FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Financial assets and financial liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified in a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation process. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is based on the observability and objectivity of the pricing inputs, as follows:
•Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2 — Significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
•Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. These inputs would normally be VF’s own data and judgments about
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured and recorded in the consolidated financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis:
(a)There were no transfers among the levels within the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 2022 or the year ended March 2022.
The following table presents the activity related to the contingent consideration liability designated as Level 3:
VF’s cash equivalents include money market funds and time deposits with maturities within three months of their purchase dates, that approximate fair value based on Level 1 measurements. The fair value of derivative financial instruments, which consist of foreign exchange forward contracts, is determined based on observable market inputs (Level 2), including spot and forward exchange rates for foreign currencies, and considers the credit risk of the Company and its counterparties. VF’s deferred compensation assets primarily represent investments held within plan trusts as an economic hedge of the related deferred compensation liabilities. These investments primarily include mutual funds (Level 1) that are valued based on quoted prices in active markets. Liabilities related to VF’s deferred compensation plans are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of the participants’ selection of hypothetical investments.
The contingent consideration liability represented the amount of additional cash consideration paid to the selling shareholders of Supreme Holdings, Inc. ("Supreme"), which was dependent upon the achievement of certain financial targets over the one-year earn-out period ended January 31, 2022. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability, which could range from zero to $300.0 million, was $57.0 million as of March 2022
and $134.0 million as of June 2021. During Fiscal 2022, the contingent consideration liability was remeasured at fair value based on the probability-weighted present value of various future cash payment outcomes resulting from the estimated achievement levels of the financial targets, with changes recognized in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The contingent consideration was paid during the three months ended June 2022.
All other financial assets and financial liabilities are recorded in the consolidated financial statements at cost, except life insurance contracts which are recorded at cash surrender value. These other financial assets and financial liabilities include cash held as demand deposits, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. At June 2022 and March 2022, their carrying values approximated fair value. Additionally, at June 2022 and March 2022, the carrying values of VF’s long-term debt, including the current portion, were $4,469.5 million and $5,085.3 million, respectively, compared with fair values of $4,208.3 million and $5,042.5 million at those respective dates. Fair value for long-term debt is a Level 2 estimate based on quoted market prices or values of comparable borrowings.
