Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic |
| (2) | Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
A novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) surfaced in late 2019 and has spread around the world, including to the United States and France. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our business operations and caused a significant unfavorable impact on our results of operations. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic various national, state, and local governments where we, our suppliers, and our customers operate initially issued decrees prohibiting certain businesses from continuing to operate and certain classes of workers from reporting to work. More recently, those governments have set guidelines in allowing businesses to reopen and employees to return to offices. Beginning in March 2020, we implemented travel restrictions and we have been following social distancing practices. Our teams were set up to work from home and carry on business as efficiently as possible. In all jurisdictions in which we operate we have been following guidance from authorities and health officials in allowing our teams to gradually return to our offices, including, requiring personnel to wear masks and other protective clothing as appropriate, and implementing additional cleaning and sanitization routines at our offices and distribution centers as the health and safety of our employees are paramount. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the beauty industry began in early March 2020. Retail store closings, event cancellations and a shutdown of international air travel brought our sales to a virtual standstill. The duration and intensity of this global health emergency and its related disruptions are uncertain. Beginning in June 2020, retail stores in many jurisdictions around the world began reopening and business has improved considerably. However, international travel has remained largely curtailed globally due to both government restrictions and consumer health concerns that continue to adversely impact consumer traffic in most travel retail locations. We anticipate that limited traffic in reopened stores and the virtual shutdown of international air traffic will continue to have an unfavorable impact our business. We faced significant challenges in 2020 and we anticipate that these challenges will continue in 2021 due to uncertain market conditions. Business significantly improved during the second half of 2020, as retail stores began reopening and consumers have increased their on-line purchasing. We expect this trend to continue, however, we do not see a resurgence anytime soon in travel retail as air traffic continues to suffer due in part to governmental restrictions on international air travel. In addition, the recent resurgence and introduction of variants of COVID-19 cases in various parts of the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom and other countries in Europe, South America and Africa, has caused temporary re-implementation of government restrictions to prevent further spread of the virus. These include the temporary closure of businesses deemed non-essential, travel bans and restrictions, social distancing and quarantines. Lastly, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to high levels of unemployment and deteriorating economic conditions in many countries where our products are sold, forcing many consumers to limit discretionary purchases. We believe that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have a material adverse effect on our results of our operations, financial position and cash flows through at least the end of 2021.
