UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements below are based on the financial statements of Archibald Candy and the consolidated financial statements of Sweet Factory included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the year ended August 29, 1998 and the three-month period ended November 28, 1998 are based on the financial statements of Archibald Candy and adjusted to give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on August 31, 1997. During the periods presented, neither Archibald Candy's nor Sweet Factory's statements of operations included any amounts related to discontinued operations. Archibald Candy operates using a fiscal year ending the last Saturday in August. Prior to the Acquisition, Sweet Factory operated using a fiscal year ending the Saturday closest to December 31st. Adjustments for the Transactions are based upon historical financial information of Archibald Candy and Sweet Factory and certain assumptions that the Company's management believes are reasonable. The Acquisition will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under this method, the purchase price will be allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The actual fair value may vary from the preliminary estimates. The pro forma financial data does not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Archibald Candy that actually would have resulted had the Transactions occurred at the date indicated, or project the results of operations or financial position of the Company for any future date or period. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data below should be read together with the financial statements of Archibald Candy and the consolidated financial statements of Sweet Factory, and the accompanying notes, included elsewhere in this Prospectus. 1 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET AS OF NOVEMBER 28, 1998 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) PRO FORMA SWEET ADJUSTMENTS PRO FORMA ARCHIBALD FACTORY (SEE NOTE 1) CONSOLIDATED ---------- --------- ----------- ------------ ASSETS Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents.................................... $ 7,443 $ 1,357 $ (2,000)(a) $ 6,800 Accounts receivable, net..................................... 6,552 568 -- 7,120 Inventories.................................................. 26,818 6,083 -- 32,901 Other current assets......................................... 896 2,881 -- 3,777 ---------- --------- ----------- --------- Total current assets........................................... 41,709 10,889 (2,000) 50,598 Property, plant, and equipment, net.......................... 20,754 28,507 (3,162)(b) 46,099 Goodwill, other intangibles, and deferred financing fees..... 34,870 1,729 4,000 (c) 40,599 Other assets................................................. 2,895 3,015 -- 5,910 ---------- --------- ----------- --------- Total assets................................................... $ 100,228 $ 44,140 $ (1,162) $ 143,206 ---------- --------- ----------- --------- ---------- --------- ----------- --------- LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY (DEFICIT) Current Liabilities: Accounts payable............................................. $ 6,659 $ 5,185 $ -- $ 11,844 Accrued liabilities.......................................... 10,400 1,963 3,670 (d) 16,033 Notes payable................................................ -- 10,437 (10,437)(e) -- Current portion of long-term debt and capital lease obligations................................................ 59 213 -- 272 ---------- --------- ----------- --------- Total current liabilities...................................... 17,118 17,798 (6,767) 28,149 Due to affiliate............................................. 604 -- -- 604 Long-term debt, less current portion......................... 100,000 -- 30,000 (f) 130,000 Capital lease obligations, less current portion.............. 38 104 -- 142 Deferred rent................................................ -- 1,843 -- 1,843 Shareholder's equity (deficit):................................
