UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Overview
On March 16, 2021, the Board of the Directors of Compass Minerals International, Inc. ("Compass Minerals" or the "Company") approved a plan to sell the Company’s South America chemicals and specialty plant nutrition businesses, investment in Fermavi Eletroquímica Ltda. (“Fermavi”) and North America micronutrient business (collectively, the “Specialty Businesses”). The Company concluded that the Specialty Businesses met the criteria for classification as held for sale upon receiving approval from its Board of Directors to sell the Specialty Businesses in the first quarter of 2021. In addition, the Company believes there is a single disposal plan representing a strategic shift that will have a material effect on its operations and financial results. Consequently, as of March 31, 2021, the Specialty Businesses were presented in the Company's financial statements as assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). Further, the Specialty Businesses are considered a group of related businesses, and therefore will be considered in the aggregate when evaluating the significance tests under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X.
On May 4, 2021, the Company completed the sale of a component of its North America micronutrient business to a subsidiary of Koch Industries. The sale of this business individually did not meet the significance tests under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X.
On July 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its South America specialty plant nutrition business, with the sale of 100% of the issued and outstanding quotas of Compass Minerals América do Sul Indústria e Comércio Ltda., a Brazilian limited liability company and subsidiary of the Company, to a subsidiary of ICL Group Ltd.
On June 28, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its investment in Fermavi for R$45 million Brazilian reais, or approximately $8.0 million U.S. dollars (including R$30 million Brazilian reais of deferred purchase price, or approximately $5.3 million U.S. dollars). The pending Fermavi sale is subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions, including receipt of necessary governmental approvals. The sale of the Company's South America chemicals business has not yet been completed; however, the prior-announced sale process is ongoing. The Company has determined that the dispositions of its investment in Fermavi and its South America chemicals business are probable. As a result, the Company has aggregated the results of the Specialty Businesses within the following unaudited pro forma financial information.
Basis of Presentation
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are based on the historical consolidated statements of the Company as reported under U.S. GAAP and have been adjusted to give effect to pro forma adjustments related to the sales of the Specialty Businesses, including the sale of the North America micronutrient business, the sale of the South America specialty plant nutrition business, the pending sale of the Company's investment in Fermavi and the probable disposition of the Company's South America chemicals business (collectively, the "Transactions"). The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021, and the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, are disaggregated to show consolidated amounts, discontinued operations and continuing operations amounts in separate columns.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and the year ended December 31, 2020, give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2020. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021, gives effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on March 31, 2021. The pro forma consolidated financial information does not necessarily reflect what the Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Transactions occurred on the dates indicated. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors. The pro-forma adjustments noted below are subject to change based upon actual account balances after translation at or after the closing of the ongoing sales processes, finalization of estimated proceeds, finalization of working capital and net indebtedness adjustments, among other things.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect certain assumptions and adjustments that the Company’s management believes are reasonable under the circumstances and as of the date of the Company's Amendment to Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 8, 2021. Therefore, actual adjustments may differ from the pro forma adjustments. However, management believes the pro forma assumptions provide a reasonable
1
basis for presenting significant effects of the Transactions as contemplated and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited consolidated pro forma financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been provided for informational purposes only and do not purport to project the future financial position or operating results that the Company would have reported had the Transactions been completed as of the dates set forth in these unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements, and is not necessarily indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position. The actual results may differ significantly from those reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, differences between the assumptions used to prepare the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and actual amounts. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited consolidated pro forma financial statements.
The unaudited consolidated pro forma financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and should be read in conjunction with the following:
•Audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the accompanying notes, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020;
•Unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and the accompanying notes, which are included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021;

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Pro Forma Adjustments
(a)Represents estimated net cash proceeds from the Transactions of $422.4 million, including $2.6 million in certain working capital adjustments and an adjustment of $106.6 million, primarily related to outstanding debt, with respect to the sale of the Company's South America specialty plant nutrition business. Pro forma adjustments also include a reduction of cash on the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet for payment of an estimated $8.0 million of aggregate transaction costs payable upon closing of each of the Transactions. The estimated cash proceeds reflected in the March 31, 2021, unaudited pro forma Consolidated Balance Sheet will likely be different from the actual cash proceeds received from the Transactions due to differences in the exchange rate for the Brazilian real, actual cash proceeds received for the Fermavi investment, actual cash proceeds received for the South America chemical business and other items which will be finalized at or after the closing of each of the Transactions.
Pro forma adjustment represents the estimated net cash proceeds from the Transactions, which includes the following (in millions):

| Transaction costs | (8.0) | ||||
| Cash bonuses | (1.0) | ||||

(b)Represents an estimated $11.9 million earn-out payment in connection with the sale of the South America plant nutrition business and the current portion of the deferred purchase price receivable with respect to the pending sale of the Fermavi investment of $1.3 million. The earn-out payment is subject to the achievement of certain full-year 2021 EBITDA performance targets, as described in the purchase and sale agreement for the Company's South America plant nutrition business.
(c)Represents the noncurrent portion of the deferred purchase price receivable from the buyer with respect to the pending sale of the Fermavi investment of $4.0 million.
