Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Nine Months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 (Unaudited)

Basis of Presentation

Description of Company

The consolidated financial statements present the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses related to Donna Karan International Inc. (“DKI” or the “Company”). DKI is wholly owned by its ultimate parent company, LVMH Moet Hennessey Louis Vuitton S.E. (the “Parent” or “LVMH”). DKI engages in the design, marketing, and sale of apparel, accessories and shoes.

DKI’s corporate offices are in the U.S. and has operations in Canada, Holland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, and the United Kingdom.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a standalone basis and are presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements have been derived from the accounting records of the Parent and reflect the historical results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company.

On July 22, 2016, the Parent entered into a definitive agreement to sell the Company to G-III Apparel Group Ltd. (“G-III”) (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, certain assets and liabilities of the Company are excluded from the transaction (“The Excluded Assets and Liabilities”), which primarily relate to certain leases. The Excluded Assets and Liabilities have been included in the basis of presentation of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has experienced net losses of $64.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, and shows negative cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. During the periods presented, the Parent has provided significant funding to support the restructuring activities in 2015 and 2016, and other operating activities. The Parent will continue to fund the operating activities of the Company until the closing of the transaction with G-III.

The Parent uses a centralized approach to cash management under which cash deposits are transferred to the Parent on a daily basis and are pooled with other LVMH entities. The centralized approach to cash management was necessary to enable the Company to meet its liquidity needs. This arrangement is not reflective of the manner in which the Company would have been able to finance its operations had it been a standalone business separate from LVMH for the periods presented. The Company’s cash and short term borrowings balances related to the central pooling arrangement are reflected in Due to Parent and affiliates and Borrowings from Parent and affiliates within the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Parent provides certain services, such legal, tax accounting, human resources, employees’ benefits and other support services on behalf of the Company. These costs have been allocated to the Company on a specific identification basis or on a percentage of Net revenue. Refer to Note 6 Related Party Transactions for further information on expenses allocated by the Parent and its affiliates to the Company.

For the purpose of these interim consolidated financial statements, income taxes have been calculated using the separate return method. See Note 10, “Income Taxes” for further information.

The historical financial results in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements presented may not be indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the Company operated as a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. In the opinion of management, the assumptions underlying the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company, including the basis on which the expenses have been allocated from the Parent and other members of LVMH, are reasonable.

However, the allocations may not reflect the expenses that the Company may have incurred as an independent, stand-alone company for the periods presented.

Goodwill and intangible assets, net	$	363,965	$	363,965	$	363,965

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for under the purchase method. Goodwill has been allocated to the reporting units based upon the relative fair values of the reporting units.

The Company reviews and tests its goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may be impaired. The Company estimates the fair value of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets at each testing date using a discounted cash flow analysis.

The discounted cash method, a level 3 fair value measurement, requires that certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding industry and economic factors and future profitability.

Donna Karan International Inc.

Related Party Transactions

Related Party Revenue

The Company recorded $0.3 million and $0.2 million of revenues related to administrative and professional services to affiliates for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 recorded in Other income within the Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Related Party Receivables and Payables

The table below presents related party receivables and payables:

(U.S. dollars in thousands)	September 30, 2016		December 30, 2015		September 30, 2015
Due from Parent and affiliates
Operating receivables from Parent and affiliates⁽¹⁾	$	2	$	2	$	2

Due to Parent and affiliates, net	$	112,085	$	60,559	$	60,748

(1)

Operating receivables and payables mainly consisted of cash pooling and other financing arrangements with the Parent and affiliates. These balances are classified as financing activities within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Expense Allocations

The Parent provides certain services, such as legal, tax accounting, human resources, employees’ benefits and other support services on behalf of the Company. These costs have been allocated to the Company on a specific identification basis or on a percentage of Net revenue. Management believes the assumptions underlying the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, including the assumptions regarding allocating general corporate expenses from the Parent, are reasonable. Nevertheless, the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements may not include all of the actual expenses that would have been incurred by the Company and may not reflect the results of operations, balance sheets and cash flows had it been a stand-alone business during the periods presented. The Company has recorded expenses allocated from the Parent of $7.9 million and $11.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These costs are included within Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Interim Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Borrowings from the Parent

On July 21, 2014 the Company entered into a $3.0 million unsecured 6-month loan arrangement with an affiliate, LVMH Finance Belgique SA (“LFB”), at an interest rate of 2.1%. On January 15, 2015 the Company renewed the

Donna Karan International Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Nine Months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 (Unaudited)

loan for $2.9 million at an interest rate of 2.1% for an additional 6 months. The loan was settled by the Company on July 25, 2015.

Related Party Interest Expense

Historically, the Company has had access to funding provided by the Parent and its affiliates. The Company used this funding provided by the Parent and its affiliates to meet its funding requirements after taking into account the cash generated from its operations. The Company recorded related party interest expense on the cash pool and short-term borrowings on the Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Interest cost is charged to the Company from the Parent’s centralized treasury function based on the fixed and floating rates on the Parent’s third-party debt, considering the relevant long-term and short-term funding needs of the Company. The interest rate charged on the related party debt was 0.4% - 2.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The Company incurred borrowing costs for related party cost pool and short-term funding arrangements with the Parent of $0.7 million and $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, recorded in Interest expense, net on the Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Parent Guarantees

The Parent guarantees certain of the Company’s performance to third parties including letters of credit and leases used in the normal course of business.

Letters of Credit

On December 13, 2004 the Company entered in to a letter of credit facility with a bank for $30.0 million. On December 14, 2011, the Company increased the letter of credit to $40.0 million. The letter of credit acts as a performance bond, with a vendor being the beneficiary, if the Company defaults on its obligations. The Parent has guaranteed the full amount of the facility on behalf of the Company. In exchange for the guarantee, the Company is charged an annual fee of 0.2% by the Parent. The facility is subject to a review by the bank for renewal on a semi-annual basis. Letters of credit outstanding were approximately $12.1 million, $16.3 million and $15.8 million at September 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, respectively.

Since 2010, the Company had a letter of credit facility outstanding with another bank of $15.0 million. The Company uses the facility to issue standby letters of credit for certain guarantees to landlords, with the landlords being the beneficiary, if the Company defaults on their lease obligations. The Parent has guaranteed the full amount of the facility on behalf of the Company. In exchange for the guarantee, the Company is charged a fee of 0.2% by the Parent. The letter of credit is automatically extended by the bank on an annual basis until October 31, 2020. Letters of credit outstanding were approximately $1.8 million at September 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015.

Leases

The Parent guarantees payment to landlords on behalf of the Company for certain leases. In exchange for the guarantee, the Company is charged an annual interest rate of 0.3% by the Parent.

The fees charged for the Parent’s guarantees were $0.1 million in each of the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, recorded in Interest expense, net in the Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

The remainder of the net transfer with the Parent that are not expected to be settled, are reflected in Stockholder’s Equity within Additional Paid-in Capital on the Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statement of Stockholder’s Equity and are classified as non-cash operating activities within the Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Restructuring

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company announced it would discontinue its DKNY Jeans and Donna Karan Collection as separate brands as part of a restructuring plan (the “Restructuring Plan”) to better align its brand strategy. This plan included the consolidation and streamlining of the Company’s processes and a reduction in its global workforce and other expenses. As part of the Restructuring Plan, the Company decided to close certain stores (including the Company’s flagship store in New York) which were vacated during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

These actions resulted in restructuring charges related primarily to cash-based severance costs of $2.0 million and $30.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and expenses related to store closings of $9.7 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had a balance of approximately $16.1 million in accrued expenses, of which $9.3 million is presented within Accrued expenses and other liabilities and is expected to be paid within the next 12 months. As of September 30, 2016, $6.8 million in accrued expenses are expected to be paid between 2017 through 2022 and is presented in Other non-current liabilities within the Interim Consolidated Balance sheets.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The fair value accounting guidance outlines a valuation framework, creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures, and prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value are set forth in the table below:

	September 30, 2016					December 31, 2015					September 30, 2015
(U.S. dollars in thousands)	Level 1	Level 2			Level 3	Level 1	Level 2			Level 3	Level 1	Level 2			Level 3
Assets:
Derivative foreign currency contracts		$	133				$	2,001				$	876
Total derivative assets		$	133				$	2,001				$	876

Liabilities
Derivative foreign currency contracts		$	(302	)			$	(379	)			$	(234	)
Total derivative liabilities		$	(302	)			$	(379	)			$	(234	)

Fair values of the financial assets listed above are determined using inputs that use as their basis readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services and brokers. The foreign currency forward contracts represent gains and losses on derivative contracts, which is the net difference between the U.S. dollar value to be received or paid at the contracts’ settlement date and

the foreign currency to be sold or purchased at the current forward exchange rate. The fair value of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts was determined using the market approach and Level 2 inputs.

The Company’s derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments. As of September 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015 the aggregate notional value of the Company's outstanding derivative foreign currency contracts were $24.0 million, $65.4 million, and $44.8 million, respectively, which was comprised of Canadian Dollar/U.S. Dollar, and Euro/U.S. Dollar currency pairs with contract maturities ranging from one to twelve months. The Company records its gains and losses on derivatives not designated as hedging within Net revenue within the Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

The amount of gains (losses) disclosed within Net revenue in the Interim Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss are as follows:

	Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized on Derivatives for the Nine Months Ended September 30,
(U.S. dollars in thousands)	2016			2015
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Foreign exchange contracts	$	(1,433	)	$	(1,922	)

Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, other intangible assets and property and equipment are only recorded at fair value if an impairment charge is recognized.

The Company did not record an impairment charge during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Income Taxes

The tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. In each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made in that quarter.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized income tax expense of $1.2 million on loss of $63.0 million, an effective tax rate of (2.0)% as compared to income tax expense of $9.3 million on loss of $50.4 million, an effective tax rate of (18.5%), for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The difference in the effective tax rate versus the statutory rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to changes in uncertain tax provision reserves, the benefit of net operating losses and foreign tax credits offset by the change in valuation allowance, and permanent differences. The Company has unrecognized tax benefits of $5.5 million and $5.6 million at September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which includes accrued interest of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Between September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015, there was a net decrease in unrecognized tax benefits of $0.2 million, which included a settlement of $0.4 million. The unrecognized benefits pertain to foreign and U.S. state level tax positions.

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

In addition to the legal matters described below, the Company is involved from time to time in routine legal matters and litigation incidental to its business. Although the outcome of any such matters and litigation cannot be determined with certainty, management is of the opinion that the final outcome of these matters and litigation will not have a material effect on the Company's Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets and Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Intern Class Action

On August 28, 2013, a former intern with The Donna Karan Company LLC filed a claim in New York State Supreme Court against Donna Karan Studio LLC and Donna Karan International Inc. (The Donna Karan Company Store LLC and The Donna Karan Company LLC have since been correctly substituted), asserting claims under New York State law on the former intern’s own behalf and on behalf of a putative class of individuals who held internships from August 28, 2007 to the present, that the interns were misclassified and should have been paid as “employees” in accordance with New York State wage and hour laws. The complaint sought class-wide damages including, among other things, unpaid wages, liquidated damages, interest and attorneys’ fees.

In August 2016, the parties executed a settlement agreement and a motion has been filed in court seeking preliminary approval of the settlement, which contemplates payments to former interns on a claims-made basis, payment of fees to the named plaintiff’s attorneys, a service payment to the named plaintiff and a payment to a claims administrator that will manage the settlement for an amount up to $0.6 million. The motion for preliminary approval has not yet been scheduled.

Italian Case

In 2003, a suit was brought against The Donna Karan Company LLC in the Civil Tribunal of Florence, Italy. The suit involves a dispute arising from the termination of an agreement with a former buying agent. The former buying agent requests damages for alleged (i) improper notice of termination; (ii) indemnity payment for termination of an agency agreement, (iii) unpaid commissions for orders placed in breach of the agreement; and (iv) other unspecified damages. The Company counterclaimed for damages for alleged breaches of the agreement.

In March 2013, the plaintiff brought the action in the Civil Tribunal Court of Florence. In February 2014, the Court dismissed the case for lack of jurisdiction on the basis that the disputed contract is not an agency agreement and, as a result, the Italian provision on agency which allegedly excludes the arbitrarily of agency disputes does not apply. In September 2014, the plaintiff challenged the decision of the first instance Court of Florence. By decision in April

2015, the Court of Appeal of Florence declared that the plaintiff’s appeal was not admissible and confirmed the first instance decision.

In June 8, 2015, the former buying agent challenged both the decisions of the first instance court and of the Court of Appeal of Florence before the Supreme Court of Cassation of Italy, asking the court to ascertain that the arbitral clause included in the disputed contract is not valid and effective and to establish that its claim falls within the jurisdiction of Italian Courts. The Supreme Court of Cassation of Italy held the hearing for discussion on October 25, 2016. A decision from this hearing is pending.

For the matters disclosed above, in view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation, claims and other matters, the Company often cannot predict what the eventual outcome of a pending matter will be, or what the timing or results of the ultimate resolution of a matter will be.

Purchase Order Commitments

As of September 30, 2016, the Company had $24.9 million of open inventory purchase order commitments. The terms of these purchase order commitments are less than one year in duration.

Subsequent Events

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are derived from the financial statements of the Parent, which issued its annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 on February 12, 2016. Accordingly, the Company has evaluated transactions or other events for consideration as recognized subsequent events in the annual financial statements through February 12, 2016. Additionally, the Company has evaluated transactions and other events that occurred through the issuance of these consolidated financial statements, November 22, 2016, for purposes of disclosure of unrecognized subsequent events.

On July 25, 2016, G-III announced their intention to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of the Company pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 22, 2016 between G-III and the Parent. The closing is subject to certain closing conditions. On November 11, 2016, G-III notified the Parent of the intent to elect under section 338 (h) (10) of the Internal Revenue Code which effectively changed the treatment of G-III's acquisition of the Company from a stock transaction to an asset transaction for tax purposes.
