NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

As used in these financial statements, the term “Company” or “G-III” refers to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. The Company designs, sources and markets an extensive range of apparel, including outerwear, dresses, sportswear, swimwear, women’s suits and women’s performance wear, as well as women’s handbags, footwear, small leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage. The Company also operates retail stores and licenses its proprietary brands for several product categories.

The Company consolidates the accounts of its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. KL North America B.V. (“KLNA”) and Fabco Holding B.V. (“Fabco”) are Dutch joint venture limited liability companies that are 49% owned by the Company. Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V. (“KLH”) is a Dutch limited liability company that is 19% owned by the Company. These investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Vilebrequin International SA (“Vilebrequin”), a Swiss corporation that is wholly-owned by the Company, KLH, KLNA and Fabco report results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by the Company. Accordingly, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH, KLNA and Fabco are, and will be, included in the financial statements for the quarter ended or ending closest to the Company’s fiscal quarter end. For example, with respect to the Company’s results for the three-month period ended April 30, 2020, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH, KLNA and Fabco are included for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. The Company’s retail operations segment reports on a 52/53-week fiscal year. The Company’s three-month periods ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 were each 13-week fiscal quarters for the retail operations segment. For fiscal 2021 and 2020, the three-month period for the retail operations segment ended on May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019, respectively.

The results for the three months ended April 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year, given the seasonal nature of the Company’s business and the significant effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business. The accompanying financial statements included herein are unaudited. All adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period presented have been reflected.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar (reporting currency), are translated from foreign currency into U.S. dollars at period-end rates, while income and expenses are translated at the weighted-average exchange rates for the period. The related translation adjustments are reflected as a foreign currency translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders’ equity.

​

Accounting Policies

​

On April 10, 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a Staff Q&A to respond to frequently asked questions about accounting for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak. Consequently, for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, an entity will not have to analyze each lease to determine whether the enforceable rights and obligations for concessions exist in the contract and can elect to apply or not apply the lease modification guidance to those leases. Entities may make the elections for any lessor-provided concessions related to the effects of the outbreak (e.g., deferrals of lease payments, cash payments made to the lessee, or reduced future lease payments) as long as the concession does not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee. The Company has elected to not apply the lease modification guidance for contracts with COVID-19 related rent concessions. As of April 30, 2020, the Company has $6.8 million of deferred lease payments recorded within accounts payable on its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Liquidity and Impact of COVID-19

​

The Company relies on its cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under its credit facilities to meet the cash requirements of its business. The primary cash requirements of its business are the seasonal buildup in inventory, compensation paid to employees, payments to suppliers in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, maturities of debt and related interest payments and income tax payments. The rapid expansion of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a sharp decline in net sales and earnings in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, which had a corresponding impact on the Company’s liquidity. The Company is focused on preserving its liquidity and managing its cash flow during these unprecedented conditions. The Company has taken preemptive actions to enhance its ability to meet its short-term liquidity needs, including, but not limited to, reducing payroll costs through employee furloughs and salary reductions, reduction of all discretionary spending, deferring certain lease payments, deferral of capital projects and drawing down on its revolving credit facility. In addition, the Company is closely monitoring its inventory needs and is working with its suppliers to curtail, or cancel, production of product that the Company believes will not be able to be sold in season. The Company has also been working with its suppliers and licensors to negotiate extended payment terms in order to preserve capital.

​

In March 2020, in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company borrowed an aggregate of $500 million under its revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure, to provide the Company with additional financial flexibility to manage its business during the unknown duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In May and June 2020, the Company repaid an aggregate of $500 million of its borrowings under the revolving credit facility as financial markets stabilized. As of April 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its term loan and revolving credit facility.

​

Note 2 – Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

​

On February 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s financial instruments consist of trade receivables arising from revenue transactions in the ordinary course of business. The Company considers its trade receivables to consist of two portfolio segments: wholesale and retail trade receivables. Wholesale trade receivables result from credit the Company has extended to its wholesale customers based on pre-defined criteria and are generally due within 30 to 60 days. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, certain of the Company’s wholesale customers have asked for extended payment terms. Retail trade receivables primarily relate to amounts due from third-party credit card processors for the settlement of debit and credit card transactions and are typically collected within 3 to 5 days. The Company’s accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts as of April 30, 2020 were:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | April 30, 2020
​ |  | Wholesale |  | Retail |  | Total
​ | ​ | (In thousands)
Accounts receivable, gross | ​ | $ | 428,762 | ​ | $ | 2,828 | ​ | $ | 431,590
Allowance for doubtful accounts | ​ | ​ | (10,419) | ​ | ​ | (28) | ​ | ​ | (10,447)
Accounts receivable, net | ​ | $ | 418,343 | ​ | $ | 2,800 | ​ | $ | 421,143

​

The allowance for doubtful accounts for wholesale trade receivables is estimated based on several factors. In circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation (such as in the case of bankruptcy filings (including potential bankruptcy filings), extensive delay in payment or substantial downgrading by credit rating agencies), a specific reserve for bad debts is recorded against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. For all other wholesale customers, an allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable at the end of the reporting period for financial statements, assessments of collectability based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions. The Company considers both current and forecasted future economic conditions in determining the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts.

​

The allowance for doubtful accounts for retail trade receivables is estimated as the credit card chargeback rate applied to the previous 90 days of credit card sales. In addition, the Company considers both current and forecasted future economic conditions in determining the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts.

​

Table of Contents

During the three months ended April 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $9.7 million increase in its allowance for doubtful accounts primarily due to allowances recorded against the outstanding receivables of certain department store customers that have publicly announced bankruptcy filings or possible bankruptcy filings. The Company had the following activity in its allowance for credit losses for the three months ended April 30, 2020:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | April 30, 2020
​ |  | Wholesale |  | Retail |  | Total
​ | ​ | (In thousands)

Provision for credit losses | ​ | ​ | (9,791) | ​ | ​ | 54 | ​ | ​ | (9,737)
Ending balance | ​ | $ | (10,419) | ​ | $ | (28) | ​ | $ | (10,447)

​

​

Note 3 – Inventories

Wholesale inventories, which comprise a significant portion of the Company’s inventory, are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Retail inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market as determined by the retail inventory method. Vilebrequin inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the weighted average method) or net realizable value. Substantially all of the Company’s inventories consist of finished goods.

The inventory return asset, which consists of the amount of goods that are anticipated to be returned by customers, represented $21.3 million, $35.5 million and $31.0 million as of April 30, 2020, April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2020 respectively. The inventory return asset is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Inventory held on consignment by the Company’s customers totaled $6.6 million, $3.8 million and $9.1 million at April 30, 2020, April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2020, respectively. Consignment inventory is stored at the facilities of the Company’s customers. The Company reflects this inventory on its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

​

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy for a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in its valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-based (observable) or internally-derived (unobservable). A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

​

| ● | Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

​

| ● | Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable.

​

| ● | Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on unobservable prices or valuation techniques that are significant to the fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the carrying values and the estimated fair values of the Company’s debt instruments:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Carrying Value | ​ | Fair Value
​ | ​ | ​ |  | April 30, | ​ | April 30, | ​ | January 31, |  | April 30, | ​ | April 30, | ​ | January 31,
Financial Instrument | ​ | Level | ​ | 2020 | ​ | 2019 | ​ | 2020 | ​ | 2020 | ​ | 2019 | ​ | 2020
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | (In thousands)
Term loan | ​ | 2 | ​ | $ | 300,000 | ​ | $ | 300,000 | ​ | $ | 300,000 | ​ | $ | 300,000 | ​ | $ | 300,000 | ​ | $ | 300,000
Revolving credit facility | ​ | 2 | ​ | ​ | 500,000 | ​ | ​ | 22,509 | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 500,000 | ​ | ​ | 22,509 | ​ | ​ | —
Note issued to LVMH | ​ | 3 | ​ | ​ | 103,438 | ​ | ​ | 97,938 | ​ | ​ | 102,009 | ​ | ​ | 109,910 | ​ | ​ | 90,065 | ​ | ​ | 95,126
Unsecured loans | ​ | 2 | ​ | ​ | 4,504 | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 2,860 | ​ | ​ | 4,504 | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 2,860

​

The Company’s debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in its condensed consolidated balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The carrying amount of the Company’s variable rate debt approximates the fair value, as interest rates change with the market rates. Furthermore, the carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts.

​

The 2% note issued to LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton Inc. (“LVMH”) in connection with the acquisition of Donna Karan International (“DKI”) was issued at a discount of $40.0 million in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 – Fair Value Measurements. For purposes of this fair value disclosure, the Company based its fair value estimate for the note issued to LVMH on the initial fair value as determined at the date of the acquisition of DKI and records the amortization using the effective interest method over the term of the note.

​

The fair value of the note issued to LVMH was considered a Level 3 valuation in the fair value hierarchy.

​

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities

​

The Company’s non-financial assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include long-lived assets, which consist primarily of property and equipment and operating lease assets. The Company reviews these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable. For impaired assets, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the asset or asset group and its estimated fair value. For operating lease assets, the Company determines the fair value of the assets by discounting the estimated market rental rates over the remaining term of the lease. These fair value measurements are considered level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded an impairment of $9.6 million, net of tax, in connection with the adoption of ASC 842 – Leases (“ASC 842”) that was recognized through retained earnings.

​

Note 5 – Leases

​

The Company leases retail stores, warehouses, distribution centers, office space and certain equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

​

Most leases are for a term of one to ten years. Some leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to ten years. Several of the Company’s retail store leases include an option to terminate the lease based on failure to achieve a specified sales volume. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion. The exercise of lease termination options is generally by mutual agreement between the Company and the lessor.

​

Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

​

As of April 30, 2020, there are no material leases that are legally binding but have not yet commenced.

​

As of April 30, 2020, the weighted average remaining lease term related to operating leases is 5.1 years. The weighted average discount rate related to operating leases is 7.9%.

​

Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities is $23.4 million and $26.4 million during the periods ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations were $4.6 million and $1.8 million as of April 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

​

Note 6 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

​

As of April 30, 2020, there is $259.9 million of goodwill and $437.6 million of indefinite-lived trademarks recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company reviews and tests its goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may be impaired. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations, the Company performed a quantitative test of its goodwill as of April 30, 2020 using an income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis methodology. The discounted cash flow approach requires that certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding industry economic factors and future profitability. The Company also performed quantitative tests of each of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using a relief from royalty method, another form of the income approach. The relief from royalty method requires assumptions regarding industry economic factors and future profitability. There were no impairments identified as of April 30, 2020 as a result of these tests.

11

Table of Contents

​

While no impairment was identified as of the test date, $370.0 million of the Company’s indefinite-lived trademarks could be deemed to have a risk of future impairment as there is limited excess fair value over the carrying value of these assets at April 30, 2020. The continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could give rise to global and regional macroeconomic factors that could impact the Company’s assumptions relating to net sales growth rates, discount rates, tax rates or royalty rates and may result in future impairment charges for indefinite-lived intangible assets.

​

The fair value of the Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are considered a Level 3 valuation in the fair value hierarchy.

​

Note 7 – Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

​

Basic net income (loss) per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share, when applicable, is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential dilutive common shares, consisting of unvested restricted stock unit awards and stock options outstanding during the period. Approximately 355,900 shares of common stock have been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation for the three months ended April 30, 2019. All share-based payments outstanding that vest based on the achievement of performance and/or market price conditions, and for which the respective performance and/or market price conditions have not been achieved, have been excluded from the diluted per share calculation.

​

The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share:

Term Loan

​

The Company borrowed $350.0 million under a senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) that matures in December 2022. The Company prepaid $50.0 million in principal amount of the Term Loan, reducing the principal balance of the Term Loan to $300.0 million. The Term Loan is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

​

Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan accrues at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), subject to a 1% floor, plus an applicable margin of 5.25% or an alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus 4.25%, per annum, payable in cash. As of April 30, 2020, interest under the Term Loan was being paid at a weighted average rate of 6.66% per annum.

​

The Term Loan is secured by certain assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Term Loan is required to be prepaid with the proceeds of certain asset sales if such proceeds are not applied as required by the Term Loan within specified deadlines. The Term Loan contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability, subject to certain exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of certain assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve the Company; acquire other companies; make loans, advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. This loan also includes a mandatory prepayment provision based on excess cash flow as defined in the term loan agreement. A first lien leverage covenant requires the Company to maintain a level of debt to EBITDA at a ratio as defined in the term loan agreement. As of April 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

​

Revolving Credit Facility

​

The Company has a $650 million credit agreement (the “revolving credit facility”) under which amounts available are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the revolving credit facility agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at the Company’s option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.75% or an alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus a margin of 0.25% to 0.75%, with the applicable margin determined based on the availability under the revolving credit facility agreement. The revolving credit facility has a five-year term ending December 1, 2021. In addition to paying interest on any outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the credit agreement with respect to the unutilized commitments. The commitment fee accrues at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitments.

​

The revolving credit facility is secured by specified assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.

​

The revolving credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of certain assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve the Company; acquire other companies; make loans, advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. In certain circumstances, the revolving credit facility also requires the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, not less than 1.00 to 1.00 for each period of twelve consecutive fiscal months of the Company. As of April 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

​

As of April 30, 2020, the Company had $500 million of borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, all of which are classified as long-term liabilities. This borrowing was a precautionary measure in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak. The Company subsequently repaid an aggregate of $500 million of its borrowing under the revolving credit facility in May and June 2020.

​

As of April 30, 2020, interest under the revolving credit agreement was being paid at an average rate of 2.13% per annum. The revolving credit facility also includes amounts available for letters of credit. As of April 30, 2020, there were outstanding trade and standby letters of credit amounting to $10.5 million and $5.2 million, respectively.

​

LVMH Note

​

As a portion of the consideration for the acquisition of DKI, the Company issued to LVMH a junior lien secured promissory note in the principal amount of $125.0 million (the “LVMH Note”) that bears interest at the rate of 2% per year. $75.0 million of the principal amount of the LVMH Note is due and payable on June 1, 2023 and $50.0 million of such principal amount is due and payable on December 1, 2023.

​

13

Table of Contents

ASC 820 requires the note to be recorded at fair value at issuance. As a result, the Company recorded a $40.0 million debt discount. This discount is being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the LVMH Note.

​

Unsecured Loans

​

On April 15, 2019, T.R.B. International SA (“TRB”), a subsidiary of Vilebrequin, borrowed €3.0 million under an unsecured loan (the “2019 Unsecured Loan”). During the term of the 2019 Unsecured Loan, TRB is required to make quarterly installment payments of €0.2 million. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the 2019 Unsecured Loan accrues at a fixed rate equal to 1.50% per annum, payable quarterly. The 2019 Unsecured Loan originally matured on April 15, 2024. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the bank agreed to amend the 2019 Unsecured Loan to suspend the March and June 2020 quarterly installment payments and add these payments to the balance due at the end of the loan term. The 2019 Unsecured Loan now matures on September 15, 2024.

​

On February 3, 2020, TRB borrowed €1.7 million under another unsecured loan (the “2020 Unsecured Loan”). During the term of the 2020 Unsecured Loan, TRB is required to make quarterly installment payments of €0.1 million. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the 2020 Unsecured Loan accrues at a fixed rate equal to 1.50% per annum, payable quarterly. The 2020 Unsecured Loan originally matured on March 31, 2025. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the bank agreed to amend the 2020 Unsecured Loan to suspend the June 2020 quarterly installment payment and add this payment to the balance due at the end of the loan term. The 2020 Unsecured Loan now matures on June 30, 2025.

Note 9 – Revenue Recognition

​

Disaggregation of Revenue

​

In accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company elected to disclose its revenues by segment. Each segment presents its own characteristics with respect to the timing of revenue recognition and the type of customer. In addition, disaggregating revenues using a segment basis is consistent with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker manages the Company. The Company has identified the wholesale operations segment and the retail operations segment as distinct sources of revenue.

​

Wholesale Operations Segment. Wholesale revenues include sales of products to retailers under owned, licensed and private label brands, as well as sales related to the Vilebrequin business. Wholesale revenues from sales of products are recognized when control transfers to the customer. The Company considers control to have been transferred when the Company has transferred physical possession of the product, the Company has a right to payment for the product, the customer has legal title to the product and the customer has the significant risks and rewards of the product. Wholesale revenues are adjusted by variable considerations arising from implicit or explicit obligations. Wholesale revenues also include revenues from license agreements related to the DKNY, Donna Karan, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Vilebrequin trademarks owned by the Company. As of April 30, 2020, revenues from license agreements represented an insignificant portion of wholesale revenues.

​

Retail Operations Segment. Retail store revenues are generated by direct sales to consumers through company-operated stores and product sales through the Company’s owned websites for the DKNY, Donna Karan, Wilsons, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Karl Lagerfeld Paris businesses. Retail stores primarily consist of Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY retail stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores. Retail operations segment revenues are recognized at the point of sale when the customer takes possession of the goods and tenders payment. E-commerce revenues primarily consist of sales to consumers through the Company’s e-commerce platforms. E-commerce revenue is recognized when a customer takes possession of the goods. Retail sales are recorded net of applicable sales tax.

​

Contract Liabilities

​

The Company’s contract liabilities, which are recorded within accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, primarily consist of gift card liabilities and advance payments from licensees. In some of its retail concepts, the Company also offers a limited loyalty program where customers accumulate points redeemable for cash discount certificates that expire 90 days after issuance. Total contract liabilities were $4.1 million, $6.3 million and $5.9 million at April 30, 2020, April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2020, respectively. The Company recognized $3.5 million in revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2020 related to contract liabilities that existed at January 31, 2020. The Company recognized $4.3 million in revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2019 related to contract liabilities that existed at January 31, 2019. There were no contract assets recorded as of April 30, 2020, April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019. Substantially all of the advance payments from licensees as of April 30, 2020 are expected to be recognized as revenue within the next twelve months.

​

Note 10 – Segments

​

The Company’s reportable segments are business units that offer products through different channels of distribution. The Company has two reportable segments: wholesale operations and retail operations. The wholesale operations segment includes sales of products under the Company’s owned, licensed and private label brands, as well as sales related to the Vilebrequin business. Wholesale revenues also include revenues from license agreements related to our owned trademarks including DKNY, Donna Karan, Vilebrequin, G.H. Bass and Andrew Marc. The retail operations segment consists primarily of direct sales to consumers through Company-operated stores, consisting primarily of Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores. Sales through Company-owned websites, with the exception of Vilebrequin, are also included in the retail operations segment.

Note 11 – Stockholders’ Equity

​

For the three months ended April 30, 2020, the Company issued no shares of common stock and utilized 42,195 shares of treasury stock in connection with the vesting of equity awards. For the three months ended April 30, 2019, the Company issued no shares of common stock and utilized 207,325 shares of treasury stock in connection with the vesting of equity awards.

​

Note 12 – Income Taxes

​

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $16.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2020. The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2019. Historically, the Company has calculated its provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to pre-tax income or loss, excluding discrete items, for the reporting period. Due to the uncertainty related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, the Company used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for the three-month period ended April 30, 2020. The Company will continue to evaluate income tax estimates under the historical method in subsequent quarters and employ a discrete effective tax rate method if warranted.

​

Note 13 – Canadian Customs Duty Examination

​

In October 2017, the Canada Border Service Agency (“CBSA”) issued a final audit report to G-III Apparel Canada ULC (“G-III Canada”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The report challenged the valuation used by G-III Canada for certain goods imported into Canada. The period covered by the examination is February 1, 2014 through October 27, 2017, the date of the final report. The CBSA has requested G-III Canada to reassess its customs entries for that period using the price paid or payable by the Canadian retail customers for certain imported goods rather than the price paid by G-III Canada to the vendor. The CBSA has also requested that G-III Canada change the valuation method used to pay duties with respect to goods imported in the future.

​

In March 2018, G-III Canada provided a bond to guarantee payment to the CBSA for additional duties payable as a result of the reassessment required by the final audit report. The Company secured a bond in the amount of CAD$26.9 million ($20.9 million) representing customs duty and interest through December 31, 2017 that is claimed to be owed to the CBSA. In March 2018, the Company amended the duties filed for the month of January 2018 based on the new valuation method. This amount was paid to the CBSA. Beginning February 1, 2018, the Company began paying duties based on the new valuation method. There were no amounts paid and deferred for the three months ended April 30, 2020, related to the higher dutiable values. Cumulative amounts paid and deferred through April 30, 2020, related to the higher dutiable values, were CAD$13.5 million ($9.7 million).

​

Effective June 1, 2019, G-III commenced paying based on the dutiable value of G-III Canada’s imports based on the pre-audit levels. G-III continued to defer the additional duty paid through the month of May 2019 pending the final outcome of the appeal.

​

G-III Canada, based on the advice of counsel, believes it has positions that support its ability to receive a refund of amounts claimed to be owed to the CBSA on appeal and intends to vigorously contest the findings of the CBSA. G-III Canada filed its appeal with the CBSA in May 2018.

Note 14 – Recent Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements

​

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

​

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This pronouncement changed how entities account for credit impairment for trade and other receivables, as well as for certain financial assets and other instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaced the “incurred loss” model with an “expected loss” model. Under the “incurred loss” model, a loss (or allowance) was recognized only when an event had occurred (such as a payment delinquency) that caused the entity to believe that a loss was probable (i.e., that it had been “incurred”). Under the “expected loss” model, an entity recognizes a loss (or allowance) upon initial recognition of the asset that reflects all future events that may lead to a loss being realized, regardless of whether it is probable that the future event will occur. The “incurred loss” model considered past events and current conditions, while the “expected loss” model includes expectations for the future which have yet to occur. The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 as of February 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not result in a material change to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

​

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,” which made a number of changes meant to add, modify or remove certain disclosure requirements associated with the movement among or hierarchy associated with Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modified the disclosure requirements with respect to fair value measurements based on the concepts in FASB Concepts Statement, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments to changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty have been applied prospectively in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments have been applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the initial year of adoption. The Company adopted the standard effective February 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not result in a material change to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

​

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customers Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is A Service Contract which addresses the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 aligned the accounting for costs incurred to implement a CCA that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Specifically, ASU 2018-15 amended ASC 350 to include in its scope implementation costs of a CCA that is a service contract and clarifies that a customer should apply ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs should be capitalized in a CCA that is considered a service contract. The Company adopted the standard effective February 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not result in a material change to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

​

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (“ASC 848”): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The standard is intended to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The guidance was effective upon issuance, and may be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not result in a material change to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

​

Issued Accounting Guidance Being Evaluated for Adoption

​

The Company has reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 15 – Subsequent Events

​

In May and June 2020, the Company repaid an aggregate of $500 million of its borrowings under its revolving credit facility as financial markets stabilized.

​

On June 5, 2020, the Company announced the restructuring of its retail operations segment including the closing of all Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass stores. Additionally, the Company will close all Calvin Klein Performance stores. In connection with the restructuring of the retail operations segment, the Company expects to incur an aggregate charge of approximately $100 million related to landlord termination fees, severance costs, store liquidation and closing costs, write-offs related to right-of-use assets and legal and professional fees. The Company expects the cash portion of this charge to be approximately $65 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Unless the context otherwise requires, “G-III,” “us,” “we” and “our” refer to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that year. For example, our fiscal year ending January 31, 2021 is referred to as “fiscal 2021.” Vilebrequin, KLH, KLNA and Fabco report results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by G-III. Accordingly, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH, KLNA and Fabco are, and will be, included in our financial statements for the quarter ended or ending closest to G-III’s fiscal quarter end. For example, with respect to our results for the three-month period ended April 30, 2020, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH, KLNA and Fabco are included for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. We account for our investment in each of KLH, KLNA and Fabco using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s retail operations segment uses a 52/53-week fiscal year. The Company’s three-month period ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 were both a 13-week fiscal quarter for the retail operations segment. For fiscal 2021 and 2020, the retail operations segment three-month periods ended on May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019 respectively.

Recent Developments

​

Restructuring of Our Retail Operations Segment

​

On June 5, 2020, we announced a restructuring of our retail operations segment, including the closing of all Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass stores. Additionally, we will close all Calvin Klein Performance stores. We have hired Hilco Global to assist in the liquidation of these stores, which will begin immediately or as stores reopen.

​

After completion of the restructuring, our retail operations segment will consist of 41 DKNY stores and 13 Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores, as well as the e-commerce sites for DKNY, Donna Karan, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Andrew Marc, Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass. Part of our restructuring plan includes making significant changes to our DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld store operations. In addition to the stores operated as part of our retail operations segment, as of April 30, 2020, Vilebrequin products were distributed through 104 company-operated stores, as well as through 63 franchised locations and e-commerce stores in Europe and the United States.

​

In connection with the restructuring of our retail operations, we expect to incur an aggregate charge of approximately $100 million related to landlord termination fees, severance costs, store liquidation and closing costs, write-offs related to right-of-use assets and legal and professional fees. A significant portion of these charges will be incurred during our second fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2020. We expect the cash portion of this charge to be approximately $65 million. We believe that this restructuring plan will enable us to greatly reduce our retail losses and to ultimately have this segment become profitable.

​

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

​

Outbreaks of COVID-19 were detected beginning in December 2019 and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The President of the United States has declared a national emergency as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Federal, state and local governments and private entities mandated various restrictions, including travel restrictions, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders and advisories, and quarantining of people who may have been exposed to the virus. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, and created significant disruption of the financial and retail markets, including a disruption in consumer demand for apparel and accessories.

​

Table of Contents

The COVID-19 pandemic has had multiple impacts on our business, including, but not limited to, the temporary closure of our customers’ stores and closures of our own stores in North America, a mandate to require our employees who work in our headquarters to work remotely and temporary disruption of our global supply chain. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business operations and results of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 resulting in lower sales, lower liquidity and higher leverage. COVID-19 could continue to have an adverse impact on our results of operations and liquidity, the operations of our suppliers, vendors and customers, and on our employees as a result of quarantines, facility closures, and travel and logistics restrictions. Even as businesses slowly begin to reopen as governmental restrictions are loosened with respect to stay at home orders and previously closed businesses, the ultimate economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain. We expect that our business operations and results of operations, including our net sales, earnings and cash flows, will be materially adversely impacted for at least the balance of fiscal 2021.

​

During this crisis we are focused on protecting the health and safety of our employees, our customers, and our communities. We have taken precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of COVID-19 to our employees, including temporarily requiring employees to work remotely and temporarily closing all of our retail stores. Requiring our employees to work remotely may disrupt our operations or increase the risk of a cybersecurity incident.

​

Most of our retail partners have closed their stores in North America, including our largest customer, Macy’s. Some of our customers, such as Costco and Sam’s Club, remain open for business. Our retail partners that have closed stores have asked to extend their payment terms with us. We continue to negotiate resolutions with our retail partners that are equitable and fiscally responsible for each of us. Certain of our retail partners have publicized actual or potential bankruptcy filings or other liquidity issues that could impact our anticipated income and cash flows, as well as require us to record additional accounts receivable reserves. In addition, we could be required to record increased excess and obsolete inventory reserves due to decreased sales or noncash impairment charges related to our intangible assets or goodwill due to reduced market values and cash flows.

​

There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of store closures and other business disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as its impact on the U.S. and global economies and on consumer willingness to visit stores once they re-open. Recently, consumer businesses have begun to re-open in many areas of the United States under governmental social distancing and other restrictions that are expected to limit the scope of operations compared to pre-COVID-19 business operations for an unknown period of time. These restrictions are expected to adversely impact sales even as retail stores continue to reopen. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on continued developments in the public and private responses to the pandemic. The continued impact of COVID-19 remains highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. New information may emerge concerning the severity of the outbreak and the actions taken to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact may change or become more restrictive if a second wave of infections occurs as a result of the loosening of governmental restrictions.

​

In response to these challenges, we have taken measures to contain costs that include, but are not limited to, employee furloughs, temporary salary reductions, reduced advertising and other promotional spending and deferral of capital projects. We are also reviewing our inventory needs and working with suppliers to curtail, or cancel, production of product which we believe will not be able to be sold in season. We have also been working with our suppliers, landlords and licensors to renegotiate related agreements and extend payment terms in order to preserve capital.

​

Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, we performed a quantitative test of our goodwill as of April 30, 2020 using an income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis methodology. The discounted cash flow approach requires that certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding industry economic factors and future profitability. We also performed quantitative tests of each of our indefinite-lived intangible assets using a relief from royalty method, another form of the income approach. The relief from royalty method requires assumptions regarding industry economic factors and future profitability. While no impairment was identified as of April 30, 2020 as a result of these tests, $370.0 million of our indefinite-lived trademarks could be deemed to have a risk of future impairment as there is limited excess fair value over the carrying value of the assets at April 30, 2020. The continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could give rise to global and regional macroeconomic factors that could impact our assumptions relating to net sales growth rates, discount rates, tax rates or royalty rates and may result in future impairment charges for indefinite-lived intangible assets.

We believe that we have sufficient cash and available capacity under our revolving credit facility to meet our liquidity needs. As of April 30, 2020, we had cash of approximately $616.2 million. Our cash balance included draw downs in March 2020 of $500 million under our revolving credit facility taken as a precautionary measure to provide us with additional financial flexibility to manage our business. In May and June 2020, we repaid an aggregate of $500 million of our borrowings under our revolving credit facility as the financial markets stabilized.

​

Overview

​

G-III designs, sources and markets an extensive range of apparel, including outerwear, dresses, sportswear, swimwear, women’s suits and women’s performance wear, as well as women’s handbags, footwear, small leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage. G-III has a substantial portfolio of more than 30 licensed and proprietary brands, anchored by five global power brands: DKNY, Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger and Karl Lagerfeld Paris. We are not only licensees, but also brand owners, and we distribute our products through multiple brick and mortar and online channels.

​

Our own proprietary brands include DKNY, Donna Karan, Vilebrequin, G.H. Bass, Eliza J, Jessica Howard, Andrew Marc and Marc New York. We sell products under an extensive portfolio of well-known licensed brands, including Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Kenneth Cole, Cole Haan, Guess?, Vince Camuto, Levi’s and Dockers. Through our team sports business, we have licenses with the National Football League, National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball, National Hockey League and over 150 U.S. colleges and universities. We also source and sell products to major retailers under their private retail labels.

​

We believe that the international sales and profit opportunity is quite significant for our DKNY and Donna Karan businesses. We are also expanding our DKNY business globally through our distribution partners in key regions. The key markets in which our DKNY merchandise is currently distributed include the Middle East, Russia, Indonesia, the Philippines, South East Asia and Korea, as well as in China where we operate through a joint venture. Continued growth, brand development and marketing in these key markets is critical to driving global brand recognition.

​

We operate in fashion markets that are intensely competitive. Our ability to continuously evaluate and respond to changing consumer demands and tastes, across multiple market segments, distribution channels and geographic areas is critical to our success. Although our portfolio of brands is aimed at diversifying our risks in this regard, misjudging shifts in consumer preferences could have a negative effect on our business. Our success in the future will depend on our ability to design products that are accepted in the marketplace, source the manufacture of our products on a competitive basis, and continue to diversify our product portfolio and the markets we serve.

​

Segments

​

We report based on two segments: wholesale operations and retail operations.

​

Our wholesale operations segment includes sales of products to retailers under owned, licensed and private label brands, as well as sales related to the Vilebrequin business. Wholesale revenues also include royalty revenues from license agreements related to our owned trademarks including DKNY, Donna Karan, Vilebrequin, G.H. Bass and Andrew Marc.

​

Our retail operations segment historically consisted primarily of direct sales to consumers through our company-operated stores. Prior to our restructuring of this segment, it was composed primarily of Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores, as well as a smaller number of Karl Lagerfeld Paris and Calvin Klein Performance stores. After completion of the restructuring, our retail operations segment will initially consist of 41 DKNY and 13 Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores, as well as the e-commerce sites for DKNY, Donna Karan, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Andrew Marc, Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass. Our ongoing plan for our retail business focuses on the operations and growth of our DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores, as well as our e-commerce business. Our plan is based on the assumed continued strength of the DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld brands, improved store productivity, changes in planning and allocation and improvements in gross margin and payroll leverage.

Trends

​

Industry Trends

​

Significant trends that affect the apparel industry include retail chains closing unprofitable stores, an increased focus by retail chains and others on expanding e-commerce sales and providing convenience-driven fulfillment options, the continued consolidation of retail chains and the desire on the part of retailers to consolidate vendors supplying them. In addition, consumer shopping preferences have continued to shift from physical stores to online shopping and retail traffic remains under pressure. All of these factors have led to a more promotional retail environment that includes aggressive markdowns in an attempt to offset declines caused by a reduction in physical store traffic. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have accelerated these trends.

​

We sell our products over the web through retail partners such as macys.com and nordstrom.com, each of which has a substantial online business. As e-commerce sales of apparel continue to increase, we are developing additional digital marketing initiatives on our web sites and through social media. We are investing in digital personnel, marketing, logistics, planning and distribution to help us expand our online opportunities going forward. Our e-commerce business consists of our own web platforms at www.dkny.com, www.donnakaran.com, www.wilsonsleather.com, www.ghbass.com, www.vilebrequin.com and www.andrewmarc.com. We also sell Karl Lagerfeld Paris products on our website, www.karllagerfeldparis.com. In addition, we sell to pure play online retail partners such as Amazon and Fanatics.

​

A number of retailers are experiencing financial difficulties, which in some cases have resulted in bankruptcies, liquidations and/or store closings, such as the announced store closing plans for Macy’s and Lord & Taylor, the announced bankruptcy filings of JCPenney, Neiman Marcus and other retailers and the potential bankruptcy of other retailers. The financial difficulties of a retail customer of ours could result in reduced business with that customer. We may also assume higher credit risk relating to receivables of a retail customer experiencing financial difficulty that could result in higher reserves for doubtful accounts or increased write-offs of accounts receivable. We attempt to mitigate credit risk from our customers by closely monitoring accounts receivable balances and shipping levels, as well as the ongoing financial performance and credit standing of customers.

​

Retailers are seeking to differentiate their offerings by devoting more resources to the development of exclusive products, whether by focusing on their own private label products or on products produced exclusively for a retailer by a national brand manufacturer. Exclusive brands are only made available to a specific retailer, and thus customers loyal to their brands can only find them in the stores of that retailer.

​

We have attempted to respond to trends in our industry by continuing to focus on selling products with recognized brand equity, by attention to design, quality and value and by improving our sourcing capabilities. We have also responded with the strategic acquisitions made by us and new license agreements entered into by us that added to our portfolio of licensed and proprietary brands and helped diversify our business by adding new product lines and expanding distribution channels. We believe that our broad distribution capabilities help us to respond to the various shifts by consumers between distribution channels and that our operational capabilities will enable us to continue to be a vendor of choice for our retail partners.

​

Tariffs

​

The apparel and accessories industry has been impacted by tariffs implemented by the United States government on goods imported from China. Tariffs on handbags and leather outerwear imported from China were effective beginning in September 2018, and were initially in the amount of 10% of the merchandise cost to us. The level of tariffs on these product categories was increased to 25% beginning May 10, 2019.

​

On August 1, 2019, the United States government announced new 10% tariffs that cover the remaining estimated $300 billion of inbound trade from China, including most of our apparel products. On August 23, 2019, the United States government announced that the new tariffs to go into effect would increase from 10% to 15%. The new 15% tariffs went into effect on September 1, 2019, although the additional tariffs on certain categories of products were delayed until December 15, 2019. The announcement followed an earlier proposal by the United States government that would have imposed 25% tariffs on the balance of inbound trade from China, but that were suspended pending trade negotiations with

23

Table of Contents

China. In January 2020, the U.S. and China signed their Phase One Deal that rolled back certain tariffs and postponed certain tariffs that had been scheduled to go into effect on December 15, 2020.

​

It is difficult to accurately estimate the impact on our business from these tariff actions or similar actions or when additional tariffs may become effective. For fiscal 2019, approximately 61% of the products that we sold were manufactured in China. For fiscal 2020, approximately 50% of the products that we sold were manufactured in China.

​

Notwithstanding the Phase One Deal, the United States government continues to negotiate with China with respect to a trade deal, which could lead to the removal or postponement of additional tariffs. If the U.S. and China are not able to resolve their differences, additional tariffs may be put in place and additional products may become subject to tariffs. Tariffs on additional products imported by us from China would increase our costs, could require us to increase prices to our customers and would cause us to seek price concessions from our vendors. If we are unable to increase prices to offset an increase in tariffs, this would result in our realizing lower gross margins on the products sold by us and will negatively impact our operating results. We have engaged in a number of efforts to mitigate the effect on our results of operations of increases in tariffs on products imported by us from China, including accelerating the receipt of inventory, diversifying our sourcing network by arranging to move production out of China, negotiating with our vendors in China to receive vendor support to lessen the impact of increased tariffs on our cost of goods sold, and discussing with our customers the implementation of price increases that we believe our products can absorb because of the strength of our portfolio of brands.

​

Results of Operations

​

Three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to three months ended April 30, 2019

​

Net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2020 decreased to $405.1 million from $633.6 million in the same period last year. Net sales of our segments are reported before intercompany eliminations.

​

Net sales of our wholesale operations segment decreased to $378.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2020 from $570.6 million in the comparable period last year. We experienced a significant decrease in net sales across substantially all of our brands due to the effects of restrictions on business and personal activities imposed by governments in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, most of our retail partners closed their stores in North America beginning in mid-March, 2020, including our largest customer, Macy’s. These closures were still in effect as of April 30, 2020, the end of our first fiscal quarter. The governmental restrictions imposed in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in significant increases in unemployment, a reduction in business activity and a reduction in consumer spending on apparel and accessories, all of which contributed to the reduction of our net sales which occurred during the second half of the three month period.

​

Net sales of our retail operations segment were $33.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to $81.9 million in the same period last year. This decrease primarily reflected the closure of our retail stores in March 2020 and reduced demand as a result of disruptions related to COVID-19. Same store sales decreased across all store brands due to the COVID-19 related store closures. Net sales of our retail operations segment were also negatively affected by the decrease in the number of stores operated by us from 296 at April 30, 2019 to 257 at April 30, 2020. The number of retail stores operated by us and, as a result, the net sales of our retail operations segment will be reduced significantly as a result of the restructuring of our retail operations segment.

​

Gross profit was $124.4 million, or 30.7% of net sales, for the three months ended April 30, 2020, compared to $236.1 million, or 37.3% of net sales, in the same period last year. The gross profit percentage in our wholesale operations segment was 29.6% in the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to 34.8% in the same period last year. The gross profit percentage in our retail operations segment was 35.9% for the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to 45.2% for the same period last year. Gross profit for both our wholesale and retail segment were negatively impacted by the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our net sales caused by closures of our retail stores and the stores of most of our retail partners. In addition, our wholesale gross profit percentage was negatively impacted as a result of recognizing certain fixed costs, primarily higher effective royalty rates, over a reduced sales base.

​

Table of Contents

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $154.6 million in the three months ended April 30, 2020 from $201.9 million in the same period last year. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to a decrease of $36.1 million in personnel costs including salaries, bonus, share-based compensation and payroll taxes as a result of employee furloughs and salary reductions implemented by us in response to the COVID-19. In addition, there were decreases of $10.2 million in advertising, $3.2 million in rent and facility costs and $2.8 million in third-party warehouse expenses. These decreases were offset, in part, by a $9.7 million increase in bad debt expense primarily related to allowances recorded against the outstanding receivables of certain department store customers that have publicly announced bankruptcy filings or potential bankruptcy filings. Selling, general and administrative expenses will be further reduced as a result of the restructuring of our retail operations segment, but will increase as we bring back furloughed employees as we respond to the re-opening of the U.S. economy.

​

Depreciation and amortization was $9.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to $9.5 million in the same period last year. The increase in expense is due to capital expenditures during the last twelve months.

​

Other loss was $2.1 million in the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to $0.6 million for the same period last year. This increase is primarily the result of recording $1.5 million of foreign currency losses during the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to $0.1 million during the three months ended April 30, 2019. In addition, we recorded $0.6 million in losses from unconsolidated affiliates during the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to $0.1 million of losses in the same period last year.

​

Interest and financing charges, net, for the three months ended April 30, 2020 were $10.4 million compared to $10.3 million for the same period last year. Borrowings were greater in the three months ended April 30, 2020 due to our borrowing of $500 million under our revolving credit facility during March 2020 as a precautionary measure to maintain our financial liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, interest expense was only slightly higher for the three month period because interest rates were lower during the three months ended April 30, 2020 as compared to the same period last year.

​

Income tax benefit was $16.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2020 compared to income tax expense of $2.6 million for the same period last year primarily due to our net loss position resulting from the significant decrease in net sales due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our effective tax rate increased to 29.5% in the current year’s quarter from 17.5% in last year’s comparable quarter primarily due to a U.S. federal net operating loss carryback to a tax year with a 35% federal tax rate compared to the current federal tax rate of 21% as well as a decrease in excess tax benefits in connection with the vesting of equity awards.

​

Historically, we calculated our provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to pre-tax income or loss, excluding discrete items, for the reporting period. Due to the uncertainty related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, we have used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for the three-month period ended April 30, 2020. We will continue to evaluate income tax estimates under the historical method in subsequent quarters and employ a discrete effective tax rate method if warranted.

​

Liquidity and Capital Resources

​

Cash Requirements and Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity

​

We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility to meet the cash requirements of our business. The primary cash requirements of our business are the seasonal buildup in inventories, compensation paid to employees, payments to vendors in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, maturities of debt and related interest payments and income tax payments. The rapid expansion of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a sharp decline in net sales and earnings in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, which has a corresponding impact on our liquidity. We are focused on preserving our liquidity and managing our cash flow during these unprecedented conditions. We have taken preemptive actions to enhance our ability to meet our short-term liquidity needs including, but not limited to, reducing payroll costs through employee furloughs and salary reductions, deferring certain lease payments, deferral of capital projects and drawing down on our revolving credit facility. In addition, we are closely monitoring our inventory needs and we are working with our suppliers to curtail, or cancel, production of product that we believe will not be able to be sold in season. We have also been working with our suppliers, landlords and licensors to renegotiate related agreements and extend payment terms in order to preserve capital.

In March 2020, in response to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, we borrowed an aggregate of $500 million under our revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure to provide us with additional financial flexibility to manage our business during the unknown duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In May and June 2020, we repaid an aggregate of $500 million of our borrowings under the revolving credit facility. As of April 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all covenants under our term loan and revolving credit facility.

We cannot be sure that our assumptions used to estimate our liquidity requirements will remain accurate due to the unprecedented nature of the disruption to our operations and the unpredictability of the COVID-19 outbreak. As a result, the impact of COVID-19 on our future earnings and cash flows could continue to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial condition depending on the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe we have sufficient cash and available borrowings for our foreseeable liquidity needs.

​

Revolving Credit Facility

​

We are party to a five-year senior secured credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $650 million (the “revolving credit facility”).

​

Amounts available under the revolving credit facility are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the revolving credit facility. Borrowings bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.75% or an alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of   (i) the “prime rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus a margin of 0.25% to 0.75%, with the applicable margin determined based on Borrowers’ availability under the revolving credit facility . As of April 30, 2020, interest under the revolving credit facility was being paid at the weighted average rate of 2.13% per annum. The revolving credit facility is secured by specified assets of us and certain of our subsidiaries.

​

In addition to paying interest on any outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, we are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the revolving credit facility with respect to the unutilized commitments. The commitment fee shall accrue at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitment.

​

The revolving credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of certain assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve G-III; acquire other companies; make loans, advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. In certain circumstances, the revolving credit facility also requires us to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, which may not be less than 1.00 to 1.00 for each period of twelve consecutive fiscal months. As of April 30, 2020, we were in compliance with these covenants.

​

As of April 30, 2020, we had $500 million of borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility that had been borrowed in March 2020 as a precautionary measure in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. In May and June 2020, we repaid an aggregate of $500 million of our borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

​

Term Loan

​

On December 1, 2016, we borrowed $350 million under a senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”). Additionally, on December 1, 2016, we prepaid $50 million in principal amount of the Term Loan, reducing the principal balance of the Term Loan to $300 million. The Term Loan will mature in December 2022.

​

26

Table of Contents

Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan accrues at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), subject to a 1% floor, plus an applicable margin of 5.25% or an alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of  (i) the “prime rate” as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus 4.25%, per annum, payable in cash. As of April 30, 2020, interest under the Term Loan was being paid at the average rate of 6.66% per annum.

​

The Term Loan is secured (i) on a first-priority basis by a lien on, among other things, our real estate assets, equipment and fixtures, equity interests and intellectual property and certain related rights owned by us and by certain of our subsidiaries and (ii) by a second-priority security interest in our and certain of our subsidiaries other assets, which will secure on a first-priority basis our revolving credit facility.

​

The Term Loan is required to be prepaid with the proceeds of certain asset sales if such proceeds are not applied as required by the agreement within specified deadlines. The Term Loan is also required to be prepaid in an amount equal to 75% of our Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the agreement) with respect to each fiscal year ending on or after January 31, 2018. The percentage of Excess Cash Flow that must be so applied is reduced to 50% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00, to 25% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than 2.75 to 1.00 and to 0% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than 2.25 to 1.00.

​

The Term Loan contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability, subject to certain exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of certain assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve G-III; acquire other companies; make loans, advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. As described above, the Term Loan also includes a mandatory prepayment provision with respect to Excess Cash Flow. A first lien leverage covenant requires the Company to maintain a level of debt to EBITDA at a ratio as defined in the term loan agreement. As of April 30, 2020, we were in compliance with these covenants.

​

LVMH Note

​

We issued to LVMH, as a portion of the consideration for the acquisition of DKI, a junior lien secured promissory note in favor of LVMH in the principal amount of $125 million (the “LVMH Note”) that bears interest at the rate of 2% per year. $75 million of the principal amount of the LVMH Note is due and payable on June 1, 2023 and $50 million of such principal amount is due and payable on December 1, 2023.

​

Based on an independent valuation, it was determined that the LVMH Note should be treated as having been issued at a discount of  $40 million in accordance with ASC 820 —Fair Value Measurements. This discount is being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the LVMH Note.

​

In connection with the issuance of the LVMH Note, LVMH entered into (i) a subordination agreement providing that our obligations under the LVMH Note are subordinate and junior to our obligations under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan and (ii) a pledge and security agreement with us and our subsidiary, G-III Leather, pursuant to which we and G-III Leather granted to LVMH a security interest in specified collateral to secure our payment and performance of our obligations under the LVMH Note that is subordinate and junior to the security interest granted by us with respect to our obligations under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan.

​

Unsecured Loans

​

On April 15, 2019, T.R.B. International SA (“TRB”), a subsidiary of Vilebrequin, borrowed €3.0 million under an unsecured loan (the “2019 Unsecured Loan”). During the term of the 2019 Unsecured Loan, TRB is required to make quarterly installment payments of €0.2 million. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the 2019 Unsecured Loan accrues at a fixed rate equal to 1.50% per annum, payable quarterly. The 2019 Unsecured Loan originally matured on April 15, 2024. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the bank agreed to amend the 2019 Unsecured Loan to suspend the March and June 2020 quarterly installment payments and add these payments to the balance due at the end of the loan term. The 2019 Unsecured Loan now matures on September 15, 2024.

​

Table of Contents

On February 3, 2020, TRB borrowed €1.7 million under another unsecured loan (the “2020 Unsecured Loan”). During the term of the 2020 Unsecured Loan, TRB is required to make quarterly installment payments of €0.1 million. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the 2020 Unsecured Loan accrues at a fixed rate equal to 1.50% per annum, payable quarterly. The 2020 Unsecured Loan originally matured on March 31, 2025. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the bank agreed to amend the 2020 Unsecured Loan to suspend the June 2020 quarterly installment payment and add this payment to the balance due at the end of the loan term. The 2020 Unsecured Loan now matures on June 30, 2025.

​

Outstanding Borrowings

​

Our primary operating cash requirements are to fund our seasonal buildup in inventories and accounts receivable, primarily during the second and third fiscal quarters each year. Due to the seasonality of our business, we generally reach our peak borrowings under our revolving credit facility during our third fiscal quarter. The primary sources to meet our operating cash requirements have been borrowings under this credit facility and, in prior years, cash generated from operations.

​

We incurred significant additional debt in connection with our acquisition of DKI. We had borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility of $500 million and $22.5 million at April 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We borrowed $500 million in March 2020 as a precautionary measure in connection with disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and repaid an aggregate of $500 million of those borrowings in May and June 2020. In addition, we had $300 million in borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan at both April 30, 2020 and 2019. Our contingent liability under open letters of credit was approximately $15.8 million and $18.1 million at April 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In addition to the amounts outstanding under these two loan agreements, at April 30, 2020 and 2019, we had $125 million of face value principal amount outstanding under the LVMH Note. As of April 30, 2020, we also had €4.1 million ($4.5 million) outstanding under the 2019 and 2020 Unsecured Loans.

​

We had cash and cash equivalents of $616.2 million on April 30, 2020 and $48.3 million on April 30, 2019.

​

Share Repurchase Program

​

Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of 5,000,000 shares. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions and prevailing stock prices, and are subject to compliance with certain covenants contained in our loan agreement. Share repurchases may take place on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, and would be made in accordance with applicable securities laws. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended April 30, 2020. We have 2,949,362 authorized shares remaining under this program. As of June 4, 2020, we had 48,052,834 shares of common stock outstanding.

​

Cash from Operating Activities

​

We used $73.1 million of cash in operating activities during three months ended April 30, 2020, primarily due to our net loss of $39.3 million, and decreases of $136.8 million in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, $75.5 million in customer refund liabilities and $13.1 million in operating lease liabilities. In addition, we had a non-cash charge of $16.4 million in deferred income taxes. These items were offset, in part, by decreases of $109.0 million in accounts receivable, $51.5 million in inventories and $13.9 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets and non-cash charges relating primarily to operating lease costs of $17.4 million and depreciation and amortization of $9.9 million.

​

The changes in operating cash flow items are generally consistent with our seasonable pattern. The decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities is primarily attributable to vendor payments related to inventory purchases and the payment of year-end bonuses in our first quarter. Our accounts receivable, customer refund liabilities and inventory decreased because we experience lower sales levels in our first and second quarters than in our third and fourth quarters. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated these trends in the first quarter. Our reported net loss for the quarter also contributed to the increase in use of cash in our operating activities.

​

Cash from Investing Activities

​

We used $8.3 million of cash in investing activities during three months ended April 30, 2020 for capital expenditures and initial direct costs of operating lease assets. Capital expenditures in the period primarily related to infrastructure and information technology expenditures and additional fixturing costs at department stores prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating lease assets initial direct costs in the period primarily related to payments of key money and broker fees.

​

Cash from Financing Activities

​

Net cash provided by financing activities was $501.4 million during three months ended April 30, 2020 primarily as a result of the net proceeds of $500 million in borrowings in March 2020 under our revolving credit facility that were drawn down a precautionary measure in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. In May and June 2020, we repaid an aggregate of $500 million of these borrowings.

​

Critical Accounting Policies

​

Our discussion of results of operations and financial condition relies on our consolidated financial statements that are prepared based on certain critical accounting policies that require management to make judgments and estimates that are subject to varying degrees of uncertainty. We believe that investors need to be aware of these policies and how they impact our financial statements as a whole, as well as our related discussion and analysis presented herein. While we believe that these accounting policies are based on sound measurement criteria, actual future events can, and often do, result in outcomes that can be materially different from these estimates or forecasts.

​

The accounting policies and related estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of April 30, 2020, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies, other than the adoption ASU 2016-13 as discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

​

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

​

There are no material changes to the disclosure made with respect to these matters in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020.

​

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

​

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and thus, are effective in making known to them material information relating to G-III required to be included in this report.

​

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

​

During our last fiscal quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

​

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2020 (the “Annual Report”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or future results. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those set forth in our Annual Report, except for the risk factors set forth below, which serve as an update to our risk factors contained in our Annual Report. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or future results.

​

The global health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has had, and the current and uncertain future outlook of the outbreak will likely continue to have, a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

​

Outbreaks of COVID-19 were detected beginning in December 2019 and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The President of the United States has declared a national emergency as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Federal, state and local governments and private entities mandated various restrictions, including travel restrictions, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders and advisories, and quarantining of people who may have been exposed to the virus. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant disruption of the financial and retail markets, including a disruption in consumer demand for apparel and accessories.

​

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and will likely continue to have, a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The effects of COVID-19 could affect our ability to successfully operate in many ways, including, but not limited to, the following factors:

​

| ● | the impact of the pandemic on the economies and financial markets of the countries and regions in which we operate, including a potential global recession, a decline in consumer confidence and spending, or a further increase in unemployment levels, has resulted, and could continue to result, in consumers having less disposable income and, in turn, decreased sales of our products;

| ● | “shelter in place” and other similar mandated or suggested isolation protocols, which have disrupted, and could continue to disrupt, brick-and-mortar retailers, including stores operated by us, as a result of store closures or reduced operating hours and decreased retail traffic;

| ● | difficulty accessing debt and equity on attractive terms, or at all, and a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions may affect our ability to access capital necessary to operate our business;

| ● | a prolonged disruption of our business may impact our ability to satisfy the terms of our revolving credit facility and Term Loan ,including the covenants contained in those agreements, which could constitute an event of default under the terms of the revolving credit facility and Term Loan, which may result in an acceleration of payment under those agreements;

| ● | our success in attempting to reduce operating costs and conserve cash;

| ● | our inability to obtain rent and other relief from our landlords with respect to closed retail stores, which may involve litigation or other disruptions;

| ● | the failure of our wholesale customers to whom we extend credit to pay amounts owed to us on time, or at all, particularly if such customers are significantly impacted by COVID-19;

| ● | the risk that even after the pandemic has initially subsided, social distancing measures and general consumer behaviors due to the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to impact mall and store traffic and the fear of COVID-19 re-occurrence could cause customers to avoid public places, such as malls and outlets, where the retail stores of our wholesale customers and our stores are located;

30

Table of Contents

| ● | obstacles and delays in re-opening company-owned stores as we may have to hire and train a substantial number of new employees as a result of the temporary furlough of our retail employees in the United States and the risk that some of those employees may seek employment elsewhere during the furlough; and

| ● | we may be required to revise certain accounting estimates and judgments such as, but not limited to, those related to the valuation of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets and deferred tax assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

​

As stated, COVID-19 has had and is continuing to have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition. The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted our worldwide sourcing operations in China and elsewhere. There is hardly anywhere in the world that is not being impacted by the effects of COVID-19. Travel within and between many countries has been restricted. The length of these travel restrictions is not certain at this time. Travel restrictions may impact our suppliers’ ability to obtain necessary materials and inhibit travel by our employees and our suppliers’ employees. As a result of any travel restrictions, potential factory closures, inability to obtain materials, disruptions in the supply chain and potential disruption of transportation of goods produced for us in China and other countries adversely impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, or threat or perceived threat of such outbreak, we may be unable to obtain adequate inventory from these regions, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Potential financial impacts associated with the outbreak include, but are not limited to, lower net sales in markets affected by the outbreak, the delay of inventory production and fulfillment, potentially impacting net sales, and potential incremental costs associated with mitigating the effects of the outbreak. As our suppliers open their factories for production, we will need to balance the production orders given to these factories against the demand for our products in the United States.

​

Restrictions on travel and group gatherings, the closing of restaurants, sports leagues and all forms of communal entertainment and the fear of contracting COVID-19 has materially adversely affected store traffic and retail sales. Many retail store chains and shopping malls closed their store operations beginning in March 2020 and have only recently begun to reopen on a limited basis. The restrictions imposed as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and the closing of retail stores in connection with the outbreak are causing a significant adverse effect on the economy in the United States and around the world. If the retail economy continues to weaken and/or consumers continue to reduce purchases in the near or long-term as a result of the negative effects of on the U.S. and worldwide economies caused by COVID-19, retailers may need to further reduce or limit store operations, close additional stores and be more cautious with orders. A slowing or changing economy as a result of the coronavirus outbreak and the governmental restrictions imposed in the United States and around the world as a result thereof would adversely affect the financial health of our retail, distributor and joint venture partners, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

​

If economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 outbreak worsen and our earnings and operating cash flows do not begin to recover, this could impact our ability to maintain compliance with our debt covenants and could require us to seek modifications to our term loan and revolving credit facility. In the unlikely event we are not able to obtain such modifications on acceptable terms, this would lead to an event of default and, if not cured timely, our lenders could require us to repay our outstanding debt. In that situation, we may not be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay lenders.

​

The COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing, and its dynamic nature, including uncertainties relating to the geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the restrictive actions that are being taken by governmental authorities in the United States and around the world to contain the outbreak or to treat its impact makes it difficult to forecast its effects on our fiscal 2021 results. Our results of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 reflected some of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and we expect that the results for our second quarter of fiscal 2021, and potentially for the balance of fiscal 2021, will likely reflect further impacts. It is difficult, if not impossible, at this time to predict the magnitude of the effect of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business and results of operations. However, we expect our results for fiscal 2021 to be materially adversely affected compared to fiscal 2020 as a result of the impact of COVID-19.

There are risks associated with the restructuring of our retail operations segment.

​

In June 2020, we announced a restructuring of our retail operations segment, including the closing of all Wilsons Leather, and G.H. Bass stores. Additionally, we will close all Calvin Klein Performance stores. We have hired Hilco Global to assist in the liquidation of these stores, which will begin immediately or as stores reopen. After completion of the restructuring, our retail operations segment will initially consist of 41 DKNY stores and 13 Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores, as well as the e-commerce sites for DKNY, Donna Karan, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Andrew Marc, Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass. Part of our restructuring plan includes making significant changes to our DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld store operations.

​

In connection with this restructuring of our retail operations segment, we anticipate incurring an aggregate charge of approximately $100 million relating primarily to landlord termination fees, severance costs, store liquidation and closing costs, write-offs relating to right-of-use assets and professional fees. A significant portion of these charges will be incurred during our second fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2020. We expect the cash portion of this charge to be approximately $65 million. We may incur additional costs during fiscal 2021 until the restructuring is completed which may include, among other costs, additional severance, lease termination, inventory liquidation or non-cash asset impairment costs. Additional costs and impairment charges could materially exceed our estimates. In connection with the restructuring of our retail business, we negotiated the termination of leases for a majority of our retail stores in return for certain cash payments made to lessors. There can be no assurance that we would be able to negotiate termination of any other leases if we should desire to do so.

​

As indicated, part of our restructuring plan includes the liquidation of our retail inventory. The ability to liquidate our retail inventory is currently severely limited by COVID-19 restrictions on retail businesses. Even as these restrictions continue to be loosened, our ability to liquidate retail inventory will still be adversely affected by the reduction in the disposable income of consumers, the reduced desire and ability of consumers to spend on apparel and accessories and the general turbulent environment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftereffects. In addition, we will face significant competition in the marketplace as retailers are opening their stores and are expected to reduce prices significantly in order to sell their excess inventory resulting from store closures and other COVID-19 related restrictions that were put in place in mid-March and have only recently begun to be modified. All of these factors may result in the reduction in the net proceeds we receive from the liquidation of our inventory and in the increase in the time period we need to close our stores, both of which would have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

​

We may not be able to complete the restructuring of our retail operations segment, including the closing of the substantial majority of the stores we currently operate, in the timeframe, on the terms or in the manner we expect. Any of the foregoing could also result in the cost of the restructuring exceeding our estimates. If the actual restructuring costs or impairment charges exceed our estimates, this could adversely impact our business, operating results, financial position and cash flows.

​

In addition, the announced restructuring involves numerous risks including, but not limited to:

​

| ● | the inability to bring back from furlough, hire or retain qualified personnel necessary for the orderly liquidation of inventory and closing of retail stores;

| ● | attrition beyond any planned reduction in workforce and/or a decrease in employee morale;

| ● | higher than anticipated write-offs of assets or lease termination, store closing and severance costs;

| ● | potential disruption of the operations of the rest of our businesses and diversion of management’s attention away from our other businesses and operations;

| ● | exposure to unknown, contingent or other liabilities, including litigation arising in connection with the restructuring;

| ● | a negative impact on our business relationships or reputation including, but not limited to, potential relationships with customers, suppliers, vendors, lessors, licensors, licensees and employees; and

| ● | unintended negative consequences from changes to our business.

​

If any of these or other factors impair our ability to successfully implement the restructuring, we may not be able to realize other business opportunities as we may be required to spend additional time and incur additional expenses relating to the restructuring that otherwise would be used on the development and expansion of our other businesses, which could adversely impact our business, operating results, financial position and cash flows.

The recently approved proposal to implement a national security law in Hong Kong may result in disruptions to our business operations in Hong Kong and additional tariffs and trade restrictions.

​

On May 28, 2020, China’s legislature approved a proposal to implement a national security law that would change the way Hong Kong has been governed since the territory was handed over by England to China in 1997. This proposal would increase the power of the central government in Beijing over Hong Kong, limit the civil liberties of residents of Hong Kong and could restrict their ability to conduct business in the same way as in the past on a go forward basis. A legislative committee will draft the law, a process that is expected to take a couple of months. The U.S. State Department has announced the U.S. would no longer consider Hong Kong to have significant autonomy from China which could end some or all of the U.S. government’s special trade and economic relations with Hong Kong. This may result in disruption to our offices and employees located in Hong Kong, as well as the shipment of our products from Hong Kong to the United States. Further, the U.S. may impose the same tariffs and other trade restrictions on exports from Hong Kong that it places on goods from mainland China. The potential disruption to our business operations in Hong Kong and additional tariffs and trade restrictions could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
