Martin D. McNulty, Jr. “MJ”, Interim Chief Executive Officer, stated, “During the quarter, Acacia and Starboard completed the process of establishing a well-capitalized and differentiated corporate acquisition vehicle. As part of this process, Acacia’s capital structure has been significantly streamlined, and we now have a platform that can scale, working with partners to complete complex or large transactions, and taking full advantage of opportunities in our target markets.”

“The ongoing market turmoil continues to affect relative valuations, and our pipeline of potential transactions is the largest and strongest it has been,” added Mr. McNulty. “We maintain rigor in our evaluation process, but we are moving methodically to pursue acquisitions of attractive businesses we would like to own. The new Acacia comprises a strong capital base and a talented team of professionals who are actively identifying, evaluating and advancing opportunities to grow our business.”

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Summary:

• Total revenues were $15.9 million, compared to $1.6 million in the same quarter last year.
  • Printronix generated $9.6 million in revenue in the quarter.
  • The Intellectual Property business generated $6.3 million in licensing and other revenue during the quarter, compared to $1.6 million in the same quarter last year.
• General and administrative expenses were $15.0 million, compared to $10.3 million in the same quarter of last year due to the inclusion of Printronix operating expenses and increased parent business development expense.
• Operating loss of $11.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $12.7 million in the same quarter of last year, with the improvement due to higher intellectual property revenue and profit.
  • Printronix contributed $0.4 million in operating income.

  • Net income included $36.1 million in realized gains, offset by $36.4 million in unrealized losses, related to the decline in share price of certain holdings, as well as the reversal of unrealized gains previously recorded for shares sold during the quarter for realized gains.
  • The Company recognized non-cash income of $41.6 million related to the change in fair value of the Starboard warrants and embedded derivative liabilities due to the decline in Acacia’s stock price during the quarter.
  • During the third quarter last year, Acacia recognized $101 million in realized and unrealized gains in the value of the life sciences portfolio, primarily related to the IPO of Oxford Nanopore in September, 2021.

Life Sciences Portfolio

Acacia has generated $452.3 million in proceeds from sales and royalties of the Life Sciences Portfolio through September 30, 2022, which was purchased for an aggregate price of $297 million. The remaining positions in the Life Sciences Portfolio represent $109.4 million in book value as shown below:

Balance Sheet and Capital Structure

• Cash, cash equivalents and equity investments measured at fair value totaled $323.3 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $670.7 million at December 31, 2021. During the first nine months of 2022, Acacia has repaid $120.0 million in principal amount of Senior Secured Notes held by Starboard, and repurchased $51 million in Acacia shares.
• Equity securities without readily determinable fair value totaled $5.8 million at September 30, 2022, which amount was unchanged from December 31, 2021.
• Investment securities representing equity method investments totaled $47.3 million at September 30, 2022 (net of noncontrolling interests), compared to $19.9 million at December 31, 2021. The increase relates to milestone payments earned by MalinJ1 through its interest in Viamet, but not yet received. Acacia owns 64% of MalinJ1.
• Total indebtedness, which represents the Senior Secured Notes issued to Starboard, was $61.4 million at September 30, 2022. During the third quarter, the Company repaid $55.0 million in Starboard Notes.
• The Company’s book value totaled $282.5 million, or $7.33 per share, at September 30, 2022, compared to $268.2 million, or $6.60 per share at June 30, 2022, and $430.5 million, or $8.80 per share, at December 31, 2021. Acacia’s book value reflects the impact of the outstanding warrant and embedded derivative liabilities.
• Assuming the full impact of the recapitalization transactions under the recently announced agreement with Starboard, Acacia’s pro forma book value would rise to $520.1 million, or $5.22 per share.

Pro Forma Book Value and Changes to Derivative Valuations

At September 30, 2022, book value was $282.5 million and there were 38.5 million shares of common stock outstanding, for a book value per share of $7.33, compared to $268.2 million, or $6.60 per share at June 30, 2022 and $430.5 million, or $8.80 per share at December 31, 2021. The decrease in book value since December 31, 2021 is due to the decline in the fair value of certain assets. Total liabilities for warrants and convertible preferred stock to be eliminated upon exercise or expiration of all such warrants and convertible preferred stock were $91.5 million at September 30, 2022.

Book value and book value per share calculations are performed in accordance with GAAP. The calculation of book value under GAAP requires the Company to reflect the impact of liabilities associated with potential issuances of shares related to the exercise of the Company’s Series A and Series B warrants and conversion of the Company’s Series A preferred stock. The value of those liabilities varies over time based on fluctuations in the trading price of the Common Stock. The agreement reached with Starboard to streamline the Company’s capital structure and strengthen its financial position (the “recapitalization transactions”) is expected to eliminate all of these instruments over time, and will therefore eliminate the associated liabilities.

Management believes that providing investors with a presentation of pro forma book value and pro forma book value per share that reflect the anticipated impact of the completion of each component of the recapitalization transactions may assist investors in understanding the Company’s financial condition and capital structure (see below for a description of the material components of the recapitalization transactions). However, these pro forma calculations have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the actual book value and book value per share amounts reflected in the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2022. For example, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the timing and completion of the recapitalization transactions, and it is possible that certain aspects of the transactions will not be completed, or will be completed on terms that are different from the Company’s current expectations, which could result in material changes to the Company’s pro forma book value and pro forma book value per share calculations.

Book value at September 30, 2022 reflects the following:

• $60.0 million in principal amount of Senior Secured Notes issued to Starboard, all of which may be used to exercise Series B warrants at $3.65 per share;
• $35.0 million in face value ($18.5 million in book value) of Series A preferred stock issued to Starboard; and
• $91.5 million of warrants and embedded derivative liabilities associated with all preferred stock and warrants held by Starboard, to be eliminated upon exercise or expiration of all such warrants and preferred stock.

Upon completion of the recapitalization transactions with Starboard:

• $18.3 million of cash would be added upon exercise of the remaining Series A warrants, and 5.0 million shares of common stock would be issued;
• Starboard will purchase 15.0 million new shares in a proposed rights offering, at $5.25 per share, for total proceeds of $78.8 million in the first quarter of 2023;
• $35.0 million in face value of Series A preferred stock would be eliminated, and 9.6 million shares of common stock would be issued in June 2023, following Acacia’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders;
• $61.4 million of liabilities attributable to the Senior Secured Notes would be eliminated, and Starboard would invest an additional $55.0 million in cash related to the Series B warrant exercise, and 31.5 million shares of common stock would be issued in July 2023;
• $91.5 million of warrant and embedded derivative liabilities attributable to the Series A Warrants, Series B warrants and Series A preferred stock would be eliminated by July 2023;
• Acacia would pay Starboard a total of $75.0 million as consideration for early exercise of the Series A warrants, Series B warrants, and convertible preferred stock, by July 2023; and
• Acacia will incur transaction costs associated with the negotiation and consummation of the recapitalization transactions.

The expected impact of the completion of the recapitalization transactions would be an incremental $237.6 million in book value, and an incremental 61.1 million of shares outstanding. Assuming such completion, pro forma book value would be $520.1 million, and diluted shares outstanding would be 99.6 million, resulting in pro forma book value per share of $5.22 at September 30, 2022.

See Attachment A which illustrates the anticipated sequential impact of each component of the recapitalization transactions on pro forma book value and pro forma book value per share through the expected date of completion of such transactions through July 2023.

In previous quarterly reports, prior to the approval of the recapitalization transactions, Acacia had presented a similar pro forma book value per share calculation assuming the exercise of all outstanding Series A and Series B warrants, as well as the conversion of the Series A preferred stock. This resulted in a reported pro forma book value per share of $5.87 at June 30, 2022, $5.91 at March 31, 2022, and $6.51 at December 31, 2021. The $5.25 per share cash exercise feature of 68.5 million Series B warrants expired on October 28, 2022.

Share Repurchase Program

During the third quarter, the Company completed its $40.0 million stock repurchase program by acquiring 2.3 million shares at an average price of $4.98 per share, for a total investment of $11.5 million. With the completion of the previously authorized program, the Board will continue to evaluate uses of capital in the future.

About the Company

Acacia is a permanent capital platform with a strategy to purchase businesses based on the differentials between public and private market valuations. Acacia leverages its (i) access to flexible capital that can be deployed opportunistically as a result of its strategic partnership with Starboard, (ii) disciplined focus on identifying opportunities where it can be an advantaged buyer, initiate a transaction opportunity spontaneously, avoid a traditional sale process and complete the purchase of a business, division or other asset at an attractive price, (iii) willingness to invest across industries and in off-the-run, often misunderstood assets that suffer from a complexity or multi-factor discount, (iv) relationships and partnership abilities across functions and sectors, and (v) strong expertise in corporate governance and operational transformation. Acacia seeks to identify opportunities where it believes it is an advantaged buyer, where it can avoid structured sale processes and create the opportunity to purchase businesses, divisions and/or assets of companies at an attractive price due to Acacia’s unique capabilities, relationships or expertise, or Acacia believes the target would be worth more to it than to other buyers.
