Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction
 
On February 10, 2025, Columbus McKinnon Corporation (“the Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity of Kito Crosby Limited (“Kito Crosby” or the “Target”) (such acquisition being the “Transaction” or “Acquisition”), with the Target continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company following closing. The Transaction is expected to close later in calendar year 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
 
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Acquisition and the financing arrangements related thereto (see “Description of the Financing” below for explanation of the financing arrangements) as if those transactions had been completed on March 31, 2025 and combines the historical audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of March 31, 2025 with the Target’s historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Acquisition and the financing arrangements related thereto as if those transactions had occurred on April 1, 2024, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025 combines the historical audited consolidated statement of operations of the Company for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 and the Target’s historical unaudited consolidated combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025. Refer to Note 1 - Basis of Presentation for more information regarding the differing fiscal year ends.
 
The historical audited financial statements of the Company and unaudited financial statements of the Target 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 which are necessary to account for the Acquisition and the financing arrangements related thereto, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Certain reclassifications have also been made to conform the historical financial statement presentation of Kito Crosby to that of the Company. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that our management believes are reasonable. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from the realization of future cost savings due to operating efficiencies, or any other business changes or synergies that may result from the Acquisition.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with:

Description of the Transaction
 
On February 10, 2025, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity of Kito Crosby from its existing equity holders for aggregate cash consideration of $2.7 billion on a cash-free, debt-free basis, subject to customary adjustments and transaction-related payments. The Transaction is expected to close later in calendar year 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
 
The Acquisition will be funded through a combination of a proceeds from new debt facilities, proceeds from the issuance of Series A Cumulative Convertible Participating Preferred Shares, par value $1.00 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), and available cash on hand. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company is also expected to repay all outstanding indebtedness of Kito Crosby, as set forth in the applicable payout letters, and Kito Crosby will settle all outstanding in-the-money employee stock options. No Kito Crosby equity awards are expected to convert into Company equity awards, shares of the Company’s common stock or assumed as part of the post-close compensation program.
 
Description of the Financing
 
The Company expects to enter into a credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a debt commitment letter dated February 10, 2025. The credit agreement is expected to provide for senior secured financing consisting of (i) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.325 billion (the “Term Loan Facility”), (ii) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), and (iii) a bridge loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.225 billion (the “Bridge Facility”). The Term Loan Facility is expected to be fully drawn at Transaction closing and will mature on the date that is seven years after the Transaction closing date. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on the date that is five years from the Transaction closing date and is not expected to be drawn at Transaction closing. The Company does not intend to draw on the Bridge Facility, as it intends to incur permanent financing in the form of high-yield bonds in the aggregate principal amount of $1.225 billion as described below.
 
To support the financing of the Acquisition, the Company expects to issue senior secured notes (the “High-Yield Notes”). For the purposes herein, the Company has assumed that such High Yield Notes would be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $1.225 billion, bear interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum and mature on the date that is seven years after the Transaction closing date. Such High Yield Notes are expected to be issued prior to, or concurrently with, the closing of the Acquisition. Proceeds from the High-Yield Notes are expected to fund a portion of the consideration transferred and related transaction costs for the Acquisition and will also be used to refinance the Company’s existing long-term debt.


In connection with the Acquisition, the Company also entered into an investment agreement with, among other parties, CD&R XII Keystone Holdings, L.P. (together with its affiliated funds, the “CD&R Investors”), pursuant to which the CD&R Investors will purchase 800,000 Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $800.0 million. The Preferred Shares accrue dividends at a rate of 7.00% per annum, compounded quarterly, payable in cash or in-kind, and are convertible into common shares of the Company at an initial conversion price of $37.68 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

The Term Loan Facility, Revolving Credit Facility and High Yield Notes will be guaranteed by the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to customary exceptions. The Revolving Credit Facility is expected to be available for general corporate purposes.
 
Accounting for the Acquisition
 
The Acquisition is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with the Company as the accounting acquirer in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting, the aggregate Acquisition consideration will be allocated to Kito Crosby’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of completion of the Acquisition. The process of valuing the net assets of Kito Crosby immediately prior to the Acquisition, as well as evaluating accounting policies for conformity, is preliminary. Any differences between the estimated fair value of the consideration transferred and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as goodwill. Accordingly, the aggregate Acquisition consideration allocation and related adjustments reflected in this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are preliminary and subject to revision based on a final determination of fair value. Refer to Note 1 - Basis of Presentation for more information.
 
Generally, unless indicated otherwise, financial data included in the unaudited condensed combined financial information is presented in thousands of U.S. Dollars and has been prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP and the Company’s accounting policies.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have been realized if the Acquisition and the financing transactions related thereto had been completed on the dates set forth above, nor is it indicative of the future results or financial position of the combined company. The pro forma adjustments are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final Acquisition accounting may arise and these differences could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X
 
The Company’s audited historical financial statements and Target’s unaudited historical financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and presented in U.S. dollars. As discussed in Note 2 - Presentation of Kito Crosby – Reclassification Adjustments, certain reclassifications were made to align the Company and Kito Crosby’s financial statement presentation. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating Kito Crosby’s accounting policies and as a result of that review, additional differences could be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies. With the information currently available, the Company has determined that no significant adjustments are necessary to conform Target’s financial statements to the accounting policies used by the Company.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, with Company as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, and based on the historical financial statements of the Company and Kito Crosby. Under ASC Topic 805, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized and measured at their assumed Acquisition date fair value, while transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The excess of Acquisition consideration over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill.
 
The allocation of aggregate purchase consideration depends upon certain estimates and assumptions, all of which are preliminary. The Company intends to finalize valuations upon completion of the Acquisition and will finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but in no event later than one year following the Transaction close. The assets and liabilities of Kito Crosby have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable based on currently available information. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final purchase accounting will occur, and the final purchase accounting could be materially different from the preliminary estimates used to prepare the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and could have a material impact on the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 is presented as if the Acquisition had occurred on March 31, 2025 and combines the historical audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of March 31, 2025 with the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Kito Crosby as of March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025 has been prepared as if the Acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2024 and combines the Company’s historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 with Kito Crosby’s historical unaudited consolidated combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025.
 
The Company fiscal year ends on March 31st, while Kito Crosby’s fiscal year ends on December 31st. As the Company’s fiscal year end differs by one quarter from Kito Crosby’s fiscal year end, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations presented herein has been prepared using the differing fiscal periods as described below. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025 presented herein reflects a combination of the Company’s results of operations for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 and Kito Crosby’s results of operations from April 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025, which were calculated using its fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, plus the three months ended March 31, 2025, less the three months ended March 31, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 presented herein reflects a combination of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2025 and Kito Crosby’s financial position as of March 31, 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 Acquisition or any acquisition and integration costs that may be incurred. The pro forma adjustments represent management’s best estimates and are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The Company is not aware of any material transactions between the Company and Target during the period presented. Accordingly, adjustments to eliminate transactions between the Company and Target have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
 
Note 2 – Presentation of Kito Crosby – Reclassification Adjustments

During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, management performed a preliminary analysis of Kito Crosby’s financial information to identify differences in accounting policies as compared to those of the Company and differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the presentation of the Company. With the information currently available, the Company has determined that no significant adjustments are necessary to conform Kito Crosby’s financial statements to the accounting policies used by the Company. However, certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform Kito Crosby’s historical unaudited financial statement presentation to the Company’s audited financial statement presentation.

Note 3 – Preliminary purchase price allocation
 
Estimated Aggregate Acquisition Consideration
 
The base purchase price for the Acquisition of $2.7 billion is on a cash-free, debt-free basis, subject to customary closing adjustments and transaction-related payments. These include legal, accounting, and advisory fees incurred by Kito Crosby and paid by the Company at closing.

Purchase price adjustments estimate the contractual adjustments for the Acquisition based on information available (e.g., Kito Crosby tax attributes paid and pension obligation credits received) and the portion of cash transferred related to the acceleration of unvested employee stock options paid at Transaction closing.
 
Estimated Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
 
The table below represents an estimated preliminary purchase price allocation based on estimates, assumptions, valuations, and other analyses based on Kito Crosby’s balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. The total preliminary estimated purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Kito Crosby based on their estimated fair values as if the Acquisition had occurred on March 31, 2025, which is the assumed Acquisition date for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. Other than the items specifically noted below, Kito Crosby’s assets and liabilities are presented at their respective carrying amounts and should be treated as preliminary values. Based on the information available at the time of preparation of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the Company believes that these carrying values approximate fair values. The Company has not completed the final allocation of the purchase price for the Acquisition. Therefore, the acquired assets and liabilities are reflected at their preliminary estimated fair values with the excess consideration recorded as goodwill. The final valuation could result in a material difference from the amounts shown.

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price as of the Acquisition occurred on March 31, 2025.
