VF Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, collectively known as “VF” or the “Company”) changed to a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31 of each year. VF previously used a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31 of each year. The Company's current fiscal year runs from April 1, 2018 through March 30, 2019 ("Fiscal 2019"). Accordingly, this Form 10-Q presents our second quarter of Fiscal 2019. For presentation purposes herein, all references to periods ended September 2018, March 2018 and September 2017 relate to the fiscal periods ended on September 29, 2018, March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively.
The Nautica® brand business and the Licensing Business (which comprised the Licensed Sports Group and JanSport® brand collegiate businesses) have been reported as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Income, and the related held-for-sale assets and liabilities have been presented as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, through their dates of disposal. These changes have been applied to all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, discussion within these notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. Refer to Note 5 for additional information on discontinued operations.
During the three months ended September 2018, the Company reached the decision to sell its Reef® brand and Van Moer businesses. The Company determined that the associated assets and liabilities met the held-for-sale accounting criteria and they were classified accordingly in the September 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheet. Refer to Note 5 for additional information on divestitures.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of VF for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended September 2018 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for Fiscal 2019. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in VF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017 (“2017 Form 10-K”).
