Meiomi –
In June 2015, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire the Meiomi wine brand for approximately $315 million, subject to customary closing conditions and adjustments. The transaction includes the acquisition of the Meiomi trademark, related inventories and certain grape supply contracts (“Meiomi”). The transaction is expected to close around the beginning of August. The results of operations of Meiomi will be reported in the Wine and Spirits segment and will be included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.
