Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Description of Business | (A) Description of Business: Vince is a leading contemporary fashion brand best known for modern effortless style and everyday luxury essentials. Established in 2002, the brand now offers a wide range of women’s, men’s and children’s apparel, women’s and men’s footwear, and handbags. We reach our customers through a variety of channels, specifically through premier wholesale department stores and specialty stores in the United States (“U.S.”) and select international markets, as well as through our branded retail locations and our website. We design our products in the U.S. and source the vast majority of our products from contract manufacturers outside the U.S., primarily in Asia and South America. Products are manufactured to meet our product specifications and labor standards.
Basis of Presentation | (B) Basis of Presentation: The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with VHC’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, as set forth in the 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries as of May 2, 2015. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The amounts and disclosures included in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise indicated, are presented on a continuing operations basis. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary to make the information presented therein not misleading. The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily comparable to, or indicative of, results of any other interim period or the fiscal year as a whole. As used in this report, unless the context requires otherwise, “our,” “us,” “we” and the “Company” refer to VHC and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest-Imputation of Interest.” The standard requires deferred financing costs to be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts, instead of being presented as a deferred asset in the balance sheet. ASU 2015-03 does not change the recognition and measurement guidance for deferred financing costs. Once adopted, entities are required to apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years and early application is permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt the standard, effective February 1, 2015. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015 reflect the deferred financing costs as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of our long-term debt. Refer to Note 5, Long-Term Debt, for further information.
