(1) Basis of Presentation

On July 2, 2018, Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated) and its subsidiary, Federated Holdings (UK) II Limited, completed, effective as of July 1, 2018, the acquisition of a controlling interest in Hermes Fund Managers Limited (Hermes) from BT Pension Scheme (BTPS). BTPS retained a 29.5 percent interest in Hermes and contributed the remaining 10.5 percent interest into an employee benefit trust (EBT) for the benefit of certain members of Hermes' management and other key employees under a new long-term incentive plan. Federated paid a total of £260.7 million ($344.3 million) which included £246 million for the previously announced cost of the acquisition and an additional £14.7 million primarily for Federated's 60 percent share of Hermes' estimated excess regulatory capital (£0.8 million of which was paid in September 2018).

Federated and BTPS entered into a Put and Call Option Deed pursuant to which Federated has a right to exercise a call option to acquire BTPS's remaining 29.5 percent interest in Hermes at fair value and BTPS has a right to exercise a put option to sell its remaining interest in Hermes to Federated at fair value, after the third, fourth or fifth anniversaries, and subject to certain contingencies, the sixth anniversary, of the date of the purchase agreement.

Hermes granted equity awards from the EBT in the form of restricted nonpublic subsidiary stock pursuant to a long-term incentive plan (LTIP) to certain members of Hermes management and other key employees. These awards, which are subject to continued service vesting requirements, vest over a period of three to five years. At various predetermined dates, but no earlier than 9 months after vesting, award holders have a right to exercise a put option to sell shares to Federated at fair value and Federated has a right to exercise a call option to acquire shares at fair value. As a result of the grant of the equity awards in a nonpublic consolidated subsidiary under the terms of the LTIP and EBT, the shares are not included in the attribution of the subsidiary's income and losses to noncontrolling interest holders until the awards vest. Therefore, Federated will initially recognize the fair value of 33 percent of Hermes as Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest in Subsidiaries on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The recognized percent of the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest in Subsidiaries will fluctuate as the LTIP awards vest and put/call options are exercised.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on Federated's historical consolidated financial statements and Hermes historical consolidated financial statements, as adjusted, to give effect to the July 1, 2018 acquisition of Hermes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 give effect to the acquisition of Hermes as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 gives effect to the acquisition of Hermes as if it had occurred on June 30, 2018. The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the business combination, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the business combination.

The historical consolidated financial statements of Hermes was prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102). Pro forma adjustments to convert Hermes' historical consolidated financial statements from FRS 102 to United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) are included in Note 3 and were not deemed to be material to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The historical consolidated financial statements of Hermes were originally prepared in British pounds sterling but was translated to U.S. dollars using the following historical exchange rates for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements:
 
 
$ / £

Period end exchange rate as of June 30, 2018
 
1.3207

Average exchange rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018
 
1.3757

Average exchange rate for the year ended December 31, 2017
 
1.2889


Federated adopted Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method, which did not require the restatement of prior years. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for 2018 reflects the new revenue guidance, while 2017 does not reflect the new revenue guidance. For additional information on Federated's adoption of Topic 606, see Federated's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements


Federated's 2017 historical consolidated financial statements include a $70.4 million reduction to the income tax provision resulting from the revaluation of the net deferred tax liability due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (Tax Act), thereby increasing net income.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the combined company's financial condition or results of operations would have been had the acquisition occurred on the dates indicated. They also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial condition and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect the realization of any cost savings or other synergies from the Hermes acquisition following the completion of the business combination.

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with Federated's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 and Current Report on Form 8-K filed July 2, 2018, as well as the consolidated financial statements of Hermes Fund Managers Limited as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.2.

This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare pro forma adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when Federated has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations. The final purchase price allocation could differ materially from the preliminary purchase price allocation used for the pro forma adjustments herein and may include changes to intangible assets and goodwill.

(3) Pro Forma Adjustments

The pro forma adjustments are based on preliminary estimates and assumptions that are subject to change. With the exception of Note 3 (q), pro forma adjustments have not been adjusted for any tax-related expense impacts. Management believes that any tax-related expense impact is immaterial to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements:

(a) Represents the following:
