Exhibit 99.2

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On July 7, 2015, Ferro Corporation (“Ferro” or the “Company”) acquired the entire share capital of Corporación Química Vhem, S.L., Dibon USA, LLC and Ivory Corporation, S.A. (together with their direct and indirect subsidiaries, the “Acquired Business” or “Nubiola”) pursuant to a definitive agreement dated April 29, 2015. See Note 1 to this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information for additional information on the Transaction (as defined herein). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented to illustrate the effects of the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Nubiola by the Company and certain contemporaneous financing transactions (collectively, the “Transaction”). Historically, the Acquired Business has formed part of Grupo Nubiola (the “Nubiola Group”).

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2015, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, and for the three months ended March 31, 2015, are based upon, derived from and should be read in conjunction with the historical audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014 (which are available in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014), the historical audited combined financial statements of the Nubiola Group for the year ended December 31, 2014 (which the Company has filed as Exhibit 99.1 in its Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed September 22, 2015), and the historical unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 (which are available in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2015).

 The Company prepares its financial information in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) with all amounts stated in U.S. dollars. The Nubiola Group’s historical combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Spain (“Spanish GAAP”).   The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect certain adjustments to Nubiola Group’s financial statements to align those financials with Ferro’s U.S. GAAP accounting policies.  These adjustments reflect Ferro’s best estimates based upon the information currently available. The Nubiola Group’s financial statements have been translated from Euros to U.S. Dollars using historical exchange rates.  See Note 4 for the translation of Nubiola Group’s historical financial statements.

The Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information set forth below gives effect to the closing of the Acquisition for a purchase price of €161 million (approximately $177 million) in cash, which was funded with a combination of the Company’s cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions which management believes are reasonable under the circumstances and which are described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Under ASC 805, generally all assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their acquisition date fair value. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the fair value of Nubiola’s identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on a preliminary estimate of fair value. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recognized as goodwill. Management believes the fair values recognized for the assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed are based on reasonable estimates and assumptions.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the three months ended March 31, 2015, assume that the Transaction occurred on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2015, assumes that the Transaction occurred on March 31, 2015. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of the combined financial position or results of operations that would have been realized had the Transaction occurred as of the dates indicated, nor is it meant to be indicative of any anticipated combined financial position or future results of operations that the Company will experience after the Transaction. In addition, the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not include any expected cost savings, operating synergies, or revenue enhancements that may be realized subsequent to the Transaction, or the impact of any non-recurring activity and transaction-related or integration-related costs.

This unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes and assumptions, as well as the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company and the Nubiola Group as referenced herein.

Ferro Corporation and Subsidiaries

1. Description of Transactions

On April 29, 2015, Ferro Corporation (“Ferro” or the “Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Comercial Química Dibón, S.L., Mr. Ricardo Nubiola Bellido, Mr. Raimundo Nubiola Bellido, Mr. Andrés Nubiola Bellido, Mr. José-Oriol Nubiola Bellido, Mrs. Núria Nubiola Bellido, Mr. Juan María Caral Nubiola, Mrs. Gloria Nubiola Bellido, Mrs. Mercedes Nubiola Bellido, Mrs. Montserrat Nubiola Bellido, Corporación Financiera Arán, S.L., Olarte, S.L., Mernube, S.L., Glornube, S.L., Agencia Inmobiliaria La Finca, S.L., Corporación Química Vhem, S.L. and Dibon USA, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”) to purchase the entire share capital of Corporación Química Vhem, S.L., Dibon USA, LLC and Ivory Corporation, S.A. (together with their direct and indirect subsidiaries, the “Acquired Business” or “Nubiola”). Nubiola is a worldwide producer of specialty inorganic pigments and the world’s largest producer of Ultramarine Blue.  Nubiola has approximately 750 employees globally. Nubiola manufactures product in facilities in Spain, Romania, Colombia and India and utilizes sales offices in various countries including the Americas, Europe/Middle East/Asia and Asia Pacific (“APAC”), and distributor relationships around the world. Nubiola product segments include the following:

Ultramarines: Blue, violet and pink pigments with a wide range of standard and higher value-added uses including packaging, cosmetics and coatings.

Iron Oxides: Red, yellow, black and brown pigments used in construction, coatings and plastics.

Corrosion Inhibitors: Coatings that prevent corrosion and rust in various metal components exposed to electrochemical action or water.

Other product groups include Chrome Yellows and Molybdate Oranges, Chrome Oxide Greens, Bismuth Vandates / Blends and Chrome Sulphates.  

Historically, the Acquired Business has formed part of Grupo Nubiola (the “Nubiola Group”). The assets and liabilities of the Nubiola Group which were not acquired consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, inter-company loans among members of the Nubiola Group, certain land and buildings, and certain long-term financial investments. 

On July 7, 2015, the Company consummated the acquisition of Nubiola pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement for a purchase price of  €161 million (approximately $177 million). The acquisition was funded with a combination of the Company’s excess cash on hand and borrowings of additional $105 million under the Company’s existing revolving credit facility. Amounts which reference the transfer of consideration are translated from Euro to U.S. dollars using the July 7, 2015, spot rate of $1.1014 to €1.00.

2. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and was based on the historical financial information of the Company and the Nubiola Group. The acquisition method of accounting, based on ASC 805, uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”). The historical consolidated financial information of Ferro has been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give effect to pro forma events that are (i) directly attributable to the acquisition, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results.

ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes the framework for measuring fair value for any asset acquired or liability assumed under U.S. GAAP, expands disclosures about fair value measurements and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measures. Fair value is defined in ASC 820 as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date”. This is an exit price concept for the valuation of an asset or liability. Market participants are assumed to be buyers or sellers in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Fair value measurement for an asset assumes the highest and best use by these market participants, and as a result, assets may be required to be recorded which are not intended to be used or sold and/or assets may be required to be valued at a fair value measurement that does not reflect management’s intended use for those assets. Fair value measurements can be highly subjective and it is possible that the application of reasonable judgment could result in different assumptions and a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances.

F-6

 


 

ASC 805 requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date.

3. Accounting Policies

Acquisition accounting rules require evaluation of certain assumptions and estimates, as well as determination of financial statement classifications which are completed during the measurement period as defined in current accounting standards. Adjustments were made to translate the financial statements of Nubiola Group from Euro into U.S. dollars, as set out further in Note 4. During the preparation of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, management performed a preliminary analysis of Nubiola Group’s accounting policies. Accordingly, this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information assumes no material differences in accounting policies between the two companies. Management will conduct a final review of Nubiola’s accounting policies in an effort to determine if differences in accounting policies require adjustment or reclassification of Nubiola’s results of operations or require reclassification of assets or liabilities to conform to the Company’s accounting policies and classifications, or other adjustments which may be required by acquisition accounting rules. As a result of that review, management may identify differences that, when conformed, could have a material impact on this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

4. Reconciliation to U.S. GAAP of Nubiola Group’s Historical Financial Information:

Nubiola Group’s historical financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Spanish GAAP.  Adjustments have been made to align Nubiola Group’s historical financial statements with the Company’s U.S. GAAP accounting policies. These adjustments represent the Company’s best estimates based upon available information.

Nubiola Group’s financial information reflected in the pro forma financial information has been translated from Euro into U.S. dollars using the following historical exchange rates: 

December 31, 2014 Average:1.3289

March 31, 2015 Average:1.1271

The impact of transaction costs already incurred has not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations since these

5(f)   Represents the income tax effect of the pro forma adjustments related to the Acquisition calculated using the statutory income tax rate in the United States and Spain of 36.7% and 30%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 and of 36.7% and 28%, for the three months ended March 31, 2015, respectively.  The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different depending on the mix of post-acquisition income and other activities.

5(g)  As stated above, the Company borrowed an additional $105 million under its revolving credit facility to finance the Acquisition. Interest on the revolving credit facility accrues at a variable rate, at the Company’s option, either a base rate or a LIBOR rate plus an applicable variable margin. This adjustment represents incremental interest expense of $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, on additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility as a result of the Transaction. An increase or decrease of 12.5 basis points in the interest rate would impact the interest expense by $0.1 million, annually.

6. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments Related to the Acquisition

The purchase price for the Acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated relative fair values. The allocation of the purchase price discussed below is preliminary.    The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined at a later date and is dependent on a number of factors, including the final evaluation of the fair value of Nubiola’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such final adjustments, which could differ materially from the pro forma adjustments herein, may include increases or decreases to amortization resulting from the allocation of the purchase price to amortizable tangible and intangible assets, along with the related income tax effect. Amounts are translated from Euro to U.S. dollars using the Acquisition closing date, or July 7, 2015, spot rate of $1.1014 to €1.00.

6(d)  Of the total consideration, approximately, $5.8 million relates to inventory adjustments. The fair value of finished goods and work-in-process inventory represents the estimated selling price less cost to dispose and a reasonable profit allowance for completing the selling effort. The fair value of work-in-process inventory also includes a reasonable profit allowance for completing the manufacturing effort.

6(e)  Of the total consideration, approximately $37.3 million relates to fixed assets adjustments. The fair value estimate for fixed assets is preliminary and is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, based on the most advantageous market for the asset (i.e., its highest and best use). This preliminary fair value estimate could include assets that are not intended to be used, may be sold or are intended to be used in a manner other than their best use. For purposes of the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, it is assumed that all assets will be used in a manner that represents their highest and best use. The final fair value determination for fixed assets may differ from this preliminary determination.

6(f)  Of the total consideration, approximately $26.7 million relates to identified intangible assets. The fair value estimate for identifiable intangible assets is preliminary and is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, based on the most advantageous market for the asset (i.e., its highest and best use). This preliminary fair value estimate could include assets that are not intended to be used, may be sold or are intended to be used in a manner other than their best use. For purposes of the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, it is assumed that all assets will be used in a manner that represents their highest and best use. The final fair value determination for identified intangibles may differ from this preliminary determination.

The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is determined primarily using the “Relief from Royalty Method”, which requires identifying the hypothetical cash flows generated by an assumed royalty rate that a third party would pay to license, and discounting them back to the valuation date.

6(g)  Prior to the Acquisition, Nubiola historical balance sheet included $2.6 million of goodwill and  $0.2 million of intangible assets. As a result of the Transaction, goodwill is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the consideration transferred and the values assigned to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed and is primarily a result of anticipated synergies.  

6(h)  Reflects long-term deferred income tax liabilities resulting from fair value adjustments. The estimates of deferred tax liabilities were determined based on the book and tax basis differences of the fair value step-ups attributable to the net assets acquired. This estimate of deferred income tax liabilities is preliminary and is subject to change based upon management’s final determination of the fair values of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired by jurisdiction.

6(iRepresents the elimination of $0.4 million of accounts receivable relating of sales from Nubiola to the Company, which would be eliminated as intercompany transactions for Nubiola and the Company on a combined basis. 

6(j) To record nonrecurring acquisition-related transaction costs incurred by the Company of $1.9 million. In accordance with ASC 805, acquisition-related transaction costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet reflects the $1.9 million of costs as a reduction of cash with a corresponding decrease in retained earnings.
