(c) NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The unaudited proforma condensed combined financial statements are based on Company’s and ULHK Entities historical financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of ULHL Entities and issuance of debt necessary to finance the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the six months ended November 30, 2022, and the year ended May 31, 2022, give effect to the ULHL Entities acquisition as if it had occurred on June 1, 2021. The unaudited proforma combined balance sheet as of November 30, 2022, gives effect to the ULHL Entities acquisition as if it had occurred on November 30, 2022, with recurring acquisition related adjustments reflected for such period.

 

The Company and the ULHL’s operating subsidiaries have different fiscal year ends. The historical unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended November 30, 2022, combines the Company’s historical unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended November 30, 2022, with the results of the ULHL’s operating subsidiaries for the six months ended September 30, 2022, as derived from the historical statement of operations of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries. The historical unaudited statement of operations of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries for the six months ended September 30, 2022, was determined by adding the historical audited statement of operations of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries for the nine-month ended September 30, 2022, and subtracting the historical condensed statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

The historical unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended May 31, 2022 combines the Company’s historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended May 31, 2022 with the results of the ULHL’s operating subsidiaries for the year ended March 31, 2022, as derived from the historical statement of operations of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries. The historical unaudited statement of operations of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries for the year ended March 31, 2022 was determined by adding the historical unaudited condensed statement of operations of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries for the three months ended March 31, 2022 to its historical audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021, and then subtracting the historical unaudited condensed statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

 

2. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

 

On February 21, 2023, Unique Logistics International, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the acquisition via a stock purchase agreement signed on April 28, 2022, and applicable amendments (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and Unique Logistics Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (the “ULHL”), whereby the Company acquired from ULHL all of ULHL’s share capital in eight (8) of ULHL’s operating subsidiaries as listed in Schedule I of the SPA Agreement (the “ULHL Entities Acquisition”).

 

 

 

 

Promissory Notes:

 

Under the SPA, payment of the Initial Purchase Price was to be made by the Company’s delivery of $21,000,000 in cash and issuance by the Company of a promissory note in favor of the Seller in the principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “Original Note”) for a total of $22,000,000 As part of the Company and the Seller’s agreement to restructure the Transaction under Amendment No. 2, the Company and the Seller agreed to the following: (a) the Company would, as contemplated under the SPA, issue the Original Note; (b) reduce the cash portion of the Initial Purchase Price payable at Closing from $21,000,000 (the “Initial Cash Portion”) to $3,500,000; and (c) in lieu of payment in cash of the balance of the Initial Cash Portion, equal to $17,500,000, the Company would issue certain additional promissory notes consisting of the following:

 

  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $4,500,000 which matures March 7, 2023, having an interest rate of 15%.
     
  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5,000,000 which matures April 7, 2023, having an interest rate of 15%.
     
  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5,000,000 which matures June 30, 2023, having an interest rate of 15%.
     
  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,000,000 due June 30, 2023 (the “Initial Taiwan Maturity Date”), bearing no interest and payable on: (a) July 15, 2023, provided that all government and other regulatory approvals necessary or required by Taiwan in order to consummate the Transaction as the same relates to Unique-Taiwan (the “Taiwan Approvals”) have been received by the Initial Taiwan Maturity Date; or (b) in the event that the Taiwan Approvals have not been received by the Taiwan Maturity Date, payment under this promissory note will be due and payable within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Taiwan Approvals. This promissory note was issued in lieu of cash otherwise due under the original Local SPA in respect of the Purchased Shares of Unique-Taiwan.
     
  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,000,000 due June 30, 2023 (the “Initial Vietnam Maturity Date”), bearing no interest and payable on: (a) July 15, 2023, provided that all government and other regulatory approvals necessary or required by Vietnam in order to consummate the Transaction as the same relates to Unique-Vietnam (the “Vietnam Approvals”) have been received by the Initial Vietnam Maturity Date; or (b) in the event that the Vietnam Approvals have not been received by the Vietnam Maturity Date, payment under this promissory note will be due and payable within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Vietnam Approvals. This promissory note was issued in lieu of cash otherwise due under the original Local SPA in respect of the Purchased Shares of Unique-Vietnam.

 

Contingent Considerations:

 

At Closing, the Company issued two additional promissory notes, in lieu of cash, as payment of certain milestones set forth in the SPA that were already achieved, (these additional promissory notes, together with the aforementioned promissory notes, collectively, the “Promissory Notes”):

 

  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,500,000 due on June 30, 2023, having an interest rate of 15%. This Promissory Note was issued in respect of the purchase price adjustment provided for under the SPA.
     
  Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,000,000 due on February 21, 2024, and bearing no interest. This Promissory Note was issued in respect of the purchase price adjustment provided for under the SPA.

 

In addition to the Initial Purchase Price, ULHL will be eligible for an additional one-time cash earn-out payment (the “Earn Out Payment”), in the amount of (i) $2,500,000, if the EBITDA of the Purchased Shares, in the aggregate, exceeds $5,000,000 for the one-year period beginning on July 1, 2022 and ending June 30, 2023 (the “Earn Out Period”), or (ii) $2,000,000, if the EBITDA of the Purchased Shares, in the aggregate is equal to or less than $5,000,000 but exceeds $4,500,000, for the Earn Out Period, in each case, to be paid by the Company within 90 days of June 30, 2023. Management estimated fair value of the earnout payment based on the actual up to date performance of the acquired entities and the probability of the earn out payment occurrence to be at $1,750,000 as of November 30, 2022.

 

 

 

 

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Company will account for the ULHL Entities Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total consideration paid is allocated to an acquired company’s tangible and intangible assets, liabilities, and any non-controlling interest based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Once we complete our final valuation processes for the ULHL Entities Acquisition, we may report changes to the value of the assets acquired, as well as the amount of goodwill, and those changes could differ materially from what we present here.

 

During the year ended May 31, 2022 and the six months ended November 30, 2022, the Registrant incurred $0.5 million and $0.3 million of non-recurring transaction costs associated with these transactions which were directly expensed in the period incurred.

6. TRANSACTION ACCOUNTING ADJUSTMENTS

 

(1) Reflects the purchase price of $28,750,000 to be paid for ULHL entities as a combination of cash $3,500,000 paid in cash at closing and issuance of the related party notes (notes 1,2, 3, 6 , 7, 8 and 9) recorded as $23,750,000 in current liabilities, and $1,500,000 in promissory notes (notes 4 and 5) as a long-term debt. The total purchase price is the basis for preliminary estimate of goodwill, in the amount of $3,294,251 which represents excess of the purchase price over the fair value of ULHL entities identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The preliminary fair value of equity in net assets of acquired affiliated companies equals $4,875,473 plus the equity method goodwill of $6,270,527 for a total of $11,146,000.

 

(2) Reflects elimination of Investment in affiliated companies on the books of the Registrant against the equity of the acquired ULHL entities

 

(3) Reflects elimination of intercompany balances in accounts payable and receivable.

 

(4) Reflects elimination of intercompany balances in revenue and expenses. Any intercompany profit would not be material and will be passed onto the ultimate third-party customer.

 

(5) Reflects an assumption that the acquisitions took place in the beginning of the reporting period, or June 1, 2021, and financed with notes, accordingly interest expense was estimated and added as an additional expense to the combined proforma financial statements. This interest was estimated to be $758,425 for the year ended May 31, 2022 and $570,925 for the six months ended November 30, 2022, net of the anticipated tax benefit of $151,685 and $114,185, respectively.
