Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation VF Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, collectively known as “VF” or “the Company”) uses a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31 of each year. For presentation purposes herein, all references to periods ended June 2017, December 2016 and June 2016 relate to the fiscal periods ended on July 1, 2017, December 31, 2016 and July 2, 2016, respectively. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company approved a change in fiscal year end to the Saturday closest to March 31 from the Saturday closest to December 31. Accordingly, the Company’s 2017 fiscal year will end as planned on December 30, 2017, followed by a three-month transition period from December 31, 2017 through March 31, 2018. The Company’s next fiscal year will run from April 1, 2018 through March 30, 2019 (“fiscal 2019”). On April 28, 2017, VF completed the sale of its Licensed Sports Group (“LSG”) business. As a result, VF has reported the operating results for this business in the loss from discontinued operations, net of tax line in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented. In addition, the related assets and liabilities have been reported as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets through the date of sale. In conjunction with the LSG divestiture, VF executed its plan to entirely exit the licensing business and hold the assets of the JanSport® brand collegiate licensing business for sale. During the first quarter of 2017, VF began to separately report the results of our JanSport® brand collegiate business as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Income, and present the related assets as held-for-sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These changes have been applied for all periods presented. In addition, VF completed the sale of its Contemporary Brands coalition on August 26, 2016, and has reported the operating results for this business in the loss from discontinued operations, net of tax line in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 2016. The related assets and liabilities have been reported as current assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 2016. Unless otherwise noted, discussion within these notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. Refer to Note B for additional information on discontinued operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Similarly, the December 2016 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of VF for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 30, 2017. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in VF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”).
