Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Prior to the opening of business on July 1, 2009, Interleukin Genetics, Inc. (“Interleukin”, “we”, “our”, “us”) and our wholly-owned subsidiary, AJG Brands, Inc. entered into an asset purchase agreement with Nutraceutical Corporation and Pep Products, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Nutraceutical Corporation, pursuant to which we sold substantially all of the Alan James Group business and assets of AJG Brands, Inc. to Pep Products, Inc. for an aggregate sale price of approximately $4.6 million in cash.  The business we sold primarily develops, markets and sells nutritional supplements and related products into retail consumer channels.  The asset purchase agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations that are customary for a transaction of this nature.

 

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the asset purchase agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 2.01 by reference.  The sale was completed prior to the opening of business on July 1, 2009.

 

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

(b)(1) Pro Forma Financial Information

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information gives effect on a pro forma basis to the disposition of substantially all of the Alan James Group business and assets of AJG Brands, Inc., a subsidiary of Interleukin Genetics, Inc., as disclosed in Item 1.01 and 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, principally by subtracting from the historical consolidated financial position and results of operations of Interleukin amounts attributable to the assets disposed of, and adding to the historical consolidated financial position of Interleukin an amount equal to the cash proceeds from the disposition of such assets.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the disposition as if it had occurred on March 31, 2009.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and twelve months ended December 31, 2008 give effect to the disposition as if it had occurred at the beginning of each such period.  You should not assume that this unaudited pro forma financial information is indicative of future results or the results we would have achieved had the transaction occurred at the dates presented.

 

This unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. We have prepared the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information based upon estimates and assumptions we have deemed appropriate based upon currently available information, and such estimates and assumptions are discussed in the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, and the significant effects of this sale have been properly reflected in our unaudited pro forma financial statements. However, actual results will differ from the estimates and assumptions used. The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes and is not designed to represent, and does not represent, what the financial position or operating results would have been had the sale of substantially all of the Alan James Group business and assets of AJG Brands, Inc. been completed as of the dates assumed, nor is it intended to project Interleukin’s future financial position or results of operations.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

 

Pro Forma Adjustments

 

(1)   Assumes proceeds from the sale of substantially all of The Alan James Group business and assets of $4.6 million, net of transaction costs of $515,000 and a holdback of $200,000 which is reflected in other assets on the balance sheet.

 

(2)   Reflects the value of the assets purchased as of March 31, 2009.

 

(3)   The unaudited pro forma financial statements presented do not include the impact of the accelerated vesting of options resulting from the “change in control” agreements of certain employees in connection with the sale.  Income tax effects are assumed to be offset by net operating loss carryforwards.  The impact of these adjustments were determined to be non-material for purposes of the unaudited pro forma financial statements.

 

(4)   Adjustment to accumulated deficit consists of the following (in thousands):

 

Net assets of The Alan James Group sold

 

(1,840

Proceeds net of transaction costs
