 ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Acquisition of Warnaco

The Company acquired on February 13, 2013 all of the outstanding equity interests in Warnaco. The results of Warnaco’s operations since that date are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Warnaco designs, sources, markets and distributes a broad line of intimate apparel, underwear, jeanswear and swim products worldwide. Warnaco’s products are sold under the Calvin Klein, Speedo, Warner’s and Olga brand names and were also previously sold under the Chaps brand name. Ralph Lauren Corporation reacquired the Chaps license effective contemporaneously with the Company’s acquisition of Warnaco.

The Warnaco acquisition provided the Company with complete direct global control of the Calvin Klein brand image and commercial decisions for the two largest Calvin Klein apparel categories — jeanswear and underwear. In addition, the Company believes the acquisition takes advantage of its and Warnaco’s complementary geographic platforms. Warnaco’s operations in Asia and Latin America should enhance the Company’s opportunities in those high-growth regions, and the Company has the ability to leverage its expertise and infrastructure in North America and Europe to enhance the growth and profitability of the Calvin Klein Jeans and Calvin Klein Underwear businesses in those regions.

Fair Value of the Acquisition Consideration

The acquisition date fair value of the acquisition consideration paid at closing totaled $3,137,056, which consisted of the following:

Cash
 
$
2,179,980

Common stock (7,674 shares, par value $1.00 per share)
 
926,452

Warnaco employee replacement stock awards
 
39,752

Elimination of pre-acquisition liability to Warnaco
 
(9,128
)
Total fair value of the acquisition consideration
 
$
3,137,056


The fair value of the 7,674 common shares issued was equal to the aggregate value of the shares at the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on February 12, 2013, the day prior to the closing. The value of the replacement stock awards was determined by multiplying the estimated fair value of the Warnaco awards outstanding at the time of the acquisition, reduced by an estimated value of awards to be forfeited, by the proportionate amount of the vesting period that had lapsed as of the acquisition date. Also included in the acquisition consideration was the elimination of a $9,128 pre-acquisition liability to Warnaco.

The Company funded the cash portion and related costs of the Warnaco acquisition, repaid all outstanding borrowings under its previously outstanding senior secured credit facilities and repaid all of Warnaco’s previously outstanding long-term debt with the net proceeds of (i) the issuance of $700,000 of 4 1/2% senior notes due 2022; and (ii) the borrowing of $3,075,000 of term loans under new senior secured credit facilities.

Please see Note 4, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” Note 7, “Debt,” Note 12, “Stockholders’ Equity,” and Note 13, “Stock-Based Compensation,” for a further discussion of these aspects of the acquisition.

The Company incurred certain pre-tax costs directly associated with the acquisition, including short-lived non-cash valuation adjustments and amortization, totaling approximately $170,000, of which approximately $43,000 was recorded in 2012 and approximately $127,000 was recorded during 2013. Please see Note 16, “Activity Exit Costs,” for a discussion of restructuring costs incurred during 2013 associated with the acquisition.

The operations acquired with Warnaco had total revenue of $2,085,135 and a net loss, after non-cash valuation adjustments and amortization and integration costs, of $(45,254) for the period from the date of acquisition through February 2, 2014. These amounts are included in the Company’s results of operations for the year then ended.

Pro Forma Impact of the Transaction

The following table presents the Company’s pro forma consolidated results of operations for the year ended February 2, 2014 and February 3, 2013, as if the acquisition and the related financing transactions had occurred on January 30, 2012 (the first day of its fiscal year ended February 3, 2013) instead of on February 13, 2013. The pro forma results were calculated applying the Company’s accounting policies and reflect (i) the impact on revenue, cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses resulting from the elimination of intercompany transactions; (ii) the impact on depreciation and amortization expense based on fair value adjustments to Warnaco’s property, plant and equipment and intangible assets recorded in connection with the acquisition; (iii) the impact on interest expense resulting from changes to the Company’s capital structure in connection with the acquisition; (iv) the impact on cost of goods sold resulting from acquisition date adjustments to the fair value of inventory; (v) the elimination of transaction costs related to the acquisition that were included in the Company’s results of operations for the years ended February 2, 2014 and February 3, 2013; and (vi) the tax effects of the above adjustments. The pro forma results do not include any realized or anticipated cost synergies or other effects of the integration of Warnaco. Accordingly, such pro forma amounts are not indicative of the results that actually would have occurred had the acquisition been completed on January 30, 2012, nor are they indicative of the future operating results of the combined company.

The Company finalized the purchase price allocation during the fourth quarter of 2013.

During the process of finalizing the purchase price allocation in the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company received additional information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the Warnaco acquisition date. As a result of the receipt of new information, which was included in the final valuation report received from a third-party valuation firm, and considering the results of that report, the Company estimated the fair value of the order backlog acquired as part of the Warnaco acquisition to be $24,100 lower than the estimated provisional amount. As a result of this adjustment to fair value, the carrying amount of the order backlog (which was being amortized principally over six months) was retrospectively decreased as of February 13, 2013, with a corresponding increase to goodwill and other intangible assets (net of related deferred taxes), and the related order backlog amortization expense for the first and second quarters of 2013 was reduced. The Company recorded these measurement period adjustments in the fourth quarter of 2013 and applied the adjustments retrospectively in accordance with FASB guidance for business combinations. The measurement period adjustments were included in the results of the Calvin Klein International segment. Please see the section entitled “Selected Quarterly Financial Data - Unaudited” on pages F-57 and F-58 for the impacts of these adjustments on first and second quarter 2013 net income and earnings per share.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $1,513,172, which was assigned to the Company’s Calvin Klein North America, Calvin Klein International, Tommy Hilfiger North America, Tommy Hilfiger International, Heritage Brands Wholesale and Heritage Brands Retail segments in the amounts of $456,032, $658,575, $5,900, $296,500, $84,265, and $11,900 respectively. In accordance with FASB guidance, the goodwill acquired in the Warnaco acquisition was assigned as of the acquisition date to the Company’s reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. For those reporting units that had not been assigned any of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed in the acquisition, the amount of goodwill assigned was determined by calculating the estimated fair value of such reporting units before the acquisition and their estimated fair values after the acquisition. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
    
The Company also recorded other intangible assets of $1,628,300, which included reacquired license rights of $593,300, order backlog of $73,000 and customer relationships of $149,800, which are all amortizable, as well as tradenames of $604,600 and perpetual license rights of $207,600, which have indefinite lives.

Sale of Chaps Sportswear Assets

Contemporaneously with the Company’s acquisition of Warnaco, Ralph Lauren Corporation reacquired the Chaps license. The Chaps sportswear business was previously operated by Warnaco under such license. In connection with this transaction, the Company sold all of the assets of the Chaps sportswear business, which consisted principally of inventory, to Ralph Lauren Corporation for gross proceeds of $18,278.

Sale of Bass Business

On November 4, 2013, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of its G.H. Bass & Co. (“Bass”) business. The decision to sell these assets was based on the Company’s strategy to drive growth through its higher-margin Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger businesses.

The Company completed the sale of these assets for gross proceeds of $49,236 and recorded a loss of $15,997, which represents the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the proceeds received, plus costs to sell. This loss is principally included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Income Statements for the year ended February 2, 2014.

A small number of the Company’s Bass stores were excluded from the sale and were deemed to be impaired as of the end of the third quarter of 2013. The Company recorded a loss of $1,161 related to the impaired stores. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for a further discussion. In addition, the Company recorded a gain of $3,255 as a result of writing off certain liabilities in connection with the transaction. The Company also recognized costs related to severance and termination benefits for certain Bass employees, which totaled $1,952. The above-mentioned items are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Income Statements for the year ended February 2, 2014 and are included in the Heritage Brands Retail segment.

In connection with the sale, the Company guaranteed lease payments for substantially all Bass retail stores included in the sale. The estimated fair value of these guarantee obligations at the time of the sale was $4,373, which was recorded in the Heritage Brands Retail segment and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Income Statements for the year ended February 2, 2014 and accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as of February 2, 2014. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” and Note 20, “Guarantees,” for a further discussion.

In connection with the items outlined above, the Company recorded a net pre-tax loss of $20,228 during 2013.

Acquisition of Russia Franchisee

During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company acquired three Tommy Hilfiger stores in Russia from a former Tommy Hilfiger franchisee. The Company paid $6,033 as consideration for this transaction. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination.

Acquisition of Netherlands Franchisee

During the third quarter of 2012, the Company acquired from a former Tommy Hilfiger franchisee in the Netherlands 100% of the share capital of ten affiliated companies, which operate 13 Tommy Hilfiger stores in the Netherlands. The Company paid $13,104 as consideration for this transaction, which was accounted for as a business combination.

Reacquisition of Tommy Hilfiger Tailored Apparel License

During 2011, the Company entered into agreements to reacquire from a licensee, prior to the expiration of the license, the rights to distribute Tommy Hilfiger brand tailored apparel in Europe and acquire an outlet store from the licensee. The transfer of the rights and store ownership was effective December 31, 2012. Under these agreements, the Company made a payment of $9,641 to the licensee during the fourth quarter of 2011 and an additional payment of $24,752 to the licensee during the fourth quarter of 2012. This reacquisition was accounted for as a business combination.

Reacquisition of Perpetually Licensed Rights for Tommy Hilfiger in India

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company reacquired the rights in India to the Tommy Hilfiger trademarks that had been subject to a perpetual license previously granted to GVM International Limited (“GVM”). The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The Company paid $25,000 as consideration for this transaction. In addition, the Company is required to make annual contingent purchase price payments into 2016 (or, under certain circumstances, into 2017) based on a percentage of annual sales in excess of an agreed upon threshold of Tommy Hilfiger products in India following the acquisition date. Such payments are subject to a $25,000 aggregate maximum and are due within 60 days following each one-year period. The Company made contingent annual purchase price payments of $429 and $185 during 2013 and 2012, respectively. The estimated fair value of future payments as of February 2, 2014 is $4,237. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for a further discussion.

In connection with the transaction, the Company recorded an expense of $20,709 during the third quarter of 2011 due to the settlement of an unfavorable contract as a result of a pre-existing relationship with the licensee, as the license provided favorable terms to the licensee. Such expense was included within selling, general and administrative expenses.
