Item 1.01
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On November 4, 2019, RF Industries, Ltd.
(the “Company”), DRC Technologies, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation (“DRC”), and the stockholders of DRC,
entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company purchased 100% of
the issued and outstanding shares of Schroff Technologies International, Inc. (“Schrofftech”) from DRC (the “Sale”).
Based in Rhode Island, Schrofftech serves
the telecom and cable markets with energy efficient cooling / temperature control and filtration
systems for telecom shelters, outdoor enclosures and battery /power rooms. Schrofftech also retrofits existing communications equipment
infrastructure for capacity upgrades and thermal efficiencies resulting in capital and energy cost savings. Schrofftech’s
unaudited net sales through the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $5.8 million.
The purchase of Schrofftech closed concurrently
with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. At the closing, the Company paid an aggregate of $4,000,000 in cash, and DRC sold,
conveyed, transferred and delivered all of the issued and outstanding shares of Schrofftech to the Company. Of the $4,000,000 cash
purchase price, $900,000 has been set aside in two separate escrow accounts for a period of one year and two years, respectively,
as security for indemnification claims that may arise. In addition to the cash paid at the closing, the Company may have to pay
up to an additional $2,400,000 as an earn-out payment if Schrofftech achieves certain adjusted EBITDA targets during the two-year
period following the closing.
The preceding summary does not purport to
be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1, and
which is incorporated herein by reference.
