For the Three and Six Months Ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, and 20212022
(dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
Note 1. General
The Company. Deckers Outdoor Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) is a global leader in designing, marketing, and distributing innovative footwear, apparel, and accessories developed for both everyday casual lifestylelifestyles use and high-performance activities. As part of its omni-channel platform, theThe Company's proprietary brands are aligned across its Fashion Lifestyle group, includinginclude the UGG, and Koolaburra brands, and Performance Lifestyle group, including the HOKA, Teva, Sanuk, and SanukKoolaburra brands.
The Company sells its products through domestic and international retailers, international distributors, and directly to its global consumers through its DTC business, which is comprised of its retail stores and e‑commerce websites. Independent third-party contractors manufacture all of the Company's products.
A significant part of the UGG brandbrand's business has historically been seasonal, requiring the Company to build inventory levels during certain quarters in its fiscal year to support higher selling seasons, which has contributed to the variation in its results from quarter to quarter. However, as the Company continues to take steps to diversify and expand its product offerings by creating more year-round styles, and as net sales of the HOKA brand continue to increase as a percentage of ourthe Company's aggregate net sales, the Company expects the impact from seasonality to continue to decrease over time.
Basis of Presentation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto (referred to herein as condensed consolidated financial statements) as of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, and for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 (the current period), and 20212022 (the prior period) are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US (US GAAP) for interim financial information pursuant to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X issued by the SEC. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and accompanying notes thereto. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022,2023, is derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring entries necessary to fairly present the results of the interim periods presented but are not necessarily indicative of actual results to be achieved for full fiscal years or other interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022,2023 (prior fiscal year), which was filed with the SEC on May 27, 2022 (202226, 2023 (2023 Annual Report).
Consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. In addition, the Company has considered the potential impact of the pandemic, as well as certain macroeconomic factors, including inflation, risingforeign currency exchange rate volatility, changes in interest rates, changes in commodity pricing, changes in discretionary spending and recessionary pressures,concerns, on its business and operations. Although the full impact of these factors is unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company believes it has made appropriate accounting estimates and assumptions based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. However, actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions, which may result in material effects on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.

The amounts of these reserves are determined based on several factors, including known and actual historical returns and any recent events that could result in a change from historical return rates.
Sales returns are a refund asset for the right to recover the inventory and a refund liability for the stand-ready right of return. Changes to the refund liability are recorded against gross sales and changes to the refund asset for the right to recover the inventory are recorded against cost of sales and changes in the refund liability are recorded against gross sales in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The refund liability is recorded in other accrued expenses and the related asset for the right to recover the inventory is recorded in other current assets and the related refund liability is recorded in other accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts of these reserves are determined based on several factors, including known and actual returns, historical returns, and any recent events that could result in a change from historical return rates.

Note 3. Fair Value Measurements
The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy under this accounting standard requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available.
The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required:
•Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
•Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, which principally include cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, net, trade accounts payable, accrued payroll, and other accrued expenses, approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. When the Company makes short-term borrowings, the carrying amounts, which are considered Level 2 liabilities, approximatesapproximate fair value based upon current rates and terms available to the Company for similar debt.

The carrying value of money-market funds approximates the fair value as it is considered a highly liquid investment with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. Money-market funds are recorded in cash and cash equivalents in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company sponsors an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan (NQDC Plan) that permits certain members of its management team the opportunity to defer compensation into the NQDC Plan. A rabbi trust was established as a reserve for benefits payable under the NQDC Plan, with the assets invested in Company-owned life insurance policies. Deferred compensation is recognized based on the fair value of the participants' accounts.

The tax provisions during the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, and 20212022 were computed using the estimated effective income tax rate applicable to each of the domestic and foreign taxable jurisdictions for the fiscal years ending March 31, 20232024 (current fiscal year), and March 31, 2022,2023, respectively, and were adjusted for discrete items that occurred within the periods presented above.
During the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the net increase in the effective income tax rate, compared to the prior period, was primarily due todriven by higher income from operations, including changes in jurisdictional mix of worldwide income before income taxes, as well as reduced net discrete tax benefits, primarily due to deductions for stock-based compensation.
During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the net increase in the effective income tax rate, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to changes in jurisdictional mix of worldwide income before income taxes, partially offset by increased net discrete tax benefits, primarily due to foreign return to provision adjustments and deductions for stock-based compensation.

Although the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes it is not currently believes that the final outcome of these ordinary course matters will not, individuallya party to any legal proceedings, disputes, or in the aggregate, haveother claims for which a material adverse effect on its business, resultsloss is considered probable and for which the amount (or range) of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.loss is reasonably estimable. However, regardless of the merit of the claims raised or the outcome, these ordinary course matters can have an adverse impact on the Company becauseas a result of legal costs, diversion of management time and resources, and other factors.
Note 6. Stock-Based Compensation
From time to time, the Company grants various types of stock-based compensation under the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (2015 SIP), including time-based restricted stock units (RSUs), performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs), and long-term incentive plan PSUs (LTIP PSUs), to key personnel, including employees and directors. During the six months ended September 30, 2022, no additional awards were granted under the 2015 SIP, with the exception of the RSUs and LTIP PSUs awards summarized below. Refer to Note 8, “Stock-Based Compensation,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV of our 2022 Annual Report for further information on previously granted awards under the 2015 SIP.
Annual Awards. The Company granted the following awards under the 2015 SIP during the periods presented, which are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Six Months Ended September 30, |
| | 2022 | | 2021 |
| | Shares Granted | | Weighted-average grant date fair value per share | | Shares Granted | | Weighted-average grant date fair value per share |
| RSUs | | 47,545 | | | $ | 334.74 | | | 37,764 | | | $ | 386.69 | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
RSUs are subject to time-based vesting criteria and typically vest in equal annual installments over three years following the date of grant. PSUs are typically earned based on the achievement of pre-established Company performance criteria measured over the fiscal year during which they are granted, and, to the extent the performance criteria are met, vest in equal annual installments over three years thereafter.
Stock-based compensation is recorded net of estimated forfeitures in SG&A expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Future unrecognized stock-based compensation for annual awards, including RSUs and PSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2022, was $22,098.
Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards. During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company approved awards under the 2015 SIP for the issuance of PSUs (2023 LTIP PSUs), which were awarded to certain members of the Company's management team, including the Company's named executive officers and vice presidents. The 2023 LTIP PSUs are subject to vesting based on service conditions over either two or three years. The Company must meet certain revenue and pre-tax income performance targets individually over three reporting periods for the fiscal years ending March 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025 (collectively, the Measurement Periods). The 2023 LTIP PSUs incorporate a relative total stockholder return (TSR) modifier for both the 24-month performance period (commencing April 1, 2022) ending March 31, 2024 and the 36-month performance period (commencing April 1, 2022) ending March 31, 2025 (collectively, the Performance Periods). To the extent financial performance is achieved above the threshold levels for each of these performance criteria, the number of 2023 LTIP PSUs that vest will increase up to a maximum of 200% of the targeted amount for that award. No vesting of any portion of the 2023 LTIP PSUs will occur if the Company fails to achieve the pre-established minimum revenue and pre-tax income amounts for each reporting period. Following the determination of the Company’s achievement with respect to the revenue and pre-tax income criteria for the Measurement Periods, the vesting of each 2023 LTIP PSU will be subject to adjustment based on the application of the TSR modifier. The amount of the adjustment will be determined based on a comparison of the Company's TSR relative to the TSR of a pre-determined set of peer group companies for the Performance Periods. A Monte-Carlo simulation model was used to determine the grant date fair value by simulating a range of possible future stock prices for the Company and each member of the peer group over the Performance Periods.
The Company granted awards of 32,735 2023 LTIP PSUs at the target performance level during the six months ended September 30, 2022. The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of these 2023 LTIP PSUs was $387.44. Based on the Company's current long-range forecast, the Company determined that the achievement of at least the minimum threshold target performance criteria was probable as of September 30, 2022.
Future unrecognized stock-based compensation for the current performance attainment level of all LTIP PSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2022, including the 2023 LTIP PSUs discussed above, the 2022 LTIP PSUs, and the 2021 LTIP PSUs, is $21,556.
Note 7.6. Derivative Instruments
The Company enters into foreign currency forward or option contracts (derivative contracts), generally with maturities of 15 months or less, to manage foreign currency risk and certain of these derivative contracts are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted sales (Designated Derivative Contracts). The Company may also enterenters into derivative contracts that are not designated as cash flow hedges (Non-Designated Derivative Contracts), to offset a portion of the anticipated gains and losses on certain intercompany balances until the expected time of repayment. The Company does not use derivative contracts for trading purposes.
The after-tax unrealized gains or losses from changes in fair value of Designated Derivative Contracts areis recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) and are reclassified to net sales in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the same period or periods as the related sales are recognized. When it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting and the accumulated gains or losses in AOCL related to the hedging relationship are immediately recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI)OCI in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company includes all hedge components in its assessment of effectiveness for its derivative contracts.
Changes in the fair value of Non-Designated Derivative Contracts are recorded in SG&A expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The changes in fair value for these contracts are generally offset by the remeasurement gains or losses associated with the underlying foreign currency-denominated intercompany balances, which are recorded in SG&A expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Note 10.9. Reportable Operating Segments
Information reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who is the Company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO), President, and Principal Executive Officer (PEO), is organized into the Company's six reportable operating segments and is consistent with how the CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources. The Company does not consider international operations to be a separate reportable operating segment, and the CODM reviews such operations in the aggregate with the reportable operating segments.
Segment Net Sales and Income from Operations. The Company evaluates reportable operating segment performance primarily based on net sales and income (loss) from operations. The wholesale operations of each brand are generally managed separately because each requires different marketing, research and development, design, sourcing, and sales strategies. The income (loss) from operations of each of the reportable operating segments includes only those costs which are specifically related to each reportable operating segment, which consist primarily of cost of sales, research and development, design, sales and marketing, depreciation, amortization, and the direct costs of employees within those reportable operating segments.
The Company does not allocate corporate overhead costs or non-operating income and expenses to reportable operating segments, which include unallocable overhead costs associated with the Company's warehouses and DC's,DCs, certain executive and stock-based compensation, accounting, finance, legal, information technology (IT), human resources, and facilities, among others. Inter-segment sales from the Company’s wholesale reportable operating segments to the DTC reportable operating segment are at the Company’s cost, and there is no inter-segment profit on these inter-segment sales, nor are they reflected in income (loss) from operations of the wholesale reportable operating segments as these transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Supply Chain
•Similar to other companies in our industry, we continue to experience supply chain delays related to container shortages and port congestion causingIn the timing of container arrivals to be difficult to predict. However, we are beginning to see improvements in transit lead times, which has led to lower rates of inventory in transit as a percentage of total inventory, compared to the prior period. While container costs have improved fiscal year, to date,support our growing business, we continued to incurexpanded our network of global warehouses and DCs, including our 3PLs, while diversifying and increasing the number of third-party manufacturers we engage, which will result in higher ocean freight rates embedded within inventory sold, compared to the prior period, which is expected to negatively impact our gross margins throughout the second half ofassociated costs in the current fiscal year. We expect to continue to invest in and build upon these infrastructure capabilities to continue meeting customer and end consumer demand, which may result in higher costs in future periods.
•We have reduced the need to airfreight product, compared to the prior period, and expect to no longer use a material amount of airfreight during the second half of our current fiscal year due to active management of product availability in all channels through the earlier procurement of inventory in the country of sale combined with the improvement of in transit lead times.
•With the strength of our brands and our ability to move through promotional inventory during the three months ended September 30, 2022, we have experienced a lower rate of inventory growth, compared to the prior period when inventories were below normal operating levels. However, we expect to see inventory growth outpace sales growth in future periods to support increasing demand for our brands and mitigate the potential effects of future supply chain disruptions.
•We continue to be flexible in adapting to the fluid logistics environment, including implementing additional measures to mitigate the effects of supply chain disruptions. This includes expanding our warehousing, overland transportation and distribution services through our Company-owned warehouses and DCs and global 3PL arrangements, as well as diversifying and increasing the number of our third-party manufacturers. However, we continue to encounter headwinds transitioning to our new European 3PL as that provider refines its system and delivery levels.
Brand and Omni-Channel Strategy
•We remain focused on acceleratingincreasing consumer adoption of the HOKA brand, with all geographic regions and distribution channels experiencing significant year-round growth, which has continued to positively impactedimpact our financial results and seasonality trends. Our efforts to drive HOKA brand performance are primarily focused on distribution management, launching innovative product offerings and global marketing campaigns to drive brand awareness, and further expanding the HOKA brand presence through select Company-ownedour DTC channel, and operated retail stores. Fiscal year to date, we have opened seven HOKA brand retail stores in China and are planning to open additional retail stores in future periods in other regions. Additionally, we plan to open our first US HOKA brand permanent location in New York City during the second quarter of our next fiscal year, with an elevated store design fit for our premier performance brand.distribution management.
•Our ongoing marketplace strategies in Europe and Asia (international reset strategies) have continued to drive UGG brand awareness and consumer acquisition by building a foundation of diversified and counter-seasonal productbrand acceptance through localized marketing investments. However, we expect to continue to experience mitigating impacts on both net sales and gross margin on UGG brand international growth due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Throughout this Quarterly Report we provide certain financial information on a constant currency basis, excluding the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which we disclose in addition to certain financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. We provide these non-GAAP financial measures to provide information that may assist investors in understanding our results of operations and assessing our prospects for future performance. However, the information presented on a constant currency basis, as we present such information, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled information, presented by other companies, and may not be appropriate measures for comparing our performance relative to other companies. For example, in order to calculate our constant currency information, we calculate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period, excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate hedges and remeasurements in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Further, we report comparable DTC sales on a constant currency basis for DTC operations that were open throughout the current and prior reporting periods, and we may adjust prior reporting periods to conform to current year accounting policies.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to represent and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of financial or operating performance as determined in accordance with US GAAP.GAAP. Constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation as an alternative to US dollar measures that reflect current period foreign currency exchange rates or to other financial or operating measures presented in accordance with US GAAP. We believe evaluating certain financial and operating measures on a constant currency basis is important as it excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that are not indicative of our core results of operations and are largely outside of our control.
Seasonality
Our business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of UGG and Koolaburra brand net sales occurring in the quarters ending September 30th and December 31st and the highest percentage of Teva and Sanuk brand net sales occurring in the quarters ending March 31st and June 30th. Net sales for the HOKA brand occur more evenly throughout the year, reflecting the brand's year-round performance product offerings. Due to the magnitude of the UGG brand relative to our other brands, our aggregate net sales in the quarters ending September 30th and December 31st have historically significantly exceeded our aggregate net sales in the quarters ending March 31st and June 30th. However, as we continue to take steps to diversify and expand our product offerings by creating more year-round styles, and as net sales of the HOKA brand continue to increase as a percentage of our aggregate net sales, we have seen and expect to continue to see the impact from seasonality to continue to decrease over time. However, our seasonality has recently been impacted by supply chain challenges and the impact of these challenges on future periods is uncertain.

Foreign income before income taxes was $28,473$37,089 and $37,393$33,023 and worldwide income before income taxes was $128,918$81,364 and $127,680$57,002 during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, and 2021,2022, respectively. The decrease in foreign income before income taxes as a percentage of worldwide income before income taxes, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to lower foreign gross profit as a percentage of foreign net sales compared to domestic gross profit as a percentage of domestic net sales.
Net Income.The decrease in net income, compared to the prior period, was due to lower gross margins on higher net sales, combined with higher SG&A expenses as percentage of net sales. Net income per share increased, compared to the prior period, primarily due to lower weighted-average common shares outstanding driven by further stock repurchases.
Total Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income, Net of Tax. The increase in total other comprehensive loss, net of tax, compared to the prior period, was due to higher foreign currency translation losses relating to changes to our net asset position for unfavorable Asian and European foreign currency exchange rates against the US dollar.

Total net sales increased primarily due to increased HOKA brand wholesale, DTC channel sales, and UGG brand international wholesale. Further, we experienced an increase of 19.8% in total volume of pairs sold to 26,600 from 22,200compared to the prior period. On a constant currency basis, net sales increased by 24.2% compared to the prior period. Drivers of significant changes in net sales, compared to the prior period, were as follows:
•Wholesale net sales of the HOKA brand increased globally, resulting primarily from gaining market share with existing customer accounts along with door expansion with select strategic accounts, driven by higher demand across an assortment of franchise road running updates as well as trail and hiking categories.
•DTC net sales increased primarily due to higher global net sales for the HOKA brand, driven by consumer acquisition and retention through higher demand across an assortment of franchise road running updates. Our DTC channel also had an increase in global sales for the UGG brand, primarily due to higher demand for our Classics franchise derivatives, as well as hybrid products such as the Tasman style. Comparable DTC net sales for the 26 weeks ended October 2, 2022, increased by 27.3%, compared to the prior period.
•Wholesale net sales of the UGG brand increased due to higher international sales growth, including as a result of our international reset strategies, driven by higher demand for our Classics franchise derivatives, as well as hybrid products and lapping disrupted international shipments in the prior period. These effects were partially offset by domestic sales lapping heightened replenishment shipments for depleted wholesale customer inventories in the prior period, as well as unfavorable impacts from the strengthening of the US dollar on foreign sales.
•International net sales, which are included in the reportable operating segment net sales presented above, increased by 29.8% and represented 32.7% and 30.6% of total net sales for the six months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.These increases were primarily driven by higher sales for the HOKA brand in Europe in the wholesale channel, which includes earlier distributor shipments, and Asia in all channels, as well as an increase in the UGG brand in Europe in the wholesale channel and Asia in all channels. These effects were partially offset by unfavorable impacts from the strengthening of the US dollar on foreign sales.
Gross Profit.Gross margin decreased to 48.1% from 51.2%, compared to the prior period, primarily due to unfavorable product mix shift and a return to more normalized domestic promotional activity for the UGG brand, higher ocean freight rates embedded in the inventory sold, and unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These unfavorable margin pressures were partially offset by favorable HOKA brand domestic price increases and a favorable brand mix shift with increased HOKA brand penetration.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.The net increase in SG&A expenses, compared to the prior period, was primarily the result of the following:
•Increased payroll and related costs of approximately $21,900, primarily due to higher headcount, including for warehouse teams, and partially offset by lower performance-based compensation and stock-based compensation.
•Increased other variable net selling expenses of approximately $21,000, primarily due to higher materials and supplies costs, rent and occupancy expenses, warehousing fees, credit card fees, sales commissions, and net insurance costs.
•Increased variable advertising and promotion expenses of approximately $18,800, primarily due to higher promotional marketing expenses for the HOKA brand to drive global brand awareness and market share gains, highlight new product categories, and provide localized marketing.
•Increased net foreign currency-related losses of $16,100, primarily driven by unfavorable changes in Asian and Canadian exchange rates against the US dollar.
•Increased other operating expenses of approximately $11,500, primarily due to higher travel and entertainment expenses, higher depreciation and IT expenses for our warehouses, and sample expenses.
•Increased allowances for trade accounts receivable of approximately $4,500, primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense to account for higher open accounts receivable balances on higher UGG brand and HOKA brand wholesale net sales.
•Increased impairments of operating lease and other long-lived assets of approximately $1,100.

The decrease in total income from operations, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to lower gross margins, partially offset by higher net sales.
Drivers of significant net changes in total income from operations, compared to the prior period, were as follows:
•The increase in income from operations of HOKA brand wholesale was due to higher net sales and lower SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, partially offset by lower gross margins.
•The increase in income from operations of the DTC channel was primarily due to the higher domestic net sales for the HOKA brand, as well as lower DTC SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, partially offset by lower gross margins.
•The decrease in income from operations of UGG brand wholesale was due to lower gross margins, partially offset by higher international net sales.
•The increase in unallocated overhead costs was primarily due to higher foreign currency related losses, warehousing payroll costs, warehousing fees, travel and entertainment expenses, and depreciation expenses.

| Effective income tax rate | 21.3 | % | | 20.7 | % |
The increase in our effective income tax rate, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to changes in jurisdictional mix of worldwide income before income taxes, partially offset by increased net discrete tax benefits, primarily due to foreign return to provision adjustments and deductions for stock-based compensation.
Foreign income before income taxes was $61,496 and $58,571 and worldwide income before income taxes was $185,920 and $189,331 during the six months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The increase in foreign income before income taxes as a percentage of worldwide income before income taxes, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to a lower rate of decline for foreign gross profit as a percentage of worldwide sales compared to domestic gross profit, as well as loweran increase in foreign operating expenses as a percentage of worldwide sales.

Liquidity
We finance our working capital and operating requirements using a combination of our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash provided from ongoing operating activities, and, to a lesser extent, available borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. Our working capital requirements begin when we purchase raw and other materials and inventories and continue until we ultimately collect the resulting trade accounts receivable. Given the historical seasonality of our business, our working capital requirements fluctuate significantly throughout theour fiscal year, and we utilize available cash to build inventory levels during certain quarters in our fiscal year to support higher selling seasons. While the impact of seasonality has been mitigated to some extent, we expect our working capital requirements will continue to fluctuate from period to period.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, our cash and cash equivalents are $419,259. While we are subject to uncertainty surrounding the pandemic and related macroeconomic factors, we$1,046,889. We believe our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash provided from ongoing operating activities, and available borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, will provide sufficient liquidity to enable us to meet our working capital requirements and contractual obligations for at least the next 12 months.
Our liquidity may be impacted by additionala number of factors, including our results of operations, the strength of our brands and market acceptance of our products, impacts of seasonality and weather conditions, our ability to respond to changes in consumer preferences and tastes, the timing of capital expenditures and lease payments, our ability to collect our trade accounts receivables in a timely manner and effectively manage our inventories, including estimating inventory requirements that require earlier purchasing windowsour ability to manage supply chain constraints, our ability to respond to the impacts and disruptions caused by the pandemic, and our ability to respond to economic,macroeconomic, political and legislative developments.developments, and various other risks and uncertainties described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our 2023 Annual Report. Furthermore, we may require additional cash resources due to changes in business conditions, strategic initiatives, or stock repurchase strategy, a national or global economic recession, or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue, although we do not have any present commitments with respect to any such investments or acquisitions.
If there are unexpected material impacts on our business in future periods from the pandemic and we need to raise or conserve additional cash to fund our operations, we may seek to borrow under our revolving credit facilities, seek new or modified borrowing arrangements, or sell additional debt or equity securities. The sale of convertible debt or equity securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders, and equity securities may have rights or preferences that are superior to those of our existing stockholders. The incurrence of additional indebtedness would result in additional debt service obligations, as well as covenants that would restrict our operations and further encumber our assets. In addition, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Although we believe we have adequate sources of liquidity over the long term, factors such as a prolonged or more severe economic recession or inflationary pressure, or a slow recovery could adversely affect our business and liquidity.
Repatriation of Cash. Our cash repatriation strategy, and by extension, our liquidity, may be impacted by several additional considerations, which include clarifications of, future changes to or interpretations of global tax law and regulations, and our actual earnings for current andin future periods. During the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, and 2021,2022, no cash and cash equivalents were repatriated. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, and March 31, 2022,2023, we have $93,860$299,392 and $133,053,$299,114, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries, a portion of which may be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes if it were to be repatriated. Beginning with the tax year ended March 31, 2018, pursuant to the Tax Reform Act, an installment election was made to pay the one-time transition tax on the deemed repatriation of foreign subsidiaries’ earnings over eight years. The cumulative remaining balance as of September 30, 2022, is$33,761. We continue to evaluate our cash repatriation strategy and we currently anticipate repatriating current and future unremitted earnings of non-US subsidiaries only to the extent they have already have been subject to US tax, if such cash is not required to fund ongoing foreign operations.
Refer to Note 5, “Income Taxes,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV of our 20222023 Annual Report for further information on the impacts of the recent Tax Reform Act.
Stock Repurchase Program. We continue to evaluate our capital allocation strategy, and to consider further opportunities to utilize our global cash resources in a way that will profitably grow our business, meet our strategic objectives, and drive stockholder value, including by potentially repurchasing additional shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate remaining approved amount under our stock repurchase program is $1,331,166. The stock repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any amount of common stock and may be suspended at any time at our discretion. On July 27, 2022, our Board of Directors approved an increase of $1,200,000 to our stock repurchase authorization. As of September 30, 2022, the aggregate remaining approved amount under our stock repurchase program is $1,503,767.

Operating Activities. Our primary source of liquidity is net cash provided by operating activities, which is primarily driven by our net income after non-cash adjustments and changes in working capital.
The increase in net cash used inprovided by operating activities during the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to $71,987$134,646 of unfavorablefavorable changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by $7,815as well as $19,537 of favorable net income after non-cash adjustments, resultingincluding from favorable changes in bad debt expense,stock-based compensation and deferred tax expense, and depreciation, amortization, and accretion.expense. The favorable changes in operating assets and liabilities were primarily due to net favorable changes in inventories, trade accounts receivables, net, and net operating lease assets and liabilities, partially offset by net unfavorable changes in trade accounts payable, inventories, prepaid expenses and other current assets, net operating lease assets and liabilities, and long-term liabilities, partially offset by net favorable changes in income tax payable, other assets, other accrued expenses, and trade accounts receivable, net.receivable.
Significant impacts to working capital compared to the prior period were primarily due to changes in the following: (1) net trade accounts payable due to timing of payments, (2)fewer purchases of inventories due to support higher demand forbetter in-transit times compared to the HOKA brand and to maintain global service levels to mitigate the impacts of supply chain disruptions, and (3)prior period, (2) a higher rate of collections for trade accounts receivable, net, on higher net sales, partially offset by higher(3) lower net trade accounts receivable allowances.payable due to timing of payments and lower freight costs, and (4) changes due to timing of tax refunds and payments.
Investing Activities.The increase in net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to higher capital expenditures for leasehold improvements for our warehouses and DCs, partially offset by lower IT infrastructure, system, and other technology costs.
Financing Activities. The decrease in net cash used in investingfinancing activities during the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to lower capital expenditures for our warehouses and DC's, partially offset by higher capital expenditures for IT infrastructure, system, and other technology costs and refreshes of existing and new retail stores.
Financing Activities.The increase in net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior period, was primarily due to higher stock repurchases.
Contractual Obligations
As previously disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report as a subsequent event, during the six months ended September 30, 2022, we signed a lease for additional space, which we expect to be operational in the third quarter of our next fiscal year, at our US warehouse and DC in Mooresville, Indiana with an initial lease term of ten years for a minimum commitment of approximately $46,000.
Except as described above, thereThere were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business during the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, to the contractual obligations and other commitments as of March 31, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management must make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements, and other factors that management believeswe believe to be reasonable, but actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The full impact of the ongoing pandemic and related macroeconomic factors on our business and operations, including inflation, risingforeign currency exchange rate volatility, changes in interest rates, changes in commodity pricing, changes in discretionary spending and recessionary pressures, areconcerns, is unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated for certain key estimates.estimated. However, wemanagement believes it has made appropriate accounting estimates in accordance with US GAAP based on the facts and circumstancescircumstance available as of the reporting date.

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and key estimates and assumptions disclosed in the section titled "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in Part II, Item 7, within our 20222023 Annual Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Commodity Price Risk
For the manufacturing of our products, we purchase certain raw materials that are affected by commodity prices, which include sheepskin, leather, and wool. The supply of sheepskin, which is used to manufacture a significant portion of the UGG brand products, is in high demand and there are a limited number of suppliers that can meet our expectations for the quantity and quality of sheepskin that we require. Most of our sheepskin is purchased from two tanneries in China, which is sourced primarily from Australia and the UK. While we have experienced fairly stable pricing in recent years, historically thereThere have been significant fluctuationsno material changes in the price of sheepskin as the demand for this commodity from our consumersquantitative and our competitors has changed. We believe significant factors affecting the price of sheepskin include weather patterns, harvesting decisions, incidence of disease, the price of other commodities such as wool and leather, the demand for our products and the products of our competitors, use of substitute products or components, and global economic conditions. Any factors that increase the demand for, or decrease the supply of, sheepskin could cause significant increasesqualitative disclosures about market risk disclosed in the price of sheepskin.
We typically fix prices for all of our raw materials with firm pricing agreements on a seasonal basis. For sheepskinsection titled "Quantitative and leather, we use purchasing contracts and refundable deposits to attempt to manage price volatility as an alternative to hedging commodity prices. The purchasing contracts and other pricing arrangements we use for sheepskin and leather typically result in purchase obligations which are not recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the event of significant price increases for these commodities, we will likely not be able to adjust our selling prices sufficiently to eliminate the impact of such increases on our profitability.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Fluctuations in currency exchange rates, primarily between the US dollar and the currencies of Europe, Asia, Canada, and Latin America where we operate, may affect our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. We face market risk to the extent that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect our foreign assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Although most of our sales and inventory purchases are denominated in US dollars, these sales and inventory purchases may be impacted by fluctuations in the exchange rates between the US dollar and local currencies in the international markets where our products are sold and manufactured. We are exposed to financial statement transaction gains and losses as a result of remeasuring our monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currencies. We translate all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into US dollars using the exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from translating assets and liabilities from our subsidiaries' functional currencies to US dollars are recorded in OCI. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect our reported profits and can make comparisons from year to year more difficult.
We hedge certain foreign currency exchange rate risk from existing assets and liabilities, as well as forecasted sales. As our international operations grow and we increase purchases and sales in foreign currencies, we will continue to evaluate our hedging strategy and may utilize additional derivative instruments to hedge our foreign currency exchange rate risk. We do not use foreign currency exchange rate forward contracts for trading purposes. As of September 30, 2022, a hypothetical 10.0% foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation would have caused the fair value of our financial instruments to increase or decrease by approximately $5,300. As of September 30, 2022, there are no known factors that we would expect to result in a material change in the general nature of our foreign currency exchange rate risk exposure.
Refer to Note 7, “Derivative Instruments,” of our condensed consolidated financial statementsQualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in Part I,II, Item 17, within this Quarterly Report, for further information on our use of derivative contracts.
Interest Rate Risk
Our market risk exposure with respect to our revolving credit facilities is tied to changes in applicable interest rates, including the alternate business rate, the federal funds effective rate, currency-specific LIBOR and Canadian deposit offered rate for our Primary Credit Facility, the People’s Bank of China market rate for our China Credit Facility, and Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate for our Japan Credit Facility. A hypothetical 1.0% increase in interest rates for borrowings made under our revolving credit facilities would have resulted in an immaterial aggregate change to interest expense recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income during the six months ended September 30, 2022, since we had no outstanding balances under our revolving credit facilities during this period.
Refer to Part I, Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," within this Quarterly Report for further information on our revolving credit facilities.2023 Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours is designed to do, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023. Based on that evaluation, our PEOPrincipal Executive Officer (PEO) and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer (PFAO) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023.
b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Although we have modified our workplace practices globally due to the pandemic, resulting in most of our employees working remotely, this has not materially affected our internal control over financial reporting. We are continually monitoring and assessing the impacts and disruptions caused by the pandemic to ensure there are no material effects on the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
c) Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer Certifications
The certifications of our PEO and PFAO required by Rule 13a-14(a) of the Exchange Act are filed as Exhibit 31.1 and Exhibit 31.2, and furnished as Exhibit 32, to this Quarterly Report. This Part I, Item 4, should be read in conjunction with such certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
As part of our global policing program to protect our intellectual property rights, from time to time, we file lawsuits in various jurisdictions asserting claims for alleged acts of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, patent infringement, trade dress infringement, and trademark dilution. We generally have multiple actions such as these pending at any given point in time. These actions may result in seizure of counterfeit merchandise, out of court settlements with defendants, or other outcomes. In addition, from time to time, we are subject to claims in which opposing parties will raise, either as affirmative defenses or as counterclaims, the invalidity or unenforceability of certain of our intellectual property rights, including allegations that the UGG brand trademark registrations and design patents are invalid or unenforceable. Furthermore, we are aware of many instances throughout the world in which a third-party is using our UGG brand and HOKA brand trademarks within its internet domain name, and we have discovered and are investigating several manufacturers and distributors of counterfeit UGG brand products.products, and we are also investigating various markets for indications of counterfeit HOKA brand manufacturing.
From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings, disputes, and other claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including employment, intellectual property, and product liability claims.claims. Although the results of these ordinary course matters cannot be predicted with certainty,, we currently believe that the final outcome of these ordinary course matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, regardless of the merit of the claims raised or the outcome, these ordinary course matters can have an adverseadverse impact on us becauseas a result of legal costs, diversion of management's time and resources, and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
An investment in our common stock involves risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all the information within Part I, Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," as well as in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained in Part I, Item 1 within this Quarterly Report. In addition, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our 20222023 Annual Report, as well as in our other public filings with the SEC. If any of the identified risks are realized, our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock may decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In addition, other risks of which we are currently unaware, or which we do not currently view as material, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.
