VF Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, collectively known as “VF” or the “Company”) uses a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31 of each year. The Company's current fiscal year runs from March 31, 2019 through March 28, 2020 ("Fiscal 2020"). Accordingly, this Form 10-Q presents our second quarter of Fiscal 2020. For presentation purposes herein, all references to periods ended September 2019 and September 2018 relate to the fiscal periods ended on September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, respectively. References to March 2019 relate to information as of March 30, 2019.
On May 22, 2019, VF completed the spin-off of its Jeans business, which included the Wrangler®, Lee® and Rock & Republic® brands, as well as the VF OutletTM business, into an independent, publicly traded company. As a result, VF reported the operating results for the Jeans business in the income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income and the related cash flows have been reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, for all periods presented. In addition, the related assets and liabilities have been reported as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, through the date the spin-off was completed.
Additionally, the Nautica® brand business has been reported as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, 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 the April 30, 2018 date of sale. 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.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the Fiscal 2020 presentation.
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. Similarly, the March 2019 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. 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 2019 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for Fiscal 2020. 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 March 30, 2019 (“Fiscal 2019 Form 10-K”).
