Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 29, 2024, Simply Good Foods USA, Inc., a New York corporation (“Simply USA”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Safe Brands, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and Only What You Need, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Target”). Simply USA is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Simply Good Foods Company (the “Company”).
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the equity securities of Target from Seller at the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Acquisition”) for a cash purchase price of $280,000,000 (subject to customary adjustments for Target’s levels of cash, indebtedness, net working capital and transaction expenses as of the closing).
Closing Conditions
The obligation of the parties to the Purchase Agreement to consummate the Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including (i) the expiration or termination of applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (ii) the absence of any injunction or order that prevents or prohibits the consummation of the Acquisition, and (iii) certain other customary conditions. There is no financing condition.
Termination
The Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights for both Simply USA and Seller, including, among others, a mutual termination right if the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are not consummated by August 27, 2024.
Other Terms
The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities of the parties customary for a transaction of this type, including, without limitation, covenants regarding the conduct of the business of Target prior to the closing.
The representations and warranties of Simply USA, Seller and Target contained in the Purchase Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of Simply USA, Seller and Target, as applicable. In addition, such representations and warranties (i) have been made only for purposes of the Purchase Agreement, (ii) have been qualified by confidential disclosures made between the parties in connection with the Purchase Agreement, (iii) are subject to materiality qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors, (iv) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Purchase Agreement and (v) have been included in the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding Simply USA, Seller and Target, the Company or their respective business.
Investors should not rely on the representations and warranties or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Simply USA, Target, or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the Company and Simply USA that has been, is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements and other documents that the Company files with the SEC.
