UNAUDITED PRELIMINARY PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
In January 2024, Summit Materials, Inc. (the “Company” or “Summit Inc.”) completed a merger with Argos North America Corp. ("Argos USA"), Cementos Argos S.A. (“Cementos Argos”), Argos SEM LLC and Valle Cement Investments, Inc., pursuant to which Summit acquired all of the outstanding equity interests (the "Transaction") of Argos USA from the Argos SEM LLC and Valle Cement Investments, Inc. in exchange for $1.2 billion of cash, the issuance of 54,720,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock and one preferred share in a transaction valued at approximately $3.2 billion. The cash consideration was funded from the net proceeds of an $800.0 million offering of senior notes due 2031 and new term loan borrowings under the Company’s credit facility. The purchase price is subject to customary adjustments, with any upward or downward adjustments made against the cash consideration. The Transaction Agreement, dated as of September 7, 2023 (the “Transaction Agreement”) relating to the Transaction contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and agreements, including entry into a stockholder agreement.
The Argos USA assets include four integrated cement plants, two grinding facilities, 140 ready-mix concrete plants, eight ports and 10 inland terminals across the East and Gulf Coast regions, with a total installed cement grinding capacity of 9.6 million tons per annum and a total import capacity of 5.4 million tons of cement per annum. The import facilities allow the importing of cement from other countries, including a minimum quantity from a cement plant in Cartagena, Colombia, owned by Cementos Argos, as stipulated under a cement supply agreement entered into upon the closing of the Transaction. The Argos USA assets included 1.1 billion tons of reserves and resources in four quarries.
The following unaudited preliminary pro forma financial information summarizes the results of operations for the Company and Argos USA as though the companies merged as of January 1, 2023. We have reflected elimination of royalties expenses paid to the parent of Argos USA which will not be incurred post merger. We have also adjusted for expenses incurred by Argos USA as they pursued an initial public offering and the merger with the Company, as well as interest expense adjustments to reflect the payoff of Argos USA debt obligations and new debt incurred by the Company described above.
