1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information was prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and are intended to show how the transaction might have affected the historical financial statements of the Company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information set forth herein is based upon the consolidated financial statements of Myers and Signature. The pro forma unaudited condensed combined consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 is comprised of the consolidated balance sheet of Myers as of December 31, 2023 and the consolidated balance sheet of Signature as of December 30, 2023 and pro forma adjustments to illustrate the effects of the Merger as if the transaction had occurred on December 31, 2023. The pro forma unaudited condensed combined consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 is comprised of the consolidated statement of operations of Myers for the year ended December 31, 2023, the consolidated statement of operations for Signature for the fiscal year January 1, 2023 through December 30, 2023 and pro forma adjustments to illustrate the effects of the Merger as if the transaction had been effective beginning January 1, 2023. Certain reclassifications have been made to Signature's historical financial information in order to conform to Myers' presentation of financial information.
The Company's condensed combined consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP") as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information was prepared in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X Article 11 and is based on the historical financial statements of Myers and Signature, adjusted using the acquisition method of accounting. This method of accounting includes transaction costs related to the Merger transaction both incurred in the historical periods presented as well as incurred or expected to be incurred subsequent to the historical periods presented. Additionally, nonrecurring expenses pertaining to the preliminary assessment of fair value step-up of inventory in purchase accounting are also included. These adjustments and others are further described in Note 3 to the pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the combined financial position or results of operations had the Acquisition occurred as of the dates indicated, nor is it meant to be indicative of any anticipated combined financial position or future results of operations that the combined company will experience after the completion of the Acquisition. To the extent there are significant changes to the combined company’s business following completion of the transaction, the assumptions and estimates set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements could change significantly.
The Company has accounted for the Acquisition of Signature as of February 8, 2024 using the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 805 "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805"). For purposes of estimating the fair value of assets acquired as reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements, in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the Company established a framework for measuring fair values. The applicable accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Additionally, under the applicable accounting guidance, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by market participants. As a result, the Company may be required to value assets of Signature at fair value measures that do not reflect the Company’s intended use of those assets. Use of different estimates and judgments could yield different results.
The pro forma adjustments presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of Myers after giving effect to the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits from the Acquisition, including potential synergies that may be generated in future periods. Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments, which are more fully described in Note 3. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

3. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited condensed combined consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 are as follows:
| |
{a} | The Company acquired 100% of the equity of Signature through a merger agreement for aggregate consideration of $350 million, subject to certain customary adjustments for cash, indebtedness, net working capital, and transaction expenses, as further specified in the Merger Agreement. Signature's long-term debt was not acquired, and was extinguished at closing of the transaction. The Company funded the transaction by amending its loan agreement to add a $400 million Term Loan A, while maintaining its existing $250 million revolving credit facility. A portion of the proceeds from the Term Loan A were used to repay other debt and transaction costs. |
| |
| Signature's equity was eliminated as a part of purchase accounting. Residual excess purchase consideration after eliminating the $99.6 million of Signature equity resulted in an allocation to goodwill for the excess purchase price. The excess purchase consideration was further adjusted by estimated changes in the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities, of which the material adjustments are noted in these footnotes. |

Reduction to excess purchase price for pro forma changes in liabilities | | $ | (3,440 | ) |
Reduction to excess purchase price | | $ | 52,920 | |
| |
{k} | The current portion of notes receivable totaling $2.6 million was reclassified from Trade accounts receivable, net to Other accounts receivable, net. |
| |
{l} | Adjustment to include $4.7 million of Merger transaction costs, including legal, accounting, consulting and other advisory costs that were incurred or are expected to be incurred after December 31, 2023. |
| |
{m} | Deferred income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments are estimated based on blended statutory rates, which are estimated to be approximately 25%. |
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited condensed combined consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 are as follows:
| |
{n} | Depreciation of $3.2 million was reclassified from Selling, general and administrative expenses to Cost of sales. Signature had presented depreciation and amortization as a separate line within operating expenses in its consolidated statement of operations, but it was combined with Selling, general and administrative expenses, for presentation purposes in the Historical Signature column of these pro forma unaudited condensed combined consolidated statement of operations. |
| |
{o} | Based on the preliminary assessment of the fair value of fixed assets and identifiable intangible assets, Cost of Sales was increased by $1.7 million and Selling, general and administrative expenses, was increased by $4.9 million to reflect higher depreciation and amortization resulting from purchase accounting. |
| |
{p} | Based on the preliminary assessment of fair value step-up of inventory, Cost of Sales was increased by $4.5 million to reflect the stepped-up value of acquired inventory as it is sold in the first year after the Merger. This is a nonrecurring adjustment that does not affect the Company's consolidated statement of operations beyond 12 months after the Merger. |
| |
{q} | Selling, general and administrative expenses have been increased by $4.7 million to reflect Merger transactions costs, including legal, accounting, consulting and other advisory costs that were incurred or are expected to be incurred after December 31, 2023. This is a nonrecurring adjustment that does not affect the Company's consolidated statement of operations beyond 12 months after the Merger. Historical Myers and Historical Signature Selling, general and administrative expenses also include $2.6 million and $2.0 million of Merger transaction costs. |
| |
{r} | During purchase accounting, Myers assessed the functional currency of Signature's foreign subsidiary to be local currency based on its current and future expected operations. As a result, the foreign subsidiary's assets and liabilities are not expected to revalue through the statement of operations and the $1.0 million loss from this revaluation has been adjusted from Other (income) expense. |
| |
{s} | Interest expense, net was increased by $21.3 million to reflect the interest expense associated with the borrowings incurred to complete the Merger. |
