Explanatory Note
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Horizon Global Corporation (the "Company") on October 11, 2016 (the "Initial Form 8-K"), on October 4, 2016, the Company completed its acquisitions of WESTFALIA-Automotive Holding GmbH, Rheda-Wiedenbrück/Germany ("Westfalia") and TeIJs Holding B.V. ("TeIJs" and, together with Westfalia, the "Westfalia Group").
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Initial Form 8-K to include financial statements of Westfalia required by Item 9.01(a) of Form 8-K and pro forma financial information related to the acquisition of Westfalia required by Item 9.01(b). Pursuant to a letter dated November 23, 2016 (the "Waiver") from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the "Division") of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Division stated that it would waive the requirement under Rule 3-05 of Regulation S‑X to file the financial statements of TeIJs based on the information provided by the Company and pursuant to its authority in Rule 3-13 of Regulation S-X. In a letter dated November 18, 2016, the Company provided its conclusion to the Division that although TeIJs and Westfalia were related businesses as set forth in Rule 3-05(3)(ii) of Regulation S-X, the business of TeIJs was quantitatively insignificant to the Company and, therefore, financial statements of TeIJs were not reasonably necessary to inform investors about the Company’s acquisition of the Westfalia Group and the provision of financial statements of Westfalia and the related pro forma financial information would provide investors with all necessary information regarding the financial impact of the acquisition of the Westfalia Group. Based on the Waiver, the Company is not providing historical financial statements of TeIJs or separate pro forma financial information related to the acquisition of TeIJs.
