The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations have been prepared pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the separate historical financial statements and related notes of Solaris and MER.
The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations are based on and have been derived from the following historical financial statements of Solaris and MER:
• |
Audited consolidated financial statements of Solaris for the year ended December 31, 2024; |
• |
Unaudited interim condensed financial statements of MER for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. |
The Transaction is reflected in Solaris, Inc.'s historical consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on March 5, 2025. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 gives effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2024.
The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the business combination provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification 805, Business Combinations, with Solaris representing the acquirer under this guidance. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations give pro forma effect to the consummation of the Transaction on the terms provided for in the Contribution Agreement.

Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recognized as goodwill.

It is possible that Solaris' may identify additional differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

Note E - Transaction Accounting Pro Forma Adjustments
1. |
Incremental pro forma interest expense |
The pro forma adjustment relates to the incremental pro forma interest expense as a result of the additional financing obtained related to funding the Transaction with the assumption that such financing was obtained on January 1, 2024, and was outstanding for the entire year ended December 31, 2024.
On September 11, 2024, Solaris and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a senior secured term loan agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement") with Banco Santander, S.A. New York Branch, as administrative agent, and Silver Point Finance, LLC, as collateral agent, along with other participating lenders. Under the Term Loan Agreement, the lenders provided term loans totaling $325.0 million. Solaris utilized $162.3 million of the proceeds to fund the Transaction, with the remaining funds restricted for capital expenditures and are excluded from these pro forma. For purposes of the pro forma, Solaris has allocated $5.0 million of the total debt discount and issuance costs of $9.4 million to the pro forma adjustments on a pro-rata basis.
The borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement bear a variable interest rate, at Solaris' option, equal to either Term SOFR plus an applicable margin or the Base Rate (each as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus an applicable margin. Solaris utilized an assumed interest rate for the purposes of this pro forma of 10.8% consistent with its weighted average interest rate for the Term Loan Agreement.

4. |
Provision for income taxes |
The pro forma adjustment to provision for income taxes of $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 relates to the estimated income tax consequences of the pro forma adjustments to income (loss) before income tax expense. Solaris utilized a historical effective combined United States federal and state income tax rate of 20.2%. While Solaris has considered the impact on the effective tax rate for the combined entity, this determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the combined entity's effective tax rate.
5. |
Net loss (income) related to non-controlling interests |
The transaction accounting pro forma adjustment to net loss (income) related to non-controlling interests of $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 primarily relates to the increase in non-controlling interest percentage as a result of issuance of 16.5 million Solaris LLC units to the members of MER. The other transaction accounting pro forma adjustment to net loss (income) related to non-controlling interests of ($2.7 million) for the year ended December 31, 2024 relates to the share of non-controlling interests in the other transaction pro forma adjustments.
