Exhibit 99.2

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of Cott Corporation (the “Company” or “Cott”) consists of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2016 and the year ended January 2, 2016, and an unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of April 2, 2016. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information represents the anticipated pro forma impacts of the Eden Acquisition (as defined below) and financing adjustments associated with financing the acquisition, subject to certain assumptions set out herein.

The Eden Acquisition

On June 7, 2016, Carbon Acquisition Co B.V., a private company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cott, as the purchaser, and Cott, as the purchaser’s guarantor, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Hydra Luxembourg Holdings S.à.r.l., a private limited liability company incorporated in Luxembourg, as the seller, to acquire the sole issued and outstanding share in the share capital of Hydra Dutch Holdings 1 B.V. (“Eden Holdings”), the indirect parent company of Eden Springs Europe B.V., a leading provider of water and coffee solutions in Europe (the “Eden Acquisition”). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on historical financial information of Eden Holdings described further below.

The purchase consideration is approximately €470 million ($535 million based on 1.1386 exchange rate at April 2, 2016), subject to customary adjustments for cash, debt, working capital and other items, payable at closing in cash of which approximately €357 million ($407 million) will be used to pay the outstanding third-party indebtedness of Eden Holdings’ subsidiaries.

The Company has received committed financing from Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities plc, Wells Fargo Securities International Limited, Merrill Lynch International and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., or affiliates of the foregoing entities, to support the Eden Acquisition. The Company currently intends to finance the acquisition and certain related fees and expenses through a combination of the proceeds of the 5.50% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Senior Notes”), incremental borrowings under the Company’s asset based lending facility (“ABL Facility”) of approximately $71 million and cash on hand.

The Company expects to incur approximately $6.4 million of acquisition costs. This estimate does not include financing fees related to the debt financing and other financing-related costs, which are estimated to be approximately $32 million.

Basis for Pro Forma Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of April 2, 2016 gives effect to the Eden Acquisition as if it occurred on April 2, 2016. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended January 2, 2016 and the three months ended April 2, 2016 assume that the Eden Acquisition was consummated on January 4, 2015.

Cott’s historical financial information for the year ended January 2, 2016 and as of and for the three months ended April 2, 2016 is derived from Cott’s audited financial statements for the year ended January 2, 2016 and its unaudited interim historical consolidated financial statements for the three months ended April 2, 2016, respectively.

The historical financial information for Eden Holdings and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2015 and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 is derived from its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, each of which is included herein as Exhibit 99.3 and 99.4, respectively. All references to January 2, 2016, reflect Eden Holdings’ historical financial statements for the year end December 31, 2015, and all references to April 2, 2016, reflect Eden Holdings’ unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

1


The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to matters that are (i) directly attributable to the Eden Acquisition, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the operating results of the combined entities.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with:

 

    the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included herein as Exhibit 99.2;

 

    the audited consolidated financial statements of Cott as of and for the year ended January 2, 2016, included in Cott’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 29, 2016;

 

    the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Cott as of and for the three months ended April 2, 2016, included in Cott’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 9, 2016;

 

    the audited consolidated financial statements of Eden Holdings as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 included herein as Exhibit 99.3;

 

    the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Eden Holdings as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 included herein as Exhibit 99.4;

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the business combination accounting guidance as provided in Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations, with Cott treated as the accounting acquirer. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information will differ from the final acquisition accounting for a number of reasons, including the fact that the estimates of fair values of assets and liabilities acquired are preliminary and subject to change when the formal valuation and other studies are finalized. Furthermore, accounting for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes, is preliminary and deferred tax assets and liabilities may change when final fair value adjustments and additional information is considered. Also, the definitive determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed will occur on the date of acquisition, which will also have an impact on the final acquisition accounting, and ultimately on goodwill. The differences that will occur between the preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is provided for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred if the Eden Acquisition had been completed as of the dates set forth above, nor is it indicative of the future results of the combined entities, nor does it reflect any future financings that may be completed to re-finance any part of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future operating results or financial position of the combined entities following the Eden Acquisition and the transactions related thereto. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not reflect any revenue or cost savings from synergies that may be achieved with respect to the combined entities, or the impact of non-recurring items, including synergies, directly related to the Eden Acquisition. Foreign exchange rates assumed for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are not necessarily indicative of future foreign exchange rates.

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented above gives effect to the Eden Acquisition, subject to the assumptions set out herein. The historical financial information of Cott is presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The historical financial information of Eden Holdings is presented in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Cott assessed the need to make certain adjustments to Eden Holdings historical financial statements prepared under IFRS to conform to Cott’s accounting framework and accounting policies under U.S. GAAP and noted no significant adjustments were needed in the preparation of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Certain historical financial information of Eden Holdings has been reclassified to conform to the presentation of historical financial information of Cott. However, the pro forma financial statements may not reflect all the adjustments necessary to conform the accounting policies of Eden Holdings to those of Cott as the Company is still in the process of conforming the accounting policies of Eden Holdings to those of Cott.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet at April 2, 2016 was prepared using the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheets of Cott and Eden Holdings as of April 2, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended January 2, 2016 was prepared using the Cott audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended January 2, 2016 and the Eden Holdings audited consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2015. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2016 was prepared using the Cott unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2016 and the Eden Holdings unaudited interim consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Cott’s historical financial information for the year ended January 2, 2016 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Cott for the year ended January 2, 2016, included in Cott’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 29, 2016, and as of and for the three months ended April 2, 2016 from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Cott as of and for the three months ended April 2, 2016, included in Cott’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 9, 2016.

The historical financial information for Eden Holdings for the year ended December 31, 2015 is derived from its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 included herein as Exhibits 99.3 and 99.4, respectively.

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to matters that are (i) directly attributable to the Eden Acquisition, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the operating results of the combined entities. The pro forma adjustments are preliminary and based on estimates of the fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and have been prepared to illustrate the estimated effect of the Eden Acquisition and certain other adjustments. The final determination of the purchase price allocation will be based on the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date the respective acquisitions close, and could result in a significant change to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, including goodwill.

2. Calculation of Purchase Consideration and Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation of the Eden Acquisition

Estimated Purchase Consideration

The estimated purchase consideration to be transferred on the Eden Acquisition date includes the value of the estimated cash consideration and the repayment of the outstanding indebtedness of Eden Holdings and its subsidiaries. The aggregate purchase consideration is subject to customary adjustments for cash, debt, working capital and other items. A preliminary estimate of the purchase consideration is as follows:

 

(dollars in millions)       

Cash to seller

   $ 91.8   

Cash paid on behalf of Eden Holdings to retire outstanding indebtedness

     406.8   

Settlement of Eden Holdings’ financing payables, net

     70.6   
  

 

 

 

Estimated purchase consideration

   $ 569.2   

The working capital adjustment will be determined as the difference between the actual working capital at closing and the target working capital specified in the Share Purchase Agreement. For purposes of the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, no amounts have been included in the purchase consideration as any estimated amount for the working capital adjustment would be offset by a corresponding change in working capital.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Eden Holdings are recorded at the acquisition date fair values and added to those of Cott. The pro forma adjustments are based on preliminary estimates of the fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date and have been prepared to illustrate the estimated effect of the Eden Acquisition. The allocation is dependent upon certain valuation and other studies that have not yet been completed. Accordingly, the pro forma purchase price allocation is subject to further adjustment as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses and final valuations are completed. There can be no assurances that these additional analyses and final valuations will not result in significant changes to the estimates of fair value set forth below.

The following table sets forth a preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase consideration to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Eden Holdings based on Eden Holdings’ March 31, 2016 balance sheet, with the excess recorded as goodwill:

 

(dollars in millions)       

Assets Acquired

  

Cash & cash equivalents

   $ 20.5   

Accounts receivable

     75.2   

Income taxes recoverable

     2.9   

Inventories

     24.6   

Prepaid expenses and other current assets

     29.7   

Property, plant and equipment

     99.0   

Intangibles and other assets

     231.5   

Deferred tax assets

     19.8   
  

 

 

 

Total assets

   $ 503.2   

Liabilities Assumed

  

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

   $ 137.0   

Deferred tax liabilities

     50.1   

Other long-term liabilities

     7.4   
  

 

 

 

Total liabilities

   $ 194.5   

Net assets acquired (a)

     308.7   

Estimated purchase consideration (b)

     569.2   

Estimated goodwill (b) - (a)

   $ 260.5   

The Company is still in the process of validating and performing valuations for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Preliminary identifiable intangible assets in the pro forma financial statements consist of intangibles derived from customer relationships and trade names. Acquired intangible assets of Eden Holdings have both indefinite and definite lives. The amortization related to definite lived intangible assets is reflected as a pro forma adjustment, as further described in Note 4(f). The identifiable intangible assets’ estimated fair value and related amortization estimates are preliminary and are based on management’s estimates after consideration of similar transactions. As discussed above, the amount that will ultimately be allocated to identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, and the related amount of amortization, may differ materially from this preliminary allocation. In addition, the periods in which the amortization expense is recorded ultimately will be based upon the periods in which the associated economic benefits or detriments are expected to be derived, or where appropriate, based on the use of a straight-line method. Therefore, the amount of amortization following the Eden Acquisition may differ significantly between periods based upon the final value assigned, and amortization methodology used, for each identifiable intangible asset.

 

7


The deferred income tax assets have been adjusted to tax effect the difference between the carrying value and fair value of Eden Holdings’ assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Cott using a blended statutory tax rate of 20.0%. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets and liabilities in each of the jurisdictions in which Eden Holdings operates.

Goodwill represents the excess of the preliminary estimated purchase consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized to earnings, but instead is reviewed for impairment at least annually, absent any indicators of impairment. Goodwill recognized in the Eden Acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The final determination of the purchase price allocation of the Eden Acquisition will be based on Eden Holdings’ net assets acquired as of the Eden Acquisition date. The purchase price allocation may change materially based on the receipt of more detailed information. Therefore, the actual allocations will differ from the pro forma adjustments presented.

(d) Represents adjustment to income tax expense as a result of the tax impact on the pro forma adjustments related to financing. For Eden Holdings, the reversal of interest and related expenses was not tax-effected as these related to tax losses for which no benefit was recognized for the periods presented. Cott’s interest expense on new financing related to the Eden Acquisition was tax-effected at the Cott Canadian statutory tax rate of 25.7%.

(f) Represents adjustment to record straight line amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets, except for customer relationships which is being amortized based upon the periods over which the economic benefits of the asset is expected to be realized.

The net adjustment to selling, general and administrative expenses for the amortization of intangible assets is as follows:

For purposes of valuing the intangible assets, the income approach was primarily used. Specifically, the relief from royalty method was used to value the trademarks and trade names, and the multi-period excess earnings method was used to value the customer relationships.

The estimated effect of amortization of the customer relationships on the operating results for the five years following the acquisition is expected to be as follows:

(h) Represents pro forma basic and diluted loss per share (“EPS”). To calculate diluted EPS, any impact of the potential dilutive instruments (i.e. stock options, performance-based restricted share units (“RSU”), timed based RSUs and the Convertible Preferred Shares) would be antidilutive as these would decrease the loss per share. As such, the basic and diluted EPS are the same for the pro forma periods presented.
