Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 24, 2014, Proto Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its entry into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) relating to its purchase of FineLine Prototyping, Inc. (“FineLine”). This press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities under Section 18 of the Exchange Act. Furthermore, the information contained in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On April 23, 2014, the Company entered into the Agreement by and among itself and Robert I. Connelly and Michael C. Goff (collectively, the “Sellers”). The Company consummated the transactions contemplated thereby on the same date and acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of FineLine from the Sellers. FineLine is a provider of additive manufacturing services.
The Company paid the Sellers aggregate consideration of $34 million in cash at the closing for the shares of FineLine, which amount is subject to adjustment based on FineLine’s indebtedness and net working capital as of the closing date and FineLine’s expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. The Agreement also provides that the Company will pay the Sellers up to an additional $3 million in cash if FineLine’s revenue for 2014 exceeds certain amounts and if certain milestones relating to the integration of FineLine’s and the Company’s businesses are achieved within certain timeframes, none of which extend beyond 24 months after the date of the Agreement.
