Exhibit 99.5

Polymer Group, Inc.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

On November 15, 2013, the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Fiberweb plc (now known as Fiberweb Limited, “Fiberweb”) pursuant to a court sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the UK Companies Act of 2006 by PGI Acquisition Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Polymer Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “PGI”), became effective. The consideration for the Acquisition of 102 pence per share, or approximately $287.8 million, was paid to Fiberweb shareholders on November 27, 2013. The Company funded the Acquisition with the proceeds of borrowings under a $268.0 million Senior Secured Bridge Credit Agreement and a $50.0 million Senior Unsecured Bridge Credit Agreement (together, the “Bridge Facilities”). As a result of the Acquisition, Fiberweb became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Fiberweb is one of the largest global manufacturers of specialized technical fabrics with eight production sites in six countries. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information herein is based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and Fiberweb and has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Acquisition.

The Company’s fiscal year is based on either a 52- or 53 week period ending on the Saturday closest to each December 31. Fiberweb’s fiscal year ends on December 31. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 28, 2013 (the end of the Company’s third fiscal quarter) gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on September 28, 2013, 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 28, 2013, the nine months ended September 29, 2012 and the year ended December 29, 2012 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2012 (the first day of the Company’s 2012 fiscal year), and includes only factually supportable adjustments that are directly attributable to the Acquisition and expected to have a continuing effect. Fiberweb’s third fiscal quarter ends on September 30, 2013.

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 Fiberweb 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. 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 information.

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 depreciation and amortization expense on acquired tangible and intangible assets, increased interest expense on the debt incurred to complete 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.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for information purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the combined company’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the Acquisition been completed as of the dates indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future operating results or financial position of the combined company. As a result, they do not reflect future events that may occur after the Acquisition, including the potential realization of any cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies, restructuring or any other costs relating to the integration of the two companies. Therefore, the actual amounts recorded as of date of acquisition and thereafter may differ from the information presented herein.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information herein is based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of PGI and Fiberweb and have been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Acquisition, pursuant to which Fiberweb became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PGI. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 28, 2013 gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on September 28, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 28, 2013, the nine months ended September 29, 2012 and the year ended December 29, 2012 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2012. Certain amounts in the Fiberweb consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s basis of presentation.

The historical financial statements of Fiberweb have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Any measurement differences in accounting principles between IFRS and U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) as they apply to Fiberweb have been adjusted to reflect results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjustments have also been made to conform Fiberweb’s accounting policies to the Company’s. In addition, Fiberweb has historically reported its financial information in its local currency, British pounds sterling (“GBP“or £). In order to present the pro forma condensed combined financial statements in U.S. dollars, Fiberweb’s balance sheet data have been translated using the spot rate on September 28, 2013, and Fiberweb’s statement of operations data have been translated using the average rate for the applicable period.

Note 2. 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 Fiberweb 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.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price, as if the Acquisition occurred on September 28, 2013, is as follows:

Note 3. 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) At acquisition, assets and liabilities of an acquired business are to be recognized at fair value. Accounts receivable are valued under an “in use” premise where a market participant would acquire the business and collect the accounts receivables in the normal course of business assuming their highest and best use. Therefore, the Company estimated that the current value of Fiberweb’s accounts receivables reflects their fair value as of the date of acquisition.

 

  (b) At acquisition, assets and liabilities of an acquired business are to be recognized at fair value. Inventory is valued at net realizable value which is the estimated selling price, less the sum of (a) cost of disposal and (b) a reasonable profit margin for the selling effort. The Company estimated that the current value of Fiberweb’s inventory reflects their fair value as of the date of acquisition which is subject to change as additional information is obtained.

 

  (c) At acquisition, property, plant and equipment is required to be measured at fair value. Based upon a preliminary valuation analysis, for the purpose of these pro forma condensed combined financial information, the estimated fair value of acquired property, plant and equipment of Fiberweb was $174.1 million. The preliminary fair value has been estimated using the cost approach in which the concept of replacement is used as an indicator of fair value. As a result, the Company recorded a $15.3 million adjustment to property, plant and equipment to reflect the fair value adjustment as of the date of acquisition.

 

  (d) Represents the elimination of Fiberweb’s pre-acquisition goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets of $31.2 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

 

  (e) Represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

 

  (f) Based upon a preliminary valuation analysis, for the purpose of these pro forma condensed combined financial information, the Company identified finite-lived intangible assets with an estimated fair value of $91.0 million at the acquisition date. In addition, the Company allocated $2.0 million to an infinite-lived intangible asset. The preliminary fair values have been estimated based on an income approach methodology using the multi-period excess earnings method and the relief-from-royalty method, respectively. The Company also acquired $7.6 million of Fiberweb’s previously identified intangible assets at their current value, which approximated fair value as of the date of acquisition.

 

  (g) Reflects the capitalization of $14.9 million of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the Bridge Facilities. These costs are deferred and recognized over the respective term of each facility.

 

  (h) On November 27, 2013, we borrowed $316.3 million under the Bridge Facilities. These amounts are recorded under Long-term debt in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheets as the Bridge Facilities have a final maturity date of February 1, 2019. A reconciliation of the components is as follows:

 

In thousands

   Increase /
(Decrease)
 

Purchase of Fiberweb

   $ 287,762   

Debt issuance costs

     14,947   

Transaction costs

     13,611   
  

 

 

 

Net adjustment

   $ 316,320   
  

 

 

 

The impact of the transaction costs has not been reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations since these costs are expected to be nonrecurring in nature.

 

  (i) Reflects the elimination of the separate components of Fiberweb’s historical stockholders’ equity.

 

  (j) Reflects an adjustment to deferred taxes associated with the preliminary valuation analysis of intangible assets assuming an estimated effective tax rate of 37.7% (the Company’s combined U.S. Federal and State statutory tax rate).

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:

 

  (a) Reflects the increase in depreciation expense as a result of the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to Fiberweb’s property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful life of the property, plant and equipment is considered to be an average of 10 years. The estimated useful lives have been determined based upon various accounting studies, historical acquisition experience, economic factors and future cash flows.

 

7


  (b) Reflects the increase in amortization expense as a result of the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the creation of the finite-lived intangible assets. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets is considered to be 15 years, except for a trade name with an estimated 5 year life. The estimated useful lives have been determined based upon various accounting studies, historical acquisition experience, economic factors and future cash flows. The adjustment is net of historical amounts recorded for previously acquired intangible assets recorded by Fiberweb that have been eliminated due to the Acquisition.

 

  (c) Represents the estimated increase in interest expense associated with borrowings incurred under the Company’s Bridge Facilities to finance the Acquisition. The Company used the weighted average interest rates for the respective periods. In addition, the amortization of deferred financing costs was included to determine the total increase in interest expense.

 

  (d) For purposes of the condensed combined pro forma financial information, the combined U.S. Federal and State statutory tax rate of 37.7% has been used for all periods presented to calculate the tax effect associated with the pro forma adjustments. The rate is an estimate and does not take into account future tax strategies that may apply to the entire Company.

    The Company has adjusted Property, plant and equipment for a transaction recorded as a sale/leaseback under IFRS. Due to continuing involvement with the property, the Company has recognized the asset and a related financing obligation in accordance with GAAP.

 

    The Company has adjusted Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for amounts related to defined benefit plans. Under IFRS, actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the statement of operations, whereas these amounts are deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) using a corridor approach under GAAP.

 

    Under IFRS, all deferred taxes are recorded as noncurrent amounts. Under GAAP, deferred tax assets and liabilities must be classified as either current or noncurrent, governed by the classification of the related asset or liability that gives rise to the tax asset or liability. As a result, the Company has made appropriate reclassifications to properly present deferred tax amounts under GAAP.

 

    The Company has made adjustments to conform Fiberweb’s accounting policies to the Company’s. Areas include capitalization thresholds for expenditures, alignment of inventory and bad debt reserves as well as accounting for spare parts inventory.

 

    For purposes of the conforming adjustments included in the above IFRS to GAAP reconciliation, the combined U.S. Federal and State statutory tax rate of 37.7% has been used to calculate any necessary tax effects associated with these adjustments. The rate is an estimate and does not take into account future tax strategies that may apply to the entire Company.

    Historical financial information of Fiberweb has been translated to U.S. Dollars using the weighted-average rate for the respective period. For the nine months ended September 28, 2013, the weighted-average rate was 1.55 GBP to 1.00 U.S. Dollar.

    The Company has adjusted Property, plant and equipment for a transaction recorded as a sale/leaseback under IFRS. Due to continuing involvement with the property, the Company has recognized the asset and a related financing obligation in accordance with GAAP. Related impacts to the Statement of Operations are included in Cost of goods sold and Interest expense.

 

    The Company has adjusted Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for amounts related to defined benefit plans. Under IFRS, actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the statement of operations, whereas these amounts are deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) using a corridor approach under GAAP.

 

    The Company has made balance sheet adjustments to conform Fiberweb’s accounting policies to the Company’s. Areas include capitalization thresholds for expenditures, alignment of inventory and bad debt reserves as well as accounting for spare parts inventory. Related adjustments impact the Statement of Operations in various accounts.

 

    During the nine months ended September 28, 2013, the Company adjusted Special charges, net to reverse a $33.9 million goodwill impairment charge recorded by Fiberweb in accordance with IFRS. Under GAAP, an impairment charge would not have been recognized.

 

    For purposes of the conforming adjustments included in the above IFRS to GAAP reconciliation, the combined U.S. Federal and State statutory tax rate of 37.7% has been used to calculate any necessary tax effects associated with these adjustments. The rate is an estimate and does not take into account future tax strategies that may apply to the entire Company.
