5. Business Combinations

Fanatec Acquisition

On September 13, 2024, one of our subsidiaries, Corsair GmbH (“GmbH”) executed an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) to purchase the business (the “Fanatec Business”) of Endor AG (“Endor”), which includes certain assets and all the personnel of Endor, as well as the equity interests of certain of Endor’s subsidiaries. Endor AG is a German public entity that created the leading end-to-end premium Fanatec sim racing product line. The Fanatec sim racing product line, which fully complements our sim racing chassis, gaming PCs, gaming and streaming peripherals, and monitors, will expand our product offerings in these markets.

The Fanatec APA was consummated on September 19, 2024 (the “Fanatec Acquisition Date”) for a cash purchase consideration of approximately $43.7 million, net of $4.5 million of cash acquired.

Prior to the Fanatec acquisition, another of our subsidiaries, Corsair Components Ltd (“CCL”), entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (“Bridge Loan”) in May 2024 and a Debtor-In-Possession Loan Agreement (“DIP Loan”) in September 2024 with Endor to provide short-term financing for Endor's operations in connection with our intent to acquire the Fanatec Business through a German restructuring process. Pursuant to the terms of the APA, the total principal and interest owed by Endor to CCL as of the Fanatec Acquisition Date for the Bridge Loan and DIP Loan of approximately $16.6 million, in aggregate, was set-off against the purchase price, and accordingly, on the Fanatec Acquisition Date, GmbH paid CCL $16.6 million cash to settle the Bridge Loan and DIP Loan (including interest of $0.6 million) on behalf of Endor. GmbH paid the remaining $31.6 million purchase consideration to Endor in cash on the Fanatec Acquisition Date.

Because the Fanatec acquisition met the definition of a business, it has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Fanatec’s results of operations are included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations with effect from September 19, 2024.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Fanatec Acquisition Date. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized consist of income tax and indirect tax considerations and the validation of certain inventory values, accounts payables and accrued liabilities. We will continue to reflect measurement period adjustments to purchase price allocation, if any, in the period in which the adjustments are recognized. Final determination of the fair values may result in adjustments to the values presented in the following table (in thousands):

The fair value of the working capital related items, as well as the fair value of property and equipment approximated their book values at the Fanatec Acquisition Date. The fair value of the inventories was estimated by major category, at an estimate of net realizable value, which we believe approximates the price a market participant could achieve in a current sale. The difference between the fair value of the inventories and the book value recorded on the Fanatec Acquisition Date was $4.7 million, of which we

recognized $0.5 million in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, upon the sale of the acquired inventory.

The goodwill of $2.2 million represents the expansion of our market presence by utilizing Fanatec's strength and brand in the sim racing market. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and is assigned to our Peripherals reporting unit.

The $15.1 million identifiable intangible assets acquired include trade name of $11.3 million and product technology of $3.8 million. The fair values of the identified intangible assets were estimated primarily using the income approach and were based on inputs that are not observable in the market which we consider to be Level 3 inputs. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 6 to 15 years, using the straight-line method of amortization. The identifiable intangible assets acquired are deductible for tax purposes.

The acquisition-related costs incurred in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $1.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, and these amounts are primarily reported within sales and general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

Pro forma information is not included because the effects of the Fanatec Acquisition were not material to our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented.

Drop Acquisition

On July 14, 2023 (the “Drop Acquisition Date”), we completed the acquisition of the assets and business of Massdrop Inc. (“Drop”), including the assumption of trade payables and certain accrued liabilities (the “Drop Acquisition”) for a cash purchase consideration of approximately $14.2 million, net of $0.6 million of cash acquired. On January 29, 2024, in connection with a joint release letter executed between us and Drop's seller, we received a refund of $1.0 million from escrow funds in relation to a purchase price adjustment for net working capital. With this refund, total purchase consideration, net of cash acquired, decreased to $13.2 million.

Drop, a community-based e-commerce company was headquartered in San Francisco, California, and specialized in customized DIY keyboards and keycaps. We expect this acquisition to give Corsair a leading presence in the personalized keyboards market which is one of the fastest growing trends in the gaming peripherals space as well as allow us to offer specialized Corsair and Elgato products to the enthusiast community that Drop is engaged with. Drop’s results of operations are included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations with effect from July 14, 2023.

The fair value of certain working capital related items, including accounts receivable, prepaid and other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as well as the fair value of property and equipment approximated their book values at the Drop Acquisition Date. The fair value of the inventories was estimated by major category, at net realizable value, which we believe approximates the price a market participant could achieve in a current sale. The difference between the fair value of the inventories and the book value recorded on the Drop Acquisition Date was $2.0 million, of which we recognized $0.1 million, $0.5 million and $1.5 million in cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively, upon the sale of the acquired inventory.

The goodwill of $6.0 million represents the expansion of our market presence by utilizing Drop's strength in direct consumer reach as well as the ability to expand the customizable keyboard and keycap market. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and is assigned to our Peripherals reporting unit.

The $9.2 million identifiable intangible assets acquired include developed technology of $5.2 million, trade name of $2.3 million and domain name of $1.7 million. The fair values of the identified intangible assets were estimated primarily using the income approach and were based on inputs that are not observable in the market which we consider to be Level 3 inputs. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 5 to 15 years, using the straight-line method of amortization. The identifiable intangible assets acquired are deductible for tax purposes.

The acquisition-related costs incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were not material.
