Intangible assets as of March 30, 2019 and December 29, 2018 consist of the following:

Intangible assets GeoTraq, net   $ 20,036     $ 20,969  
Patent     19       19  
Total intangible assets GeoTraq, net   $ 20,055     $ 20,988  

 

The useful life and amortization period of the GeoTraq intangible acquired is seven years. Intangible amortization expense was $933 and $932 for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

 

On August 18, 2017, the Company acquired all of the assets and capital stock of GeoTraq by way of merger., the result of which GeoTraq became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

The final fair value of the single identifiable intangible asset acquired in the GeoTraq acquisition is a U.S. patent USPTO reference No. 10,182,402 titled “Locator Device with Low Power Consumption” together with the assignment of intellectual property that included historical know-how, designs and related manufacturing procedures was $26,097, which included the deferred income tax liability associated with the intangible asset. Total consideration paid in connection with the acquisition of GeoTraq consisted of $200 in cash, unsecured promissory notes bearing interest at the annual rate of 1.29% maturing on August 18, 2018 in the aggregate principal of $800, and 288,588 shares (exact number) of Series A Preferred Stock (as defined below) with a final fair value of $14,963. See Note 19 – Series A Preferred Stock. In connection with the acquisition, an additional intangible asset amount was recorded in the amount of $10,134 and an offsetting deferred tax liability recorded of the same amount, $10,134, to reflect the future tax liability attributable to the GeoTraq asset acquired. There were no other assets acquired or liabilities assumed.

 

At the time of the acquisition of GeoTraq, GeoTraq had no business operations, one intangible asset and historical know-how and designs. GeoTraq is in the development stage. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-01 Business Combinations (Topic 805), which clarifies the definition of a business for purposes of applying ASC 805. The Company has determined that GeoTraq is a single or group of related assets, not a business as clarified by ASU 2017-01 at the time of acquisition.
