American Tire Distributors Holdings, Inc.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

On November 30, 2012, American Tire Distributors, Inc. (“ATDI”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of American Tire Distributors Holdings, Inc (“Holdings” or the “Company”), and ATD Acquisition Co. V Inc. (“Canada Acquisition”), a newly-formed direct wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary of ATDI, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with 1278104 Alberta Inc. (“Seller”), Triwest Trading (Canada) Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller (“Triwest”) and certain shareholders of Seller pursuant to which Canada Acquisition agreed to acquire from Seller all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Triwest along with an outstanding loan owed to Seller by Triwest (the “Acquisition”) for approximately $97.5 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments, including, but not limited to, working capital adjustments. As a result of the Acquisition, Triwest became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Canada Acquisition. Triwest (dba: TriCan Tire Distibutors) is a wholesale distributor of tires, tire parts, tire accessories and related equipment in Canada with 15 distribution centers stretching across the country.

The Acquisition was completed on November 30, 2012 and funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. Prior to the closing of the Acquisition, Holdings received a cash contribution of $60.0 million from its parent, which it used to reduce amounts then outstanding under its ABL Facility. The cash contribution was funded from the proceeds of the sale by Accelerate Parent Corp., Holdings’ indirect parent, of common stock to affiliates of TPG Capital L.P. and certain co-investors.

In connection with the Acquisition, on November 30, 2012, Holdings amended and restated its ABL Facility (as amended and restated, the “Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) in order to provide for borrowings under the agreement by Canada Acquisition (the “Canadian Tranche”). The Canadian Tranche provides for revolving loans available only to Canada Acquisition in an aggregate amount equal to $60.0 million, subject to a Canadian borrowing base. The maturity date for the Canadian Tranche is November 16, 2017, or March 1, 2017, as determined by the outstanding aggregate principal amount of ATDI’s Senior Secured Notes on March 1, 2017. Holdings is a guarantor of Canada Acquisition’s obligations under the Canadian Tranche.

The Company’s fiscal year is based on either a 52- or 53 week period ending on the Saturday closest to each December 31. Triwest’s fiscal year ends on December 31. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements herein are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and Triwest and have been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 29, 2012 gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on September 29, 2012, and includes only factually supportable adjustments that are directly attributable to the Acquisition regardless of whether they have a continuing impact or are nonrecurring. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 29, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 2, 2011 (the first day of the Company’s 2011 fiscal year), and includes only factually supportable adjustments that are directly attributable to the Acquisition and expected to have a continuing effect.

The Acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with current accounting guidance for business combinations and non-controlling interest. As a result, the total purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Triwest based on their estimated fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. If the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the fair value of the purchase price, a bargain purchase gain has occurred which is recognized in earnings on the Acquisition date. The preliminary allocation reflects management’s best estimates of fair value, which are based on key assumptions of the Acquisition, including prior acquisition experience, benchmarking of similar acquisitions and historical data. In addition, portions of the preliminary allocation are dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have yet to commence or progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measurement. Upon completion of detailed valuation studies and the final determination of fair value, the Company may make additional adjustments to the fair value allocation, which may differ significantly from the valuations set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are based on estimates and assumptions, which have been made solely for the purposes of developing such pro forma information. Pro forma adjustments arising from the Acquisition are derived from the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed included in the preliminary purchase price allocation. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations also include certain purchase accounting adjustments such as increased amortization expense on acquired intangible assets, changes in interest expense on the debt incurred to complete the Acquisition and debt repaid as part of the Acquisition as well as the tax impacts related to these adjustments. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

1. Description of Transaction

On November 30, 2012, American Tire Distributors, Inc. (“ATDI”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of American Tire Distributors Holdings, Inc (“Holdings” or the “Company”), and ATD Acquisition Co. V Inc. (“Canada Acquisition”), a newly-formed direct wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary of ATDI, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with 1278104 Alberta Inc. (“Seller”), Triwest Trading (Canada) Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller (“Triwest”) and certain shareholders of Seller pursuant to which Canada Acquisition agreed to acquire from Seller all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Triwest along with an outstanding loan owed to Seller by Triwest (the “Acquisition”) for approximately $97.5 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments, including, but not limited to, working capital adjustments. As a result of the Acquisition, Triwest became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Canada Acquisition. Triwest (dba: TriCan Tire Distibutors) is a wholesale distributor of tires, tire parts, tire accessories and related equipment in Canada with 15 distribution centers stretching across the country.

The Acquisition was completed on November 30, 2012 and funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. Prior to the closing of the Acquisition, Holdings received a cash contribution of $60.0 million from its parent, which it used to reduce amounts then outstanding under its ABL Facility. The cash contribution was funded from the proceeds of the sale by Accelerate Parent Corp., Holdings’ indirect parent, of common stock to affiliates of TPG Capital L.P. and certain co-investors.

In connection with the Acquisition, on November 30, 2012, Holdings amended and restated its ABL Facility (as amended and restated, the “Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) in order to provide for borrowings under the agreement by Canada Acquisition (the “Canadian Tranche”). The Canadian Tranche provides for revolving loans available only to Canada Acquisition in an aggregate amount equal to $60.0 million, subject to a Canadian borrowing base. The maturity date for the Canadian Tranche is November 16, 2017, or March 1, 2017, as determined by the outstanding aggregate principal amount of ATDI’s Senior Secured Notes on March 1, 2017. Holdings is a guarantor of Canada Acquisition’s obligations under the Canadian Tranche.

 

2. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements herein are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and Triwest and have been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 29, 2012 gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on September 29, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 29, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 2, 2011 (the first day of the Company’s 2011 fiscal year). Certain amounts in the Triwest consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s basis of presentation.

The historical financial statements of Triwest have been prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises (“Canadian GAAP”). Any measurement differences in accounting principles between Canadian GAAP and U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as they apply to Triwest are not material. In addition, Triwest has historically reported its financial statements in its local currency, the Canadian dollar. In order to present the pro forma condensed combined financial statements in U.S. dollars, Triwest’s balance sheet has been translated using the spot rate on September 29, 2012 (1.0165), and each of Triwest’s statements of operations have been translated using the average rate for the applicable period (1.0000 for the nine months ended September 29, 2012 and 1.0127 for the year ended December 31, 2011).

3. Preliminary Estimated Purchase Price Allocation

The Acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with current accounting guidance for business combinations and non-controlling interest. As a result, the total purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Triwest based on their estimated fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. If the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the fair value of the purchase price, a bargain purchase gain has occurred which is recognized in earnings on the Acquisition date. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price, as if the Acquisition occurred on September 29, 2012, is as follows:

4. Pro Forma Adjustments

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments

The following is a summary of pro forma adjustments reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet. These adjustments are based on preliminary estimates, which may change as additional information is obtained:

 

  (A) Reflects a portion of the purchase price held in escrow that has been excluded from the allocation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as it represents contingent consideration for which the contingency has not been resolved. The contingency relates to working capital adjustments.

 

  (B) Reflects an adjustment to Triwest’s inventory to its estimated fair market value, which is the estimated selling price less the sum of (a) costs of disposal and (b) a reasonable profit margin for completing the selling effort.

 

  (C) Reflects a decrease in deferred tax assets related to the increase in the value of Triwest’s inventory and an increase in deferred tax liabilities related to the preliminary estimated fair market value of Triwest’s customer list intangible asset assuming an effective tax rate of 28.0%.

 

  (D) Based upon a preliminary valuation analysis, for the purpose of these pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the Company identified a finite-lived customer list intangible asset with an estimated fair value of $63.0 million at the Acquisition date. The preliminary fair value has been estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value.

 

7


  (E) Reflects the capitalization of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the Canadian Tranche. These costs are deferred and recognized over the term of the facility.

 

  (F) Reflects the elimination of Triwest’s debt and amount due to the prior shareholder. These amounts were paid off in connection with the Acquisition.

 

  (G) As of the Acquisition date, the Company increased its outstanding balance under its ABL Facility by $40.7 million. A reconciliation of the components is as follows:

  (H) Reflects a cash contribution of $60.0 million from TPG Capital L.P. (“TPG”) and certain co-investors through the purchase of common stock in Accelerate Parent Corp., Holdings indirect parent company. TPG is a leading global private investment firm who, together with certain co-investors, indirectly owns 100% of the Company’s common stock.

 

  (I) Represents the elimination of the separate components of Triwest’s historical stockholders’ equity.

 

  (J) Reflects the payment of transaction costs related to the Acquisition, which were funded by the Company’s U.S. ABL Facility. The impact of the transaction costs have not been reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations since these costs are expected to be nonrecurring in nature.

 

  (K) Reflects the estimated gain on bargain purchase (See Note 3).

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations Adjustments

The following is a summary of pro forma adjustments reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations. These adjustments are based on preliminary estimates, which may change as additional information is obtained:

 

  (L) Represents the estimated amortization of the finite-lived customer list intangible asset, discussed in (D) above, based upon the preliminary valuation and estimated useful life of 19 years. The estimated useful life has been determined based upon various accounting studies, historical acquisition experience, economic factors and future cash flows.

 

  (M) Represents the reversal of interest expense recognized by Triwest related to debt that was paid-off in conjunction with the Acquisition.

 

  (N) Represents the estimated increase in interest expense associated with incremental borrowings incurred on the Company’s ABL Facility to finance the Acquisition. The Company used the weighted-average interest rates for the respective periods (3.47% for the nine months ended September 29, 2012 and 2.74% for the year ended December 31, 2011). In addition, the amortization of deferred financing costs was included to determine the total increase in interest expense.

 

  (O) For purposes of the pro forma financial statements, the statutory rate of the applicable local jurisdiction of 28.0% has been used for all periods presented to calculate the tax effect associated with the pro forma adjustments. These rates are estimates and do not take into account future tax strategies that may apply to the entire Company.
