On August 13, 2014, Vista Outdoor Inc. ("Vista Outdoor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alliant Techsystems Inc. ("ATK"), filed an initial Form 10 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The filing was made in connection with ATK's previously announced plan to spin-off its Sporting Group business through the distribution of all the shares of common stock of Vista Outdoor to ATK stockholders. Vista Outdoor's initial Form 10 registration statement includes audited financial statements of Vista Outdoor for the three years ended March 31, 2014 and Bushnell Group Holdings, Inc. ("Bushnell") for the ten months ended October 31, 2013 and the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 (the "Bushnell Financial Statements"). The Bushnell Financial Statements are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Bushnell was acquired by ATK on November 1, 2013 and will be a subsidiary of Vista Outdoor after the spin-off is complete. In connection with preparing the Bushnell Financial Statements, ATK made adjustments to the financial information as previously consolidated into the financial statements of MidOcean Bushnell Holdings, L.P. for the year ended December 31, 2012, which MidOcean Bushnell Holdings, L.P. financial statements were previously filed by ATK on a Current Report on Form 8-K on November 4, 2013. See Note 2 to the Bushnell Financial Statements for a description of these adjustments for periods prior to ATK ownership of Bushnell, none of which ATK believes are material to ATK on a consolidated basis.
