Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously announced, on March 2, 2011, Weyco Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with The Combs Company (“Combs”) and William G. and Sue Combs, the individual shareholders of Combs, pursuant to which the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding stock of Combs. Combs is the owner of the BOGS and Rafters footwear brands. The purchase price was $29.4 million in cash, plus assumed debt of $3.5 million and contingent payments after two and five years, which are dependent upon Combs achieving certain performance measures. At the acquisition date, the Company estimates the discounted fair value of the two contingent payments to be approximately $9.8 million in total.
The February 28, 2011 balance sheet of Combs was not available as of the date of this report, which precluded disclosures regarding the fair value of assets acquired and goodwill. Combs’ sales for its most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 were approximately $27 million.
The transaction was funded with available cash and borrowings under the Company’s existing $50 million revolving line of credit.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
The information provided above in response to Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this item 2.01.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
