UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited pro forma financial data presented below are derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Boise Cascade Corporation (Boise) and OfficeMax, Inc. (OfficeMax) and have been adjusted to give effect to Boise's acquisition of OfficeMax. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements use the purchase method of accounting, with Boise treated as the acquirer and as if the merger had been completed on September 30, 2003, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet information, and as if it had occurred on January 1 of each period presented for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement information. Boise's fiscal year ends on December 31 and OfficeMax's fiscal year ended on the Saturday prior to the last Wednesday in January. For purposes of preparing the unaudited pro forma information, Boise used OfficeMax's balance sheet as of October 25, 2003, and statements of income (loss) for the year ended January 25, 2003, and the 39 weeks ended October 25, 2003.
The unaudited adjustments described in Note 3 of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on available information and assumptions that Boise believes are reasonable. However, Boise has not finalized the valuation studies necessary to estimate the fair values of the assets Boise acquired and the liabilities Boise assumed in the acquisition and the related allocation of purchase price. Boise has allocated the total purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair values. Independent valuation specialists are assisting Boise in determining the fair value of a portion of these assets and liabilities.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for informational purposes only and is not intended to represent or be indicative of the consolidated results of operations or financial position that Boise would have reported had the acquisition been completed as of the dates presented, and should not be taken as representative of Boise's future consolidated results of operations or financial position. Boise expects to incur integration and reorganization costs. In accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 95-3, "Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination" those costs related to the acquired OfficeMax operations that have no future benefit will be recorded as a purchase liability. Boise has not finalized plans for the integration actions it will take. Accordingly, this pro forma information does not include all costs related to such integration. When such costs are determined, they will increase the amount of goodwill recorded in the merger. Other integration and reorganization costs will be accounted for as expenses when incurred. Boise also expects to realize operating efficiencies. The pro forma information does not reflect these potential expenses and efficiencies.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the pro forma financial position and results of operations of the combined company based upon historical financial information after giving effect to the merger and adjustments described in these footnotes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements use the purchase method of accounting, with Boise treated as the acquirer and as if the merger had been completed on September 30, 2003, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet information and as if it had occurred on January 1 of each period presented for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) information. Boise's fiscal year ends on December 31 and OfficeMax's fiscal year ended on the Saturday prior to the last Wednesday in January. For purposes of preparing the pro forma information, Boise used OfficeMax's balance sheet as of October 25, 2003, and statements of income (loss) for the fiscal year ended January 25, 2003, and the 39 weeks ended October 25, 2003. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, Boise's Statement of Income is presented before the cumulative effect of accounting changes, which totaled a net charge of $8.8 million or 15 cents per basic and diluted share.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the merger actually taken place at the dates indicated and do not purport to be indicative of the effects that may be expected to occur in the future. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements contained in Boise's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, as filed on November 13, 2003, and Boise's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, as filed on March 4, 2003.
The pro forma condensed combined financial statements of Boise and OfficeMax are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
2. Acquisition of OfficeMax
On December 9, 2003, Boise completed its acquisition of OfficeMax. Boise paid OfficeMax shareholders $1.3 billion for the acquisition, paying 60% of the purchase price in Boise common stock and 40% in cash. OfficeMax shareholders had the opportunity to elect to receive cash or stock for their OfficeMax shares. Each shareholder's election was subject to proration, depending on the elections of all OfficeMax shareholders. As a result of this proration, OfficeMax shareholders electing Boise stock received approximately .230419 share of Boise stock and $3.1746 in cash for each of their OfficeMax shares. Fractional shares were paid in cash. OfficeMax shareholders electing cash or who had no consideration preference, as well as those shareholders who made no effective election, received $9.333 in cash for each of their OfficeMax shares. After the proration, the $1.3 billion paid to OfficeMax shareholders consisted of $486.7 million in cash and the issuance of 27.3 million Boise common shares valued at $808.2 million. The value of the common shares issued was determined based on the average market price of Boise's common shares over a 10-day trading period before the acquisition closed on December 9, 2003.
The aggregate consideration paid for the acquisition was as follows (in millions):
|
|
||
---|---|---|---|
Fair value of Boise common stock issued | $ | 808.2 | |
Cash consideration for OfficeMax common shares exchanged | 486.7 | ||
Transaction costs | 20.0 | ||
1,314.9 | |||
Debt assumed by Boise | 81.6 | ||
Aggregate estimated merger consideration | $ | 1,396.5 | |
Debt assumed by Boise relates primarily to two synthetic leases for PowerMax distribution facilities. OfficeMax leased the facilities from variable interest entities. Prior to the effective date of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Interpretation No. 46 (Revised), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," these leases were accounted for as operating leases. Boise will consolidate the assets and liabilities related to these facilities. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities have been reflected in this pro forma financial information at estimated fair values as if they were already consolidated.
The cash portion of the merger consideration was funded by proceeds from Boise's offering of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes which closed in October 2003 and $150 million borrowed by Boise under an unsecured credit agreement with 13 major financial institutions, which closed in December 2003.
As of October 25, 2003, OfficeMax had an income tax valuation allowance of approximately $106 million, which represented a full valuation allowance of its net deferred tax assets. Based on an assessment of the pro forma tax position of the combined company, these pro forma financial statements assume that no valuation allowance is required. Accordingly, pro forma adjustments were made to record the net deferred tax assets and to record a tax provision for OfficeMax as if the valuation allowance had not been in place for the periods presented. In addition, for the fiscal year ended January 25, 2003, as a result of changes in tax laws, OfficeMax reversed a portion of the valuation allowance and recognized an income tax benefit of $57.5 million. This tax benefit was also eliminated in these pro forma financial statements.
Boise expects to incur integration and reorganization costs in connection with the merger. In accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 95-3, "Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination," those costs related to the acquired OfficeMax operations that have no future benefit will be recorded as purchase liabilities. Boise has not finalized plans for the integration actions it will take. Accordingly, this pro forma information does not include all costs related to such integration. It does assume that 45 acquired stores will be closed as part of the integration plan. Store closure reserves of $69.4 million are included in the pro forma adjustments. When other integration costs related to the acquired OfficeMax operations are determined, they will increase the amount of goodwill recorded in the transactions. Other integration and reorganization costs related to existing Boise operations will be accounted for as expenses when incurred. Boise also expects to realize operating efficiencies. The pro forma information does not reflect these potential expenses and efficiencies.
The allocation of the consideration paid is as follows (in millions):
|
|
|||
---|---|---|---|---|
Current assets | $ | 1,220.9 | ||
Property and equipment, net | 346.0 | |||
Goodwill | 605.5 | |||
Intangible assets | 191.8 | |||
Other assets | 8.3 | |||
Assumed liabilities | (1,057.6 | ) | ||
$ | 1,314.9 | |||
The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary. The final determination of the purchase price allocation will be based on the fair values of assets acquired and the fair values of liabilities assumed. The excess of the purchase price over the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to goodwill. The purchase price allocation will remain preliminary until Boise completes a third party valuation of significant identifiable intangible assets acquired, evaluates potential integration plans to be undertaken, and determines the fair values of other assets and liabilities acquired. The final determination of the purchase price will be completed as soon as practicable and must be completed no later than one year from the closing date of the merger. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed could differ significantly from the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
The amount allocated to intangible assets has been attributed to the following categories (in millions):
|
|
||
---|---|---|---|
Trade names | $ | 177.0 | |
Noncompete agreements | 12.6 | ||
Customer lists and relationships | 2.2 | ||
$ | 191.8 | ||
The trade name assets represent the fair value of the OfficeMax name and other trade names. This asset has an indefinite life and will not be amortized. All other intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives. Noncompete agreements will be amortized over four to five years, and customer lists and relationships will be amortized over three to five years.
In addition to the above intangible assets, independent valuation specialists estimated the fair value of operating leases. A portion of the acquired lease portfolio represented favorable operating leases, compared with current market conditions, and a portion represented unfavorable operating leases, compared with current market conditions. The favorable leases totaled $98.6 million and, after considering renewal periods, have an estimated weighted average life of 23 years. The unfavorable leases totaled $113.1 million and have an estimated weighted average life of nine years. The net of the favorable and unfavorable leases is recorded in "Other long-term liabilities." Both the favorable and unfavorable leases will be amortized on the straight-line basis over their respective weighted average lives.
3. Pro forma adjustments
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are as follows:
Pro forma balance sheet adjustments
Pro Forma income statement adjustments
4. Pro forma loss per share
The pro forma loss per share was calculated using 27.3 million shares of Boise common stock paid as merger consideration. For both periods presented, the calculation of diluted loss per share was antidilutive. Pro forma combined loss per share was calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):
