BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, ASSET ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions

King Kylie Transaction

On November 18, 2019, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with King Kylie, LLC ("King Kylie"), a Delaware limited liability company, and the other parties listed as signatories to the Purchase Agreement (the “Seller Group Parties”), to build and further expand King Kylie’s brands globally. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on January 6, 2020, the Company acquired 51% of the equity interests in King Kylie from the applicable Seller Group Parties for a base purchase price of $600.0 in cash. In addition, as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Collaboration Agreement, pursuant to which, in exchange for a marketing fee and a license fee, it received the right and license to manufacture, advertise, promote, distribute and sell certain products of King Kylie and use certain intellectual property owned by or licensed to King Kylie in connection with the development, manufacture, labelling, packaging, advertising, display, distribution and sale of such products.

The Company estimated the preliminary fair value of acquired assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest as of the date of acquisition based on information currently available. The preliminary fair values are substantially complete, with the exception of primarily accrued expenses and goodwill. As the Company finalizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional purchase price 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 following table summarizes the estimated allocation of the purchase price to the net assets as of the January 6, 2020 acquisition date:


	Estimated fair value (a)		Measurement period adjustments (b)	Estimated fair value as adjusted		Estimated useful life (in years)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	7.8	—	7.8
Receivables	1.0		—	1.0
Inventories	2.5		—	2.5
Property, plant and equipment	3.6		—	3.6
Collaboration agreement	369.0		—	369.0		20
License agreement	280.0		—	280.0		20
Customer relationships	27.0		—	27.0		1.5
Goodwill	128.6		—	128.6		Indefinite
Net other liabilities	(6.6)		—	(6.6)
Total value	$	812.9	—	812.9

Noncontrolling interest	212.9			212.9
Total purchase price	$	600.0		$	600.0

(a) As previously reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020.

(b) The Company recorded no measurement period adjustments in fiscal 2021, other than allocating the goodwill as noted below.

Goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies resulting from integrating King Kylie’s products into the Company’s existing manufacturing and sales channels. Goodwill of $66.6,

$35.9 and $26.1 is allocated to the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific segments, respectively. The allocation of goodwill to segments was based on the relative fair values of expected future cash flows.

The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was estimated using the income approach applied to the projected cash flows of King Kylie. As King Kylie is a private company, the fair value measurement was based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus, represent a Level 3 measurement.

Business Divestitures

Wella Business

On November 30, 2020, the Company completed the strategic transaction with KKR for the sale of a majority stake in the Wella Business (see Note 3—Discontinued Operations). Following the sale, Coty deconsolidated the Wella Business as KKR owns approximately 60% of the separately managed business, and the Company owns the remaining 40%. Cash proceeds received for the sale of the 60% stake in Wella were $2,451.7 (less cash disposed of $65.5, resulted in net cash proceeds of $2,386.2). The transaction is subject to working capital adjustments that are pending resolution.

Coty utilized $2,015.5 of the net proceeds to pay down its Term Loans A and B on a pro rata basis and reserved $500.0 for reinvestment in the Company's business (see Note 12—Debt).

As a result of the sale of the majority interest in Wella, the Company determined that it no longer had a controlling interest in the Wella Business. The Company, therefore, deconsolidated its ownership of the Wella assets and liabilities and no longer reported the assets and liabilities of Wella in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020. The operations of Wella were consolidated in the results of the Company through the date of sale. The Company accounted for its 40% stake in the Wella Business under the fair value option (see Note 9—Equity Investments).

Younique

On August 27, 2019, the Company entered into a contribution and redemption agreement to transfer all of its membership interest in Foundation, which held the net assets of Younique, to an existing noncontrolling interest holder. On September 16, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed the sale of all of its membership interest in Foundation. Consideration received at the Closing Date consisted of $50.0 cash and a secured promissory note with a face value of $27.9, which has been paid. The initial estimate of the pre-tax gain of $84.5 was included in Gain on divestitures and sale of brand assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended December 31, 2019. During the fiscal year June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a final pre-tax gain of $111.5 resulting from the sale. The final pre-tax gain is included in (Gain) loss on divestitures and sale of brand assets in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020.

Younique’s operations are included within Other and its results of operations through the Closing Date are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended December 31, 2019.
