PopReach Corporation (TSXV: POPR) announced on Monday that it has signed a definitive agreement with 2810735 Ontario Inc., known as Federated Foundry, to settle the terms and conditions of the proposed business combination. The transaction is reported to be for consideration of $160 million.
Under the terms of the agreement, the mobile game developer will be acquiring all issued and outstanding shares of Federated Foundry on a fully diluted basis. The transaction is expected to be an amalgamation of PopReach, Federated Foundry, and a new PopReach subsidiary. The company will be fulfilling the acquisition price by issuing PopReach common shares to the resulting amalgamated firm at $0.80 per share, a 32.9% premium on its 20-day average trading price.
Further, the transaction is subject to adjustments for assumed debt, working capital, and other customary terms and conditions set out in the agreement. Hence, the acquisition price will be further subtracted by assumed debt and net working capital less than $5 million.
