COVID-19
Impacts related to the novel coronavirus global pandemic (“COVID-19”) have been significantly adverse for the retail industry, our Company, our customers, and our employees. We have experienced significant disruptions to our business due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related social distancing and shelter-in-place recommendations and mandates, which initially resulted in the temporary closure of a number of stores and furlough of our employees. During Fiscal 2021, as stores were impacted by negative mall traffic, we focused on our digital capabilities. As of January 30, 2021, the vast majority of our stores in North America had reopened, although we continue to see residual impacts on foot traffic and in-store revenues. As of January 30, 2021, essentially all of the stores in the United Kingdom and the ROI remained closed.
The Company files reports withimpacts of the SecuritiesCOVID-19 pandemic on our business are discussed in further detail throughout this Business section, Item 1A - Risk Factors, and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including annual reportsPart II - Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q10-K.
Strategy
Across our company, we aspire to create and other reports from timecurate leading footwear brands that represent style, innovation and self-expression and to time. The public may readbe the destination for our consumers' favorite fashion footwear. Each of our businesses has a strong strategic position grounded in a deep and copy any materials we file with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549.

The Company is an electronic filerstrength of our concepts and the SEC maintains an internet site at http://www.sec.govadvantages we have built over time have established long-lasting leadership positions that contains the reports, proxy and information statements, and other information filed electronically. The Company’s website address is http://www.genesco.com. The Company’s website address is provided as an inactive textual reference only. The Company makes available free of chargemake our footwear businesses outstanding on their own, but what they share through the website annual reportsbenefit of synergies, makes them even stronger together. We have aligned our business around six pillars; 1) build deeper consumer insights to strengthen customer relationships and brand equity, 2) intensify product innovation and trend insight efforts, 3) accelerate digital to grow direct-to-consumer, 4) maximize the relationship between physical and digital, 5) reshape the cost base to reinvest for future growth, and 6) pursue synergistic acquisitions that add growth and create shareholder value. We anticipate opening fewer new stores in the future, concentrating on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.

We have made acquisitions, including the acquisitions of Ethics alongthe Schuh Group in June 2011, Little Burgundy in December 2015 and Togast in January 2020, and anticipate that we may pursue acquisitions reactively rather than proactively until we recover further from the pandemic. We anticipate that potential acquisitions would either augment existing businesses or facilitate our entry into new businesses that are compatible with position descriptionsour existing footwear businesses and core expertise.
More generally, we attempt to develop strategies to mitigate the risks we view as material, including those discussed under the caption “Forward Looking Statements,” above, and those discussed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors". Among the most important of these factors are those related to consumer demand. Conditions in the economy can affect demand, resulting in changes in sales and, as prices are adjusted to drive sales and manage inventories, in gross margins. Because fashion trends influencing many of our target customers can change rapidly, we believe that our ability to react quickly to those changes has been important to our success. Even when we succeed in aligning our merchandise offerings with consumer preferences, those preferences may affect results by, for example, driving sales of products with lower average selling prices or products which are more widely available in the Company's boardmarketplace and thus more subject to competitive pressures than our typical offering. Moreover, economic factors, such as persistent unemployment, the effects of directors (the "Boardthe ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and any future economic contraction and changes in tax policies, may reduce the consumer’s disposable income or his or her willingness to purchase discretionary items, and thus may reduce demand for our merchandise, regardless of Directors" orour skill in detecting and responding to fashion trends.

Environmental Matters
Our former manufacturing operations and the sites of those operations as well as the sites of itsour current operations are subject to numerous federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to human health and safety and the environment. These laws and regulations address and regulate, among other matters, wastewater discharge, air quality and the generation, handling, storage, treatment, disposal, and transportation of solid and hazardous wastes and releases of hazardous substances into the environment. In addition, third parties and governmental agencies in some cases have the power under such laws and regulations to require remediation of environmental conditions and, in the case of governmental agencies, to impose fines and penalties. Several of the facilities owned by the Companyus (currently or in the past) are located in industrial areas and have historically been used for extensive periods for industrial operations such as tanning, dyeing, and manufacturing. Some of these operations used materials and generated wastes that would be considered regulated substances under current environmental laws and regulations. The CompanyWe are currently is involved in certain administrative and judicial environmental proceedings relating to the Company’sour former facilities. See Item 3, "Legal Proceedings" and Note 1316 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data".

ITEM 1A, RISK FACTORS
Our business is subject to significant risks. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes to those statements. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know about or that we currently consider immaterial may also affect our business operations and financial performance. If any of the events described below actually occur, our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations could be adversely affected in a material way. This could cause the trading price of our stock to decline, perhaps significantly, and you may lose part or all of your investment.
Competitive, Demand-Related and Reputational Risks
We are experiencing a material disruption to our business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and our sales, supply chain and financial results have been, and may continue to be materially adversely impacted.
Our business is subject to risks, or public perception of risks, arising from public health and safety crises, including pandemics, which have impacted, and may in the future impact, our wholesale and retail demand and supply chain. On March 18, 2020, we closed all of our North American stores and on March 23, 2020, we temporarily closed all our stores in the United Kingdom and the ROI in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our wholesale partner stores also closed or substantially reduced operating hours in March of 2020. Beginning on May 1, 2020, we began reopening some of our stores based on pertinent state and local orders, and as of August 1, 2020, we had reopened most of our stores, although some stores, notably in California, Canada, the U.K. and the ROI, have been subject to further closures for varying periods. The duration of any closures and their impact over the longer term are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic depend on future developments outside our control such as the spread of the disease and the effectiveness of containment efforts, as well as the timing and availability of effective medical treatments and the ongoing rollout of vaccines. Even if the COVID-19 pandemic does not continue for an extended period, our business could be materially adversely affected by several additional factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the following:
• | Reduced consumer demand and customer traffic in malls and shopping centers and reduced demand for our wholesale products from our retail partners; |
• | The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, including a recession, or the deterioration of economic conditions in the markets in which we operate, or an increase in unemployment levels could result in customers having less disposable income which could lead to reduced sales of our products; |
• | The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could further delay inventory production and fulfillment and our release or delivery of new product offerings or require us to make unexpected changes to our offerings; |
• | “Shelter in Place” and other similar mandated or suggested isolation protocols could disrupt not only our brick and mortar operations but our e-commerce operations as well, particularly if employees are not able to report to work or perform their work remotely; |
• | While we are making efforts to both maintain reductions in operating costs and conserve cash, we may not be successful in doing so; |
• | We are undertaking discussions with our landlords and other vendors to obtain rent and other relief, but we may not be successful in these endeavors. As a result, we may be subject to litigation or other claims; |
• | After the pandemic has subsided, fear of COVID-19, re-occurrence of the outbreak or another pandemic or similar crisis could cause customers to avoid public places where our stores are located such as malls, outlets, and airports; |
• | We have been forced to reduce our workforce, and as a result, there may be obstacles and delays in reopening stores which have remained closed as we may have to hire and train a substantial number of new employees; 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, long-lived assets and deferred tax assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations. |

COVID-19 has also had a significant impact on the countries, including China, from which we and our vendors source products. We and our vendors rely upon the facilities of third-party manufacturers in other countries to support our business. The outbreak has resulted in significant governmental measures being implemented to control the spread of the virus, including, among others, restrictions on manufacturing and the movement of employees in many other countries. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures designed to contain the spread of the virus, our and our vendors’ third-party manufacturers may not have the materials, capacity, or capability to manufacture our products according to our schedule and specifications. If third-party manufacturers’ operations are curtailed, we and our vendors may need to seek alternate manufacturing sources, which may be more expensive. Alternate sources may not be available or may result in delays in shipments to us from our supply chain and subsequently to our customers, each of which would affect our results of operations. While the disruptions and restrictions on the ability to travel, quarantines, and temporary closures of the facilities of third-party manufacturers and suppliers, as well as general limitations on movement are expected to be temporary, the duration of the production and supply chain disruption, and related financial impact, cannot be estimated at this time. Should the production and distribution disruptions continue for an extended period of time, the impact on our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.
Consumer spending is affected by poor economic conditions and other factors and may significantly harm our business, affecting our financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations.
The success of our business depends to a significant extent upon the level of consumer spending in general and on our product categories. A number of factors may affect the level of consumer spending on merchandise that we offer, including, among other things:
• | general economic and industry conditions, including the risks associated with recessions in the U.S. and Canada, and the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; |
• | weather conditions; |
• | economic conditions in the U.K and the ROI and the uncertainty surrounding, as well as the effects of, the withdrawal of the U.K. from the European Union (“Brexit”); |
• | energy costs, which affect gasoline and home heating prices; |
• | the level of consumer debt; |
• | pricing of products; |
• | interest rates; |
• | tax rates, refunds and policies; |
• | war, terrorism and other hostilities; and |
• | consumer confidence in future economic conditions. |
Adverse economic conditions and any related decrease in consumer demand for discretionary items could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The merchandise we sell generally consists of discretionary items. Reduced consumer confidence and spending may result in reduced demand for discretionary items and may force us to take inventory markdowns, decreasing sales and making expense leverage difficult to achieve. Demand can also be influenced by other factors beyond our control.
Moreover, while we believe that our operating cash flows and borrowing capacity under committed lines of credit will be adequate for our anticipated cash requirements, if the economy were to experience a continued or worsening downturn, if one or more of our revolving credit banks were to fail to honor its commitments under our credit lines or if we were unable to draw on our credit lines for any reason, we could be required to modify our operations for decreased cash flow or to seek alternative sources of liquidity, and such alternative sources might not be available to us. These same factors could impact our wholesale customers, limiting their ability to buy or pay for merchandise offered by us.
11
Failure to protect our reputation could have a material adverse effect on our brand names.
Our success depends in part on the value and strength of the names of our business units. These names are integral to our businesses as well as to the implementation of our strategies for expanding our businesses. Maintaining, promoting, and positioning our brands will depend largely on the success of our marketing and merchandising efforts and our ability to provide high quality merchandise and a consistent, high quality customer experience. Our brands could be adversely affected if we fail to achieve these objectives or if our public image or reputation were to be tarnished by negative publicity.publicity or if adverse information concerning us is posted on social media platforms or similar mediums. Failure to comply, or accusation of failure to comply, with ethical, social, health, product, labor, data privacy, and environmental standards could also jeopardize our reputation and potentially lead to various adverse consumer and employee actions. Any of these events could result in decreased revenue or otherwise adversely affect our business.
Our business involves a degree of risk related to fashion and other extrinsic demand drivers that are beyond our control.
The majority of our businesses serve a fashion-conscious customer base and depend upon the ability of our buyers and merchandisers to react to fashion trends, to purchase inventory that reflects such trends, and to manage our inventories appropriately in view of the potential for sudden changes in fashion, consumer taste, or other drivers of demand, including the performance and popularity of individual sports teams and athletes.demand. Failure to execute any of these activities successfully could result in adverse consequences, including lower sales, product margins, operating income and cash flows.
Our future success also depends on our ability to respond to changing consumer preferences, identify and interpret consumer trends, and successfully market new products.
The industry in which we operate is subject to rapidly changing consumer preferences. The continued popularity of our footwear and the development and selection of new lines and styles of footwear with widespread consumer appeal, including consumer acceptance of our footwear, requires us to accurately identify and interpret changing consumer trends and preferences, and to effectively respond in a timely manner. Continuing demand and market acceptance for both existing and new products are uncertain and depend on the following factors:
In assessing our response to anticipated changing consumer preferences and trends, we frequently must make decisions about product designs and marketing expenditures several months in advance of the time when actual consumer acceptance can be determined. As a result, we may not be successful in responding to shifting consumer preferences and trends with
Our results may be adversely affected by declines in consumer traffic in malls.
The majority of our stores are located within shopping malls and depend to varying degrees on consumer traffic in the malls to generate sales. Declines in mall traffic, whether caused by a shift in consumer shopping preferences or by other factors, such as COVID-19, may negatively impact our ability to maintain or grow our sales in existing stores, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Our results of operations are subject to seasonal and quarterly fluctuations, which could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our stock.
Our business is seasonal, with a significant portion of our net sales and operating income generated during the fourth quarter, which includes the holiday shopping season. Because of this seasonality, we have limited ability to compensate for shortfalls in
12
fourth quarter sales or earnings by changes in our operations or strategies in other quarters. A significant shortfall in results for the fourth quarter of any year could have a material adverse effect on our annual results of operations and on the market price of our stock. Our quarterly results of operations also may fluctuate significantly based on such factors as:
• | the timing of any new store openings and renewals; |
• | the amount of net sales contributed by new and existing stores; |
• | the timing of certain holidays and sales events; |
• | changes in quarter end dates due to the 53-week year; |
• | changes in our merchandise mix; |
• | weather conditions that affect consumer spending; and |
• | actions of competitors, including promotional activity. |
A failure to increase sales at our existing stores, given our high fixed expense cost structure, and in our e-commerce businesses may adversely affect our stock price and impact our results of operations.
A number of factors have historically affected, and will continue to affect, our comparable sales results and gross margin, including:
• | consumer trends, such as less disposable income due to the impact of economic conditions, tax policies and other factors; |
• | the lack of new fashion trends to drive demand in certain of our businesses and the ability of those businesses to adjust to fashion changes on a timely basis; |
• | closing of department stores that anchor malls or a significant number of non-anchor mall formats; |
• | competition; |
• | declining mall traffic due to changing customer preferences in the way they shop; |
• | timing of holidays including sales tax holidays and the timing of tax refunds; |
• | general regional and national economic conditions; |
• | inclement weather; |
• | new merchandise introductions and changes in our merchandise mix; |
• | our ability to distribute merchandise efficiently to our stores; |
• | timing and type of sales events, promotional activities or other advertising; |
• | our ability to adapt to changing customer preferences in the ways they digitally shop; |
• | access to allocated product from our vendors; |
• | our ability to execute our business strategy effectively; and |
• | other external events beyond our control, such as COVID-19. |
Our comparable sales have fluctuated in the past, including the composition of our comparable sales between store and digital, and we believe such fluctuations may continue. The unpredictability of our comparable sales may cause our revenue and results of operations to vary from quarter to quarter, and an unanticipated change in revenues or operating income may cause our stock price to fluctuate significantly.
Changes in the retail industry could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.
In recent years, the retail industry has experienced consolidation, store closures, bankruptcies and other ownership changes. In the future, retailers in the United StatesU.S. and in foreign markets may further consolidate, undergo restructurings or reorganizations, or realign their affiliations, any of which could decrease the number of stores that carry our products or our licensees’ products or increase the ownership concentration within the retail industry. Changing shopping patterns, including the rapid expansion of online retail shopping, have adversely affected customer traffic in mall and outlet centers, particularly in North America.centers. We expect competition in the e-commerce market will continue to intensify. As a greater portion of consumer expenditures with retailers occurs online and through mobile commerce applications,Growth in e-commerce could result in financial difficulties, including store closures, bankruptcies or liquidations for our brick-and-mortar wholesale customers who fail to successfully integrate their physical retail stores and digital retail may experience financial difficulties, including store closures, bankruptcies or liquidations.compete effectively in the e-commerce market. We cannot control the success of individual malls, and an increase in store closures by other retailers may lead to mall bankruptcies, mall vacancies and reduced foot traffic. A continuation or worsening of these trends could cause financial
13
difficulties for one or more of our segments, which, in turn, could substantially increase our credit risk and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our future success will be determined, in part, on our ability to manage the impact of the rapidly changing retail environment and identify and capitalize on retail trends, including technology, enhanced digital capabilities, e-commerce and other process efficiencies that will better service our customers. If we fail to compete successfully, our businesses, market share, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.
Our business is intensely competitive and increased or new competition could have a material adverse effect on us.
The retail footwear headwear, sports apparel and accessory markets are intensely competitive. We currently compete against a diverse group of retailers, including other regional and national specialty stores, department and discount stores, small independents and e-commerce retailers, as well as our own vendors who are increasingly selling direct-to-consumers, which sell products similar to and often identical to those we sell. Our branded businesses, selling footwear at wholesale, also face intense competition, both from other branded wholesale vendors and from private label initiatives of their retailer customers. A number of different competitive factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, including:
• | increased operational efficiencies of competitors; |
• | competitive pricing strategies; |
• | expansion by existing competitors; |
• | expansion of direct-to-consumer selling by our vendors; |
• | entry by new competitors into markets in which we currently operate; and |
• | adoption by existing retail competitors of innovative store formats or sales methods. |
Investments and Infrastructure Risks
We face a number of risks in opening new stores and renewing leases on existing stores.
We expect tomay open new stores, both in regional malls, where most of the operational experience of our U.S. businesses lies, and in other venues including outlet centers, major city street locations, airports and tourist destinations. We cannot offer assurances that we will be able to open as many stores as we have planned, that any new store will achieve similar operating results to those of our existing stores or that new stores opened in markets in which we operate will not have a material adverse effect on the revenues and profitability of our existing stores. TheIn addition to the risks already discussed for existing stores, the success of ourany planned expansion will be dependent upon numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
• | our ability to identify suitable markets and individual store sites within those markets; |
• | the competition for suitable store sites; |
• | our ability to negotiate favorable lease terms for new stores and renewals (including rent and other costs) with landlords; |
• | our ability to obtain governmental and other third-party consents, permits and licenses necessary to the operation of our stores or otherwise; |
• | the ability to build and remodel stores on schedule and at acceptable cost; |
• | the availability of employees to staff new stores and our ability to hire, train, motivate and retain store personnel; |
• | the effect of changes to laws and regulations, including wage, over-time, and employee benefits laws on store expense; |
• | the availability of adequate management and financial resources to manage an increased number of stores; |
• | our ability to adapt our distribution and other operational and management systems to an expanded network of stores; and |
• | unforeseen events, such as COVID-19, could prevent or delay store openings and impact our liquidity needed for store openings. |
Additionally, the results we expect to achieve during each fiscal quarter are dependent upon opening new stores and renewing leases on existing stores on schedule. If we fall behind new store openings, we will lose expected sales and earnings between the
14
planned opening date and the actual opening and may further complicate the logistics of opening stores, possibly resulting in additional delays, seasonally inappropriate product assortments, and other undesirable conditions.
Any acquisitions we make or new businesses we launch, as well as any dispositions of assets or businesses, involve a degree of risk.
Acquisitions have been a component of the Company’sour growth strategy in recent years, and we expect that we may continue to engage in acquisitions or launch new businesses to grow our revenues and meet our other strategic objectives. If any future acquisitions are not successfully integrated with our business, our ongoing operations could be adversely affected. Additionally, acquisitions or new businesses may not achieve desired profitability objectives or result in any anticipated successful expansion of the businesses or concepts, causing lower than expected earnings and cash flow and potentially requiring impairment of goodwill and other intangibles. Although we review and analyze assets or companies we acquire, such reviews are subject to uncertainties and may not reveal all potential risks. Additionally, although we attempt to obtain protective contractual provisions, such as representations, warranties and indemnities, in connection with acquisitions, we
Additionally, we have in the past and may decide toin the future divest assets or businesses. Following any such divestitures, we may retain or incur liabilities or costs relating to our previous ownership of the assets or business that we sell. Any required payments on retained liabilities or indemnification obligations with respect to past or future asset or business divestitures could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.
Further, acquisitions and dispositions are often structured such that the purchase price paid or received by us, as applicable, is subject to post-closing adjustments, whether as a result of net working capital adjustments, contingent payments (i.e., earn-outs) or otherwise. Any such adjustments could result in a material change in the consideration paid to or received by us, as applicable, in such transactions.
Goodwill recorded with acquisitions is subject to impairment which could reduce the Company's
profitability.In connection with acquisitions, the Company recordswe record goodwill on itsour Consolidated Balance Sheets. This asset is not amortized but is subject to an impairment test at least annually, where the Company haswe have the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If after such assessment the Company concludeswe conclude that the asset is not impaired, no further action is required. However, if the Company concludes otherwise, it iswe are required to determine the fair value of the asset using a quantitative impairment test that is based on projected future cash flows from the acquired business discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk the Company considerswe consider to be inherent in itsour current business model. The Company performsWe perform the impairment test annually at
Deterioration in the Company’sour market value, whether related to the Company’sour operating performance or to disruptions in the equity markets or deterioration in the operating performance of the business unit with which goodwill is associated, which could require the Companybe caused by events such as, but not limited to, COVID-19, could cause us to recognize the impairment of some or all of the $100.3$38.6 million of goodwill on itsour Consolidated Balance Sheets at February 3, 2018,January 30, 2021, resulting in the reduction of net assets and a corresponding non-cash charge to earnings in the amount of the impairment. During Fiscal 2018, the Company fully impaired goodwill attributed to Lids Sports Group and recorded a non-cash impairment charge $182.2 million.
The operation of the Company’sour business is heavily dependent on itsour information systems.
We depend on a variety of information technology systems for the efficient functioning of our business (including our multiple e-commerce websites) and security of information. Much information essential to our business is maintained electronically, including competitively sensitive information and potentially sensitive personal information about customers and employees.
Despite our preventative efforts, our IT systems and websites may, from time to time be vulnerable to damage or interruption from events such as difficulties in replacing or integrating the systems of acquired businesses, computer viruses, security breaches and power outages.
Our insurance policies may not provide coverage for security breaches and similar incidents or may have coverage limits which may not be adequate to reimburse us for losses caused by security breaches. We also rely on certain hardware and software
vendors, including cloud-service providers, to maintain and periodically upgrade many of these systems so that they can continue to support our business. The software programs supporting many of our systems wereare licensed to the Companyus by independent software developers. The inability of theseour employees and developers or the Companyour inability to continue to maintain and upgrade these information systems and software programs could disrupt or reduce the efficiency of our operations. In addition, costs and potential problems and interruptions associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems and technology or with maintenance or adequate support of existing systems could also disrupt or reduce the efficiency of our operations or leave the Companyus vulnerable to security breaches.
We also rely heavily on our information technology staff. If we cannot meet our staffing needs in this area, we may not be able to fulfill our technology initiatives or to provide maintenance on existing systems.
We are subject to payment-related risks that could increase our operating costs, expose us to fraud or theft, subject us to fraud or theft, subject us to potential liability and potentially disrupt our business.
As a retailer who accepts payments using a variety of methods, including credit and debit cards, installment payment methods, PayPal, and gift cards, the Company iswe are subject to rules, regulations, contractual obligations and compliance requirements, including payment network rules and operating guidelines, data security standards and certification requirements, and rules governing electronic funds transfers. The regulatory environment related to information security and privacy is increasingly rigorous, with new and constantly changing requirements applicable to our business, such as the European Union's General Protection Regulation
The payment methods that we offer also subject us to potential fraud and theft by persons who seek to obtain unauthorized access to or exploit any weaknesses that may exist in the payment systems. The payment card industry established October 1, 2015 as the date on which it shifted liability for certain transactions to retailers who are not able to accept EMV card transactions. The CompanyWe completed the implementation of EMVEuropay, Mastercard and Visa ("EMV") technology and received certification in Fiscal 2018,2018; however future upgrades to theour Company's systems could expose the Companyus to the fraudulent use of credit cards and increased costs, including possible fines and restrictions on theour Company's ability to accept payments by credit or debit cards, if the Companywe were not to receive recertification. Because we accept debit and credit cards for payment, we are also subject to industry data protection standards and protocols, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS”), issued by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council. Additionally, we have implemented technology in our stores to allow for the acceptance of Europay, Mastercard and Visa (EMV)EMV credit transactions and point-to-point encryption. Complying with PCI DSS standards and implementing related procedures, technology and information security measures require significant resources and ongoing attention. However, even asif we comply with PCI DSS standards and offer
16
EMV and point-to-point encryption technology in our stores, we may be vulnerable to, and unable to detect and appropriately respond to, data security breaches and data loss, including cybersecurity attacks or other breach of cardholder data.
In addition, the Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) is controlled by a limited number of vendors who have the ability to impose changes in the Payment Card Industry’sPCI’s fee structure and operational requirements on us without negotiation. Such changes in fees and operational requirements may result in our failure to comply with PCI DSS, as well asand cause us to incur significant unanticipated expenses.
A privacy breach, through a cybersecurity incident or otherwise, or failure to comply with privacy laws could materially adversely affect our business.
As part of normal operations, we and our third-party vendors and partners, receive and maintain confidential and personally identifiable information (“PII”) about our customers and employees, and confidential financial, intellectual property, and other information. We regard the protection of our customer, employee, and company information as critical. The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is very demanding, with the frequent imposition of new and changing requirements some of which involve significant costs to implement and significant penalties if not followed properly. Despite our efforts and technology to secure our computer network and systems, a cybersecurity breach, whether targeted, random, or inadvertent, and whether at the hands of cyber criminals, hackers, rogue employees or other persons, may occur and could go undetected for a period of time, resulting in a material disruption of our computer network, a loss of information valuable to our business, including without limitation customer or employee personally identifiable information,PII, and/or theft. A similar cybersecurity breach to the computer networks and systems of our third-party vendors and partners, including those that are cloud-based, over which we have no control, may occur, leadingand could lead to a material disruption of our computer network and/or the areas of our business that are dependent on the support, services and other products provided by our third-party vendors and partners whichpartners. Our computer networks and our business may be adversely affected by such a breach of our third-party vendors and partners, which could result in a decrease in our e-commerce sales and/or a loss of information valuable to our business, including, without limitation, customerPII of customers or employee personally identifiable information.employees. Such a cyber-incident could result in any of the following:
• | theft, destruction, loss, misappropriation, or release of confidential financial and other data, intellectual property, customer awards, or customer or employee information, including PII such as payment card information, email addresses, passwords, social security numbers, home addresses, or health information; |
• | operational or business delays resulting from the disruption of our e-commerce sites, computer networks or the computer networks of our third-party vendors and partners and subsequent material clean-up and mitigation costs and activities; |
• | negative publicity resulting in material reputation or brand damage with our customers, vendors, third-party partners or industry peers; |
• | loss of sales, including those generated through our e-commerce websites; and |
• | governmental penalties, fines and/or enforcement actions, payment and industry penalties and fines and/or class action and other lawsuits. |
Any of the above risks, individually or in aggregation, could materially damage our reputation and result in lost sales, governmental and payment card industry fines, and/or class action and other lawsuits, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.lawsuits. Although we carry cybersecurity insurance, in the event of a cyber-incident, that insurance may not be extensive enough or adequate in scope of coverage or amount to reimburse us for damages we may incur. Further, a significant breach of federal, state, provincial, local or international privacy laws could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, financial position, resultsreputation.

Operational, Supply Chain and Third PartyThird-Party Risks
Increased operating costs, including those resulting from potential increases in the minimum wage, could have an adverse effect on our results.
Increased operating costs, including those resulting from potential increases in the minimum wage or wage increases reflecting competition in relevant labor markets, store occupancy costs, distribution center costs and other expense items, including healthcare costs, may reduce our operating margin, and by makingmake it more difficult to identify new store locations that we believe will meet our investment return requirements and slow our ability to open stores.requirements. In addition, other employment and healthcare law changes may increase the cost of provided retirement pension and healthcare benefits expenses. Increases in the Company’sour overall employment costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial and competitive position.
If we lose key members of management or are unable to attract and retain the talent required for our business, our operating results could suffer.
Our performance depends largely on the efforts and abilities of members of our management team. Our executives have substantial experience and expertise in our business and have made significant contributions to our growth and success. The unexpected future loss of services of one or more key members of our management team could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, future performance will depend upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified employees, including store personnel and field management. If we are unable to do so, our ability to meet our operating goals may be compromised. Finally, our stores are decentralized, are managed through a network of geographically dispersed management personnel and historically experience a high degree of turnover. If we are for any reason unable to maintain appropriate controls on store operations due to turnover or other reasons, including the ability to control losses resulting from inventory and cash shrinkage, our sales and operating margins may be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain the personnel we need in the future.
The loss of, or disruption in, one of our distribution centers and other factors affecting the distribution of merchandise, including freight cost, could have a material adverse effect onmaterially adversely affect our business and operations.
Each of our operationsdivisions uses a single distribution center to handle all or a significant amount of its merchandise. Most of our operations’ inventory is shipped directly from suppliers to our operations' distribution centers, where the inventory is then processed, sorted and shipped to our stores, to our wholesale customers or to our wholesalee-commerce customers. We depend on the orderly operation of this receiving and distribution process, which depends, in turn, on adherence to shipping schedules and effective management
18
Our freight cost is impacted by changes in fuel prices, through surcharges. Fuel pricessurcharges and surchargesother factors which can affect freight cost both on inbound freight from vendors to our distribution centers and outbound freight from our distribution centers to our stores and wholesale customers. Increases in freight costs, including in connection with increased fuel prices, and surcharges and other factors may increase freight costs and thereby increase our cost of goods sold and our selling and administrative expenses.
An increase in the cost or a disruption in the flow of our imported products may significantly decreasecould adversely affect our sales and profits.
Merchandise originally manufactured and imported from overseas makes up a large proportion of our total inventory. A disruption in the shipping of our imported merchandise or an increase in the cost of those products may significantly decrease our sales and profits. We may be unable to meet our customers’customer demands or pass on price increases to our customers. In addition, if imported merchandise becomes more expensive or unavailable, the transition to alternative sources may not occur in time to meet demand. Products from alternative sources may also be of lesser quality or more expensive than those we currently import. Risks associated with our reliance on imported products include:
• | disruptions in the shipping and importation of imported products because of factors such as: |
• | raw material shortages, work stoppages, strikes and political unrest; |
• | problems with oceanic shipping, including shipping container shortages and delays in ports; |
• | increased customs inspections of import shipments or other factors that could result in penalties causing delays in shipments; |
• | economic crises, natural disasters, pandemics (including COVID-19), international disputes and wars; and |
• | increases in the cost of purchasing or shipping foreign merchandise resulting from: |
• | imposition of additional cargo or safeguard measures; |
• | denial by the United States of “most favored nation” trading status to or the imposition of quotas or other restriction on imports from a foreign country from which we purchase goods; |
• | changes in import duties, import quotas and other trade sanctions; and |
• | increases in shipping rates. |
A significantconsiderable amount of the inventory we sell is imported from the People’s Republic of China, which has historically been subject to efforts to increase duty rates or to impose restrictions on imports of certain products.
If we or our suppliers or licensees are unable to source raw materials or finished goods from the countries where we or they wish to purchase them, either because of a regulatory change or for any other reason, or if the cost of doing so should increase, it could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profits.
A small portion of the products we buy abroad is priced in foreign currencies and, therefore, we are affected by fluctuating currency exchange rates. In the past, we have entered into foreign currency exchange contracts with major financial institutions to hedge these fluctuations. We mightmay not be able to effectively protect ourselves in the future against currency rate fluctuations, and our financial performance could suffer as a result.fluctuations. Even dollar-denominated foreign purchases may be affected by currency fluctuations as suppliers seek to reflect appreciation in the local currency against the dollar in the price of the products that they provide. You should readSee Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Data protection requirements are constantly evolving and these requirements could adversely affect our business and operating results.
We have access to collect or maintain information about our customers, and the protection of that data is critical to our business. The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy continues to evolve and new laws are increasingly giving customers the right to control how their personal data is used. One such law is the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"). Our manufacturingfailure to comply with the obligations of GDPR and distributing operations are subject tosimilar U.S. federal and state laws, including California privacy laws, could in the risks of doing business abroad, particularlyfuture result in China,significant penalties which could affect our ability to obtain products from foreign suppliers or control the costs of our products.

on our business and results of operations. Our business operations may be adversely affected by the current and future political environment in the Communist Party of China. China’s government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to source products from China may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, raw materials, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. Under its current leadership, China’s government has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. There is no assurance, however, that China’s government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice. A change in policies by the Chinese governmentData protection compliance could adversely affect our interests by, among other factors: changes in laws, regulations or the interpretation thereof, confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports or sources of supplies, or the expropriation or nationalization of private enterprises. In addition, electrical shortages, labor shortages or work stoppages may extend the production time necessary to produce our orders, and there may be circumstances in the future where we may havealso cause us to incur premium freight charges to expedite the delivery of product to our customers. If we incursubstantial costs, forego a significantsubstantial amount of premium freight charges, our gross profit willrevenue or be negatively affected if we are unablesubject to pass on those charges to our customers.
We are dependent on third-party vendors and licensors for the merchandise we sell.
We do not manufacture the merchandise we sell. This means thatsell, and our Licensed Brands business is dependent on third-party licenses. Accordingly, our product supply is subject to the ability and willingness of third-party suppliers to deliver merchandise we order on time and in the quantities and of the quality we need. In addition, a material portion of our retail footwear sales consists of products marketed under brands, belonging to unaffiliated vendors, which have fashion significance to our customers. Our core retail hat and sports apparel businesses are dependent upon products bearing sports and other logos, each generally controlled by a single licensee/vendor. If those vendors were to decide not to sell to us or to limit the availability of their products to us, or if they become unable because of economic conditions, COVID-19, work stoppages, strikes, political unrest, raw materials supply disruptions, or any other reason to supply us with products, we could be unable to offer our customers the products they wish to buy and could lose their business to competitors.business. Additionally, manufacturers are required to remain in compliance with certain wage, labor and environment-related laws and regulations. Delayed compliance or failure to comply with such laws and regulations by our vendors could adversely affect our ability to obtain products generally or at favorable costs, affecting our overall ability to maintain and manage inventory levels.
The manufacture of our products and our distributing operations are subject to the risks of doing business abroad, including in China, which could affect our ability to obtain products from foreign suppliers or control the costs of our products.
While we have taken action to diversify our sourcing base outside of China, since a portion of our products are manufactured in China, the possibility of adverse changes in trade or political relations with China, political instability, increases in labor costs, the occurrence of prolonged adverse weather conditions or a natural disaster such as an earthquake or typhoon, or the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic or the outbreak of another pandemic disease in China could severely interfere with the manufacturing and/or shipment of our products and would have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our Licensed Brands business operations may be adversely affected by the current and future political environment in China. Our ability to source products from China may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations (or the interpretation thereof), including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, raw materials, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. Under its current leadership, China’s Communist Party has been pursuing economic reform policies; however, there is dependentno assurance that China’s government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies without notice. Policy changes could adversely affect our interests through, among other factors: changes in laws and regulations, confiscatory taxation, restrictions on third-party licenses. The Dockers license agreement expires November 30, 2018. Ifcurrency conversion, imports or sources of supplies, or the Company isexpropriation or nationalization of private enterprises. In addition, electrical shortages, labor shortages or work stoppages may extend the production time necessary to produce our orders. There may be circumstances in the future where we may have to incur premium freight charges to expedite the delivery of product to our customers which could negatively affect our gross profit if we are unable to renew the license under satisfactory terms and conditions, the Company could lose approximately $70 million in sales from the loss of the footwear license.
Legal, Regulatory, Global and Other External Risks
Establishing and protecting our intellectual property the value ofis critical to our brands could be adversely affected.
Our ability to remain competitive is dependent upon our continued ability to secure and protect trademarks, patents and other intellectual property rights in the U.S. and internationally for all of our lines of business.businesses. We rely on a combination of trade secret, patent, trademark, copyright and other laws, license agreements and other contractual provisions and technical
Our business could be significantly harmed if we are not able to protect our intellectual property, or if a court found us to be infringing on other persons’others’ intellectual property rights. Any future intellectual property lawsuits or threatened lawsuits in which we are involved, either as a plaintiff or as a defendant, could cost us a significant amount of time and money and distract management’s
20
attention from operating our business. If we do not prevail on any intellectual property claims, then we may have to change our manufacturing processes, products or trade names, any of which could reduce our profitability.
Our business and results of operations are subject to a broad range of uncertainties arising out of world and domestic events.
Our business and results of operations are subjectmay experience a material adverse impact due to uncertainties arising out of world and domestic events, which may impact not only consumer demand, but also our ability to obtain the products we sell, most of which are produced outside the countries in which we operate. These uncertainties may include a global economic slowdown, changes in consumer spending or travel, increase in fuel prices, and the economic consequences of pandemics such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, natural disasters, military action or terrorist activities and increased regulatory and compliance burdens related to governmental actions in response to a variety of factors, including but not limited to national security and anti-terrorism concerns and concerns about climate change. Any future events arising as a result of terrorist activity or other world events may have a material adverse impact on our business, including the demand for and our ability to source products, and consequently on our results of operations and financial condition.
The increasing scope of our non-U.S. operations exposes our performance to risks including foreign, political, legal and economic conditions and exchange rate fluctuations.
Our performance depends in part on general economic conditions affecting all countries in which we do business. The British decision to exitbusiness, including the impact of Brexit. Although the U.K. and the European Union could(“E.U.”) entered into the E.U.-U.K. Trade and Cooperation Agreement on December 30, 2020, uncertainty remains about the impact on our business in the U.K. and the ROI, including impact on tariffs, shipping costs, consumer demand and currency rates, pricesfluctuations.
In addition, across all of our markets, we could be adversely impacted by changes in trade policies, labor, tax or other laws and regulations, intellectual property rights and supply chain.chain logistics. We are also dependent on foreign manufacturers for the products we sell, and our inventory is subject to cost and availability of foreign materials and labor. In addition to the other risks disclosed herein, demand for our product offering in our non-U.S. operations is also subject to local market conditions. As a result, there can be no assurance that Schuh's or our Canadian operations' future performance will not be adversely affected by economic conditions in their markets.
As we expand our international operations, we also increase our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. Sales from stores outside the U.S. are denominated in the currency of the country in which these operations or stores are located and changes in foreign exchange rates affect the translation of the sales and earnings of these businesses into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Additionally, inventory purchase agreements may also be denominated in the currency of the country where the vendor resides.
If the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to foreign currencies, the Company'sour revenues and profits are reduced when converted into U.S. dollars and the Company'sour margins may be negatively impacted by the increase in product costs. Although the Companywe typically hashave sought to mitigate the negative impacts of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations through price increases and further actions to reduce costs, the Companywe may not be able to fully offset the impact, if at all.
The Company’s success depends, in part,imposition of tariffs on its ability to manage these various foreign currency impacts as changes inour products could adversely affect our business.
Tax and trade policies, tariffs and regulations affecting trade between the value of the U.S. dollar relative toUnited States and other currenciescountries could have a material adverse effect on the Company’sour business, and results of operations.
21
Our ability to source our merchandise profitably or at all could be hurt if new trade restrictions are imposed, existing trade restrictions become more burdensome or disruptions occur at our suppliers or at the ports.
Trade restrictions, including increased tariffs, safeguards or quotas, on footwear, apparel and accessories could increase the cost or reduce the supply of merchandise available to us. We source our footwear and accessory products from foreign manufacturers located in Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, Pakistan, Portugal, Peru Romania, Taiwan, Tunisia and Vietnam, and our retail operations sell primarily branded products from third partiesthird-parties who source primarily overseas. The investments we are making to develop our sourcing capabilities may not be successful and may, in turn, have an adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations.
There are quotas and trade restrictions on certain categories of goods and apparel from
China and countries that are not subject to the World Trade Organization Agreement, which could have a significant impact on our sourcing patterns in the future. In addition, political uncertainty in the United States may result in significant changes toWe rely on our suppliers to manufacture and ship the products they produce for us in a timely manner. We also rely on the free flow of goods through open and operational ports worldwide. Labor disputes and other disruptions at various ports or at our suppliers could increase costs for us and delay our receipt of merchandise, particularly if these disputes result in work slowdowns, lockouts, strikes or other disruptions.
We are subject to regulatory proceedings and litigation and to regulatory changes that could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We are party to certain lawsuits, governmental investigations, and regulatory proceedings, including the proceedings arising out of alleged environmental contamination relating to historical operations of the Company and various suits involving current operations as disclosed in Item 3, "Legal Proceedings" and Note 1316 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. If these or similar matters are resolved against us, our results of operations, our cash flows, or our financial condition could be adversely affected. The costs of defending such lawsuits and responding to such investigations and regulatory proceedings may be substantial and their potential to distract management from day-to-day business is significant. Moreover, with retail operations in the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the Republic of Ireland and Germany,ROI, we are subject to federal, state, provincial, territorial, local and foreign regulations, which impose costs and risks on our business. Numerous states and municipalities as well as the federal government of the U.S. are proposing or implementinghave implemented changes to minimum wage, overtime, employee leave, employee benefit requirements and other requirements that will increase costs. Changes in regulations could make compliance more difficult and costly, and violationsfailure to comply with these requirements, including even a seemingly minor infraction, could result in liability for damages or penalties.
Financial Risks
Our indebtedness is subject to floating interest rates.
Borrowings under our credit facility bear interest at varying rates, some of which are based on LIBOR, and expose us to interest rate risk. If interest rates were to increase, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness referred to above would
22
increase even if the principal amount borrowed remained the same, and our net income and cash flows will correspondingly decrease.
In addition, on November 30, 2020, the International Exchange (ICE) Benchmark Association, which administrates LIBOR, announced that it intends to begin a phase out of LIBOR at the end of 2021, by ceasing (i) entering into new contracts that use LIBOR as a reference rate by December 31, 2021 and (ii) publication of two LIBOR rates (one-week and two-month) after December 31, 2021, while the remaining LIBOR rates (overnight, one-month, three-month, six-month and 12-month) will be retired on June 30, 2023. It is unclear if LIBOR will cease to exist at that time or changes in the interpretationif new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after 2023. The expected phase out of LIBOR could cause market volatility or application of existing accounting guidance coulddisruption and may adversely affect our financial performance.
Changes in our effective income tax rate could adversely affect our net earnings.
A number of factors influence our effective income tax rate, including changes in tax law, tax treaties, interpretation of existing laws, including the newly enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Act"), and our ability to sustain our reporting positions on examination. Changes in any of those factors could change our effective tax rate, which could adversely affect our net earnings and liquidity. In addition, our operations outside of the United States may cause greater volatility in our effective tax rate.
We continue to expect the creation of a one-time "transition tax" on untaxed

On February 10, 2020, we announced plans for our new corporate headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee. We entered into a lease agreement, which was subsequently amended, for approximately 182,000 square feet of office space which will replace our current corporate headquarters office lease. The term of the lease is 15 years, with two options to extend for an additional period of five years each. We believe that all leases of properties that are material to our operations may be renewed, or that alternative properties are available, on terms not materially less favorable to us than existing leases.
ITEM 3, LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) (the "Notice") regarding the site in Gloversville, New York of a former leather tannery operated by the Company and by other, unrelated parties. The Notice demanded payment of approximately $2.2 million of response costs claimed by EPA to have been incurred to conduct assessments and removal activities at the site. In February 2017, the Company and EPA entered into a settlement agreement resolving EPA's claim for past response costs in exchange for a payment by the Company of $1.5 million which was paid in May 2017. The Company's environmental insurance carrier has reimbursed the Company for 75% of the settlement amount,time, we are subject to a $500,000 self-insured retention. The Company does not expectlegal and/or administrative proceedings incidental to our business. It is the opinion of management that the matteroutcome of pending legal and/or administrative proceedings will have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Further information with respect to any other violations allegedthis item may be found in the complaint and that she can represent other employees only with respect to meal and rest break claims. The Company disputes the material allegations in the complaint and intends to continue defending the matter.

ITEM 7, MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONSThis discussionManagement’s Discussion and the notes to theAnalysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements as well asand related Notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and with Part II, Item 7 (“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, "Business", include certain forward-looking statements,2020, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2020, which include statements regardingprovides a discussion of our intent, belief or expectationsfinancial condition and all statements other than those made solely with respectresults of operations for Fiscal 2020 compared to historical fact. Actual results could differ materially from those reflectedour Fiscal 2019.
Summary of Results of Operations
Our net sales decreased 18.7% during Fiscal 2021 compared to Fiscal 2020. The sales decrease was driven by the forward-looking statements in this discussion and a number of factors may adversely affectimpact from the forward-looking statements and the Company’s future results, liquidity, capital resources or prospects. These include, but are not limited to, the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels, the timing and amount of non-cash asset impairments related to retail store fixed assets and intangible assets of acquired businesses, the effectiveness of our omnichannel initiatives, costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements, the level of chargebacks from credit card users for fraudulent purchases or other reasons, weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry, competition in the Company’s markets,COVID-19 pandemic, including online and including competition from some of the Company's vendors in both the licensed sports and branded footwear markets, fashion trends that affect the sales or product margins of the Company’s retail product offerings, weakness in shopping mall traffic and challenges to the viability of malls where the Company operates stores, related to planned closings of department stores or other factors, the effects of the implementation of federal tax reform on the estimated tax rate reflected in certain forward-looking statements, the imposition of tariffs on imported products or the disallowance of tax deductions on imported products, changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers, bankruptcies or deterioration in financial condition of significant wholesale customers or the inability of wholesale customers or consumers to obtain credit, disruptions in product supply or distribution, unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products, the effects of the British decision to exit the European Union, including potential effects on consumer demand, currency exchange rates, and the supply chain, the Company’s ability to continue to complete and integrate acquisitions, expand its business and diversify its product base, changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons, and the performance of athletic teams, the participants in major sporting events such as the NBA finals, Super Bowl and World Series, developments with respect to certain individual athletes, and other sports-related events or changes that may affect period-to-period comparisons in the Company's Lids Sports Group retail businesses. Additional factors that could affect the Company’s prospects and cause differences from expectations include the ability to build, open, staff and support additional retail stores and to renew leases in existing stores and control occupancy costs, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels, deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company’s market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences, unexpected changes to the market for the Company’s shares, variations from expected pension-related charges caused by conditions in the financial markets, costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions instore closures during the Company's information technology systems either by security breachesyear, lower store comparable sales and incidents or by potential problems associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems, and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations and environmental matters involving the Company.

However, on a dollar basis, expenses were flat. Earnings (loss) from operationsdecreased 15.8% in Fiscal 2021 compared to Fiscal 2020 due primarily to reduced occupancy expense, driven by rent abatements with landlords and government relief programs, as well as reduced selling salaries and bonus and travel expenses, partially offset by increased marketing expenses.

Significant Developments
COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic. As a result, and in consideration of the health and well-being of our employees, customers and communities, and in support of efforts to contain the spread of the virus, we have taken several precautionary measures throughout the year and adjusted our operational needs, including:
•On March 18, 2020, we temporarily closed our North American retail stores.
28
•On March 19, 2020, we initially borrowed $150.0 million under our Credit Facility as a precautionary measure to ensure funds were available to meet our obligations for a substantial period of time in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that caused public health officials to recommend precautions that would mitigate the spread of the virus, including “stay-at-home” orders and similar mandates and warning the public against congregating in heavily populated areas such as malls and shopping centers. We paid down the $150.0 million on September 10, 2020.
•On March 19, 2020, Schuh entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “U.K. A&R Agreement”) with Lloyds Bank which amended and restated the Amendment and Restatement Agreement dated April 26, 2017. The U.K. A&R Agreement included only a Facility C revolving credit agreement of £19.0 million, bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.2% per annum and expired in September 2020. In March 2020, we borrowed £19.0 million as a precautionary measure in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The U.K. A&R Agreement was replaced with the Facility Letter in October 2020 and the outstanding borrowings in the amount of £19.0 million were repaid.
•On March 23, 2020, we temporarily closed our stores in the United Kingdom and the ROI.
•On March 26, 2020, we temporarily closed our U.K. e-commerce business. Effective April 3, 2020, our U.K.-based Schuh business segmentsannounced that it had reopened its e-commerce operations in compliance with government health and safety practices.
•On March 27, 2020, we announced that we were adjusting our operational needs, including a significant reduction of expense, capital and planned inventory receipts. As part of these measures, we made the decision to temporarily reduce compensation for the executive team and select employees and reduced the cash compensation for our Board of Directors. In addition, we furloughed all of our full-time store employees in North America and our store and distribution center employees in the United Kingdom. We also furloughed employees and reduced headcount in our corporate offices, call centers and distribution centers. Across all these actions, this represented a reduction of our workforce by 90%.
•During a portion of the first and second quarters of Fiscal 2021, we extended payment terms with suppliers, managed inventory by reducing future receipts and reduced planned capital expenditures by over 50%. For new receipts as of August 1, 2020, we restored contractual payment terms with suppliers.
•On June 5, 2020, we entered into a Second Amendment to our Credit Facility to, among other things, increase the Total Commitments (as defined in the Credit Facility) for the revolving loans from $275.0 million to $332.5 million, establish a First-in, Last-out (“FILO”) tranche of indebtedness of $17.5 million, for $350.0 million of total capacity.
•On June 25, 2020, our Board of Directors considered the Company’s financial results to date and that more than 90% of the Company’s stores were expected to be reopened by June 30, 2020, and decided to restore a portion of the compensation of the executive team and select employees whose compensation had been reduced on March 27, 2020. In addition, the cash compensation of our Board of Directors, which had also been reduced on March 27, 2020, was partially restored.
•In October 2020, our Board of Directors restored the remaining portion of the compensation of the executive team and select employees whose compensation had been reduced on March 27, 2020 as well as the compensation of the Board of Directors.
•On October 9, 2020, Schuh entered into the Facility Letter with Lloyds under the U.K.'s Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme pursuant to which Lloyds made available a goodwill impairment chargeRCF of $182.2£19.0 million for the purpose of refinancing Schuh's existing indebtedness with Lloyds. The RCF expires in October 2023 and bears interest at 2.5% over the Bank of England Base Rate. As of January 30, 2021, we have not borrowed under the Facility Letter.
•During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2018.

•In December 2020, the Company returned the compensation to select employees whose compensation had been reduced on March 27, 2020.
As of March 11, 2021, we were operating in 90% of our locations, including approximately 1,145 Journeys, 160 Johnston & Murphy and two Schuh locations. All store locations are operating under enhanced measures to ensure the health and safety of employees and customers, including requiring employees to wear masks, requiring customers in our stores to wear masks, providing hand sanitizer in multiple locations throughout each store for customer and employee use, enhanced cleaning and sanitation protocols, reconfigured sales floors to promote physical distancing and modified employee and customer interactions to limit contact.
As a result of the Companyeconomic and its shareholders to focus on its industry-leading footwear businesses, which it believes is the optimal platform to deliver enhanced shareholder value over the long term.
Since the first quarter of Fiscal 2018,2021, we have withheld certain contractual rent payments generally correlating with time periods when our stores were closed and/or correlating with sales declines from Fiscal 2020. We continue to recognize rent expense in accordance with the Company identified qualitative indicatorscontractual terms. We have been working with landlords in various markets seeking commercially reasonable lease concessions given the current environment, and while some agreements have been reached, a number of impairment, including a significant declinenegotiations remain ongoing. During Fiscal 2021, we have recognized approximately $34 million in rent savings which included approximately $28 million of abatements pursuant to rent abatement agreements we have entered into with certain landlords.
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which among other things, provides employer payroll tax credits for wages paid to employees who are unable to work during the COVID-19 pandemic and options to defer payroll tax payments. Based on our evaluation of the CARES Act, we qualify for certain employer payroll tax credits as well as the deferral of payroll and other tax payments in the Company's stock pricefuture, which will be treated as government subsidies to offset related operating expenses. During Fiscal 2021, qualified payroll tax credits reduced our selling and market capitalization for a sustained period since the last considerationadministrative expenses by approximately $13.8 million on our Consolidated Statements of indicatorsOperations. We also deferred $9.5 million of impairmentqualified payroll taxes in the second quarterU.S. that will be repaid in equal installments by December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. Savings from the government program in the U.K. has also provided property tax relief of approximately $13.3 million for Fiscal 2018, underperformance relative2021. Additionally, we recorded a tax receivable of $107.2 million in our U.S. federal jurisdiction as a result of a carryback of our Fiscal 2021 federal tax losses to projected operating results,prior tax periods under the CARES Act. Due to a higher tax rate in prior tax periods than the current U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21%, the carryback claim creates a permanent tax benefit of $46.4 million.
We recorded our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and related liabilities based on our best estimates. As part of this process, we assessed the likelihood of realizing the benefits of our deferred tax assets. During Fiscal 2021, based on available evidence, we recorded an additional valuation allowance against previously recorded deferred tax assets in our U.K. jurisdiction of $2.6 million and our Irish jurisdiction of $0.2 million. We will continue to monitor the realizability of our deferred tax assets, particularly in certain foreign jurisdictions where the Lids Sports Group reporting unit, and an increased competitive environment in the licensed sports business.
The Acquisition of directors authorized an offer to vested former employees and active employees over the age of 62 in the Company's defined benefits pension plan to buy out their future benefits under the plan for a lump sum cash payment. The Company made the buyout offer in the third quarter of Fiscal 2017, and completed it in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2017. The Company incurred a one-time charge to earnings of $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2017 in connection with the pension plan buyout. The Company initiated the buyout offer in an effort to lower the Company's risk exposure to the pension plan by lowering the Plan's assets and liabilities.
Effective January 19, 2016, the Company completed the sale of the assets of the Lids Team Sports business, which had operated within its Lids Sports Group segment, to BSN Sports, LLC. In Fiscal 2016, the Company recognized a gain on the sale of $4.7 million, net of transaction-related expenses before tax. In Fiscal 2017, the Company recognized an additional pretax gain of $2.4 million on the sale of Lids Team Sports related to final working capital adjustments. The sale of Lids Team Sports was not a strategic shift that would have a major effect on operations and financial results, and therefore this business was not presented as a discontinued operation in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

with the Togast acquisition. The acquisition expands our portfolio to include footwear licenses for a total purchase price of $35.1 million. The stores acquired are operated within the Journeys Group.
Asset Impairment and Other Charges
We recorded a pretax charge to earnings of $8.8$18.7 million in Fiscal 2018,2021, including $5.2 million in licensing termination expenses, $2.7$13.8 million for retail store asset impairments and $0.9$5.3 million for hurricane losses.
Postretirement Benefit Liability
In March 2019, our board of directors authorized the termination of the defined benefit pension plan. The Company recordedtermination was completed in January 2020 with a pretax gainpension settlement charge of $11.5 million which is included in asset impairments and other, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for Fiscal 2020.
Key Performance Indicators
In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key performance indicators we use to earningsevaluate the financial condition and operating performance of $(0.8)our business are comparable sales, net sales, gross margin, operating income (loss) and operating margin. These key performance indicators should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the U.S. GAAP financial measures presented herein. These measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled performance indicators used by other companies.
Comparable Sales
We consider comparable sales to be an important indicator of our current performance, and investors may find it useful as such. Comparable sales results are important to achieve leveraging of our costs, including occupancy, selling salaries, depreciation, etc. Comparable sales also have a direct impact on our total net revenue, cash and working capital. We define "comparable sales" as sales from stores open longer than one year, beginning with the first day a store has comparable sales (which we refer to in this report as "same store sales"), and sales from websites operated longer than one year and direct mail catalog sales (which we refer to in this report as "comparable direct sales"). Temporarily closed stores are excluded from the comparable sales calculation if closed for more than seven days. Expanded stores are excluded from the comparable sales calculation until the first day an expanded store has comparable prior year sales. Current year foreign exchange rates are applied to both current year and prior year comparable sales to achieve a consistent basis for comparison. We have not disclosed comparable sales for Fiscal 2021 because we believe that overall sales are a more meaningful metric during this period due to the impact of COVID-19.
Results of Operations—Fiscal 2021 Compared to Fiscal 2020
Our net sales for Fiscal 2021 decreased 18.7% to $1.79 billion from $2.20 billion in Fiscal 2020. The decrease in net sales was driven by the impact from store closures during the year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, lower store comparable sales and sales pressure at Johnston & Murphy, partially offset by digital comparable growth of 74%. Stores were open about 76% of possible days during Fiscal 2021.
Gross margin decreased 24.3% to $804.5 million in Fiscal 2017, including2021 from $1.06 billion in Fiscal 2020, and decreased as a gainpercentage of $(8.9) million for network intrusion expensesnet sales from 48.4% in Fiscal 2020 to 45.0% in Fiscal 2021, reflecting gross margin decreases as a percentage of net sales in all of our business units, except Journeys Group. The gross margin decrease is primarily due to higher shipping and warehouse expense in all of our retail divisions, increased inventory reserves at Johnston & Murphy Group, increased markdowns at Johnston & Murphy retail and closeouts at Johnston & Murphy wholesale and increased promotional activity at Schuh Group, partially offset by decreased markdowns at Journeys Group. The higher shipping and warehouse expense is a result of the increased
31
penetration of e-commerce sales. In addition, changes in sales mix among our business units had an unfavorable impact on gross margin.
Selling and administrative expenses increased as a litigation settlementpercentage of net sales from 44.0% in Fiscal 2020 to 45.6% in Fiscal 2021, but decreased 15.8% in total dollars due primarily to reduced occupancy expense, driven by rent abatements with landlords and a gain of $(0.8) million for other legal matters,government relief programs, as well as reduced selling salaries and bonus and travel expenses, partially offset by $6.4increased marketing expenses. Explanations of the changes in results of operations are provided by business segment in discussions following these introductory paragraphs.
Earnings (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes (“pretax earnings (loss)”) for Fiscal 2021 was a pretax loss of $(111.7) million, compared to pretax earnings of $82.4 million for Fiscal 2020. The pretax loss for Fiscal 2021 included a goodwill impairment charge of $79.3 million and an asset impairment and other charge of $18.7 million for retail store asset impairments and $2.5a trademark impairment, partially offset by a gain for the release of an earnout related to the Togast acquisition. Pretax earnings for Fiscal 2020 included an asset impairment and other charge of $13.4 million for pension settlement expense.
The net loss for Fiscal 2021 was $(56.4) million, or $(3.97) diluted loss per share compared to $6.3net earnings of $61.4 million, or $3.92 diluted earnings per share for Fiscal 2020. The effective income tax rate was 49.8% for Fiscal 2021 compared to 25.1% for Fiscal 2020. The effective tax rate for Fiscal 2021 was higher compared to Fiscal 2020 due to initiatives under the CARES Act and taxes accrued for the U.S. jurisdiction, partially offset by the non-deductibility of the goodwill impairment charge and our performance in foreign jurisdictions for which no income tax benefit or expense is recorded for Fiscal 2021. See Item 8, Note 12, "Income Taxes", to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

Net sales from Journeys Group decreased 15.9% to $1.23 billion for Fiscal 2021 compared to $1.46 billion for Fiscal 2020, primarily due to store closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower store comparable sales, reflecting decreased store traffic, partially offset by increased digital comparable growth. The store count for Journeys Group was 1,159 stores at the end of Fiscal 20172021, including 233 Journeys Kidz stores, 47 Journeys stores in Canada and a pension asset of $0.7 million was recorded38 Little Burgundy stores in Canada, compared to 1,171 stores at the end of Fiscal 2018.

Journeys Group operating income for Fiscal 2021 decreased 33.1% to $76.9 million, compared to $114.9 million for Fiscal 2020. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to decreased net sales and increased expenses as a percentage of net sales, reflecting increased occupancy, marketing, depreciation, freight and compensation expenses, partially offset by decreased bonus expenses and selling salaries. Gross margin for Fiscal 2021 increased slightly as a percentage of net sales, primarily reflecting decreased markdowns, partially offset by higher shipping and warehouse expense from higher e-commerce sales.

Net sales from the Schuh Group decreased 18.2% to $305.9 million for Fiscal 2021, compared to $373.9 million for Fiscal 2020, primarily due to store closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower store comparable sales, partially offset by increased digital comparable growth and the favorable impact of $4.9 million due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Schuh Group operated 123 stores at the end of Fiscal 2021 compared to 129 stores at the end of Fiscal 2020.
Schuh Group had an operating loss of $(11.6) million in Fiscal 2021 compared to operating income of $4.7 million for Fiscal 2020. The decrease in earnings this year reflects decreased net sales and decreased gross margin as a percentage of net sales, reflecting higher shipping and warehouse expense from higher e-commerce sales and increased promotional activity. Schuh Group’s selling and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales this year, reflecting decreased occupancy expense, as a result of savings from the government program in the U.K. providing property tax relief and rent abatement agreements with our landlords, and decreased selling salaries, partially offset by increased marketing, compensation and credit card expenses and professional fees. In addition, Schuh Group's operating loss included a favorable impact of $1.1 million for Fiscal 2021 due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Johnston & Murphy Group net sales decreased 49.2% to $152.9 million for Fiscal 2021 from $300.9 million for Fiscal 2020 primarily due to lower store comparable sales, store closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower wholesale sales, partially offset by increased digital comparable growth. Retail operations accounted for 77.6% of Johnston & Murphy Group's sales in Fiscal 2021, up from 75.8% in Fiscal 2020. The store count for Johnston & Murphy retail operations at the end of Fiscal 2021 included 178 Johnston & Murphy shops and factory stores, including eight stores in Canada, compared to 180 Johnston & Murphy shops and factory stores, including eight stores in Canada, at the end of Fiscal 2020.
The operating loss for Johnston & Murphy Group for Fiscal 2021 was $(47.6) million compared to operating income of $17.7 million in Fiscal 2020. The decrease was primarily due to (i) decreased net sales (ii) decreased gross margin as a percentage of net sales, reflecting incremental inventory reserves, higher markdowns at retail, closeouts at wholesale and increased shipping and warehouse expense from higher e-commerce sales and (iii) increased selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales, reflecting the inability to leverage expenses on lower sales due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Licensed Brands’ net sales increased 61.2% to $99.7 million for Fiscal 2021 from $61.9 million for Fiscal 2020, reflecting increased sales related to the Togast acquisition, partially offset by decreased sales of Dockers footwear.
Licensed Brands’ operating loss increased from $(0.7) million for Fiscal 2020 to $(5.4) million for Fiscal 2021, primarily due to decreased gross margin as a percentage of net sales as the recently acquired Togast business carried lower margins than the historic business due to the impact of pre-acquisition royalty and commission cost on legacy Togast product sales and the COVID-19 pandemic impact. As the legacy Togast products comprise less of the overall sales mix of Licensed Brands, we expect the gross margin to improve. Licensed Brands’ selling and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales, reflecting multiple expense category fluctuations as a result of both acquiring the Togast business, which carries lower expenses as a percentage of net sales than the historic business, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including higher bad debt expense for Fiscal 2021. In addition, we benefitted from actions we took to restructure the Togast business and integrate post acquisition such as the elimination of a potential $34 million earnout in future years.
Corporate, Interest Expenses and Other Charges
Corporate and other expense for Fiscal 2021 was $119.5 million compared to $53.3 million for Fiscal 2020. Corporate expense in Fiscal 2021 included non-cash impairment charges of $79.3 million related to goodwill, $13.8 million related to retail store assets and $5.3 million for trademarks, partially offset by a $(0.4) million gain for the release of an earnout related to the Togast acquisition. Fiscal 2020 included a $13.4 million charge in asset impairment and other charges, primarily for pension liability adjustmentsettlement expense and retail store asset impairments, partially offset by a gain on the sale of $7.1the Lids Sports Group headquarters building, a gain on lease terminations and a gain related to Hurricane Maria. Corporate and other expense, excluding asset impairment and other charges, decreased 46% reflecting decreased bonus and compensation expenses and decreased professional fees.
Net interest expense increased to $5.1 million pretax in accumulated other comprehensive lossFiscal 2021 from $1.3 million in equity. Depending upon futureFiscal 2020 primarily due to increased average borrowings and lower interest rates on short-term investments.
Liquidity and returnsCapital Resources
The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have adversely affected our results of operations. In response to the business disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken actions described above in the “COVID-19 Update” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Working Capital
Our business is seasonal, with our investment in inventory and accounts receivable normally reaching peaks in the spring and fall of each year. Historically, cash flow from operations has been generated principally in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.

Reasons for the major variances in cash provided by (used in) the table above are as follows:
Cash provided by operating activities was $40.6 million higher for Fiscal 2021 compared to Fiscal 2020, reflecting primarily the following factors:
• | A $63.1 million increase in cash flow from changes in inventory, net of reserves, reflecting decreased inventory in all of our business segments for Fiscal 2021; |
• | A $40.0 million increase in cash flow from changes in accounts payable reflecting changes in buying patterns; |
• | A $28.9 million increase in cash flow from changes in other assets and liabilities and a $13.1 million increase in cash flow from changes in other accrued liabilities, both reflecting reduced rent payments since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic; partially offset by |
• | A $81.3 million decrease in cash flow from decreased net earnings, net of intangible impairment, discrete income tax benefits and inventory reserve adjustments. |
Cash provided by investing activities was $77.3 million lower for Fiscal 2021 reflecting the receipt of proceeds from the sale of Lids Sports Group in the prior year, partially offset by the acquisition of Togast in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020.
Cash used in financing activities was $253.3 million higher in Fiscal 2021 primarily reflecting share repurchases in Fiscal Year 2020.
Sources of Liquidity and Future Capital Needs
We have three principal sources of liquidity: cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalents on plan assetshand and our credit facilities discussed in Item 8, Note 9, "Long-Term Debt", to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
On June 5, 2020, we entered into a Second Amendment to our Credit Facility to, among other factors, there canthings, increase the Total Commitments for the revolving loans from $275.0 million to $332.5 million, establish a FILO tranche of indebtedness of $17.5 million, for $350.0 million total capacity, increase pricing on the revolving loans, modify certain covenant and reporting terms and pledge additional collateral. As of January 30, 2021, we have borrowed $33.0 million under our Credit Facility.
On October 9, 2020, Schuh entered into a Facility Letter with Lloyds under the U.K.'s Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme pursuant to which Lloyds made available a RCF of £19.0 million for the purpose of refinancing Schuh's existing indebtedness with Lloyds. The RCF expires in October 2023. As of January 30, 2021, we have not borrowed under the Schuh Facility Letter.
35
As we manage through the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Fiscal 2022, we have access to our existing cash, as well as our available credit facilities to meet short-term liquidity needs. We believe that cash on hand, cash provided by operations and borrowings under our amended Credit Facility and the Schuh Facility Letter will be no assurancesufficient to support our near-term liquidity. Our year end cash benefitted from both lower inventory levels as well as rent payables that additional adjustmentswill be paid once remaining COVID-related rent negotiations are fully completed and executed in future periodsFiscal 2022. Additionally, in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2021, we implemented tax mechanisms allowed under the 5-year carryback provisions in the CARES Act which we expect will not be required.
We were in compliance with all the relevant terms and conditions of the Credit Facility and Facility Letter as of January 30, 2021.

(1) Operating lease obligations excludes $68.8 million for leases signed but not yet commenced.
(2) As a result of the Togast acquisition, we also have a commitment to Samsung C&T America, Inc. (“Samsung”) related to the ultimate sale and valuation of related inventories owned by Samsung. If the product is sold below Samsung’s cost, we are committed to Samsung for the difference between the sales price and its cost.
We issue inventory purchase orders in the ordinary course of business, which represent authorizations to purchase that are cancelable by their terms. We do not consider purchase orders to be firm inventory commitments. If we choose to cancel a purchase order, we may be obligated to reimburse the vendor for unrecoverable outlays incurred prior to cancellation.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures were $24.1 million and $29.8 million for Fiscal 20172021 and 2020, respectively. The $5.7 million decrease in Fiscal 2016,2021 capital expenditures as compared to Fiscal 2020 is primarily due to decreased store renovations in Fiscal 2021 as well as decreased capital expenditures as a result of the Company recorded an additional chargeCOVID-19 pandemic.
We expect total capital expenditures for Fiscal 2022 to earningsbe approximately $35 million to $40 million of $0.6 million ($0.4which approximately 74% is for computer hardware, software and warehouse enhancements for initiatives to drive traffic and omni-channel capabilities. Planned capital expenditures excludes approximately $16 million, net of tax), $0.7tenant allowance, for the new Corporate Headquarters building which is still in the planning stage. We do not currently have any longer term capital expenditures or other cash requirements other than as set forth in the contractual obligations table. We also do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Common Stock Repurchases
We did not repurchase any shares during Fiscal 2021. We have $89.7 million ($0.4remaining as of January 30, 2021 under our current $100.0 million netshare repurchase authorization. We repurchased 4,570,015 shares at a cost of tax)$189.4 million during Fiscal 2020.

We are subject to certain loss contingencies related to former facilities operatedenvironmental proceedings and other legal matters, including those disclosed in Item 8, Note 16, "Legal Proceedings and Other Matters", to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Financial Market Risk
The following discusses our exposure to financial market risk.
Outstanding Debt – We have $33.0 million of outstanding U.S. revolver borrowings at a weighted average interest rate of 4.05% as of January 30, 2021. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by $0.3 million on the Company. For additional$33.0 million revolver borrowings.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Our cash and cash equivalent balances are held in our bank accounts and not invested at this time. We did not have significant exposure to changing interest rates on invested cash at January 30, 2021. As a result, we consider the interest rate market risk implicit in these investments at January 30, 2021 to be low.
Summary – Based on our overall market interest rate exposure at January 30, 2021, we believe that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for Fiscal 2022 would not be material.
Accounts Receivable – Our accounts receivable balance at January 30, 2021 is concentrated in our wholesale businesses, which sell primarily to department stores and independent retailers across the United States. In the wholesale businesses, one customer accounted for 16%, one customer accounted for 13% and two customers each accounted for 10% of our total trade receivables balance, while no other customer accounted for more than 7% of our total trade receivables balance as of January 30, 2021. We monitor the credit quality of our customers and establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information, see Notes 3as well as customer specific factors; however, credit risk is affected by conditions or occurrences within the economy and 13the retail industry, as well as company-specific information.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk – We are exposed to translation risk because certain of our foreign operations utilize the local currency as their functional currency and those financial results must be translated into United States dollars. As currency exchange rates fluctuate, translation of our financial statements of foreign businesses into United States dollars affects the comparability of financial results between years. Schuh Group's net sales and operating loss for Fiscal 2021 were positively impacted by $4.9 million and positively impacted by $1.1 million, respectively, due to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
New Accounting Policies
Descriptions of recently issued accounting pronouncements, if any, and the accounting pronouncements adopted by us during Fiscal 2021 are included in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data".
Critical Accounting Estimates
As a result of the Company values its inventories ateconomic and business impact of COVID-19, we may be required to revise certain accounting estimates and judgments such as, but not limited to, those related to the lowervaluation of cost or net realizable value in its wholesale, Schuh Groupinventory, goodwill, long-lived assets and Lids Sports Group segments.
Inventory Valuation
In itsour footwear wholesale operations and itsour Schuh Group segment, cost for inventory that we own is determined using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Net realizable value is determined using a system of analysis which evaluates inventory at the
37
stock number level based on factors such as inventory turn, average selling price, inventory level, and selling prices reflected in future orders for footwear wholesale. The Company providesWe provide a valuation allowance when the inventory has not been marked down to net realizable value based on current selling prices or when the inventory is not turning and is not expected to turn at levels satisfactory to the Company.
In itsour retail operations, other than the Schuh Group and Lids Sports Group segments, the Company employssegment, we employ the retail inventory method, applying average cost-to-retail ratios to the retail value of inventories. Under the retail inventory method,
Inherent in the retail inventory method are subjective judgments and estimates, including merchandise mark-on, markups, markdowns and shrinkage. These judgments and estimates, coupled with the fact that the retail inventory method is an averaging process, could produce a range of cost figures. To reduce the risk of inaccuracy and to ensure consistent presentation, the Company employswe employ the retail inventory method in multiple subclasses of inventory with similar gross margins, and analyzesanalyze markdown requirements at the stock number level based on factors such as inventory turn, average selling price and inventory age. In addition, the Company accrueswe accrue markdowns as necessary. These additional markdown accruals reflect all of the above factors as well as current agreements to return products to vendors and vendor agreements to provide markdown support. In addition to markdown allowances, the Company maintainswe maintain reserves for shrinkage and damaged goods based on historical rates.
Inherent in the analysis of both wholesale and retail inventory valuation are subjective judgments about current market conditions, fashion trends and overall economic conditions. Failure to make appropriate conclusions regarding these factors may result in an overstatement or understatement of inventory value. A change of 10% from the recorded amounts for markdowns, shrinkage and damaged goods would have changed inventory by $1.7$1.6 million at February 3, 2018.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We periodically assessesassess the realizability of itsour long-lived assets, other than goodwill, and evaluatesevaluate such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is determined to exist if estimated future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, are less than the carrying amount. Inherent in the analysis of impairment are subjective judgments about future cash flows. Failure to make appropriate conclusions regarding these judgments may result in an overstatement or understatement of the value of long-lived assets.
We annually assesses itsassess our goodwill and indefinite lived trade namestrademarks for impairment and on an interim basis if indicators of impairment are present. The Company’sOur annual assessment date of goodwill and indefinite lived trade names is the first day of the fourth quarter.
In accordance with ASC 350, the Company haswe have the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If, after such assessment, the Company concludeswe conclude that the asset is not impaired, no further action is required. However, if the Company concludeswe conclude otherwise, it iswe are required to determine the fair value of the asset using a quantitative impairment test. The quantitative impairment test for goodwill compares the fair value of each reporting unit with the carrying value of the businessreporting unit with which the goodwill is associated. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit, an impairment charge would be recorded for the amount, if any, in which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. The Company estimatesWe estimate fair value using the best information available, and computescompute the fair value derived by ana combination of the market and income approach. The market approach utilizing discounted cash flow projections.is based on observed market data of comparable companies to determine fair value. The income approach usesutilizes a projection of a reporting unit’s estimated operating results and cash flows that isare discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions. A key assumption in the Company’sour fair value estimate is the weighted average cost of capital utilized for discounting itsour cash flow projections in itsour income approach. The projection uses management’sour best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including growth rates in sales, costs, estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, future estimates of capital

expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements. See Notes 2 and 3 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements forFor additional information regarding impairment of long-lived assets.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" ("ASC 606"), revenue shall be recognized upon satisfaction of all contractual performance obligations and other legal matters, including those disclosed in Note 13transfer of control to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for corresponding goods. The Company has made pretax accrualsmajority of our sales are single performance obligation arrangements for certain of these contingencies, including approximately $0.6 million reflected in Fiscal 2018, $0.6 million reflected in Fiscal 2017 and $0.8 million reflected in Fiscal 2016. These charges are included in provisionretail sale transactions for discontinued operations, net inwhich the Consolidated Statements of Operations because they relate to former facilities operated by the Company. The Company monitors these matters on an ongoing basis and, on a quarterly basis, management reviews the Company’s accruals in relation to each of them, adjusting provisions as management deems necessary in view of changes in available information. Changes in estimates of liability are reported in the periods when they occur. Consequently, management believes that its accrued liability in relation to each proceedingtransaction price is a best estimate of probable loss connectedequivalent to the proceeding, or in cases in which no best estimate is possible, the minimum amount in the range of estimated losses, based upon its analysisstated price of the facts and circumstances as of the close of the most recent fiscal quarter. However, because of uncertainties and risks inherent
A provision for estimated returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded. Estimated returns are based on historical returns and claims. Actual amounts of markdowns have not differed materially from estimates. Actual returns and claims in any future period may differ from historical experience. The FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "RevenueRevenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" (Accounting Standards Codification 606) ("ASC 606")gift cards is deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards. These cards have no expiration date. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized in May 2014. The Company will adopt this standardour Consolidated Statements of Operations within net sales in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019. For additional information on the new revenue recognition standard, see Item 8, Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies",proportion to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements includedpattern of rights exercised by the customer in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Income Taxes
As part of the process of preparing our Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company iswe are required to estimate itsour income taxes in each of the tax jurisdictions in which it operates.we operate. This process involves estimating actual current tax obligations together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of certain items for tax and accounting purposes, such as depreciation of property and equipment and valuation of inventories. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within theour Consolidated Balance Sheets. The CompanyWe then assessesassess the likelihood that itsour deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. Actual results could differ from this assessment if adequate taxable income is not generated in future periods. To the extent the Company believeswe believe that recovery of an asset is at risk, valuation allowances are established. To the extent valuation allowances are established or increased in a period, the Company includeswe include an expense within the tax provision in theour Consolidated Statements of Operations. These deferred tax valuation allowances may be released in future years when management considerswe consider that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. In making such a determination, managementwe will need to periodically evaluate whether or not all available evidence, such as future taxable income and reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and recent results of operations, provides sufficient positive evidence to offset any other potential negative evidence that may exist at such time. In the event the deferred tax valuation allowance is released, the Companywe would record an income tax benefit for a portion or all of the deferred tax valuation allowance released. At February 3, 2018, the CompanyJanuary 30, 2021, we had a deferred tax valuation allowance of $6.4$36.6 million.

Income tax reserves for uncertain tax positions are determined using the methodology required by the Income Tax Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”). This methodology requires companies to assess each income tax position taken using a two steptwo-step process. A determination is first made as to whether it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained, based upon the technical merits, upon examination by the taxing authorities. If the tax position is expected to meet the more likely than not criteria, the benefit recorded for the tax position equals the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement of the respective tax position. Uncertain tax positions require determinations and estimated liabilities to be made based on provisions of the tax law which may be subject to change or varying interpretation. If the Company’sour determinations and estimates prove to be inaccurate, the resulting adjustments could be material to itsour future financial results. See Item 8, Note 9,12, "Income Taxes", to the Company'sour Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information related to income taxes.
Leases
We recognize lease assets and corresponding lease liabilities for all operating leases on the impactConsolidated Balance Sheets as described under ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” We evaluate renewal options and break options at lease inception and on income taxesan ongoing basis, and include renewal options and break options that we are reasonably certain to exercise in our expected lease terms for calculations of the Act enacted on December 22, 2017.

Basis for Opinion
The Company'sCompany’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Valuation of Schuh Group Indefinite Lived Trademark | |||
Description of the Matter | At January 30, 2021 the Company had $23.1 million recorded for the indefinite lived trademark associated with the Schuh Group reporting unit. As discussed in Notes 1, 3, and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company assesses indefinite lived trademarks for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis if indicators of impairment are present. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value, an impairment loss would be recorded in the amount equal to the excess. | ||
Auditing the Company’s quantitative indefinite lived trademark impairment test was complex and highly judgmental due to the subjective nature of the significant assumptions used in the determination of estimated fair value for the Schuh Group trademark. For example, the fair value estimate was sensitive to significant assumptions, including revenue projections, royalty rate, and discount rate, which are affected by expected future market or economic conditions and industry and company-specific qualitative factors. | |||
How We | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s trademark impairment evaluation process. For example, we tested controls over the Company’s review of the significant assumptions used in the trademark valuation as well as the | Company’s review of the reasonableness of the data used in this valuation. | |
To test the estimated fair value of the Schuh Group trademark, we performed audit procedures that included, among others, testing the significant assumptions discussed above, testing the underlying data used by the Company in its analyses by comparing to historical and other industry data, as well as validating certain assertions with data internal to the Company and from other sources. We compared the significant assumptions used by the Company to current industry and economic trends while also considering changes to the Company’s business model, customer base and product mix. We assessed the historical accuracy of the Company’s revenue projections by comparing the Company’s past projections to actual performance. We also performed sensitivity analyses to evaluate the impact that changes in the significant assumptions would have on the fair value of the Schuh Group trademark. Finally, we involved a valuation specialist to assist in our evaluation of the Company's model, valuation methodology and significant assumptions, including assisting in evaluating the Company’s discount rate and royalty rate. | |||

Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Summary of Significant areas requiring management estimates or judgments includeAccounting Policies, Continued
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our foreign subsidiaries held cash of approximately $21.8 million and $8.9 million as of January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively, which is included in cash and cash equivalents on the following key financial areas:
There were 0 cash equivalents at January 30, 2021 and there were $59.6 million of cash equivalents at February 1, 2020. Our $59.6 million of cash equivalents at the lowerprevious year end was invested in institutional money market funds which invest exclusively in highly rated, short-term securities that are issued, guaranteed or collateralized by the U.S. government or by U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities. The majority of costpayments due from banks for domestic customer credit card transactions process within 24 - 48 hours and are accordingly classified as cash and cash equivalents in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
At January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, outstanding checks drawn on zero-balance accounts at certain domestic banks exceeded book cash balances at those banks by approximately $0.5 million and $17.1 million, respectively. These amounts are included in accounts payable in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Allowances on Accounts Receivable
Our wholesale businesses sell primarily to independent retailers and department stores across the United States. Receivables arising from these sales are not collateralized. Customer credit risk is affected by conditions or net realizable value in itsoccurrences within the economy and the retail industry as well as by customer specific factors. In the wholesale Schuh Groupbusinesses, 1 customer accounted for 16%, 1 customer accounted for 13% and Lids Sports Group segments.
We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information, as well as customer specific factors. We also establish allowances for sales returns, customer deductions and co-op advertising based on specific circumstances, historical trends and projected probable outcomes.
Inventory Valuation
In itsour footwear wholesale operations and itsour Schuh Group segment, cost for inventory that we own is determined using the FIFOfirst-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Net realizable value is determined using a system of analysis which evaluates inventory at the stock number level based on factors such as inventory turn, average selling price, inventory level, and selling prices reflected in future orders for footwear wholesale. The Company providesWe provide a valuation allowance when the inventory has not been marked down to net realizable value based on current selling prices or when the inventory is not turning and is not expected to turn at levels satisfactory to the Company.
In itsour retail operations, other than the Schuh Group and Lids Sports Group segments, the Company employssegment, we employ the retail inventory method, applying average cost-to-retail ratios to the retail value of inventories. Under the retail inventory method, valuing inventory at the lower of cost or market is achieved as markdowns are taken or accrued as a reduction of the retail value of inventories.

Inherent in the retail inventory method are subjective judgments and estimates, including merchandise mark-on, markups, markdowns and shrinkage. These judgments and estimates, coupled with the fact that the retail inventory method is an averaging process, could produce a range of cost figures. To reduce the risk of inaccuracy and to ensure consistent presentation, the Company employswe employ the retail inventory method in multiple subclasses of inventory with similar gross margins, and analyzesanalyze markdown requirements at the stock number level based on factors such as inventory turn, average selling price and inventory age. In addition, the Company accrueswe accrue markdowns as necessary. These additional markdown accruals reflect all of the above factors as well as current agreements to return
Inherent in the analysis of both wholesale and retail inventory valuation are subjective judgments about current market conditions, fashion trends and overall economic conditions. Failure to make appropriate conclusions regarding these factors may result in an overstatement or understatement of inventory value.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized over the estimated useful life of related assets. Depreciation and amortization expense are computed principally by the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings and building equipment | 20-45 years |
Computer hardware, software and equipment | 3-10 years |
Furniture and fixtures | 10 years |
Depreciation expense related to property and equipment was approximately $45.6 million, $49.4 million and $52.1 million for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Leases
We recognize lease assets and corresponding lease liabilities for all operating leases on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as described under ASC 842. We evaluate renewal options and break options at lease inception and on an ongoing basis and include renewal options and break options that we are reasonably certain to exercise in our expected lease terms for calculations of the right-of-use assets and liabilities. Approximately 2% of our leases contain renewal options. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, we estimate incremental borrowing rates corresponding to the reasonably certain lease term. As most of our leases do not provide a determinable implicit rate, we estimate our collateralized incremental borrowing rate based upon a synthetic credit rating and yield curve analysis at the lease commencement or modification date in determining the present value of lease payments. For lease payments in foreign currencies, the incremental borrowing rate is adjusted to be reflective of the risk associated with the respective currency. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment, if any, of operating lease assets. We test right-of-use assets for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets.
Net lease costs are included within selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Asset Retirement Obligations
An asset retirement obligation represents a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset that is incurred upon the acquisition, construction, development, or normal operation of that long-lived asset. Our asset retirement obligations are primarily associated with leasehold improvements that we are contractually obligated to remove at the end of a lease to comply with the lease agreement. We recognize asset retirement obligations at the inception of a lease with such conditions if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Asset retirement obligations are recorded in other long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and are subsequently adjusted for changes in estimated asset retirement obligations. The associated estimated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and depreciated over its useful life.
Our Consolidated Balance Sheets include asset retirement obligations related to leases of $11.5 million and $11.1 million as of January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We periodically assessesassess the realizability of itsour long-lived assets, other than goodwill, and evaluatesevaluate such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is determined to exist if estimated future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, are less than the carrying amount. Inherent in the analysis of impairment are subjective judgments about future cash flows. Failure to make appropriate conclusions regarding these judgments may result in an overstatement or understatement of the value of long-lived assets. See also Notes 3 and 5.
We annually assesses itsassess our goodwill and indefinite lived trade names for impairment and on an interim basis if indicators of impairment are present. The Company’sOur annual assessment date of goodwill and indefinite lived trade names is the first day of the fourth quarter.
In accordance with ASC 350, the Company haswe have the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If, after such assessment, the Company concludeswe conclude that the asset is not impaired, no further action is required. However, if the Company concludeswe conclude otherwise, it iswe are required to determine the fair value of the asset using a quantitative impairment test. The quantitative impairment test for goodwill compares the fair value of each reporting unit with the carrying value of the businessreporting unit with which the goodwill is associated. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit, an impairment charge would be recorded for the amount, if any, in which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. The Company estimatesWe estimate fair value using the best information available, and computescompute the fair value derived by ana combination of the market and income approach. The market approach utilizing discounted cash flow projections.is based on observed market data of comparable companies to determine fair value. The income approach usesutilizes a projection of a reporting unit’s estimated operating results and cash flows that isare discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions. A key assumption in the Company’sour fair value estimate is the weighted average cost of capital utilized for discounting itsour cash flow projections in itsour income approach. The projection uses management’sour best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including growth rates in sales, costs, estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, future estimates of capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements. See also Note 2.

The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Topic defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.Level 2
- Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.Level 3
- Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of all contractual performance obligations and transfer of control to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for corresponding goods. The following table presentsmajority of our sales are single performance obligation arrangements for retail sale transactions for which the transaction price is equivalent to the stated price of the product, net of any stated discounts applicable at a point in time. Each sales transaction results in an implicit contract with the customer to deliver a product at the point of sale. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, is net of estimated returns, and excludes sales and value added taxes. Revenue from catalog and internet sales is recognized at estimated time of delivery to the customer, is net of estimated returns, and excludes sales and value added taxes. Wholesale revenue is recorded net of estimated returns and allowances for markdowns, damages and miscellaneous claims when the related goods have been shipped and legal title has passed to the customer. Actual amounts of markdowns have not differed materially from estimates. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in net sales. We exclude sales and value added tax collected on behalf of third parties from transaction price.
A provision for estimated returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded. Estimated returns are based on historical returns and claims. Actual returns and claims in any future period may differ from historical experience. Revenue from gift cards is deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards. These cards have no expiration date. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Operations within net sales in proportion to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer in future periods. We perform an evaluation of historical redemption patterns from the date of original issuance to estimate future period redemption activity.

Our Consolidated Balance Sheets include an accrued liability for gift cards of $5.0 million in each of the years ended January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020. Gift card breakage recognized as revenue was $0.8 million, $1.0 million and $0.8 million for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During Fiscal 2021, we recognized $3.0 million of gift card redemptions and gift card breakage revenue that were included in the gift card liability as of February 1, 2020.
Cost of Sales
For our retail operations, the cost of sales includes actual product cost, the cost of transportation to our warehouses from suppliers, the cost of transportation from our warehouses to the stores and the cost of transportation from our warehouses to the customer. Additionally, the cost of our distribution facilities allocated to our retail operations is included in cost of sales.
For our wholesale operations, the cost of sales includes the actual product cost and the cost of transportation to the Company’s assetswarehouses from suppliers.
Selling and liabilities measuredAdministrative Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses include all operating costs excluding (i) those related to the transportation of products from the supplier to the warehouse, (ii) for our retail operations, those related to the transportation of products from the warehouse to the store and from the warehouse to the customer and (iii) costs of our distribution facilities which are allocated to our retail operations. Wholesale costs of distribution are included in selling and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations in the amounts of $10.1 million, $5.6 million and $5.6 million for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
We record buying, merchandising and occupancy costs in selling and administrative expense. Because we do not include these costs in cost of sales, our gross margin may not be comparable to other retailers that include these costs in the calculation of gross margin. Retail occupancy costs recorded in selling and administrative expense were $269.8 million, $334.4 million and $334.3 million for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs related to inventory purchased from suppliers are included in the cost of inventory and are charged to cost of sales in the period that the inventory is sold. All other shipping and handling costs are charged to cost of sales in the period incurred except for wholesale costs of distribution and shipping costs for product shipped from stores, which are included in selling and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are predominantly expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $80.1 million, $72.3 million and $68.3 million for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Consideration to Resellers
In our wholesale businesses, we do not have any written buy-down programs with retailers, but we have provided certain retailers with markdown allowances for obsolete and slow-moving products that are in the retailer’s inventory. We estimate these allowances and provide for them as reductions to revenues at the time revenues are recorded. Markdowns are negotiated with retailers and changes are made to the estimates as agreements are reached. Actual amounts for markdowns have not differed materially from estimates.

Cooperative Advertising
Cooperative advertising funds are made available to most of our wholesale footwear customers. In order for retailers to receive reimbursement under such programs, the retailer must meet specified advertising guidelines and provide appropriate documentation of expenses to be reimbursed. Our cooperative advertising agreements require that wholesale customers present documentation or other evidence of specific advertisements or display materials used for our products by submitting the actual print advertisements presented in catalogs, newspaper inserts or other advertising circulars, or by permitting physical inspection of displays. Additionally, our cooperative advertising agreements require that the amount of reimbursement requested for such advertising or materials be supported by invoices or other evidence of the actual costs incurred by the retailer.
Vendor Allowances
From time to time, we negotiate allowances from our vendors for markdowns taken or expected to be taken. These markdowns are typically negotiated on specific merchandise and for specific amounts. These specific allowances are recognized as a reduction in cost of sales in the period in which the markdowns are taken. Markdown allowances not attached to specific inventory on hand or already sold are applied to concurrent or future purchases from each respective vendor.
We receive support from some of our vendors in the form of reimbursements for cooperative advertising and catalog costs for the launch and promotion of certain products. The reimbursements are agreed upon with vendors and represent specific, incremental, identifiable costs incurred by us to sell the vendor’s specific products. Such costs and the related reimbursements are accumulated and monitored on an individual vendor basis, pursuant to the respective cooperative advertising agreements with vendors. Such cooperative advertising reimbursements are recorded as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses in the same period in which the associated expense is incurred. If the amount of cash consideration received exceeds the costs being reimbursed, such excess amount would be recorded as a reduction of cost of sales.
Vendor reimbursements of cooperative advertising costs recognized as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses were $5.7 million, $8.0 million and $7.8 million for Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, our vendor reimbursements of cooperative advertising received were not in excess of the costs incurred.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of our foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The translation of the applicable foreign currency into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense accounts are translated at monthly average exchange rates. The unearned gains and losses resulting from such translation are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders' equity. Gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions were not material for Fiscal 2021, 2020 or 2019.
Commitments
As a result of the Togast acquisition, we also have a commitment to Samsung C&T America, Inc. (“Samsung��) related to the ultimate sale and valuation of related inventories owned by Samsung. If the product is sold below Samsung’s cost, we are committed to Samsung for the difference between the sales price and its cost. At January 30, 2021, the related inventory owned by Samsung had a historical cost of $22.8 million. As of January 30, 2021, we believe that we have appropriately accounted for any differences between the fair value on a nonrecurring basisof the Samsung inventory and Samsung’s historical cost.

New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
We adopted ASU 2016-02, " Leases (Topic 842)", ("ASC 842"), as of February 3, 2018 aggregated2019, using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements". The optional transition approach provides a method for recording existing leases at adoption by allowing a cumulative effect adjustment to the levelopening balance of retained earnings in the fairperiod of adoption, as opposed to the modified or full retrospective transition methods that require restating prior comparative periods. Additionally, we elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits us to not reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for our store and equipment leases.
Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of additional net operating lease right of use assets and operating lease liabilities of $795.6 million and $855.3 million, respectively, as of February 3, 2019. The operating lease right of use asset is inclusive of the impairments recorded upon adoption for store operating lease right of use assets, which totaled $4.8 million and resulted in a decrease to retained earnings of $4.2 million, net of tax. Right of use assets are recorded based upon the present value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (in thousands):

In August 2018, the Property, PlantFASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Equipment TopicOther-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract", (ASU 2018-15"). The standard requires that issuers follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The ASC 350-40 guidance requires that certain costs incurred during the application development stage be capitalized and other costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages be expensed as they are incurred. ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted this standard effective August 4, 2019 and elected to apply the prospective transition approach with no material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. We did not capitalize any material implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement service contract during Fiscal 2021 or Fiscal 2020.
We adopted ASC 606 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 using the modified retrospective method by recognizing the cumulative effect of $4.4 million as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at February 4, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which requires entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The FASB has subsequently issued updates to the standard to provide additional clarification on specific topics. We adopted ASU No. 2016-13 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2021. This guidance did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic. To help control the spread of the Codification,virus and protect the Company recorded
Changes made in our operations, including temporary closures, combined with reduced customer traffic due to concerns over COVID-19, resulted in material reductions in revenues and operating income during Fiscal 2021. This prompted us to update our impairment charges asanalyses of our retail store portfolios and related lease right-of-use assets. For certain lower-performing stores, we compared the carrying value of store assets to undiscounted cash flows with updated assumptions on near-term profitability. As a result, of the fair value measurement of its long-lived assets held and used and tested on a nonrecurring basis during the twelve months ended February 3, 2018. These charges are reflected inwe recorded an incremental $11.0 million asset impairment charge within asset impairments and other, net on theour Consolidated Statements of Operations during Fiscal 2021.
We evaluated our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for indicators of impairment at the end of the first three quarters of this year and our annual assessment of impairment on the first day of our fourth quarter for Fiscal 2021. During the first quarter, such evaluation caused us to determine that, when considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, indicators of impairment existed relating to the goodwill associated with Schuh Group and certain other trademarks. Therefore, we updated the goodwill impairment analysis for Schuh Group, and as a result, recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $79.3 million during the quarter ended May 2, 2020. In addition, we updated our impairment analysis for other intangible assets and, as a result, recorded a trademark impairment charge of $5.3 million during the quarter ended May 2, 2020.
We evaluated our remaining assets, particularly accounts receivable and inventory. Our wholesale businesses sell primarily to independent retailers and department stores across the United States. Receivables arising from these sales are not collateralized. Customer credit risk is affected by conditions or occurrences within the economy and the retail industry, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as by customer specific factors. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
We also record reserves for obsolete and slow-moving inventory and for estimated shrinkage between physical inventory counts. We recorded incremental inventory reserve provisions as a result of excess inventory due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on retail traffic and demand for certain products. Depending on the pace of reopening our stores as well as future customer behavior, among other factors, we may incur additional inventory reserve provisions.

Since the first quarter of Fiscal 2021, we have withheld certain contractual rent payments generally correlating with time periods when our stores were closed and/or correlating with sales declines from Fiscal 2020. We continue to recognize rent expense in accordance with the contractual terms. We have been working with landlords in various markets seeking commercially reasonable lease concessions given the current environment, and while some agreements have been reached, a number of negotiations remain ongoing. In cases where the agreements do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligation of the lessee such that the total cash flows of the modified lease are substantially the same or less than the total cash flows of the existing lease, we have not reevaluated the contract terms. For these lease agreements, we have recognized a reduction in variable rent expense in the period that the concession was granted.
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which among other things, provides employer payroll tax credits for wages paid to employees who are unable to work during the COVID-19 pandemic and options to defer payroll tax payments. Based on our evaluation of the CARES Act, we qualify for certain employer payroll tax credits as well as the deferral of payroll and other tax payments in the future, which will be treated as government subsidies to offset related operating expenses. During Fiscal 2021, qualified payroll tax credits reduced our selling and administrative expenses by approximately $13.8 million on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
We also deferred $9.5 million of qualified payroll taxes in the U.S. that will be repaid in equal installments by December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. Savings from the government program in the U.K. has also provided property tax relief of approximately $13.3 million in Fiscal 2021. Additionally, we recorded a tax receivable of $107.2 million in our U.S. federal jurisdiction as a result of a carryback of our Fiscal 2021 federal tax losses to prior tax periods under the CARES Act. Due to a higher tax rate in prior tax periods than the current U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21%, the carryback claim creates a permanent tax benefit of $46.4 million.We recorded our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and related liabilities based on our best estimates. As part of this process, we assessed the likelihood of realizing the benefits of our deferred tax assets. During Fiscal 2021, based on available evidence, we recorded an additional valuation allowance against previously recorded deferred tax assets in our U.K. jurisdiction of $2.6 million and our Irish jurisdiction of $0.2 million. We will continue to monitor the realizability of our deferred tax assets, particularly in certain foreign jurisdictions where the COVID-19 pandemic has started to create significant net operating losses. Our ability to recover these deferred tax assets depends on several factors, including our results of operations and our ability to project future taxable income in those jurisdictions.
The COVID-19 pandemic remains a rapidly evolving situation. The continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, its economic impact and actions taken in response thereto may result in prolonged or recurring periods of store closures and modified operating schedules and may result in changes in customer behaviors, including a potential reduction in consumer discretionary spending in our stores. These may lead to increased asset recovery and valuation risks, such as impairment of our store and other assets and an inability to realize deferred tax assets due to sustaining losses in certain jurisdictions. The uncertainties in the global economy have and are likely to continue to impact the financial viability of our suppliers, and other business partners, which may interrupt our supply chain, limit our ability to collect receivables and require other changes to our operations. These and other factors have and will continue to adversely impact our net revenues, gross margins, operating income and earnings per share financial measures.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Effective January 1, 2020, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets, and assumption of certain liabilities, of Togast for an aggregate base purchase price of $33.5 million, which was paid in full in cash at the closing. Togast specializes in the design, sourcing and sale of licensed footwear. We also entered into a new U.S. footwear license agreement with Levi Strauss & Co. for the license of Levi's® footwear for men, women, and children in the U.S. The Togast purchase includes footwear licenses for Bass® and FUBU, among others. Togast operates within the Licensed Brands segment.

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2021, we identified qualitative indicators of impairment, including a significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, since the last consideration of indicators of impairment in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020 for our Schuh Group reporting unit. When indicators of impairment are present on an interim basis, we must assess whether it is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50% chance) that an impairment has occurred. In our Fiscal 2020 annual evaluation of goodwill, we determined the Schuh Group reporting unit was valued at approximately $8.2 million in excess of its carrying value. Due to the identified indicators of impairment in the first quarter of Fiscal 2021, we determined that it was “more likely than not” that an impairment had occurred and performed a full valuation of our Schuh Group reporting. Based upon the results of these analyses, we concluded the goodwill attributed to Schuh Group was fully impaired. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $79.3 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2021.
Goodwill Valuation (Schuh Group)
We estimated the fair value of our Schuh reporting unit in the first quarter of Fiscal 2021 using a discounted cash flow method (income approach) weighted 50% and a guideline public company method (market approach) weighted 50%. The key assumptions used under the income approach include the following:
• | Future cash flow assumptions - Our projections for the Schuh reporting unit were based on organic growth and were derived from historical experience and assumptions regarding future growth and profitability trends, including considerations for the impact from the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our analysis incorporated an assumed period of cash flows of seven years with a terminal value. |
• | Discount rate - The discount rate was based on an estimated weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) for the reporting unit. The components of WACC are the cost of equity and the cost of debt, each of which requires judgment by management to estimate. We developed our cost of equity estimate based on perceived risks and predictability of future cash flows. The WACC used to estimate the fair values of the Schuh reporting unit was 16%. |

Trademark Valuation
In addition, as a result of the factors noted above, we evaluated the fair value of our trademarks during the first quarter of Fiscal 2021. The fair value of trademarks was determined based on the royalty savings approach. This analysis indicated trademark
impairment in our JourneysGroup and Johnston & Murphy Group. As a result, we recorded a trademark impairment of $5.3 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2021. This charge is included in asset impairment and other, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Key assumptions included in the estimation of the fair value for trademarks include the following:
• | Future cash flow assumptions - Future cash flow assumptions include retail sales from our retail store operations and ecommerce retail sales. Sales were based on organic growth and were derived from historical experience and assumptions regarding future growth, including considerations for the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Our analysis incorporated an assumed period of cash flows of five years with a terminal value. |
• | Royalty rate - The royalty rate used to estimate the fair values of our reporting units’ trademarks was 1%. |
• | Discount rate - The discount rate was based on an estimated WACC for each business. The components of WACC are the cost of equity and the cost of debt, each of which requires judgment by management to estimate. The WACC used to estimate the fair values of our reporting units’ trademarks was approximately 15%. |

Debt fair values were determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of financial instruments and would be classified in Level 2 as defined in Note 1.
Carrying amounts reported on our Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash, cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
As of January 30, 2021, we have $13.2 million of long-lived assets held and used which were measured using Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. We used a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of these long-lived assets. Discount rate and growth rate assumptions are derived from current economic conditions, expectations of management and projected trends of current operating results. As a result, the Company haswe have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value itsour long-lived assets held and used are unobservable inputs that fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Beginning in March 2020, we suspended rent payments under the leases for our temporarily closed stores and initiated discussions with landlords to obtain lease concessions. We have considered the FASB’s recent guidance regarding lease concessions as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and have elected to account for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic consistent with how those concessions would be accounted for under Topic 842 and Topic 840 as though enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed (regardless of whether those enforceable rights and obligations for the concessions explicitly exist in the contract). Also, in accordance with the FASB’s guidance, we apply this election for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that do not result in a substantial increase in our obligations or in the rights of the landlord. We continued to recognize contractual rent expense while lease concessions are under negotiation with the respective landlord. The rent concessions are recognized in the period when the amendment is executed. COVID-19 related lease concessions decreased our contractual rent expense by approximately $34 million during Fiscal 2021. As of January 30, 2021, we had an accrued liability for unpaid rent related to the closed stores of $26.9 million. We continue to negotiate lease concessions with our landlords.

Income Taxes
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was enacted in the United States. The Act includes a number of changes to existing U.S. tax laws that impact the Companyus including the reduction of the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. The Act also provides for a one-time transition tax on indefinitely reinvested foreign earnings and the acceleration of depreciation for certain assets placed into service after September 27, 2017, as well as prospective changes beginning in 2018, including the elimination of certain domestic deductions and credits and additional limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation.

Income Taxes, Continued
The Fiscal 2021 effective tax rate reflects the favorable impact of the CARES Act, enacted on March 27, 2020. Due to the net operating loss provisions of the CARES Act, we realized a $46.4 million tax benefit in Fiscal 2021. A change to our international operations that took effect in January 2021 resulted in an additional $12.8 million tax benefit in Fiscal 2021. These tax benefits were offset partially by an increase in the valuation allowance in foreign jurisdictions and a non-deductible goodwill impairment charge.
We are subject to a tax on global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”). GILTI taxes foreign income in excess of deemed return on tangible assets of a foreign corporation and we elected to treat this tax as a period cost. Because of tax losses in foreign jurisdictions, there was no liability for GILTI in any period.

As of January 30, 2021, no deferred taxes have been provided on the transition tax onaccumulated undistributed earnings of our foreign operations beyond the amounts recorded for deemed repatriation of such earnings, as required byin the Act, the Company has beenAct. An actual repatriation of earnings from our foreign operations could still be subject to tax in Fiscal 2018 on the entire amount of its previously undistributed earnings fromadditional foreign subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017. Beginning in 2018, the Act will generally provide a 100% deduction for U.S. federal tax purposes of dividends received by the Company from its foreign subsidiaries. However, the Company is currently evaluating the potential foreignwithholding and U.S. state tax liabilities thattaxes. Based upon evaluation of our foreign operations, undistributed earnings are intended to remain permanently reinvested to finance anticipated future growth and expansion, and accordingly, deferred taxes have not been provided. If undistributed earnings of our foreign operations were not considered permanently reinvested as of January 30, 2021, an immaterial amount of additional deferred taxes would result from future repatriations, if any, and how the Act will affect the Company's existing accounting position with regard to the indefinite reinvestment of undistributed foreign earnings. The Company expects to complete this evaluation and determine the impact which the legislation may have on its indefinite reinvestment assertion within the measurement period provided by SAB 118.

Share-Based Compensation Plans
We have share-based compensation covering certain members of management and non-employee directors. The Company’s stock-based compensation plans, asfair value of February 3, 2018, are described below. The Company recognizes compensation expense for share-based paymentsemployee restricted stock is determined based on the fair valueclosing price of our stock on the awardsdate of grant. Forfeitures for restricted stock are recognized as required by ASC 718.
Stock and Cash Incentive Plan
Under the 20092020 Plan, which was originallybecame effective June 22, 2011, the Company25, 2020, we may grant options, restricted shares, performance awards and other stock-based awards to itsour key employees, consultantsnon-employee directors and directorsconsultants for up to
In addition, we established the 2020 Restricted Cash Incentive Program (the “Program”) in Fiscal 2021 to attract and retain executive officers and key employees. Total cash of $2.7 million was granted in June 2020 under this Program. Cash granted under the Program will primarily vest 25% per year over four years. Only employees that were employed as of the grant date were eligible for the Program. The compensation paid under the Program is taxable and subject to applicable tax withholding requirements. Compensation expense recognized in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, for this cash grant was $0.4 million for Fiscal 2021.
On February 5, 2020, our new chief executive officer was issued a one-time grant of stock options under the 2009 Plan of 26,620 shares with a grant date fair value of $500,000. The fair value of the one-time stock option is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the vesting period. We estimated the fair value of the stock option award as of the date of the grant by applying a Black-Scholes pricing valuation model. The application of this valuation model involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense. The key assumptions used in determining the fair value of the stock option award granted during Fiscal 2021 were expected price volatility of 45.0%, a risk-free rate of 1.52% and a weighted average term of 6.25 years. This resulted in a fair value of $18.78 per share for this one-time stock option.
We recognized $0.1 million of stock option related share-based compensation in Fiscal 2021 in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of January 30, 2021, there was $0.4 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to these stock options under the 2009 Plan. For Fiscal 2018, 20172020 and 2016, the Company2019, we did not0t recognize any stock option related share-based compensation for itsour stock incentive planplans as all such amounts were fully recognized in earlier periods. The CompanyWe did not0t capitalize any share-based compensation cost.

Director Restricted Stock
The 20092020 Plan permits grants to non-employee directors on such terms as the Board of Directors may approve. Restricted stock awards were made to independent directors on the date of the annual meeting of shareholders in each of Fiscal 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016.2019. The shares granted in each award vested on the earlier of the first anniversary of the grant date and the date of the next annual meeting of shareholders, subject to the director's continued service through that date. The Board of Directors also approved a grant of 760 additional shares inFor awards made prior to Fiscal 2017 to two newly elected directors on the annual meeting date in Fiscal 2017 on the same terms as the Fiscal 2017 grant to all

In addition, we issued 1,338 shares to a newly elected director in Fiscal 2021.

In addition, the 2009 Plan permitspermitted an outside director to elect irrevocably to receive all or a specified portion of his annual retainers for board membership and any committee chairmanship for the following fiscal year in a number of shares of restricted stock (the "Retainer Stock"). Shares of the Retainer Stock arewere granted as of the first business day of the fiscal year as to which the election iswas effective, subject to forfeiture to the extent not earned upon the outside director's ceasing to serve as a director or committee chairman during such fiscal year. Once the shares arewere earned, the director is restricted from selling, transferring, pledging or assigning the shares for an additional three years. The 2020 Plan does not permit the issuance of retainer stock.

Environmental Matters
New York State Environmental Matters
In August 1997, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“NYSDEC”) and the Company entered into a consent order whereby the Companywe assumed responsibility for conducting a remedial investigation and feasibility study (“RIFS”) and implementing an interim remedial measure (“IRM”) with regard to the site of a knitting mill operated by a former subsidiary of the Companyours from 1965 to 1969. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), which assumed primary regulatory responsibility for the site from NYSDEC, issued a Record of Decision in September 2007. The Record of Decision specified a remedy of a combination of groundwater extraction and treatment and in-situ chemical oxidation.
In September 2015, the EPA adopted an amendment to the Record of Decision eliminating the separate ground-water extraction and treatment systems and the use of in-situ oxidation from the remedy adopted in the Record of Decision. The amendment provides for the continued operation and maintenance of the existing wellhead treatment systems on wells operated by the Village

of Garden City, New York (the "Village"). It also requires the Companyus to perform certain ongoing monitoring, operation and maintenance activities and to reimburse EPA's future oversight cost, involving future costs to the Companyus estimated atto be between $1.7 million toand $2.0 million, and to reimburse EPA for approximately $1.25 million of interim oversight costs. On August 15, 2016, the Court entered a Consent Judgment implementing the remedy provided for by the amendment.
The Village additionally asserted that the Company iswe are liable for the costs associated with enhanced treatment required by the impact of the groundwater plume from the site on two2 public water supply wells, including historical total costs ranging from approximately $1.8 million to in excess of $2.5 million, and future operation and maintenance costs which the Village estimated at $126,400 annually while the enhanced treatment continues. On December 14, 2007, the Village filed a complaint (the "Village Lawsuit") against the Companyus and the owner of the property under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) as well as a number of state law theories in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, seeking an injunction requiring the defendants to remediate contamination from the site and to establish their liability for future costs that may be incurred in connection with it.
In June 2016 the Company and the Villagewe reached an agreement with the Village providing for the Village to continue to operate and maintain the well head treatment systems in accordance with the Record of Decision and to release its claims against the Companyus asserted in the Village Lawsuit in exchange for a lump-sum payment of $10.0 million by the Company.us. On August 25, 2016, the Village Lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice. The cost of the settlement with the Village and the estimated costs associated with the Company'sour compliance with the Consent Judgment were covered by the Company'sour existing provision for the site. The settlement with the Village did not have, and the Company expectswe expect that the Consent Judgment will not have, a material effect on itsour financial condition or results of operations.
In April 2015, the Companywe received from EPA a Notice of Potential Liability and Demand for Costs (the "Notice") pursuant to CERCLA regarding the site in Gloversville, New York of a former leather tannery operated by the Companyus and by other, unrelated parties. The Notice demanded payment of approximately $2.2 million of response costs claimed by EPA to have been incurred to conduct assessments and removal activities at the site. In February 2017, the Company and EPAwe entered into a settlement agreement with EPA resolving EPA'stheir claim for past response costs in exchange for a payment by the Companyus of $1.5 million which was paid in May 2017. The Company'sOur environmental insurance carrier has reimbursed the Companyus for 75% of the settlement amount, subject to a $500,000 self-insured retention. The Company doesWe do not expect thatany additional cost related to the matter will have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Whitehall Environmental Matters
We have performed sampling and analysis of soil, sediments, surface water, groundwater and waste management areas at the Company'sour former Volunteer Leather Company facility in Whitehall, Michigan.
In October 2010, the Company andwe entered into a Consent Decree with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment entered into a Consent Decree providing for implementation of a remedial Work Plan for the facility site designed to bring the site into compliance with applicable regulatory standards. The Work Plan's implementation is substantially complete and the Company expects,we expect, based on itsour present understanding of the condition of the site, that itsour future obligations with respect to the site will be limited to periodic monitoring and that future costs related to the site should not have a material effect on itsour financial condition or results of operations.

Accrual for Environmental Contingencies
Related to all outstanding environmental contingencies, the Companywe had accrued $3.0 million as of February 3, 2018, $4.4 million as of January 28, 2017 and $14.5$1.5 million as of January 30, 2016.2021, $1.5 million as of February 1, 2020 and $1.8 million as of February 2, 2019. All such provisions reflect the Company'sour estimates of the most likely cost (undiscounted, including both current and noncurrent portions) of resolving the contingencies, based on facts and circumstances as of the time they were made. The Company paid $10.0 million of the accrued total at January 30, 2016 in August 2016. There is no assurance that relevant facts and circumstances will not change, necessitating future changes to the provisions. Such contingent liabilities are included in the liability arising from provision for discontinued operations on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets because it relates to former facilities operated by the Company. The Company hasus. We have made pretax accruals for certain of these contingencies, including approximately $0.6$0.3 million in Fiscal 2018, $0.62021, $0.4 million in Fiscal 20172020 and $0.8$0.7 million in Fiscal 2016.2019. These charges are included in provision forloss from discontinued operations, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and represent changes in estimates.
