NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be
read in conjunction with historical financial statements of The Quaker Oats
Company and Snapple Beverage Corp. contained in each company's Annual
Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The pro forma
information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not
necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that
would have occurred had the Merger been consummated in accordance
with the assumptions set forth below, nor is it necessarily indicative of
future operating results or financial position.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma combined income statements for the year ended
June 30, 1994 and for the six months ended December 31, 1994 present the
consolidated results of operations assuming that the Merger had been
consummated as of July 1, 1993. Snapple results for the full year ended
June 30, 1994 have been derived from Snapple's annual and quarterly reports
in order to present them on a fiscal year basis consistent with Quaker's
year end. Snapple's previous year end was December 31. Quaker's results
for the six months ended December 31, 1994 include Snapple activity from
the date of acquisition, December 6, 1994. Snapple results included in
the pro forma for the six months ended December 31, 1994 are for the
period July 1, 1994 through December 5, 1994. The financial information
for Snapple contains certain reclassifications made to conform to Quaker's
classification.
Unallocated Purchase Price and Nonrecurring Charges
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information reflects
preliminary allocations of the purchase price and is subject to revision
after additional studies and appraisals are completed. The pro forma
income statements do not reflect any material nonrecurring charges or
credits which may result directly from the acquisition. Nonrecurring items
of this nature, if any, would be separately disclosed in the financial
statements within the twelve months following the acquisition.
Two-for-one Stock Split-up
Per share information and average number of common shares outstanding have
been restated to reflect the November 1994 two-for-one stock split-up.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(continued)
Pro Forma Adjustments
Pro forma adjustments reflect additional amortization of goodwill resulting
from the preliminary purchase price allocation and additional interest
expense resulting from the debt to finance the acquisition. Goodwill in
this analysis is being amortized over 40 years. The amount of goodwill and
the amortization period may change once the Company completes the
allocation of the purchase price. The pro forma interest expense
adjustment assumes that $1.4 billion of debt is in short-term borrowings
and $300.0 million is in long-term financing. Interest expense is
calculated using rates in effect at the time the borrowings are assumed to
be outstanding. The short-term rates used are the actual rates that the
Company paid during fiscal 1994 and the first six months of fiscal 1995.
The long-term interest rate used is the estimated rate that the Company
could have obtained in early fiscal 1994. The pro forma tax provision for
the six months ended December 31, 1994 includes an adjustment to
reflect the estimated effective tax rate assuming the acquisition had
occurred on July 1, 1993.
