MERITAGE HOSPITALITY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On November 30, 1997, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, St. Clair Inn,
Inc., sold real and personal property including (i) the hotel and restaurant
facility (known as the St. Clair Inn) located at 500 North Riverside, St. Clair,
Michigan (the "Hotel"), (ii) the fixtures, furniture, furnishings, equipment and
supplies used in the operation of the Hotel, and (iii) certain other real and
personal property owned by St. Clair Inn, Inc. located adjacent to the Hotel
(collectively, the "Assets"). The Assets were sold to Waterfront Hotel Ventures,
L.L.C. and its affiliate, S.C. Land Acquisitions, L.L.C., both of whom have no
relation to the Company. The Assets were sold for $3,800,000 in cash pursuant to
the terms of purchase and sale agreements dated October 22, 1997.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 1997
reflects this disposition as if it occurred and the escrowed funds had been
released on that date.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the year ended
November 30, 1997 presents the historical results of the Company and the pro
forma adjustments as if the Assets had been sold on December 1, 1996.
In management's opinion, all material adjustments necessary to reflect the
transaction are presented in the pro forma adjustments. The pro forma statements
do not purport to project the Company's financial position or results of
operations at any future date or for any future period, and should be read in
conjunction with the Company's consolidated historical financial statements, and
notes thereto contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended November
30, 1996 and the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended August
31, 1997.
The pro forma adjustments are as follows:
1. To reflect the receipt of the escrowed sale proceeds and the
coincident paydown of long-term debt, which occurred on December 2,
1997. The audited November 30, 1997 balance sheet reflects the sale of
the Assets and the related receivable of sale proceeds.
2. To remove the operations of the St. Clair Inn for the year ended
November 30, 1997, thereby, reflecting the consolidated operating
results had the sale been consummated on December 1, 1996.
3. To remove the gain on the sale of the Assets and the extraordinary
item (non-recurring charge) associated with the early retirement of
long-term debt.
4. To remove the interest expense related to the reduction of long-term
debt described in adjustment number 1 above.
