Exhibit 99.1
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On December 17, 2019, Zafgen, Inc. (“Zafgen”), Chondrial Therapeutics Inc. (“Chondrial”), Zordich Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Chondrial Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), the sole stockholder of Chondrial, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended on March 9, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into Chondrial, with Chondrial surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). The Merger was completed on May 28, 2020 pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. In addition, immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, Zafgen effected a 1-for-12 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of Zafgen’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Zafgen Common Stock”). At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of Chondrial’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Chondrial Common Stock”), outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive shares of Zafgen based on an exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement. At the Effective Time following the Reverse Stock Split, the exchange ratio was determined to be 60,912.5005 shares of Zafgen Common Stock for each share of Chondrial Common Stock (the “Exchange Ratio”). At the closing of the Merger on May 28, 2020, Zafgen issued an aggregate of 6,091,250 shares of its common stock to Holdings (the “Merger Shares”), based on the Exchange Ratio after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split described below. Holdings subsequently distributed the Merger Shares to its members. In connection with the Merger, Zafgen changed its name to Larimar Therapeutics, Inc.
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information gives effect to the Merger. Except as otherwise noted, the unaudited pro forma combined financial information also gives effect to the Reverse Stock Split. Amounts in the historical Zafgen and historical Chondrial columns of the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements do not give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.
The Merger has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Chondrial being deemed the acquiring company for accounting purposes. Under ASC 805, Chondrial, as the accounting acquirer, recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Zafgen in the merger at their fair values as of the acquisition date, which was then adjusted for the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the assets acquired.
Chondrial was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on an analysis of the criteria outlined in ASC 805 and the facts and circumstances specific to the merger, including: (1) shareholders of Chondrial own a substantial majority of the voting rights of the combined company; (2) the majority of the board of directors of the combined company is composed of directors designated by Chondrial under the terms of the merger; and (3) existing members of Chondrial management became the management of the combined company.
Because Chondrial has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Merger, but not the legal acquirer, the Merger is deemed a reverse acquisition under the guidance of ASC 805. As a result, upon consummation of the Merger, the historical financial statements of Chondrial became the historical financial statements of the combined company.
The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019 gives effect to the merger as if it took place on January 1, 2019 and combines the historical results of Zafgen and Larimar for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and Zafgen and Chondrial for the year ended December 31, 2019. The historical financial statements have been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are (1) directly attributable to the merger, (2) factually supportable, and (3) are expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results of operations of the combined company.
These pro forma results exclude the presentation of a pro forma consolidated combined balance sheet. The Company has presented a September 30, 2020 condensed consolidated balance sheet in its Financial Information filed with its Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2020, which reflect the actual balance sheet impacts of the merger.
