REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Year ending December 31st ,2019

To the Shareholders,

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of LIXOFT, which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2019 the profit and loss statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with French accounting standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.


LIXOFT<br><br> <br>Report on the financial statementsYear ending December 31st 2019

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LIXOFT as at December 31st, 2019, and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance with French accounting standards.

Without no modification of the opinion expressed above, we draw your attention on the Note 1 – “Règles et méthodes comptables”, which set out the change in accounting policy during the year related to the recognition of development costs.

I. ACCOUNTING RULES AND METHODS

(Decree nº 83-1020 of 29-11-1983 - articles 7, 21, 24start, 24-1, 24-2 and 24-3)

The balance sheet before allocation for the financial year ended 31/12/2019 shows a total of 5,472,438 euros.

The profit and loss account for the year, presented; in the form of a list, the total income of which is 3,267,672 euros, shows a result of 1,718,740 euros.

The financial year has a duration of 12 months, covering the period from 01/01/2019 to 31/12/2019. The notes or tables below are an integral part of the annual accounts.

The corporate accounts are drawn up in accordance with the accounting rules and principles generally accepted in France according to the provisions of the general accounting plan (ANC Regulation n ° 2014-03 on the PCG and following).

General accounting policies have been applied in accordance with the principle of prudence, in accordance with the basic assumptions:

faithful picture
comparability and continuity of operations regularity and
sincerity independence of fiscal years
The basic method used for the valuation of items entered in the accounts is the historical cost method.

Only significant information is expressed.

The tax regime for intellectual property was extended to software companies from 1 January 2019. This scheme allows to calculate a tax on corporations to 10% on the results related to each asset. The activity of Lixoft being mainly the sale of licenses for the software it creates, Lixoft decided to opt for the tax system. For this to be applicable, the software concerned by this tax regime must be activated. Excluding, Lixoft's development expenses have always been recognized as expenses. Lixoft therefore decided to opt for the benchmark method by activating these costs this year.

The impact on the 2018 income statement is 320,361 euros, according to the table below.

II. FAITS MARQUANTS


The partners noted the final completion of the cancellation of the 1,674 shares at a nominal value of 1 euro, by redemption by the Company on December 27, 2019.

The company opted for the IP BOX tax system, allowing it to submit part of its profit to 10%.

III. NOTES TO THE BALANCE SHEET AND STATEMENT OF INCOME


3.1. Fixed assets


Investments (see attached table)

Depreciation (see attached table)

Intangible and tangible fixed assets are valued at their acquisition cost, after deduction of discounts, rebates and payment discounts or at their production cost. Ancillary costs are not included in the acquisition cost of fixed assets.

During the year, the company decided to activate research and development costs for a total amount of € 648,133. (see paragraph 3.6.)

During the year, the company acquired computer equipment for a total amount of 10,435 euros, and a brand for 20,000 euros and a license for 30,000 euros from INRIA.

Depreciation for depreciation is calculated using the linear method based on the useful life which corresponds to the generally accepted useful life, hence the absence of special depreciation. No component has been identified in the corporate accounts:

Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the pro forma combined balance sheets and results of operations of the combined company based upon the historical financial statements of Simulations Plus, Inc. (“SIMPLUS”) and Lixoft, a French société par actions simplifiée (“Lixoft”), after giving effect to the acquisition of Lixoft and adjustments described in the following footnotes, and are intended to reflect the impact of this acquisition on SIMPLUS on a pro forma basis.

On March 31, 2020, Simulations Plus, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Share Purchase and Contribution Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the owners of Lixoft, (the “Transferors”) whereby the Company shall acquire 100% of the equity interests of Lixoft from the Transferors on a debt-free basis which shall result in Lixoft becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Transaction”).

As consideration for the Transaction, the Company shall provide up to US$16,500,000 in aggregate consideration to the Transferors consisting of two-thirds (2/3) cash and one-third (1/3) in newly issued shares of restricted common stock of the Company (the “Shares”), as follows:

· US$11,000,000 shall be issued at closing (the “Closing Consideration”) consisting of:
o US$7,333,333 in cash; plus
--- ---
o US$3,666,667 in Shares
--- ---
· Up to US$5,500,000 issuable in connection with future earnout payments (2/3 cash and 1/3 Shares) (the “Earnout Consideration”):
--- ---
o Number of Shares to be determined by the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock for the thirty (30)<br>trading days immediately preceding each earnout reference date;
--- ---
o Subject to customary exchange rate provisions defining an acceptable range of USD/EUR exchange rate fluctuation;
--- ---
o Payable in two installments: 12 months and 24 months after closing if and to the extent certain year-over-year performance<br>thresholds are met
--- ---

A portion of the Closing Consideration, totaling US$2,000,000 (2/3 in cash and 1/3 in Shares), shall be held back (with the Shares being held in an escrow account) against any indemnification claims by the Company for a period of 24 months after the closing of the Transaction.

In addition, at closing, the cash consideration at closing payable to Transferors was increased by the amount by which Lixoft’s cash on hand exceeds US$150,000, which amount the Company estimates to be approximately US$3,600,000 (“Excess Cash”), and reduced by the amount of Lixoft’s indebtedness and transaction expenses at closing. The aforementioned consideration is subject to adjustment in the event certain working capital targets differ from working capital at closing.

The Shares issued in the Transaction shall not have registration rights and may not be sold for a period of two years after closing of the Transaction.

Lixoft shall be responsible for all taxes relating to all periods prior to and up to the closing of the Transaction. Certain members of senior management of Lixoft have agreed to remain employed and/or consulting with the Company for a period of three years after the closing of the Transaction and shall enter into customary employment/consulting arrangements, including non-competition and non-solicitation provisions for such period.

| 1 |

| --- |

The Purchase Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties. Each party has agreed, among other things, (i) to generally conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice during the interim period between the execution of the Purchase Agreement and the closing (other than agreed actions to be taken in anticipation of the closing); (ii) not to engage in certain types of transactions during this period; and (iii) to secure all necessary approvals to ratify the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet reflects the acquisition of Lixoft as if it had been consummated on February 29, 2020 and includes pro forma adjustments for preliminary valuations by SIMPLUS management of certain tangible and intangible assets as of the acquisition date of April 1, 2020. These adjustments are subject to further revision upon finalization of the transaction, the related intangible asset valuations and fair value determinations.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 and for the six months ended February 29, 2020 combines SIMPLUS’s historical results for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 and the six months ended February 29, 2020 with Lixoft’s historical results for the same periods. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations gives effect to the acquisition as if it had been consummated on September 1, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only. They do not purport to represent what SIMPLUS’s combined results of operations and financial position would have been had the transaction actually occurred as of the dates indicated, and they do not purport to project SIMPLUS’s future combined results of operations or financial position.


Pro Forma Adjustments

Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated purchase price and to reflect the amounts related to Lixoft’s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities at an amount equal to the preliminary estimate of their fair values. The historical combined financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition and (2) factually supportable and reasonable under the circumstances. There are no events that are expected to have a continuing impact and therefore, no adjustments to the pro forma condensed combined statements of operations were made in that regard.

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the completion of the acquisition are based upon the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 805 “Business Combinations” and the assumptions set forth in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet has been adjusted to reflect the preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price to identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, including an amount for goodwill representing the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that SIMPLUS believes are reasonable under the circumstances. A final determination of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may differ materially from the preliminary estimates. This final valuation will be based on the actual fair values of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed of Lixoft that are acquired as of the date of completion of the acquisition. The final valuation may change the purchase price allocation, which could affect the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and could result in a change to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

SIMULATIONS PLUS, INC.


NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSEDCOMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The acquisition method of accounting under U.S. GAAP requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date. Fair value is defined under U.S. GAAP as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use by these market participants. Fair value measurements can be highly subjective and it is possible that other professionals, applying reasonable judgment to the same facts and circumstances, could develop and support a range of alternative estimated amounts. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective fair values and added to those of SIMPLUS.


2. Acquisition of Lixoft

On April 1, 2020, Lixoft, a private company provider of modeling and simulation software for advanced model-based drug development, specializing in non-linear mixed effects modeling (NMLE) for pharmacometrics, became a wholly owned subsidiary of SIMPLUS pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase and Contribution Agreement, dated March 31, 2020 (the “Agreement”), by and among SIMPLUS, and the shareholders of Lixoft (the “Lixoft Shareholders”), each, a “Party,” and collectively, the “Parties.” The merger is accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting.

On April 1, 2020, the Company consummated the acquisition of all outstanding capital stock of Lixoft pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Lixoft became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company: (1) paid to the Lixoft Shareholders Eleven Million Dollars ($11,000,000) payable at the closing of the Acquisition (the “Closing”) subject to certain adjustments and holdbacks as provided in the Agreement and as more fully described below; and (2) will pay to the Lixoft Shareholders certain earn-out payments, to be measured by the revenues of Lixoft, payable following the Closing, as more particularly described in the Agreement and as more fully described below (the “Earn-out Payments”):

(i) On April 1, 2017, the Company paid the Lixoft Shareholders total cash consideration of $9,460,129; which such amount included $3.456,000 in working capital left in Lixoft’ s accounts in excess of the amount required under the Agreement, and
(ii) The Company held back $2,000,000 (2/3s in cash and 1/3 in escrowed shares of SIMPLUS stock) at the Closing from the initial consideration as for potential offset for representations and warrantees. These funds will be held for a period of 24 months
(iii) In addition, the Company may pay up to an additional $5,500,000 in Earn-out Payments over the 2 years following the Closing if and when such Earn-out Payments become due and payable, and subject to certain offsets as provided in the Agreement, according to the Agreement.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price is allocated to Lixoft’ s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the date of the completion of the acquisition (April 1, 2020). The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase price for Lixoft:

Assets acquired $ 4,998,662
Estimated value of technologies acquired over book value 8,030,000
Estimated value of Intangibles acquired 4,160,000
Goodwill 2,259,311
Total Purchase Consideration $ 19,447,973

3. Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the pro forma consolidated financial position and results of operations of the combined company based upon the historical financial statements of SIMPLUS and Lixoft, after giving effect to the Lixoft acquisition and adjustments described in the following footnotes, and are intended to reflect the impact of this acquisition on SIMPLUS on a pro forma basis.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet reflects the acquisition of Lixoft as if it had been consummated on February 29, 2020 and includes pro forma adjustments for preliminary valuations by SIMPLUS management of certain tangible and intangible assets as of the acquisition date of April 1, 2020. These adjustments are subject to further revision upon finalization of the fair value determinations.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 and the six months ended February 29, 2020 combines SIMPLUS’s historical results for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 and the six months ended February 29, 2020 with Lixoft historical results for the same periods on a US GAAP basis. The unaudited pro forma statement of operations gives effect to the acquisition as if it had taken place on September 1, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only.


4. Pro Forma Adjustments

Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated purchase price and to reflect amounts related to Lixoft’ s net tangible and intangible assets and liabilities at an amount equal to the preliminary estimate of their fair values. The intangible assets identified were customer lists, non-compete agreements, and the trade name valued at $2,550,000, $60,000 and $1,550,000, respectively. The trade name is capitalized on the balance sheet until it is either abandoned or written off.

There were no significant intercompany balances or transactions between SIMPLUS and Lixoft at the dates and for the period of these pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not include any adjustments for liabilities that will result from integration activities related to the Lixoft acquisition. Additional assets or liabilities may be recorded that could affect amounts in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. During the measurement period, any such adjustments to provisional amounts would increase or decrease goodwill. Adjustments that occur after the end of the measurement period will be recognized in the post-combination current period operations.

Lixoft’ s cost of acquisition were paid by the former shareholders of Lixoft, no expenses were paid by Lixoft. Company paid expenses have been recorded as a pro forma adjustment to reduce general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations for the six months ended February 29, 2020. $1,102,000 of transaction costs were incurred in the period between April 1, 2020 and May 31, 2020, all of which were SIMPLUS expenses for due diligence, legal and investment banking fees. The combined company expects to incur approximately $1,416,000 in direct transaction costs in connection with the acquisition.

The combined company may incur additional one-time charges to operations that SIMPLUS cannot reasonably estimate, in the quarter in which the acquisition is completed or the following quarters, to reflect costs associated with integrating the two businesses. In addition, the combined company may incur additional charges relating to the transaction in subsequent periods, which could have a material impact on the combined company’s financial position or results of operations.
