The Company is not currently required to file on a Current Report on Form 8-K the historical financial statements of the Acquired Business pursuant to Article 3-05 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Regulation S-X”), or furnish pro forma financial information giving effect to the Acquisition pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X or Rule 8-05 of Regulation S-X. Nonetheless, the Company is filing such historical financial statements and such pro forma financial information to aid investor understanding, and such data is expected to be incorporated by reference into one or more registration statements filed or to be filed by the Company.
The audited annual combined financial statements of the Acquired Business as of September 30, 2017 and 2016 and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017, 2016 and 2015, and the notes related thereto, as well as the unaudited interim combined financial statements of the Acquired Business as of April 1, 2018 and for the six month periods ended April 1, 2018 and April 2, 2017, and the notes related thereto, are filed as Exhibits 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of the Company as of March 31, 2018, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of earnings of the Company for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 and for the six month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, in each case giving effect to the Acquisition, are filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
