ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS Williamson-Dickie On October 2, 2017, VF acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Williamson-Dickie Mfg. Co. (“Williamson-Dickie”) for $800.7 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments. The purchase price was primarily funded with short-term borrowings. The purchase price decreased $2.3 million during the three months ended March 2018, related to working capital adjustments, resulting in a final purchase price of $798.4 million. Williamson-Dickie was a privately held company based in Ft. Worth, Texas, and was one of the largest companies in the workwear sector with a portfolio of brands including Dickies®, Workrite®, Walls®, Terra® and Kodiak®. The acquisition of Williamson-Dickie brings together complementary assets and capabilities, and creates a workwear business that serves an even broader set of consumers and industries around the world. For the six months ended September 2018, Williamson-Dickie contributed revenues of $471.9 million and net income of $33.3 million, including restructuring charges. Given the ongoing integration and change in operating nature of the acquired business, it is impracticable to determine the revenues or operating results contributed subsequent to September 2018. Williamson-Dickie contributed revenues of $233.1 million and net income of $4.9 million to VF in the three months ended March 2018, including restructuring charges. For the period from October 2, 2017 through December 30, 2017, Williamson-Dickie contributed revenues of $247.2 million and net income of $9.6 million to VF, including restructuring charges. Total transaction expenses for the Williamson-Dickie acquisition were $15.0 million, all of which were recognized in the year ended December 2017 in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income. On January 21, 2020, VF announced its decision to explore the divestiture of its Occupational Workwear business, which includes certain brands and businesses obtained as part of the Williamson-Dickie acquisition including Workrite®, Walls®, Terra®, Kodiak® and Work Authority®. The business also includes certain Dickies® occupational workwear products that have historically been sold through the business-to-business channel. During the three months ended March 2020, the Company determined the Occupational Workwear business met the held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria and expects to divest this business in the next twelve months. Accordingly, the Company has reported the results of these brands and businesses as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income and presented the related held-for-sale assets and liabilities as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The disclosures above do not reflect the discontinued operations presentation for the Occupational Workwear business and thus represent the historical amounts for the acquired Williamson-Dickie business. Refer to Note 4 for additional information on discontinued operations. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents historical consolidated information of VF as if the acquisition of Williamson-Dickie had occurred on January 3, 2016:
(In thousands, except per share amounts) |  | Year Ended December 2017 (unaudited)
Total revenues |  | $ | 12,475,116 |
Income from continuing operations |  | 763,563 |
Earnings per common share from continuing operations |  |
Basic |  | $ | 1.91 |
Diluted |  | 1.89 |
These pro forma amounts have been calculated after applying VF’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Williamson-Dickie to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets had been applied from January 3, 2016, with related tax effects. The pro forma amounts do not reflect the discontinued operations presentation for the Occupational Workwear business discussed above or the Jeans business that was subject to the spin-off completed in Fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 4 for additional information on discontinued operations. The pro forma financial information in the year ended December 2017 excludes $41.6 million of expense related to Williamson-Dickie’s executive compensation plans, which were terminated concurrent with the merger. Pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of VF’s operating results if the acquisition had been effected at the date indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results. Amounts do not include any marketing leverage, operating efficiencies or cost savings that VF believes are achievable. Icebreaker On April 3, 2018, VF acquired 100% of the stock of Icebreaker Holdings Limited ("Icebreaker") for NZ$274.4 million ($198.5 million) in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments. The purchase price was primarily funded with short-term borrowings. The purchase price decreased NZ$1.4 million ($0.9 million) during the year ended March 2019, related to working capital adjustments, resulting in a final purchase price of NZ$273.0 million ($197.6 million). Icebreaker was a privately held company based in Auckland, New Zealand. Icebreaker®, the primary brand, specializes in high-performance apparel based on natural fibers, including Merino wool, plant-based fibers and recycled fibers. It is an ideal complement to VF's Smartwool® brand, which also features Merino wool in its clothing and accessories. Together, the Smartwool® and Icebreaker® brands position VF as a global leader in the Merino wool and natural fiber categories. For the year ended March 2019, Icebreaker contributed revenues of $174.2 million, representing 1.7% of VF's total revenue for the period. Icebreaker contributed net income of $14.6 million during the year ended March 2019, representing 1.7% of VF's income from continuing operations in the period. Total transaction expenses for the Icebreaker acquisition of $7.4 million were recognized in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income, of which $4.1 million, $1.4 million and $1.9 million was recognized during the year ended March 2019, the three months ended March 2018 and the year ended December 2017, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized a $9.9 million gain on derivatives used to hedge the purchase price of Icebreaker in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income, of which $0.3 million, $4.3 million and $5.3 million was recognized during the year ended March 2019, the three months ended March 2018 and the year ended December 2017, respectively. Pro forma results of operations of the Company would not be materially different as a result of the Icebreaker acquisition and therefore are not presented. Altra On June 1, 2018, VF acquired 100% of the stock of Icon-Altra LLC, plus certain assets in Europe ("Altra"). The purchase price was $131.7 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments, and was primarily funded with short-term borrowings. The purchase price decreased $0.1 million during the year ended March 2019, related to working capital adjustments, resulting in a final purchase price of $131.6 million. Altra®, the primary brand, is an athletic and performance-based lifestyle footwear brand. Altra provides VF with a unique and differentiated technical footwear brand and a capability that, when applied across VF's footwear platforms, will serve as a catalyst for growth. Altra contributed revenues of $50.2 million and net income of $0.8 million during the year ended March 2019. Total transaction expenses for the Altra acquisition were $2.3 million, all of which were recognized in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income during the year ended March 2019. Pro forma results of operations of the Company would not be materially different as a result of the Altra acquisition and therefore are not presented.
