Note 15: Subsequent Events

 

On July 30, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Stitch Industries Inc. (“Joybird”), an e-commerce retailer and manufacturer of upholstered furniture. Per the terms of the merger agreement, we acquired Joybird for a total of $75 million of guaranteed payments, with two future earnout opportunities based on Joybird’s financial performance in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2023. The guaranteed payments included an initial payment of $50 million on the acquisition date, with the remaining $25 million to be paid annually in $5 million installments over the next five years.  Of the $50 million initial payment, $7.5 million will be considered compensation expense because it is forfeitable proportionately upon the resignation of any of the four co-founders of Joybird within the first two years following the acquisition date, and we will amortize it to selling, general & administrative expense over the two-year retention period on a straight-line basis. In addition, we expect to record a contingent consideration liability for the fair value of the earnout opportunities as of the date of acquisition, as well as the fair value of the acquired Joybird tradename, which we expect to amortize to selling, general & administrative expense over its useful life. We will begin including Joybird in our Corporate and Other results in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. We anticipate recording our initial purchase accounting, including the fair value measurements for acquired inventory, the contingent consideration liability, the Joybird tradename, and the goodwill acquired as part of this acquisition, when we report our financial results for our second quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

On August 15, 2018, we acquired the assets of EBCO, Inc., an independent operator of nine La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in Arizona for approximately $40 million of cash. We will begin including these stores in our Retail segment results in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. We anticipate recording our initial purchase accounting, including the fair value measurements for acquired inventory, the indefinite-lived reacquired right asset and the goodwill acquired as part of this acquisition, when we report our financial results for our second quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

Neither of the above acquisitions was material to our financial position or our results of operations, and, therefore, we are not presenting pro-forma financial information.
