(2) Description of Business

Skyhook Holding, Inc. (formerly known as TruePosition) was originally incorporated on November 24, 1992 to provide technology for locating wireless phones and other mobile devices. TruePosition offered a passive network-based location system based on its patented U-TDOA technology (“U-TDOA Service”) to provide E-9-1-1 services domestically and to enhance services in support of commercial applications and national security law enforcement worldwide. In February 2014, TruePosition acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares of Skyhook Wireless, Inc., for approximately $57.5 million in cash. Skyhook Wireless, Inc. was an alternative location services provider that offered a positioning system that used device-based measurements, as opposed to TruePosition’s network-based technology.

In 2015, as a result of the loss of one of its major customers – a wireless carrier that accounted for 80% - 90% of TruePosition’s revenue – as well as changes in the regulatory environment, TruePosition ceased making further investment in its U-TDOA Service. Thereafter, in May 2016, TruePosition and Skyhook Wireless, Inc. combined operations in order to focus on the development and sale of Skyhook’s device-based location technology, and TruePosition subsequently changed its name to Skyhook Holding, Inc.  Skyhook Holding, Inc. and Skyhook Wireless, Inc. are referred to collectively herein as “Skyhook.”

Today, Skyhook markets and sells two primary products: (1) a location determination service called the Precision Location Solution; and (2) a location intelligence and data insights service called Geospatial Insights.

Skyhook’s Precision Location Solution works by collecting nearby radio signals (such as information from Wi-Fi access points, cell towers, IP addresses and other radio beacons) that are observed by a mobile device. Skyhook’s Geospatial Insights product uses anonymized location data to analyze foot traffic patterns and better understand the real-world behavior of consumers. Skyhook’s revenue is derived from the sale and integration of its Precision Location Solution (including the licensing of software and data components that make up that solution) and the licensing of Geospatial Insights data. In addition, Skyhook earns revenue through entering into licensing agreements with companies to utilize its underlying intellectual property (including patents).
