INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Unaudited
As described under Item 2 of this report as originally filed on October 20,
1997, Applied Power Inc. (the "Company"), through a wholly-owned subsidiary,
acquired by means of a tender offer and follow-up merger all outstanding shares
of common stock of Versa Technologies, Inc. ("Versa/Tek") at a price of $24.625
per share in cash.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and
statement of earnings (the "pro forma statements") give effect to the
acquisition of Versa/Tek using the purchase method of accounting and are based
on the estimates and assumptions set forth in the notes to such pro forma
statements. The pro forma statements have been prepared by the Company utilizing
the historical financial statements of the Company and of Versa/Tek and
accordingly, should be read in conjunction with such historical financial
statements of the Company and notes thereto which were contained in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1997
and the audited financial statements and notes thereto of Versa/Tek,
incorporated by reference in Item 7(a) of this report.
These pro forma statements have been prepared and included herein as required by
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and are
provided for comparative purposes only. The pro forma statements are not
necessarily indicative of the future consolidated financial position and results
of operations or those which would have occurred had the acquisition been
consummated as of the dates reflected in the pro forma statements. In reviewing
the pro forma statements, the reader should consider the following:
1. The historical amounts of Versa/Tek were compiled to conform, as closely as
possible, to the fiscal year of the Company. The historical income statement
for Versa/Tek covers the twelve month period beginning July 1, 1996 through
June 30, 1997 and the historical balance sheet is as of June 30, 1997.
2. The following pro forma financial statements do not reflect any adjustments
for the various synergies or cost reductions the Company expects to achieve
as a result of the acquisition.
