NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
118
F) OTHER ACQUISITIONS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
During 2002 the Company acquired six retail
companies for an aggregate amount of Euro 35.0
million (US$ 33.5 million). All tangible assets and
liabilities assumed were insignificant individually and
in the aggregate and, accordingly, substantially the
entire purchase price was allocated to goodwill. No
pro forma financial information is presented, as the
acquisitions were not material to the Company’s
consolidated financial statements. One of these
companies is accounted for under the equity
method.
In 2003, Luxottica Holland B.V., a wholly-owned
subsidiary, acquired the remaining interest in Mirari
Japan, a wholesale distributor, for aggregate cash
consideration of Euro 18 million. The subsidiary has
been accounted for as a step acquisition and the
Company has recorded goodwill of approximately
Euro 16.9 million in connection therewith.
