INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

To the members of

Younique, LLC

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Younique, LLC and Subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, members’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Younique, LLC and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents also include amounts due from third-party financial institutions for credit and debit card transactions. Typically these amounts are settled within a few days and totaled $949,231 at December 31, 2016.

 

Inventories – Inventories consist primarily of merchandise purchased held for resale, and are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in, first-out method. Obsolete or defective inventories are written off in a timely manner. Inventories determined to be excess or slow-moving are written down to lower of cost or market.

 

Prepaids and Other Current Assets – The Company has made payments for taxes, inventories, events, incentives, and other services that will be received, consumed or used in a future period.

YOUNIQUE, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These differences may be material. Some of the most significant estimates relate to depreciation and amortization of assets, inventory reserves, and deferred revenue.

 

Fair Value – The Company has concluded that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and certain accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The recorded value of capital lease obligations approximate fair value as the interest rate approximates market interest rates.

 

Property and Equipment – Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight line method over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Furniture and office equipment 3-7 years
Computer equipment and software 3-5 years
Automotive equipment 3 years
Machinery and equipment 5 years
Leasehold improvements Life of the lease (1-5 years)

 

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment totaled $1,845,784 for the year ended December 31, 2016. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible Assets – Intangible assets consists of original program code used to develop and build the presenter sales and commission engine and formulas used in the Company’s products. Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the assets; between 5 and 10 years.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – Management reviews the carrying amount of long-lived assets for possible impairment by comparing the carrying value to the undiscounted estimated future cash flows of the related assets. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount, the Company uses valuation methodologies to determine the fair value of the assets. Any necessary adjustment would reduce the assets to their fair value. The resulting loss is reported as a component of operating activities.

 

Deposits – Deposits have been made for various office and warehouse space, including the building lease.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Foreign Currency Translation – A portion of the Company’s sales and operations occur outside the United States. Each subsidiary’s local currency is considered to be its functional currency. Since the Company reports its financial position and results of operations in U.S. dollars, it is necessary to translate each foreign subsidiary’s financial position and results of operations into U.S. dollars prior to consolidation. Each foreign subsidiary’s assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates existing at the balance sheet date, revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates over the period, and equity is recorded at historical exchange rates.

 

The resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses are included in “other income (expense)” in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

 

Revenue Recognition – Revenue is recognized when products are delivered, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the presenter or customer. The Company classifies selling discounts and rebates as a reduction of revenue at the time a sale is recorded. Management evaluates product returns and records a reserve, if material, based on historical experience. The Company generally requires cash or credit card payment at the point of sale. Amounts collected and remitted from credit card companies are generally received within a few days of purchase. These amounts are included in cash and cash equivalents, and such amounts that are received prior to delivery of the related product to customers are recorded as deferred revenue.

 

Deferred revenue includes cash amounts transacted with presenters or customers prior to product delivery, and totaled $8,915,390 at December 31, 2016.

 

Shipping and handling fees charged to presenters or customers are included in revenue, and shipping and handling costs paid by the Company are included in cost of sales in these consolidated financial statements. Sales and other transaction related taxes are excluded from revenue.

 

Refunds and Product Warranty – Presenters or customers returning products, including defective products, within the first 14 days following purchase are eligible for a full refund. Presenters or customers returning products, including defective products, 15 – 30 days following purchase are eligible for an 80% refund. In addition, presenters or customers may exchange product that is in unused and resalable condition for like products. The Company has established accruals for its estimated refund and product warranty obligations (see Note 7).

 

Presenter Incentives – Presenter incentives include cash payments made under the Company’s global sales compensation plan. Presenters earn incentives by arranging or facilitating a sale of commissionable product, with the ability to earn additional incentives for reaching volume objectives and other achievements. Presenters are not required to recruit or sponsor others and the Company does not pay commissions solely for recruiting or sponsoring.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The Company accrues presenter incentives expense at the time the underlying products are delivered. Presenter incentives paid on product that has been recorded as deferred revenue is recorded as a prepaid asset until the related revenue is earned (see Note 4).

 

Income Taxes – Younique USA is a non-taxpaying entity for U.S. federal and most state income tax purposes. However, Younique USA is subject to certain state taxes and fees which are recorded as income tax expense in these consolidated financial statements.

 

Younique International Holdings, LLC and Belize are not separate entities for income tax reporting purposes. Their accounts and transactions, if any, are included in the income tax return of their parent, Younique USA.

 

Younique Mexico, Younique Europe, Younique Spain and Younique Hong Kong utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred taxes are provided based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax expense of benefit is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The above taxable entities recorded no significant deferred tax assets or liabilities at December 31, 2016.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the jurisdictions of the U.S., Mexico, Spain, Hong Kong, Netherlands and France. The income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by taxing authorities generally for three to five years from the date they are filed.

 

The Company had no liabilities recorded for uncertain income tax positions and therefore had no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2016. Interest and penalties for uncertain income tax provisions, when applicable, would be recognized as a component of income tax expense.

 

Member Profit Interest Unit Based Compensation – The Company records equity compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements for member profit interest incentive units issued to employees and consultants based on the grant date fair value and an estimate of forfeitures derived from historical experience. Member profit interest unit based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line bases over the vesting service period, which is typically four years from the date of issuance. All issued and outstanding profit interest units had vested at December 31, 2016.

 

Advertising – Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $102,875 for the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Intercompany Accounts and Transactions – All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted – In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated accounting guidance on the following eight specific cash flow classification issues: (1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; (2) settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest

rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; (3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) distributions received from equity method investees; (7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and (8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. Current GAAP does not include specific guidance on these eight cash flow classification issues. These updates are effective for the Company for its annual period beginning January 1, 2019, and interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact these updates will have on its financial statements.

 

In March 2016 the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to stock compensation. This update simplifies the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for the Company for its annual period beginning January 1, 2018. The Company is evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to leases as part of a joint project with the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for capital and operating leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Additionally, this update will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. The standard is effective for the Company for its annual period beginning January 1, 2020, and interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact this new standard may have on its financial statements.

 

In May 2014, in addition to several amendments issued during 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for the Company for its annual period beginning January 1, 2019, and interim periods therein, and shall be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its financial statements.

Exhibit 99.2

 

Unaudited Condensed Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements of Coty

 

The following unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared by Coty Inc. (“Coty”) to give effect to the acquisitions of Younique, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Younique”) and certain assets and liabilities related to The Procter & Gamble Company’s (“P&G”) global fine fragrances, salon professional, cosmetics and retail hair color businesses, along with select hair styling brands (the “P&G Beauty Business”). On February 1, 2017, Coty contributed $600.0 million of cash consideration, net of acquired cash and debt assumed, to Foundation, LLC (“Foundation”) in exchange for a 60% membership interest in Foundation and the existing Younique membership holders contributed their 100% membership interest in Younique to Foundation in exchange for a 40% membership interest in Foundation, including the $600.0 million of cash consideration (the “Younique Acquisition”).

 

On October 1, 2016, Coty completed the merger (the “Merger”) of Green Acquisition Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”) with and into Galleria Co. (“Galleria”), with Galleria surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Coty, as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, dated as July 8, 2015, as amended (the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among P&G, Galleria, Coty and Merger Sub.

 

The Younique and P&G Beauty Business acquisitions are each being accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method with Coty as the accounting acquirer in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting the purchase price is allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition. The process of valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Younique and the P&G Beauty Business is not finalized. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements. Material revisions to Coty’s current estimates could be necessary as the valuation and accounting policy conformity processes are finalized. As a result, the actual amounts of depreciation and amortization expenses may be materially different from that presented.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of Coty and Younique as of December 31, 2016, giving effect to the Younique Acquisition as if it had occurred on December 31, 2016. The historical consolidated balance sheet of Coty as of December 31, 2016 reflects the assets and liabilities from the P&G Beauty Business acquisition.

 

The unaudited condensed combined pro forma statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016 combine the historical consolidated statements of operations of Coty, Younique and P&G Beauty Business for such periods, giving effect to the Younique and P&G Beauty Business acquisitions as if they had occurred on July 1, 2015. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma statements of operations include P&G Beauty Business’ historical results of operations from July 1, 2016 through September 30, 2016, as P&G Beauty Business’ results of operations subsequent to Coty’s October 1, 2016 acquisition of P&G Beauty Business are included in Coty’s historical consolidated statement of operations.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and for the year ended June 30, 2016 are based on: (i) historical consolidated statements of operations of Coty (which include the results of P&G Beauty Business subsequent to Coty’s October 1, 2016 acquisition of P&G Beauty Business); (ii) the historical consolidated statement of income of Younique; and (iii) and the historical consolidated statements of operations of P&G Beauty Business.

 

The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma adjustments that are factually supportable, directly attributable to the Younique and P&G Beauty Business acquisitions, and with respect to the statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact.

 

The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with:

 

·Coty’s audited historical consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016;
·Coty’s unaudited historical condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended December 31, 2016;
·Younique’s audited historical consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016;
·P&G Beauty Business’ audited historical combined financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016; and
·accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements.

 

The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements have been prepared for illustrative purposes only, and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the Younique and P&G Beauty Business

1

acquisitions had been consummated on the dates indicated, nor is necessarily indicative of the results of operations or financial condition that may be expected for any future period or date.

 

The unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information does not reflect pro forma adjustments for the realization of any future expected cost savings or other synergies from the Younique and P&G Beauty Business acquisitions as a result of any planned cost savings initiatives following the completion of the business combinations.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(Dollars in tables in millions, except per share data)

 

Note 1—Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed combined pro forma statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016 combine Younique’s unaudited historical consolidated statement of income for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and unaudited historical consolidated statement of income for the year ended June 30, 2016, as well as P&G Beauty Business’ unaudited historical combined statement of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and audited historical financial combined statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2016 with Coty’s unaudited historical condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2016 (which include the results of P&G Beauty Business subsequent to Coty’s October 1, 2016 acquisition of P&G Beauty Business) and audited historical consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet combines the audited historical consolidated balance sheet of Younique as of December 31, 2016, with Coty’s unaudited historical condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 (which includes the assets and liabilities of P&G Beauty Business.)

 

Coty’s fiscal year ends on June 30 and Younique’s fiscal year ends on December 31. For Younique’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, the net revenues were $283.5 million and $395.9 million, respectively. In order to prepare the unaudited condensed combined pro forma statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2016, Younique’s operating results were derived from Younique’s historical audited consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2016, Younique’s historical unaudited consolidated statement of income for the six months periods ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The historical financial information for Younique and P&G Beauty Business are adjusted in the unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial statements to give effect to unaudited pro forma adjustments that are (1) directly attributable to the Younique and P&G Beauty Business acquisitions, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined operating results.

 

Note 2—Preliminary Purchase Price Allocations

 

The Younique and P&G Beauty Business acquisitions are each being accounted for as a business combination with Coty as the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, Coty’s cost to purchase Younique and P&G Beauty Business was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values on February 1, 2017 and October 1, 2016, respectively.

7

Younique

 

The preliminary purchase price was $600.0 million, net of acquired cash and debt assumed. Additionally, Coty recorded $410.9 million of redeemable noncontrolling interest for the 40% membership interest that is owned by the noncontrolling shareholder. Coty estimated the preliminary fair value of acquired assets and liabilities as of the date of the Younique Acquisition based on information currently available. Coty is still evaluating the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed in the Younique Acquisition. As Coty finalizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional purchase price adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period. Coty will reflect measurement period adjustments, if any, in the period in which the adjustments are recognized.

 

The following table summarizes the estimated allocation of the purchase price to the net assets of Younique as of the February 1, 2017 acquisition date:

 

Net working capital  $108.8 
Cash and cash equivalents   17.5 
Trademark - definite   122.0 
Product formulations   0.6 
Goodwill   521.4 
Customer relationships   194.0

Total equity value  $1,027.2 
Redeemable noncontrolling interest   410.9 
Net cash and debt acquired     16.3  
Total purchase price  $600.0 

 

P&G Beauty Business

 

Coty estimated the preliminary fair value of acquired assets and liabilities as of the date of acquisition based on information currently available. Coty is still evaluating the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed. As Coty finalizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional purchase price adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period. Coty will reflect measurement period adjustments, if any, in the period in which the adjustments are recognized.

 

The following table summarizes the estimated allocation of the purchase price to the net assets of the P&G Beauty Business as of the October 1, 2016 acquisition date:

 

The purchase price is as follows:
Equity consideration exchanged  $9,628.6

10
(a)   Adjustment to record inventory at its preliminary estimated fair value.

 

(b)  

Reflects the recognition of $521.4 million of goodwill, $316.6 million of finite-lived intangible assets and the recognition of $55.0 million of software acquired related to a social media sales interface.

 

The estimated fair value of finite-lived intangible assets acquired represents an increase over Younique’s historical finite-lived intangible assets relating to Younique at February 1, 2017. The preliminary estimated fair value allocated to finite-lived intangible assets consists primarily of a trademark, customer relationships and product formulations. The actual adjustments may differ materially based on the final determination of fair value and are subject to change. Management relied on methods under the income approach—specifically the relief-from royalty method for the trademark and multi-period excess earnings method for customer relationships. For product formulations, management utilized the replacement cost method under the cost approach. For the software, Coty utilized the replacement cost method under the cost approach.

 

(c)  

Reflects the elimination of Younique’s historical intangible assets and historical members’ equity in connection with the Younique Acquisition.

 

(d)  

Represents the recognition of the redeemable noncontrolling interest at fair value related to the 40% membership interest owned by the noncontrolling shareholders.

 

(e)  

Represents deferred tax assets and liabilities that were recognized for differences between the book and tax basis for the assets and liabilities on Younique’s consolidated balance sheet as such attributes flows through the limited liability company structure to Coty. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the tax effect of the difference between the estimated assigned fair value of the assets/liabilities and the tax basis of such assets/liabilities. The estimate was determined by multiplying the difference in the tax basis of the respective asset/liability over the book value by a blended statutory tax rate estimate of 38%. The blended statutory tax rate is the weighted average of the statutory tax rates, based on the fair market values of the acquired assets and the jurisdictions in which the acquired assets are located. This rate may change as Coty performs a complete tax analysis. In addition, the actual deferred tax liabilities may differ materially based on changes to the valuation allowance on the combined business which is not included for the purposes of these pro forma financial statements.

 

(f)  

Reflects assumed funds used which included an estimated $116.3 million of cash and the estimated incremental $500.0 million credit facility drawn in connection with the Younique Acquisition. Reflects $5.2 million of Younique’s acquisition-related costs that were not incurred as of December 31, 2016 and were incurred at the closing of the Younique Acquisition through an adjustment to “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.”

 

(g)  

Reflects reclassification of expenses related to conventions and events from “Selling, general and administrative expenses” to “Cost of sales.”

 

(h)  

Reflects the reclassification of foreign currency loss from “Other expense (income), net” to “Selling, general and administrative expenses” and “Interest expense, net” to conform with Coty’s accounting policy.

 

(i)  

Reflects conforming presentation of amortization expense of intangible assets from “Selling, general and administrative expenses” to “Amortization expense.”

 

(j)  

Reflects conforming presentation of acquisition-related costs from “Selling, general and administrative expenses” to “Acquisition-related costs.”

 

(k)  

Represents the additional depreciation of property and equipment, net resulting from the Younique Acquisition. Coty depreciates the step-up in fair value of the software acquired over 5 years.

 

(l)  

Represents the additional straight-line amortization of the trademark, customer relationships, and product formulations resulting from the Younique Acquisition. Coty assumed a 20 year useful life for the trademark, 8 to 14 year useful lives for customer relationships, and 5 year useful lives for product formulations. The estimated useful lives were determined based on a review of the time period over which economic benefit is estimated to be generated as well as additional factors. Factors considered include contractual life, the period over which a majority of cash flow is expected to be generated, and/or management’s view based on historical experience with similar assets.

 

Reflective of the preliminary purchase price adjustment, for every 5% increase to the fair value of finite-lived intangibles which is an approximate increase of $15.8 million in the fair value of finite-lived intangibles, amortization expense would increase by $0.7 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016, respectively assuming useful life ranges as estimated above.

 

(m)  

Reflects the reversal of acquisition-related costs, which primarily include legal, accounting, valuation, other professional or consulting fees, and other internal costs which can include compensation related expenses for dedicated internal resources, as these costs were non-recurring and relate specifically to the Younique Acquisition. Coty incurred $0.7 million of acquisition-related costs in the six months ended December 31, 2016. Younique incurred $0.8 million of acquisition-related costs in the six months ended December 31, 2016.

11
(n)  

Reflects the incremental interest expense on $500.0 million credit facility drawn in connection with the Younique Acquisition. The interest rate used to compute the incremental interest expense was 2.48% assuming LIBOR rate of 0.98% plus an adjustment of 150 basis points.

 

(o)  

Reflects net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the 40% membership interest owned by the noncontrolling shareholders.

 

(p)   For purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, Coty used a blended statutory income tax rate estimate of 38% for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016. The blended statutory tax rate is the weighted average of the statutory tax rates, based on the fair market values of the acquired assets and the jurisdictions in which the acquired assets are located. Additionally, an adjustment was made to record the income tax applicable to the flow through net income from the LLC on Coty’s federal tax returns. This rate may change as Coty performs a complete tax analysis.

(a) The historical financial information of P&G Beauty Business includes results from the Excluded Brands and the Divested Brands. As such, P&G Beauty Business’ historical balances are adjusted to reflect these brands not being transferred with Galleria. Coty’s management believes that these adjustments are factually supportable as (i) the historical financial information of the Excluded Brands and the Divested Brands is derived from P&G’s management reporting systems; (ii) the revenues of the Excluded Brands and the Divested Brands do not include any allocations; and (iii) the expenses of the Excluded Brands and the Divested Brands do not include any allocations, and only direct administrative personnel costs and expenses related to the Excluded Brands and the Divested Brands are excluded from the pro forma statements of operations.
   
(b) Reflects adjustment to remove one-time termination fees from P&G Beauty Business’ historical statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2016 as the fees relate to the termination and sale of the Dolce & Gabbana fragrance license, which is excluded from the Transactions. The tax impact of this expense was a reduction of $10.0 million.
   
(c) Reflects reversal of P&G Beauty Business one -time, non-cash, before-tax impairment charge of $48.0 million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 in order to reflect the Dolce & Gabbana license intangible asset at its updated value estimate of net realizable value, reflecting the impact of the decision to exclude the Dolce & Gabbana license from the Transactions. The tax impact of this impairment was a reduction of $6.0 million.
   
(d) Reflects adjustment to remove gain on sale of assets from P&G Beauty Business’ historical statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2016 as the gain relates to the sale of brands not transferring with Galleria Company. The tax expense associated with this gain on sales of assets was $3.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2016.
   
(e) Reflects the incremental interest expense as a result of debt assumed of $1.9 billion from Galleria Company. The weighted average interest rate used to compute the incremental interest expense was 3.08% assuming LIBOR rates ranging from 0.750% to 0.875% plus an adjustment of 150 to 300 basis points for each term loan as described in the credit agreement.
   
(f) Coty used a blended statutory income tax rate estimate of 23% for the three months September 30, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016 for both the Excluded Brands and Divested Brands. The blended statutory tax rate is the weighted average of the statutory tax rates, based on the fair market values of the acquired assets and the jurisdictions in which the acquired assets are located.

(a) Reflects conforming presentation of restructuring costs from “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses” to “Restructuring costs.”
   
(b) Reflects conforming presentation of amortization expense of intangible assets from “Selling, general and administrative expenses” to “Amortization expense.”
14
(c) Represents the additional depreciation adjustment of acquired “Property and equipment” resulting from the increase in fair value of these assets from the Merger. As different categories of acquired property and equipment become fully depreciated over different useful lives, a fair value and remaining useful life were assessed for each asset class. Coty grouped pools of assets with similar useful lives, and divided the aggregated fair value by the remaining useful life for that pool of assets to derive the straight-line depreciation expenses. Coty assumed a 13-year weighted-average useful life. For each $20.0 million fair value adjustment increase to Property and equipment, assuming a weighted-average useful life of 13 years, depreciation expense would increase by approximately $0.4 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016 using the straight-line method of depreciation.
   
(d) Reflects the reversal of acquisition-related costs, which primarily include legal, accounting, valuation, other professional or consulting fees, and other internal costs which can include compensation related expenses for dedicated internal resources, as these costs are non-recurring and relate specifically to the Transactions. Coty incurred $79.4 million and $163.8 million of acquisition-related costs in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016, respectively. P&G Beauty Business incurred $106.1 million and $66.9 million of acquisition-related costs in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016, of which $8.9 million and $10.4 million is reflected in “Cost of sales,” $63.5 million and $43.5 million is reflected in “Selling, general and administrative expenses,” $4.4 million and $13.0 million is reflected in “Interest expense, net” and $29.3 million and $0 is reflected in “Other expense (income), net” in the three months ended September 30, 2016, and the year ended June 30, 2016, respectively.
   
(e) Represents the additional straight-line amortization of trademarks, customer relationships, license agreements, product formulations, technology, and off-market contracts resulting from the Merger. Coty assumed ten to 30 year useful lives for trademarks, 1.5 to 17 year useful lives for customer relationships, ten to 30 year useful lives for license agreements, five to 29 year useful lives for product formulations, a five year useful life for technology, and a ten year useful life for off-market contracts. The estimated useful lives were determined based on a review of the time period over which economic benefit is estimated to be generated as well as additional factors. Factors considered include contractual life, the period over which a majority of cash flow is expected to be generated, and/or management’s view based on historical experience with similar assets.

Reflective of the preliminary purchase price adjustment, for every 5% increase to the fair value of finite-lived intangibles which is an approximate increase of $228.2 million in the fair value of finite-lived intangibles, amortization expense would increase by $3.5 million and $14.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and year ended June 30, 2016, respectively assuming useful life ranges as estimated above.
   
(f) For purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, Coty used a blended statutory income tax rate estimate of 23% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended June 30, 2016. The blended statutory tax rate is the weighted average of the statutory tax rates, based on the fair market values of the acquired assets and the jurisdictions in which the acquired assets are located. This rate may change as Coty performs a complete tax analysis.
