Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On December 30, 2015, Transcat acquired, effective December 31, 2015, substantially all of the assets of Spectrum Technologies, Inc. (“Spectrum”), a Pennsylvania corporation and provider of commercial calibrations, test equipment repair services and product sales, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among Transcat, Spectrum, and Brian E. Hubler and Kenneth E. Horvath (the “Shareholders”). There were no material relationships between Spectrum or either Shareholder and Transcat or its affiliates, or any director or officer of Transcat, or any associate of any such director or officer, other than in respect of the transaction.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Transcat purchased substantially all of the assets of Spectrum for a cash purchase price of $11,750,000, $500,000 of which was withheld at closing as security subject for a possible reduction (of up to $500,000) in the purchase price if the EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) deriving from Transcat’s operation of the business acquired from Spectrum, during calendar 2016, does not meet a designated target. In addition, the purchase price is subject to adjustment, at and after closing, based on the final calculation of Spectrum’s accounts receivable as of December 31, 2015. Transcat also withheld $1,175,000 from the purchase price, which Transcat will hold for 12 months to secure Spectrum’s obligations for this post-closing purchase price adjustment and indemnification under the terms of the Agreement.

In addition, Transcat, Spectrum and each Shareholder entered into a five-year Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement as of December 31, 2015 and Transcat entered into a lease agreement with an affiliate of the Shareholders for an initial five-year term.

A copy of the Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending December 26, 2015.
