SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and include the Company’s consolidated domestic and international subsidiaries. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2017. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. All dollar amounts (other than per share amounts) in the following discussion are in millions of United States (“U.S.”) dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents funds that are not readily available for general purpose cash needs due to contractual limitations. Restricted cash is classified as a current or long-term asset based on the timing and nature of when or how the cash is expected to be used or when the restrictions are expected to lapse. As of March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the Company had restricted cash of $25.7 and $35.3, respectively, included in Restricted cash in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Restricted cash balance as of March 31, 2018 provides collateral for certain bank guarantees on rent, customs and duty accounts. Restricted cash is included as a component of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 revenues and expenses during the period reported. Significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, the market value of inventory, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities associated with acquisitions, pension benefit costs, the assessment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment, income taxes and the fair value of redeemable noncontrolling interests. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates and assumptions resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.
Tax Information
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was (7.9)% and 36.9%, respectively, and (211.8)% and 69.3% for the nine months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The negative effective tax rate in the three months ended March 31, 2018 results from reporting a loss before income taxes but a provision for income taxes while the negative tax rate in the nine months ended March 31, 2018 results from reporting income before income taxes but a benefit for incomes taxes. The positive effective tax rate in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017 results from reporting losses before incomes taxes and a benefit for income taxes. The change in effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the prior period, results from a lower level of uncertain tax position reserve releases (due to the expiration of foreign statutes of limitations), in addition to the impact of new tax legislation (as described below), in the current period. The change in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the prior period, results from (i) the resolution of foreign uncertain tax positions of approximately $43.0 ($41.8 in tax and $1.2 in interest) in the current period and (ii) the release of a valuation allowance of $111.2 in the U.S. as a result of The Procter & Gamble Company’s (“P&G”) Beauty Business acquisition in the prior period.
The effective income tax rates vary from the U.S. federal statutory rate of approximately 28% due to the effect of (i) jurisdictions with different statutory rates, (ii) adjustments to the Company’s unrealized tax benefits (“UTBs”) and accrued interest, (iii) non-deductible expenses, (iv) audit settlements and (v) valuation allowance changes. As of January 1, 2018, the U.S. federal statutory rate decreased from 35% to 21%. As the Company has a June 30 fiscal year-end, the lower rate will be phased in, resulting in a blended rate of approximately 28% for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.
On December 22, 2017, “H.R.1”, formerly known as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (“Tax Act”) was enacted. The Tax Act significantly revises the U.S. corporate income tax system by, amongst other things, reducing the federal tax rate on U.S. earnings to 21%, implementing a modified territorial tax system and imposing a one-time deemed repatriation tax on historical earnings generated by foreign subsidiaries that have not been repatriated to the U.S.
On December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the enactment date of the Tax Act for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act.
In connection with the Company’s initial analysis of the impact of the Tax Act, the Company estimates the overall impact to be approximately $15.0 of expense from a financial statement perspective and neutral from a cash perspective for fiscal 2018. The Company expects to fully offset the cash impact of the one-time deemed repatriation tax with tax attributes (e.g., net operating loss carryforwards, net operating losses generated in fiscal 2018, foreign tax credits, etc.). The expense in the financial statements as a result of utilizing these tax attributes of approximately $370.0 is expected to be almost fully offset by the tax benefit estimated on the revaluation of its deferred taxes of approximately $300.0 and a tax benefit of approximately $55.0 related to the release of uncertain tax positions as a result of the one-time deemed repatriation tax. For various reasons that are discussed more fully below, the Company has not completed its accounting for the income tax effects of certain elements of the Tax Act. Where the Company was able to make reasonable estimates of the effects of elements for which the analysis is not yet complete, provisional adjustments were recorded. These provisional estimates may be affected by other elements related to the Tax Act, including, but not limited to, the state tax effect of adjustments made to federal temporary differences, confirming the amount of fiscal 2018 foreign earnings that will be subject to the one-time deemed repatriation tax, the division of foreign earnings subject to the repatriation tax between cash and non-liquid assets, and validating the amount of tax attributes the Company expects to utilize against the repatriation tax.
As the Company finalizes the analysis of the impact of the Tax Act, additional adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period. The Company will reflect measurement period adjustments, if any, in the period in which the adjustments are recognized.
The Tax Act requires a U.S. shareholder of a foreign corporation to include in income its global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”). In general, GILTI is described as the excess of a U.S. shareholder’s total net foreign income over a deemed return on tangible assets. As a result of recently released FASB guidance, an entity may choose to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or an entity can elect to treat GILTI as a period cost and include it in the tax expense of the year it is incurred. As such, the Company has elected to treat the tax on GILTI as a tax expense in the year it is incurred rather than recognizing deferred taxes.
As of March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the gross amount of UTBs was $216.3 and $257.9, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, the total amount of UTBs that, if recognized, would impact the effective income tax rate is $203.5. As of March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the liability associated with UTBs, including accrued interest and penalties, was $214.1 and $154.6, respectively, which was recorded in Income and other taxes payable and Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total interest and penalties recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to UTBs was $(0.2) and $(0.6) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $1.9 and $0.4 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The total gross accrued interest and penalties recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017 was $13.6 and $11.7, respectively. On the basis of the information available as of March 31, 2018, it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $8.1 in UTBs may occur within 12 months as a result of projected resolutions of global tax examinations and a potential lapse of the applicable statutes of limitations.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company adopted the amended Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The primary impact of the new standard was the recognition of previously unrecognized excess tax benefits as an $8.3 cumulative-effect adjustment to Accumulated deficit as of July 1, 2017 to reflect a modified retrospective application. Prospectively, the excess tax benefits will be recorded as a component of Income tax expense as required, whereas they were previously recorded in Additional paid-in capital (“APIC”). Additionally, the ASU required that $3.5 related to shares withheld for employee taxes to be reported in Cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2018 with an insignificant impact to prior periods. 
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which simplifies the measurement of inventories by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-11 during the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income StatementReporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which allows for a reclassification of the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI/(L)”) to Retained earnings. The amendment will be effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which provided guidance for improvements to accounting for hedging activities under ASC 815. The amendments better align an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. The amendment will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which implements a common revenue model that will enhance comparability across industries and require enhanced disclosures. The new standard introduces a five step principles based process to determine the timing and amount of revenue ultimately expected to be recorded. In March 2016, the FASB issued authoritative guidance amending certain portions of this standard to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued authoritative guidance amending certain portions of this standard to clarify the considerations for identifying performance obligations and to clarify the implementation guidance for revenue recognized from licensing arrangements. In May 2016, the FASB issued authoritative guidance amending certain portions of the standard to narrow the scope over, or to provide practical expedients, for assessing pending collectibility, presentation of sales taxes, noncash consideration, and completed contracts and contract modifications at transition. The Company will adopt the standard on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method of adoption. The Company’s evaluation indicated that the adoption impact is expected to be primarily related to the timing of certain accruals associated with customer incentives and potential reclassifications of certain costs between Selling, general and administrative expenses and expenses recorded as a reduction of revenue resulting from changes in the accounting treatment of store fixtures under the new standard. The Company is finalizing its assessment of the final impact of this ASU on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in its balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company plans to adopt the standard on July 1, 2019. The Company is in the early stages of its evaluation of the standard and has an implementation team in place that is performing an evaluation of the impact this standard will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
