21. | Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates and Variable Interest Entities
Parkdale America, LLC In June 1997, the Company and Parkdale Mills, Inc. (“Mills”) entered into a Contribution Agreement that set forth the terms and conditions by which the two companies contributed all of the assets of their spun cotton yarn operations utilizing open-end and air-jet spinning technologies to create Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”). In exchange for its contribution, the Company received a 34% ownership interest in PAL, which is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Effective January 1, 2012, Mills’ interest in PAL was assigned to Parkdale Incorporated. PAL is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes. PAL is a producer of cotton and synthetic yarns for sale to the textile industry and apparel market, both foreign and domestic. PAL has 16 manufacturing facilities located primarily in the southeast region of the U.S. and in Mexico. According to its most recently issued audited financial statements, PAL’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 76% of total revenues and 78% of total gross accounts receivable outstanding. As PAL’s fiscal year end is the Saturday nearest to December 31 and its results are considered significant, the Company files an amendment to each Annual Report on Form 10-K on or before 90 days subsequent to PAL’s fiscal year end to provide PAL’s audited financial statements for PAL’s most recent fiscal year. The Company filed an amendment to its 2014 Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2014 on April 2, 2015 to provide PAL’s audited financial statements for PAL’s fiscal year ended January 3, 2015. The Company expects to file an amendment to its upcoming Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2015 on or before April 1, 2016 to provide PAL’s audited financial statements for PAL’s fiscal year ending January 2, 2016. The federal government maintains a program providing economic adjustment assistance to domestic users of upland cotton (the “EAP program”). The EAP program offers a subsidy for cotton consumed in domestic production, and the subsidy is paid the month after the eligible cotton is consumed. The subsidy must be used within eighteen months after the marketing year in which it is earned to purchase qualifying capital expenditures in the U.S. for production of goods from upland cotton. The marketing year is from August 1 to July 31. The program provides a subsidy of up to three cents per pound. In February 2014, the federal government extended the EAP program for five years. The cotton subsidy will remain at three cents per pound for the life of the program. PAL recognizes its share of income for the cotton subsidy when the cotton has been consumed and the qualifying assets have been acquired, with an appropriate allocation methodology considering the dual criteria of the subsidy. PAL is subject to price risk related to anticipated fixed-price yarn sales. To protect the gross margin of these sales, PAL may enter into cotton futures to manage changes in raw material prices in order to protect the gross margin of fixed-priced yarn sales. The derivative instruments used are listed and traded on an exchange and are thus valued using quoted prices classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As of March 2015, PAL had no futures contracts designated as cash flow hedges. As of March 29, 2015, the Company’s investment in PAL was $105,962 and is reflected within investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The reconciliation between the Company’s share of the underlying equity of PAL and its investment is as follows:
Underlying equity as of March 29, 2015 |  | $ | 124,317 |
Initial excess capital contributions |  |  | 53,363 |
Impairment charge recorded by the Company in 2007 |  |  | (74,106 | )
Anti-trust lawsuit against PAL in which the Company did not participate |  |  | 2,652 |
EAP adjustments |  |  | (264 | )
Investment as of March 29, 2015 |  | $ | 105,962 |
On August 28, 2014, PAL acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest in a yarn manufacturer based in Mexico in which PAL was historically a 50% member. The acquisition increases PAL’s regional manufacturing capacity and expands its product offerings and customer base. PAL accounted for the transaction as a business combination under the acquisition method, recognizing the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company and PAL concluded that the acquisition did not represent a material business combination. PAL recognized an after-tax gain of $4,430 and recorded acquired net assets of $23,644. On February 27, 2015, PAL purchased two manufacturing facilities, plus inventory, for approximately $13,000 cash, and entered into a yarn supply agreement with the seller. PAL has accounted for the transaction as a business combination under the acquisition method, recognizing the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective provisional fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company and PAL concluded that the acquisition did not represent a material business combination. PAL has recognized provisional amounts in its initial accounting for the acquisition for all identified assets and liabilities. The Company and PAL will continue to review the acquisition accounting during the measurement period, and if new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date identifies adjustments to the assets or liabilities initially recognized, as well as any additional assets or liabilities that existed at the acquisition date, the acquisition accounting will be revised to reflect the resulting adjustments to the provisional amounts. The acquisition accounting is incomplete, primarily pending asset valuations. U.N.F. Industries, Ltd. In September 2000, the Company and Nilit Ltd. (“Nilit”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”), for the purpose of operating nylon extrusion assets to manufacture nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNF are provided by Nilit under separate supply and services agreements. UNF’s fiscal year end is December 31 and it is a registered Israeli private company located in Migdal Ha-Emek, Israel. UNF America, LLC In October 2009, the Company and Nilit America Inc. (“Nilit America”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, UNF America LLC (“UNF America”), for the purpose of operating a nylon extrusion facility which manufactures nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNF America are provided by Nilit America under separate supply and services agreements. UNF America’s fiscal year end is December 31 and it is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes located in Ridgeway, Virginia. In conjunction with the formation of UNF America, the Company entered into a supply agreement with UNF and UNF America whereby the Company agreed to purchase all of its first quality nylon POY requirements for texturing (subject to certain exceptions) from either UNF or UNF America. The agreement has no stated minimum purchase quantities and pricing is negotiated every six months, based on market rates. As of March 29, 2015, the Company’s open purchase orders related to this agreement were $4,594. The Company’s raw material purchases under this supply agreement consist of the following:
|  | For the Nine Months Ended |
|  | March 29, 201 5 |  |  | March 30, 201 4 |
UNF |  | $ | 2,578 |  |  | $ | 8,177 |
UNF America |  |  | 21,798 |  |  |  | 18,065 |
Total |  | $ | 24,376 |  |  | $ | 26,242 |
As of March 29, 2015 and June 29, 2014, the Company had combined accounts payable due to UNF and UNF America of $3,658 and $3,966, respectively. The Company has determined that UNF and UNF America are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and has also determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of these entities, based on the terms of the supply agreement. As a result, these entities should be consolidated in the Company’s financial results. As the Company purchases substantially all of the output from the two entities, the two entities’ balance sheets constitute 3% or less of the Company’s current assets, total assets and total liabilities, and such balances are not expected to comprise a larger portion in the future, the Company has not included the accounts of UNF and UNF America in its consolidated financial statements. As of March 29, 2015, the Company’s combined investments in UNF and UNF America were $4,192 and are shown within investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The financial results of UNF and UNF America are included in the Company’s financial statements with a one month lag, using the equity method of accounting and with intercompany profits eliminated in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy. Other than the supply agreement discussed above, the Company does not provide any other commitments or guarantees related to either UNF or UNF America. Condensed balance sheet and income statement information for the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates is presented in the following tables. As PAL is defined as significant, its information is separately disclosed. For the nine months ended March 29, 2015, PAL’s corresponding fiscal period consisted of 40 weeks.
