Commitments And Contingencies
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, insurance, regulatory and other matters arising out of the normal course of business. Actions filed against the Company from time to time include commercial, tort, intellectual property, customer, employment, data privacy, securities and other claims, including purported class action lawsuits. Management believes that the ultimate liability arising from such claims and contingencies, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Guarantees
In connection with the sale of La Senza in the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company has remaining guarantees of $71 million related to lease payments under the current terms of noncancelable leases expiring at various dates through 2028. These guarantees include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the disposition of the business. The Company recorded a liability of $5 million as of May 4, 2019 and February 2, 2019 representing the estimated fair value of its obligation as guarantor in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees. In connection with the disposition of a certain other business, the Company has remaining guarantees of $5 million related to lease payments under the current terms of a noncancelable lease expiring in 2021, which may remain in effect if the term is extended. The Company has not recorded a liability with respect to this guarantee obligation as of May 4, 2019, February 2, 2019 or May 5, 2018 as it concluded that payments under this guarantee were not probable.
In connection with noncancelable operating leases of certain assets, the Company provided residual value guarantees to the lessor if the leased assets cannot be sold for an amount in excess of a specified minimum value at the conclusion of the lease term. The leases expire at various dates through 2021, and the total amount of the guarantees is $94 million. The Company recorded a liability of $10 million as of May 4, 2019, $11 million as of February 2, 2019 and $3 million as of May 5, 2018 related to these guarantee obligations. This liability is included in Long-term Operating Lease Liabilities on the May 4, 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet, and in Other Long-term Liabilities on the February 2, 2019 and May 5, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheets.
