Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Unless otherwise noted or as the context requires: “the Company,” “Institutional Financial Markets”, “we”, “us”, “IFMI” and “our” refer to Institutional Financial Markets, Inc. and it subsidiaries (formerly known as Cohen & Company Inc.); “IFMILLC,” refers to IFMI, LLC (formerly known as Cohen Brothers, LLC), the main operating subsidiary of the Company; “JVB” refers to JVB Financial Holdings, L.L.C. and its subsidiaries; and Business Combination refers to the January 13, 2011 closing of the acquisition of all of the outstanding membership units of JVB by IFMILLC.

On September 14, 2010, the Company and IFMILLC entered into a Purchase and Contribution Agreement, referred to herein, as amended, as the “Purchase Agreement,” with JVB, the sellers listed therein, or the “Sellers,” and certain employees of JVB, or the “Management Employees.” On January 13, 2011, the Company and IFMILLC completed the Business Combination, pursuant to which the Sellers sold all of the outstanding equity interests in JVB to IFMILLC and JVB became a wholly owned subsidiary of IFMILLC. The purchase price consisted of $5.6 million in cash, 313,051 shares of IFMI common stock and 559,020 restricted membership units in IFMILLC, or “Restricted Units,” plus a cash amount equal to JVB’s tangible net worth. In addition, the Company agreed to pay $2.5 million to the Management Employees in three equal installments, one on each of the first three anniversaries of the closing date of the Business Combination, contingent upon each individual’s continued employment at each payment date. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, an escrow of $484,000 was established for the payment of any adjustments to the purchase price based on the final tangible net worth of JVB as of the closing of the transaction and particular indemnities, and $384,000 was withheld by IFMILLC for payment to the Sellers only if a specific revenue target is achieved at the end of the first year of operation following the closing of the transaction. All of the Restricted Units were delivered to Management Employees and will vest in three equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the closing date of the Business Combination, subject to the terms and conditions contained in each employee’s employment agreement. Once vested, the Restricted Units may be redeemed for cash or, at the Company’s option, shares of the common stock of the Company.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements give effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed as of September 30, 2010 for balance sheet purposes, and at the beginning of the periods presented for statements of operations purposes. We have adjusted the historical consolidated financial statements of both IFMI and JVB 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 statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The manner in which this pro forma financial information is calculated may differ from similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the Business Combination had been completed during the period or as of the dates for which the pro forma data is presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results or the financial position of the combined company. These statements do not give effect to (1) IFMI or JVB’s results of operations or other transactions or developments since September 30, 2010, (2) the impact of possible enhancements, expense efficiencies or synergies expected to result from the Business Combination, or (3) the effects of events or developments that may occur subsequent to the Business Combination. The forgoing matters could cause both the combined company’s pro forma historical financial position and results of operations, and the combined company’s actual future financial position and results of operations, to differ materially from those presented in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statement of operations and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of IFMI and JVB. JVB’s audited financial statements for 2009 and 2008 are filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K of which this exhibit is a part. IFMI’s historical audited financial statements and interim unaudited quarterly financial statements are included on Forms 10-K and Forms 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are available via IFMI’s website at www.ifmi.com.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements give effect to the Business Combination in a transaction to be accounted for as a purchase business combination under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 “Business Combinations” and as if the acquisition of JVB had been completed as of September 30, 2010 for balance sheet purposes, and at the beginning of the periods presented for statements of operations purposes. IFMI is the acquirer for accounting purposes. IFMI will record the acquisition of JVB’s assets and liabilities as of the effective date of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the Business Combination had been completed during the period or as of the dates for which the pro forma data is presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results or the financial position of the combined company.

The purchase price of JVB has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon management’s preliminary estimates of their respective fair values as of the assumed date of acquisition as described above. The purchase price allocation reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements is preliminary, and the final allocation will be based upon the fair values of the actual assets and liabilities of JVB as of the effective date of the combination. Accordingly, the actual purchase price adjustments may differ materially from those presented in these statements.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the JVB historical balances in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements in order to conform to IFMI’s presentation. IFMI has completed a preliminary review of JVB’s accounting policies but the review is ongoing. As such, additional reclassifications or pro forma adjustments may be identified.

Note 2 – Purchase Price of JVB

For purposes of preparing the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, the purchase price was calculated as follows:

Calculation of Purchase Price

 

Equity consideration (i)

     

Shares of IFMI issued

     313,051      

Assumed price (ii)

   $ 4.89      
           

Value of shares

      $ 1,531   

Cash Consideration (iii)

        15,196   

Contingent payments due (iv)

        326   
           

Total purchase price

      $ 17,053   
           

 

(i) Excludes 559,020 Restricted Units issued to certain JVB sellers that will remain employees of JVB. These Restricted Units vest over a three-year period and will be treated as compensation for future service and not part of the purchase price.

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

 

(ii) The price used is the closing price of IFMI common stock on January 13, 2011.
(iii) Excludes $2,482 to be paid over time to certain JVB sellers that will remain employees of JVB. The amount is contingent upon the individuals remaining employees. It is earned ratably over a three-year period. If the employee terminates employment during the three-year period, any unearned portion is refundable to the Company. It will be treated as compensation for future services and not part of the purchase price.
(iv) See note 3-(D) below

Note 3 – Pro Forma Adjustments

Pro forma adjustments for the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2010 include:

 

  (A) Cash consideration paid to JVB sellers. See note 2.

 

  (B) Goodwill. Goodwill is calculated as follows:

Calculation of Goodwill

 

Purchase price

   $ 17,053   

Fair value of net assets acquired

     (10,100
        

Goodwill

   $ 6,953   
        

 

  (C) $166 which represents estimated value of broker-dealer license. The $166 value of JVB’s broker-dealer license is an initial estimate. This value will be finalized in the future. Any adjustment to this value in the final purchase accounting will result in an offsetting adjustment to the amount assigned to goodwill.

 

  (D) Represents contingent payments due to JVB sellers based on performance targets. A specific business unit of JVB is required to earn a minimum amount of revenue within 12 months of the Business Combination in order for this amount to be due to the owners of JVB. If that threshold is met, the owners of JVB will receive an additional payment of $384. The Company will treat this arrangement as contingent consideration under ASC 805. Accordingly, the Company should determine the fair value of this arrangement and record a liability equal to the fair value as of the date of the Business Combination. The Company has not yet finalized its determination of fair value, but included its preliminary determination of $326. The Company will carry this liability at fair value and any future adjustments in fair value will be recognized in earnings.

  (F) Elimination of the historical net worth of JVB.

Pro forma adjustments for the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 include:

 

  (G) (i) Cash compensation to be paid to certain JVB sellers that will remain employees; and (ii) equity based compensation expense relating to Restricted Units issued to certain JVB Sellers that will remain employees calculated as follows:

Calculation of Compensation Adjustment

     36      
           

Monthly expense

     69

Total Adjustment

      $ 1,304   
           

Note: Vested Restricted Units may be convertible on a one for one basis to IFMI shares of common stock at the Company’s option. Therefore, the per unit value of IFMILLC membership units used for equity compensation expense equals the per share market price of IFMI shares of common stock.

 

  (H) Adjust to professional services and other operating to eliminate legal fees related to the Business Combination.

 

  (I) Adjustment to income taxes calculated using the outstanding income tax provision rate of IFMILLC and the Company as of September 30, 2010 and applying it to the JVB income and adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

 

  (J) As part of the Business Combination and the issuance by IFMI of 313,051 shares of common stock to the JVB sellers, IFMILLC has agreed to issue to IFMI an additional 313,051 membership units of IFMILLC. This adjustment represents adjustment to non-controlling interest as result of applying JVB income and adjustments as well as the additional IFMILLC membership units issued to IFMI.

Note: Vested Restricted Units are convertible on a one for one basis to IFMI shares of common stock at the Company’s option. Therefore, the per-unit value of Restricted Units equals the per share market price of IFMI common stock.

 

  (M) There is no tax adjustment for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. IFMI was a partnership from January 1, 2009 to December 17, 2009 and therefore not subject to federal income tax. Although it was subject to small amounts of entity level taxes in certain jurisdictions, there would not have been any material impact to those taxes (which in themselves were immaterial during 2009) through the acquisition of JVB. For the two week period of 2009 that IFMI was a corporation, its effective tax rate was 0%.

 

  (N) As part of the Business Combination and the issuance by IFMI of 313,051 shares of common stock to the JVB sellers, IFMILLC has agreed to issue IFMI an additional 313,051 membership units of IFMILLC. This adjustment represents adjustment to non-controlling interest as result of applying JVB income and adjustments as well as additional IFMILLC membership units issued to IFMI.
