Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings- The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that are incidental to the conduct of its business. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the eventual outcome of any litigation, in the opinion of management, the amount of any potential liability with respect to current legal proceedings will not be material to results of operations or financial condition. As additional information becomes available, the Company will assess the potential liability related to its pending litigation and revise the estimates as needed. Merger with Retail Ventures, Inc. ("the Merger")- As of the effective time of the Merger, a subsidiary of DSW Inc. assumed the obligations under RVI’s guarantees related to discontinued operations. DSW Inc. may become subject to various risks related to guarantees and in certain circumstances may be responsible for certain other liabilities related to these discontinued operations. In the first quarter of 2015, the Company recorded a $2.0 million benefit from the final distribution from the bankruptcy debtor's estates related to the Filene's Basement's bankruptcy in 2011 within operating expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. Filene’s Basement- Following the Merger, a subsidiary of DSW Inc., Merger Sub, assumed RVI’s obligations under lease guarantees for three Filene’s Basement retail store locations for leases assumed by Syms in its purchase of Filene’s Basement in fiscal 2009. The remaining guarantee is described in more detail below: Union Square, NY- RVI guaranteed Filene’s Basement’s obligations for the Union Square location when RVI owned Filene’s Basement, and the landlord at the Union Square location brought a lawsuit against Merger Sub in the Supreme Court of the State of New York seeking payment under the guarantee of the lease (the lease is scheduled to expire in 2024). On February 27, 2015, the parties jointly entered into a Stipulation and Settlement Agreement that provides for the settlement and release of the guaranty litigation and certain claims arising from the Filene's/Syms bankruptcy. The settlement approximated the accrual. Contractual Obligations- As of January 30, 2016, the Company has entered into various construction commitments, including capital items to be purchased for projects that were under construction, or for which a lease has been signed. The Company’s obligations under these commitments were $5.2 million as of January 30, 2016. In addition, the Company has entered into various noncancelable purchase and service agreements. The obligations under these agreements were $28.6 million as of January 30, 2016. The Company has also signed lease agreements for 33 new store locations, expected to be opened in fiscal 2016 and 2017, with total annual rent of approximately $9.5 million. In connection with the new lease agreements, the Company will receive a total of $13.8 million of construction and tenant allowance reimbursements for expenditures at these locations.
