5.8 Preliminary pro forma financial information<br />

5.8.1 Purpose of the pro forma financial information<br />

The pro forma financial information presented below shows group accounts for Komplett and TCG<br />

as if they had been operating as one unit for the financial year ended 31 December 2006 and the<br />

first half of 2007.<br />

The unaudited pro forma financial income statement is provided for illustrative purposes only to<br />

show the effects of the acquisition described, as if it had been completed on 1 January 2006 with a<br />

balance sheet as if it had been completed 30 June 2007.<br />

The pro forma financial information is based on certain assumptions that not necessarily would<br />

have been applicable if Komplett and TCG were one group in the periods presented in the pro<br />

forma financial information.<br />

5.8.2 Basis for preparation<br />

Because of its nature, the pro forma financial information addresses a hypothetical situation and,<br />

therefore, does not represent the Merged Company’s actual financial position or results. The pro<br />

forma condensed consolidated income statement for 2006 is prepared based on the audited<br />

consolidated income statements for 2006 for Komplett and TCG, respectively, prepared in<br />

accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. The pro forma<br />

condensed consolidated balance sheet as of 30 June 2007 and the condensed consolidated income<br />

statement for the six months period then ended, have been prepared based on unaudited<br />

condensed consolidated interim financial information for Komplett and TCG, respectively, prepared<br />

in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. Komplett’s<br />

accounting principles have been applied. Historic financial statements for Komplett and TCG kan be<br />

found in appendix 1 and 5. For separate TCG figures and IFRS adjustments, please see section 7.5.<br />

The pro forma consolidated financial information does not include all of the information required for<br />

financial statements under International Financial Reporting Standards, and should be read in<br />

conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Komplett and TCG as of and for the year<br />

ended 31 December 2006 and the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information<br />

for the interim period ended 30 June 2007. On a general basis, it is emphasized that there is a high<br />

uncertainty related to pro forma consolidated financial information. The pro forma consolidated<br />

financial information is not deemed to represent the actual combination of the financial statements<br />

of Komplett and TCG in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, since certain<br />

simplifications and highly uncertain estimates and assumptions have been made as set out in the<br />

subsequent paragraphs.<br />

In addition, the pro forma financial information has been prepared on the following basis:
