NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands)
NOTE 1--GENERAL
USA Floral Products, Inc. ("USA Floral") was founded in April 1997 to create a
national consolidator and operator of floral products distribution businesses.
On October 10, 1997 USA Floral commenced an initial public offering of common
stock (the "Offering"). At that same time , USA Floral acquired the Founding
Companies using cash and Common Stock (the "Acquisitions"). The closing of the
Acquisitions and the Offering occurred on October 16, 1997.
For financial statement purposes, USA Floral has been identified as the
accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the historical financial statements represent
those of USA Floral prior to the Acquisitions and the Offering. The
Acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
The pro forma financial information for the three months and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1997, includes the results of USA Floral
combined with the Founding Companies as if the Acquisitions had occurred on
January 1 of each respective period. This pro forma combined financial
information includes the effects of (a) the Acquisitions, (b) the Offering, (c)
establishment of liability for S Corporation distributions to be paid in
connection with the merger and to reflect normal S Corporation distributions
which occurred subsequent to September 30, 1997 (d) certain reductions in
salaries, bonuses and benefits to the former owners of the Founding Companies
which they agreed would take effect as of the Acquisitions (e) amortization of
goodwill resulting from the Acquisitions (f) the interest expense, depreciation,
rental expense and real estate tax expense on real estate purchased from and
distributed to certain stockholders of the Founding Companies.
The pro forma adjustments are based on estimates, available information and
certain assumptions and may be revised as additional information becomes
available. The pro forma financial data do not purport to represent what USA
Floral's financial position or results of operations would actually have been if
such transactions in fact had occurred on those dates and are not necessarily
representative of USA Floral's financial position or results of operations for
any future period. Since the Founding Companies were not under common control or
management, historical combined results may not be comparable to, or indicative
of, future performance.
The regulations for unaudited interim financial statements such as those in
this report allow certain information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for year end financial statements to be excluded.
The Company believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these
interim statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature.
These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes included in the Company's Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (File No. 39969) (the "Registration Statement").
NOTE 2--ACQUISITION OF FOUNDING COMPANIES
The following table sets forth the consideration paid (a) in cash and (b) in
shares of Common Stock to the common stockholders of each of the Founding
Companies, the allocation of the Consideration to net assets acquired and
resulting goodwill. For purposes of computing the estimated purchase price for
accounting purposes, the value of shares is based upon the initial public
offering price of $13. The total Purchase Consideration does not reflect:
(i) certain S Corporation distributions totaling $4,596 constituting
substantially all of the undistributed earnings of the Founding Companies that
are S Corporations to their stockholders and tax payments on current earnings of
such Founding Companies ("S Corporation Distributions"), (ii) the assumption of
an estimated tax liability of approximately $0.5 million of one of the Founding
Companies or (iii) contingent consideration related to earn out
5
<PAGE>
arrangements included in the definitive agreements for American Florist and
Monterey Bay. These arrangements provide for the Company to pay additional
Consideration of up to $0.5 million in cash and shares of common stock with an
aggregate value of $5.4 million, based on 1997 earnings before interest and
taxes.
The purchase price has been allocated to the Company's historical assets and
liabilities based on their respective carrying values, with the exception of
acquired property at certain of the entities, as these carrying values are
deemed to represent fair market value of these assets and liabilities. The fair
market value of the properties acquired was determined via an independent
valuation by a third party. Additionally, adjustments have been made for S
Corporation distributions subsequent to September 30, 1997, debt assumed as
part of property purchased and the establishment of deferred income tax
liabilities and assets assumed in the transactions for purposes of determining
the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired. The Company does
not anticipate that the final allocation of purchase price will differ
significantly from that presented.

NOTE 4--CREDIT FACILITY
In October 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with a syndicate of
lenders for whom Bankers Trust (BT) is agent, pursuant to which the lenders will
provide the Company a $100.0 million Credit Facility. Amounts outstanding under
the Credit Facility are to bear interest, at the Company's option, at BT's base
rate plus and applicable margin of up to 0.625% or a eurodollar rate plus an
applicable margin of up to 1.875%.
The Credit Facility will be used to fund acquisitions, capital expenditures
and working capital requirements. Under the terms of the Credit Facility the
Company is required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants
including restrictions on mergers, acquisitions, dispositions and similar
transactions within certain parameters, sale-leaseback transactions, lease
payments, dividends, voluntary prepayments and amendments of other debt,
transactions with affiliates, investments, creation of liens, capital
expenditures and material amendments of organization documents, as well as
various financial covenants customary for transaction of this type, including
ratios of total debt to cash flow and cash flow to fixed charges.
NOTE 5--CAPITAL STOCK
On October 10, 1997 USA Floral sold 5,750,000 shares of Common Stock to the
public at $13.00 per share (the Offering). The net proceeds to USA Floral from
the Offering (after deducting underwriting commissions and offering expenses)
were approximately $63,582,500. Of this amount, $42,363,000 was used to pay the
cash portion of the purchase prices of the Founding Companies. An additional $4
million was paid for S-corporation distributions for CFX.
NOTE 6--EARNINGS PER SHARE
For historical periods through September 30, 1997, USA Floral's results of
operations compared to its Common Stock result in earnings per share amounts
that are not meaningful. As a result, historical earnings per share for these
periods have not been presented.
The computation of pro forma net income per share for the three months and
nine months ended September 30, 1997 is based on 7,738,819 shares of Common
Stock outstanding, which is calculated as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

NOTE 7--INCOME TAXES
Prior to the Acquisitions, certain Founding Companies' stockholders were taxed
under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these
provisions, the Stockholders paid income taxes on their proportionate share of
such Founding Company's earnings. Because the stockholders were taxed directly,
the Founding Company paid no federal income tax and only certain state income
taxes. Upon consummation of the Aquisitions, the Founding Companies will begin
to pay federal corporate and state corporate income taxes.
The Company intends to file a consolidated federal income tax return which
includes the operations of the Founding Companies for periods subsequent to the
acquisition date. The Founding Companies will each file a "short period"
federal income tax return through their respective acquisition dates.
The provision for income taxes included in the pro forma statements of
operation for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997
is an estimate of the federal and state taxes that would have been applicable to
the Company had the Acquisitions occurred at the Beginning of each respective
period. The tax rates indicated by these provisions differ from statutory rates
primarily because amortization of goodwill related to the Acquisitions is not
deductible for tax purposes.
NOTE 8--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that have arisen in the
ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that any of these
proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial position or
results of operations of the Company.
NOTE 9--NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share ("SFAS No. 128"). For the
Company, SFAS No. 128 will be effective for the year ended December 31, 1997.
SFAS No. 128 simplifies the standards required under current accounting rules
for computing earnings per share and replaces the presentation of primary
earnings per share and fully diluted earnings per share with a presentation of
basic earnings per share ("basic EPS") and diluted earnings per share ("diluted
EPS"). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is determined by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities and other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to
fully diluted earnings per share under current accounting rules. The
implementation of SFAS No. 128 is not expected to have a materiel effect on the
Company's earnings per share as determined under current accounting rules.

Pro Forma Combined Results of Operations
- ----------------------------------------
U.S.A. Floral Products, Inc.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Nine Months Ended September
30, 1996
Net Sales. Net sales increased to $139.5 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from $132.6 million in the nine months ended September 30,
1996, an increase of $6.9 million, or 5.2%. This increase was primarily driven
by CFX and Flower Trading, which accounted for $4.0 million of the increase as
a result of increased sales volume, higher prices for certain products, and a
fuel surcharge fee related to airline shipments that was added to customer
invoices, and a $2.9 million increase at Monterey Bay as a result of increases
in volume primarily due to additional promotional activities. These increases
were partially offset by a decrease at Houff as a result of the closing of its
wholesale distribution facility in Atlanta, Georgia in October 1996.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased to $99.3 million in the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 from $95.1 million in the nine months ended September
30, 1996, an increase of $4.2 million, or 4.4%, primarily as a result of the
increased sales. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased to
71.2% in the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from 71.8% in the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. The decrease in costs of sales as a
percentage of sales is primarily a result of the Founding Companies obtaining
more favorable prices, partially due to increased volume purchasing, better
inventory management and reduced freight costs.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative
expenses increased to $32.2 million in the nine months ended September 30,
1997 from $31.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1996, an
increase of $0.6 million, or 1.9%. The increase was primarily a result of
increased personnel costs to support the increase in sales. As a percentage of
net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 23.0% in
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from 23.8% in the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 primarily as a result of spreading fixed costs over
increased sales.
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 1996
Net Sales. Net sales increased to $36.5 million in the three months ended
September 30, 1997 from $35.4 million for the three months ended September 30,
1996, an increase of $1.1 million or 3.2%. This increase was primarily driven by
Monterey Bay Bouquet which accounted for $0.9 million of the increase as the
result of increased sales volume primarily due to promotional activities. This
increase was partially offset by a decrease at Houff primarily as a result of
the closing of its Atlanta facility in October 1996, which accounted for $0.5
million of sales in the three months ended September 30, 1996, and increases at
other companies.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased to $25.7 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1997 from $25.0 million in the three months ended September
30, 1996, an increase of $0.7 million or 2.6%, primarily as a result of
increased sales. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased to 70.4% in
the three months ended September 30, 1997 from 70.8% in the three months ended
September 30, 1996, primarily as a result of the Founding Companies obtaining
more favorable prices, partially due to increased volume purchasing, better
inventory management and freight costs, and margin improvement due to
promotional activities.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling general and administrative
expenses increased to $10.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 1997
from $10.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of
$0.2 million or 1.5%. The increase resulted primarily from increased personnel
costs to support the increase in sales. As a percentage of sales, selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased to 28.4% in the three months ended
September 30, 1997 from 28.8% in the three months ended September 30, 1996
