-compete agreements were assigned a useful life of 2 years.
The fair value of working capital accounts were determined to be the carrying values due to the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities.
The fair value of property and equipment was estimated by applying the cost approach. The cost approach uses the replacement or reproduction cost as an indicator of fair value. The assumptions of the cost approach include replacement cost new, projected capital expenditures, and physical deterioration factors including economic useful life, remaining useful life, age, and effective age.
As of September 30, 2023, the estimated fair value of the common stock consideration payable was $18,118. The Company uses a probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach as a valuation technique to determine the fair value of the common stock consideration payable on the acquisition date and at each reporting period. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are the probability outcome percentages that are assigned to each scenario. Significant increases or decreases to either of these inputs in isolation could result in a significantly higher or lower liability with a higher liability capped by the contractual maximum of the common stock consideration liability.

The components of debt free net working capital deficit are as follows:
Goodwill was recorded based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired and the amount is attributable to the reputation of the business acquired, the workforce in place and the synergies to be achieved from this acquisition. Goodwill of $30,118 from the acquisition of Envoy is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the results of operations of Envoy from April 18, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and do not include results of operations for periods prior to April 18, 2023.
