Williamson-Dickie

On October 2, 2017, VF acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Williamson-Dickie Mfg. Co. (“Williamson-Dickie”) for $800.7 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments. The purchase price was primarily funded with short-term borrowings. During the three months ended March 2018, the purchase consideration was reduced by $2.3 million associated with the final working capital adjustment, resulting in a revised purchase price of $798.4 million.

Williamson-Dickie was a privately held company based in Ft. Worth, Texas, and was one of the largest companies in the workwear sector with a portfolio of brands including Dickies^®, Workrite^®, Kodiak^®, Terra^® and Walls^®. The acquisition of Williamson-Dickie brings together complementary assets and capabilities, and creates a workwear business that will now serve an even broader set of consumers and industries around the world.

For the three months ended June 2018, Williamson-Dickie contributed revenues of $219.1 million and net income of $14.8 million, including restructuring charges.

The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and subject to change for certain income tax matters. Accordingly, adjustments may be made to the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the Williamson-Dickie assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:



(In thousands)	October 2, 2017
Cash and equivalents	$	60,172
Accounts receivable	146,403
Inventories	251,778
Other current assets	8,447
Property, plant and equipment	105,119
Intangible assets	397,755
Other assets	9,665
Total assets acquired	979,339

Short-term borrowings	17,565
Accounts payable	88,052
Other current liabilities	109,964
Deferred income tax liabilities	15,160
Other non-current liabilities	33,066
Total liabilities assumed	263,807

Net assets acquired	715,532
Goodwill	82,863
Purchase price	$	798,395

The goodwill is attributable to the acquired workforce of Williamson-Dickie and the significant synergies expected to arise as a result of the acquisition. All of the goodwill was assigned to the Work segment and $52.3 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The Dickies^®, Kodiak^®, Terra^® and Walls^® trademarks, which management determined to have indefinite lives, have been valued at $316.1 million. The Workrite^® trademark, valued at $0.8 million, is being amortized over three years.

Amortizable intangible assets have been assigned values of $78.6 million for customer relationships and $2.3 million for distribution agreements. Customer relationships are being amortized using an accelerated method over periods ranging from 10-13 years. Distribution agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over four years.

Total transaction expenses for the Williamson-Dickie acquisition were $15.0 million, all of which were recognized in the year ended December 30, 2017 in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in VF's Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information of VF as if the acquisition of Williamson-Dickie had occurred on January 3, 2016:



(In thousands)	Three Months Ended June 2017 (unaudited)
Total revenues	$	2,484,272
Income from continuing operations	113,919
Earnings per common share from continuing operations
Basic	$	0.29
Diluted	0.28

These pro forma amounts have been calculated after applying VF’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Williamson-Dickie to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets had been applied from January 3, 2016, with related tax effects.

Pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of VF’s operating results if the acquisition had been effected at the date indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results. Amounts do not include any marketing leverage, operating efficiencies or cost savings that VF believes are achievable.

Icebreaker

On April 3, 2018, VF acquired 100% of the stock of Icebreaker Holdings Limited ("Icebreaker") for NZ$274.4 million ($198.5 million) in cash. The purchase price decreased NZ$1.0 million ($0.7 million) during the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 related to a working capital adjustment, and remains subject to further working capital and other adjustments. The purchase price was primarily funded with short-term borrowings.

Icebreaker was a privately held company based in Auckland, New Zealand. Icebreaker^®,the primary brand, specializes in high-performance apparel based on natural fibers, including Merino wool, plant-based fibers and recycled fibers. It is an ideal complement to VF's Smartwool^® brand, which also features Merino wool in its clothing and accessories. Together, the Smartwool^® and Icebreaker^® brands will position VF as a global leader in the Merino wool and natural fiber categories.

For the three months ended June 2018, Icebreakercontributed revenues of $25.7 million and a net loss of $0.8 million.

The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and subject to change, primarily for certain income tax matters. Accordingly, adjustments may be made to the value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the Icebreaker assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:



(In thousands)	April 3, 2018

Other non-current liabilities	433
Total liabilities assumed	54,464

Net assets acquired	111,077

Purchase price	$	197,837

The goodwill is attributable to the acquired workforce of Icebreaker and the significant synergies expected to arise as a result of the acquisition. All of the goodwill has been assigned to the Outdoor segment and none is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The Icebreaker^®trademark, which management determined to have an indefinite life, has been valued at $70.1 million. Amortizable intangible assets have been assigned values of $27.8 million for customer relationships and $0.2 million for distribution agreements. Customer relationships are being amortized using an accelerated method over 11.5 years. Distribution agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over four years.

Total transaction expenses for the Icebreaker acquisition of $7.4 million have been recognized in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income, of which $4.1 million was recognized during the three months ended June 2018. In addition, the Company has recognized a $9.9 million gain on derivatives used to hedge the purchase price of Icebreaker in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income, of which $0.3 million was recognized during the three months ended June 2018.

Pro forma results of operations of the Company would not be materially different as a result of the Icebreaker acquisition and therefore are not presented.

Altra

On June 1, 2018, VF acquired 100% of the stock of Icon-Altra LLC, plus certain assets in Europe ("Altra"). The purchase price was $131.7 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments and was primarily funded with short-term borrowings.

Altra^®, the primary brand, is an athletic and performance-based lifestyle footwear brand, based in Logan, Utah. Altra provides VF with a unique and differentiated technical footwear brand and a capability that, when applied across VF's footwear, direct-to-consumer and international platforms, will serve as a catalyst for growth.

For the three months ended June 2018, Altracontributed revenues of $4.0 million and net income of $0.1 million.

The Altra acquisition occurred late in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, and VF is still in the process of valuing the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Accordingly, the allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and subject to change, primarily for final adjustments to net working capital, income tax and limited other valuation matters. Adjustments may be made to the values of the acquired assets and liabilities as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the valuation date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the Altra assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:



(In thousands)	June 1, 2018
Accounts receivable	$	10,101
Inventories	9,434
Other current assets	575

Other current liabilities	7,415
