(UPG) is included for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and for the year ended December 31, 2003. The acquisition of Nu-Gro closed on April 30, 2004 and the acquisition of UPG closed on July 30, 2004; the information regarding the transactions, including required financial and pro forma financial information has been previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The respective purchase price allocations ascribed to the Nu-Gro and UPG acquisitions have been presented in the Company's Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2004, previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The pro forma information contained herein includes the required pro forma operating results of Nu-Gro and UPG. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents how the combined financial statements of (1) United Industries, a manufacturer and marketer of value-oriented products for the consumer lawn and garden care and household insect control markets in the United States, (2) Nu-Gro, a manufacturer and marketer of consumer lawn and garden products and supplier of controlled release nitrogen and other fertilizer technologies in Canada, and (3) UPG, a privately held marketer and manufacturer of premium branded pet supplies, may have appeared had the businesses actually been combined at the beginning of the periods presented herein. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information shows the impact of the acquisitions of Nu-Gro and UPG on the Company's historical results of operations under the purchase method of accounting with United Industries treated as the acquirer. Under this method of accounting, United Industries recorded the assets and liabilities of Nu-Gro and UPG at their estimated fair values as of April 30, 2004 and July 30, 2004, respectively, the respective dates the acquisitions were completed. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statements present the historical financial information of United Industries, Nu-Gro, and UPG for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003 and give effect to the acquisitions as if they had been completed at the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been derived from and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes of United Industries, as filed in its quarterly and annual reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes of Nu-Gro and UPG. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes estimated adjustments to record the assets and liabilities of Nu-Gro and UPG at their respective fair values and represents management's estimates based on available information. The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined upon completion of a final valuation, from an independent third-party valuation firm, to determine the fair values of Nu-Gro's and UPG's tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date. Increases or decreases in the fair value of the net assets, commitments, executory contracts and other items of Nu-Gro and UPG may change the amount of the purchase price allocated to goodwill and other assets and liabilities and may impact the income statements due to adjustments in yield or amortization of the adjusted assets or liabilities. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have resulted had the acquisitions been completed at the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it indicative of the results of operations in future periods of the combined companies. In addition, the allocations of the purchase prices which impact the income statements are subject to adjustment and may vary materially from the actual purchase price allocations that will be recorded upon receipt of a final independent third-party valuation report.
