Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions The Company’s Chief Creative Officer, Michael Kors, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, John Idol, and certain of the Company’s former shareholders, including Sportswear Holdings Limited, jointly owned Michael Kors Far East Holdings Limited, a BVI company, prior to the Company’s acquisition of MKHKL on May 31, 2016, which eliminated their ownership interests. On April 1, 2011, the Company entered into certain licensing agreements with certain subsidiaries of Michael Kors Far East Holdings Limited, including MKHKL, (the “Licensees”), which provided the Licensees with certain exclusive rights for use of the Company’s trademarks within China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, and to import, sell, advertise and promote certain of the Company’s products in these regions, as well as to own and operate stores bearing the Company’s tradenames. The agreements between the Company and the Licensees were scheduled to expire on March 31, 2041, and could be terminated by the Company at certain intervals if minimum sales benchmarks were not met. Royalties earned under these agreements were approximately $1.2 million during the two months ended May 31, 2016 preceding the acquisition, and were approximately $7.6 million during Fiscal 2016. These royalties were driven by Licensee adjusted net sales of the Company’s goods, as defined in the licensing agreement, to their customers of approximately $28.9 million during the two months ended May 31, 2016 preceding the acquisition, and approximately $169.8 million during Fiscal 2016. In addition, the Company sold certain inventory items to the Licensees through its wholesale segment at terms consistent with those of similar licensees in the region. During the two months ended May 31, 2016 preceding the acquisition, amounts recognized as net sales in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income related to these sales were approximately $7.9 million, and were $62.8 million in Fiscal 2016. Please refer to Note 3 for additional information relating to the Company’s acquisition of MKHKL on May 31, 2016. A former executive officer of the Company (who is no longer a related party as of October 31, 2016) is married to a former employee of one of the Company’s suppliers of fixtures for its shop-in-shops, retail stores and showrooms. Purchases from this supplier, while deemed to be a related party, were $1.7 million and $3.4 million during Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2016, respectively.
