ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired:
The audited financial statements of Multigraphics, Inc. as of
and for the year ended July 31, 1999 and the report of the
independent public accountants filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on October 20, 1999 on Form 10-K and the
unaudited financial statements for the quarter ended October
30, 1999 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
December 3, 1999 on Form 10-Q are hereby incorporated by
reference.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information:
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial
information has been prepared to give effect to the merger of
Paragon Corporate Holdings Inc. ("Paragon") and
Multigraphics, Inc. ("Multigraphics"). The unaudited pro
forma combined statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1999 gives effect to the merger as if the merger
had occurred on January 1, 1999. The unaudited pro forma
combined statement of operations for the year ended December
31, 1999 includes the statement of operations of Paragon for
the year ended December 31, 1999; the statement of operations
of Multigraphics for the fiscal year ended July 31, 1999,
adjusted for its quarterly and monthly statements of
operations for the quarters ended October 30, 1999 and 1998
and the months of November and December of both 1999 and
1998, to reflect Multigraphics results of operations for the
twelve-month period ended December 25, 1999; and the pro
forma adjustments to reflect the combination.
The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of December
31, 1999 gives effect to the merger as if the merger had
occurred on that date. The unaudited pro forma combined
balance sheet includes the balance sheet of Paragon as of
December 31, 1999 and Multigraphics as of December 25, 1999
and the pro forma adjustments to reflect the combination.
The pro forma adjustments are based upon the "purchase method"
of accounting, available information, and particular
assumptions that Paragon believes to be reasonable. The excess
of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets
acquired is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a
30-year period.
The purchase price allocation is preliminary, therefore, final
amounts could differ from those reflected in the unaudited pro
forma combined financial information. Upon final
determination, the purchase price will be allocated to the
assets and liabilities acquired based on fair value as of the
date of the merger.
The pro forma combined financial information and accompanying
notes should be read in conjunction with the audited
historical financial statements and related notes of Paragon
included in Paragon's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
2
<PAGE> 3
ended December 31, 1999 and the audited and unaudited
financial statements and related notes of Multigraphics for
its fiscal year ending July 31, 1999 and for its quarter
ending October 30, 1999, that are incorporated by reference.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is
provided for informational purposes only in response to SEC
requirements and does not purport to be indicative of and
should not be relied upon as indicative of the financial
position or operating results that would have actually
occurred if the merger had in fact occurred at such dates or
is it necessarily indicative of future operating results or
financial position.
