On March 7, 2008, Varsity Group Inc. (the "Company") filed a
Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 with respect to the
Company's previously announced transaction with Follett Corporation and the
commencement of the tender offer for the Company's common stock pursuant to the
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 22, 2008, by and among VGI Holdings
Corp., VGI Acquisition Corp. ("Purchaser") and the Company.
The Company provided to Purchaser and included in Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9
certain preliminary, internal, unaudited draft financial information as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2007. This information is attached as Exhibit
99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
In connection with the due diligence review of the Company by Parent, we provided to Parent certain preliminary, internal, unaudited draft financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007, including:
preliminary unaudited consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2007 (which
showed as of December 31, 2007: cash of $0, total current assets of $11.4
million, total assets of $15.0 million, total current liabilities of $7.8
million and total liabilities of $8.1 million);
preliminary unaudited statements of income of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (which showed for the
year ended December 31, 2007: net sales of $44.4 million, gross margin of $13.4
million, total operating expenses of $21.1 million, operating loss of $7.6
million and net loss of $7.8 million); and;
preliminary unaudited statements of cash flows of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (which
showed for the year ended December 31, 2007: cash used in operating activities
of $2.1 million, proceeds from investing activities of $3.6 million and cash
used in financing activities of $1.9 million, for a net decrease in cash of $0.4
million).
The preliminary, internal unaudited financial statements from which the above
data were derived were not prepared with a view towards public disclosure or
compliance with the published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The
summary of these preliminary, internal, unaudited financial statements is not
being included in this Statement to influence your decision whether to tender
your shares in the Offer, but solely because these preliminary, internal,
unaudited financial statements were made available by the Company to Parent. Our
independent auditors did not review, audit or otherwise conduct any procedures
on this data or the underlying financial statements. There can be no assurance
that this information will be consistent with final audited information, which
may vary materially from the information above.
In addition to the general disclaimers and qualifications specified above,
stockholders are specifically cautioned that the preliminary, internal,
unaudited financial statement data summarized above assumes that we are a going
concern for financial statement purposes. Accordingly, the data carries all of
our assets, including those related to our former Campus Outfitters business, at
the historical cost basis for financial reporting purposes. Historical cost is,
with respect to the Campus Outfitters assets, materially in excess of the amount
received by us for those assets in the SchoolOne sale described under
"Disposition of Assets".
