On February 18, 2014, Q-Car Corporation announced its plan to acquire 90 percent of the outstanding 1,000,000 shares InstaPower Corporation's common stock in a business combination later in the year following regulatory approval. Q-Car will account for the transaction in accordance with ASC 805, "Business Combinations."
On May 1, 2014, Q-Car purchased a 90 percent controlling interest in InstaPower's outstanding voting shares. On this date, Q-Car paid $60 million in cash and issued one million shares of Q-Car common stock to the selling shareholders of InstaPower. Q-Car's share price was $20 on the announcement date and $27 on the acquisition date.
InstaPower's remaining 100,000 shares of common stock are owned by a small number of investors who do not actively trade their shares. Using other valuation techniques (comparable firms, discounted cash flow analysis, etc.), Q-Car estimated the fair value of the InstaPower's noncontrolling shares at $11,000,000.
The parties agreed that Q-Car would issue to the selling shareholders an additional one million shares contingent upon the achievement of certain performance goals during the first 18 months following the acquisition. The acquisition-date fair value of the contingent stock issue was estimated at $10 million.
InstaPower has a research and development (R D) project underway to develop a fast charging battery technology. The technology has a fair value of $14 million. Q-Car considers this R D as in-process because it has not yet reached technological feasibility and additional R D is needed to bring the project to completion. No assets have been recorded in InstaPower's financial records for the R D costs to date.
InstaPower's other assets and liabilities (at fair values) include the following:
