STEEL PARTNERS HOLDINGS L.P.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

On July 2, 2015, Handy & Harman Ltd. ("HNH"), a subsidiary of Steel Partners Holdings L.P., ("SPLP"), completed the acquisition of JPS Industries, Inc. ("JPS") and as a result of the acquisition, JPS became a wholly owned subsidiary of HNH. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and for the six months ended June 30, 2015 combine the historical consolidated statements of operations of SPLP and JPS, giving effect to HNH's acquisition of JPS as if it had occurred on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of SPLP and JPS, giving effect to HNH's acquisition of JPS as if it had occurred on June 30, 2015. The historical financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to HNH's acquisition of JPS, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was based on and should be read in conjunction with the:
• separate historical financial statements of SPLP as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the related notes included in SPLP's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014;
• separate historical financial statements of JPS as of and for the years ended November 1, 2014 and November 2, 2013 and the related notes thereto (incorporated in their entirety by reference to Exhibit 99.3 to SPLP's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 16, 2015);
• separate historical financial statements of SPLP as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and the related notes included in SPLP's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015; and
• separate historical financial statements of JPS as of and for the six months ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014 and the related notes included in JPS's financial statements as of and for the six months ended May 2, 2015 (included as Exhibit 99.2).
For ease of reference, all pro forma financial statements use SPLP's period-end date. The pro forma financial statements were prepared using the SPLP and JPS historical financial statements as of the dates and for the periods referred to above. No adjustments were made to JPS's reported information for its different quarter-end and year-end dates.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for informational purposes only. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what SPLP's financial position or results of operations actually would have been had HNH's acquisition of JPS been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of SPLP. There were no material transactions between SPLP and JPS or HNH and JPS during the periods presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements that would need to be eliminated.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under existing U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), which are subject to change and interpretation. The acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuations that have yet to progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measurement. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments included herein are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, and may be revised as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed. Differences between the preliminary estimates reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and the final acquisition accounting will likely occur, and these differences could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position.

Also, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that SPLP may achieve as a result of HNH's acquisition of JPS, the costs to integrate the operations of HNH and JPS or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements.

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)


1. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION
 
Effective July 2, 2015, Handy & Harman Group Ltd. ("H&H Group"), a wholly owed subsidiary of HNH, completed the acquisition of JPS pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of May 31, 2015 ("Merger Agreement"), by and among HNH, H&H Group, HNH Group Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of H&H Group ("H&H Acquisition Sub"), HNH Group Acquisition Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of H&H Acquisition Sub ("Sub"), and JPS. JPS is a major U.S. manufacturer of mechanically formed glass and aramid substrate materials for specialty applications in a wide expanse of markets requiring highly engineered components. At the effective time of the Merger (as described below), Sub was merged with and into JPS ("Merger"), with JPS being the surviving corporation in the Merger, and each outstanding share of JPS common stock (other than shares held by HNH and its affiliates, including SPH Group Holdings LLC ("SPH Group Holdings"), a subsidiary of SPLP, the parent company of HNH, and a significant stockholder of JPS), was converted into the right to receive $11.00 in cash. The aggregate merger consideration of $70,255 was funded primarily by H&H Group and also by SPH Group Holdings. H&H Group's funding of the aggregate merger consideration totals approximately $65,745, financed through additional borrowings under HNH's amended and restated senior credit agreement ("Senior Credit Facility").

As a result of the closing of the Merger, JPS was indirectly owned by both H&H Group and SPLP. Following the expiration of the 20-day period provided in Section 262(d)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law for JPS stockholders to exercise appraisal rights in connection with the Merger, and in accordance with an exchange agreement, dated as of May 31, 2015, by and between H&H Group and SPLP, HNH issued ("Issuance") to H&H Group 1,429,407 shares of HNH’s common stock and, following the Issuance, H&H Group exchanged ("Exchange") those newly issued shares of HNH common stock for all shares of JPS common stock held by SPH Group Holdings. As a result of the Exchange, H&H Group owned 100% of JPS and, on August 3, 2015, merged JPS with and into its wholly-owned subsidiary, HNH Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which was the surviving entity in the merger and was renamed JPS Industries Holdings LLC.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and was based on the historical financial statements of SPLP and JPS. For ease of reference, all pro forma statements use SPLP’s period-end date. The pro forma financial statements were prepared using the SPLP and JPS historical financial statements as of the dates and for the periods referred to above. No adjustments were made to JPS’s reported information for its different quarter-end and year-end dates. Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of JPS to conform with SPLP’s presentation.

The acquisition method of accounting under existing U.S. GAAP requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. In addition, the consideration transferred is measured at the closing date of the acquisition at the then-current market price. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from JPS will be recorded as of the completion of the acquisition at their respective fair values and added to those of HNH and SPLP. Financial statements and reported results of operations of SPLP issued after completion of the acquisition will reflect these values, but will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of JPS.
    
Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., advisory, legal, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition-related restructuring charges impacting the acquired company are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are accounted for as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred (see Note 4 - "Pro Forma Adjustments" for additional information). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any restructuring and integration charges which may be incurred in connection with HNH's acquisition of JPS. Any such costs will be expensed as incurred.
