NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
AAM’s historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the Pro Forma Financial Statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Sale, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of operations (the “Pro Forma Statements of Operations”), expected to have a continuing impact on the results of AAM. The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”) is based on the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet of AAM and the internally-prepared unaudited balance sheet of the Grede Business, and has been prepared to reflect the Sale as if it occurred on September 30, 2019. The Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is based on the historical unaudited consolidated statement of operations of AAM and the internally-prepared unaudited statement of operations of the Grede Business for this period. The Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 is based on the historical audited consolidated statement of operations of AAM and the internally-prepared unaudited statement of operations of the Grede Business for this period. The Pro Forma Statements of Operations give effect to the Sale as if it occurred on January 1, 2018, the beginning of the earliest period presented.
2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
Adjustments related to the Sale and the derecognition of balances of the Grede Business from the AAM consolidated financial statements are reflected in the “Pro Forma Adjustments” columns in the Pro Forma Financial Statements and are as follows:
Pro Forma Balance Sheet:
A1The following represents the calculation of the preliminary adjustment to cash and cash equivalents:
| | | September 30, 2019 (in millions) |
| Cash proceeds from the Sale subsequent to customary closing adjustments | | $ | 141.2 | |
| Payment of transaction costs | | | (5.7 | ) |
| Adjustment to cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 135.5 | |
A2The following represents the assets and liabilities of the Grede Business that were classified as held-for-sale in the September 30, 2019 historical balance sheet of AAM:
| | | September 30, 2019 (in millions) |
| Accounts receivable, net | | $ | 89.1 | |
| Inventories | | | 32.8 | |
| Prepaid expenses and other | | | 1.5 | |
| Property, plant and equipment, net | | | 184.6 | |
| Intangible assets, net | | | 158.2 | |
| Other assets and deferred charges | | | 71.0 | |
| Impairment of carrying value | | | (225.0 | ) |
| Total assets held-for-sale | | $ | 312.2 | |
| | | | | |
| Accounts payable | | | 71.3 | |
| Accrued compensation and benefits | | | 6.8 | |
| Accrued expenses and other | | | 3.4 | |
| Postretirement benefits and other long-term liabilities | | | 20.2 | |
| Total liabilities held-for-sale | | $ | 101.7 | |
A3A portion of the consideration to be received by AAM for the Sale is in the form of a deferred payment obligation of $60.0 million. Except in the case of certain acceleration events, TopCo will have twelve years after the closing of the Sale to pay (or cause to be paid) the deferred payment of $60.0 million, which will accrue interest at the rate of 6% per annum from January 1, 2020.
A4 This represents the estimated loss on the Sale that is included as an adjustment to Retained earnings but is not included in the Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 because it will not have a continuing impact on AAM after the Sale is completed.
A5 The Sale will result in the derecognition of approximately $2.1 million of net deferred actuarial gains in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) associated with the Grede Business’s pension and other postretirement benefit plans.
Pro Forma Statements of Operations
A6 This represents the adjustments to derecognize the Grede Business activity from the historical AAM consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018.
A7 As noted in adjustment A3, $60.0 million of the consideration received is in the form of a deferred payment obligation which will accrue interest at an annual rate of 6%, resulting in increased Investment income of $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.
A8 This represents adjustments to income tax expense (benefit) at the statutory rate of 21% in the United States.
A9 The adjustments to basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated using weighted-average shares of 115.6 million and 116.0 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 115.0 million and 115.8 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018.
