NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1. BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2015, and the unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and the year ended September 30, 2014, are based on the historical financial statements of the Company and Agile after giving effect to the Company’s acquisition of Agile and reclassification and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined financial information.
The Company accounts for business combinations pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ASC 805, Business Combinations. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company uses it best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
The fair values assigned to Agile’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The estimated fair values of these assets acquired and liabilities assumed are considered preliminary and are based on the information that was available as of the date of acquisition. The Company believes that the information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but is waiting for additional information, primarily related to estimated values of current and non-current income taxes payable and deferred taxes, which are subject to change, pending the finalization of certain tax returns. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of the assets and liabilities as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is not intended to represent or be indicative of the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position that the Company would have reported had the Agile acquisition been completed as of the dates presented, and should not be taken as a representation of the Company’s future consolidated results of operation or financial position.
