NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fiscal Year
VF Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, collectively known as “VF” or the “Company”) uses a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31 of each year. The Company's current fiscal year runs from April 3, 2022 through April 1, 2023 ("Fiscal 2023"). Accordingly, this Form 10-Q presents our first quarter of Fiscal 2023. For presentation purposes herein, all references to periods ended June 2022 and June 2021 relate to the fiscal periods ended on July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, respectively. References to March 2022 relate to information as of April 2, 2022.
Basis of Presentation
On June 28, 2021, VF completed the sale of its Occupational Workwear business. The Occupational Workwear business was comprised primarily of the following brands and businesses: Red Kap ® , VF Solutions ® , Bulwark ® , Workrite ® , Walls ® , Terra ® , Kodiak ® , Work Authority ® and Horace Small ® . The business also included the license of certain Dickies ® occupational workwear products that have historically been sold through the business-to-business channel. The results of the Occupational Workwear business and the related cash flows have been reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, respectively, through the date of sale. These changes have been applied to all periods presented.
Unless otherwise noted, discussion within these notes to the interim consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. Refer to Note 4 for additional information on discontinued operations.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the Fiscal 2023 presentation.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Similarly, the March 2022 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of VF for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended June 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for Fiscal 2023. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in VF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 2, 2022 (“Fiscal 2022 Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates
In preparing the interim consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The duration and severity of the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the impact on VF's business is subject to uncertainty; however, the estimates and assumptions made by management include those related to COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine conflict based on available information. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
Supply Chain Financing Program
During the three months ended June 2022, VF reinstated its voluntary supply chain finance ("SCF") program. The SCF program enables a significant portion of our suppliers of inventory to leverage VF's credit rating to receive payment from participating financial institutions prior to the payment date specified in the terms between VF and the supplier. The SCF program is administered through third-party platforms that allow participating suppliers to track payments from VF and elect which VF receivables, if any, to sell to the financial institutions. The transactions are at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and financial institutions, and VF is not a party to the agreements and has no economic interest in the supplier's decision to sell a receivable. The terms between VF and the supplier, including the amount due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the SCF program. Amounts due to suppliers who voluntarily participate in the SCF program are included in the accounts payable line item in VF's Consolidated Balance Sheets and VF payments made under the SCF program are reflected in cash flows from operating activities in VF's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. VF has been informed by the participating financial institutions that amounts payable to them for suppliers who voluntarily participated in the SCF program and included in the accounts payable line item in VF's Consolidated Balance Sheet was $ 164.1 million at June 2022. The amount settled through the SCF program was $ 15.0 million during the three months ended June 2022.
There have been no other changes to the Company's significant accounting policies described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Fiscal 2022 Form 10-K.
NOTE 2 — RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2020 and January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting" and ASU No. 2021-01 , "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope" , respectively. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts,
hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The optional guidance is provided to ease the potential burden of accounting for reference rate reform. The guidance is effective and can be adopted no later than December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on VF's consolidated financial statements.
9 VF Corporation Q1 FY23 Form 10-Q
Table of Contents
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, "Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance" , an update that requires annual disclosures about government assistance, including the
types of assistance and the effect on the financial statements. The guidance is effective for VF in Fiscal 2023. The Company is evaluating the impact that adopting this guidance will have on VF's annual disclosures.
NOTE 3 — REVENUES
Contract Balances
The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities:
(In thousands) June 2022 March 2022 June 2021
Contract assets (a)
$ 2,022 $ 1,065 $ 1,135
Contract liabilities (b)
81,167 71,067 68,921
(a) Included in the other current assets line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(b) Included in the accrued liabilities and other liabilities line items in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
For the three months ended June 2022, the Company recognized $ 64.4 million of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance during the period, including amounts recorded as a contract liability and subsequently recognized as revenue as performance obligations were satisfied within the same period, such as order deposits from customers. The change in the contract asset and contract liability balances primarily results from the timing differences between the Company's satisfaction of performance obligations and the customer's payment.
Performance Obligations
As of June 2022, the Company expects to recognize $ 75.3 million of fixed consideration related to the future minimum guarantees in effect under its licensing agreements and expects such amounts to be recognized over time based on the contractual terms through March 2031. The variable consideration related to
licensing arrangements is not disclosed as a remaining performance obligation as it qualifies for the sales-based royalty exemption. VF has also elected the practical expedient to not disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.
As of June 2022, there were no arrang ements with transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations other than contracts for which the Company has applied the practical expedients and the fixed consideration related to future minimum guarantees discussed above.
For the three months ended June 2022, revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied, in prior periods was not material.
Disaggregation of Revenues
The following tables disaggregate our revenues by channel and geography, which provides a meaningful depiction of how the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues are affected by economic factors.

NOTE 4 — DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company continuously assesses the composition of its portfolio to ensure it is aligned with its strategic objectives and positioned to maximize growth and return to shareholders.
Occupational Workwear Business
On January 21, 2020, VF announced its decision to explore the divestiture of its Occupational Workwear business. The Occupational Workwear business was comprised primarily of the following brands and businesses: Red Kap ® , VF Solutions ® , Bulwark ® , Workrite ® , Walls ® , Terra ® , Kodiak ® , Work Authority ® and Horace Small ® . The business also included the license of certain Dickies ® occupational workwear products that have historically been sold through the business-to-business channel. As of March 28, 2020, the Occupational Workwear business met the held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria. Accordingly, the Company has reported the results of the Occupational Workwear business and the related cash flows as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, respectively, through the date of sale.
On June 28, 2021, VF completed the sale of the Occupational Workwear business. The Company has received proceeds of $ 616.9 million, net of cash sold, resulting in an estimated after-tax gain on sale of $ 146.0 million, of which $ 145.6 million was included i n the income from discontinued operations, net of tax line item in the Consolidated Statement o f Operations for the three months ended June 2021, and is subject to adjustment for certain income tax matters.
The results of the Occupational Workwear business were previously reported in the Work segment. The results of the Occupational Workwear business recorded in the income from discontinued operations, net of tax line item in the Consolidated Statement of Operations were income of $ 170.3 million (including an estimated after-tax gain on sale of $ 145.6 million) for the three months ended June 2021.
Under the terms of a transition services agreement, the Company will provide certain support services for periods generally between 12 and 24 months from the closing date of the transaction.

VF contributed $ 2.5 million to its defined benefit plans during the three months ended June 2022, and intends to make approximately $ 19.1 million of contributions during the remainder of Fiscal 2023.
During the three months ended June 2022, VF entered into an agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”) to purchase an irrevocable group annuity contract relating to approximately $ 330 million of the U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan obligations. The transaction closed on June 30, 2022 and was funded entirely by existing assets of the plan. Under the group annuity contract, Prudential assumed responsibility for benefit payments and annuity administration
for approximately 17,700 retirees and beneficiaries. The transaction will not change the amount or timing of monthly retirement benefit payments. VF recorded a $ 91.8 million settlement charge in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statement of Operations during the three months ended June 2022 to recognize the related deferred actuarial losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) . Actuarial assumptions used in the interim valuation were reviewed and revised as appropriate. The discount rate used to determine the pension obligation as of June 2022 was 4.93 %.
Additionally, VF recorded a $ 0.9 million settlement charge in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 2021. The settlement charge related to the recognition of deferred actuarial losses resulting from lump sum payments of retirement benefits in the supplemental defined benefit pension plan.

NOTE 11 — STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Incentive Equity Awards Granted
During the three months ended June 2022, VF granted stock options to employees and nonemployee members of VF's Board of Directors to purchase 2,360,068 shares of its Common Stock at an exercise price of $ 45.34 per share. The exercise price of each option granted was equal to the fair market value of VF Common Stock on the date of grant. Employee stock options vest in equal annual installments over three years . Stock options granted to nonemployee members of VF's Board of Directors vest upon grant and become exercisable one year from the date of grant. All options have ten-year terms.
The grant date fair value of each option award was calculated using a lattice option-pricing valuation model, which incorporated a range of assumptions for inputs as follows:
Three Months Ended June 2022
Expected volatility 30 % to 41 %
Weighted average expected volatility 38 %
Expected term (in years) 6.0 to 7.7
Weighted average dividend yield 2.9 %
Risk-free interest rate 1.53 % to 2.76 %
Weighted average fair value at date of grant $ 13.52
During the three months ended June 2022, VF granted 340,571 performance-based restricted stock units ("RSUs") to employees that enable them to receive shares of VF Common Stock at the end of a three-year performance cycle. The fair market value of VF Common Stock at the date the units were granted was $ 45.34 per share. Each performance-based RSU has a potential final payout ranging from zero to two shares of VF Common Stock. The number of shares earned by participants, if any, is based on achievement of three-year financial targets set by the Talent and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Shares will be issued to participants in the year following the conclusion of the three-year performance period. The financial targets include 50 % weighting based on VF's revenue growth and 50 % weighting
based on VF's gross margin performance over the three-year period compared to financial targets. Additionally, the actual number of shares earned may be adjusted upward or downward by 25 % of the target award, based on how VF's total shareholder return ("TSR") over the three-year period compares to the TSR for companies included in the Standard & Poor's 500 Consumer Discretionary Index. The grant date fair value of the TSR-based adjustment related to the performance-based RSU grants was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique that incorporates option-pricing model inputs, and was $ 3.46 per share.

Table of Contents
During the three months ended June 2022, VF granted 19,860 nonperformance-based RSUs to nonemployee members of the Board of Directors. These units vest upon grant and will be settled in shares of VF Common Stock one year from the date of grant. The fair market value of VF Common Stock at the date the units were granted was $ 45.34 per share.
In addition, VF granted 589,208 nonperformance-based RSUs to employees during the three months ended June 2022. These units generally vest over periods of up to four years from the date of grant and each unit entitles the holder to one share of VF Common Stock. The fair market value of VF Common Stock at the date the units were granted was $ 45.34 per share.
NOTE 12 — INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 2022 was 10.6 % compared to 14.1 % in the 2021 period. The three months ended June 2022 included a net discrete tax expense of $ 0.8 million, which included a $ 1.6 million net tax expense related to unrecognized tax benefits and interest and a $ 0.8 million net tax benefit related to withholding taxes on prior foreign earnings. Excluding the $ 0.8 million net discrete tax expense in the 2022 period, the effective income tax rate would have been 12.0 %. The three months ended June 2021 included a net discrete tax benefit of $ 2.3 million, which included a $ 1.2 million net tax expense related to unrecognized tax benefits and interest, a $ 1.1 million tax benefit related to stock compensation and a $ 2.4 million net tax benefit related to tax rate change on deferred tax items. Excluding the $ 2.3 million net discrete tax benefit in the 2021 period, the effective income tax rate would have been 15.3 %. Without discrete items, the effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 2022 decreased by 3.3 % compared with the 2021 period primarily due to year-to-date losses generated in the current quarter.
VF files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, as well as separate and combined income tax returns in numerous state and international jurisdictions. In the U.S., the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") examinations for tax years throug h 2015 have been effectively settled.
As previously reported, VF petitioned the U.S. Tax Court (the “Court”) to resolve an IRS dispute regarding the timing of income inclusion associated with VF’s acquisition of The Timberland Company in September 2011. While the IRS argues that all such income should have been immediately included in 2011, VF has reported periodic income inclusions in subsequent tax years. Both parties moved for summary judgment on the issue. On January 31, 2022, the Court issued its opinion in favor of the IRS and on July 14, 2022 issued its final decision. VF believes the opinion of the Court was in error based on the technical merits and intends to appeal. VF continues to believe its timing and treatment of the income inclusion is appropriate and VF is vigorously defending its position. No impact of the Court opinion has been recorded in the consolidated financial statements based on our assessment of the position under the more-likely-than-not standard of the accounting literature. Refer to Note 18 for additional details on this matter.
In addition, VF is currently subject to examination by various state and international tax authorities. Management regularly assesses the potential outcomes of both ongoing and future examinations for the current and prior years and has concluded that VF’s provision for income taxes is adequate. Management believes that some of these audits and negotiations will conclude during the next 12 months.
VF was granted a ruling which lowered the effective income tax rate on taxable earnings for years 2010 through 2014 under Belgium’s excess profit tax regime. During 2015, the European Union Commission (“EU”) investigated and announced its decision that these rulings were illegal and ordered the tax benefits to be collected from affected companies, including VF. Requests for annulment were filed by Belgium and VF Europe BVBA individually. During 2017 and 2018, VF Europe BVBA was assessed and paid € 35.0 million tax and interest, which was recorded as an income tax receivable based on the expected success of the requests for annulment. During 2019, the General Court annulled the EU decision and the EU subsequently appealed the General Court’s annulment. In September 2021, the General Court's judgment was set aside by the Court of Justice of the EU and the case was sent back to the General Court to determine whether the excess profit tax regime amounted to illegal State aid. The case remains open and unresolved. If this matter is adversely resolved, these amounts will not be collected by VF.
During the three months ended June 2022, the amount of net unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest increased by $ 1.9 million to $ 279.6 million. Management believes that it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized income tax benefits and interest may decrease during the next 12 months by approximately $ 257.1 million related to the completion of examinations and other settlements with tax authorities and the expiration of statutes of limitations, of which $ 12.5 million would reduce income tax expense.
NOTE 13 — REPORTABLE SEGMENT INFORMATION
The chief operating decision maker allocates resources and assesses performance based on a global brand view which represents VF's operating segments. The operating segments have been evaluated and combined into reportable segments because they meet the similar economic characteristics and qualitative aggregation criteria set forth in the relevant accounting guidance.
The Company's reportable segments have been identified as: Outdoor, Active and Work. We have included an Other category in the table below for purposes of reconciliation of revenues and profit, but it is not considered a reportable segment. Other includes results primarily related to the sale of non-VF products and sourcing activities related to transition services.

In the three-month period ended June 2022, the dilutive impact of outstanding options and other securities was excluded from dilutive shares as a result of the Company's net loss for the period and, as such, their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Outstanding options to purchase approximately 2.9 million shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month period ended June 2021 because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
In addition, 0.6 million shares of performance-based RSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month period ended June 2021 because these units were not considered to be contingent outstanding shares in the period.
NOTE 15 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified in a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation process. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is based on the observability and objectivity of the pricing inputs, as follows:
• Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 — Significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
17 VF Corporation Q1 FY23 Form 10-Q
Table of Contents
• Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. These inputs would normally be VF’s own data and judgments about
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured and recorded in the consolidated financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis:

Ending Balance $ — $ 134,000
VF’s cash equivalents include money market funds and time deposits with maturities within three months of their purchase dates, that approximate fair value based on Level 1 measurements. The fair value of derivative financial instruments, which consist of foreign exchange forward contracts, is determined based on observable market inputs (Level 2), including spot and forward exchange rates for foreign currencies, and considers the credit risk of the Company and its counterparties. VF’s deferred compensation assets primarily represent investments held within plan trusts as an economic hedge of the related deferred compensation liabilities. These investments primarily include mutual funds (Level 1) that are
valued based on quoted prices in active markets. Liabilities related to VF’s deferred compensation plans are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of the participants’ selection of hypothetical investments.
The contingent consideration liability represented the amount of additional cash consideration paid to the selling shareholders of Supreme Holdings, Inc. ("Supreme"), which was dependent upon the achievement of certain financial targets over the one-year earn-out period ended January 31, 2022. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability, which could range from zero to $ 300.0 million, was $ 57.0 million as of March 2022
VF Corporation Q1 FY23 Form 10-Q 18
Table of Contents
and $ 134.0 million as of June 2021. During Fiscal 2022, the contingent consideration liability was remeasured at fair value based on the probability-weighted present value of various future cash payment outcomes resulting from the estimated achievement levels of the financial targets, with changes recognized in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The contingent consideration was paid during the three months ended June 2022.
All other financial assets and financial liabilities are recorded in the consolidated financial statements at cost, except life insurance contracts which are recorded at cash surrender value.
These other financial assets and financial liabilities include cash held as demand deposits, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. At June 2022 and March 2022, their carrying values approximated fair value. Additionally, at June 2022 and March 2022, the carrying values of VF’s long-term debt, including the current portion, were $ 4,469.5 million and $ 5,085.3 million, respectively, compared with fair values of $ 4,208.3 million and $ 5,042.5 million at those respective dates. Fair value for long-term debt is a Level 2 estimate based on quoted market prices or values of comparable borrowings.
NOTE 16 — DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Summary of Derivative Financial Instruments
All of VF’s outstanding derivative financial instruments are foreign exchange forward contracts. Although derivatives meet the criteria for hedge accounting at the inception of the hedging relationship, a limited number of derivative contracts intended to hedge assets and liabilities are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. The notional amounts of all outstanding
derivative contracts were $ 3.3 billion at June 2022, $ 2.9 billion at March 2022 and $ 2.7 billion at June 2021, consisting primarily of contracts hedging exposures to the euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Swiss franc, South Korean won, Mexican peso, Swedish krona, Polish zloty, Japanese yen and New Zealand dollar. Derivative contracts have maturities up to 20 months.

Derivative Contracts Not Designated as Hedges
VF uses derivative contracts to manage foreign currency exchange risk on third-party accounts receivable and payable, as well as intercompany borrowings. These contracts are not designated as hedges, and are recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair values of these instruments are recognized directly in earnings. Gains or losses on these contracts largely offset the net transaction losses or gains on the related assets and liabilities. In the case of derivative contracts executed on foreign currency exposures that are no longer probable of occurring, VF de-designates these hedges and the fair value changes of these instruments are also recognized directly in earnings.
The impact of de-designated derivative contracts and changes in the fair value of derivative contracts not designated as hedges, recognized as gains or losses in VF's Consolidated Statements of Operations wer e not material f or the three months ended June 2022 and June 2021.
Other Derivative Information
At June 2022, accumulated OCI include d $ 108.9 million of pre-tax net deferred gains for foreign currency exchange contracts
that are expected to be reclassified to earnings during the next 12 months. The amounts ultimately reclassified to earnings will depend on exchange rates in effect when outstanding derivative contracts are settled.
Net Investment Hedge
The Company has designated its euro-denominated fixed-rate notes, which represent € 1.850 billion in aggregate principal, as a net investment hedge of VF’s investment in certain foreign operations. Because this debt qualified as a nonderivative hedging instrument, foreign currency transaction gains or losses of the debt are deferred in the foreign currency translation and other component of accumulated OCI as an offset to the foreign currency translation adjustments on the hedged investments. During the three-month periods ended June 2022 and June 2021, the Company recognized an after-tax gain of $ 87.7 million and an after-tax loss of $ 11.5 million, respectively, in OCI related to the net investment hedge transaction. Any amounts deferred in accumulated OCI will remain until the hedged investment is sold or substantially liquidated.
NOTE 17 — RESTRUCTURING
The Company incurs restructuring charges related to strategic initiatives and cost optimization of business activities, primarily related to severance and employee-related benefits. During the three months ended June 2022, VF recognized $ 6.1 million of restructuring charges, related to approved initiatives. Of the restructuring charges recognized in the three months ended June 2022, $ 4.7 million were reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses and $ 1.4 million in cost of goods sold. The Company has not recognized any significant incremental
costs related to accruals for the year ended March 2022 or prior periods.
Of the $ 21.2 million total restructuring accrual at June 2022, $ 20.5 million is expected to be paid out within the next 12 months and is classified within accrued liabilities. The remaining $ 0.7 million will be paid out beyond the next 12 months and thus is classified within other liabilities.

NOTE 18 — CONTINGENCIES
As previously reported, VF petitioned the U.S. Tax Court (the “Court”) to resolve an IRS dispute regarding the timing of income inclusion associated with VF’s acquisition of The Timberland Company in September 2011. While the IRS argues that all such income should have been immediately included in 2011, VF has reported periodic income inclusions in subsequent tax years. Both parties moved for summary judgment on the issue. On January 31, 2022, the Court issued its opinion in favor of the IRS and on July 14, 2022 issued its final decision. VF believes the opinion of the Court was in error based on the technical merits and intends to appeal; however, VF will be required to pay the 2011 taxes and interest being disputed or post a surety bond. It is anticipated that during Fiscal 2023, the IRS will assess, and VF will pay, the 2011 taxes and interest, which would be recorded as a tax receivable based on the technical merits of our position with regards to the case. The gross amount of taxes and interest as of July 2, 2022 was estimated at approximately $ 857.5 million and will continue to
accrue interest until paid. VF continues to believe its timing and treatment of the income inclusion is appropriate and VF is vigorously defending its position. However, should the Court opinion ultimately be upheld on appeal, this tax receivable may not be collected by VF. If the Court opinion is upheld, VF should be entitled to a refund of taxes paid on the periodic inclusions that VF has reported. However, any such refund could be substantially reduced by potential indirect tax effects resulting from application of the Court opinion. Deferred tax liabilities, representing VF’s future tax on annual inclusions, would also be released. The net impact to tax expense estimated as of July 2, 2022 could be up to $ 715.0 million.
The Company is currently involved in other legal proceedings that are ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the business. The resolution of which is not currently expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 19 — SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 26, 2022, VF’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.50 per share, payable on September 20, 2022 to stockholders of record on September 12, 2022.
