Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholders of
EECOL Holdings Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of EECOL Holdings Ltd., which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at January 31, 2012, January 31, 2011 and February 1, 2010 and the consolidated statements of net earnings, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended January 31, 2012 and January 31, 2011, and notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian and United States of America generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of EECOL Holdings Ltd. as at January 31, 2012, January 31, 2011 and February 1, 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended January 31, 2012 and January 31, 2011 in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
January 31, 2012, January 31, 2011 and February 1, 2010
Effective August 2, 2006, EECOL Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”) was formed following the amalgamation of EECOL Holdings Ltd., EECOL Holdings (Sask) Ltd., EECOL Electric Inc., and EECOL Electric (Sask) Inc. The Company purchases and distributes electronic and electrical goods in Canada and South America.

2. | Adoption of new accounting framework |
During the year ended January 31, 2012, the Company adopted the new accounting standards for private enterprises (the “new standards” or “ASPE”) adopted by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) and set out in Part II of the CICA Handbook. In accordance with Section 1500 of Part II of the CICA Handbook, First-time Adoption, (“Section 1500”), the date of transition to the new standards is February 1, 2010 and the Company has prepared and presented a consolidated opening balance sheet at the date of transition to the new standards. This consolidated opening balance sheet is the starting point for the Company’s accounting under the new standards. In its consolidated opening balance sheet, under the recommendations of Section 1500, the Company:
| |
(a) | recognized all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by the new standards; |
| |
(b) | did not recognize items as assets or liabilities if the new standards do not permit such recognition; |
(c) reclassified items that it recognized previously as one type of asset, liability or component of equity, but are recognized as a different type of asset, liability or component of equity under the new standards; and
(d) applied the new standards in measuring all recognized assets and liabilities.
In accordance with the requirements of Section 1500, the accounting policies set out in Note 3 have been consistently applied to all years presented and adjustments resulting from the adoption of the new standards have been applied retrospectively excluding cases where optional exemptions available under Section 1500 have been applied. The Company has elected to adopt the exemptions available under Section 1500 relating to business combinations, related party transactions, and foreign currency translation. As such, previous Part V Canadian generally accepted accounting principles balances relating to business combinations and related party transactions entered into before February 1, 2010 have been carried forward without adjustment and the cumulative translation adjustment, which includes gains and losses arising from the translation of foreign operations has been reset to zero at the date of transition.

Explanation of adjustments
| |
a) | Correction of prior period errors |
In preparing the opening ASPE balance sheet as at February 1, 2010 and the financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2011, the Company adjusted amounts related to prior period balances. The Company determined that these amounts were immaterial to its consolidated financial statements for any prior periods.
i) Non-ASPE reclassification of investments
An investment was included in retained earnings, when it should have been presented in investment in company subject to significant influence on the consolidated balance sheet. The adjustment of $733,892 represents the amount of the error that has been reclassified from retained earnings to investment in company subject to significant influence.
ii) Non-ASPE reclassification for non-controlling interest share of income
Income attributed to the non-controlling interests of $72,906 has been reclassified from foreign exchange loss to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest included in equity.
iii) Non-ASPE reclassification of income tax expense
Refundable taxes paid should be presented separately in retained earnings, rather than being added to income tax expense. As such, refundable taxes in the amount of $720,818 have been reclassified from income tax expense to retained earnings to conform to current year presentation.
b) Government remittances
The new standards require separate disclosure of the amount of government remittances payable. Accordingly, the amount of $1,364,032 as at February 1, 2010 related to payroll remittances and government and provincial sales taxes have been reclassified from accounts payable and accrued liabilities to government remittances payable.

2. | Adoption of new accounting framework (continued) |
c) Income taxes
Under the new standards, Part II of CICA Handbook, Section 3465, Income Taxes, the Company is permitted to account for income taxes using either the taxes payable method or the future income taxes method. Previously, the Company accounted for income taxes using the future income taxes method. The Company’s accounting policy under the new standards will be to use the taxes payable method. The adjustment of $16,677 and $1,339,449 as at February 1, 2010 represents the adjustment of the future income taxes asset and liability, respectively. The adjustment of $1,006,262 to recovery of future income taxes for the year ended January 31, 2011 represents the reversal of the future income tax recovery recorded.
| |
d) | Foreign currency translation |
The Company has used one of the exemptions provided in Part II of CICA Handbook, Section 1500, and has charged to retained earnings the cumulative foreign currency translation balance as at February 1, 2010.
In addition, the operating activities section of the consolidated cash flow statement has been adjusted to reflect, as appropriate, the above changes to the consolidated statement of net earnings. The adjustments relate to the amount of the net earnings and to the reconciling items in determining the total funds from operating activities.
| |
3. | Significant accounting policies |
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises and reflect the following significant accounting policies:
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries
EECOL Electric Corp. and EECOL Properties Corp. The consolidated financial statements of
EECOL Electric Corp. include the operations of the wholly owned subsidiary, Saskalta Holdings SA, and the 95%-owned subsidiary, EECOL Electric Argentina SA. Saskalta Holdings SA and EECOL Electric Argentina SA have fiscal years ending December 31, which differs from the Company’s year-end of January 31. These consolidated financial statements include all necessary material adjustments related to the one-month variance for accurate and fair presentation in accordance with the new standards.
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Interest and other income are recorded when earned and collection is reasonably assured.
Investments
Investments are in unlisted shares that are measured at cost less any reduction for impairment.
Inventories
Inventories consist of goods purchased for resale and have been valued at the lower of cost, determined on an average-cost basis, and net realizable value.
Net realizable value is determined as the available selling price less costs of disposition. The estimated selling price takes into account management’s best estimate of the most probable set of economic conditions. The ultimate net realizable value is dependent on future market conditions.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Property and equipment
The Company records property and equipment at cost less accumulated amortization. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against net earnings as incurred.
Amortization is provided on property and equipment over their estimated useful lives. The rates and methods for major classes of assets are as follows:
|
| |
Buildings | 4% - 9% declining-balance |
Parking lot | 8% declining-balance |
Fence | 10% declining-balance |
Furniture, equipment and software | 20% - 30% declining-balance |
Trucks and forklifts | 30% declining-balance |
Leasehold improvements | straight-line over term of lease |
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of an asset exceeds the total undiscounted cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposition. The amount of the impairment loss is determined as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value at the date of impairment.
Investments in partnership and joint venture
The partnership acts as a buying consortium to achieve maximum rebates from suppliers. These rebates are passed on to the partners based upon the amount of purchases made from specific suppliers. The Company’s share of these rebates is recorded annually as a reduction of cost of sales when the rebates are known or are paid. The investment in the partnership is recorded using the equity method. The partnership’s year-end is March 31. The consolidated financial statements of the Company also include operations from CMMS Canada, a joint venture, which is accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the Company’s proportionate share of any net income or losses of the partnership and joint venture would be recorded in net income. Dividends or distributions received from the partnership or joint venture would reduce the carrying value of the respective investments.
Under ASPE, companies are permitted to make certain accounting policy choices with respect to the investments in partnerships and joint ventures. Previously, the Company had elected to account for its investment in the partnership at cost and to use proportionate consolidation for the joint venture. However, under Canadian securities legislation and the regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, these types of investments must be recorded using the equity method. As such, the Company has retrospectively recast the financial statements to reflect the equity method of accounting for all periods presented. The impact of the recast is as follows:

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
January 31, 2012, January 31, 2011 and February 1, 2010
3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and the carrying value is adjusted thereafter to include the Company’s pro rata share of post-acquisition earnings computed by the consolidation method. The amount of the pro rata share of earnings or loss is included in the determination of net earnings by the Company, and the investment account of the Company is increased or decreased. The investment account of the Company is also increased or decreased to reflect its share of capital transactions and changes in accounting policies and corrections of errors relating to prior period financial statements applicable to post-acquisition periods. Profit distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying value of the investment.
Income taxes
The Company follows the taxes payable method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method,
only current income taxes for the period determined in accordance with the rules established by taxation authorities are recognized as an expense.
Deferred tenant inducement
The tenant inducement is deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Pension plans
The Company’s pension plans consist of a registered defined benefit pension plan and a supplementary executive retirement plan, both of which are contributory defined benefit plans. The Company accrues
its obligations under the defined benefit pension plans as the employees render the services necessary to earn the pension benefits. The actuarial determination of the accrued benefit obligations for pensions uses the projected benefit method pro-rated on service (which incorporates management’s best estimate of future salary levels, other cost escalation, retirement ages of employees and other actuarial factors). The measurement date of the plan assets and accrued benefit obligation is December 31.
Actuarial gains (losses) on plan assets arise from the difference between the actual return on plan
assets for a period and the expected return on plan assets for that period. For the purpose of calculating the expected return on plan assets, those assets are valued at fair value. Actuarial gains (losses) on the accrued benefit obligation arise from differences between actual and expected experience and from changes in the actuarial assumptions used to determine the accrued benefit obligation. The excess of the net accumulated actuarial gains (losses) is amortized over the average remaining service period of active employees.
Past service costs arising from plan amendments are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of employees active at the date of amendment.
Foreign currency translation
The Company’s investments in Saskalta Holdings SA and EECOL Electric Argentina SA, which have been consolidated into the Company’s financial results, are considered to be self-sustaining foreign operations. As a result, the current-rate method is used for the translation of these investments, and the exchange gains and losses arising from translation are deferred and included as a component of shareholders’ equity described as cumulative translation adjustment.
Financial instruments
The Company’s cash, investments, accounts receivable, investment in partnership, due from related parties, bank loans and accounts payable and accrued liabilities constitute the Company’s financial instruments. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Subsequently, all financial instruments are measured at amortized cost except for investments in unlisted shares that are

measured at cost less any reduction for impairment.
Transaction costs related to financial instruments measured at fair value are expensed as incurred. Transaction costs related to the other financial instruments are added to the carrying value of the asset or netted against the carrying value of the liability and are then recognized over the expected life of the instrument using the straight-line method. Any premium or discount related to an instrument measured at amortized cost is amortized over the expected life of the item using the straight-line method and recognized in net earnings as interest income or expense.
With respect to financial assets measured at cost or amortized cost, the Company recognizes in net earnings an impairment loss, if any, when it determines that a significant adverse change has occurred during the period in the expected timing or amount of future cash flows. When the extent of impairment of a previously written down asset decreases and the decrease can be related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed in net earnings in the period the reversal occurs.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The allowance for doubtful accounts, net realizable value of inventories, estimated useful lives of property and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets, accrued pension benefit asset (liability), and accrued liabilities are the most significant items subject to estimates in these consolidated financial statements. These estimates are reviewed at least annually and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in net earnings in the periods in which they become known.

The Company is committed to the operating lease payments for the next five years and thereafter as follows:
|
| |
| $ |
| |
2013 | 5,126,746 |
2014 | 3,784,870 |
2015 | 3,134,781 |
2016 | 2,437,330 |
2017 | 1,694,315 |
Thereafter | 5,468,034 |
| 21,646,076 |
Additional amounts are also payable under “escalation clauses” in the operating leases, whereby the Company pays for any increase in specified operating expenses over a base amount.
Fair value
The Company’s cash, investments, accounts receivable, investment in partnership, due from related parties, bank loans, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related party constitute the Company’s financial instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s cash, investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values as at January 31, 2012 due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The Company’s bank loans are subject to floating interest rates which reflect rates currently available for debt with similar terms and maturities. Accordingly, the fair value of the bank loans is not materially different from their recorded value.
Fair value (continued)
The fair values of the amounts due from related parties and due to related party are not determinable with sufficient reliability due to there being no fixed terms of repayment.
The fair value of the investment in partnership is not determinable with sufficient reliability as this is a private entity and, therefore, not actively traded on a public market.
The significant financial risks to which the Company is exposed are foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk.
Foreign currency risk
The Company is exposed to risk arising from fluctuation in foreign exchange rates since it enters into sales and purchase transactions denominated in foreign currencies, for which the related revenue, cost of sales, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are subject to exchange rate fluctuations. The Company does not enter into any hedging or forward contracts to mitigate against foreign currency risk.

15. Financial instruments (continued)
The consolidated balance sheet as at January 31, 2012 includes the following amounts expressed in Canadian dollars with respect to financial assets and liabilities for which cash flows are denominated in the following currencies:
|
| |
| $ |
| |
U.S. dollars | |
Monetary assets | 8,801,636 |
Monetary liabilities | 9,900,454 |
Chilean pesos | |
Monetary assets | 13,517,421 |
Monetary liabilities | 19,866,728 |
Argentine pesos | |
Monetary assets | 725,015 |
Monetary liabilities | 2,123,115 |
Euros | |
Monetary assets | 5,949 |
Monetary liabilities | 106,301 |
Peruvian sol | |
Monetary assets | 1,619,370 |
Monetary liabilities | 1,064,025 |
| 57,730,014 |
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The bank demand loan bears interest at The Bank of Nova Scotia’s prime rate per annum. Changes in the bank’s prime lending rate can cause fluctuations in interest payment and cash flows. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to alter the effects of this risk. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to stable interest rates.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties in connection with its accounts receivable. This risk is alleviated by minimizing the amount of exposure the Company has to any one customer, ensuring a diversified customer mix.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk arising primarily from the bank loans and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company’s ability to meet obligations depends on the receipt of funds from its customers in the form of revenue. The Company monitors its cash balances and cash flows generated from operations to meet its requirements.

16. | Reconciliation from ASPE to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) |
The company’s accounting policies are in accordance with ASPE. ASPE varies in certain significant respects from US GAAP. As required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the effect of these principal differences on the company’s consolidated financial statements is described and quantified below:

16. | Reconciliation from ASPE to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) (continued) |
| |
(a) | US GAAP has specific guidance related to continuing involvement with respect to sale-lease backs of real estate that does not exist under ASPE. The Company concluded that one lease historically recorded as a sale-leaseback transaction in 2012 under ASPE was required to be reclassified as a capital lease under US GAAP due to the lease containing elements of continuing involvement. In addition, the derecognition of the asset is prohibited under US GAAP. The above adjustments reverse the Company's historical recording of an asset sale and rent expense, generated a liability based on the proceeds received and recorded interest expense and amortization expense related to the obligation and the asset, respectively. |
| |
(b) | The Company has historically valued their pension plans based on the calendar year-end which was appropriate under ASPE. US GAAP requires pensions to be valued as of the reporting date. The Company updated the valuations to reflect a valuation date that aligns with the Company's fiscal year ends. This resulted in reconciling items for the change in the pension benefit obligation and asset values. The adjustment related to the year ended January 31, 2012 resulted in decrease in pension expense of $358,810, an increase in the accrued pension benefit liability of $11,558,658 and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $14,143,736. The adjustment related to the year ended January 31, 2011 resulted in an increase in the pension benefit obligation of $14,728,972, an increase in pension expense of $564,129 and an increase to retained earnings of $97,349. |
Additionally, US GAAP requires that actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs & transition obligations be included in accumulated other comprehensive income whereas ASPE allows these amounts to be off-set against the pension benefit obligation or asset. This resulted in reconciling items to reclassify those amounts to accumulated other comprehensive income in the amount of $16,990,233 as at January 31, 2011.
| |
(c) | As discussed in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted ASPE on a retrospective basis during the year ended January 31, 2012. The Company applied an exemption under Section 1500, First Time Adoption, effectively resetting the cumulative foreign currency translation balance to nil on adoption. This exemption is not permitted under US GAAP. |
| |
(d) | ASPE permits a company to use a tax payable methodology within the consolidated financial statements. Under US GAAP, a company must apply the deferred tax method of accounting. US GAAP uses the asset and liability method whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. Deferred income tax assets are recorded in the financial statements if realization is considered more likely than not. A valuation allowance is established, if necessary, to reduce any deferred income tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Additionally, the income tax adjustment reflects the impact on income taxes of the US GAAP adjustments described in this footnote. |
The adjustment related to the year ended January 31, 2012 resulted in an increase in deferred tax asset of $4,015,826, an increase in deferred tax liability of $1,241,591, an decrease in retained earnings of $1,422,764, an increase in income tax expense of $921,730 and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $3,818,809. The adjustment related to the year ended January 31, 2011 resulted in an increase in deferred tax asset of $4,616,719, an increase in deferred tax liability of $1,241,591, a decrease in retained earnings of $700,898, a decrease in income tax expense of $511,337 and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $4,587,363.
| |
(e) | The Company has historically recorded cumulative translation adjustments ("CTA") under ASPE within equity whereas US GAAP requires CTA be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. |
| |
(f) | There are no differences that would impact the consolidated statement of cash flows as it pertains to the subtotals of operating, financing and investing activities. |

Notes to the consolidated interim financial statements
July 31, 2012 (unaudited)
1.Nature of business
Effective August 2, 2006, EECOL Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”) was formed following the amalgamation of EECOL Holdings Ltd., EECOL Holdings (Sask) Ltd., EECOL Electric Inc., and EECOL Electric (Sask) Inc. The Company purchases and distributes electronic and electrical goods in Canada and South America.
2.Basis of preparation
The consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises as issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and set out in Part II of the CICA Handbook.
3. Significant accounting policies
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries EECOL Electric Corp. and EECOL Properties Corp. The consolidated interim financial statements of EECOL Electric Corp. include the operations of the wholly owned subsidiary, Saskalta Holdings SA, and its 95%-owned subsidiary, EECOL Electric Argentina SA. Saskalta Holdings SA and EECOL Electric Argentina SA have fiscal years ending December 31 have fiscal years ending December 31, which differs from the Company’s year-end of January 31. These consolidated interim financial statements include all necessary material adjustments related to the one-month variance for accurate and fair presentation in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises.
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Interest and other income are recorded when earned and collection is reasonably assured.
Investments
Investments are in unlisted shares that are measured at cost less any reduction for impairment.
Inventories
Inventories consist of goods purchased for resale and have been valued at the lower of cost, determined on an average-cost basis, and net realizable value.
Net realizable value is estimated as the available selling price less costs of disposition. The estimated selling price takes into account management’s best estimate of the most probable set of economic conditions. The ultimate net realizable value is dependent on future market conditions.
Property and equipment
The Company records property and equipment at cost less accumulated amortization. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against earnings as incurred.
Property and equipment are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The rates and methods for major classes of assets are as follows:
Furniture, equipment and software 20%-100% declining balance
Trucks and forklifts 30% declining balance
Leasehold improvements Straight-line over the term of the lease
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever a change in events or circumstances indicates that their carrying values may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of an asset exceeds the total undiscounted cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposition. Any resulting loss is recognized in the period it is determined. The amount of the impairment loss is determined as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value at the date of impairment.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Investments in partnership and joint venture
The partnership acts as a buying consortium to achieve maximum rebates from suppliers. These rebates are passed on to the partners based upon the amount of purchases made from specific suppliers. The Company’s share of these rebates is recorded annually as a reduction of cost of sales when the rebates are known or are paid. The investment in the partnership is recorded using the equity method. The partnership’s year-end is March 31. The consolidated financial statements of the Company also include operations from CMMS Canada, a joint venture, which is accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of any net income or losses of the partnership and joint venture would be recorded in net income. Dividends or distributions received from the partnership or joint venture would reduce the carrying value of the respective investments.
Investment in company subject to significant influence
The Company has elected to record its investment in companies subject to significant influence using the equity method.
Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and the carrying value is adjusted thereafter to include the Company’s pro rata share of post-acquisition earnings computed by the consolidation method. The amount of the pro rata share of earnings or loss is included in the determination of net earnings by the Company, and the investment account of the Company is increased or decreased. The investment account of the Company is also increased or decreased to reflect its share of capital transactions and changes in accounting policies and corrections of errors relating to prior period consolidated financial statements applicable to post-acquisition periods. Profit distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying value of the investment.
Income taxes
The Company follows the taxes payable method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, only current income taxes for the period determined in accordance with the rules established by taxation authorities are recognized as an expense.
Deferred tenant inducement
The tenant inducement is deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Pension plans
The Company’s pension plans consist of a registered defined benefit pension plan and a supplementary executive retirement plan, both of which are contributory defined benefit plans. The Company accrues its obligations under the defined benefit pension plans as the employees render the services necessary to earn the pension benefits. The actuarial determination of the accrued benefit obligations for pensions uses the projected benefit method pro-rated on service (which incorporates management’s best estimate of future salary levels, other cost escalation, retirement ages of employees and other actuarial factors). The measurement date of the plan assets and accrued benefit obligation is December 31.
Actuarial gains (losses) on plan assets arise from the difference between the actual return on plan assets for a period and the expected return on plan assets for that period. For the purpose of calculating the expected return on plan assets, those assets are valued at fair value. Actuarial gains (losses) on the accrued benefit obligation arise from differences between actual and expected experience and from changes in the actuarial assumptions used to determine the accrued benefit obligation. The excess of the net accumulated actuarial gains (losses) is amortized over the average remaining service period of active employees.
Past service costs arising from plan amendments are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of employees active at the date of amendment.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Foreign currency translation
The Company’s investments in Saskalta Holdings SA and EECOL Electric Argentina SA, which have been consolidated into the Company’s financial results, are considered to be self-sustaining foreign operations. As a result, the current rate method is used for the translation of these investments, and the exchange gains and losses arising from translation are deferred and included as a component of shareholders’ equity described as cumulative translation adjustment.
Financial instruments
The Company’s cash, investments, accounts receivable, investment in partnership, due from related parties, bank loans and accounts payable and accrued liabilities constitute the Company’s financial instruments. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Subsequently, all financial instruments are measured at amortized cost except for investments in unlisted shares, which are measured at cost less any reduction for impairment.
Transaction costs related to financial instruments measured at fair value are expensed as incurred. Transaction costs related to the other financial instruments are added to the carrying value of the asset or netted against the carrying value of the liability and are then recognized over the expected life of the instrument using the straight-line method. Any premium or discount related to an instrument measured at amortized cost is amortized over the expected life of the item using the straight-line method and recognized in net earnings as interest income or expense.
With respect to financial assets measured at cost or amortized cost, the Company recognizes in net earnings an impairment loss, if any, when it determines that a significant adverse change has occurred during the period in the expected timing or amount of future cash flows. When the extent of impairment of a previously written down asset decreases and the decrease can be related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed in net earnings in the period the reversal occurs.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises 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 consolidated interim financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The allowance for doubtful accounts, net realizable value of inventories, estimated useful lives of property and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets, accrued pension benefit asset, rebates from suppliers and accrued liabilities are the most significant items subject to estimates in these non-consolidated interim financial statements. These estimates are reviewed at least each period end and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known.

Additional amounts are also payable under “escalation clauses” in the operating leases, whereby the Company pays for any increase in specified operating expenses over a base amount.
14.Financial instruments
Fair value
The Company’s cash, accounts receivable, due from related parties, investment in partnership, investment in related parties, bank loans and accounts payable and accrued liabilities constitute the Company’s financial instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values as at July 31, 2012 due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The Company’s bank loans are subject to floating interest rates which reflect rates currently available for debt with similar terms and maturities. Accordingly, the fair value of the bank loans is not materially different from the recorded value.
The fair values of the amounts due from related parties are not determinable with sufficient reliability due to there being no fixed terms of repayment.
The fair values of the investment in partnership and investment in related parties are not determinable with sufficient reliability as this is a private entity and, therefore, not actively traded on a public market.
The significant financial risks to which the Company is exposed are foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk.
Foreign currency risk
The Company is exposed to risk arising from fluctuation in foreign exchange rates since it enters into sales and purchase transactions denominated in foreign currencies, for which the related revenue, cost of sales, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are subject to exchange rate fluctuations. The Company does not enter into any hedging or forward contracts to mitigate against foreign currency risk.
The consolidated interim balance sheet as at July 31, 2012 includes the following amounts expressed in Canadian dollars with respect to financial assets and liabilities for which cash flows are denominated in the following currencies:

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The bank loans bear interest at The Bank of Nova Scotia’s prime rate per annum. Changes in the bank’s prime lending rate can cause fluctuations in interest payment and cash flows. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to alter the effects of this risk. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to stable interest rates.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties in connection with its accounts receivable. This risk is alleviated by minimizing the amount of exposure the Company has to any one customer, ensuring a diversified customer mix.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk arising primarily from the bank loans and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations depends on the receipt of funds from its customers in the form of revenue. The Company monitors its cash balances and cash flows generated from operations to meet its financing requirements.

15. | Reconciliation from ASPE to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) (continued) |
| |
(a) | US GAAP has specific guidance related to continuing involvement with respect to sale-lease backs of real estate that does not exist under ASPE. The Company concluded that one lease historically recorded as a sale-leaseback transaction in 2012 under ASPE was required to be reclassified as a capital lease under US GAAP due to the lease containing elements of continuing involvement. In addition, the derecognition of the asset is prohibited under US GAAP. The above adjustments reverse the Company's historical recording of an asset sale and rent expense, generated a liability based on the proceeds received and recorded interest expense and amortization expense related to the obligation and the asset, respectively. |
| |
(b) | The Company has historically valued their pension plans based on the calendar year-end which was appropriate under ASPE. US GAAP requires pensions to be valued as of the reporting date. The Company updated the valuations to reflect a valuation date that aligns with the Company's fiscal year ends. This resulted in reconciling items for the change in the pension benefit obligation and asset values. The adjustment related to the six months ended July 31, 2012 resulted in decrease in pension expense of $1,322,380, a decrease in the accrued pension benefit liability of $2,948,210 and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $567,941. The adjustment related to the six months ended July 31, 2011 resulted in a decrease in the pension benefit obligation of $3,485,397 and a decrease in pension expense of $347,628. |
Additionally, US GAAP requires that actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs & transition obligations be included in accumulated other comprehensive income whereas ASPE allows these amounts to be off-set against the pension benefit obligation or asset. This resulted in reconciling items to reclassify those amounts to accumulated other comprehensive income in the amount of $580,896 as at July 31, 2011.
| |
(c) | The Company adopted ASPE on a retrospective basis during the year ended January 31, 2012. The Company applied an exemption under Section 1500, First Time Adoption, effectively resetting the cumulative foreign currency translation balance to nil on adoption. This exemption is not permitted under US GAAP. |
| |
(d) | ASPE permits a company to use a tax payable methodology within the consolidated financial statements. Under US GAAP, a company must apply the deferred tax method of accounting. US GAAP uses the asset and liability method whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. Deferred income tax assets are recorded in the financial statements if realization is considered more likely than not. A valuation allowance is established, if necessary, to reduce any deferred income tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Additionally, the income tax adjustment reflects the impact on income taxes of the US GAAP adjustments described in this footnote. |
The adjustment related to the six months ended July 31, 2012 resulted in a decrease in deferred tax asset of $239,742, an increase in deferred tax liability of $440,152, a decrease in retained earnings of $1,021,018, an increase in income tax expense of $494,468 and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $153,344. The adjustment related to the six months ended July 31, 2011 resulted in an increase in deferred tax asset of $1,491,089, an increase in deferred tax liability of $89,071, an increase in retained earnings of $2,676,473 , a decrease in income tax expense of $1,118,011 and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $156,842.
| |
(e) | The Company has historically recorded cumulative translation adjustments ("CTA") under ASPE within equity whereas US GAAP requires CTA be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. |
| |
(f) | There are no differences that would impact the consolidated statement of cash flows as it pertains to the subtotals of operating, financing and investing activities. |

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the acquisition of EECOL by WESCO and to the effects of WESCO redeeming its 7.50% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 and entering into a Term Loan Agreement as if they had occurred on January 1, 2011 with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 and as of September 30, 2012 with respect to the unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the U.S. GAAP results of EECOL. Note 6 provides information with respect to the nature of the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) adjustments needed to conform EECOL's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the new accounting standards for private enterprises (“ASPE”) adopted by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) to those prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The EECOL historical financial statements have been translated from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
WESCO and EECOL had different fiscal year ends. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet combines WESCO's historical consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 with EECOL's historical consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2012. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 combines WESCO's historical consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 with EECOL's historical consolidated statement of operations for the year ended January 31, 2012. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 combines WESCO's historical consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 with EECOL's historical consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2012.
Assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments necessary to reasonably present this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with this unaudited pro forma
condensed combined financial information. The pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes have been made based on available information and, in the opinion of management, are reasonable. The preliminary purchase price has been allocated on a preliminary basis to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition based on their estimated fair values as of the completion of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income reflects the effects of applying certain preliminary purchase accounting adjustments to the historical consolidated results of operations, including items expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results, such as depreciation and amortization on acquired tangible and intangible assets. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income does not include non-recurring items such as pre-payment penalties on debt extinguishment of $1.9 million and transaction costs related to the acquisition of $4.0 million. A full and detailed valuation of EECOL's assets and liabilities is being completed and certain information and analyses remains pending at this time. The final purchase price allocation is subject to the final determination of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and, therefore, that allocation and the resulting effect on income from operations may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma amounts included herein.
The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to give effect to estimated pro forma events that are directly attributable to the acquisition, factually supportable and, with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results of operations. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits that may result from synergies that may be derived from any integration activities. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should not be considered indicative of actual results that would have been achieved had the acquisition occurred on the date indicated and do not purport to indicate results of operations for any future period.
In preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the following historical information was used:
| |
• | the audited consolidated financial statements of WESCO as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP; |
| |
• | the unaudited consolidated financial statements of WESCO as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP; |
| |
• | the audited consolidated financial statements of EECOL for the year ended January 31, 2012 prepared in accordance with ASPE and reconciled to U.S. GAAP; and |
| |
• | the unaudited consolidated financial statements of EECOL as of October 31, 2012 and for the nine months ended October 31, 2012 prepared in accordance with ASPE and reconciled to U.S. GAAP. |

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
Note 1: Basis of presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in connection with the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of EECOL by WESCO and to give effect to WESCO redeeming its 7.50% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 and entering into a Term Loan Agreement on December 11, 2012 and December 12, 2012, respectively. The preliminary purchase price for EECOL totaled $1.1 billion, net of cash acquired. At closing, the Company withheld $50.8 million of the purchase price which will be paid to the sellers in June 2014, subject to adjustment for any indemnification claims made by WESCO and accepted by the sellers, if any. The Company financed the acquisition with borrowings under a new Term Loan Agreement and its existing revolving credit facilities.
The acquisition of EECOL by WESCO has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The preliminary purchase price has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition based on their estimated fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income reflects the effects of applying certain preliminary purchase accounting adjustments to the historical consolidated results of operations, including items expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results, such as depreciation and amortization on acquired tangible and intangible assets. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income does not include non-recurring items such as debt prepayment penalties and transaction costs related to the acquisition. The final purchase price allocation is subject to the final determination of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and, therefore, that allocation and the resulting effect on income from operations may differ from the unaudited pro forma amounts included herein.
Assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments necessary to reasonably present this unaudited pro forma information are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes have been made based on available information and, in the opinion of management, are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should not be considered indicative of actual results that would have been achieved had the acquisition occurred on the date indicated and do not purport to indicate results of operations for any future period.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are presented in United States dollars ("$"), which is the reporting currency of WESCO. References to "CAD" represent amounts presented in Canadian dollars.
The EECOL audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2012 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended October 31, 2012 have been prepared in accordance with ASPE and are presented in CAD. For the purpose of preparing pro forma financial information only, Note 6 to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements provides additional information with respect to the nature of the U.S. GAAP
adjustments needed to conform EECOL's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with ASPE to those prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements, including the notes thereto, of WESCO (included in WESCO's annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q) and of EECOL (see Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 included with this Current Report on Form 8-K/A).
Note 2: Translation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated, and accordingly, financial information of EECOL used to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements was translated from CAD to U.S. dollars (Note 6) using the following exchange rates, which correspond with the exchange rates for the periods being presented:
|
| |
Balance sheet as of October 31, 2012: Closing rate | 1 CAD = $0.9994 |
Statement of consolidated income for the year ended January 31, 2012: Average for the period | 1 CAD = $1.0097 |
Statement of consolidated income for the nine months ended October 31, 2012: Average for the period | 1 CAD = $1.0007 |
Certain of the pro forma adjustments have been translated at the acquisition closing date exchange rate of 1 CAD = $1.016, such as the preliminary estimates of fair value of net assets acquired.
Note 3: Acquisition of EECOL
On December 14, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests in EECOL for $1.1 billion. EECOL is a full-line distributor of electrical equipment, products and services with 57 locations across Canada and 20 in South America. EECOL has a strong warehouse-based business focused on serving industrial, oil, gas, mining, utility, and commercial and residential construction customers.
The purchase price was financed with borrowings under a new Term Loan Agreement and the existing revolving credit facilities. The preliminary purchase price for EECOL based on the exchange rate on the date of the acquisition is summarized below (in millions):
|
| | | |
Cash paid to seller | $ | 1,069.9 |
|
Escrow fund for potential indemnifications and purchase price adjustments | 50.8 |
|
Total preliminary purchase price | $ | 1,120.7 |
|
The following represents the preliminary purchase price allocation. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed of EECOL have been measured on a preliminary basis using assumptions that
WESCO management believes are reasonable based on information currently available. A full and detailed valuation of the assets and liabilities of EECOL is being completed and certain information and analysis remains pending at this time. Therefore, it is possible that the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed could materially differ from those presented herein upon additional analysis.
The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation based on estimated fair values as of the acquisition date (in millions):
|

Cash | $ | 32.3 |

Note 4: Debt Financing
On December 12, 2012, in connection with the acquisition of EECOL, the Company redeemed its 7.50% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017. This redemption was a condition at closing on the Term Loan Agreement and Amended Revolving Credit Facility. The proceeds of the term loans and revolving credit facility were used to finance the purchase price of EECOL and fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction.
The Term Loan Agreement provides for a seven-year term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), which consists of two separate sub-facilities: (i) a Canadian sub-facility in an aggregate principal amount of CAD $150.0 million, issued at a 2.0% discount and (ii) a U.S. sub-facility in an aggregate principal amount of US $700.0 million, issued at a 1.0% discount.
Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at base rates plus applicable margins. At December 31, 2012, the interest rates on borrowings under the Canadian sub-facility and U.S. sub-facility were approximately 5.2% and 4.5%, respectively. The Borrowers will pay quarterly installments of principal equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of their respective term loans, plus accrued and unpaid interest, beginning on March 31, 2013.
The Amended Revolving Credit Facility matures in August 2016 and consists of two separate sub-facilities: (i) a Canadian sub-facility with a borrowing limit of up to US $400.0 million, which is collateralized by substantially all assets of WESCO Distribution Canada LP, WDCC
Enterprises Inc. and EECOL, and (ii) a U.S. sub-facility with a borrowing limit of up to US $600.0 million less the amount of outstanding borrowings under the Canadian sub-facility.
The applicable interest rate for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility includes interest rate spreads based on available borrowing capacity that range between 1.5% and 2.0% for LIBOR-based borrowings and 0.5% and 1.0% for prime rate-based borrowings. The otherwise applicable interest rate is reduced by 0.25% if the Company's leverage ratio falls below a ratio of 2.5 to 1.0.
On December 11, 2012, WESCO Distribution entered into an amendment of the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility under which WESCO sells, on a continuous basis, an undivided interest in all domestic accounts receivable to WESCO Receivables Corp., a wholly owned special purpose entity (the “SPE”). The SPE sells, without recourse, a senior undivided interest in the receivables to third-party conduits and financial institutions for cash while maintaining a subordinated undivided interest in the receivables, in the form of overcollateralization. This facility matures in August 2014.

A. | The following adjustments were made to reflect the preliminary estimate of the fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions) in the unaudited combined pro forma balance sheet: |
|
| | | |
Assets: | |
Accounts receivable | $ | (3.7 | ) |
Inventories | 2.9 |
|
Property and buildings | 24.8 |
|
Deferred taxes | (0.9 | ) |
Other current assets | (3.4 | ) |
Identifiable intangible assets | 300.4 |
|
Goodwill | 670.6 |
|
| |
Liabilities: | |
Other current liabilities | 34.7 |
|
Deferred taxes | 74.5 |
|
| |
B. | This adjustment represents the capitalization of the debt issuance costs associated with the new term loans and revolving credit facility and the elimination of existing unamortized debt issuance costs (in millions): |
|
| | | |
Debt issuance costs - new term loans and revolving credit facility | $ | 17.2 |
|
Elimination of existing unamortized debt issuance costs - Senior Subordinated Debt 2017 | (1.7 | ) |
| $ | 15.5 |
|
| |
C. | This adjustment reflects the repayment of the Senior Subordinated Debt 2017 and recognition of the $1.9 million pre-payment penalty. |
| |
D. | This adjustment represents the repayment of the outstanding balance on EECOL’s line of credit. |
| |
E. | The term loans discussed in Note 4, combined with borrowings against the revolving credit facility and accounts receivable securitization facility, were used to extinguish the Senior Subordinated Debt 2017 and fund the acquisition. This adjustment reflects the total borrowings against these facilities, net of the related debt discount of $10.0 million on the term loans. The following table shows the net proceeds from borrowings against each of the debt facilities (in millions): |
|
| | | |
Term Loan Facility | $ | 840.7 |
|
Revolving Credit Facility | 266.4 |
|
Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility | 159.8 |
|
| $ | 1,266.9 |
|
The excess of the purchase price and payment of the Senior Subordinated Debt 2017 over the net proceeds from borrowings, or $3.7 million, was funded with cash on hand.
| |
F. | Transaction costs related to the acquisition totaled $4.0 million. Of this amount, $1.4 million was incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and $2.6 million has been included in other current liabilities in the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet. |
| |
G. | This adjustment represents the elimination of EECOL’s historical equity. |
Adjustments to the unaudited pro forma combined income statements
| |
H. | This adjustment represents the net increase in depreciation expense resulting from the preliminary estimated fair value of certain property and buildings, resulting in adjustments of $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011, respectively. |
| |
I. | This adjustment reflects the increase in amortization expense related to recording EECOL’s customer relationships intangible asset at their preliminary estimated fair value, resulting in adjustments of $16.7 million and $22.8 million for the nine months ended |
September 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, respectively.
Identifiable intangible assets include the following (in millions):
|
| | | |
Customer relationships | $ | 245.2 |
|
Trademarks | 55.2 |
|
| $ | 300.4 |
|
The customer relationship assets are being amortized on an accelerated basis over 20 years. Amortization for the first five years follows: $22.8 million, $22.2 million, $20.3 million, $19.2 million, and $18.3 million. The trademarks have an indefinite life and are not being amortized.
| |
J. | This adjustment reflects the reversal of interest expense of $11.3 million and $8.4 million and the amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the year ended January 31, 2012 and the nine months ended October 31, 2012, respectively, relating to the Senior Subordinated Debt 2017 that was repaid just prior to the acquisition closing date. |
| |
K. | This adjustment represents interest expense on borrowings under the term loans, revolving credit facility, and accounts receivable securitization facility as if the borrowings occurred on January 1, 2011. The interest rates used to calculate pro forma interest expense on these debt facilities ranged from 1.4% to 4.5%. A 1/8th variance in interest rates would change pro forma interest expense by $1.2 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, respectively. |
| |
L. | This adjustment reflects amortization of debt issuance costs and discount related to the new term loans and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the amended revolving credit facility as if the debt was incurred on January 1, 2011. |
| |
M. | This adjustment eliminates the transaction costs incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as these costs are directly related to the acquisition and are not recurring. |
Adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma combined income statements for tax-related items
| |
N. | This adjustment represents the tax effect of pro forma adjustments and is based on the estimated applicable statutory tax rates in the U.S. and Canada. |

The following adjustments have been made to align the EECOL financial information with U.S. GAAP (all dollar amounts are in CAD).
| |
1. | US GAAP has specific guidance related to continuing involvement with respect to sale-lease backs of real estate that does not exist under ASPE. The Company concluded that one lease historically recorded as a sale-leaseback transaction in 2012 under ASPE was required to be re-characterized as a capital lease under US GAAP due to the lease containing elements of continuing involvement. In addition, the derecognition of the asset is prohibited under US GAAP. The above adjustments reverse the Company's historical recording of an asset sale and rent expense, generated a liability based on the proceeds received and recorded interest expense and amortization expense related to the obligation and the asset, respectively. |
| |
2. | The Company has historically valued their pension plans based on the calendar year-end which was appropriate under ASPE. US GAAP requires pensions to be valued as of the reporting date. The Company updated the valuations to reflect a valuation date that aligns with the Company's fiscal year ends. This resulted in reconciling items for the change in the pension benefit obligation and asset values. The adjustment related to the nine months ended October 31, 2012 resulted in decrease in pension expense of $738,838, a decrease in the accrued pension benefit liability of $2,217,246 and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $851,911. The adjustment related to the year ended January 31, 2012 resulted in decrease in pension expense of $358,810, an increase in the accrued pension benefit liability of $11,558,658 and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $14,143,736. |
Additionally, US GAAP requires that actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs & transition obligations be included in accumulated other comprehensive income whereas ASPE allows these amounts to be off-set against the pension benefit obligation or asset. This resulted in reconciling items to reclassify those amounts to accumulated other comprehensive income in the amount of $16,409,338 as at January 31, 2012.
| |
3. | The Company adopted ASPE on a retrospective basis during the year ended January 31, 2012. The Company applied an exemption under Section 1500, First Time Adoption, effectively resetting the cumulative foreign currency translation balance to nil on adoption. This exemption is not permitted under US GAAP. |
| |
4. | ASPE permits a company to use a tax payable methodology within the consolidated financial statements. Under US GAAP, a company must apply the deferred tax method of accounting. US GAAP uses the asset and liability method whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. Deferred income tax assets are recorded in the financial statements if realization is considered more likely than not. A valuation allowance is established, if necessary, to reduce any deferred income tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Additionally, the income tax adjustment reflects the impact on income taxes of the US GAAP adjustments described in this footnote. |
The adjustment related to the nine months ended October 31, 2012 resulted in a decrease in deferred tax asset of $1,744,426, a decrease in deferred tax liability of $776,888, a decrease in retained earnings of $2,626,905, and an increase in income tax expense of $1,659,367. The adjustment related to the year ended January 31, 2012 resulted in an increase in deferred tax asset of $4,015,826, an increase in deferred tax liability of $698,051, an increase in retained earnings of $420,696, an increase in income tax expense of $921,730 and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $3,818,809.
The adjustments described above reflect only those differences in accounting policies in effect at the time of the preparation of the historical financial statements of EECOL. There has been no attempt to identify future differences between ASPE and U.S. GAAP as the result of changes in accounting standards, transactions or events that may occur in the future.
