UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

In December 2011, the Company and Burberry began discussions regarding the potential establishment of a new operating structure for the Burberry fragrance and beauty business. On July 16, 2012, while discussions were still underway, Burberry exercised its option to buy out the license rights effective December 31, 2012. On July 26, 2012, discussions with Burberry on the creation of a new operating model were discontinued as we were unable to agree on final terms. On October 11, 2012 the Company and Burberry entered into a transition agreement in order to facilitate a smooth transition. The transition agreement provides for an extension of certain license rights and obligations for an additional three months period ending on March 31, 2013. The Company will continue to operate certain aspects of the business for the brand including product development, testing, and distribution. The transition agreement also provides for non-exclusivity for manufacturing, a cap on sales of Burberry products, a reduced advertising requirement and no minimum royalty amounts.

 

The exit payment of €181 million (approximately $237 million at current exchange rates) was made by Burberry to the Company on December 21, 2012. The Company has determined that the buy out of the license was consummated as of December 31, 2012 and therefore the effect of the transition agreement will be recorded at that date. The resulting gain has not been included in the consolidated statements of income since it is nonrecurring.

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management of the Company based upon the historical financial statements of the Company and include pro forma adjustments to account for Burberry’s buy out of its license. Pro forma consolidated balance sheet adjustments are translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange on September 30, 2012, and pro forma consolidated income statement adjustments are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the respective periods.

 

The historical financial information of the Company has been derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet was prepared as if the buy out occurred as of September 30, 2012. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012, were prepared as if the buy out occurred as of the 1st day of each presented period. The pro forma adjustments are based on factually supportable available information.

 

The unaudited pro forma statements presented have been provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the financial position or results of operations of the Company would have been had the buy out of the license rights occurred on the dates noted above, or to project the results of operations or financial position of the Company for any future periods. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments to the unaudited pro forma financial information have been made.

2. Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet

 

(a)To record the cash received from Burberry representing the exit payment of $234 million as well as the estimated net cash proceeds of $19.5 million resulting from the execution of the transition agreement (i.e. $22.1 million for the sale of inventories and other tangible assets less $2.6 million in other negotiated settlements). No adjustments have been made for accounts receivable aggregating approximately $89 million and accounts payable and accrued expenses aggregating approximately $55 million all relating to the Burberry brand as of September 30, 2012, as they are expected to be collected and paid for in the ordinary course of business. In addition, no adjustment has been made for additional inventories aggregating approximately $72 million related to the Burberry brand as of September 30, 2012, as the inventories are expected to be sold in the ordinary course of business.

  

(b)To eliminate the net book value of inventories expected to be sold to Burberry, assuming the transaction occurred on September 30, 2012.

 

(c)To eliminate the net book value of equipment expected to be sold to Burberry or written-off, assuming the transaction occurred on September 30, 2012.

 

(d)To eliminate the net book value of the licenses, assuming the transaction occurred on September 30, 2012.

 

(e)To record liability for employee profit sharing resulting from gain on buy out as required pursuant to the laws of France.

 

(f)To record the tax liability as a result or the effect of (a), (c) and (e) above.

 

(g)To eliminate the tax liability as a result of effect of (d) above.

 

(h)To record the estimated pro forma gain on the transaction including the portion of the gain allocable to the noncontrolling interest. The actual gain on the transaction is subject to adjustments.

 

3. Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income

 

(a)To eliminate the revenues and expenses which are directly related to Burberry brand activities.

 

(b)To adjust provision for income taxes applying intra-period allocation rules for income taxes.

 

(c)To allocate the net income effect of pro forma adjustments which are attributable to the noncontrolling interest.
