Fiscal Year
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 April 3, 2022 through April 1, 2023 ("Fiscal 2023"). Accordingly, this Form 10-Q presents our first quarter of Fiscal 2023. For presentation purposes herein, all references to periods ended June 2022 and June 2021 relate to the fiscal periods ended on July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, respectively. References to March 2022 relate to information as of April 2, 2022.
Basis of Presentation
On June 28, 2021, VF completed the sale of its Occupational Workwear business. The Occupational Workwear business was comprised primarily of the following brands and businesses: Red Kap®, VF Solutions®, Bulwark®, Workrite®, Walls®, Terra®, Kodiak®, Work Authority® and Horace Small®. The business also included the license of certain Dickies® occupational workwear products that have historically been sold through the business-to-business channel. The results of the Occupational Workwear business and the related cash flows have been reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, respectively, through the date of sale. These changes have been applied to all periods presented.
Unless otherwise noted, discussion within these notes to the interim consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. Refer to Note 4 for additional information on discontinued operations.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the Fiscal 2023 presentation.
The accompanying unaudited interim 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 2022 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim 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 months ended June 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for Fiscal 2023. 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 April 2, 2022 (“Fiscal 2022 Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates
In preparing the interim consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The duration and severity of the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the impact on VF's business is subject to uncertainty; however, the estimates and assumptions made by management include those related to COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine conflict based on available information. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
Supply Chain Financing Program
During the three months ended June 2022, VF reinstated its voluntary supply chain finance ("SCF") program. The SCF program enables a significant portion of our suppliers of inventory to leverage VF's credit rating to receive payment from participating financial institutions prior to the payment date specified in the terms between VF and the supplier. The SCF program is administered through third-party platforms that allow participating suppliers to track payments from VF and elect which VF receivables, if any, to sell to the financial institutions. The transactions are at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and financial institutions, and VF is not a party to the agreements and has no economic interest in the supplier's decision to sell a receivable. The terms between VF and the supplier, including the amount due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the SCF program. Amounts due to suppliers who voluntarily participate in the SCF program are included in the accounts payable line item in VF's Consolidated Balance Sheets and VF payments made under the SCF program are reflected in cash flows from operating activities in VF's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. VF has been informed by the participating financial institutions that amounts payable to them for suppliers who voluntarily participated in the SCF program and included in the accounts payable line item in VF's Consolidated Balance Sheet was $164.1 million at June 2022. The amount settled through the SCF program was $15.0 million during the three months ended June 2022.
There have been no other changes to the Company's significant accounting policies described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Fiscal 2022 Form 10-K.
