Acquisition of Asyl

 

On April 12, 2018, we completed the acquisition and merger of Asyl into the Company. This acquisition joined the two largest retail brokerage firms in Kazakhstan and increased our client accounts in Kazakhstan by 16,000 accounts. Asyl was formerly controlled by Mr. Turlov since April 28, 2017. The Company agreed to acquire Asyl from Mr. Turlov. We acquired Asyl for approximately $2.2 million, which was equal to the fair value of the net assets acquired by the Company.

 

When preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2018, management determined that certain amounts included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended June 30, 2017 required revision, due to closing of the completion of merger of Asyl in April 2018, which was deemed to be an entity under common control with the Company since April 28, 2017.

 

Acquisition of Nettrader

 

On May 28, 2018, we completed the acquisition and merger of Nettrader. This resulted in the acquisition of approximately 16,000 new Russian client accounts. This acquisition also finalized our acquisition of the Tradernet trading platform, a browser-based application and in some countries a supporting mobile app to facilitate our customers’ trading activities and ability to monitor and manage all aspects of their personal accounts and participate in our client social network. Nettrader was formerly owned by Mr. Turlov since May 18, 2017. We acquired Nettrader for approximately $3.8 million, which was equal to the fair value of the net assets acquired by the Company.

 

When preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2018, management determined that certain amounts included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended June 30, 2017 required revision, due to closing of the completion of merger of Nettrader in May 2018, which was deemed to be an entity under common control with the Company since May 18, 2017.
