Exhibit 20.3 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements combine the historical statements of operations of Zany and Noodle, referred to in this section as the combined company, after giving effect to the merger, as if the merger had occurred on February 2, 1997, and the historical balance sheet of the combined company as if the merger had occurred on January 29, 2000 and April 29, 2000, in each case using the "pooling of interests" method of accounting. The following unaudited pro forma information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of each of Zany and Noodle. The pro forma amounts are presented for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the combined company that would have actually occurred had the merger been consummated as of February 2, 1997 or of the financial condition of the combined company had the merger been consummated as of January 29, 2000 or April 29, 2000 or of the future results of operations or financial condition of the combined company. The pro forma information does not reflect any synergies anticipated as a result of the merger, in particular the elimination of costs associated with Noodle's status as a public company and other administrative savings. There can be no assurances that such synergies will be realized. Zany and Noodle estimate that they will incur direct transaction costs of approximately $3.0 million, net of tax, associated with the merger, which will be charged to operations in the quarter in which the merger is consummated, and are reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements. In addition, it is expected that following the merger, the combined company will incur additional expenses, which are currently estimated to range from $10.0 to $13.0 million, net of tax, associated with the merger and integrating the operations of the two companies. These merger and integration expenses are not reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements. 1 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED APRIL 29, 2000 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Pro Forma ------------------------- Zany Noodle Adjustments Combined ------- ------- ----------- -------- NET SALES......................... $39,363 $24,072 $ $63,435 COST OF GOODS SOLD, including occupancy costs.................. 31,395 15,178 4,842 (a)(b) 51,415 ------- ------- ------- ------- Gross profit.................... 7,968 8,894 (4,842) 12,020 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.......... 16,097 12,695 (4,887)(a) 23,905 ------- ------- ------- ------- Operating loss..................
