INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

The Shareholders

Creative Genius, Inc. dba Pura Vida Bracelets

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Creative Genius, Inc. dba Pura Vida Bracelets (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, as restated, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended, as restated, and the related notes to the financial statements, as restated (collectively, the financial statements).

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; 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 misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’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 entity’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 that the 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 present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Creative Genius, Inc. dba Pura Vida Bracelets as of December 31, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, during 2018 the Company elected to change its method of accounting for raw materials inventory. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

As discussed in Note 9 to the financial statements, the 2018 financial statements have been restated to correct misstatements identified subsequent to the original report date of April 22, 2019. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS RESTATED)

December 31, 2018

1.ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations and Corporate Structure

Creative Genius, Inc. dba Pura Vida Bracelets, (the “Company”) was founded and incorporated in the state of California in 2010. The Company is a retail business that sells a variety of bracelets, apparel, jewelry and other accessories. The Company’s operations are based in California.

Basis of Presentation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when an order has been received, the product has been shipped, the selling price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and when both title and risk of loss transfer to the customer, provided that no significant obligations remain. Sales revenues do not include sales taxes collected from the customer. Sales are presented net of credits for returns, discounts, allowances and other chargebacks that result in deductions either from invoiced amounts or subsequent billings to customers. For the year ended December 31, 2018, such credits totaled $10,069,479.

The Company maintains a monthly club membership program whereby members pay six or twelve months in advance for monthly shipment of product with advanced payments recognized as deferred revenue. Upon monthly shipment of club membership product, revenue is recognized equally over each month with a corresponding reduction in the deferred revenue balance. At December 31, 2018, deferred revenue consisted of $937,938.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and investments that are readily convertible into cash and have original maturities of three months or less. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2018.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and customer-specific identification and believes that collections of receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, are reasonably assured. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $74,216 as of December 31, 2018.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or net realizable value.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Costs incurred for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and expenditures for major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated remaining useful lives.

CREATIVE GENIUS, INC. dba PURA VIDA BRACELETS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS RESTATED)

December 31, 2018

Income Taxes

The Company is taxed under the provisions of subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions, the Company does not pay federal corporate income taxes on its taxable income. However, the Company is subject to California franchise tax equal to the greater of 1.5% of taxable income or $800.

Under the provisions of subchapter S, the shareholders are liable for individual federal and state income taxes on the Company's taxable income. The Company may disburse funds necessary to satisfy the shareholders’ estimated personal income tax liabilities.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2013. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. To the extent accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction of the overall income tax provision in the period that such determination is made.

The Company did not have an unrecognized tax benefit as of December 31, 2018 and does not expect this to change significantly over the next 12 months. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising cost for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $16,383,668.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified on the statement of operations within “Sales, net” were $1,874,558 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The associated shipping and handling costs of $8,006,039, for the year ended December 31, 2018, are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Litigation

From time to time, the Company may become involved in disputes, litigation and other legal actions. The Company estimates the range of liability related to pending litigation where the amount and range of loss can be estimated. The Company records its best estimate of a loss when the loss is considered probable. Where a liability is probable and there is a range of estimated loss with no best estimate in the range, the Company records a charge equal to at least the minimum estimated liability for a loss contingency when both of the following conditions are met: (i) information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements and (ii) the range of loss can be reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2018, a loss accrual was recorded as a result of a litigation settlement in 2019 in the amount of $145,000, and is included in accrued expenses of the accompanying balance sheets.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update requires lessees to recognize at the lease commencement date a lease liability, which is the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use assets, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. This update is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early application is permitted for all nonpublic business entities upon issuance. Management has not yet completed their analysis of the potential impact of this new guidance on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. ASU 2014-09 is now effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Earlier application is permitted. Management has not yet completed their analysis of the potential impact of this new guidance on the Company’s financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued

CREATIVE GENIUS, INC. dba PURA VIDA BRACELETS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS RESTATED)

December 31, 2018

ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance amends the existing FASB Accounting Standards Codification, creating a new Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer.The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

2.INVENTORY

At December 31, 2018, inventory consisted of the following:

	2018
Raw Materials	$	3,113,347
Finished Goods	8,242,124
	$	11,355,471

Inventory balances above include an estimate for indirect inventory costs such as packaging and freight (burden rate). During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company reviewed its estimate of the burden rate and the Company changed its methodology of applying burden costs to the inventory from a 12-month moving average to a 3-month moving average to better reflect the inventory value. No valuation allowance for inventory was deemed necessary as of December 31, 2018.

3.OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

At December 31, 2018, prepaid expenses, deposits and other current assets consisted of the following:

	2018
Vendor deposits	$	954,064
Prepaid other	43,323
	$	997,387

4.PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, NET

At December 31, 2018, property, plant and equipment, net consisted of the following:

	2018
Computers and software	$	117,678
Equipment	71,976
Furniture and fixtures	59,544
Auto	46,000
	295,198
Less accumulated depreciation	(228,027		)
	$	67,171

5.ACCRUED EXPENSES

At December 31, 2018, accrued expenses consisted of the following:

	$	4,190,495

Sales Tax Accrual

Based on the evolving state sales tax legislation, the Company continues to assess its current and potential sales tax exposure in specific jurisdictions. Management has assessed the Company’s sales tax liability as of December 31, 2018 and has determined that the liability ranges from $2,346,664 to $3,630,600. Management has concluded that as of December 31, 2018, the best estimate of the liability is $2,346,664, which is reflected in the accompanying balance sheet.

6.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases

The Company leases office space in San Diego, California under noncancelable operating leases that expire in January 31, 2020. The office space lease includes a renewal option.

Minimum future lease payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year are as follows:

Year ended December 31:
2019	$	60,388
2020	5,045
	$	65,433

Rent expense totaled $154,372 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Line of Credit

The Company has a line of credit agreement with a bank of $2,000,000 with a maturity date of October 30, 2019. There were no borrowings against the line at December 31, 2018. The line of credit bears interest at the bank’s reference rate which was 5.5% as of December 31, 2018.

7.UNCERTAINTIES AND CONCENTRATIONS

Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation currently insures accounts at these institutions up to $250,000. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Customers

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company did not generate sales to any party which comprised more than 10% of total net sales for the year.

CREATIVE GENIUS, INC. dba PURA VIDA BRACELETS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS RESTATED)

December 31, 2018

Suppliers

During the year ended December 31, 2018, respective purchases from three suppliers each represented an excess of 10% of the Company’s purchases during the year. During the year ended December 31, 2018, inventory purchases from three suppliers were $9,035,140, $5,747,109 and $4,757,123 which were 22%, 14% and 11% of total purchases, respectively.

8.CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

In October 2018, the Company changed its method of accounting for raw materials inventory from an indirect method to a direct method. The new method was adopted because management believes the new method provides a more precise measurement of its inventory and cost of sales. This resulted in an adjustment to inventory and retained earnings in the amount of $1,620,662 at January 1, 2018.

9.RESTATEMENT

The Company has restated its previously issued 2018 financial statements to correct misstatements related to inventory on hand, inventory in-transit and accrued sales tax liability at December 31, 2018. The following is a summary of the restatement for 2018:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018

1.ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations and Corporate Structure

Creative Genius, Inc. dba Pura Vida Bracelets, (the “Company”) was founded and incorporated in the state of California in 2010. The Company is a retail business that sells a variety of bracelets, apparel, jewelry and other accessories. The Company’s operations are based in California.

On July 16, 2019, a seventy-five percent (75%) ownership interest in the Company was acquired by Vera Bradley Inc (“Vera Bradley”). On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a put/call transaction for the remaining 25% following the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the transaction until the tenth anniversary thereof. Subsequent to the July 16, 2019 transaction date, the Company began operating as a majority-owned subsidiary of Vera Bradley.

Basis of Presentation

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when an order has been received, the product has been shipped, the selling price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and when both title and risk of loss transfer to the customer, provided that no significant obligations remain. Sales revenues do not include sales taxes collected from the customer. Sales are presented net of credits for returns, discounts, allowances and other chargebacks that result in deductions either from invoiced amounts or subsequent billings to customers. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, such credits totaled $5,913,585 and $4,575,654, respectively.

The Company maintains a monthly club membership program whereby members pay six or twelve months in advance for monthly shipment of product with advanced payments recognized as deferred revenue. Upon monthly shipment of club membership product, revenue is recognized equally over each month with a corresponding reduction in the deferred revenue balance. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, deferred revenue consisted of $1,076,840 and $937,938, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and investments that are readily convertible into cash and have original maturities of three months or less. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 cash and cash equivalents were $1,680,756 and $1,277,827 respectively.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and customer-specific identification and believes that collections of receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, are reasonably assured. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $33,736 and $74,216 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or net realizable value.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Costs incurred for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and expenditures for major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated remaining useful lives.

Income Taxes

The Company is taxed under the provisions of subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions, the Company does not pay federal corporate income taxes on its taxable income. However, the Company is subject to California franchise tax equal to the greater of 1.5% of taxable income or $800.

Under the provisions of subchapter S, the shareholders are liable for individual federal and state income taxes on the Company's taxable income. The Company may disburse funds necessary to satisfy the shareholders’ estimated personal income tax liabilities.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2013. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. To the extent accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction of the overall income tax provision in the period that such determination is made.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising cost for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $11,956,627 and $6,841,731, respectively.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified on the statement of operations within “Sales, net” and were $1,520,228 and $836,693 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The associated shipping and handling costs of $4,474,763, and $3,333,756 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Litigation

From time to time, the Company may become involved in disputes, litigation and other legal actions. The Company estimates the range of liability related to pending litigation where the amount and range of loss can be estimated. The Company records its best estimate of a loss when the loss is considered probable. Where a liability is probable and there is a range of estimated loss with no best estimate in the range, the Company records a charge equal to at least the minimum estimated liability for a loss contingency when both of the following conditions are met: (i) information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements and (ii) the range of loss can be reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2018, there was a litigation settlement of $145,000 related to matters for which a loss accrual was recorded and included in accrued expenses of the accompanying balance sheets.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update requires lessees to recognize at the lease commencement date a lease liability, which is the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use assets, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. This update is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early application

is permitted for all nonpublic business entities upon issuance. Management has not yet completed their analysis of the potential impact of this new guidance on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance amended the existing FASB Accounting Standards Codification, creating a new Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. ASU 2014-09 is now effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for nonpublic entities. Management has not yet completed their analysis of the potential impact of this new guidance on the Company’s financial statements.

EX-99.3

Exhibit 99.3

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The following unaudited condensed combined statements of operations are based on the historical condensed consolidated statements of operations of Vera Bradley, Inc. (the “Company” or “Vera Bradley”) and the historical condensed statements of operations of Creative Genius, Inc. (“Pura Vida”) as adjusted to give effect to the July 16, 2019 acquisition of a majority interest in Pura Vida (the “Transaction”). The Company did not include a pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as the Transaction is reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 3, 2019, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The Company operates on a fiscal year that ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. Prior to the Transaction, Pura Vida operated on a calendar year. The pro forma financial information was combined using the respective fiscal year of each entity as the year end of the entities differs by 93 days or less, as permitted under the rules of S-X Article 11. The pro forma financial information for the most recent fiscal year combines the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019 with Pura Vida’s statements of operations for the calendar year ended December 31, 2018. The pro forma financial information for the subsequent year-to-date interim period combines the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended August 3, 2019 with Pura Vida’s unaudited condensed statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019. These unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations give effect to the Transaction as of it had occurred at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2019, or February 4, 2018.

The pro forma financial information is intended to provide a sense for what the Company’s operating results may have been if the Pura Vida acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2019.The pro forma financial information is not indicative of the results that would have been reflected had the transaction actually occurred as of that date, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company’s future results. The financial information includes expense related to supplemental officer wages and fully indemnified state sales tax matters for time periods before the acquisition date. The Company does not expect these items to have a continuing impact on its consolidated financial statements.

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

• the historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019 filed with the SEC on April 2, 2019;

• the unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended August 3, 2019 filed with the SEC on September 11, 2019;

• the historical financial statements and accompanying notes of Pura Vida for the calendar year ended December 31, 2018 included in this Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K; and

• the unaudited historical financial statements and accompanying notes of Pura Vida for the six months ended June 30, 2019 also included in this Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K.

Note 1 - Description of the Transaction

On July 16, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of a seventy-five percent (75%) ownership interest in Creative Genius, Inc. or “Pura Vida” (the “Transaction”) in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $75 million, subject to certain adjustments, including working capital. Pura Vida, based in La Jolla, California, is a rapidly growing, digitally native, and highly engaging lifestyle brand that deeply resonates with its loyal consumer following. The Pura Vida brand has a differentiated and expanding offering of bracelets, jewelry, and other lifestyle accessories. The Company believes that the acquisition will strengthen the Company by providing increased product diversification and future growth opportunities partially as a result of resource and knowledge-sharing.

In accordance with the Interest Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to a contingent payment of up to $22.5 million payable during the first quarter of calendar year 2020 based on calendar year 2019 adjusted EBITDA of Pura Vida, as defined in the Interest Purchase Agreement. The Company’s existing available cash, cash equivalents, and investments funded the purchase price due at the closing of the Transaction.

On July 16, 2019, as contemplated by the Interest Purchase Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and the owners of the remaining twenty-five percent (25%) ownership interest in Pura Vida (the “Sellers”) which was not acquired by the Company (the “Remaining Pura Vida Interest”) entered into a Put/Call Agreement (the “Put/Call Agreement”). Pursuant to the Put/Call Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Sellers have the right to sell all of the Remaining Pura Vida Interest to the Company, and the Company has the right to purchase all of the Remaining Pura Vida Interests from Sellers, in each case generally at any time following the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the Transaction until the tenth anniversary thereof. The purchase price for any Remaining Pura Vida Interest put to, or called by, the Company will be determined based on the arithmetic average of a multiple of adjusted EBITDA of Pura Vida and a multiple of adjusted EBITDA of the Company, as defined in the Put/Call Agreement, over the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which an exercise notice is delivered by a relevant party. In the event of a change in control of the Company, the parties may exercise a portion of their put and call rights prior to the fifth anniversary of the closing date (as defined in the Put/Call Agreement).

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 Business Combinations. The adoption of ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers had an immaterial impact on the Pura Vida historical statements of operations and ASC 842 Leases had no impact on the Pura Vida historical statements of operations.

The Company operates on a fiscal year that ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. Prior to the Transaction, Pura Vida operated on a calendar year. The pro forma financial information was combined using the respective fiscal year of each entity as the year end of the entities differs by 93 days or less, as permitted under the rules of S-X Article 11. The pro forma financial information for the most recent fiscal year combines the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019 with Pura Vida’s statements of operations for the calendar year ended December 31, 2018. The pro forma financial information for the subsequent year-to-date interim period combines the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended August 3, 2019 with Pura Vida’s unaudited condensed statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019. These unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations give effect to the Transaction as of it had occurred at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2019, or February 4, 2018.

The pro forma adjustments made to the historical condensed consolidated statements of operations include adjustments which give effect to events that are directly attributable to the transaction and are factually supportable. These pro forma adjustments include preliminary definite-lived intangible asset amortization that exceeds one year and acquisition-related transaction costs reflected in the historical financial statements. Refer to Note 3 and Note 5 for additional information regarding the preliminary purchase price allocation and pro forma adjustments, respectively. The Company did not include adjustments for the amortization of the step-up in inventory basis as this adjustment is short-term and will not have a continuing impact on operations. In addition, as further described in Note 4 herein, certain reclassification adjustments were made to Pura Vida’s historical statements of operations to conform to the Company’s presentation.

The financial information includes expense related to supplemental officer wages and fully indemnified state sales tax matters for time periods before the acquisition date. The Company does not expect these items to have a continuing impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 - Estimated Consideration and Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The following preliminary schedule summarizes the consideration paid for Pura Vida, the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, and the fair value of the contingent consideration related to the earn-out provision. The accounting for the acquisition is preliminary as the Company has not yet finalized the working capital purchase price adjustment or the valuation of the aforementioned items. The final valuation could differ materially from the preliminary schedule summarized below. These preliminary values are reflected in the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the period ending August 3, 2019 previously filed with the SEC.

The definite-lived intangible assets subject to amortization include customer relationships and non-competition agreements totaling a preliminary value of $25.3 million. The preliminary weighted average amortization period is 3.6 years and 5.0 years for customer relationships and non-competition agreements, respectively. The Company did not include customer relationships with less than a one year amortization period in the pro forma adjustments. The preliminary amortization period and preliminary valuation may change materially during the measurement period; therefore, the related amortization expense could differ from the estimates used in the pro forma adjustments herein.

Note 4 - Reclassifications of Pura Vida's Historical Statements of Operations

Adjustments were made to Pura Vida's historical statements of operations to conform to the financial statement presentation of the Company. These adjustments include reclassifying fulfillment costs from selling, general, and administrative expenses to cost of sales, reclassifying items from selling, general, and administrative expenses to interest expense, and reclassifying depreciation and amortization to selling, general, and administrative expenses.
