Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) Previous independent registered public accounting firm.
On December 13, 2006, both of the VF Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Hourly Employees and the VF Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees (together, the “Plans”), dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Plans.
PwC remains the independent registered public accounting firm for VF Corporation (the “Company”), the sponsor of the Plans. The dismissal of PwC described above relates only to the Plans.
The reports of PwC on the financial statements of the Plans for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and through December 13, 2006, there have been no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC would have caused PwC to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements of the Plans for such years.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and through December 13, 2006, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Plans have requested that PwC furnish them with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated December 15, 2006, is filed as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K.
(b) New independent registered accounting firm.
The Plans engaged Dixon Hughes PLLC (“DH”) as their new independent registered public accounting firm as of December 13, 2006. During the two most recent fiscal years and through December 13, 2006, the Plans have not consulted with DH regarding any of the matters referenced in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
