Independence Holding Company
Introduction to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
On December 20, 2021, Independence Holding Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Madison Investors Corp. ("MIC") and AMIC Holdings, Inc. ("AMIC"), completed the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, Independence American Holdings Corp. ("IAHC"), which owns all of the capital stock of Independence American Insurance Company ("Independence American"), the Company's primary specialty health and pet insurance underwriter, and other pet assets, to a subsidiary of Independence Pet Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Iguana Capital, Inc.) ("Independence Pet") (the "IAHC Sale"). The Company received 70% of the consideration in cash, or $197.7 million (inclusive of adjustments for estimated excess statutory capital and surplus), and 30% of the consideration in shares of capital stock of Independence Pet valued at approximately $84.7 million. The IAHC Sale transaction included Independence American's pet business and excluded all other business lines. Because the pet business was a major product line for the Company, and the Company will no longer actively engage in the sales and marketing of pet insurance, the sale transaction represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The IAHC Sale qualified for reporting as discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2021 as a result of the Board of Directors' commitment to a plan for the disposal of a controlling interest in its pet business in May 2021.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of Independence Holding Company (collectively referred to as the "Company", or "IHC", or are implicit in the terms "we", "us" and "our"), adjusted to give effect to the sale of its subsidiary IAHC, its pet assets and Independence American to Independence Pet. These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Because the operations of IAHC, its pet assets and Independence American was not reflected as discontinued operations in the Company's historical financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, we have also provided the unaudited pro forma results of operations for the 2019 fiscal year to show its effect as discontinued operations in that year.
Unaudited pro forma financial information for IHC has been provided below to show what the significant effects on the historical financial information might have been had the IAHC Sale occurred at an earlier date. The unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements however are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or related effects on financial position that would have been attained had the IAHC Sale actually occurred earlier. They also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the unaudited pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
The pro forma adjustments related to the IAHC Sale are based on available information and assumptions that management believes are: (1) directly attributable to the sale of IAHC, its pet assets and Independence American; (2) factually supportable; and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income, expected to have continuing impact on the consolidated operating results. The most significant assumptions are set forth under the unaudited Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Reclassifications for the effects of other operations that were discontinued in 2021 but not yet reflected in historical financial statements are presented separately in the following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the 2021 financial statement presentation. See Note 2 in the unaudited Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Independence Holding Company
Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1:Basis of Presentation
The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, MIC and AMIC, completed the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, IAHC, which owns all of the capital stock of Independence American, the Company's primary specialty health and pet insurance underwriter, and other pet assets, to a subsidiary of Independence Pet. The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been prepared as if the IAHC Sale had been consummated on September 30, 2021. The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 have been prepared as if the IAHC Sale occurred as of the beginning of each respective period; the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the 2019 fiscal year has been prepared to present the operations of IAHC, including its pet assets and Independence American, as discontinued operations as of the beginning of the period.
The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are based upon available information and certain assumptions that management believes are: (1) directly attributable to the IAHC Sale; (2) factually supportable; and (3) with respect to the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, expected to have continuing impact on the consolidated operating results. The estimated net gain resulting from the consummation of the IAHC Sale is included as an adjustment to retained earnings on the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2021 and is not reflected as an adjustment in the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in any period presented. In addition, the Company did not include a pro forma adjustment for investment income that could have been potentially earned on the net proceeds from the sale transaction in such statements. However, the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income do reflect pro forma adjustments for estimated federal and state income tax provisions, which may be subject to further adjustment based on the actual carrying value of net assets sold at the date of closing, among other considerations.
The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not represent what the Company's financial position would have been assuming the consummation of the IAHC Sale had occurred on September 30, 2021 or what the Company's consolidated statements of income would have been assuming the consummation of the IAHC Sale had occurred prior to January 1, 2019, nor do they project the Company's financial position or results of operations at any future date or for any future period. These unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Note 2:Other Discontinued Operations
During the second and third quarters of 2021, IHC's Board of Directors committed to various plans for the disposal of several other business operations. Each plan represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results and as such, they each qualified for reporting as discontinued operations in 2021. The assets, liabilities, and related income and expenses associated with each disposal group are presented as discontinued operations in the historical column of the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2021 and for the nine months then ended.

Refer to Note 5 below for certain pro forma adjustments to reflect the aggregate impact of these other discontinued operations on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 because they were not yet reflected in the Company's historical financial statements for those periods.
Note 3:Sale of IAHC, Pet Assets and Independence American
The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, MIC and AMIC, completed the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, IAHC, which owns all of the capital stock of Independence American, the Company's primary specialty health and pet insurance underwriter, and other pet assets, to a subsidiary of Independence Pet. The Company received 70% of the consideration in cash, or $197.7 million (inclusive of adjustments for estimated excess statutory capital and surplus), and 30% of the consideration in shares of capital stock of Independence Pet valued at approximately $84.7 million. Pursuant to the terms of the underlying stock purchase agreement, the IAHC Sale transaction included the sale of Independence American's pet business and excluded all other business lines. The excluded business, consisting of Independence American's specialty health and other group business, was reinsured by Madison National Life Insurance Company ("Madison National Life"), a wholly owned subsidiary of IHC, immediately prior to the sale.
The financial statement impacts of the excluded lines of business are presented as discontinued operations, or as pro forma adjustments in other discontinued operations, in connection with the pending sales of the Company's subsidiaries, Madison National Life and Standard Security Life Insurance Company of New York (see Note 2).
Note 4:Funds Held in Escrow
On June 30, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its majority interest in PetPartners, Inc. ("PetPartners") to Independence Pet and, as a result, received cash proceeds of $78.3 million and an equity investment in Independence Pet. The cash proceeds were deposited into an escrow account owned by a subsidiary of AMIC and treated as a security deposit. Upon the closing of the IAHC Sale transaction, the funds were released from the escrow account to the Company.
Note 5:Pro Forma Adjustments
a)Reflects proceeds received upon the IAHC Sale, including adjustments for the estimated excess statutory and capital of Independence American over certain target amounts.
b)The pro forma adjustment reflects the release of the PetPartners sale proceeds held in an escrow account to cash. See Note 4.
c)Reflects the elimination of assets and liabilities previously accounted for as discontinued operations and corresponding income and expenses of IAHC, its pet assets and Independence American.
d)Includes goodwill allocated to the IAHC Sale transaction.
e)Reflects the pro forma estimated gain of $72.9 million on the IAHC Sale, net of estimated expenses, and applicable income taxes had the transaction occurred on September 30, 2021.
f)Includes estimated liabilities for transaction costs and estimated state and Federal income taxes on the pro forma estimated gain.
g)Assuming Independence American reinsured its specialty health business to Madison National Life as of the beginning of the applicable period, the pro forma adjustment reflects the estimated net settlements related to the reinsured specialty health business from Madison National Life to IHC,

and the pro forma impact of estimated fees payable by IHC to Independence American for the administration of its specialty health business, until the policies run off, including estimated income taxes.
h)Reflects the aggregate impact of other discontinued operations reported in the historical interim financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 that were not yet presented as discontinued operations in the Company's historical financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. See Note 2.
i)As a result of the pro forma adjustments above, there are losses from continuing operations, therefore diluted earnings per share is calculated using basic weighted average shares outstanding.
