URBAN OUTFITTERS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with Urban Outfitters, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2019.

The Company’s business experiences seasonal fluctuations in net sales and net income, with a more significant portion typically realized in the second half of each year predominantly due to the year-end holiday period. Historically, and consistent with the retail industry, this seasonality also impacts our working capital requirements, particularly with regard to inventory. Accordingly, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on January 31. All references in these notes to the Company’s fiscal years refer to the fiscal years ended on January 31 in those years. For example, the Company’s fiscal year 2020 will end on January 31, 2020.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standards update that amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting. This update requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for both operating and finance leases. The Company adopted the new guidance on February 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the period of adoption.The Company elected the “package of three” practical expedients and did not reassess expired or existing leases as of the effective date. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components as it pertains to real estate leases. Adoption on February 1, 2019 resulted in the recognition of approximately $1.3 billion of lease liabilities based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments using discount rates as of the effective date. Corresponding right-of-use assets of approximately $1.1 billion were recognized, with the offsetting balance representing a reduction in the previously recognized deferred rent balance. Adoption did not result in a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Recently Issued

In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. This includes loan commitments, accounts receivable, trade receivables and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The guidance also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The update will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has concluded that this update will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.


3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Contract receivables occur when the Company satisfies all of its performance obligations under a contract and recognizes revenue prior to billing or receiving consideration from a customer for which it has an unconditional right to payment. Contract receivables arise from credit card transactions and sales to the Company’s Wholesale segment customers and franchisees. For the threenine month period ended April 30,October 31, 2019, the opening and closing balancebalances of contract receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, waswere $80,461 and $88,390,$99,971, respectively. For the threenine month period ended April 30,October 31, 2018, the opening and closing balancebalances of contract receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, waswere $76,962 and $88,936,$90,954, respectively. Contract receivables are included in “Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities represent unearned revenue and result from the Company receiving consideration in a contract with a customer for which it has not satisfied all of its performance obligations. The Company’s contract liabilities result from customer deposits, customer loyalty programs and the issuance of gift cards. Gift cards are expected to be redeemed within two years of issuance, with the majority of redemptions occurring in the first year. For the threenine month period ended April 30,October 31, 2019, the opening and closing balances of contract liabilities were $49,747 and $43,187,$39,515, respectively. For the threenine month period ended April 30,October 31, 2018, the opening and closing balances of contract liabilities were $56,637 and $34,543,$34,253, respectively. Contract liabilities are included in “Accrued expenses, accrued compensation and other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the threenine month period ended April 30,October 31, 2019, the Company recognized $15,289$27,416 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Proceeds from the sales and maturities of available-for-sale securities were $151,761$382,629 and $57,400$211,174 for the threenine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company included in “Other income, net,” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, a net realized gaingains of $7$6 and $32 for the three and nine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019, respectively, and a net realized losslosses of $13$3 and $16 for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2018.October 31, 2018, respectively. Amortization of discounts and premiums, net, resulted in a reduction of “Other income, net” of $119$156 and $634$427 for the three and nine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019, respectively, and $328 and $1,479 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018, respectively. Mutual funds represent assets held in an irrevocable rabbi trust for the Company’s Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (“NQDC”). These assets are a source of funds to match the funding obligations to participants in the NQDC but are subject to the Company’s general creditors. The Company elected the fair value option for financial assets for the mutual funds held in the rabbi trust resulting in all unrealized gains and losses being recorded in “Other income, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

5. Fair Value

The Company utilizes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach that relate to its financial assets and financial liabilities). The levels of the hierarchy are described as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.


Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial assets that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the tables below:

Financial assets

Level 1 assets consist of financial instruments whose value has been based on inputs that use, as their basis, readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services and brokers.

Level 2 assets consist of financial instruments whose value has been based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3 assets consist of financial instruments where there has been no active market. The Company held no Level 3 financial instruments as of April 30,October 31, 2019, January 31, 2019 and April 30,October 31, 2018.


The fair value of cash and cash equivalents (Level 1) approximates carrying value since cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase. As of April 30,October 31, 2019, January 31, 2019 and April 30,October 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents included cash on hand, cash in banks, money market accounts and marketable securities with maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase.

Non-financial assets

The Company’s non-financial assets, primarily consisting of property and equipment, lease-related right-of-use assets and goodwill, are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable and, in the case of goodwill, an annual assessment is performed.

The fair value of property and equipment was determined using a discounted cash-flow model that utilized Level 3 inputs. The Company’s retail locations are reviewed for impairment at the retail location level, which is the lowest level at which individual cash flows can be identified. In calculating future cash flows, the Company makes estimates regarding future operating results based on its experience and knowledge of market factors in which the retail location is located. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as property and equipment. Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. The Company evaluates goodwill to determine if the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit. For the three and nine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019 and 2018, impairment charges were zero.0.

6. Debt

On June 29, 2018, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) that amended the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility with certain lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as joint lead arrangers and co-book managers.

The Amended Credit Agreement extended the maturity date of the senior secured revolving credit facility to June 2023 (the “Amended Credit Facility”). The Amended Credit Facility provides for loans and letters of credit up to $350,000, subject to a borrowing base that is comprised of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The Amended Credit Facility includes a swing-line sub-facility, a multicurrency sub-facility and the option to expand the facility by up to $150,000. The funds available under the Amended Credit Facility may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The Amended Credit Facility provides for interest on borrowings, at the Company’s option, at either (i) adjusted LIBOR, CDOR or EURIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.375%, or (ii) an adjusted ABR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.375%, each such applicable margin depending on the level of availability under the Amended Credit Facility. Depending on the type of borrowing, interest on the Amended Credit Agreement is payable monthly, quarterly or at the end of the interest period. A commitment fee of 0.20% is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Amended Credit Facility.

All obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. The obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest in inventory, accounts receivable and certain other assets of the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. The obligations of URBN Canada Retail, Inc. are secured by a first-priority security interest in its inventory, accounts receivable and certain other assets. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, negative and affirmative covenants and provisions relating to events of default.

7. Leases

The Company has operating leases for stores, distribution and fulfillment centers, corporate offices and equipment. The Company subleases certain properties to third parties. The Company has elected not to record a lease liability and right-of-use asset for leases with original terms of 12 months or less. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components as it pertains to real estate leases.

Store leases have remaining lease terms that range from less than one year up to 15 years, some of which contain options to extend the lease for one or two 5-year periods. Payments related to a renewal period are included in the lease liability and right-of-use asset only when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise the option to renew the lease for an extended period of time. Certain leases may contain variable lease payments such as rent based on a percentage of net sales. Variable lease payments may be subject to a breakpoint threshold of fixed rent. Variable lease payments, other than those that depend on an index or a rate, are not included in the measurement of the lease liability. The lease liability is calculated at the present value of certain future payments, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, which approximates the rate of interest the Company would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term. Significant judgment is used in determining the incremental borrowing rate.

Total operating lease costs were $68,915 and $202,990 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, respectively. Total variable lease costs were $66,248$15,631 and $17,939, respectively,$50,340 during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2019.October 31, 2019, respectively. Short-term lease costs and sublease income were not material during the three and nine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Anthropologie, Inc., is party to a ground lease (the “Lease”) with Waterloo Devon, L.P. (the “Landlord”). Wade L. McDevitt was a minority owner of the Landlord and its general partner and is the brother-in-law of Scott Belair, one of the Company’s former directors. Pursuant to the Lease, the Company rented approximately 6six acres located in Devon, Pennsylvania to develop a lifestyle center, which includes an expanded format Anthropologie store, a Terrain store, several restaurant concepts under the Food and Beverage division and a boutique event space. The Lease, which commenced on June 14, 2017, has an initial term of 40 years with two2 options to extend, each for an additional ten-year term. The initial rental rate is $1,087 per year, and rent increases 10% every five years during the initial term. The aggregate amount of rental payments payable under the initial term of the Lease is approximately $62,135. Real estate taxes, insurance, construction costs and other third-party expenses will also be paid by the Company. If the Company exercises its option to extend the Lease, rental payments during such extension term will be 90% of the market rental rate. An independent committee of the Board of Directors retained a national commercial real estate services firm to provide an appraisal of the initial market rental value of a portion of the property, which confirmed that the proposed initial rental rate per acre was consistent with market rates. The Lease and appraisal were reviewed by a committee of disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors and the Lease was approved by such committee and by the Company’s Board of Directors.

8. Share-Based Compensation

The Company maintains stock incentive plans pursuant to which it can grant restricted shares, unrestricted shares, incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (“RSU’s”), performance stock units (“PSU’s”) or stock appreciation rights (“SAR’s”). A Black-Scholes model was used to estimate the fair value of stock options. The fair value of RSU’s is equal to the stock price on the date of the grant. The fair value of the PSU’s awarded during fiscal 2020 equaled the fair value of the stock price on the date of the grant. The fair value of the PSU’s awarded during fiscal 2019 was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. A different methodology was used to value fiscal 2020 grants due to the removal of market-based conditions in the grant provisions. Share-based compensation expense included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, for the three and nine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019 and 2018 was as follows:

for the omni-channel and not the separate store or digital channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from that store’s inventory but may also be shipped from any of the Company’s fulfillment centers or from a different store location if an item is not available at the original store. Digital orders are primarily shipped to the Company’s customers through its fulfillment centers but may also be shipped from any store or a combination of fulfillment centers and stores depending on the availability of particular items. Digital orders may also be picked up at a store location, and customers may also return certain merchandise purchased through digital channels at store locations.

When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words “project,” “believe,” “plan,” “will,” “anticipate,” “expect” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Any one, or all, of the following factors could cause actual financial results to differ materially from those financial results mentioned in the forward-looking statements: the difficulty in predicting and responding to shifts in fashion trends, changes in the level of competitive pricing and promotional activity and other industry factors, overall economic and market conditions and worldwide political events and the resultant impact on consumer spending patterns, the effects of the implementation of the United Kingdom's referendum to withdraw membership from the European Union (commonly referred to as “Brexit”), including currency fluctuations, economic conditions, and legal or regulatory changes, any effects of war, terrorism and civil unrest, natural disasters or severe or unseasonable weather conditions, increases in labor costs, increases in raw material costs, availability of suitable retail space for expansion, timing of store openings, risks associated with international expansion, seasonal fluctuations in gross sales, the departure of one or more key senior executives, import risks, changes to U.S. and foreign trade policies, including the enactment of tariffs, border adjustment taxes or increases in duties or quotas, the closing or disruption of, or any damage to, any of our distribution centers, our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, risks associated with digital sales, our ability to maintain and expand our digital sales channels, response to new store concepts, our ability to integrate acquisitions, failure of our manufacturers and third-party vendors to comply with our social compliance program, changes in our effective income tax rate, the impact of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, changes in accounting standards and subjective assumptions, regulatory changes and legal matters and other risks identified in our filings with the SEC, including those set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, filed on April 1, 2019. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that actual results may differ materially from any projected results expressed or implied therein.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Urban Outfitters, Inc., together with its subsidiaries.

Overview

We operate under three reportable segments – Retail, Wholesale and Subscription. Our Retail segment consists of our Anthropologie, Bhldn, Free People, Terrain and Urban Outfitters brands and our Food and Beverage division. Our Retail segment consumer products and services are sold directly to our customers through our stores, websites, mobile applications, catalogs and customer contact centers and franchised or third-party operated stores and digital businesses. The Wholesale segment consists of our Free People, Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters brands that sell through department and specialty stores worldwide, digital businesses and our Retail segment. The Wholesale segment primarily designs, develops and markets apparel, intimates, activewear and home goods. Our Subscription segment consists of the Nuuly brand, which is a monthly women’s apparel subscription rental service that is planned to launch in the summer oflaunched on July 30, 2019.

Our fiscal year ends on January 31. All references to our fiscal years refer to the fiscal years ended on January 31 in those years. For example, our fiscal year 2020 will end on January 31, 2020.

Retail Segment

Our Retail segment omni-channel strategy enhances our customers’ brand experience by providing a seamless approach to the customer shopping experience. All available Company-owned Retail segment shopping channels are fully integrated, including stores, websites, mobile applications, catalogs and customer contact centers. Our investments in areas such as marketing campaigns and technology advancements are designed to generate demand for the Retail segment omni-channel and not the separate store or digital channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from that store’s inventory, but may also be shipped from any of our fulfillment centers or from a different store location if an item is not available at the original store. Digital orders are primarily shipped to our customers through our fulfillment centers, but may also be shipped from any store, or a combination of fulfillment centers and stores depending on the availability of particular items.


Digital orders may also be picked up at a store location, and customers may also return certain merchandise purchased through digital channels at store locations. As our customers continue to shop across multiple channels, we have adapted our approach towards meeting this demand. Due to the availability of like product in a variety of shopping channels, we source these products utilizing single stock keeping units based on the omni-channel demand rather than the demand of the separate channels. These and other technological capabilities allow us to better serve our customers and help us complete sales that otherwise may not have occurred due to out-of-stock positions. We manage and analyze our performance based on a single Retail segment omni-channel rather than separate channels and believe that the Retail segment omni-channel results present the most meaningful and appropriate measure of our performance.


Our comparable Retail segment net sales data is equal to the sum of our comparable store and comparable digital channel net sales. A store is considered to be comparable if it has been open at least 12 full months, unless it was materially expanded or remodeled within that year or was not otherwise operating at its full capacity within that year. A digital channel is considered to be comparable if it has been operational for at least 12 full months. Sales from stores and digital channels that do not fall within the definition of comparable store or channel are considered to be non-comparable. Franchise net sales and the effects of foreign currency translation are also considered non-comparable.

We monitor customer traffic, average unit selling price, transactions and average units per transaction at our stores, and we monitor customer sessions, average order value, conversion rates and average units per transaction on our websites and mobile applications. We believe that changes in any of these metrics may be caused by a response to our brands’ fashion offerings, our marketing campaigns, circulation of our catalogs and an overall growth in brand recognition.

Wholesale Segment

The Wholesale segment primarily designs, develops and markets young women’s contemporary casual apparel, intimates, FP Movement activewear and shoes under the Free People brand, home goods including gifts, tabletop and textiles under the Anthropologie brand and the BDG apparel collection under the Urban Outfitters brand. The Urban Outfitters wholesale division was established in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Our Wholesale segment net sales accounted for approximately 9.5%9.0% of consolidated net sales for the threenine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019, compared to 9.4% for the comparable period in fiscal 2019.

Subscription Segment

Our Subscription segment consists of the Nuuly brand, which is a monthly women’s apparel subscription rental service that is planned to launch in the summer oflaunched on July 30, 2019. For a monthly fee, Nuuly subscribers will canselect from a robust offeringwide selection of the Company’s own brands, third-party labels and one-of-a-kind vintage pieces for rent via a custom-built, digital platform. Subscribers willselect their products each month, wear them as often as they like, then swap into new products the following month. Subscribers are also be able to purchase the product being rented. Subscription segment net sales accounted for less than 1.0% of consolidated net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2019.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses during the reporting period.

Our senior management has reviewed the critical accounting policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2019. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. If actual results were to differ significantly from estimates made, the reported results could be materially affected. We are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would cause our actual results to be materially different from our estimates. We adopted the new accounting standards related to leases on February 1, 2019, which changed certain accounting policies (see Note 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Other than the adoption of the new accounting standards, there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the threenine months ended April 30,October 31, 2019.

3.5% at the Anthropologie Group and

The increase in Retail segment comparable net sales was driven by double-digit growth in the digital channel, partially offset by mid single-digit negative comparable store net sales. Retail segment comparable net sales increased 1.3% in North America offset by a decline of 4.6% in Europe due to a difficult macroeconomic environment. The digital channel net sales increase was driven by an increase in sessions, conversion rate, sessions and units per transaction, while average order value decreased. Negative comparable store net sales resulted from a decrease in transactions and average unit selling price, and traffic, partially offset by an increase in units per transaction. Store traffic for the quarter decreased. The increasedecrease in non-comparable net sales attributable to non-comparable sales was primarily due to the impact of foreign currency translation, partially offset by the impact of opening 2230 new Company-owned stores and restaurants and closing 14Company-ownedstores and restaurants since the prior comparable period.

The increasedecrease in Wholesale segment net sales in the firstthird quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the firstthird quarter of fiscal 2019, was primarily due to a 0.9% increase9.5% decrease for the Free People brand, and $1.1 million in the Urban Outfitters brand, whichas a result of lower sales to North American department stores. This decrease was launched in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, partially offset by a 3% decrease for thean increase of $1.3 million in Anthropologie brand due to a declineHome sales and $1.0 million in Europe.Urban Outfitters BDG sales.

Gross profit percentage for the firstthird quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased to 31.1%32.5% of net sales, from 32.8%34.7% of net sales in the comparable quarter in fiscal 2019. Gross profit decreased to $269.1$321.1 million in the firstthird quarter of fiscal 2020 from $280.7$337.7 million in the firstthird quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in gross profit percentage was driven by higher markdowns, deleverage in delivery and logistics expenses and lower gross profitWholesale segment margins. The higher markdowns were largely driven by underperforming women’s apparel at the Urban Outfitters brand. The deleverage in delivery and logistics expenses is due in part to the increased penetration of the digital channel as well as increased labor expenses attributable to the competitive market for employment in the United States. The lower Wholesale segment margins were primarily due to increased markdowns from department stores.

Total inventory at October 31, 2019 as compared to October 31, 2018, increased by $79.9 million, or 17.7%, to $531.6 million. Comparable Retail segment while gross profitinventory increased 9.0% at cost. The increase in comparable Retail segment inventory in each of our brands was due in part to early receipts related to the ongoing tariff uncertainty as well as positive comparable Retail segment net sales. The remainder of the increase in total inventory was primarily related to an increase in Wholesale segment inventory.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 1.9%, to $245.8 million, in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to $241.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 to 24.9% of net sales, compared to 24.8% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2019.

Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was 26.6% of income before income taxes compared to 20.6% of income before income taxes in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the ratio of foreign taxable profits to global taxable profits and the prior year favorable impact of equity activity.

Net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2019 were $2.81 billion, compared to $2.82 billion in the comparable period of fiscal 2019.

Retail segment store occupancy deleveraged due to negative store comparable net sales, partially offset by a benefit or leverage in store occupancy resulting from the increased penetration of the digital channel. The improvement in Wholesale segment gross profit rate was due to a higher penetration of sales to full price customers versus closeout customers.

Total inventory at April 30, 2019 as compared to April 30, 2018, increased by $3.7 million, or 0.9%, to $408.4 million. Comparable Retail segment inventory increased 0.8% at cost.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $614.3$420.9 million as of April 30,October 31, 2019, as compared to $694.8 million as of January 31, 2019 and $515.2$602.4 million as of April 30,October 31, 2018. During the first threenine months of fiscal 2020, we generated $25.9$121.4 million in cash from operations, and invested $37.7$171.1 million in property and equipment.equipment and repurchased $217.4 million common shares. Our working capital was $491.1$402.0 million at April 30,October 31, 2019 compared to $816.1 million at January 31, 2019 and $682.0$793.8 million at April 30,October 31, 2018. Working capital as of April 30,October 31, 2019 was negatively impacted by $214.4$213.9 million for the current portion of operating lease liabilities due to the February 1, 2019 adoption of an accounting standards update that amended the accounting standards for lease accounting (see Note 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion). Working capital was also negatively impacted by the use of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities used to repurchase our common shares in fiscal 2019 and the first nine months of fiscal 2020 and fund our capital projects.


During the last two years, we have satisfied our cash requirements primarily through our cash flow from operating activities. Our primary uses of cash have been to repurchase our common shares, open new stores, purchase inventory, fund store operations and expand our home offices and fulfillment centers.


Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities during the first threenine months of fiscal 2020 decreased by $28.2$148.8 million to $25.9$121.4 million from $54.1$270.2 million in the first threenine months of fiscal 2019. For both periods, our major source of cash from operations was merchandise sales and our primary outflow of cash from operations was for the payment of operational costs. The period over period decrease in cash flows from operations was primarily due to the timing of disbursements.higher inventory levels and lower net income.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities during the first threenine months of fiscal 2020 decreased by $3.6$71.2 million to $15.9$87.8 million from $19.5$159.0 million in the first threenine months of fiscal 2019. Cash used in investing activities in both periods primarily related to purchases of marketable securities and property and equipment, partially offset by the sales and maturities of marketable securities. Net liquidations of our marketable securities portfolio in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 were used primarily to fund repurchases of our common shares and purchases of property and equipment. Cash paid for property and equipment in the first threenine months of fiscal 2020 and 2019 was $37.7$171.1 million and $24.6$90.0 million, respectively, which was primarily used to expand ourconstruct new fulfillment center networkand distribution centers in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 and expand our store base in fiscal 2019.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities during the first threenine months of fiscal 2020 was a cash outflow of $75.7increased by $167.9 million compared to a cash inflow of $0.2$222.0 million from $54.1 million in the first threenine months of fiscal 2019. Cash used in financing activities in the first threenine months of fiscal 2020 and 2019 primarily related to $217.4 million and $57.5 million, respectively, of repurchases of our common shares under our share repurchase program. Cash provided by financing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2019 related to proceeds from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by share repurchases related to taxes for share-based awards.

Credit Facilities

See Note 6, “Debt,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the Company’s debt.

Capital and Operating Expenditures

During fiscal 2020, we plan to repurchase our common shares, construct andnew fulfillment centers, open approximately 2428 new Company-owned retail locations, open our new European home office, expand or relocate certain existing retail locations, upgrade our systems, improve and expand our digital capabilities, invest in omni-channel marketing, expand our fulfillment capabilities, invest in new products, markets and brands (including the launch of the apparel subscription rental service Nuuly), open our new European home office, purchase inventory for our new and existing operating segments at appropriate levels to maintain our planned sales growth, upgrade our systems, improve and repurchase common shares.expand our digital capabilities and invest in omni-channel marketing. We believe that our new brand initiatives, new store openings, merchandise expansion programs, international growth opportunities and our marketing, social media, website and mobile initiatives are significant contributors to our Retail segment sales growth. During fiscal 2020, we plan to continue our investment in these initiatives for all brands. We anticipate our capital expenditures during fiscal 2020 to be approximately $260$250 million, a significant portion of which will be to support new and expanded fulfillment and distribution centers in Bristol, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Pennsylvania and Europe. All fiscal 2020 capital expenditures are expected to be financed by cash flow from operating activities. We believe that our new store investments have the potential to generate positive cash flow within a year. We may also enter into one or more acquisitions or transactions related to the expansion of our brand offerings, including additional franchise and joint venture agreements. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, availability under our current credit facilities and future cash flows provided by operations will be sufficient to fund these initiatives.
