1 Exhibit 99.2 ------- ---- ASCENT PEDIATRICS, INC. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE) INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED COMBINED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND AS OF AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 In March 1997 Ascent Pediatrics, Inc. ("Ascent" or the "Company") signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire a product line of Upsher-Smith. Accordingly, these accompanying unaudited combined pro forma financial statements reflect the following: - The issuance of $5,000,000 of convertible subordinated secured notes (the "Notes") no later than the closing of this offering presented as if this transaction occurred on January 1, 1996 with respect to the Unaudited Combined Pro Forma Statements of Operations and on March 31, 1997 with respect to Unaudited Combined Pro Forma Balance Sheet. - The conversion of Series A and B convertible preferred stock, and Series D, E and F redeemable convertible preferred stock, as if the conversion took place at March 31, 1997, which mandatorily convert upon closing of an initial public offering. - The warrant obligation pertaining to the warrants issued or issuable in connection with the Notes would be transferred to additional paid in capital since the put feature on those warrants would cease to exist in the event of a public offering. The Ascent Pro Forma Subtotal March 31, 1997 column represents Ascent's March 31, 1997 historical financial statements adjusted for the issuance of an additional $5,000,000 of Notes no later than the closing of this offering, the Preferred Stock conversions and reclassification of the warrant obligation to additional paid in capital as described above and prior to adjustments related to the acquisition described below. In addition, the accompanying unaudited combined pro forma financial statements reflect the acquisition of the Feverall acetaminophen suppository line ("Product Line") from Upsher-Smith for a purchase price equal to $11.5 million plus the cost of inventories. Under the terms of the agreement, Ascent has agreed to purchase the Product Line, including certain intellectual property, technical information, product formulations and regulatory approvals and registrations. Ascent will not purchase any accounts receivable and will not assume any liabilities of Upsher-Smith. For purposes of the combined pro forma financial statements, this acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company paid a non-refundable deposit of $250,000 in 1996. Upon the closing, the Company is required to make a cash payment to Upsher-Smith of approximately $5.75 million plus the cost of the inventory ($235,696 at March 31, 1997) and to sign a promissory note in the amount of approximately $5.5 million. This note will be payable 225 days following the closing. Ascent has also agreed to purchase from Upsher-Smith, Ascent's requirements for products in the Product Line for a period of five years. The Unaudited Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements combine Ascent's Pro forma Balance Sheet with the Statement of Assets Related to the Product Line to be Acquired as if the transaction occurred on March 31, 1997 and Ascent's Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 with the related Statement of Net Sales and Identified Costs and Expenses of the Product Line to be Acquired as if the transaction had occurred on January 1, 1996. The Statements of Net Sales and Identified Costs and Expenses includes advertising and promotion expense that substantially relate directly to the Product Line to be acquired by Ascent. Selling expense items are allocated based on estimates and assumptions and primarily reflect an estimate of activity attributable to the Product Line relative to the total selling activity of Upsher-Smith. General and administrative and research and development expenses of Upsher-Smith were not dedicated specifically to the Product Line to be acquired and, because Ascent would not acquire any of such cost structure of Upsher-Smith, these costs were excluded from the Statements of Net Sales and Identified Costs and Expenses. Pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect Ascent's estimate of the incremental expense that would have been incurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1996. The unaudited combined pro forma statements do not purport to be indicative of F-24 2 the financial position or the results of operations had the probable acquisition actually occurred at this time or what results in the future may be. The Statement of Assets Related to the Product Lines to be Acquired and the Statements of Net Sales and Identified Costs and Expenses of the Product Lines to be Acquired have been derived from their respective historical financial statements. The Unaudited Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes thereto and with the historical financial statements and related notes thereto of Ascent and the historical financial statements and related notes thereto of the Upsher-Smith Product Line to be Acquired.
