EXPLANATORY NOTE

On November 12, 2020, Whole Earth Brands, Inc.

(“Swerve LLC”), and Swerve IP, L.L.C. (“Swerve IP” and together with Swerve LLC, “Swerve”).

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Member

Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C.

We have audited the accompanying combined financial statements of Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C., which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 and the related statements of income and member’s equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the combined financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these combined financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the combined financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C., as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 8 to the combined financial statements, on November 10, 2020, the sale of 100% of the member’s interest in Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C. was completed, resulting in a change in control. The combined financial statements are presented as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for the years then ended, prior to the change in control. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

SWERVE, L.L.C. AND SWERVE IP, L.L.C.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations. Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C. (collectively referred to as “Swerve” or “the Company”) are focused on creating better-for-you baking and cooking products that are delicious and natural. Swerve IP, L.L.C. is the owner of the intellectual property required to produce and market Swerve brand sweetener. Swerve IP, L.L.C. has licensed the rights to use its intellectual property to Swerve, L.L.C. Swerve offers zero calorie sweeteners, low carb and gluten free bake mixes. Swerve is headquartered in New Orleans, and was formed in 2010 as a limited liability company in the state of Louisiana. Swerve was formed to have a perpetual life and the member has limited liability for the obligations of the LLCs.

Principles of Combination. The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of Swerve, L.L.C. and its related entity through common ownership, Swerve IP, L.L.C., and were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in the combined financial statements.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of the combined financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts Receivable. The Company extends unsecured credit to wholesale customers in the grocery and specialty food markets. Receivables are considered past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding beyond agreed upon terms (generally 30 days). Accounts are considered delinquent if outstanding more than 90 days. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. The Company determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, based on review of outstanding accounts and historical experience. The Company does not accrue interest on accounts receivable. The majority of payments are via bank transfers or check payments so the Company does not have credit card risk.

Inventory. The Company’s inventory is accounted for at the lower of cost (under the weighted-average method) or net realizable value. The cost of inventory includes the acquisition costs of raw ingredients and packaging supplies, costs paid to contract manufacturing facilities, and the in-bound freight costs incurred in connection with delivery of product to the contract manufacturing facilities and to warehouse locations. Inventory reserves for realizable value or obsolescence are determined on a specific item basis. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, inventory reserves were $207,360 and $ -0-, respectively.

Property and equipment. Property and equipment is primarily comprised of the office buildout associated with the Company’s corporate location in New Orleans, which also includes a small warehouse. These improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the life of the related lease, which expires April 30, 2022. Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment was $87,777 and $65,166 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Intangible assets. In 2018, the Company acquired bake mix recipes for $40,000 from a third party. These are considered intangible assets and are included in “other assets” in the combined balance sheets. There are no foreseeable limits on the period of time over which the recipes are expected to contribute to the cash flows of Swerve. Therefore, these intangible assets are assigned an indefinite useful life.

Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses includes costs such as sales commission, trade shows and conferences, field marketing, and advertising costs. Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. Advertising expense was $963,506 and $314,657 for the years ended 2019 and 2018, respectively.

SWERVE, L.L.C. AND SWERVE IP, L.L.C.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606. The core principle of ASC 606 is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes: identification of the contract; identification of the performance obligations; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. Swerve’s primary performance obligation is satisfied when products are delivered to the customers, which is the point in time when revenue is recognized. The Company generally pays for all costs to deliver products to customers and does not bill customers for such costs. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment of the promise to transfer the goods. Accordingly, shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold. Such costs totaled $1,634,562 and $1,064,750 in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Swerve offers promotional activities (e.g. coupons, trade discounts and other promotional activities) to customers. These variable consideration amounts are estimated for each customer based on specific arrangements/agreements existing at year end, and current activity with that customer. Reassessment of variable consideration estimates is done at each reporting date until the uncertainty is resolved (e.g. promotional campaign is closed and settled with customer). These promotional activities are deducted from revenue based on amounts estimated as being or becoming due to customers and consumers at the end of a period. These deductions are estimated and recorded in the same period as the product sale and revised as necessary in the subsequent period. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, product revenues have been reduced by $4,357,926 and $3,116,667, respectively, related to promotional activities. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, receivables have been reduced by $62,692 and $117,296, respectively, for estimated promotional activity associated with 2019 and 2018 product revenues, not settled until the subsequent period.

The Company also sells products via the Amazon Marketplace. Customer payments are made directly to Amazon, which then pays to the Company an amount net of Amazon’s commissions and service fees. Amazon’s commissions and service fees totaled $3,787,352 and $2,205,426 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The product revenues recorded in the combined statement of operations is the net amount received from Amazon.

The Company also offers its customers prompt pay discounts which is also a variable consideration. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, product revenues have been reduced by $537,161 and $309,241, respectively, for these discounts.

Customers do not have a contractual right of return. Historically, rejected products have not been significant.

The following table presents the Company’s percentage of revenues disaggregated by product categories for the period indicated:

	Years ended December 31,
	2019			2018
Sweeteners		92	%		97	%
Bake mixes		8	%		3	%
		100	%		100	%

The Company began product sales of bake mixes in June 2018.

Income Taxes. Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C. are treated as disregarded entities for Federal and state income tax purposes. As such, the income, losses, and credits are included in the personal income tax return of their member and there is no income tax provision or liability recorded in these combined financial statements.

The Company applies a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. This approach only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. The Company has reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounting Standards Issued, Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. This accounting standard requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities related to lease arrangements longer than 12 months on the balance sheet as well as additional disclosures. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, to simplify the lease standard’s implementation. The amended guidance relieves businesses and other organizations of the requirement to present prior comparative years’ results when the new lease standard is adopted. Instead of recasting prior year results using the new accounting when the guidance is adopted, companies can choose to recognize the cumulative effect of applying the new standard to leased assets and liabilities as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)”. This accounting standard requires entities to estimate losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade receivables, debt securities and loans, using an expected credit loss model. The expected credit loss differs from the previous incurred losses model primarily in that the loss recognition threshold of “probable” has been eliminated and that expected loss should consider reasonable and supportable forecasts in addition to the previously considered past events and current conditions. Additionally, the guidance requires additional disclosures related to the further disaggregation of information related to the credit quality of financial assets by year of the asset’s origination for as many as five years. Entities must apply the standard provision as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. This standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13.

Business and Credit Concentrations

Customers

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-payment of accounts receivable by customers is estimated in the amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The two largest customers are wholesale distributors which accounted for approximately 60% and 72% of total net product revenues in 2019 and 2018, respectively. These same customers accounted for approximately 56% and 22% of accounts receivables as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In addition to the wholesalers to whom the Company sells direct, the Company also offers and sells products via the Amazon Marketplace sales channel, which accounted for 16% and 13% of net product revenues in 2019 and 2018, respectively. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, receivables due from Amazon, net of fees deducted by Amazon for their services, were $250,643 and $255,788, respectively.

During fiscal 2019 and 2018, international sales represented approximately 10% and 9%, respectively, of net product revenues. The Company’s international sales are exclusively to customers in Canada. The related foreign exchange gains or losses on international sales is negligible.

Raw Materials

Swerve currently utilizes two suppliers to provide primary raw material under contracts that are generally 1-2 years in length. These supply contracts are currently under negotiations as they are scheduled to expire December 31, 2020. The primary raw material used by the Company is available from other suppliers throughout the world and Swerve maintains relationships with secondary suppliers, so that other sourcing options are available.

Contract Manufacturers

Swerve utilizes numerous contract manufacturers for different finished goods. During 2018 and 2019, Swerve utilized production sites that overlapped in their capabilities and provided redundancy. Presently, the majority of the production is completed at a single contract manufacturer site with whom the Company has been working since 2011. However, the type of production that is required to produce finished goods for Swerve is widely available through contract manufacturing sites across the United States.

Note 7 – Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the combined financial statements were available to be issued, October 30, 2020, and determined the following matters occurred that require additional disclosure. No events occurring after this date have been evaluated for inclusion in these combined financial statements, except as described in Note 8.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in Wuhan, China. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak as a global pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak is disrupting supply chains and affecting production and sales across a range of industries but Swerve has not experienced a notable impact or disruption. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and impact on the Company’s customers, employees and vendors, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The extent to which this matter may impact the Company’s future financial condition, operating results or cash flows cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

In April 2020, the Company applied for and received from the Small Business Administration a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program of approximately $165,000. The loan bears interest at an annual amount of 1%. The loan may be forgivable if certain conditions are met. Management believes the Company will meet the requirements for forgiveness and that the loan will be forgiven.

Note 8 – Additional Subsequent Event, Change in Control

On August 27, 2020, a letter of intent was entered into to sell 100% of the member interests in Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C. On November 10, 2020, the sale of the interests to Whole Earth Brands, Inc. for $80 million in cash was completed, resulting in a change in control of the Company. Included in 2019 non-operating expenses is $199,793 of expenses incurred by the Company in its efforts to potentially enter into a sale transaction.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations. Swerve, L.L.C. and Swerve IP, L.L.C. (collectively referred to as “Swerve” or “the Company”) are focused on creating better-for-you baking and cooking products that are delicious and natural. Swerve IP, L.L.C. is the owner of the intellectual property required to produce and market Swerve SEE THE SOURCE IMAGE brand sweetener. Swerve IP, L.L.C. has licensed the rights to use its intellectual property to Swerve, L.L.C. Swerve offers zero calorie sweeteners, low carb and gluten free bake mixes. Swerve is headquartered in New Orleans, and was formed in 2010 as a limited liability company in the state of Louisiana. Swerve was formed to have a perpetual life and the member has limited liability for the obligations of the LLCs.

Basis of Presentation. Unaudited interim combined financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2020 and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. The year-end combined balance sheet dated as of December 31, 2019 was audited and is presented here as a basis for comparison. Although the combined financial statements and related information included herein have been prepared without audit, and certain information and disclosures normally included in the combined financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any future period.

Principles of Combination. The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of Swerve, L.L.C. and its related entity through common ownership, Swerve IP, L.L.C. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in the combined financial statements.

Cash. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts Receivable. The Company extends unsecured credit to wholesale customers in the grocery and specialty food markets. Receivables are considered past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding beyond agreed upon terms (generally 30 days). Accounts are considered delinquent if outstanding more than 90 days. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. The Company determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, based on review of outstanding accounts and historical experience. The Company does not accrue interest on accounts receivable. The majority of payments are via bank transfers or check payments so the Company does not have credit card risk.

Inventory. The Company’s inventory is accounted for at the lower of cost (under the weighted-average method) or net realizable value. The cost of inventory includes the acquisition costs of raw ingredients and packaging supplies, costs paid to contract manufacturing facilities, and the in-bound freight costs incurred in connection with delivery of product to the contract manufacturing facilities and to warehouse locations. Inventory reserves for realizable value or obsolescence are determined on a specific item basis. As of both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, inventory reserves were $207,360.

Property and equipment. Property and equipment is primarily comprised of the office buildout associated with the Company’s corporate location in New Orleans, which also includes a small warehouse. These improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the life of the related lease, which expires April 30, 2022. Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment was $55,509 and $53,353 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

SWERVE, L.L.C. AND SWERVE IP, L.L.C.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Intangible assets. The Company has acquired bake mix recipes for $50,000 from a third party. These are considered intangible assets and are included in “other assets” in the combined balance sheets. There are no foreseeable limits on the period of time over which the recipes are expected to contribute to the cash flows of Swerve. Therefore, these intangible assets are assigned an indefinite useful life.

Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses includes costs such as sales commission, trade shows and conferences, field marketing, and advertising costs. Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. Advertising expense was $2,186,171 and $376,698 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606. The core principle of ASC 606 is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes: identification of the contract; identification of the performance obligations; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. Swerve’s primary performance obligation is satisfied when products are delivered to the customers, which is the point in time when revenue is recognized. The Company generally pays for all costs to deliver products to customers and does not bill customers for such costs. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment of the promise to transfer the goods. Accordingly, shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold. Such costs totaled $1,106,681 and $1,108,593 for nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Swerve offers promotional activities (e.g. coupons, trade discounts and other promotional activities) to customers. These variable consideration amounts are estimated for each customer based on specific arrangements/agreements existing at year end, and current activity with that customer. Reassessment of variable consideration estimates is done at each reporting date until the uncertainty is resolved (e.g. promotional campaign is closed and settled with customer). These promotional activities are deducted from revenue based on amounts estimated as being or becoming due to customers and consumers at the end of a period. These deductions are estimated and recorded in the same period as the product sale and revised as necessary in the subsequent period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, product revenues have been reduced by $2,141,138 and $2,938,604, respectively, related to promotional activities. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, receivables have been reduced by $216,028 and $62,692, respectively, for estimated promotional activity associated product revenues, not settled until the subsequent period.

The Company also sells products via the Amazon Marketplace. Customer payments are made directly to Amazon, which then pays to the Company an amount net of Amazon’s commissions and service fees. Amazon’s commissions and service fees totaled $3,329,526 and $3,047,902 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The product revenues recorded in the combined statement of operations is the net amount received from Amazon.

The Company also offers its customers prompt pay discounts which is also a variable consideration. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, product revenues have been reduced by $429,157 and $359,462, respectively, for these discounts.

Customers do not have a contractual right of return. Historically, rejected products have not been significant.

The following table presents the Company’s percentage of revenues disaggregated by product categories for the period indicated:

	Nine Months ended September 30,

Accounting Standards Issued, Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. This accounting standard requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities related to lease arrangements longer than 12 months on the balance sheet as well as additional disclosures. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, to simplify the lease standard’s implementation. The amended guidance relieves businesses and other organizations of the requirement to present prior comparative years’ results when the new lease standard is adopted. Instead of recasting prior year results using the new accounting when the guidance is adopted, companies can choose to recognize the cumulative effect of applying the new standard to leased assets and liabilities as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The standard will be effective for the Company as of November 11, 2020 as a result of the change of control described in Note 8 to the combined financial statements.

The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting these new standards.

Business and Credit Concentrations

Customers

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-payment of accounts receivable by customers is estimated in the amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The two largest customers are wholesale distributors which accounted for approximately 54% and 59% of total net product revenues for the nine-months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These same customers accounted for approximately 57% and 56% of accounts receivables as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. In addition to the wholesalers to whom the Company sells direct, the Company also offers and sells products via the Amazon Marketplace sales channel, which accounted for 17% and 19% of net product revenues for the nine-months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, receivables due from Amazon, net of fees deducted by Amazon for their services, were $172,697 and $250,643, respectively.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, international sales represented approximately 4% and 6%, respectively, of net product revenues. The Company’s international sales are exclusively to customers in Canada. The related foreign exchange gains or losses on international sales is negligible.

Raw Materials

Swerve currently utilizes two suppliers to provide primary raw material under contracts that are generally 1-2 years in length. These supply contracts were scheduled to expire December 31, 2020. Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company entered into supply contracts with these two suppliers covering 2021. The raw materials purchase commitments for 2021 under these two contracts total approximately $9 million. The primary raw material used by the Company is available from other suppliers throughout the world and Swerve maintains relationships with secondary suppliers, so that other sourcing options are available.

Contract Manufacturers

Swerve utilizes numerous contract manufacturers for different finished goods. During 2020 and 2019, Swerve utilized production sites that overlapped in their capabilities and provided redundancy. Presently, the majority of the production is completed at a single contract manufacturer site with whom the Company has been working since 2011. However, the type of production that is required to produce finished goods for Swerve is widely available through contract manufacturing sites across the United States.

Note 5 – Paycheck Protection Program Loan

On April 5, 2020, the Company qualified for and received a loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program, a program implemented by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, from a qualified lender (the “PPP Lender”), for an aggregate principal amount of $164,911 (the "PPP Loan"). The PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 0.98% per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, has a term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The principal amount of the PPP Loan is subject to forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program upon the Company’s request to the extent that the PPP Loan proceeds are used to pay expenses permitted by the Paycheck Protection Program, including payroll costs, covered rent and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company. The Company has applied for forgiveness of the PPP Loan with respect to these covered expenses. To the extent that all or part of the PPP Loan is not forgiven, the Company will be required to pay interest on the PPP Loan at a rate of 0.98% per annum, and under the terms of the loan, commencing in November 2020 principal and interest payments would be required through the maturity date in April 2022. The terms of the PPP Loan provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events.

The Company has accounted for the PPP Loan as a financial liability and will continue to do so until the loan is partly or wholly forgiven and the Company has been legally released or the loan is paid.

On June 24, 2020, Act II Global Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Act II”), domesticated into a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”), and on June 25, 2020, consummated the indirect acquisition (the “Act II Acquisition”) of (i) all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Merisant Company (“Merisant”), Merisant Luxembourg Sarl (“Merisant Luxembourg”), Mafco Worldwide LLC (“Mafco Worldwide”), Mafco Shanghai LLC (“Mafco Shanghai”), EVD Holdings LLC (“EVD Holdings”), and Mafco Deutschland GmbH (together with Merisant, Merisant Luxembourg, Mafco Worldwide, Mafco Shanghai, and EVD Holdings, and their respective direct and indirect subsidiaries, “Merisant and Mafco Worldwide”), and (ii) certain assets and liabilities of Merisant and Mafco Worldwide included in the Transferred Assets and Liabilities (as defined in the Act II Purchase Agreement (as hereafter defined)), from Flavors Holdings Inc. (“Flavors Holdings”), MW Holdings I LLC (“MW Holdings I”), MW Holdings III LLC (“MW Holdings III”), and Mafco Foreign Holdings, Inc. (“Mafco Foreign Holdings,” and together with Flavors Holdings, MW Holdings I, and MW Holdings III, the “Sellers”), pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement (the “Act II Purchase Agreement”) entered into by and among Act II and the Sellers dated as of December 19, 2019, as amended. In connection with the Domestication, Act II changed its name to “Whole Earth Brands, Inc.” (“Whole Earth Brands” or the “Company”). Refer to the definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by Act II on May 13, 2020 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) and the supplement thereto filed by Act II on June 18, 2020 (the “Supplement”) as well as the Current Report on Form 8-K12B and related Form 8-K12B/A (collectively, the “Super 8-K”) filed with the SEC by the Company on June 30, 2020 for further details.

As a result of the Act II Acquisition, for accounting purposes, Act II was deemed to be the acquirer and Merisant and Mafco Worldwide were deemed to be the acquired parties and, collectively, the accounting predecessor. The Company’s financial statement presentation includes the combined financial statements of Merisant and Mafco Worldwide as the “Predecessor” for periods prior to the completion of the Act II Acquisition and includes the consolidation of Merisant and Mafco Worldwide, for periods after June 25, 2020 (referred to as the “Successor”).

Further, on November 10, 2020, Whole Earth Brands executed and closed a definitive Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Swerve Purchase Agreement”) with RF Development, LLC (“RF Development”), Swerve, L.L.C. (“Swerve LLC”), and Swerve IP, L.L.C. (“Swerve IP” and together with Swerve LLC, “Swerve”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Swerve Purchase Agreement, Whole Earth Brands purchased all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of both Swerve LLC and Swerve IP from RF Development, and both Swerve LLC and Swerve IP became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Whole Earth Brands (the “Swerve Acquisition”). The $80.0 million purchase price for the Swerve Acquisition was funded through a combination of available cash on hand and approximately $47.9 million under the Company’s $50.0 million revolving loan facility. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the Act II Acquisition and Swerve Acquisition will be collectively referred to as the “Transactions”.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the historical financial statements of Merisant and Mafco Worldwide, the historical financial statements of Act II and the historical financial statements of Swerve after giving effect to the Swerve Acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma financial information is intended to reflect:

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The acquisition method of accounting requires use of the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"). ASC 820 defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Fair value measurements can be highly subjective, and it is possible the application of reasonable judgment could develop different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances.

ASC 805 requires the determination of the accounting acquirer, the acquisition date, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the measurement of goodwill. The Company has been identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes based on the facts and circumstances specific to the Swerve Acquisition. As a result, the Company will record the business combination in its financial statements and will apply the acquisition method to account for the acquired assets and liabilities assumed from Swerve. Applying the acquisition method includes recording the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values, measured as of the acquisition date, and recording goodwill for the excess of the consideration transferred over the aggregate fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the fair values of Swerve’s identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on preliminary estimates. The final determination of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed could result in material changes to the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and future results of operations and financial position.

There were no transactions between the Company and Swerve during the periods presented that would need to be eliminated.

Note 2 – Conforming Accounting Policies

During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, management performed an initial review of the accounting policies and presentation of financial information of the Company and Swerve to determine if differences in accounting policies and presentation require adjustment. As a result of that review, management identified the following difference(s) in accounting policies:

	●	Merisant and Mafco Worldwide accounted for leases under ASC 840 during the Predecessor period while Act II accounted for leases under ASC 842. As of September 30, 2020, an operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability was already recorded within the historical unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of Whole Earth Brands, Inc. which reflected the adoption of ASC 842. No material difference in rent expense in the Predecessor period was determined.

	●	Swerve accounted for leases under ASC 840 as of September 30, 2020 and for the nine months and year ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. As such, an adjustment was made to record an operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 to align with the Company’s policy of accounting for leases under ASC 842. The difference in rent expense in each period was determined to be immaterial to the pro forma financial statements, so no adjustments were made to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months and year ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

	●	Swerve accounted for spoilage allowance, customer redemptions and certain advertising costs in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses in Swerve’s combined statements of operations. However, these amounts should be treated as contra revenue under the Company’s accounting policy for recognizing revenue. Therefore, an adjustment was made to cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and product revenues, net within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months and year ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, to reflect this policy alignment.

As more information becomes available, management will complete a more detailed review of Swerve’s accounting policies. As a result of that review, additional differences could be identified that, when confirmed, could have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

Note 4 - Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The total purchase consideration for the Swerve Acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The final allocation of the purchase consideration for the Swerve Acquisition will be determined after the completion of a thorough analysis to determine the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but in no event, later than one year following the completion of the Swerve Acquisition.

The table below summarizes the preliminary calculation of purchase consideration and allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as if the acquisition had been completed on September 30, 2020. The allocation has not been finalized. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments to allocate the purchase consideration will remain preliminary until management finalizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed are dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have not yet been completed, and as previously stated could differ materially from the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The preliminary purchase price allocation is presented below (in thousands):

Purchase consideration	$	80,000
Accounts receivable, net		2,284
Inventories		7,056
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		63
Property, plant and equipment, net		164
Other intangible assets, net		36,400
Other assets		3
Total assets acquired		45,970
Accounts payable		2,157
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities		308
Current portion of long-term debt		165
Total liabilities assumed		2,630
Net assets acquired		43,340
Goodwill	$	36,660

Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the net assets acquired, as compared to the information shown herein, could also change the portion of the purchase consideration allocable to goodwill and could impact the operating results of the Company following the Swerve Acquisition due to differences in the allocation of the purchase consideration, and changes in the depreciation and amortization related to some of these assets and liabilities.
