With CARiD, Onyx has developed a distinctive proprietary
technology platform for digital commerce and fulfillment, relying
on insights extracted from nearly 14 billion data points, a
physical footprint network comprising over 2,500 shipping
locations, nearly 5,000 active brands, and machine-learning
algorithms for complex fitment industries such as vehicle parts and
accessories. In announcing their definitive business merger
agreement with Legacy, Onyx is positioned to accelerate further
growth with new cash funding resulting from the business
combination as it looks to increase its already significant
footprint in the auto aftermarket industry.
Onyx’s proprietary fitment data and algorithms used in CARiD.com
and other verticals (such as MOTORCYCLEiD, TRUCKiD, and BOATiD)
compiled over the past decade, combined with its substantial
investments in artificial intelligence and machine learning,
provide online consumers with an enhanced user experience featuring
a breadth of offerings and service levels (including search
capabilities, training and learning, and provision of data
suppliers to enhance their product information), positioning it as
a key leader in the already $400+ billion auto aftermarket
industry.
The transaction values Onyx at an estimated enterprise value of
$331.1 million, which represents a 0.7x EV / 2021E Revenue
multiple, a discount to primary publicly-listed peer, PRTS’, EV /
2021E Revenue multiple of 1.2x1 and a 16.9x EV / 2021E Adjusted
EBITDA multiple, a discount to PRTS’ EV / 2021E Adjusted EBITDA
multiple of 25.1x1. As of June 30, 2020, CARiD was well-capitalized
with approximately $45.7 million of cash on the balance sheet.
CARiD’s existing common shareholders are rolling 100% of their
equity in CARiD, which represents 67.1% of the pro forma company.
The transaction is expected to close November 2020.

About Legacy Acquisition Corp.
Legacy raised $300 million in November 2017 and its securities

and sponsor investors. Legacy was formed for the purpose of
effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition,
stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar
business combination with one or more target businesses. Legacy is
