Perma-Fix Medical S.A.


On April 4, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in a Polish Company, a publicly traded shell company on the NewConnect (alternative share market run by the Warsaw Stock Exchange) in Poland and sold to the Polish shell all of the shares of Perma-Fix Medical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“PF Medical”) organized by the Company (incorporated in January 2014). PF Medical’s only asset was and is a worldwide license granted by the Company to use, develop and market the new process and technology developed by the Company in the production of Technetium-99 or “Tc-99m” for medical diagnostic applications. Since the acquired shell company (now named as Perma-Fix Medical S.A.) does not meet the definition of a business under ASC 805, “Business Combinations”, the transaction was accounted for as a capital transaction. The primary purpose of PF Medical S.A. (which we own 64%) is to provide a financing vehicle for the development and marketing of its medical isotope (“Tc-99m”) technology used in medical diagnostic testing for potential use throughout the world.


During August, 2014, PF Medical S.A. executed stock subscription agreements totaling approximately $2,357,000 for 250,000 shares of its Series E Common Stock to non-U.S. persons in an offshore private placement under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). In connection with this transaction, as of March 31, 2015, PF Medical S.A. has received approximately $1,545,000 in payment (of which approximately $67,000 was received in the first quarter of 2015) for the 250,000 shares (before deduction for commissions and legal expenses relating to this offering of approximately $242,000). The $67,000 is being held in an escrow account as the proceeds will be used to pay for potential future expenses related to the medical isotope project. The Company has recorded the amount held in escrow as restricted cash on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. PF Medical S.A. expects to receive the remaining proceeds for the stock subscription receivables by December 2015. The remaining stock subscription receivables are offset against non-controlling interest. If PF Medical S.A. does not receive approximately $592,000 of the remaining stock subscription receivables, which represents approximately 68,181 shares, PF Medical S.A. has the option to have the purchaser of such shares transfer all of its rights, title and interest in such shares to PF Medical S.A. or for PF Medical S.A. be paid for the 68,161 shares with shares in another publicly traded company.
