Acquisitions Acquisitions
Acquisition of Hot Air, Inc.

On November 3, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares and voting interest of Anthony's. The results of Anthony's operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date. Anthony's, through its subsidiaries, owns and operates casual dining pizza restaurants under the trade name Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza & Wings. As of the acquisition date, Anthony's had 61 restaurants open and operational in Florida, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, and Rhode Island.
The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $75.9 million, which consisted of the following:

Consideration Paid
(in thousands)
Common Stock $ 25,562 
Preferred Stock 46,906 
Option Consideration Shares 3,403 
Total Consideration $ 75,871 

The fair value of the common shares issued and option consideration shares was determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s common shares on the day preceding the acquisition date. The fair value of the preferred stock was determined using a discounted cash flow methodology. The expected future redemption payment was forecasted based on the contractual PIK (payment in kind) interest and estimated redemption date of December 31, 2024.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The Company determined the fair value of certain intangible assets. The measurement period for such purchase price allocations ended on November 3, 2022 or twelve months from the date of acquisition and the allocation below is final.

(in thousands) Fair Value November 3, 2021
Cash $ 5,522 
Accounts receivable 597 
Inventory 986 
Other current assets 1,662 
Property & equipment 13,534 
Intangible assets 67,344 
Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities (15,451)
Long-term borrowings (77,063)
Deferred tax liability $ (1,755)
Fair Value of Tangible and Identifiable Intangible assets and liabilities assumed $ (4,624)
Consideration paid 75,871 
Goodwill $ 80,495 

Of the $67.3 million of acquired intangible assets, $60.7 million was assigned to registered trademarks with a 30-year useful life and $6.6 million was assigned to acquired liquor licenses with an indefinite life. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of Anthony's. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The Company recognized $3.1 million of acquisition-related costs that were expensed in the year ended December 31, 2021. These costs are included in the consolidated statement of operations within general and administrative expenses. The Company also recognized $0.8 million in costs associated with issuing and registering the shares issued as consideration in the Anthony's acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2021. Those costs were deducted from the recognized proceeds of issuance within stockholders’ equity.

During the year ended January 2, 2023, the Company adjusted its preliminary estimate of the fair value of net assets acquired by $0.2 millions. The adjustments to the preliminary estimate of net assets acquired resulted in a corresponding increase in estimated goodwill and include updates to estimates of provisional amounts recorded for certain accruals and receivables as of the Anthony's closing date.
The amounts of revenue and net loss for Anthony's included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the period from November 3, 2021, the acquisition date, through December 31, 2021 are as follows:

(in thousands) 2021
Revenue $ 22,419 
Net Loss (142)

Proforma Information (Unaudited)

The following represents the unaudited proforma consolidated statement of operations as if the Anthony's acquisition had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for the entire year ending December 31, 2021:

(in thousands) Year Ended December 31, 2021
Revenue $ 168,906 
Net Loss (138,490)

These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Anthony's to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets had been applied on January 1, 2021, together with the consequential tax effects.
