Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Business Combinations | Note 6. Business Combinations Merger with Topgolf International, Inc. On March 8, 2021, the Company completed its merger with Topgolf, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 27, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”). Topgolf is a leading technology-enabled golf entertainment business, with an innovative platform that comprises its state-of-the-art open-air golf and entertainment venues, Toptracer ball-tracking technology and innovative media platform with a differentiated position in eSports. The Company will benefit from a compelling family of brands with reach across multiple channels including retail, venues, e-commerce and digital communities. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the closing of the merger, the Company issued approximately 89,776,000 unrestricted and fully vested shares of its common stock to the stockholders of Topgolf (excluding approximately 12,330,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that would have been allocated to the Company in the merger based on the shares of Topgolf held by the Company) for 100% of the outstanding equity of Topgolf, at an exchange ratio based on an equity value of Topgolf of $1,987,000,000 (or $1,748,000,000 excluding Topgolf shares that were held by the Company) and a price per share of the Company's common stock fixed at $19.40 per share (the “Callaway Share Price”). The actual purchase consideration upon the closing of the merger of $3,014,174,000 (or $2,650,201,000 excluding Topgolf shares that were held by the Company) was based on the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued, multiplied by the closing price of $29.52 of the Company's common stock on March 8, 2021. Additionally, the Company converted certain stock options previously held by former equity holders of Topgolf into options to purchase a number of shares of Callaway common stock, and certain outstanding restricted stock awards of Topgolf, into approximately 188,000 shares of Callaway common stock (together, the "replacement awards"). The Company included $33,051,000 in the consideration transferred in the merger for these replacement awards, which represents the fair value of the vested portion the replacement awards. The unvested portion of these replacement awards related to future services that will be rendered in the post-combination period will be recognized as compensation expense over the remaining vesting period (see Note 16). In addition, the Company converted issued and outstanding warrants to purchase certain preferred shares of Topgolf into a warrant to purchase a number of shares of Callaway common stock. The fair value of the consideration transferred in the merger related to these warrants totaled $1,625,000. The purchase consideration, together with the fair value of the consideration transferred for outstanding stock awards and warrants totaled $3,048,850,000. The Company previously held approximately 14.3% of Topgolf's outstanding shares. Immediately following the closing of the merger, the Company's stockholders as of immediately prior to the merger owned approximately 51.3% of the outstanding shares of the combined company, and former Topgolf stockholders, other than Callaway, owned approximately 48.7% of the outstanding shares of the combined company. The Company allocated the purchase price to the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Identifiable intangible assets include the Topgolf trade name, developed technology, Topgolf's investment in Full Swing Golf Holdings, Inc. ("Full Swing"), customer relationships and liquor licenses. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets and liabilities was allocated to goodwill. The Company determined the preliminary estimated fair values after review and consideration of relevant information as of the acquisition date, including discounted cash flows, quoted market prices and estimates made by management. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary based on management's estimates and assumptions and may be subject to change as additional information is received and certain tax returns are finalized. The Company expects to finalize the valuation as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date. The allocation of the purchase price presented below was based on management's preliminary estimate of the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities using valuation techniques including income, cost and market approaches. These valuation techniques incorporate the use of expected future revenues, cash flows and growth rates as well as estimated discount rates. Current and noncurrent assets and liabilities are valued at historical carrying values, which approximates fair value, except as described below. The trade name was valued under the royalty savings income approach method, which is equal to the present value of the after-tax royalty savings attributable to owning the trade name as opposed to paying a third party for its use. For this valuation the Company used a royalty rate of 2.5%, which is reflective of royalty rates paid in market transactions, and a discount rate of 7.0% to 8.5% on the future cash flows generated by the net after-tax savings. The fair value of the Topgolf hitting bays, Toptracer ball-tracking technology and the WGT digital game was based on a combination of valuation methodologies, including the residual net income approach, royalty savings income approach and the cost approach. The Company utilized the options pricing model and revenue multiples of comparable companies to determine the fair value of the investment in Full Swing. Customer relationships and liquor licenses were valued using the replacement cost method. The Company amortizes the fair value of the finite-lived intangibles, which include technology and customer relationships, over a period ranging between one and ten years. The estimated fair value of operating leases was determined based on current market terms, which resulted in a net unfavorable adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Property, plant and equipment was valued based on its replacement cost, which resulted in an estimated step-up in value. The estimated fair value of the debt assumed was based on a market credit rating, interest rates and repayment terms, which resulted in an overall decrease in value. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an estimate related to the fair value assessment of ROU assets for the acquired operating and financing leases in addition to deemed landlord financed properties. In this assessment, the Company considered certain critical terms, including extension periods and incremental borrowing rates. This assessment resulted in significant adjustments to the right-of-use and deemed landlord financed assets and the corresponding lease obligations and deemed landlord financed liabilities. As of December 31, 2021, the Company is in the process of finalizing its assessment on certain leases and certain deferred tax related items. Upon the completion of these assessments, the Company may adjust the preliminary purchase price allocation accordingly. After assessing the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company recorded goodwill of $1,903,883,000, of which the Company attributed $1,340,663,000 to the future revenues and growth potential of the Topgolf business, and $563,220,000 to the synergies the Company anticipates from leveraging the Topgolf business to expand its golf equipment and apparel businesses. For the operating segment allocation of goodwill, see Note 9. As a non-taxable stock acquisition, the Company does not expect the value attributable to the acquired intangibles and goodwill to be tax deductible. In connection with the merger, during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized transaction costs of approximately $20,416,000 and $8,498,000, respectively, consisting primarily of advisor, legal, valuation and accounting fees. Transaction costs were recorded in selling, general & administrative expenses.

Supplemental Pro-Forma Information (Unaudited) The following table presents supplemental pro-forma information for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 as if the merger with Topgolf had occurred on January 1, 2020. These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company's accounting policies and are based upon currently available information. For this analysis, the Company assumed that certain gains and costs associated with the merger were recognized as of January 1, 2020, including a gain of $252,531,000 recognized on the Company's pre-acquisition investment in Topgolf, acquisition costs of $28,914,000, the amortization of estimated intangible assets and other fair value adjustments, as well as the tax effect on those costs, and a valuation allowance on certain acquired net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards (see Note 14). Pre-acquisition net revenue and net income (loss) amounts for Topgolf were derived from the books and records of Topgolf prepared prior to the acquisition and are presented for informational purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of future operations or of the results that would have occurred had the acquisition taken place as of the dates noted below.

Supplemental Information of Operating Results For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company's consolidated statements of operations included net revenues related to Topgolf of $1,087,671,000 and a net loss of $29,603,000 for the period beginning March 8, 2021 through January 2, 2022. Acquisition of JW Stargazer Holding GmbH In January 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of JW Stargazer Holding GmbH, the owner of the international, premium outdoor apparel, gear and accessories brand, Jack Wolfskin, for €457,394,000 (including cash acquired of €50,984,000) or approximately $521,201,000 (including cash acquired of $58,096,000). The Company financed the acquisition with a Term Loan B facility in the aggregate principal amount of $480,000,000 (see Note 7). This acquisition is expected to further enhance the Company's lifestyle category and provide a platform for future growth in the active outdoor and urban outdoor categories. The financial results of JW Stargazer Holding GmbH have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The Company allocated the purchase price to the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Valuations of acquired intangible assets and inventory were subject to fair value measurements that were based primarily on significant inputs not observable in the market, and thus represent Level 3 measurements (see Note 19). The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets and liabilities was allocated to goodwill. The Company recognized goodwill in the amount of $150,180,000 arising from the acquisition, which consists largely of expected synergies from combining the operations of the Company and Jack Wolfskin. As a non-taxable stock acquisition, the value attributable to the acquired intangible assets and goodwill are not tax deductible, and accordingly, the Company recognized a net deferred tax liability of $77,079,000, including tax reserves of $8,281,000 on certain deferred tax assets. All of the goodwill related to the acquisition was assigned to the Apparel, Gear and Other operating segment. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company performed a quantitative assessment of goodwill for its reporting units in response to the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the goodwill associated with the Jack Wolfskin reporting unit was impaired, in addition to the Jack Wolfskin trade name (see Note 9). In connection with the acquisition, during the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized transaction costs of approximately $9,987,000, of which $6,326,000 was recognized in general and administrative expenses during the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. The remaining $3,661,000 was recognized in general and administrative expenses during 2018. In addition, the Company recorded a loss of $3,215,000 in other income (expense) in the first quarter of 2019 upon the settlement of a foreign currency forward contract to mitigate the risk of foreign currency fluctuations on the purchase price, which was denominated in Euros (EUR).
