5. ACQUISITION

The Company accounted for the acquisition of Arcadian Services using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.

Fair value estimates are based on a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. The judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives and the expected future cash flows and related discount rates, can materiality impact our results of operations. Significant inputs used for the model included the amount of cash flows, the expected period of the cash flows and the discount rates. The finalization of the purchase accounting assessment may result in a change in the fair value of the debt assumed and intangible assets, which may have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position.

On November 13, 2017, the Company acquired Arcadian Services. The purchase price, including the value of the indebtedness and payables of Arcadian Services, is $1,339,600 based upon a deemed acquisition of all of the assets and liabilities of Arcadian Services, including the equity interests in Arcadian Services. The aggregate purchase price consists of (i) initial investment in Arcadian of $195,900 (ii) $317,000 of forgiveness of a note receivable with the primary member of Arcadian (iii) assumption by Arcadian Services of subordinated debt (“Arcadian Note”) with a fair value of $555,000, plus accrued interest of $96,700 (iv) $175,000 payment for the redemption and cancellation of two warrants to purchase equity interests in Arcadian Services. The Arcadian Note bears interest at an annual rate of 8% and matures on September 30, 2021.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase consideration and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed for the acquisition of Arcadian Services made by the Company:

The weighted average useful life of all identified acquired intangible assets is 3.9 years. The useful lives for trade names and customer relationships are 1.0 years and 4.0 years. Identifiable intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over the period of estimated benefit using the straight-line method and the estimated useful lives of one to four years. The straight-line method of amortization represents the Company’s best estimate of the distribution of the economic value of the identifiable intangible assets.

As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded $1,386,800 of goodwill. The goodwill balance is primarily attributed to the anticipated synergies from the acquisition and expanded market opportunities with respect to the integration of Arcadian Services' products with the Company's other solutions. The Company believes that the factors listed above support the amount of goodwill recorded as a result of the purchase price paid.

For the year ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred transaction costs of $438,600 and $0 in connection with the Arcadian Services acquisition, which were expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
