The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, combines the historical balance sheet of Blue Water and the historical balance sheet of Clarus as of June 30, 2021, on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination and related transactions, summarized below, had been consummated on June 30, 2021.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and year ended December 31, 2020, combine the historical statements of operations of Blue Water and Clarus for such periods on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination and related transactions had been consummated on January 1, 2020, the beginning of the earliest period presented.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been developed from and should be read in conjunction with:
| ● | the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements; |
| ● | the historical unaudited financial statements of Blue Water as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and the historical audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes thereto; |

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only and does not necessarily reflect what the Combined Entity’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Business Combination, convertible notes issuance and private placement occurred on the dates indicated. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the Combined Entity. 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 unaudited transaction accounting adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed. Assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are described in the accompanying notes. The Combined Entity believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all the significant effects of the Business Combination, convertible notes issuance and private placement based on information available to management at this time and that the transaction accounting adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The following summarizes the unaudited pro forma common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the consummation of the Business Combination transaction:
| | Common Stock Outstanding | |
Stockholder | | % | | | No. shares | |
Clarus (excludes unexercised Clarus warrants) | | | 82.32 | % | | | 17,886,348 | |
Public | | | 11.68 | % | | | 2,536,969 | |
Sponsor (including % of Blue Water’s directors and officers) | | | 6.00 | % | | | 1,302,500 | |
Total No. Shares Class A common stock | | | 100 | % | | | 21,725,817 | |
The foregoing ownership percentages with respect to the Combined Entity following the Business Combination are based in the assumption that there are no adjustments for the outstanding Public or Placement warrants issued by Blue Water and no awards were issued under the Equity Incentive Plan and no exercise of the Clarus warrants assumed in the Business Combination.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” The historical financial information of Blue Water and Clarus include transaction accounting adjustments to illustrate the estimated effect of the Business Combination, the convertible notes issuance and the private placement and certain other adjustments to provide relevant information necessary for an understanding of the combined company upon consummation of the transactions described herein.
Notwithstanding the legal form of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination is expected to be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP because Clarus has been determined to be the accounting acquirer under Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The determination is primarily based on the evaluation of the following facts and circumstances taking into consideration the Blue Water redemptions:
| ● | The pre-combination equity holders of Clarus hold the majority of voting rights in Combined Entity; |
| ● | The largest individual minority stockholder of the Combined Entity is an existing stockholder of Clarus; |

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects all Blue Water’s public stockholders that exercised redemption rights with respect to their public shares. A total of 3,270,531 shares were redeemed for an aggregate redemption value of approximately $33.4 million. The resulting redemption scenario still provided BLUW with cash at closing of the Business Combination of greater than the minimum requirement of $5.0 million pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
The Combined Entity expects to enter into new equity awards with its employees after the consummation of the Business Combination. The terms of these new equity awards have not been finalized and remain subject to change. Accordingly, no effect has been given to the unaudited pro forma combined financial information for the new awards.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not reflect the income tax effects of the transaction accounting adjustments as any change in the deferred tax balance would be offset by an increase in the valuation allowance given Clarus incurred negative cash flows during the historical periods presented.
