Exhibit 99.1
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On May 4, 2025, Beach Acquisition Co Parent, LLC (Parent), an entity formed and controlled by 3G Fund VI, L.P. (Fund VI), entered into the Merger Agreement with Skechers U.S.A., Inc. (Skechers) and Beach Acquisition Merger Sub, Inc. (Merger Sub), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Skechers (the Merger), with Skechers surviving as a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Parent (the Transaction). At the effective time of the Merger (Effective Time), each share of Skechers common stock (Skechers Common Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive merger consideration consisting of either (i) $63.00 per share in cash (the Cash Election Consideration) or (ii) $57.00 per share in cash and one common limited liability company unit of Parent (Common Unit) (the Mixed Election Consideration or Mixed Election). The Mixed Election Consideration is subject to a cap, with a maximum of 20% of the outstanding shares of Skechers common stock eligible to receive this form of consideration (the Cap); if holders of shares representing more than 20% of the outstanding Skechers stock elect the Mixed Election Consideration, these elections will be subject to proration. Additionally, at the Effective Time, each restricted stock award for which vesting is tied in full or in part to the achievement of performance goals or metrics (Skechers PSA) will be cancelled and replaced with a right to receive one Class P Unit for each share of Skechers Common Stock subject to such Skechers PSA.
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement on May 4, 2025, Skechers entered into a support agreement (the Support Agreement) with the Greenberg Family Trust, the Skechers Voting Trust, Robert Greenberg and certain members of the Greenberg family (collectively, the Greenberg Stockholders) pursuant to which, among other things, (i) certain Greenberg Stockholders have agreed to elect to receive the Mixed Election Consideration in the Transaction pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and (ii) each Greenberg Shareholder has agreed to waive any appraisal rights to which it may be entitled pursuant to the applicable law in connection with the Transaction, including the Merger.
Parent was formed on April 28, 2025, solely for the purpose of effecting the Transaction, including the issuance of Common Units for the Mixed Election Consideration. Parent has not conducted any business operations other than such operations that are incidental to its formation and in connection with the Transaction. As of June 3, 2025, Parent does not have any assets or liabilities other than as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including contractual commitments it has made in connection therewith. The equity interests in Parent issued in connection with the Merger will be governed by the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Parent, which includes certain rights and restrictions, including transfer limitations, drag-along and tag-along provisions, and a post-closing liquidity mechanism. Accordingly, no historical financial statement operations of Parent have been included in this unaudited pro forma condensed financial data. As a result of the Merger, Skechers, as the surviving corporation, will become a subsidiary of Parent.
In order to fund the Transaction and other related costs, (i) Fund VI has agreed to provide equity financing to Parent, after giving effect to any cash or other sources of liquidity available to Parent and Merger Sub, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a signed equity commitment letter dated May 4, 2025 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Equity Commitment Letter) and (ii) certain financial institutions, including JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., in a debt commitment letter dated as of May 23, 2025 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Debt Commitment Letter) have agreed to provide Parent with debt financing consisting of an approximately $2.1 billion first lien term loan facility, an approximately $1.6 billion first lien revolving facility, an approximately $1.9 billion senior secured bridge facility and an approximately $2.5 billion junior debt facility (this clause (ii), the Debt Financing). Parent intends to seek alternative financing options as allowed for in the Debt Commitment Letter. Parent currently expects to borrow approximately $165.0 million less first lien debt than the committed amount of first lien term loans and bridge loans. The obligations of the Debt Financing Sources to provide the Debt Financing under the Debt Commitment Letter are subject to a number of customary conditions.
Parent and Skechers cannot predict how many of the Skechers stockholders holding legacy shares will exercise the Mixed Election. Therefore, in view of the uncertain nature of any prediction as to the number of shares of Skechers Common Stock that will be subject to valid and effective Mixed Elections, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the assumption that approximately 17% of Skechers stockholders will elect the Mixed Election. The approximately 17% represents the mid-point between an estimated minimum of approximately 14% (represents the Greenberg Stockholders who have elected or agreed to elect to receive the Mixed Election Consideration) and the Cap of 20% included in the Merger Agreement. See Note 2, for the sensitivity on the Mixed Election and the related impacts to the estimated total merger consideration.
Parent intends to fund the cash portion of the merger consideration and repayment of a portion of Skechers existing debt with proceeds from new debt and equity financing. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is prepared assuming Parent or a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent will issue $3.9 billion comprised of first lien term loans and other first lien debt, $2.5 billion of junior debt, and new common equity proceeds of approximately $3.6 billion to fund the Transaction. This is Parent managements best estimate based on currently available information and existing debt and equity commitment letters.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on or derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Skechers. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, gives effect to the Merger as if those transactions had been completed on March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the year ended December 31, 2024, and the twelve months ended March 31, 2025, give effect to the Merger as if it had been completed on January 1, 2024, the beginning of the earliest period presented. The pro forma financial information combines the historical financial statements of Skechers with Parent; however, Parent was formed subsequent to March 31, 2025 (latest period presented) and does not have any operations as the entity was formed solely to effect the Transaction and is thus included herein for pro forma purposes to reflect the acquisition and debt and equity financing pro forma adjustments.
The historical financial statements of Parent and Skechers have been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give effect to pro forma events that are transaction accounting adjustments necessary to account for the Transaction in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that Parents management believes are reasonable.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from and should be read in conjunction with:
| The accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information; |
| The audited consolidated financial statements of Skechers as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the related notes; |
| The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Skechers as of March 31, 2025 and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, and the related notes; and |
| The audited consolidated financial statements of Parent as of June 3, 2025 and April 24, 2025 included in Parents information statement/prospectus filed with the SEC on June 10, 2025. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any anticipated synergies or dis-synergies, operating efficiencies, or cost savings that may result from the Merger or any acquisition and integration costs that may be incurred.
The statements and related notes are being provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the combined companys actual results of operations or financial position would have been had the Merger been completed on the dates indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of the combined companys future results of operations or financial position for any future period. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected due to various factors and risks.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes have been prepared to give the effect to the following:
| Application of the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805), where certain assets and liabilities of Skechers will be recorded by Parent at their respective fair values at the date of completion of the Merger; |
| Adjustments to reflect the debt and equity financing transactions; |
| Adjustments to reflect transaction costs in connection with the Merger; and |
| Adjustments to reflect the related tax effects for the preliminary pro forma adjustments. |
The pro forma adjustments and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. Parent estimated the fair value of Skechers assets and liabilities based on a preliminary valuation benchmark analysis, due diligence information, information presented in Skechers SEC filings and other publicly available information. Until the Transaction is completed, both companies are limited in their ability to share certain information.
Upon completing the Transaction, a final determination of the fair value of Skechers acquired assets and assumed liabilities will be performed. Any changes in the fair values of the net assets or total purchase consideration as compared with the information shown in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements may change the amount of the total purchase consideration allocated to goodwill and other assets and liabilities and may impact the combined company statements of earnings. The final purchase consideration allocation may be materially different than the preliminary purchase consideration allocation presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Note 1 Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes are not prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes are prepared to give effect to the Transaction and the related debt and equity financing. Parent was formed on April 28, 2025 as a newly created entity established solely for the purpose of facilitating the Transaction. As Parent did not conduct any operating activities prior to the Transaction and does not have any historical financial information, the historical financial statements of Skechers have been combined with the shell financial statements of Parent as the basis for the pro forma financial presentation to reflect the Transaction and related debt and equity financing. Skechers historical and Parent shell financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and presented in U.S. dollars.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, as of March 31, 2025, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the year ended December 31, 2024, and the twelve months ended March 31, 2025 presented herein, are based on the historical financial statements of Skechers and Parent shell financial statements. Skechers fiscal year ended on December 31, 2024.
| The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, is presented as if Parents acquisition of Skechers had occurred on March 31, 2025. |
| The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the year ended December 31, 2024, and the twelve months ended March 31, 2025 has been prepared as if the Merger had occurred on January 1, 2024. |
As discussed above, Parent was a newly created entity and did not conduct any operating activities prior to the Transaction. As Parent does not have any operating activities or historical financial information, there are no adjustments required to conform Skechers accounting policies to Parents accounting policies. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented assumes there are no differences in accounting policies and no reclassification adjustments have been made.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with Parent as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and based on the historical financial statements of Parent and Skechers. ASC 805 requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, the estimated merger consideration has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Skechers based upon Parent managements preliminary estimate of their fair values as of March 31, 2025. Parent has not completed the valuation analysis and calculations in sufficient detail necessary to arrive at the required estimates of the fair value of Skechers assets to be acquired or liabilities assumed. For the preliminary estimate of the fair value of certain intangible assets, Parent performed a benchmarking analysis based on observed tangible and intangible values in similar acquisitions with publicly available data and assessed the ranges of potential intangible value based on these comparable transactions. Apart from intangible assets, Skechers assets and liabilities are presented at their respective historical carrying amounts and should be treated as preliminary values. Any differences between the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as goodwill. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation and related adjustments reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are preliminary and subject to revision based on a final determination of fair value as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed.
The pro forma adjustments represent managements best estimates and are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that Parent believes are reasonable under the circumstances.
Note 2 Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
(a) Estimated Merger Consideration

The total estimated merger consideration is as follows:
Estimated Merger Consideration |
Amount | |||
Estimated cash consideration (i) |
$ | 9,500,421 | ||
Estimated rollover equity (ii) |
741,965 | |||
Estimated repayment of Skechers debt (iii) |
130,001 | |||
|
|
|||
Estimated merger consideration (iv) |
$ | 10,372,387 | ||
|
|
(i) | Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, for each share of Skechers Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time, shareholders have the right to receive either (a) $63.00 cash or (b) $57.00 cash and one Common Unit (the Mixed Election Consideration or Mixed Election), subject to proration and the overall 20% Cap on the Mixed Election Consideration. In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, RSUs and RSAs of Skechers whether vested or unvested will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive cash consideration. |
For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the cash consideration was determined based on (a) the Skechers Common Stock outstanding as of May 2, 2025 (as outlined in the Merger Agreement) using an assumption that the Mixed Election has been made by approximately 17% of Skechers stockholders and (b) Skechers RSUs and RSAs outstanding as of May 2, 2025 were assumed to be accelerated and converted into the right to receive cash consideration. Refer to the sensitivity on the Mixed Election in Note 2(b) below.
(ii) | Reflects the estimated rollover equity assuming approximately 17% of Skechers stockholders elect the Mixed Election and receive a Common Unit in addition to the cash consideration per share, which is reflected in the estimated cash consideration. |
(iii) | Based on the amounts of Skechers debt reflected as outstanding on the Skechers balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, a total of $130.0 million is expected to be repaid. The amount of Skechers debt actually repaid on the closing date of the Merger (the Closing) may differ from the amount expected to be repaid as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. |
(iv) | Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Skechers PSAs will be cancelled and replaced with replacement awards subject to the same service-vesting conditions and all other terms as applicable, except for the performance-based vesting condition. At the time of the preparation of this unaudited pro forma financial information, the preliminary fair value of the replacement awards has not been determined and as such the fair value of the vested portion of the replacement award has not been included in the estimated merger consideration. |
(b) | Sensitivity on Mixed Election |
The total estimated cash consideration paid to stockholders and estimated rollover equity will vary depending on the number of stockholders that elect the Mixed Election. This election will impact the cash consideration and rollover equity as the number of shares is used to calculate the fair value of the preliminary merger consideration based on the election made by each Skechers stockholder. The assumption reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is that 83% of all stockholders will not make the Mixed Election and Parent will purchase those shares for consideration equal to $63.00 per share. A change in the Mixed Election percentage results in a change in Parents expected equity financing, which is currently estimated at $3.6 billion based on the assumption in the unaudited pro forma condensed combination financial information.
The following table provides a sensitivity analysis to certain alternative scenarios (in thousands):
Pro Forma Combined as of March 31, 2025 |

(i) | The approximately 14% represents an estimated minimum based on the Greenberg Stockholder election included in the Support Agreement. |
(ii) | Assumes 20% of stockholders will exercise the Mixed Election which is the Cap per the Merger Agreement. |

(c) | Preliminary Estimated Merger Consideration Allocation |
The estimated merger consideration, as shown in the table above, is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Skechers based on their preliminary estimated fair values. As mentioned above in Note 1, Parent has not completed the valuation analysis and calculations in sufficient detail necessary to arrive at the required estimates of the fair value of the Skechers assets to be acquired or liabilities assumed. For the preliminary estimate of the fair value of certain intangible assets, Parent performed a benchmarking analysis based on observed tangible and intangible values in similar acquisitions with publicly available data and assessed the ranges of potential intangible value based on these comparable transactions. Apart from intangible assets, Skechers assets and liabilities are presented at their respective historical carrying amounts and should be treated as preliminary values. Any differences between the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation and related adjustments reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are preliminary and subject to revision based on a final determination of fair value as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed.
The following table provides a summary of the preliminary estimated merger consideration allocation by major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on Parent managements preliminary estimate of their respective fair values:

The preliminary estimated purchase consideration allocation above reflects a preliminary estimated goodwill of $2.5 billion. Goodwill represents the excess of the estimated merger consideration over the preliminary estimated fair values of recorded tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The actual amount of goodwill to be recorded in connection with the merger is subject to change once the valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been completed.
Preliminary identifiable intangible assets in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information consist of the following:
Description (In thousands) |

|
|
|||||||
Total |
$ | 4,500,000 | ||||||
|
|
Parent determined a preliminary fair value estimate of intangible assets related to brand and other definite-lived intangible assets including, customer relationships and customer-related assets and franchise agreements / reacquired rights.
The estimated fair values and useful lives of identifiable intangible assets are preliminary and have been performed based on publicly available benchmarking information, as there are limitations on the type of information that can be exchanged between Parent and Skechers prior to the Closing. The amount that will ultimately be allocated to identifiable intangible assets and the related amount of amortization, may differ materially from this preliminary allocation. Any change in the valuation of intangible assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the balance of goodwill. A hypothetical 10.0% change in the valuation of the definite-lived intangible assets would result in a corresponding increase or decrease in the amortization expense of approximately $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025, assuming weighted average useful life of seven years.

(e) | Represents the repayment of $130.0 million of Skechers short-term borrowings under Skechers existing corporate revolving credit facility and $23.0 thousand of current installments on long-term borrowings at Transaction close. |
(f) | Reflects a deferred income tax liability (see Note 2) resulting from the preliminary pro forma fair value adjustment to intangible assets based on the estimated blended statutory tax rate of approximately 24.9%. Because the tax rates used for the pro forma financial information are estimated, the blended rate will likely vary from the actual effective rate in periods subsequent to the completion of the Merger. This estimate of the deferred income tax liability (see Note 2) is preliminary and is subject to change based upon Parents final determination of the fair values of identifiable intangible assets acquired by jurisdiction. |
(g) | Represents the issuance of Common Units as rollover equity included in the total estimated merger consideration (see Note 2) and the recognition of estimated transaction costs of $71.5 million. Transaction costs consist of legal, advisory and consulting costs. |
(h) | Represents the elimination of Skechers historical equity balances in conjunction with the Transaction. |
Financing Adjustments:

(216,602 | ) | ||
|
|
|||
Pro forma net adjustment to debt |
$ | 6,148,398 | ||
|
|
The pro forma adjustment reflects Parent managements best estimate of the debt financing based on information currently available and the Debt Commitment Letter. The total mix of debt issued will vary depending on the final financing outcomes as contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter. Although the mix of debt will not have pervasive impact on the overall transaction or estimated preliminary purchase price, the assumptions around this election will have an impact on cash and cash equivalents, debt, and interest expense. See Note 4(d) for sensitivity related to interest expense.
(l) | Represents the $3.6 billion expected to be raised with the issuance of Common Units in conjunction with the equity financing. |
Note 4 Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Earnings
Acquisition Accounting Adjustments:
(a) | Reflects the adjustments to general and administrative expense (G&A), including the removal of historical Skechers amortization expense, recognizing expense for amortization of the estimated fair value of definite-lived intangibles acquired, and recognizing expense for estimated transaction costs. Parent is still in the process of evaluating the fair value of the intangible assets. Any resulting change in the fair value would have a direct impact on amortization expense. The amortization of intangible assets is calculated on a straight-line basis. The amortization is based on the periods over which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are expected to be realized, which are subject to adjustment as additional information becomes available. |

Because the tax rates used for the pro forma condensed combined financial information are estimated, the blended rate will likely vary from the actual effective rate in periods subsequent to completion of the Merger. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. |

The pro forma net adjustment for interest expense represents Parents best estimate of the interest rates and terms it believes it can obtain in the financing transactions based on Parents evaluation of current market conditions. The weighted average blended rate used for the pro forma net interest adjustment is 8.6% which assumes the junior debt will be paid-in-kind. A sensitivity analysis on interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the year ended December 31, 2024, and the twelve months ended March 31, 2025, has been performed to assess the effect of a 0.125% change of the hypothetical interest on the financing transactions related to the first lien term loan and other first lien debt and the junior debt.
A hypothetical increase or decrease to the annual interest rate related to the first lien term loans and other first lien debt would change annual interest expense by approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025.
A hypothetical increase or decrease to the annual interest rate related to the junior debt would change annual interest expense by approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, $3.3 million for the year-ended December 31, 2024, and $3.5 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025.
(e) | To record the income tax impact of the pro forma adjustments utilizing statutory income tax rates in effect of approximately 24.9% for each period including for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the year ended December 31, 2024, and the twelve months ended March 31, 2025. Because the tax rates used for the pro forma financial information are estimated, the blended rate will likely vary from the actual effective rate in periods subsequent to completion of the Merger. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. |

(i) | Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Skechers PSAs will be cancelled and replaced with replacement awards subject to the same service-vesting conditions and all other terms as applicable, except for the performance-based vesting condition. Such replacement awards are Class P Units. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma financial information, there is no assumed issuance of Class P Units and thus no impact to the earnings per unit calculation. Further, the Common Units issued for rollover equity and equity financing have the same rights and privileges and are treated as such in the calculation of earnings per unit. |
