Exhibit 99.4
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On July 13, 2015, ARI Network Services, Inc. (“ARI” or the “Company”), completed its acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Direct Communications, Incorporated (“DCi”), pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of July 13, 2015 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"). Consideration for the acquisition included, (1) a cash payment equal to $3,750,000; (2) 159,795 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"); and (3) the issuance of a promissory note (the “DCi Note”) with a principal amount of $2,000,000, subject to adjustment upon the final working capital settlement in accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement.
The (1) unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations of the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and the year ended July 31, 2014 for the Company, based on the Company’s unaudited statement of operations for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2015 and fiscal year ended July 31, 2014 and DCi’s unaudited statement of operations for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2015 and fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, and (2) the unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet for ARI as of April 30, 2015, based on the Company’s unaudited balance sheet as of April 30, 2015 and DCi’s unaudited balance sheet as of March 31, 2015, illustrate the estimated effect of the acquisition of DCi on the Company’s financial statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on certain estimates and assumptions made with respect to the combined operations of ARI and DCi, which the Company believes are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations or financial position of ARI or DCi that actually would have been achieved had the acquisition of DCi been completed on the assumed dates, or to project the Company's results of operations or financial position for any future date or period. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations gives pro forma effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred at the beginning of the year ended periods presented for each Company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives pro forma effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on the balance sheet dates presented for each Company.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was based on and should be read in conjunction with the following:
(1) | the ARI audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended July 31, 2014, and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 29, 2014; |
|
|
(2) | The ARI unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended April 30, 2015, and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on June 15, 2015. |
|
|
(3) | the DCi audited financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the notes thereto, attached as Exhibit 99.3 to ARI’s amended Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on September 25, 2015. |
|
|
(4) | The DCi unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the six months ended March 31, 2015, and the notes thereto, attached as Exhibit 99.3 to ARI’s amended Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on September 25, 2015. |
The acquisition is being accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Under this method, the total consideration transferred to consummate the acquisition is being allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on extensive judgments and estimates of their respective fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. Accordingly, the allocation of the consideration transferred in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements is preliminary and will be adjusted upon completion of the final valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such adjustments could be significant. The final valuation is expected no later than twelve months after the acquisition date.
For income tax purposes, the acquisition is a taxable business combination. The ARI tax basis in the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be equal to fair market value as of the acquisition date, and thus the basis for financial reporting and tax purposes will generally be the same.
The historical consolidated financial statements of the Company have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma
condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the unaudited condensed combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any operating cost synergy savings that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition, or the costs necessary to achieve these operating synergies.
