Exhibit 99.4
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Amendment No. 1 to the Current Report on Form8-K (“Form8-K/A”) to which this pro forma financial information is being filed as an exhibit. Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” refers to the Landcadia Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“LCA”) prior to the closing of the transaction with Waitr Incorporated (the “business combination”), and to Waitr Holdings, Inc. after the business combination.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 assumes that the business combination, the acquisition of BiteSquad.com, LLC (“Bite Squad”), and Debt Financings occurred on September 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017 present pro forma effect to the business combination, the acquisition of Bite Squad, and Debt Financings as if they had been completed on January 1, 2017.
The pro forma financial statements are prepared in conformity with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”), Regulation S-X: Article 3, Rule 3-05, Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired or to be Acquired (“Rule 3.05”) and Article 11,Pro forma Financial Information(“Article 11”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The pro forma combined financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the post-combination company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the business combination, the Debt Financing, and acquisition of Bite Squad occurred on the dates indicated. The pro forma combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the post-combination company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
The historical financial information of the Company was derived from the unaudited and audited financial statements of Landcadia Holdings, Inc. as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017. The historical financial information of Waitr Incorporated (“Waitr”) was derived from the unaudited and audited consolidated financial statements of Waitr as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017. The historical financial information of Bite Squad was derived from the unaudited and audited consolidated financial statements of Bite Squad as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017, attached as an exhibit to this Form 8-K/A. This information should be read together with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, as well as Waitr’s unaudited and audited consolidated financial statements included in the Definitive Proxy Statement and “Bite Squad Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, which is included elsewhere in the 8-K/A, along with other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 8-K/A.
The business combination between the Company and Waitr was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, the Company has been treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the business combination was treated as the equivalent of Waitr issuing stock for the net assets of the Company, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of the Company were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the business combination are those of Waitr.
Waitr was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:
| • | | The post-combination company’s board of directors consists of seven directors. Waitr has control of the Chairmanship and appointed four of the seven Board members; |
| • | | Waitr holdsC-suite management roles for the post-combination company. |
| • | | From a revenue and business operation standpoint, Waitr is the larger entity in terms of relative size; |
| • | | Waitr’s current Lake Charles, LA headquarters are the headquarters of the post-combination company |
