The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon the information available to management as of the filing date and management estimates and are subject to assumptions and adjustments described below and in the accompanying notes to those financial statements. Management believes these assumptions and adjustments are reasonable, given the information available at the filing date. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are provided for illustrative and informational purposes only and should not be considered indicative of what the Company’s results of operations or financial condition would have been had the Transaction been completed on the dates indicated in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and do not purport to project the Company’s future results of operation or financial condition after giving effect to the Transaction. The actual financial position and results of operations of the Company may differ significantly from those reflected in the following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements for a number of reasons, including but not limited to differences between the assumptions used to prepare these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and actual amounts. The Company therefore cautions you not to place undue reliance on the following unaudited pro form condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements give effect to the Transaction in accordance with Article 11 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Regulation S-X. In May 2020, the SEC adopted Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses,” or the Final Rule. The Final Rule became effective on January 1, 2021, and the unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial information herein is presented in accordance therewith.
The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial information set forth below should be read in conjunction with the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the historical consolidated financial statements and the corresponding notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
