Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On May 17, 2005, Navarre Corporation filed a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting, among other things, that on May 11, 2005 it completed the acquisition of all of the partnership interests of FUNimation Productions, Ltd and The FUNimations Store, Ltd. (collectively “FUNimations”). As part of the 8-K, we indicated that the financial statements and pro forma financials required under Item 9.01 would be filed no later than 71 days following the date that the Form 8-K was required to be filed. This Amendment No. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K contains the required financial statements and pro forma financial information.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Partners of
FUNimation Productions, Ltd. and

     The FUNimation Store, Ltd.
Fort Worth, Texas

     We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of FUNimation Productions, Ltd. and The FUNimation Store, Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and the related combined statements of income, partners’ capital and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of FUNimation Productions, Ltd. and The FUNimation Store, Ltd. at December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The FUNimation Store, Ltd.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements

Note 1 — Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Organization and Business — FUNimation Productions, Ltd. (“Productions”), a limited partnership, is a diversified entertainment company whose operations consist primarily of the acquisition and production of animated television films for distribution and licensing to domestic broadcast and cable television networks as well as wholesale sales of those films in VHS and DVD formats to customers throughout North America. In addition, Productions also engages in the acquisition of merchandising licenses.

     The FUNimation Store, Ltd. (the “Store”), a limited partnership, is a retail company that sells related program merchandise primarily through the internet. Sales by Store approximated $2,490,000, $3,257,000 and $4,218,000 during 2004, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

     Principles of Combination — The combined financial statements include the accounts of Productions and Store (“the Company”). Productions was formed in 1994 as an S-corporation. In 1999, Productions elected to become a limited partnership. The Store was formed at the beginning of 2000 as a limited partnership. Both Productions and the Store are owned by partners that have substantially the same ownership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in combination.

     Partner Capital Accounts — The Companys’ partnership agreements each provide that the net cash flow (as defined) shall be distributed to the general and limited partners in accordance with their partnership percentage. Profits and losses (as defined) shall be allocated among the general and limited partners in the same proportions as net cash flow described above.

     Management’s Estimates and Assumptions — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company reviews all significant estimates affecting the financial statements on a recurring basis and records the effect of any necessary adjustments prior to their issuance.

     Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, which principally include cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity of such instruments. The fair value of the Company’s debt instruments approximates the amount of future cash flows associated with each instrument. The carrying value of debt instruments are not materially different from fair value, as the interest rate approximates rates currently available to the Company.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents — Investments in highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents.

     Accounts and Royalties Receivable — Accounts receivable represent trade receivables from customers less allowances for doubtful accounts and returns. Such allowances are established by management based on historical experience and evaluation of specific accounts. The Company generally does not require collateral from customers. Receivables are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts when management determines such accounts are uncollectible.

     Royalties receivable represent uncollected royalties earned on sale of licensed products, less allowances for doubtful accounts.

 


 

     A reserve for sales returns is established based on historical trends in product return rates. The reserve for sales returns as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 was $10,511,114, $17,322,424 and $20,247,958, respectively, for estimated future returns that were recorded as an offset to our revenues and accounts receivable. If the actual returns were to deviate from the historical data on which the reserve had been established, our revenues could be adversely affected.

     Revenue Recognition — All revenue is recognized upon meeting the recognition requirements of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 00-2, Accounting by Producers or Distributors of Films. Revenues from home video distribution are recognized, net of an allowance for estimated returns, in the period in which the product is available for sale by the Company’s customers (generally upon shipment to the customer and in the case of new releases, after “street date” restrictions lapse). Revenues from broadcast licensing and home video sublicensing are recognized when the programming is available to the licensee and other recognition requirements of SOP 00-2 are met. Fees received in advance of availability are deferred until revenue recognition requirements have been satisfied. Royalties on sales of licensed products are recognized in the period earned. In all instances, provisions for uncollectible amounts are provided at the time of sale.

     Inventories — Inventories consist primarily of finished products for sale and are carried at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Management periodically reviews inventory and provides reserves for excess, obsolete or damaged inventory based on changes in customer demand, technology and other economic factors.

     Participation Costs and License Fees — License Fees represent fixed minimum advance payments made to program suppliers for exclusive distribution rights. Distribution rights are granted under licensing agreements with initial terms that generally range from five to seven years. A program supplier’s share of distribution revenues (Participation Cost) is retained by the Company until the share equals the License Fees paid to the program supplier plus recoupable production costs. Thereafter, any excess is paid to the program supplier. License Fees are amortized as recouped by the Company. Participation costs are accrued in the same ratio that current period revenue for a title or group of titles bear to the estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenue for that title.

     Production Costs — Production costs represent unamortized costs of films and television programs, which have been produced by Productions or for which Productions has acquired distribution rights. Costs of produced films and television programs include all production costs, which are expected to be recovered from future revenues. Amortization of production costs is determined based on the ratio that current revenue earned from the films and television programs bear to the ultimate future revenue, as defined by SOP 00-2.

     When estimates of total revenues and costs indicate that an individual title will result in an ultimate loss, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent that license fees and production costs exceed estimated fair value, based on discounted cash flows, in the period when estimated.

     Property, Equipment and Depreciation — Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives (3 to 20 years) of the assets using the straight-line method. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets for possible impairment. In management’s opinion, there is no impairment of such assets at December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.

     Royalties Payable — Royalties payable represents management’s estimate of accrued and unpaid ultimate participation costs as of the end of the fiscal year. Royalties are generally due and paid to the licensor one month after each quarterly period for sales of merchandise and license fees received.

     The Company expects to pay 100% of accrued royalties during the next twelve months ended December 31, 2005.

 


 

     Advertising — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense amounted to approximately $2,376,000, $2,339,000 and $1,244,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

     Market Development Funds — In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products, the Company has classified market development funds deducted from payment for purchases by customers as a reduction to revenues.

     Shipping Income and Expenses — In accordance with EITF 00-10, Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs, the Company classifies amounts billed to customers for shipping fees as revenues, and classifies costs related to shipping as cost of sales.

     Income Taxes — The Company is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes; accordingly, a provision for income taxes has not been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Partnership income and losses are reflected in the partners’ individual or corporate income tax returns in accordance with their ownership percentages.

     Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets — In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by the Company. Such reviews are performed at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate full recoverability is questionable.

     Assessment of recoverability includes a comparison of the asset’s carrying value to the sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated from the asset’s use and eventual disposition. If the Company determines that impairment has occurred, the measurement of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its fair value. Factors used in ascertaining the estimated fair value include operating income before interest and television ratings, among others. Should the review determine impairment, the loss will be recognized through the statement of income, and the corresponding asset value will be reduced.

     Concentration of Credit Risk — Productions and the Store maintain cash and cash equivalents, including investments in money market securities, with various financial institutions. At December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, such amounts exceeded federally insured limits by approximately $5,203,238, $6,177,000, and $15,794,000, respectively. Management believes the risk of loss related to these balances is minimal.

     As of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 four, two and two customers made up 80%, 81% and 80% of gross accounts receivable, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, four, three, and three customers made up 72%, 72% and 77% of gross wholesale and retail sales, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2004, one licensor made up approximately 80% of license and royalty revenue. Revenue from this licensor included $10,000,000 related to a contract effective as of December 2004, and is included in accounts and royalties receivable at December 31, 2004.

     The Company operates under exclusive distribution rights granted by approximately 15 licensors. During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 82%, 92% and 95% of revenue, respectively, was derived from sales of products under multiple licensing arrangements with two licensors. The inability to access future licenses through a loss of these licensor relationships could have a material negative effect on the operations of the Company.

     New Accounting Pronouncements — In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs,” which amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material. This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal.” In addition, this Statement requires allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the financial condition or net income of the Company.

 


 

     In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. This standard eliminated the alternative of accounting for share-based compensation using APB Opinion No. 25. The revised standard generally requires the recognition of the cost of employee services based on the grant date fair value of equity or liability instruments issued. The effective date for the company is the beginning of the year ended December 31, 2006. The impact of the adoption on the company’s financial position or net income has not been determined.

Notes to Unaudited Combined Financial Statements

Note 1 - Interim Financial Information

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed combined financial statements contain all of the adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of FUNimation Productions, Ltd. (“Productions”) and The FUNimation Store, Ltd. (the “Store”) (collectively, the “Company”) as of March 31, 2005 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results of operations and cash flows for the current unaudited interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

While the Company believes the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the combined financial statements and notes to the combined financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 included in this 8-K/A filing.

Note 2 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Business - Productions, a limited partnership, is a diversified entertainment company whose operations consist of the acquisition and production of animated television films for distribution and licensing to broadcast and cable television networks as well as wholesale sales of those films in VHS and DVD formats. In addition, Productions also engages in the acquisition of merchandising licenses.

Store, a limited partnership, is a retail company that sells related program merchandise primarily through the internet. Sales by Store approximated $434,000 and $706,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Principles of Combination - The combined financial statements include the accounts of Productions and Store. Productions was formed in 1994 as an S-corporation. In 1999, Productions elected to become a limited partnership. The Store was formed at the beginning of 2000 as a limited partnership. Both Productions and the Store are owned by partners that have substantially the same ownership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in combination.

Partner Capital Accounts - The Companys’ partnership agreements provide that the net cash flow (as defined) shall be distributed to the general and limited partners in accordance with their partnership percentage. Excess revenue over expenses shall be allocated among the general and limited partners in the same proportions as net cash flow described above. Excess expenses over revenue shall be allocated, in all cases, among the general and limited partners in accordance with their partnership percentages.

Management’s Estimates and Assumptions - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company reviews all significant estimates affecting the financial statements on a recurring basis and records the effect of any necessary adjustments prior to their issuance.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, which principally include cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity of such instruments. The fair value of the Company’s debt instruments approximates the amount of future cash flows associated with each instrument. The carrying value of debt instruments are not materially different from fair value, as the interest rate approximates rates currently available to the Company.


 

FUNimation Productions, Ltd. and
The FUNimation Store, Ltd.

Notes to Unaudited Combined Financial Statements

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Investments in highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents.

Accounts and Royalties Receivable - Accounts receivable represent trade receivables from customers less allowances for doubtful accounts and returns. Such allowances are established by management based on historical experience and evaluation of specific accounts. Receivables are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts when management determines such accounts are uncollectible.

Royalties receivable represent uncollected royalties earned on sale of licensed products, less allowances for doubtful accounts.

A reserve for sales returns is established based on historical trends in product return rates. The reserve for sales returns as of March 31, 2005 was $6,995,000, for estimated future returns that were recorded as an offset to revenues and accounts receivable. If the actual returns were to deviate from the historical data on which the reserve had been established, revenues could be adversely affected.

Revenue Recognition - All revenue is recognized upon meeting the recognition requirements of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 00-2, Accounting by Producers or Distributors of Films. Revenues from home video distribution are recognized, net of an allowance for estimated returns, in the period in which the product is available for sale by the Company’s customers (generally upon shipment to the customer and in the case of new releases, after “street date” restrictions lapse). Revenues from broadcast licensing and home video sublicensing are recognized when the programming is available to the licensee and other recognition requirements of SOP 00-2 are met. Fees received in advance of availability are deferred until revenue recognition requirements have been satisfied. Royalties on sales of licensed products are recognized in the period earned. In all instances, provisions for uncollectible amounts are provided at the time of sale.

Inventories - Inventories consist primarily of finished products for sale and are carried at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Management periodically reviews inventory and provides reserves for excess, obsolete or damaged inventory based on changes in customer demand, technology and other economic factors.

Participation Costs and License Fees - License Fees represent fixed minimum advance payments made to program suppliers for exclusive distribution rights. A program supplier’s share of distribution revenues (“Participation Cost”) is retained by the Company until the share equals the License Fees paid to the program supplier plus recoupable production costs and assessed for impairment. Thereafter, any excess is paid to the program supplier. License Fees are amortized as recouped by the Company. Participation costs are accrued in the same ratio that current period revenue for a title or group of titles bear to the estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenue for that title.

Production Costs - Production costs represent unamortized costs of films and television programs, which have been produced by Productions or for which Productions has acquired distribution rights. Costs of produced films and television programs include all production costs, which are expected to be recovered from future revenues. Amortization of production costs is determined based on the ratio that current revenue earned from the films and television programs bear to the ultimate future revenue, as defined by SOP 00-2.

When estimates of total revenues and costs indicate that an individual title will result in an ultimate loss, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent that license fees and production costs exceed estimated fair value, based on discounted cash flows, in the period when estimated.

Property, Equipment and Depreciation - Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives (3 to 20 years) of the assets using the straight-line method. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets for possible impairment. In management’s opinion, there is no impairment of such assets at March 31, 2005.

Notes to Unaudited Combined Financial Statements

Royalties Payable - Royalties payable represents management’s estimate of accrued and unpaid ultimate participation costs as of the end of the fiscal year. Royalties are generally due and paid to the licensor one month after each quarterly period for sales of merchandise and license fees received.

Advertising - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense amounted to approximately $189,000 and $136,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Market Development Funds - In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products, the Company has classified market development funds deducted from payment for purchases by customers as a reduction to revenues.

Income Taxes - The Company is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes; accordingly, a provision for income taxes has not been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Partnership income and losses are reflected in the partners’ individual or corporate income tax returns in accordance with their ownership percentages.

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets - In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by the Company. Such reviews are performed at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate full recoverability is questionable.

Assessment of recoverability includes a comparison of the asset’s carrying value to the sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated from the asset’s use and eventual disposition. If the Company determines that impairment has occurred, the measurement of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its fair value. Factors used in ascertaining the estimated fair value include operating income before interest and television ratings, among others. Should the review determine impairment, the loss will be recognized through the statement of income, and the corresponding asset value will be reduced.

Concentration of Credit Risk - As of March 31, 2005, four customers made up 69% of gross accounts receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, three and three customers made up 58% and 82% of revenues, respectively. The Company operates under exclusive distribution rights granted by approximately 18 licensors. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, 76% and 83% of gross revenue, respectively, was derived from sales of products under multiple licensing arrangements with three and two licensors. The inability to access future licenses through a loss of these licensor relationships could have a material negative effect on the operations of the Company.

     Faulconer Productions Music Corp. v. FUNimation Productions, Inc. et al.

Faulconer Productions Music Corporation (FPMC) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas on September 24, 2003 alleging that FUNimation Productions, Ltd. and certain other defendants fraudulently induced it to enter into contracts pursuant to which FUNimation had commissioned it to compose music for certain television episodes. FPMC also claims that it owns all copyrights in the music and that FUNimation has infringed upon its music copyrights. FPMC is asserting state law claims for fraudulent inducement, fraudulent misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, negligence, breach of contract, unjust enrichment, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, conspiracy to commit fraud, and a host of similar claims related to a proposed settlement agreement related to this case. FPMC seeks damages of approximately $13.0 million.

FUNimation instituted an action against FPMC and Bruce Faulconer, a principle of FPMC, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. These two cases were consolidated in the Eastern District of Texas. FUNimation asserts claims for trademark and copyright infringement, passing off, and breach of contract. Actual damages have not yet been calculated. FUNimation also seeks attorneys’ fees on the copyright infringement and contract claims and in connection with the defense of FPMC’s copyright infringement claims.

FUNimation has filed a motion to dismiss all fraud-based, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, negligent misrepresentation, and negligence claims. Additionally, this motion to dismiss seeks the dismissal of all claims relating to the individual defendants.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the pro forma effect of the acquisition of FUNimation Productions, Ltd. and The FUNimation Store, Ltd. (together “FUNimation”) by Navarre Corporation (“the Company” or “Navarre”) on Navarre’s historical financial position and results of operations using the purchase method of accounting. The acquisition was effective May 11, 2005. The fiscal year of Navarre ends on March 31 of each year, and the fiscal year of FUNimation ends on December 31 of each year. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2005 is based on the assumption that the FUNimation acquisition had occurred as of that date.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

As of March 31, 2005

(1)   Represents the remaining net proceeds from debt financing (see Note 4 below), after payment of $100.4 million cash portion of the purchase price for the FUNimation acquisition and costs related to the FUNimation acquisition.

(2)   Represents goodwill associated with the FUNimation acquisition, calculated as follows:

         
Total purchase price:
       
Cash consideration
  $ 100,400  
Common stock issued
    14,145  
Costs associated with the transaction
    3,300  
 
     
 
  $ 117,845  
 
       
Less historical net assets acquired, including:
       
Current assets
    (28,868 )
Property and equipment
    (1,978 )
Identifiable intangibles
    (22,647 )
Plus liabilities assumed
    16,107  
 
     
Preliminary amount of purchase price assigned to goodwill
  $ 80,459  
 
     

    The final allocation of consideration to acquired intangible assets is subject to an independent appraisal and final analysis of the fair market value of individual items acquired.

    The final allocation of the purchase price is also subject to the determination of the total equity value of FUNimation as of the closing date of the FUNimation acquisition and final settlement of the account receivables holdback adjustment in accordance with the terms of the FUNimation acquisition agreement. We expect the FUNimation total equity value determination to be finalized during the six months following the closing of the FUNimation acquisition, and we expect the accounts receivable holdback amount, less any amount retained by us, to be released to the FUNimation sellers within 120 days following the closing of the FUNimation acquisition. Any adjustments made as a result of the FUNimation total equity value and the holdback adjustment could result in a change in goodwill of up to $5.0 million.

    The above purchase price does not reflect additional consideration of up to $17.0 million in cash that may be owed to the FUNimation sellers if certain financial targets relating to the FUNimation business are met during the five-year period following the closing of the FUNimation acquisition.

(3)   Represents costs related to the debt agreement to finance the FUNimation acquisition.

(4)   Represents the proceeds from debt financing which consists of a Term Loan B sub-facility and a Term Loan C sub-facility. The facility amounts will be repaid at an annual rate of $5.0 million plus interest, an annual payment based on a percentage of free cash flow as defined by the debt agreement, and a balloon payment at the end of the term. The Term Loan B sub-facility expires in May 2011 and the Term Loan C sub-facility expires in November 2011. The net proceeds were used to pay the $100.4 million cash portion of the purchase price for the FUNimation acquisition and for general working capital needs.

(5)   The actual number of shares to be issued in connection with the FUNimation acquisition were determined by dividing $25.0 million by the average volume-weighted price of our common stock for the 20-trading day period immediately preceding the closing date of the FUNimation acquisition, subject to a minimum of 1,495,216 shares and a maximum of 1,827,486 shares. The maximum 1,827,486 shares of Common Stock were issued at $7.74.

(6)   Represents the elimination of the FUNimation partners’ capital upon closing of the FUNimation acquisition.

(1)   Historical FUNimation financial information is for the year ended December 31, 2004.
 
(2)   Adjusts for interest expense at a pro forma rate of 8.5% related to the $140.0 million of Term B notes related to the FUNimation acquisition and amortization of debt issuance costs of $2,917,000 amortized over six years.
 
(3)   In the historical period set forth above, Navarre had net operating loss carryforwards that offset all or a significant portion of its taxable income. The pro formas were prepared assuming such net operating loss carryforwards were fully utilized in the pro forma period. Accordingly, the pro formas include a provision for pro forma income tax expense assuming an effective tax rate of 37% for Navarre and an effective tax rate of 34% for FUNimation. The difference in assumed tax rates for Navarre and FUNimation results from a higher combined federal and state income tax rate applicable to Navarre. At April 1, 2004, we had $11.0 million of net operating loss carryforwards and, at March 31, 2005, we had no deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
 
(4)   Represents the issuance of 1,827,486 shares of Navarre common stock in connection with the FUNimation acquisition. Per the purchase agreement, the actual number of shares issued was determined by dividing $25.0 million by the average volume-weighted price of our common stock for the 20-trading day period immediately prior to the closing date of the transaction, subject to a minimum of 1,495,216 shares and a maximum of 1,827,486 shares.
