Common Stock

During the six months ended September 2018, the Company did not purchase shares of Common Stock in open market transactions under its share repurchase program authorized by VF’s Board of Directors.
Common Stock outstanding is net of shares held in treasury which are, in substance, retired. There were no shares held in treasury at the end of September 2018, March 2018 or September 2017. The excess of the cost of treasury shares acquired over the $0.25 per share stated value of Common Stock is deducted from retained earnings.
VF Common Stock is also held by the Company’s deferred compensation plans and is treated as treasury shares for financial reporting purposes. During the six months ended September 2018, the Company purchased 5,210 shares of Common Stock in open market transactions related to its deferred compensation plans for $0.5 million.

Balances related to shares held for deferred compensation plans were as follows:

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income consists of net income and specified components of other comprehensive income (“OCI”), which relates to changes in assets and liabilities that are not included in net income under GAAP but are instead deferred and accumulated within a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the balance sheet. VF’s comprehensive income is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The deferred components of OCI are reported, net of related income taxes, in accumulated OCI in stockholders’ equity, as follows:
