THE SEAGRAM COMPANY LTD. By /s/ Neal B. Cravens -------------------- Neal B. Cravens Senior Vice President, Finance Date: October 30, 1998 3 THE SEAGRAM COMPANY LTD. CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K Index to Financial Statements Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information of The Seagram Company Ltd.: Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1998. Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Income Statement for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1998. 4 THE SEAGRAM COMPANY LTD. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION On August 25, 1998, The Seagram Company Ltd. (the "Corporation") completed the sale of Tropicana Products, Inc. and the Corporation's global juice business ("Tropicana") to PepsiCo, Inc. for cash proceeds of approximately $3.3 billion. The proceeds from the Tropicana sale will be used by the Corporation to provide part of the financing for the Corporation's acquisition of PolyGram N.V. ("PolyGram") which is expected to close in the second quarter of the Corporation's fiscal year ending June 30, 1999. In connection with the PolyGram transaction, the Corporation has agreed to make an offer (the "Offer") to acquire all issued shares, par value NLG 0.50 per share ("PolyGram Shares"), of PolyGram for per share consideration, at the election of each holder of PolyGram Shares, of either (i) 1.3772 common shares without nominal or par value ("Seagram Shares") of the Corporation (the "Share Consideration") or (ii) NLG 115, net to the seller in cash (the "Cash Consideration"); provided, that Share Consideration shall be paid in respect of 34,783,758 PolyGram Shares and Cash Consideration shall be paid in respect to all other tendered PolyGram Shares. The following Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1998 and Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 illustrate (i) the effect of the sale of Tropicana and the Offer as if such transactions had been consummated on June 30, 1998 for the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet and (ii) the effect of the sale of Tropicana, the Offer and the other transactions described below as if each had been consummated on July 1, 1997 for the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income. For purposes of the following Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements, the total purchase price of the Offer of NLG 20.7 billion is converted to US Dollars at a rate of 2.00 Dutch Guilders to 1.0 US Dollar, the payment of which is reflected as Cash Consideration of $8.35 billion and the issuance of 47,904,191 Seagram Shares valued at $2.0 billion (assuming that all PolyGram Shares are acquired in the Offer). The Offer will be accounted for as a purchase. The other transactions referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph are: - On October 21, 1997, the acquisition by Universal Studios, Inc. ("Universal") of an incremental 50% interest in the USA Networks partnership, including the Sci-Fi Channel, for $1.7 billion in cash (the "USA Networks Transaction"). The USA Networks Transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The cost of the acquisition was allocated on the basis of the estimated fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This valuation resulted in $1.6 billion of unallocated excess of cost over fair value of assets acquired which was being amortized over 40 years, and - On February 12, 1998, the sale of a 50% interest in USA Networks to USA Networks, Inc. ("USAi") and the contribution of the remaining 50% interest in USA Networks and the majority of the television assets ("UTV") of Universal, including all of Universal's domestic television production and distribution operations and 50% of the international operations of USA Networks, to USANi LLC (the "LLC") in a transaction (the "USAi Transaction") in which Universal received cash, 13.5 million shares of USAi (after giving effect to the 2 for 1 split of USAi stock on March 26, 1998), consisting of approximately 7.1 million shares of common stock and 6.4 million shares of Class B common stock which in the aggregate represented a 10.7% equity interest in USAi at date of acquisition, and a 45.8% interest in the LLC which is exchangeable for USAi common stock and Class B common stock. The USAi Transaction resulted in $82 million of unallocated excess cost over fair value of assets acquired which is being amortized over 40 years. The investment in the 7.1 million shares of USAi common stock held by Universal at June 30, 1998 is accounted for at market value ($178 million at June 30, 1998) and has an underlying historical cost of $142 million. The investment in the 6.4 million shares of Class B common stock of USAi is carried at its historical cost of $128 million. The investment in the LLC is included in investments in unconsolidated companies on the consolidated balance sheet and is accounted for under the equity method. No adjustment has been included in the pro forma amounts for any anticipated cost savings or other synergies. Pursuant to the agreement relating to the acquisition of PolyGram, PolyGram has retained a financial advisor for the purpose of selling PolyGram's film division as promptly as practicable. On October 22, 1998, Seagram announced that it had entered into an agreement in principle with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. ("MGM") to sell certain library assets of PolyGram's film division to a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MGM following Seagram's acquisition of PolyGram. Discussions with other parties regarding the sale of certain other library assets of PolyGram's film division have taken place, and Seagram is continuing to examine strategic alternatives regarding the film division's production and distribution operations. These Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with (i) the historical financial statements of PolyGram (including the notes thereto) contained in PolyGram's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 4 5 December 31, 1997, which is incorporated by reference in the Amended Form 8-K; (ii) the PolyGram unaudited consolidated interim financial data contained in PolyGram's Report on Form 6-K dated July 22, 1998, which is incorporated by reference in the Amended Form 8-K and (iii) the historical financial statements of Seagram contained in Seagram's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, as amended, which is incorporated by reference in the Amended Form 8-K. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements are presented for comparative purposes only and are not intended to be indicative of actual consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position that would have been achieved had the sale of Tropicana, the Offer, the USA Networks Transaction and the USAi Transaction been consummated as of the dates indicated above nor do they purport to indicate results which may be attained in the future. 6 THE SEAGRAM COMPANY LTD.
