Exhibit 99.3

 

B&G Foods, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements

 

On November 2, 2015, pursuant to an agreement entered into on September 2, 2015, B&G Foods, Inc. and its subsidiaries completed the acquisition of the Green Giant and Le Sueur shelf-stable and frozen vegetable business from General Mills, Inc. and certain of its affiliates, for $765.0 million in cash plus an inventory adjustment at closing of $57.7 million.  We refer to this acquisition as the Green Giant acquisition and the Green Giant and Le Sueur shelf-stable and frozen vegetable business as the Green Giant business.  In connection with the Green Giant acquisition, we amended and restated our senior secured credit agreement.  Among other things, the amendment provided for an incremental $750.0 million tranche B term loan facility, the net proceeds of which we used to finance a portion of the purchase price for the Green Giant acquisition.  We used revolving loan borrowings under the amended and restated credit agreement and cash on hand to fund the remainder of the purchase price and pay related transaction fees and expenses.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet at October 3, 2015 combines our historical consolidated balance sheet at October 3, 2015 with the statement of assets acquired of the Green Giant business at August 29, 2015, and gives effect to the Green Giant acquisition and related financing as if such transactions occurred on October 3, 2015.  The inventory of the Green Giant business fluctuates with the production cycle driven by the timing of vegetable harvests, and as a result the inventory at November 2, 2015 was greater than the historical period for the Green Giant business presented in the unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet below.  As a result, the goodwill reflected in this pro forma presentation is greater than we anticipate it will be when we complete our initial opening balance sheet in connection with the preparation of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2016.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the three quarters ended October 3, 2015 and the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 combines our historical consolidated statements of operations for the periods then ended with the statements of net revenues and direct expenses of the Green Giant business for the three quarters ended August 30, 2015 and its four quarter period ended February 28, 2015, respectively, and gives effect to the Green Giant acquisition and related financing as if such transactions occurred on January 3, 2015.  General Mills has a May fiscal year end.  These periods were presented to comply with Item 9.01(b) reporting rules when an acquired business has a different fiscal year than the acquiring company.  The fiscal quarter for the Green Giant business ended February 28, 2015 is repeated and presented in both operating periods.  Net sales in that fiscal quarter totaled approximately $144 million.  In the fiscal quarter for the Green Giant business ended May 30, 2015, General Mills recorded an impairment charge of $260 million related to certain intangibles assets, which is reflected on the historical financial statements for the Green Giant business.  The charge is therefore included in our pro forma results of operations for the three quarters ended October 3, 2015.  The impact of the reversal of the inventory step up to be recorded in our acquisition accounting is not reflected in our pro forma results of operations because it is directly related to the acquisition and is non-recurring.  It will, however, be recorded in our actual results of operations in the period following the acquisition closing date based on estimated inventory turnover for the Green Giant business.

 

The Green Giant acquisition has been accounted for by the acquisition method of accounting.  The pro forma combined financial information sets forth the preliminary allocation of the purchase price for the Green Giant acquisition based upon the estimated fair value of the assets acquired at the date of acquisition using available information.  The preliminary purchase price allocation may be adjusted as a result of the finalization of our purchase price allocation procedures.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information set forth below reflects pro forma adjustments that are based upon available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable.  The unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not purport to represent our results of operations or financial position that would have resulted had the Green Giant acquisition and related financing transaction to which pro forma effect is given been consummated as of the dates indicated.

 



 

Additionally, the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations should not be considered indicative of expected future results.  Furthermore, no effect has been given in the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for synergistic benefits that may be realized through the combination of B&G Foods and the Green Giant business or the costs that will be incurred in integrating the operations of the Green Giant business.

 

On July 10, 2015, we acquired Spartan Foods of America, Inc. dba Mama Mary’s and related entities from Linsalata Capital Partners and certain other sellers for a purchase price of $51.0 million in cash.  We refer to this acquisition as the Mama Mary’s acquisition.  The Mama Mary’s acquisition was not deemed to be material at that time and therefore, no estimated impact of the acquired business before the closing date has been added to the pro forma statement of operations data presented in this Exhibit 99.3.  Actual results for the Mama Mary’s business are included in the actual results of B&G Foods since that closing date of that acquisition.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the notes thereto for B&G Foods that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Year Ended January 3, 2015 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 4, 2015, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended October 3, 2015 filed with the SEC on October 30, 2015, and the historical financial statements of the Green Giant business that are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on January 19, 2016.

agreement.  Among other things, the amendment provided for an incremental $750.0 million tranche B term loan facility, which was funded on November 2, 2015 and the net proceeds of which we used to finance a portion of the purchase price for the Green Giant acquisition.  We used revolving loan borrowings under the amended and restated credit agreement and cash on hand to fund the remainder of the purchase price and pay related transaction fees and expenses.

 

The tranche B term loans mature on November 2, 2022 and are subject to amortization at the rate of 1% per year with the balance due and payable on the maturity date.  Interest under the tranche B term loan facility is determined based on alternative rates that we may choose in accordance with the amended and restated credit agreement, including a base rate per annum plus an applicable margin of 2.00%, and LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.00%.

 

Interest under the revolving credit facility is determined based on alternative rates that we may choose in accordance with the amended and restated credit agreement, including a base rate per annum plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.00%, and LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.00%, in each case depending on our consolidated leverage ratio.  At October 3, 2015, the revolving credit facility interest rate was approximately 2.21%.

 

If the interest rates were to increase or decrease by 0.125% from the rates assumed in the table above, pro forma interest expense would change by approximately $9.9 million for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 and $7.5 million for the three quarters ended October 3, 2015.

 

(9)                                 Adjustment to reflect income tax expense on the results of operations of the Green Giant business and the pro forma adjustments for the year ended January 3, 2015 and three quarters ended October 3, 2015 using estimated statutory income tax rates of 36.0% (federal and state) for both periods.  Income tax expense was not allocated to the Green Giant business in the pre-acquisition statements of net revenues and direct expenses.
