UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On September 30, 2021 (“Closing Date”), ABM Industries Incorporated, which operates through its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “ABM,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), completed the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Crown Building Maintenance Co. and Crown Energy Services, Inc. (collectively, “Able”). The preliminary purchase price for Able was $830 million, subject to customary adjustments for working capital inclusive of debt-like items. The Acquisition was completed for a net cash purchase price of $741.7 million. Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, approximately $12.1 million of the cash consideration was placed into escrow accounts, of which approximately $8.2 million was placed into escrow to satisfy any applicable indemnification claims for a period of 12 months. To fund the cash purchase price, we used cash on hand and borrowed $325.0 million on September 30, 2021 at an average interest rate of 1.58% from our revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”) under our syndicated secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”).

ABM and Able are providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (“Pro Forma Financial Statements”) to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the business combination described below. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses” and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on ABM and Able’s historical financial information as adjusted to give effect to the business combination described below and the related financing as if the transactions had been completed on July 31, 2021 with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, and as of November 1, 2019 with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the nine months ended July 31, 2021. ABM’s fiscal year ends on October 31, while Able’s fiscal year ends on December 31. Given that the fiscal year end of Able is within one quarter of ABM’s fiscal year, in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, the historical financial statements of each entity have been combined without any conforming adjustments with respect to this difference in fiscal periods.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of July 31, 2021 combines the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of ABM as of July 31, 2021 with the unaudited condensed combined balance sheet of Able as of June 30, 2021, which is the latest period of Able included within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020, combines the audited consolidated statement of comprehensive income of ABM for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020, with the audited combined statement of income of Able for the year ended December 31, 2020. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, combines the unaudited consolidated statement of comprehensive income of ABM for the nine months ended July 31, 2021, with the unaudited condensed combined statement of income of Able for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. Able’s historical results for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 were derived by combining the results from the six months ended June 30, 2021 with results for the three months ended December 31, 2020 in order to disclose a consistent length of the periods between entities. Accordingly, Able’s revenue and net income of $275.8 million and $15.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, respectively, are included in both the annual and interim unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are derived from, and should be read in conjunction with the ABM’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended July 31, 2021 filed on September 9, 2021, and ABM’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 filed on December 17, 2020. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should also be read in conjunction the historical unaudited combined financial statements of Able as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and the historical audited combined financial statements of Able as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The foregoing historical financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared based on the aforementioned historical financial statements and the assumptions and adjustments as described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and methodologies that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the business combination referred to below and do not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of future

Exhibit 99.3
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Pro Forma Financial Statements have been prepared based on the aforementioned historical financial statements and the assumptions and pro forma adjustments as described in Note 4. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and methodologies that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the transactions referred to below. Additionally, the pro forma adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of this filing and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed. Management considers this basis of presentation to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under ASC Topic 805, all assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized and measured at their assumed acquisition date fair value, while transaction costs associated with the business combination are expended as incurred. The excess purchase price consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to goodwill.

The Company has completed a preliminary review of Able’s accounting policies and identified one material change required to conform with the Company’s accounting policy, which is the adoption of ASC Topic 842, Leases. The pro forma transaction accounting adjustments as described in Note 4 include a conforming adjustment for this policy change. Additionally, the Pro Forma Financial Statements adjust Able’s presentation results to conform to the Company’s presentation. Refer to Note 2.

The Company accrued estimated certain direct and incremental acquisition expenses totaling $19.8 million in connection with the Acquisition. In addition, Able accrued $11.0 million of additional direct and incremental acquisition expenses. All of the $30.8 million of estimated acquisition expenses to be incurred are included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income. These costs will not affect the statement operations beyond twelve months after the Closing Date.

We round amounts in the Pro Forma Financial Statements to millions and calculate per-share data from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Thus, certain amounts may not foot, crossfoot, or recalculate based on reported numbers due to rounding.

c.     Reflects the pro forma adjustment to remove Able’s historical intangibles of $3.9 million, which consisted of customer contracts and relationships and record intangibles associated with customer relationships of $240.0 million and trade names of $10.0 million associated with the acquisition based on the preliminary purchase price allocation. The fair values of the intangibles were determined using an income approach based on data specific to Able as well as market participant assumptions where appropriate. The customer relationships intangible will be amortized using the sum-of-the-years-digits method over the estimated useful life of 14 years. The trade name intangible will be amortized straight-line over 2 years.

(1) Land and building and improvements with a net book value of $3.3 million at June 30, 2021 were retained by Able’s previous owners and leased to the Company on the date of the Acquisition. The removal of the land and building and improvements at the date of Acquisition is reflected in the adjustment at Note 4(k).

With other assumptions held constant, a 10% increase in the fair value adjustment for amortizable intangible assets would increase the annual pro forma amortization expense by approximately $3.7 million.

n.     The pro forma adjustment for interest expense for the year ended October 31, 2020 and the nine months ended July 31, 2021 is as follows:

Line of Credit$325.0 $5.1 $3.9 
Less: Able historical interest expense(1.2)(0.8)
Pro forma adjustment$3.9 $3.1 

Debt proceeds are U.S.-dollar-denominated borrowings under the Line of Credit and bear interest at 1-month LIBOR plus a spread of 0.375% to 1.250% that is based upon our leverage ratio. The pro forma interest expense is based on average interest rate of 1.58% at the issuance date of September 30, 2021. A change in interest rates of 1/8% would change the annual pro forma interest expense by $0.6 million on the Line of Credit.

o.     The pro forma adjustment for income tax provision for the year ended October 31, 2020, and the nine months ended July 31, 2021, is as follows:

(14.3)(12.0)
Record income tax provision on pro forma adjustments (3)
(9.3)(7.2)
Pro forma adjustment$(21.9)$(17.5)

(1) Adjustment removes Able’s historical tax provision as Able was previously subject to S corporation tax (primarily California) prior to the Acquisition. Upon Acquisition, Able converted from S corporations to C corporations for tax purposes.
(2) Adjustment records the income tax provision on Able’s income from continuing operations based on an estimated tax rate of 28%. Because the tax rate used for these Pro Forma Financial Statements is an estimate, it will likely vary from the actual effective rate in future periods.
(3) Adjustment records an estimated statutory rate of 28% on pro forma adjustments related to the Company.
