AS PREVIOUSLY FILED
The following pro forma consolidated statement of operations of
Applied Cellular Technology, Inc. and Subsidiaries for
the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 gives effect to the acquisition of Advanced Telecom Holdings, Inc.
as if it were effective January 1, 1995. The statements give effect to the
Acquisition under the purchase method of accounting and the assumptions in
the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial statements.
In September 1996, the Company entered into an agreement
to purchase 100% of Advanced Telecom Holdings, Inc. in exchange for
1,618,180 shares of Applied Cellular Technology, Inc's common stock,
100,000 shares of 8% redeemable preferred stock at $100 per share of
Applied Cellular Technology, Inc. and warrants evidencing the right to
purchase 1,000,000 shares of Applied Cellular Technology, Inc.'s common
stock. The shares of common stock issued were valued at 75% of the then
current market trading value of $5.00, due to the limited market of the
shares and the restricted nature of the shares. No value was attributed to
the warrants because the exercise price exceeded the fair value of the
underlying common shares. Each warrant can be exercised, at any time, and
from time to time, beginning in October 1996 until October 2001, at a price
of one warrant plus $5.31 per common share. The total value of the
investment based on the above facts was recorded at $12,022,725 plus
acquisition costs of $326,863, for a total investment of $12,349,588. The
agreement dated October 1996, called for the effective date of
the acquisition to be September 1, 1996 due to the significant control of
the Company by ACT Communications, Inc. since September 1, 1996 and the
agreement called for the profit and loss to be allocated to ACT
Communications beginning September 1,1996. The 8% preferred dividend
begins accruing on October 1,1996.
The pro forma statements may not be indicative of the results that
would have occurred if the Acquisitions had been effective on the dates
indicated or of the results that may be obtained in the future. The pro
forma statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto of the Company.
