UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Introduction
On February 9, 2023, Tingo Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Tingo Group”, the “Company” or the “Buyer”) and MICT Fintech Ltd., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“MICT Fintech”) purchased from Dozy Mmobuosi (the “Seller”) 100% of the ordinary shares of Tingo Foods PLC (“Tingo Foods”) (the “Acquisition”). Mr. Mmobuosi is the majority shareholder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Tingo, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Tingo, Inc. currently owns (i) 25,783,675 shares of Tingo Group common stock equal to approximately 19.9% of the total issued and outstanding Tingo Group common stock; (ii) 2,604.28 shares of Tingo Group Series A Preferred Stock convertible upon certain conditions into 26,042,808 shares of Tingo Group common stock equal to approximately 20.1% of the total issued and outstanding Tingo Group common stock; and (iii) 33,687.21 shares of Tingo Group Series B Preferred Stock convertible upon certain conditions into 336,872,138 shares of Tingo Group common stock equal to approximately 35% of the total issued and outstanding Tingo Group common stock.
As consideration for the Acquisition, Tingo Group agreed to pay Mr. Mmobuosi, a purchase price equal to the cost value of Tingo Foods’ stock, which will be satisfied by the issuance of a secured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) in the amount of US$204,000,000 and certain undertakings and obligations of the Tingo Group. The Promissory Note is for a term of two years with an interest rate of 5%. MICT Fintech agreed to certain covenants with respect to its ability to incur additional debt or create additional liens. The Acquisition will not result in any new issuance of Tingo Group common stock, nor of any instruments convertible into shares of Tingo Group.
Additionally, Tingo Foods has agreed to enter into a joint venture with Mr. Mmobuosi to construct a state-of-the-art $1.6 billion food processing facility in the Delta State of Nigeria, which is expected to multiply the size of the processing capacity and revenues of Tingo Foods, following its expected completion by the end of the first half of 2024. Mr Mmobuosi, as the owner of the land on which the food processing facility is to be located, has committed to finance the construction of the property shells, whereas Tingo Foods has agreed to undertake the fit out and the installation of the mechanized equipment for the specialized operations of the food processing facility. Mr. Mmobuosi has committed to provide Tingo Foods with a long-term lease with respect to the land and property and at the same time Tingo Foods has committed to operate the food processing facility.

The Business Combination is reflected as if it had occurred on January 1, 2022 with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and on December 31, 2022 with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.
Accounting for the Merger
The financial statements of Tingo Group and Tingo Foods were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Notwithstanding the legal form of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the business combination will be accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”)
In accordance with ASC 805, the Company has determined that (a) both Tingo Group and Tingo Foods represent businesses; (b) Tingo Group is the accounting acquirer, meaning the transaction is a forward acquisition; (c) Tingo Foods is subject to acquisition accounting, with a write-up of its net assets to fair value; and (d) the difference between the fair value of the purchase consideration and the fair value of Tingo Foods’ net assets represents goodwill.
Tingo Group has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:
| ● | Tingo Group’s existing shareholders will retain their full equity interests in the combined entity, because the Seller will not receive any additional equity interests. |
| ● | Tingo Group will retain their full Board of Director representation; and |
| ● | Tingo Group’s senior management team, consisting of Darren Mercer, CEO and Kevin Chen, CFO, will be the senior management of the combined entity following the consummation of the Business Combination. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of both Tingo Group and Tingo Foods.
The unaudited pro forma adjustments give effect to events that are directly attributable to the proposed transaction and are based on available data and certain assumptions that management believes are factually supportable.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only, in order to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the proposed transaction. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information described above has been derived from the historical audited financial statements of Tingo Group and Tingo Foods. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on Tingo Group’s accounting policies. Further review may identify additional differences between the accounting policies of Tingo Group and Tingo Foods. The unaudited pro forma adjustments and the pro forma condensed combined financial information do not reflect the impact of synergies or post-transaction management actions and are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that may have occurred had the transactions taken place on the dates noted, or of Tingo Group’s future financial position or operating results.
