INTRODUCTION
On January 1, 2019, Synalloy Corporation’s (the "Company") wholly-owned subsidiary, ASTI Acquisition, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (“ASTI”), completed the purchase of substantially all of American Stainless Tubing, Inc.'s, a North Carolina corporation ("American Stainless"), assets and operations in Statesville and Troutman, North Carolina. The purchase price for the all-cash acquisition was approximately $22,736,854, subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment. American Stainless will also receive quarterly earn-out payments for a period of three years following closing. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement between ASTI and American Stainless, earn-out payments will equate to six and one-half percent (6.5 percent) of ASTI’s revenue over the three-year earn-out period. Synalloy funded the acquisition with a new five-year $20,000,000 term note and a draw against its recently increased $100,000,000 asset based line of credit, both with Synalloy’s current lender, Branch Banking and Trust Company.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of the Company and American Stainless as of that date to illustrate the estimated effect of the acquisition on the Company's financial statements as if it had occurred on January 1, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statements of operations combines the historical consolidated statements of operations of the Company and American Stainless for the year ended December 31, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements are based on certain estimates and assumptions made with respect to the combined operations of the Company and American Stainless, which we believe are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statements of operations are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations of the Company or American Stainless that actually would have been achieved had the acquisition of American Stainless been completed on the assumed dates, or to project the Company's results of operations for any future date or period. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statements of operations give pro forma effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on the first day of the financial period presented.
The transaction is being accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Under this method, the total consideration transferred to consummate the acquisition is allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. The acquisition method of accounting requires extensive use of estimates and judgments to allocate the consideration transferred to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Accordingly, the allocation of the consideration transferred in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements is preliminary and will be adjusted upon completion of the final valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such adjustments could be significant. The final valuation is expected to be completed as soon as practicable but no later than twelve months after the closing date of the acquisition. The unaudited condensed combined consolidated pro forma statements of operations do not include the costs that the Company may incur to integrate American Stainless, and these costs may be material.
The historical consolidated financial statements of the Company have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (i) directly attributable to the acquisition, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) expected to continually impact the combined results of the Company and American Stainless. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements were derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The historical condensed combined financial information regarding American Stainless that is included in this report has been prepared by and is the responsibility of the Company. In addition, we are in the process of reviewing American Stainless' financial statement classifications for conformity with the Company's classifications. As a result of this review, it may be necessary to make additional reclassifications to the consolidated information on a prospective basis.
The statements contained in these notes that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We wish to caution the reader that these forward-looking statements, such as our expectations for future sales results or future expense changes compared with previous periods, are only predictions. These forward-looking statements may be generally identified by the use of forward-looking words and phrases such as “will,” “intends,” “may,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “should” and “expects,” and are based on our current expectations or beliefs concerning future events that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual events or results may differ materially as a result of risks and uncertainties as described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, other risks referenced in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, or other unanticipated risks. We disclaim any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
