On July 22, 2019 Journey purchased Ximino®, a minocycline hydrochloride used to treat acne from a third party. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”), total consideration for the APA is $9.4 million, comprised of an upfront payment of $2.4 million payable within 60 days after execution on September 22, 2019. The remaining four payments totaling $7.0 million are due in consecutive years commencing on the second anniversary of execution of the APA. In addition, Journey is obligated to pay royalties in the mid-single digits based on net sales of Ximino, subject to specified reductions.

The Company, in accordance with ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, determined the purchase of Ximino did not constitute the purchase of a business, and therefore recorded the purchase price of Ximino as an asset, to be amortized over the life of the product, which is deemed to be seven years. In addition, the Company determined pursuant to ASC 450, Contingencies, that royalty payments in connection with the APA will be recorded when they become payable with a corresponding charge to cost of goods sold.

In accordance with the terms of the APA Journey will incur interest expense in the event of payment default. As such per ASC 835-30 Interest-Imputed Interest, Journey recorded an initial discount for imputed interest of $2.3 million. As of December 31, 2019, Journey recorded an intangible asset related to this transaction of $7.1 million which was recorded on the consolidated balance sheet of Fortress.
