V.F. Corporation Research Report
In January, VF and Altamount submitted a joint letter of interest to acquire the Australia-based Billabong for AU$1.10 per share in cash. Billabong, on the other hand, agreed to allow both companies to conduct due diligence to evaluate its business. The primary interest of VF is in the Billabong brand, noting that it is consistent with the interested company's intent to pursue acquisitions, particularly in the Action Sports category, to continue to build shareholder value. The acquisition provides an opportunity for the company to expand and identify new platforms to support long-term growth, in line with what it has projected for its 2013 guidance. The current year's revenue is expected to increase six percent, and adjusted EPS expected to grow 11 percent to $10.70. The Full Research Report on V.F.
