UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On December 31, 2010, Sanders Morris Harris Group Inc. (“SMHG”) completed the previously announced purchase of a 48.7% capital interest and 50.1% profits interest in Global Financial Services, LLC and a 50.1% capital and profits interest in GFS Advisors, LLC, wealth management firms (“GFS”), based in Houston, Texas, pursuant to the terms of a Purchase Agreement dated as of November 26, 2010, among the Company and Robert C.A. Benjamin, Gerardo A. Chapa and Ricardo Perusquia. 

The initial consideration for the purchase was $18 million, paid $15 million in cash and $3 million in shares of SMHG common stock.  The Company issued 476,871 shares of common stock priced at $6.29 per share at closing.

The initial consideration is subject to upward adjustment by a maximum amount of $4.5 million based on GFS achieving earnings before interest and taxes (“EBITDA”) in 2011 and/or 2012 in excess of $5.0 million. The full adjustment of $4.5 million will be payable if GFS’ EBITDA in 2011 and/or 2012 exceeds $5.0 million by $1.4 million and will be adjusted pro rata for an increase of less than $1.4 million. EBITDA in 2012 must exceed the level achieved in 2011 in order for a payment to be earned for 2012 results.  The additional consideration will be paid two-thirds in cash and one-third in SMHG common stock following the receipt of audited financial results for 2011 and 2012.

Additionally, there is further upward adjustment based on the compounded annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of GFS’ EBITDA achieved in 2012, 2013, and 2014 versus the Base Year EBITDA, if such CAGR for any year exceeds minimum thresholds.  “Base Year EBITDA” means the greater EBITDA achieved in either 2011 or 2012, but not less than $5.0 million or more than $6.4 million. A CAGR payment for 2012, 2013, or 2014 will only occur if EBITDA exceeds the Base Year EBITDA by a minimum CAGR of 10%. All CAGR payments will be made 80% in cash and 20% in Company common stock and will be paid following the receipt of audited financial results after the close of each year.  The maximum CAGR adjustment in the initial consideration is approximately $9.6 million if the top tier thresholds are achieved every year.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and explanatory notes illustrate the effect of the GFS purchase and related transactions on SMGH’s financial position and results of operations based upon the companies’ respective historical financial positions and results of operations under the acquisition method of accounting with SMHG treated as the acquirer. Under this method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of GFS will be recorded by SMHG at their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of SMHG and GFS reflects the unaudited condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2010 and the unaudited condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. The condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2010 assumes the acquisition and related transactions took place on that date. The condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and for the year ended December 31, 2009 assume the acquisition and related transactions took place on January 1, 2009.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not indicate the financial results of the combined companies had the companies actually been combined at the beginning of each period presented, nor the impact of possible business model changes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also does not consider any potential impacts of current market conditions on investment income, earnings or cash flows, expense efficiencies, new investments or redeemed investments, and share issuances or repurchases, among other factors.

SANDERS MORRIS HARRIS GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

 
1.
BASIS OF PROFORMA PRESENTATION

 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of Sanders Morris Harris Group Inc., a Texas corporation (“SMHG”) and Global Financial Services, LLC and GFS Advisors, LLC, both Texas limited liability companies (collectively “GFS”) reflects the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010.  SMHG issued 476,871 shares of its common stock priced at $6.29 per share at closing and paid $15.0 million in cash in exchange for 48.7% capital interest and 50.1% profits interest in Global Financial Services, LLC and a 50.1% capital and profits interest in GFS Advisors, LLC, wealth management firms.

The purchase will be accounted for as an acquisition of GFS by SMHG in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting as detailed in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or “ASC”) 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The fair value of the consideration paid is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the date of acquisition. As described in more detail in ASC 805, goodwill, if any, is recognized as of the acquisition date, for the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. If the total acquisition date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred, the excess is recognized as a bargain purchase gain. In connection with the purchase, the estimated fair value of GFS net assets acquired did not exceed the cash and stock consideration issued, resulting in goodwill and other intangible assets being recorded by SMHG as of December 31, 2010, the date of the acquisition.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented in this document is for illustrative purposes only and does not necessarily indicate the results of operations or the combined financial position that would have resulted had the purchase been completed at the beginning of the applicable period presented, nor the impact of possible business model changes as a result of current market conditions which may impact investment income, earnings or cash flows, expense efficiencies, new investments or redeemed investments, share issuances or repurchases and other factors. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not indicative of the results of operations in future periods or the future financial position of the combined company.

PURCHASE ACCOUNTING ALLOCATIONS

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information for the acquisition includes the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2010 assuming the purchase related transactions were completed on September 30, 2010. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2009 were prepared assuming the purchase and related transactions were completed on January 1, 2009.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the issuance of approximately 476,871 shares of SMHG common stock in connection with the purchase.
 
 
 

 

 
The acquisition will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805. Accordingly, SMHG will aggregate the value of the initial cash and stock consideration issued to acquire the controlling financial interest in GFS.
