Note -1 Basis of presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on Paramount’s and Calico’s historical consolidated financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Calico. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and year ended June 30, 2015 give effect to the Calico acquisition as if it occurred on July 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2016 gives effect to the Calico acquisition as if it had occurred on March 31, 2016.
These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been compiled
| a) | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines Paramount’s balance sheet as of March 31, 2016 and Calico’s balance sheet of March 31, 2016. |
| b) | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2015 combines Paramount’s statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2015 and Calico’s statement of operation for the year ended June 30, 2015. |
| c) | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 combines Paramount’s statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and Calico’s statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2016. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements also do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition, the total expected costs to integrate the operations of Paramount and Calico, or the total expected costs necessary to achieve such cost savings and operating synergies.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical presentation of Calico to conform to the presentation used in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. These reclassifications have no impact on the historical operating loss, total assets, liabilities or shareholders’ equity reported by Paramount or Calico. Upon consummation of the acquisition, further review of Calico’s financial statements may result in additional revisions to Calico’s classifications to conform to Paramount’s presentation.
Calico presents its financial statements in its functional currency of the Canadian Dollar. Paramount presents its financial statements in its functional currency of the U.S. Dollar. The historical financial statements of Calico, from which the unaudited consolidated combined pro forma financial statements have been derived, have been translated from the Canadian Dollar to the U.S. Dollar utilizing exchange rates follows:
Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2016 | 0.7710 |
Statement of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 | 0.7476 |
Statement of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2015 | 0.8548 |
5
Upon consummation of the Agreement, Paramount will continue the review of Calico’s accounting policies. As a result of that review, Paramount may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the combined financial statements. At this time, Paramount is not aware of any differences that would have a material impact on the combined financial statements, except as follows.
Calico’s prepares its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Under IFRS, acquisition and exploration expenditures on mineral properties, less recoveries in the pre-production stage, are deferred until such time as the properties are put into commercial production, sold, or become impaired. On the commencement of commercial production, the deferred costs are charged to operations on the unit-of-production method based upon estimated recoverable proven and probable reserves. General exploration expenditures are charged to operations in the period in which they are incurred.
Under U.S. GAAP, acquisition costs are capitalized, but exploration costs are not considered to have the characteristics of property, plant and equipment and, accordingly, are expensed prior to the company determining that economically proven and probable mineral reserves exist, after which all such costs are capitalized.
Set out below are the material adjustments to Calico’s mineral properties and deficit as at March 31, 2016, and to operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2015 in order to conform to U.S. GAAP:

Note 3 – Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The acquisition of Calico by Paramount has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805. Further, under the acquisition method, the purchase price is allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, with any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired recorded as goodwill.
The estimated consideration is approximately $8.7 million based on Paramount’s closing share price of $1.21 on March 11, 2016. The value of the merger consideration will fluctuate based upon changes in the share price of Paramount’s common stock and the number of Calico’s common shares outstanding on the closing date.
6
The following table summarizes the components of the estimated consideration
Shares eligible for conversion |
| 102,445,845 |
Common stock exchange ratio per share |
| 0.07 |
Equivalent new shares issued (par value $0.01) |
| 7,171,209 |
Paramount common stock price on March 11, 2016 |
| $1.21 |
Total preliminary purchase price |
| $8,677,163 |
The purchase price will be computed using the value of Paramount common stock on the closing date, therefore the actual purchase price will fluctuate with the market price of Paramount common stock until the Transaction is closed. As a result, the final purchase price could differ significantly from the current estimate, which could materially impact the pro forma financial statements.
The following table provides sensitivities to changes in purchase price due to changes in the per share price of Paramount common stock:
| Price of Paramount Common Stock | Exchange Ratio | Calculated per Share Value of Calico Common Stock | Total Purchase Price |
As of March 11, 2016 | $1.21 | 0.07 | $0.085 | $8,677,163 |
Decrease of 10% | $1.03 | 0.07 | $0.072 | $7,375,589 |
Increase of 10% | $1.39 | 0.07 | $0.097 | $9,978,738 |
The following represents the preliminary allocation of the total purchase price to the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:
Total Purchase Price |
| $8,677,163 |
Cash and cash equivalents |
| 121,552 |

Net tangible assets were valued at their respective carrying amounts as management believes that these amounts approximate their current fair values.
Note 4 – Pro forma adjustments
The pro forma adjustments are based on our preliminary estimates and assumptions that are subject to change. The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information:
| a. | To adjust mineral property exploration costs that were capitalized under IFRS, but would have been expensed under U.S. GAAP (see Note 2). The effect of this adjustment at March 31, 2016 is to reduce the carrying value of mineral property interest by $7,942,712 and increase deficit by $7,942,712. The effect of this adjustment for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 is to increase exploration expense by $1,330,028. The effect of this adjustment for the year ended June 30, 2015 is to increase exploration expense by $2,416,944. |
| b. | To record the issuance of: (a) 7,171,209 common shares of Paramount with par value of $0.01 in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Calico pursuant to the Agreement; recorded at fair value of $8,677,163 (see Note 3), and to eliminate the common stock, contributed surplus and deficit of Calico prior to acquisition. |
| c. | Represents the elimination of non-recurring transaction costs incurred during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2016 of $700,523 that are directly related to the acquisition of Calico. |
| d. | In connection with the acquisition of Calico, Paramount expects to incur approximately $800,000 of cash expenses related to a loan to Calico to finance Calico’s operating activities. As at March 31, 2016, $300,000 of this loan has been advanced and this adjustment represents the elimination of the amount owing upon completion of the acquisition of Calico. |
| e. | Pro forma loss per share, basic and diluted, includes the addition of 7,171,209 shares of common stock which will be issued in conjunction with the closing of the Agreement (Note 3). The following adjustments represent the changes to basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding: |
|
| Historical Weighted Average Shares - Basic and Diluted |
| Share Issuance |
| Pro Forma Weighted Average Shares - Basic and Diluted |
Year ended June 30, 2015 |
| 8,185,999 |
| 7,171,209 |
| 15,357,208 |
Nine months ended March 31, 2016 |
| 8,518,791 |
| 7,171,209 |
| 15,690,000 |
| f. | Paramount has not provided for any income tax benefit related to the operating losses of Calico due to insufficient evidence to indicate on a more likely than not basis such benefits could be realized. |
