Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Guess?, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, and the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income and cash flows for the three months ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they have been condensed and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The results of operations for the three months ended May 2, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015. The three months ended May 2, 2015 had the same number of days as the three months ended May 3, 2014. All references herein to “fiscal 2016,” “fiscal 2015” and “fiscal 2014” represent the results of the 52-week fiscal year ending January 30, 2016 and the 52-week fiscal years ended January 31, 2015 and February 1, 2014, respectively. Reclassifications The Company has made certain reclassifications to prior year amounts to conform to the current period presentation within the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. New Accounting Guidance In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance which raises the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations. Under this new guidance, a discontinued operation is (1) a component of an entity or group of components that have been disposed of or are classified as held for sale and represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results, or (2) an acquired business that is classified as held for sale on the acquisition date. This guidance also requires expanded or new disclosures for discontinued operations, individually material disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation, an entity’s continuing involvement with a discontinued operation following disposal and retained equity method investments in a discontinued operation. The Company adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended May 2, 2015. In May 2014, the FASB issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard which will supersede previous existing revenue recognition guidance. The standard creates a five-step model for revenue recognition that requires companies to exercise judgment when considering contract terms and relevant facts and circumstances. The five-step model includes (1) identifying the contract, (2) identifying the separate performance obligations in the contract, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations and (5) recognizing revenue when each performance obligation has been satisfied. The standard also requires expanded disclosures surrounding revenue recognition. The standard is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which will be the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2018, and allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. The FASB has proposed delaying the effective date by one year. If the proposal is approved, early adoption would be permitted as of the original effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements, including the choice of application method upon adoption. In August 2014, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and requires additional disclosures if certain criteria are met. This guidance is effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 2016, which will be the Company’s fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. In February 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which modifies existing consolidation guidance for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. This guidance is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015, which will be the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2017, and allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements, including the choice of application method upon adoption. In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring such costs to be presented as a deduction from the corresponding debt liability. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, which will be the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2017, and requires retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which would permit an entity to measure its defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the calendar month-end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal period-end for interim and annual periods. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, which will be the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2017, and requires prospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will adopt this guidance, but if adopted, this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
