UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts)

On August 22, 2019, Hasbro Inc. (“Hasbro”, the “Company” or “we”) entered into an agreement to acquire the issued and outstanding common shares of Entertainment One Ltd. (“eOne”) at a price of £5.60 per share (the “Acquisition”). The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the historical consolidated financial statements of Hasbro and eOne and is intended to provide you with information about how the Acquisition and related financings might have affected the Company’s historical financial statements.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in December, whereas eOne’s fiscal year ends on March 31. Due to this difference, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, which we refer to as the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, for the year ended December 30, 2018 combines the Hasbro audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 30, 2018 and the eOne unaudited financial results for the 12 months ended September 30, 2018. The eOne unaudited financial results for the twelve months ended September 30, 2018 have been calculated by subtracting its unaudited financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2017 from its audited financial results for the 12 months ended March 31, 2018, then adding the unaudited financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2018.

Additionally, the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2019 combines the Hasbro unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 and the eOne financial results for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The eOne unaudited financial results for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 have been calculated by subtracting its unaudited financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2018 from its audited financial results for the 12 months ended March 31, 2019, then adding the unaudited financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Both the full-year and nine month pro forma condensed combined statements of operation give effect to the Acquisition as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2018.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the Hasbro unaudited historical consolidated balance sheet as of September 29, 2019 and the eOne unaudited historical consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019, giving effect to the Acquisition as if it had been consummated on September 29, 2019.

We refer to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations as the pro forma financial statements.

The pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial statements. In addition, the pro forma financial statements were based on and should be read in conjunction with the following historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Hasbro and eOne for the applicable periods:

 

   

Separate unaudited historical financial statements and the related notes of Hasbro as of and for the fiscal quarter ended September 29, 2019 included in Hasbro’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 29, 2019 as well as separate historical financial statements and the related notes of Hasbro as of and for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018 included in Hasbro’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2018.

 

   

As filed as exhibits to Hasbro’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 4, 2019, the separate historical financial statements and the related notes of eOne as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, prepared in accordance with IFRS-IASB, as well as separate unaudited historical financial statements and the related notes of eOne as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

The pro forma financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information. The pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of what the combined company’s balance sheet or statement of operations actually would have been had the Acquisition been completed as of the dates indicated, nor do they purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined company. The pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or cost savings or synergies that may be achieved as a result of the Acquisition.

The pro forma financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) with Hasbro being the acquirer. The pro forma adjustments are preliminary, based upon available information and made solely for the purpose of providing these pro forma financial statements. Differences between these preliminary adjustments and the final acquisition accounting will occur and these differences could have a material impact on the future results of operations and financial position of the combined company.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

1. Description of the Acquisition

On August 22, 2019, Hasbro Inc. (“Hasbro”, the “Company” or “we”) entered into an agreement to acquire the issued and outstanding common shares of Entertainment One Ltd. (“eOne”) at a price of £5.60 per share.

To finance the Acquisition, we plan to:

 

   

Issue approximately $875.0 million of Hasbro common stock

 

   

Issue approximately $1.0 billion of term loans that will mature between 2022 and 2024

 

   

Issue approximately $2.5 billion of unsecured debt that will mature between 2022 and 2029

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the remaining cash consideration will be funded using cash on hand. For purposes of these pro forma financial statements, we have assumed a redemption of eOne’s outstanding debt securities pursuant to the various available redemption features of those debt securities. This assumption is for illustrative purposes in these pro forma financial statements only and is not an indication of any determination as to whether any such redemption will occur.

The Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

2. Basis of pro forma presentation

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”) and are based on the audited annual and unaudited interim historical financial information of Hasbro and eOne. The pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only. The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the accompanying pro forma financial statements 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 statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results.

The acquisition method of accounting uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). 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.” Fair value measurements can be highly subjective, and it is possible the application of reasonable judgment could result in different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances. The allocation of the estimated consideration is preliminary, pending finalization of various estimates and analyses. Since these pro forma financial statements have been prepared based on preliminary estimates of consideration and fair values attributable to the Acquisition, the actual amounts eventually recorded for the Acquisition, including goodwill, may differ materially from the information presented.

The preliminary allocation of the estimated consideration in these pro forma financial statements is based upon an estimated consideration of approximately $3.7 billion, inclusive of approximately $92.5 million related to eOne equity-based awards. The estimated consideration has been prepared based on the consideration of £5.60 per share, converted to $7.27 per share at a spot rate of 1.30 ($/£) on October 18, 2019. As a result, the implied value of the Acquisition consideration will fluctuate between such date and the closing date of the Acquisition.

The Company and eOne expect to incur approximately $178.8 million of transaction and financing costs in connection with the Acquisition. These costs include debt-related financing costs of $41.9 million ($18.7 million of which has been paid by the Company and was recorded within other assets as of 9/29/19), and other transaction costs totaling $136.9 million. Because the other transaction costs have no continuing impact, these costs are not included in the pro forma statement of operations, but are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

Further, the pro forma financial statements do not reflect the following items:

 

   

Restructuring or integration activities that have yet to be determined or transaction or other costs following the completion of the Acquisition that are not expected to have a continuing impact on the business of the combined company; or

 

   

The impact of possible cost or growth synergies expected to be achieved by the combined company, as there is no assurance that such cost or growth synergies will be achieved.

Accounting policies

IFRS differs in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. The following adjustments have been made to align eOne’s historical accounting policies under IFRS to Hasbro’s accounting policies under U.S. GAAP for purposes of this pro forma presentation.

 

  (A)

License renewals

When recognizing revenue from license renewals, U.S. GAAP requires that revenue be deferred until the start of the renewal period. Previously, under IFRS, eOne recognized renewal revenue on the day that the renewal agreement was signed if the license had already been transferred. For the nine months ended September 29, 2019 and for the year ended December 30, 2018, this adjustment results in a decrease in revenue of $2.2 million and $5.6 million, and a decrease in operating profit of $3.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

 

  (B)

Minimum guarantees on symbolic licenses

When recognizing revenue related to symbolic licenses where there is a guaranteed minimum amount of sales-based royalties, there are multiple acceptable accounting policies. Hasbro’s policy is to recognize the minimum guarantee ratably over the license period, with royalties recognized as earned only when the cumulative royalties exceed the guaranteed minimum in the contract. Previously, under IFRS, eOne recognized the royalties as they were earned if the royalties were expected to exceed the guaranteed minimum. For the nine months ended September 29, 2019 and for the year ended December 30, 2018, this adjustment results in a decrease in revenue of $4.4 million and $2.0 million, and a decrease in operating profit of $3.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

 

  (C)

Redeemable non-controlling interest

U.S. GAAP requires redeemable non-controlling interest for which exercise is outside the control of the issuer to be classified as temporary equity. Previously, under IFRS, eOne separately presented portions of these redeemable non-controlling interests as liabilities and equity under IFRS. This adjustment results in a $21.8 million reclassification from liabilities and equity into temporary equity.

 

  (D)

Represents other immaterial IFRS to U.S. GAAP conversion adjustments relating to leases, share based compensation, and severance.

Further review of eOne’s detailed accounting policies following the consummation of the Acquisition may identify additional differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the combined company. At this time, Hasbro is not aware of any accounting policy differences that would have a material impact on the pro forma information that are not reflected in the pro forma or IFRS to U.S. GAAP adjustments. Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of eOne to conform to the presentation of Hasbro, which are discussed in more detail in Note 3.

3. eOne Historical Financial Statement Reclasses

eOne historical balances were derived from eOne’s historical financial statements described in the introduction and are presented under IFRS and converted from British pounds to U.S. dollars based on historical exchange rates. The consolidated income statements of eOne were translated using the average exchange rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 (1.29 $/£) and the average exchange rate for the twelve months ended September 30, 2018 (1.35 $/£), respectively. The consolidated balance sheet of eOne as of June 30, 2019, was translated using the spot rate on June 30, 2019 (1.27 $/£).

Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to the historical presentation of eOne financial information in order to conform to a combined Hasbro balance sheet and statement of operations.

4. Preliminary Consideration

The preliminary consideration is calculated as follows:

 

eOne common shares outstanding as of August 22, 2019

     498,040  

Cash consideration per share

     7.27  
  

 

 

 

Total consideration for shares outstanding

     3,621,269  

Cash consideration for employee share based payment awards outstanding

     159,454  
  

 

 

 

Total cash consideration

     3,780,723  

Less: Employee awards to be recorded as future stock compensation expense

     (66,989
  

 

 

 

Total consideration transferred

     3,713,734  

The preliminary value of the consideration does not purport to represent the actual value of the total consideration that will be received by the eOne stockholders when the Acquisition is completed. Because the £5.60 per share consideration is denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency, the consideration will be revalued on the closing date of the Acquisition at the then-current GBP/USD spot rate. This requirement will likely result in a difference compared to the October 18, 2019 spot rate assumed in the calculation, and that difference may be material. For example, an increase or decrease of 10% in the spot rate on the closing date of the Acquisition from the spot rate used in these pro forma financial statements would change the value of the preliminary consideration by approximately $380 million, which would be reflected as a corresponding increase or decrease to goodwill. Based on volatility in exchange rates, a change in spot rate is reasonably possible during the period between the date of this filing and the expected closing date of the Acquisition. The Company hedged a portion of its exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates using a series of foreign exchange forward and option contracts. Based on the exchange rate of 1.30 ($/£) on October 18, 2019, the Company expects to realize hedging gains of approximately $90 million. The estimated hedge gain has been reflected as an inflow of cash within the Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet, see Note 6A below.

5. Fair Value Estimate of Assets to be Acquired and Liabilities to be Assumed

The table below represents an initial allocation of the preliminary consideration to eOne’s tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on management’s preliminary estimate of their respective fair values as of June 30, 2019. The preliminary values presented below are subject to change based on actual closing amounts and foreign exchange rates as described above, and the changes may be material.

  (H)

Represents the tax expense or benefit of U.S. GAAP adjustments and recognizing expenses related to the transaction calculated using a blended statutory income tax rate of 22.5%.

 

  (I)

Represents the deferred tax liabilities recognized on the fair value step up for new intangibles and other fair value adjustments at a blended statutory rate of 22.5%. Once the Acquisition closes, Hasbro will complete the purchase price allocation at the level of detail necessary to analyze the deferred tax assets for realizability. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting will occur and may be materially different from our estimates.

 

  (J)

Represents the write-off of historical deferred financing costs.

 

  (K)

The Company hedged a portion of its exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates using a series of foreign exchange forward and option contracts, which were marked to market. The Company expects to realize gains of approximately $90 million on these derivatives, which is discussed within Note 4. This adjustment reflects the elimination of the derivative positions and related tax benefit.

7. Adjustments to Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations

Explanations of the adjustments to the pro forma statement of operations are as follows:

 

  (A)

Represents estimated differences in amortization expense resulting from the allocation of purchase consideration to definite-lived intangible assets subject to amortization.

 

     Nine months ended      Year ended  
     September 29, 2019      December 30, 2018

Total adjustment

     11,621        17,681  

 

  (B)

Represents estimated differences in amortization expense resulting from the allocation of purchase consideration to program production costs subject to amortization.

The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet has been adjusted to report the estimated fair value of eOne’s content library (see footnote 6(B)). The pro forma condensed combined statements of operations have been adjusted to reflect the impact of production cost amortization as a result of adjusting the content library to preliminary fair value. Because the cash flows generated from recently released internally produced titles are generally higher in the earlier years following theatrical release, the film forecast method was used to estimate amortization expense. The estimated asset lives for recently released titles was estimated using a 3-10 year life, with the majority of the amortization expected to be realized in the first 1-3 years. The estimated fair value was derived on a portfolio basis rather than an individual title basis. For the larger recently released titles, we expect to use the individual film forecast method when the detailed information becomes available. The estimated asset lives for the older content library was estimated using a 10-year life. For these titles, a straight-line amortization method was used. As the pro forma financial statements do not contemplate any new content spend after the transaction date, the pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not reflect the amortization associated with any new content. As a result, approximately $200 million and $313 million of eOne content amortization during its nine months ended June 30, 2019 and twelve months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, has been eliminated, which results in a corresponding increase to pro forma earnings. However, the Company intends to invest in content at similar levels to historical spend, resulting in increased amortization expense as this content is released. As a result, the amortization expense reflected in the pro forma statement of operations may not be reflective of actual amortization expense on a go-forward basis.

  (E)

Represents the income tax effect of the pro forma and IFRS to U.S. GAAP adjustments related to the acquisition calculated using a blended statutory income tax rate of 22.5%. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different as the legal entity structure and activities of the combined company are integrated.

 

  (F)

Represents the adjustment to arrive at pro forma combined earnings per share (EPS). Refer to the calculation of EPS in Note 8 for additional details.
