Supreme
On July 16, 2024, VF entered into a Purchase Agreement with EssilorLuxottica S.A. to sell Supreme for an aggregate base purchase price of $1.500 billion, subject to customary adjustments for cash, indebtedness, working capital and transaction expenses as more fully set forth in the Purchase Agreement. On October 1, 2024, VF completed the sale of Supreme. VF received proceeds of $1.506 billion, net of cash sold, resulting in a final after-tax loss on sale of $126.6 million, which is included in the income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax line item in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended March 2025. VF used a portion of the net cash proceeds to prepay $1.0 billion of its delayed draw Term Loan ("DDTL") pursuant to the terms of the DDTL Agreement, as amended, which required repayment within ten business days of VF’s receipt of the net cash proceeds from the sale of Supreme, and to repay $450.0 million of commercial
paper borrowings upon maturity during the third quarter of Fiscal 2025.
During the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company determined that Supreme met the held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria. Accordingly, the Company has reported the results of Supreme and the related cash flows as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, respectively, through the date of sale. The related held-for-sale assets and liabilities have been reported as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, through the date of sale. These changes have been applied to all periods presented.
The results of Supreme were previously reported in the Active segment. The results of Supreme recorded in the income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations were a loss of $259.0 million (including a final after-tax loss on sale of $126.6 million and goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges of $145.0 million), income of $49.6 million and a loss of $637.2 million (including goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges of
$735.0 million) for the years ended March 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2025, VF determined that a triggering event had occurred requiring impairment testing of the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. As a result of the impairment testing performed, VF recorded impairment charges of $94.0 million and $51.0 million to the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset, respectively.
During the year ended March 2023, VF recorded impairment charges of $394.1 million and $340.9 million to the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset, respectively. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2023, VF determined that a triggering event had occurred requiring quantitative analysis of the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. As a result of the impairment testing performed, VF recorded impairment charges of $229.0 million and $192.9 million to the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset, respectively. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2023, in connection with its annual impairment testing, VF performed a quantitative analysis of the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. As a result of the
impairment testing performed, VF recorded additional impairment charges of $165.1 million and $148.0 million to the Supreme reporting unit goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset, respectively.
Under the terms of a transition services agreement, the Company will provide certain post-closing accounting, tax, treasury, digital technology, supply chain and human resource services on a transitional basis for periods generally up to 12 months from the closing date of the transaction. Under the terms of a secondment agreement, certain employees associated with the Supreme business remained employees of VF and worked exclusively in support of Supreme, and at Supreme's expense, through the end of Fiscal 2025.
Certain corporate overhead costs and segment costs previously allocated to the Supreme brand for segment reporting purposes did not qualify for classification within discontinued operations and have been allocated to continuing operations. In addition, interest expense and the related interest rate swap impact for the DDTL were allocated to discontinued operations due to the requirement within the DDTL Agreement, as amended, that the DDTL be prepaid upon the receipt of the net cash proceeds from the sale of Supreme.
