Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (“Amendment”) is being filed to amend and supplement the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Cartesian, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 23, 2015 (the “Initial Form 8-K”), in order to include financial statements and pro forma financial information permitted to be excluded from the Initial Form 8-K and filed by amendment to the Initial Form 8-K. As previously reported in the Initial Form 8-K, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Farncombe France SARL, an entity formed under the laws of France, and Farncombe Technology Limited, a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales (which includes its wholly-owned subsidiary, Farncombe Engineering Services Limited, a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales) (collectively, the “Farncombe Entities”). Farncombe Engineering Services Limited became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Farncombe Technology Limited immediately prior to the Closing of the acquisition of Farncombe Technology Limited by Cartesian. This Amendment provides the audited historical financial statements of the Farncombe Entities pursuant to Item 9.01(a) of Form 8-K and the unaudited pro forma financial information required by Item 9.01(b) of Form 8-K. Except for the filing of such financial statements, pro forma financial information and the accompanying consents of independent accountants, this Amendment does not modify or update the Initial Form 8-K.
The aggregate amount of purchase consideration paid at the Closing of the acquisition of the Farncombe Entities consisted of cash in the amount of £654,093 pounds sterling (approximately US$1.0 million based on an exchange rate of £1.556= US$1.00 as of July 21, 2015) and 588,567 shares of Company Common Stock. Additional consideration is payable upon determination of the net working capital of the Farncombe Entities and is expected to equal at least £654,093 pounds sterling (approximately US$1.0 million based on an exchange rate of £1.556= US$1.00 as of July 21, 2015), and will be adjusted as provided in the Purchase Agreement based upon the relative amounts of the net working capital of the Farncombe Entities as of May 31, 2015 and as of Closing and as compared to the target amount of net working capital specified in the Purchase Agreement.

Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of France Farncombe SARL,
In accordance with our engagement letter dated of May 04, 2015 and the complementary engagement letter on September 21, 2015; we have audited the accompanying financial statements of Farncombe France SARL for the year ended 31 December 2014, which comprise the Balance Sheet, the related Profit and Loss Account, and Cash Flows.
This report has been performed according the acquisition project from Cartesian of Farncombe France entity’s shares.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in France and with International Standards on Auditing (ISA); this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of Internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in France and in accordance with the US GAAS standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements.

Auditors' Responsibility
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's Internal Control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Farncombe France SARL as of December 31, 2014, and the profits of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

1.1 | Summary of significant accounting policies |
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in France and IFRS. No major adjustment has been identified between French GAAP and IFRS.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Turnover
Turnover represents the value, net of value added tax and discounts, of goods provided to customers and work carried out in respect of services provided to customers.
Fixed assets
Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any related gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.
Depreciation
Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives.
Tangible assets: 3 years straight-line
Deferred taxation
Full provision is made for deferred taxation resulting from timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses in the accounts and their recognition for tax purposes.
Deferred taxation is calculated on an un-discounted basis at the tax rates which are expected to apply in the periods when the timing differences will reverse.
As the end of the year ended December 31, 2014, no deferred tax has been booked, as the management has not identified any specific deferred tax.
Pension
No pension has been estimated or booked in the entries. The staff is young and new, so the total amount to be booked would be not material.

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law) and FRS102 applicable to small entities. Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these accounts, the directors are required to:
● | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
● | make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
● | prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law) and FRS102 applicable to small entities. Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these accounts, the directors are required to:
● | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
● | make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
● | prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

to the members of Farncombe Engineering Services Limited
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Farncombe Engineering Services Limited, which comprise the Balance Sheet as of 31 December 2014, and the related Profit and Loss Account and cash flow for the year then ended.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of Internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's Internal Control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluationg the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Farncombe Engineering Services Limited at 31 December 2014, and the profits of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in United Kingdom and FRS102 applicable to small entities.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of July 4, 2015 and unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 and the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015, are based on the historical financial statements of Cartesian, Inc. (“Cartesian” or the “Company”), and Farncombe France SARL, Farncombe Technology Limited, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Farncombe Engineering Services Limited (collectively, “the Farncombe Entities”) after giving effect to Cartesian’s acquisition of the Farncombe Entities on July 22, 2015 (the “Farncombe Acquisition”), as more fully described in the Explanatory Note of this Form 8-K/A and applying the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements. Farncombe Engineering Services Limited became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Farncombe Technology Limited immediately prior to the closing of the acquisition of Farncombe Technology Limited by Cartesian.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet and unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations, including the notes thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, Cartesian’s historical consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal period ended July 4, 2015, as well as the Farncombe Entities historical financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 which are included as Exhibits 99.2, 99.3 and 99.4 to this Form 8-K/A. This unaudited pro forma information should also be read in conjunction with Cartesian’s Form 8-K related to its acquisition of the Farncombe Entities, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 23, 2015.
The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations are presented as if the Farncombe Acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the fiscal year on December 29, 2013 and include all adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the transaction, are expected to have a continuing impact, and that are factually supportable. The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet is presented as if the Farncombe Acquisition had occurred as of July 4, 2015 and includes all adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the transaction, and that are factually supportable.
The financial statements of Farncombe Technology Limited and Farncombe Engineering Services Limited (“Farncombe UK”) were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom (“UK GAAP”) and the financial statements of Farncombe France SARL were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), both of which differ in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. Adjustments have been made to reconcile the Farncombe Entities' financial statements to U.S. GAAP for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma presentation as described in the accompanying notes. A description of reconciling amounts between U.S. GAAP and UK GAAP are included in the accompanying notes.
The financial statements of Farncombe UK were originally prepared using pounds sterling as the reporting currency, and the financial information in those financial statements has been translated into U.S. dollars for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma presentation as described in Note 1. The financial statements of Farncombe France SARL (“Farncombe France”) were originally prepared using the Euro as the reporting currency and the financial information in those financial statements has been translated into U.S. dollars for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma presentation as described in Note 1.
Cartesian reports its operating results on a 52/53-week fiscal year basis. The fiscal year end is determined as the Saturday ending nearest December 31. The Farncombe Entities report their operating results on a calendar year basis and their results are included in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements based on their fiscal year. The difference in fiscal periods is not considered material to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements.
The Farncombe Acquisition has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. GAAP. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price, calculated as described in Note 1 to these unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet and statement of operations, is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on various estimates.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements have been prepared by management for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial position or results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had Cartesian and the Farncombe Entities been a combined company during the specified period. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not include the effects of any synergies that Cartesian may achieve related to the Farncombe Acquisition or the costs necessary to achieve any synergies. The unaudited pro forma financial information also does not include costs for integrating Cartesian and the Farncombe Entities. The unaudited pro forma financial information is preliminary and based on currently available information, assumptions and adjustments that are subject to change.

COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations are presented as if the Farncombe Acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the fiscal year on December 29, 2013 and include all adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the transaction, are expected to have a continuing impact, and that are factually supportable. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet is presented as if the Farncombe Acquisition had occurred as of July 4, 2015 and includes all adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the transaction, are expected to have a continuing impact, and that are factually supportable.
The financial statements of Farncombe UK were prepared in accordance with UK GAAP and the financial statements of Farncombe France SARL were prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, both of which differ in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. Adjustments have been made to reconcile the Farncombe Entities' financial statements to U.S. GAAP for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma presentation. These adjustments relate primarily to differences such as the accounting for accrued vacation and goodwill amortization for Farncombe UK. Under UK GAAP there is no requirement to accrue for employees’ accrued vacation entitlement. U.S. GAAP requires that certain vacation benefits be accrued. The adjustment to record accrued vacation is included in the Historical Farncombe Entities column on the accompanying combined condensed financial statements and was $22,000 and $88,000 for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 and the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015, respectively. Goodwill is amortized under UK GAAP. U.S. GAAP prohibits the amortization of goodwill. An adjustment to eliminate goodwill amortization of approximately $175,000 and $47,000 is included in the Historical Farncombe Entities column on the accompanying combined condensed statements of operations for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 and the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015, respectively.
The financial statements of Farncombe UK were originally prepared using pounds sterling as the reporting currency. The statement of operations information of Farncombe UK for the year ended December 31, 2014 was translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of £1 = U.S. $1.647 and for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2015 was translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of £1 = U.S. $1.556, the average rates for each of the periods presented. The balance sheet information was translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of £1 = U.S. $1.560, the rate at July 4, 2015.
The financial statements of Farncombe France were originally prepared using the Euro as the reporting currency. The statement of operations information of Farncombe France for the year ended December 31, 2014 was translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of Euro 1 = U.S. $1.332 and for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2015 was translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of Euro 1 = U.S. $1.122, the average rates for each of the periods presented. The balance sheet information was translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of Euro 1 = U.S. $1.106, the rate at July 4, 2015.
All intercompany accounts and transactions between the Farncombe Entities have been eliminated in the combined condensed financial statements. Adjustments to eliminate intercompany revenues and expenses of $0.8 million and $0.4 million are included in the Historical Farncombe Entities column on the accompanying combined condensed statements of operations for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015 and the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015, respectively. An adjustment to eliminate management fee income and expense of $0.6 million is included in the Historical Farncombe Entities column on the accompanying combined condensed statement of operations for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2015. Management fees for the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015 were not significant.
Cartesian reports its operating results on a 52/53-week fiscal year basis. The fiscal year end is determined as the Saturday ending nearest December 31. The Farncombe Entities report their operating results on a calendar year basis and their results are included in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements based on their fiscal year. The difference in fiscal periods is not considered material to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements.
Preliminary Purchase Price
The total preliminary purchase price transferred to effect the acquisition of the Farncombe Entities is as follows (in thousands):
(in thousands) | ||||
Cash paid at closing | $ | 1,017 | ||
Equity issued at closing | 2,036 | |||
Fair value of contingent consideration | 1,667 | |||
Working capital adjustment | 1,928 | |||
Total preliminary purchase price | $ | 6,648 |
Under the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated July 22, 2015 between the Company and the shareholders of the Farncombe Entities (the “Sellers”), the purchase consideration for the capital stock of the Farncombe Entities and related agreements of the Sellers consists of (i) cash and shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.005 (“Company Common Stock”) paid at the closing of the Farncombe Acquisition (“Closing”), (ii) cash payable after Closing in accordance with the Purchase Agreement upon determination of the net working capital of the Farncombe Entities and (iii) the contingent right of the Sellers to receive additional cash and shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to an earn-out (the “Earn-Out”) based upon the performance of the Farncombe Entities after Closing.
The Earn-Out opportunity, is potentially payable in cash and/or shares of Company Common Stock as elected by each Seller as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The aggregate amount potentially payable pursuant to the Earn-Out consists of cash in an amount up to £719,483 pounds sterling (approximately US$1.1 million based on an exchange rate of £1.556= US$1.00 as of July 21, 2015) and up to 461,055 shares of Company Common Stock (approximately £1,024,765 pounds sterling or US$1.6 million based on an exchange rate of £1.556=US$1.00 as of July 21, 2015).
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
Total purchase consideration has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and to liabilities assumed based on their respective acquisition-date fair values. The measurement period for purchase price allocations ends as soon as information on the facts and circumstances becomes available, but does not exceed 12 months. If new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company will retrospectively adjust the amounts recognized as of the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price allocation is summarized in the following table (in thousands):
(in thousands) | ||||
Tangible assets and liabilities | ||||
Current assets, including cash acquired | $ | 11,266 | ||
Non-current assets | 60 | |||
Current liabilities | 7,971 | |||
Non-current liabilities | – | |||
Intangible assets | 1,190 | |||
Goodwill | 2,103 | |||
Net assets acquired | $ | 6,648 |
Based on the preliminary results of the acquisition valuation, the Company has allocated approximately $1.2 million of the purchase price to identifiable intangible assets. The following table summarizes the major classes of intangible assets, as well as the respective weighted-average amortization periods:
Weighted- Average | ||||||||
Amount | Amortization Period | |||||||
(in thousands) | (Years) | |||||||
Identifiable Intangible Assets | ||||||||
Tradename | $ | 90 | 1.0 | |||||
Non-compete agreements | 60 | 5.0 | ||||||
Customer relationships | 1,040 | 4.0 | ||||||
Total identifiable intangible assets | $ | 1,190 |
The excess of purchase consideration over net assets assumed was recorded as goodwill, which represents the strategic value assigned to the Farncombe Entities, including the expected benefit from synergies resulting from the transaction, as well as the knowledge and experience of the workforce in place. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, goodwill will not be amortized but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently, if certain indicators are present. In the event that management determines that the value of goodwill becomes impaired, the combined company will incur an accounting charge for the amount of the impairment during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made. The goodwill and intangible assets related to this acquisition are not deductible for foreign tax purposes.
The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary estimates of fair values as of the acquisition date. Management believes the fair values recognized for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on reasonable estimates and assumptions. Preliminary fair value estimates may change as additional information becomes available. There can be no assurance that the final determination will not result in material changes from these preliminary amounts. Amounts preliminarily allocated to intangible assets and goodwill may change significantly, and amortization methods and useful lives may differ from the assumptions that have been used in this unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information, any of which could result in a material change in operating expenses.
Note 2 – Pro Forma Adjustments
The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet has been prepared as if the Farncombe Acquisition was completed on July 4, 2015 and accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations have been prepared as if the acquisition of the Farncombe Entities was completed on December 29, 2013, and reflect the following unaudited pro forma adjustments (in thousands):
[A] The elimination of the Farncombe Entities Stockholders’ Equity and historical goodwill.
[B] Acquisition Funding
The acquisition of the Farncombe Entities was funded by available cash on hand in the amount of £654,093 (or approximately $1.0 million) and by the issuance of 588,567 shares of Company Stock equal to £1,308,186 (or approximately $2.0 million) and estimated additional consideration payable upon determination of the net working capital of the Farncombe Entities as if the acquisition of the Farncombe Entities occurred on July 4, 2015.
[C] To record goodwill and identifiable intangible assets and related amortization expense.
Based on the preliminary results of the acquisition valuation, the Company has allocated approximately $1.2 million of the purchase price to identifiable intangible assets. The following table summarizes the major classes of intangible assets, as well as the respective weighted-average amortization periods:
Weighted- Average | ||||||||
Amount | Amortization Period | |||||||
(in thousands) | (Years) | |||||||
Goodwill | $ | 2,103 | N/A | |||||

[D] To record a pro forma adjustment related to Farncombe Acquisition transaction costs of $292,000 incurred during the twenty-six weeks ended July 4, 2015.
[E] To record a liability for the fair value of contingent consideration related to the contingent right of the sellers to receive additional cash and shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to an earn-out (the “Earn-Out”) based upon the performance of the Farncombe Entities after Closing. The term of the Earn-Out opportunity ends on the second anniversary of the Closing. The Earn-Out liability was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation using a risk-adjusted discount rate and management’s estimate of forecasted revenues that are eligible under the Earn-Out as described in the Purchase Agreement. The fair value of the Earn-Out liability will be evaluated each reporting period and changes in its fair value will be included in the Company’s results of operations.
The Earn-Out opportunity, is potentially payable in cash and/or shares of Company Common Stock as elected by each Seller as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The aggregate amount potentially payable pursuant to the Earn-Out consists of cash in an amount up to £719,483 pounds sterling (approximately US$1.1 million based on an exchange rate of £1.556= US$1.00 as of July 21, 2015) and up to 461,055 shares of Company Common Stock (approximately £1,024,765 pounds sterling or US$1.6 million based on an exchange rate of £1.556=US$1.00 as of July 21, 2015). The actual number of shares to be issued and amount of cash to be paid is not determinable until the end of the Earn-Out period based on the achievement of the revenue target amounts specified in the Purchase Agreement subject to earlier payment upon certain change of control events relating to Cartesian or the Farncombe Entities as specified in the Purchase Agreement.
[F] Adjustment to record tax benefit to reflect the pro forma income tax impact at the Company’s statutory income tax rate.
