NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended and are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Adams and the historical combined financial statements of Firebird and Phoenix as adjusted to give effect to the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2022 gives effect to the acquisition as if it had been consummated on June 30, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 give effect to the acquisition as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2021.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”). For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, the purchase price consideration has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Firebird and Phoenix based upon preliminary estimate of their fair values as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation and related adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are preliminary and subject to revision as further analyses are completed and additional information becomes available. The purchase price consideration as well as the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be finalized as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the closing of the acquisition.

Management believes that the assumptions used provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the acquisition, and that the pro forma adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information give appropriate effect to those assumptions.
