DLH UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements combine the historical consolidated financial information of DLH Holdings Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) and the financial statements of Grove Resource Solutions, LLC. (“GRSi”), acquired on December 8, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the Company’s acquisition of GRSi as if the acquisition had been consummated at October 1, 2021 for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended September 30, 2022.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet at September 30, 2022 gives effect to the acquisition of GRSi as if the acquisition had been consummated on that date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized based upon their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.

The Company’s historical financial information was derived from its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2022 (as filed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 5, 2022). The Company’s historical financial statements used in preparing the unaudited pro forma financial data are summarized and should be read in conjunction with its historical financial statements and risk factors, all of which are included in the filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission noted above. GRSi’s profroma financial information for the year ended September 30, 2022 was derived from its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included in this report, and the unaudited financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Company is providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined information for illustrative purposes only and such pro forma information does not represent the consolidated results or financial position of the Company had its acquisition of GRSi been completed as of the dates indicated. The companies may have performed differently had they been combined during the periods presented. Specifically, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies, revenue enhancements or restructuring costs that the combined company may achieve or incur as a result of the acquisition. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies actually been combined during the periods presented. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined company.

The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent the Company’s best estimates and are based upon available information and upon certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable, as described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, including the accompanying notes, should be read in conjunction with:


						•The Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 5, 2022;
						•GRSi’s historical financial statements and accompanying notes for its fiscal years ended, December 31 2021 and 2020, included as Exhibit 99.1 in this amended Current Report on Form 8-K;
						•GRSi’s unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, included as Exhibit 99.2 in this amended Current Report on Form 8-K; and
						•The Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 to The Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on December 14, 2022.

The preliminary base purchase price of $185.0 million for GRSi on December 8, 2022 included a target net working capital of $13.0 million, net of cash acquired. Our estimated pro forma balance sheet included herein is stated as if the transaction occurred on September 30, 2022. As such, the estimated net working capital at September 30, 2022 is $13.6 million, reflecting a surplus of $0.6 million over the $13.0 million target. This increased the estimated purchase price as of September 30, 2022, from $185.0 million to $188.8 million, which includes cash acquired, net working capital and acquired indebtedness of $0.4 million. Working capital balances on the actual date of the acquisition, December 8, 2022, will be different from those estimated at September 30, 2022. Future adjustments for working capital excess (deficit) compared to the $13.0 million target will change as we finalize valuations and financial results as of the actual date of the acquisition on December 8, 2022

Notes to accompanying Financial Statements:

1. Description of the transaction and basis of presentation

On December 8, 2022, we acquired 100% of the equity interests of Grove Resource Solutions, LLC. (“GRSi”) for a purchase price of $185.0 million, subject to certain adjustments including a final assessment of GRSi's closing working capital. The preliminary base purchase price of $185.0 million included a target net working capital of $13.0 million, net of cash acquired. Future adjustments for working capital excess (deficit) compared to the $13.0 million target will change as we finalize valuations and financial results as of the actual date of the acquisition on December 8, 2022. The acquisition was financed through borrowings of $178 million under our existing credit facility and $7.0 million of the Company's equity. The credit facility includes a $190.0 million term loan and $70.0 million revolving line of credit.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared based upon the Company’s historical financial information and the historical financial information of GRSi, giving effect to the acquisition and related adjustments described in these notes. Certain note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted as permitted by SEC rules and regulations.

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the acquisitions actually taken place at the dates indicated and do not purport to be indicative of future financial position or operating results.

GRSi’s operating results included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended September 30, 2022 are not intended to represent or be indicative of operating results for a full year. Certain contracts within GRSi’s operations had seasonality in their historical performance and such seasonality can continue in the future.

2. Purchase accounting

The acquisition of GRSi is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized based upon their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.

The fair values of the assets and liabilities in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based upon a preliminary assessment of fair value and may change when the final valuation of intangible assets, working capital and tax-related matters are finalized.

Based on December 8, 2022 data, we estimated total acquisition consideration and the preliminary allocation of fair value to the related assets and liabilities as follows:
