Item 7.01 Regulation FD.
On November 30, 2017, Emerald Expositions Events, Inc. (the Company) announced the acquisition of Connecting Point Marketing Group (CPMG) from its co-founders and investors. The cash consideration paid by the Company for CPMG was approximately $37 million.
CPMGs cash flow characteristics are similar to those of the Company, with cash received in advance of the events taking place and most of the costs incurred at or around the time of the events. However, the revenue and cost profile of CPMG is different from most of the Companys portfolio, and CPMGs historical EBITDA margins have been approximately half the historical Adjusted EBITDA margins of the Company.
A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
