CF Corp. is a blank check company incorporated on February 26, 2016. CF Corp. consummated its initial public offering of 60,000,000 units for $10.00 per unit on May 25, 2016. On June 29, 2016, CF Corp. consummated the closing of the sale of 9,000,000 additional units pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters’ overallotment option. Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, CF Corp. consummated a private placement to the Sponsor of 14,000,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, generating gross proceeds of $14 million, and simultaneously with the consummation of the exercise of the overallotment option, CF Corp. consummated a private placement to the Sponsor of an additional 1,800,000 warrants, generating gross proceeds of $1.8 million. Upon the closing of the initial public offering, overallotment option and the private placement, $691 million from the net proceeds thereof was placed in a trust account and invested in a money market fund selected by CF Corp. As a special purpose acquisition company, CF Corp.’s purpose is to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Effective May 24, 2017, CF Corp., FGL and FSR reached agreements under which CF Corp. would concurrently acquire all of the outstanding equity of the aforementioned entities pursuant to the Merger Agreement and a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”). On November 30, 2017, CF Corp. completed the business combination and its acquisition of FSR (the “Share Purchase”).

FGL provides its principal life and annuity products through its insurance subsidiaries, FGLIC and Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company of New York. FGL’s customers range across a variety of age groups and are concentrated in the middle-income market. FGL’s fixed indexed annuities provide for pre-retirement wealth accumulation and post-retirement income management. FGL’s life insurance provides wealth protection and transfer opportunities through indexed universal life products. Life and annuity products are primarily distributed through independent marketing organizations and independent insurance agents.

 

FSR provides life and annuity reinsurance services, such as reinsurance on asset intensive, long duration life and annuity liabilities.

 

CF Corp. acquired FGL in exchange for cash consideration of $31.10 per share of FGL common stock totaling approximately $1.8 billion CF Corp. concurrently acquired FSR for cash consideration of $65 million, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, HRG, FS Holdco, CF Corp. and FGL US Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and Parent agreed that FS Holdco may, at its option, cause Parent and FS Holdco to make a joint election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code with respect to the business combination and the deemed share purchases of FGL’s subsidiaries. If FS Holdco opts to make such an election, it will be required to pay Parent $30 million, plus additional specified amounts determined by reference to FGL’s incremental current tax costs attributable to the election, if any, and Parent will be required to pay FS Holdco additional specified amounts determined by reference to FGL’s incremental current tax savings attributable to the election, if any.

 

Consideration for the business combination and the Share Purchase were funded through the following sources and transactions (collectively the “Financing” and collectively with the business combination and the Share Purchase, the “Transactions”):

 

·Investments and cash equivalents held in the trust account of up to $694 million related to CF Corp.’s initial public offering of Class A ordinary shares. The proceeds will become available upon consummation of the business combination;

 

·The sale of 51,000,000 ordinary shares to anchor investors pursuant to the forward purchase agreements, resulting in gross proceeds of  $510 million;

 

·The sale of 36,000,000 ordinary shares pursuant to certain equity commitment letters, resulting in gross proceeds of  $360 million;

 

·The sale of 20,000,000 ordinary shares in connection with the rights of first offer contained in the forward purchase agreements, resulting in gross proceeds of  $200 million; and

 

·The sale of Series A and Series B Redeemable Preferred Shares of CF Corp. and 8,370,000 ordinary shares to GSO and FNF or their respective designees resulting in gross proceeds of $375 million. The preferred shares carry a paid-in-kind dividend option at the Combined Company’s election. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the payment of such in-kind dividends due to management’s discretion on exercising said option.

 

The business combination and Share Purchase were accounted for under the scope of ASC 805. Pursuant to ASC 805, CF Corp. was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

 

·CF Corp. paid cash consideration for all of the equity in FGL and FSR; and

 

·The existing shareholders of CF Corp. and new shareholders in CF Corp. retained all of the voting rights in the Combined Company.

 

The evidence discussed above supports the conclusion that CF Corp. is the accounting acquirer in each of the business combination and Share Purchase.

 

Each of FGL and FSR constitutes a business, with inputs, processes, and outputs. Accordingly, each of the business combination and Share Purchase constitutes the acquisition of a business for purposes of ASC 805, and due to the changes in control from the business combination and Share Purchase, are accounted for using the acquisition method.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

1.Description of each of the business combination and Share Purchase and Basis of Presentation

 

Description of each of the business combination and Share Purchase

 

Effective May 24, 2017, CF Corp., FGL and FSR reached agreements under which CF Corp. would concurrently acquire all of the outstanding equity of the aforementioned entities pursuant to the business combination and Share Purchase. On November 30, 2017, CF Corp. completed its acquisitions of FGL and FSR.

 

FGL provides its principal life and annuity products through its insurance subsidiaries, FGLIC and Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company of New York. FGL’s customers range across a variety of age groups and are concentrated in the middle-income market. FGL’s fixed indexed annuities provide for pre-retirement wealth accumulation and post-retirement income management. FGL’s life insurance provides wealth protection and transfer opportunities through indexed universal life products. Life and annuity products are primarily distributed through independent marketing organizations and independent insurance agents.

 

FSR provides life and annuity reinsurance services, such as reinsurance on asset intensive, long duration life and annuity liabilities.

 

CF Corp. acquired FGL in exchange for cash consideration of $31.10 per share of FGL common stock totaling approximately $1.8 billion. CF Corp. concurrently acquired FSR for cash consideration of $65 million, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, HRG, FS Holdco, CF Corp. and Parent agreed that FS Holdco may, at its option, cause Parent and FS Holdco to make a joint election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code with respect to the business combination and the deemed share purchases of FGL’s subsidiaries. If FS Holdco opts to make such an election, it will be required to pay Parent $30 million, plus additional specified amounts determined by reference to FGL’s incremental current tax costs attributable to the election, if any, and Parent will be required to pay FS Holdco additional specified amounts determined by reference to FGL’s incremental current tax savings attributable to the election, if any.

 

Consideration for the business combination and Share Purchase was funded through the following sources and transactions:

 

·Investments and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account of up to $694 million related to CF Corp.’s initial public offering of Class A ordinary shares. The proceeds will become available upon consummation of the business combination;

 

·The sale of 51,000,000 ordinary shares pursuant to the forward purchase agreements, resulting in gross proceeds of  $510 million;

 

·The sale of 36,000,000 ordinary shares pursuant to certain equity commitment letters, resulting in gross proceeds of  $360 million;

 

·The sale of 20,000,000 ordinary shares in connection with the rights of first offer contained in the forward purchase agreements, resulting in gross proceeds of  $200 million; and

 

·The sale of Series A and Series B Redeemable Preferred Shares of CF Corp. and 8,370,000 common shares to GSO and FNF or their respective designees resulting in gross proceeds of $375 million. The preferred shares carry a paid-in-kind dividend option at the Combined Company’s election. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the payment of such in-kind dividends due to management’s discretion on exercising said option.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Each of FGL and FSR constitutes a business, with inputs, processes, and outputs. Accordingly, each of the business combination and Share Purchase constitutes the acquisition of a business for purposes of ASC 805, and due to the changes in control from the business combination and Share Purchase, are accounted for using the acquisition method.

 

Under the acquisition method, the acquisition date fair value of the gross consideration paid by CF Corp. to effect each of the business combination and Share Purchase was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, as described in Note 5 below. Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in determining the preliminary allocation of the gross consideration transferred in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded, including the determination of any goodwill or bargain purchase gain recorded as a result of the business combination or Share Purchase, may differ materially from the information presented.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings, or cost savings that may be associated with the business combination and Share Purchase.

 

 6 

 

  

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the business combination and Share Purchase are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that CF Corp. believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments may be revised as additional information becomes available and alternative valuation methodologies are evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments and it is possible the difference may be material. CF Corp. believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the business combination and Share Purchase contemplated based on information available to management at the time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the business combination and Share Purchase taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Combined Company. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of CF Corp., FGL and FSR.

 

2.Accounting Policies

 

Upon consummation of each of the business combination and Share Purchase, CF Corp. will perform a comprehensive review of FGL’s and FSR’s accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of FGL and FSR which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the Combined Company. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

 

3.Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Transactions and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

 

The pro forma combined consolidated provision for income taxes does not necessarily reflect the amounts that would have resulted had the Combined Company filed consolidated income tax returns during the periods presented.

 

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statements of operations are based upon the number of CF Corp.’s shares outstanding, assuming the Transactions occurred on January 1, 2016.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

 

The purchase accounting adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2017 are as follows:

 

(a)Represents the use of the consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the Share Purchase Agreement to purchase all of the outstanding equity ownership of FGL and FSR.

 

   (in millions except share
and per share data)
 
Shares of FGL common stock outstanding as of the Merger Agreement   58,933,415 
Cash consideration per share to FGL common stockholders  $31.10 
Estimated cash consideration to FGL common stockholders  $1,833 
Estimated cash consideration for FGL outstanding stock-based compensation awards   4(1)
Estimated total consideration for FGL   1,837 
Estimated total consideration for FSR   65 
Total estimated consideration  $1,902 

 

(1)Excludes amounts paid to redeem certain of FGL’s outstanding unvested stock-based compensation awards as of the date of the Merger Agreement which were determined to relate to post-business combination service periods and will be expensed in CF Corp.’s post-business combination financial statements. Amounts related to FGL’s outstanding unvested stock-based compensation awards were allocated between business combination consideration and post-business combination stock-based compensation expense based on an analysis of the total and remaining service periods related to the settled awards. Amounts related to post-business combination service periods were excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations as they were determined not to have a continuing effect. This allocation has been performed assuming the business combination occurred on September 30, 2017 and is expected to change based on the actual business combination date.

 

(b)Reflects the acquisition method of accounting based on the estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities of FGL and FSR as discussed in Note 5 below. FSR’s assets and liabilities are primarily reported at their fair values and no material adjustments to its tangible net assets have been currently identified. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to FGL and FSR exceeded the attributable consideration related to the business combination and Share Purchase. Therefore, bargain purchase gains of $24 million and $39 million, respectively, have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. This gain has been excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations as it was determined to not have a continuing effect. Additional information regarding the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired and the tax effect of the purchase accounting is discussed below.

 

   FGL   FSR   Total 
   (in millions) 
Commercial mortgage loans – carrying value  $547   $   $547

Reinsurance recoverables – fair value   3,415        3,415 
Net purchase accounting adjustment  $40       $40 
                
Intangibles, net – carrying value  $1,129   $   $1,129 
Intangibles, net – fair value   1,382        1,382 
Net purchase accounting adjustment(3)  $253   $   $253

(1)Related to policy loans held within other investments.

 

 8 

 

  

(2)Related to elimination of leasehold improvements and certain fixed assets that are written off due to no ascribed value.

 

(3)Reflects the elimination of FGL’s historical Deferred Acquisition Cost (“DAC”) ($1.1 billion) balance as well as recognition of new Value of Business Acquired (“VOBA”) resulting from the acquisition ($1.3 billion) and other intangible assets ($71 million) as further described below. The VOBA, when combined with the carrying value of the insurance liabilities, produces a fair value of those liabilities. VOBA is based on actuarially determined projections, by each line of business, of future policy and contract charges, premiums, mortality and morbidity, separate account performance, surrenders, operating expenses, investment returns and other factors. Actual experience of the purchased business may vary from these projections. VOBA is amortized in relation to estimated gross profits or premiums, depending on product type. For interest-sensitive products, if estimated gross profits differ from expectations, the amortization of VOBA will be adjusted to reflect actual experience. The net adjustment to amortization as a result of eliminating the historical DAC and VOBA is included in adjustment (aa).

 

(4)Adjustment to record contractholder funds at fair value.

 

(5)Reflects the elimination of deferred reinsurance revenue.

 

(c)The following intercompany eliminations between FGL and FSR related to reinsurance ceded by FGL and assumed by FSR upon consolidation by CF Corp. are reflected in these adjustments:

Other assets(1)   (103)
      
Liabilities     
Funds withheld for reinsurance liabilities   (1,081)
Insurance reserves   (976)

 

(1)Reflects elimination of a funds withheld asset embedded derivative resulting from the reinsurance treaty between FGL and FSR.

 

(d)Represents adjustments to reflect the deferred tax impact of purchase accounting adjustments, resulting in the reversal of FGL’s historical deferred tax liability and the recording of net deferred tax liabilities of  $35 million and none for FGL and FSR, respectively, based on a 35% effective tax rate.

(1)The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to FGL and FSR exceeded the attributable consideration related to the business combination and Share Purchase. Therefore, bargain purchase gains of $24 million and $39 million, respectively, have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. This gain has been excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations as it was determined to not have a continuing effect.

Intangible assets were identified that met either the separability criterion or the contractual-legal criterion described in ASC 805. The distribution network intangible asset represents the value of FGL’s existing distribution network, which was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method based on preliminary forecasts for FGL. The trade name intangible asset represents the Fidelity & Guaranty Life trade name which was valued using the relief-from-royalty method giving consideration to publicly available third-party trade name royalty rates as well as expectations for expected premiums over the anticipated life of the asset. The licenses, which represent FGL’s jurisdictional insurance licenses, were valued using the market approach based on third-party market transactions from which the prices paid for state insurance licenses could be derived. In addition to VOBA recognized on the acquisition ($1.3 billion), described above, the preliminary allocation to other intangible assets is as follows:

 

Intangible assets

 

   Fair Value    
   FGL   FSR   Total   Useful Life
   (in millions)    
Distribution channels  $44   $   $44   20 years
Trade names   20        20   10 years
