International Business Machines (IBM) 8-K Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

EXHIBIT 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On November 3, 2021 (the “Separation Date”), International Business Machines Corporation (the “Company”, “IBM”, “we”, “our” and “us”), a New York corporation, completed the previously announced separation of its managed infrastructure services business, into a separate, independent publicly traded company, Kyndryl Holdings, Inc. (the “Business” or “Kyndryl”). The separation was structured as a spin-off (the “Spin-off”), which occurred by way of a pro rata distribution (the “Distribution”) to IBM stockholders of 80.1 percent of the outstanding shares of Kyndryl. Each of the IBM stockholders received one share of Kyndryl common stock for every five shares of IBM common stock held of record as of the close of business on October 25, 2021 (the “Record Date”). Kyndryl is now an independent public company under the symbol “KD” on the New York Stock Exchange. After the distribution, IBM will no longer consolidate Kyndryl into its financial results (the entire transaction being referred to as the “Separation”).

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and give effect to the Separation. The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Income Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 reflect the Company’s results as if the Separation had occurred as of January 1, 2018 in that they reflect the reclassification of Kyndryl as Discontinued Operations for all periods presented. The adjustments in the “Transaction Accounting Adjustments” column in the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Income Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 give effect to the Separation and related transactions as if they had occurred as of January 1, 2020. The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021 reflects the Company’s financial position as if the Separation had occurred on June 30, 2021. After the date of the Separation, the historical financial results of Kyndryl will be reflected in our consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for all periods.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon the best available information and management estimates and are subject to assumptions and adjustments described below and in the accompanying notes to those financial statements. They are not intended to be a complete presentation of the Company’s financial position or results of operations had the Separation occurred as of and for the periods indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are provided for illustrative and informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future results of operations or financial condition had the Separation and related transactions been completed on the dates assumed. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors. Management believes these assumptions and adjustments are reasonable, given the information available at the filing date. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared to include transaction accounting adjustments to reflect the financial condition and results of operations as if the Separation occurred on January 1, 2020. In addition, we have provided a presentation of adjustments on page 8 that management believes are necessary to enhance an understanding of the pro forma effects of the transaction.

The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and assumptions management believes are, under the circumstances and given the information available at this time, reasonable, and best reflect the Separation on IBM’s financial condition and results of operations. The adjustments included within the “Kyndryl Discontinued Operations” column of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with the guidance for discontinued operations under GAAP. The Company's current estimates on a discontinued operations basis are preliminary and could change as the Company finalizes discontinued operations accounting to be reported in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information, as amended by the final rule, Amendments to Financial Disclosures About Acquired and Disposed Businesses, as adopted by the SEC on May 21, 2020. Management adjustments are presented for anticipated reductions to certain general corporate overhead costs associated with labor and benefits for shared resources transferred to Kyndryl that IBM does not intend to backfill after the Separation.

Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Kyndryl Discontinued Operations:

(a) Reflects the discontinued operations, including associated assets, liabilities, and equity and results of operations attributable to Kyndryl which were included in the Company's historical financial statements. In accordance with ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations, the amounts exclude the following:

i. General corporate overhead costs which were historically allocated to Kyndryl that do not meet the requirements to be presented in discontinued operations. Such allocations included labor and non-labor expenses related to IBM’s corporate support functions (e.g., finance, accounting, tax, treasury, IT, HR, legal, among others) that historically provided support to Kyndryl.

ii. The impact of intercompany purchases and sales between IBM and Kyndryl that were eliminated in consolidation. See note (k) for the impacts to our results from the historical intercompany purchases and sales at the new commercial pricing.

Transaction Accounting Adjustments:

(b) Reflects the estimated net incremental cash IBM receives from Kyndryl in connection with the Separation. The amount is based on the expectation that approximately $2.0 billion will be retained by Kyndryl.

(c) Reflects the retention by IBM of 19.9 percent of the outstanding common stock of Kyndryl, recorded at 19.9 percent of the net carrying value of Kyndryl as of the date of the Separation.

(d) Reflects additional deferred tax assets generated as a result of Kyndryl separation transactions.

(e) Kyndryl may realize tax benefits in the future from pre-spin taxes. Under the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement, these tax benefits may need to be reimbursed to IBM. A receivable has been recorded for potential reimbursements. The amount recorded is an estimate, and the final receivable may be different.

(f) Reflects additional tax liabilities expected to be incurred as a result of Kyndryl separation transactions.

(g) IBM has estimated approximately $25 million due to Kyndryl related to IBM’s share of income taxes for the pre-spin period.

(h) Reflects $396 million of additional estimated non-recurring costs to complete the Separation. These costs primarily relate to investment banker fees, legal fees, third-party consulting and contractor fees, information technology costs and other costs directly related to the Separation.

(i) Reflects an agreement under which IBM committed to provide Kyndryl with $265 million of upgraded hardware at no cost to Kyndryl over an expected two-year period after the Separation.

(j) Reflects the effect on total stockholders’ equity of the adjustments described in notes (b) through (i) above.

(k) Reflects the net effect of new commercial agreements that IBM and Kyndryl have entered into. The adjustments reflect the new pricing in these arrangements applied to historical sales of goods and services between IBM and Kyndryl.

(l) Reflects an estimated reduction in services revenue of $175 million and $330 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, respectively, from customer contracts transferred to Kyndryl that were historically managed by IBM.

(m) In connection with the Separation, IBM and Kyndryl entered into a Transition Services Agreement whereby IBM will provide certain post-closing services on a transitional basis. As such, a pro forma adjustment reducing selling, general and administrative expense by $37 million and $73 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, respectively, is reflected for this contractual arrangement.

(n) Represents $201 million and $431 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, respectively, of the income tax pro forma adjustments. This adjustment was determined by applying the relevant statutory tax rates to the jurisdictional mix of income including pre-tax pro forma adjustments described in notes (k), (l) and (m) above.

Management Adjustments:

IBM anticipates a reduction to certain general corporate overhead costs associated with labor and benefits for shared resources transferred to Kyndryl that IBM does not intend to backfill after the Separation. These costs were excluded from discontinued operations in note (a) above as they represent general corporate overhead costs that were historically allocated to Kyndryl and do not meet the requirements to be presented as discontinued operations. From a timeframe standpoint, these cost reductions will begin to materialize at the effective date of the Separation. Management believes the resource transfers and costs which were used as the basis for the management adjustments below are reasonable and representative of the labor-based cost reductions the company will realize after the separation of Kyndryl. IBM does not anticipate any material synergies or dis-synergies of general corporate overhead costs associated with non-labor-based costs.

Management believes the presentation of these adjustments are necessary to enhance an understanding of the pro forma effects of the transaction. The pro forma financial information below reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the pro forma financial information, aligned with the assessment described above.

These management adjustments include forward-looking information that is subject to the safe harbor protections of the Exchange Act. The tax effect has been determined by applying the relevant statutory tax rates to the aforementioned adjustments.

The table below includes the management adjustments.
