Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Performance Guarantee In connection with the sales of certain businesses, the Company has assigned its rights and obligations under a real estate lease to JAB Partners LLP. The remaining term of this lease is approximately nine years. While the Company is no longer the primary obligor under this lease, the lessor has not completely released the Company from its obligation, and holds it secondarily liable in the event that the assignee defaults on the lease. The maximum potential future payments that the Company could be required to make, if the assignee was to default as of June 30, 2022, would be approximately $4.5. The Company has assessed the probability of default by the assignee and has determined it to be remote. Equity Transfer Agreement In connection with the Award granted to the Company’s CEO on June 30, 2021, Cottage Holdco B.V. has agreed to transfer to her (either directly or through contributing to the Company) one-half of the total number of shares of Common Stock owed to her if and when the Award vests. See Note 24—Share-Based Compensation Plans for more information on the Award. Relationship with KKR As noted in Note 23—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock, in fiscal 2020 KKR Aggregator purchased Series B Preferred Stock. This preferred stock conveyed to KKR Aggregator the right to designate two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors and voting rights on an as-converted basis. On November 16, 2020, KKR Aggregator and affiliated investment funds agreed to sell 146,057 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to HFS Holdings S.à r.l, a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg that is beneficially owned by Peter Harf, a director of the Company. The transaction, which was subject to customary closing conditions, closed on August 27, 2021. In June of 2020, KKR Bidco and Coty entered into a separate definitive agreement regarding a strategic transaction (“Wella Transaction”) for the sale of the Company’s Professional and Retail Hair business, which was completed on November 30, 2020. Refer to Note 23—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock for the definitive agreement entered into with KKR that closed on October 20, 2021. On September 10, 2021, KKR Aggregator converted a portion of its Series B Preferred Stock into Class A common stock of the Company and completed a secondary public offering of the converted shares of Class A common stock. Refer to Note 23—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock. On October 20, 2021, the Company completed the sale of a 9.4% stake in Wella to KKR Aggregator in the First Exchange. On November 10, 2021, KKR Aggregator converted 123,219 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and $1.2 of unpaid dividends into 19,944,701 shares of Class A common stock. Immediately after the conversion, KKR Aggregator completed a sale of 19,944,701 shares of Class A common stock. On November 30, 2021, Coty completed the sale of an additional 4.7% stake in Wella to KKR Aggregator in the Second Exchange, reducing the Company’s total shareholding in the Wella Company to 25.9%. Refer to Note 23—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock. Following the Second Exchange, KKR no longer holds any preferred stock of the Company and no longer has the right to designate any directors to the Company's Board of Directors. During fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, fees of $0.0, $7.6 and $25.5, respectively, were incurred with KKR in connection with the initial and second closings of the Series B Preferred Stock; these fees reduced the carrying value of the stock. The Company also entered into agreements with KKR for potential consulting and advisory services. No fees were incurred under such agreements in fiscal years 2022, 2021 or 2020. From time to time, certain funds held by KKR may hold the Company’s Senior Secured and Unsecured Notes (as defined in Note 15—Debt). These funds may receive principal and interest payments on the same terms as other investors in the Company’s Senior Secured and Unsecured Notes. Wella As of June 30, 2022, Coty owns 25.9% of the Wella Company as an equity investment and performs certain services to Wella. Refer to Note 13—Equity Investments. In connection with the sale of the Wella Business, the Company and Wella entered into a Transitional Services Agreement (“TSA”). Subject to the terms of this TSA, the Company will perform services for Wella in exchange for related service fees. Such services include billing and collecting from Wella customers, certain logistics and warehouse services, as well as other administrative and systems support. The Company and Wella have mutually agreed to end the contracted TSA services on January 31, 2022. The Company and Wella have also entered into other manufacturing and distribution arrangements to facilitate the Wella Business transition in the U.S. and Brazil. TSA fees and other fees earned were $87.5 and $6.7, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2022 and $86.6 and $3.4, respectively for the seven months ended June 30, 2021. The TSA fees are principally invoiced on a cost plus basis. The TSA fees and other fees were included in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Cost of sales, respectively, in the Company's Statement of Operations. As of June 30, 2022, accounts receivable from and accounts payable to Wella of $70.2 and $4.7, respectively, were included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, respectively, in the Company's Balance Sheets. Additionally, as of June 30, 2022, the Company has accrued $72.3 related to long-term payables due to Wella included in Other noncurrent liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. In accordance with the separation agreement with Wella, Coty shall retain and be solely responsible for any amounts payable to former Coty employees transferred to Wella (“Wella employees”), who participated in the Coty Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Wella employees will continue to participate and vest on the current terms for the remaining vesting period after the separation. As such, Coty will continue to recognize the share-based compensation expense for Wella employees until the existing equity awards reach their vesting date. For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, Coty recorded $0.7 and $2.3 of share-based compensation expense related to Wella employees, which was presented as part of Other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has certain sublease arrangements with Wella after the sale. For the year ended June 30, 2022 and the seven months June 30, 2021, the Company reported sublease income of $13.3 and $9.1 from Wella. Orveda The disinterested members of the Board reviewed and approved the entry into a license agreement with Orveda, an ultra-premium skincare brand co-founded by Coty’s CEO, Sue Nabi. Ms. Nabi has no continuing formal role at Orveda or economic interest in Orveda as a result of divesting her interests which was settled in cash in December 2021; however her business partner and co-founder, Nicolas Vu, is the sole owner and CEO of Orveda, and Mr. Vu also provides consulting services, related to the skincare category and Orveda positioning, to Coty under the terms of a separate agreement. The initial term of the Orveda license agreement is five years, with two five-year automatic renewals subject to the achievement of certain net revenue milestones. The principal terms of the license agreement are consistent with other Coty prestige licenses and the Board determined that the terms were no more favorable than to an unaffiliated third party. Consulting Services and Other Arrangements The Company had engaged certain affiliates of JAB to provide us with marketing technology services on customary market terms. As of June 30, 2020, these arrangements were no longer in effect. In addition, the Company’s former subsidiary, Beamly, entered into service agreements with affiliates of JAB for the provision of digital media services on customary market terms. Fees under each of these arrangements totaled less than $1.0 in fiscal 2020. Beatrice Ballini, a director, serves as a senior member of the Retail Practice and a leader of the Board and CEO Advisory Partners group at Russell Reynolds Associates. From time to time, the Company has engaged Russell Reynolds Associates, a global leadership and search firm, for recruiting assistance. The amounts of such services provided to the Company for fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020 were $0.7, $2.3 and $0.6, respectively. In connection with the appointment of Fiona Hughes as the Company’s former Chief Marketing Officer, Consumer Beauty, the Company agreed in principle to a secondment arrangement with Jacobs Douwe Egberts B.V., an affiliate of JAB, for the reimbursement of certain employment-related expenses through a transition period that ended February 2020. The amount of such reimbursement was approximately $0.6 for fiscal 2020.
