Exhibit 99.3
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(UNAUDITED)
INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following unaudited pro forma financial information is based on the
financial statements of Blue Rhino Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Blue
Rhino"), Uniflame, Inc. and its subsidiary ("Uniflame") and the combined
financial statements of International Propane Products, LLC ("IPP") and Bison
Valve, LLC ("Bison"). IPP and Bison are related through common ownership and
control, and have accordingly been presented on a combined basis for both the
historical financial statements, included elsewhere in this filing, and for the
following pro forma statements.
The following unaudited consolidated pro forma balance sheet as of January 31,
2000 has been prepared as if the acquisition of the assets of Uniflame and
certain assets of the combined entities of IPP and Bison had occurred on that
date. The following unaudited consolidated pro forma statement of operations for
the year ended July 31, 1999, and the six months ended January 31, 2000, gives
effect to the acquisition by Blue Rhino of the assets of Uniflame and the assets
of IPP and Bison, as if such transactions had occurred at the beginning of the
periods presented.
On September 21, 1999, Blue Rhino acquired certain assets of Bison for a
purchase price of approximately $2.2 million. On March 31, 2000, Blue Rhino
acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of IPP for a purchase
price of approximately $4.1 million. The allocation of the aggregate purchase
price of the acquisitions has been allocated to the tangible and intangible
assets and liabilities acquired based upon their respective estimated fair
values. The allocation of the aggregate purchase price reflected in the Pro
Forma Financial Information is preliminary. The final allocation of the purchase
price is contingent upon a final review of the other intangible assets and an
assessment of the acquired net assets; however, that allocation is not expected
to differ materially from the preliminary allocation. The acquisitions will be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
On March 31, 2000, Blue Rhino acquired substantially all the assets of Uniflame,
which will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The
allocation of the aggregate purchase price of the acquisition (approximately
$13.5 million) has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and
liabilities acquired based upon their respective fair values. The allocation of
the aggregate purchase price reflected in the Pro Forma Financial Information is
preliminary. The final allocation of the purchase price is contingent upon a
final balance sheet audit as of March 31, 2000, the review for other intangible
assets and an assessment of the acquired net assets; however, that allocation is
not expected to differ materially from the preliminary allocation.
The Pro Forma Financial Information is based on the historical financial
statements of Blue Rhino and Uniflame and the combined financial statements of
IPP and Bison and the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying
notes. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations do not purport to
represent what Blue Rhino's results of operations actually would have been if
the acquisitions had occurred as of the dates indicated or what results will be
for any future periods. The Pro Forma Financial Information is based upon
assumptions that Blue Rhino believes are reasonable and should be read in
conjunction with the Financial Statements and the related notes thereto included
elsewhere in this filing.

(a) Historical balances for Blue Rhino for the 12 months ended July 31, 1999,
are derived from the audited financial statements as filed in Form 10-K for
the period. The historical balances for Blue Rhino for the 6 months ended
January 31, 2000, are derived from the unaudited financial statements as
