2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment and make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The level of uncertainty in estimates and assumptions increases with the length of time until the underlying transactions are completed. The most significant assumptions and estimates involved in preparing the consolidated financial statements include allowances for customer deductions, sales returns, sales discounts, and doubtful accounts,credit losses, estimates of inventory recovery, business combinations, fairnet realizable value, measurements, the valuation of share-based compensation, the valuation of deferred taxes, goodwill, intangible assets, operating lease right-of-use assets and property and equipment, along with the estimated useful lives used for amortization and depreciation of intangible assets and property and equipment.assigned to these assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods’ financial information in order to conform to the current period’s presentation. The Company reclassified $17.4 million of the previously recorded Fiscal 2018 transaction and transition costs related to the acquisition of Jimmy Choo and $11.3 million of transaction costs recorded in Fiscal 2017 in connection with the acquisition of MKHKL from selling, general and administrative expenses to restructuring and other charges in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the nine months ended December 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, to provide a more transparent disclosure of these costs.

The Company’s MK Wholesale segment generally experiences its lowest sales in its first fiscal quarter. The Company’s MK Retail segmentCompany generally experiences greater sales during its third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during its first fiscal quarter.

The net realizable value of the Company’s inventory as of December 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 includes the adverse impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain transactions. The Company, in its normal course of business, enters into transactions with foreign suppliers and seeks to minimize risks related to these transactions. The Company employs these forward currency contracts to hedge the Company’s cash flows, as they relate to foreign currency transactions. Certain of these contracts are designated as hedges for accounting purposes, while others remain undesignated. All of the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a gross basis, regardless of their hedge designation.
In connection with the July 25, 2017 recommended cash offer for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Jimmy Choo, the Company entered into a forward foreign currency exchange contract with a notional amount of £1.115 billion to mitigate its foreign currency exchange risk related to the acquisition. This derivative contract was not designated as an accounting hedge. Therefore, changes in fair value were recorded to foreign currency (gain) loss in the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The Company’s accounting policy is to classify cash flows from derivative instruments in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged. Accordingly, the Company classified the $4.7 million realized gain relating to this derivative instrument within cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended December 30, 2017.
The Company designates certain contracts related to the purchase of inventory that qualify for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges. Formal hedge documentation is prepared for all derivative instruments designated as hedges, including a description of the hedged item and the hedging instrument and the risk being hedged, and the manner in which hedge effectiveness will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively.hedged. The effective portion of changes in the fair value for contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item effectsaffects earnings. When the inventory related to forecasted inventory purchases that are being hedged is sold to a third party, the gains or losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are recognized within cost of goods sold. The Company uses regression analysis to assess effectiveness of derivative instruments that are designated as hedges, which compares the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument to the change in the related hedged item. Effectiveness is assessed on a quarterly basis and any portion of the designated hedge contracts deemed ineffective is recorded to foreign currency gain (loss). If the hedge is no longer expected to be highly effective in the future, future changes in the fair value are recognized in earnings. For those contracts that are not designated as hedges, changes in the fair value are recorded to foreign currency gain (loss)(gain) loss in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company classifies cash flows relating to its derivative instrumentsforward foreign currency exchange contracts related to purchase of inventory consistently with the classification of the hedged item or within cash flows from operating activities for contracts related to inventory purchases.activities.
The Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. In order to mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Company only enters into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and certain other financial factors, adhering to established limits for credit exposure. The aforementioned forward contracts generally have a term of no more than 12 months. The period of these contracts is directly related to the foreign currency transaction they are intended to hedge.

9



Net Investment Hedges
The Company also uses fixed-to-fixed cross currency swap agreements to hedge its net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollars and the associated foreign currencies. The Company has elected the spot method of designating these contracts under ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities”, and has designated these contracts as net investment hedges. The net gain or loss on the net investment hedge is reported within foreign currency translation gains and losses (“CTA”), as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest accruals and coupon payments are recognized directly in interest (income) expense, net, in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Upon discontinuation of a hedge, all previously recognized amounts remain in CTA until the net investment is sold, diluted or liquidated.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
The Company also uses interest rate swap agreements to hedge the variability of its cash flows resulting from floating interest rates on the Company’s borrowings. When an interest rate swap agreement qualifies for hedge accounting as a cash flow hedge, the changes in the fair value are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified into interest (income) expense, net, in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company terminated its only interest rate swap. As a result, the Company recognized a $1 million gain within interest (income) expense, net, in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
Leases

The Company leases retail stores, office space and warehouse space under operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through September 2043. The Company’s leases generally have terms of up to 10 years, generally require a fixed annual rent and may require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. Although most of the Company’s equipment is owned, the Company has limited equipment leases that expire on various dates through December 2025. The Company acts as sublessor in certain leasing arrangements, primarily related to closed stores under its restructuring activities. Fixed sublease payments received are recognized on a straight-line basis over the sublease term. The Company determines the sublease term based on the date it provides possession to the subtenant through the expiration date of the sublease.

The Company recognizes operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at lease commencement date, based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rates to determine the present value of fixed lease payments based on the information available at the lease commencement date, as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s leases. The Company’s incremental borrowing rates are based on the term of the leases, the economic environment of the leases and reflect the expected interest rate it would incur to borrow on a secured basis. Certain leases include one or more renewal options. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion and as such, the Company typically determines that exercise of these renewal options is not reasonably certain. As a result, the Company generally does not include the renewal option period in the expected lease term and the associated lease payments are not included in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability. Certain leases also contain termination options with an associated penalty. Generally, the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise these options and as such, they are not included in the determination of the expected lease term. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s leases generally provide for payments of non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other costs associated with the leased property. The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components of its real estate leases together as a single lease component and, as such, includes fixed payments of non-lease components in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for its real estate leases. Variable lease payments, such as percentage rentals based on sales, periodic adjustments for inflation, reimbursement of real estate taxes, any variable common area maintenance and any other variable costs associated with the leased property are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs and are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees, material restrictions or covenants.

Net Income per Share
The Company’s basic net income per ordinary share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per ordinary share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if share option grants or any other potentially dilutive instruments, including restricted shares and restricted share units (“RSUs”), were exercised or converted into ordinary shares. These potentially dilutive securities are included in diluted shares to the extent they are dilutive under the treasury stock method for the applicable periods. Performance-based RSUs are included inas diluted shares if the related performance conditions are considered satisfied as of the end of the reporting period and to the extent they are dilutive under the treasury stock method.

Please refer toSee Note 2 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 1, 2017March 27, 2021 for a complete disclosure of the Company’s significant accounting policies.
U.S. Tax Reform
On December 22, 2017, the United States ("U.S.") government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act includes significant changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including, among other things, lowering U.S. statutory federal tax rate and implementing a territorial tax system. As the Company has a March 31 fiscal year-end, the lower tax rate will be phased in, resulting in a U.S. statutory federal tax rate of approximately 32% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 and a 21% U.S. statutory federal tax rate for fiscal years thereafter. The Tax Act also adds many new provisions, including changes to bonus depreciation, limits on the deductions for executive compensation and interest expense, a tax on global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"), the base erosion anti-abuse tax ("BEAT") and a deduction for foreign derived intangible income ("FDII"). The Company is still evaluating the impact of these provisions of the Tax Act, which do not apply until 2019, and thus, has not adjusted any net deferred tax assets of its foreign subsidiaries for the new tax.


As part of the transition to the new territorial tax system, the Tax Act imposes a tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. In addition, the reduction of the U.S. statutory federal tax rate will cause the Company to re-measure its U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities.  In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, the Company recorded the effects of the tax law change during the three months ended December 30, 2017, which resulted in a provisional charge of $12.4 million, comprised of an estimated deemed repatriation tax charge of $0.3 million and an estimated deferred tax charge of $12.1 million due to the re-measurement of the Company’s net U.S. deferred tax assets. Conversely, the Company realized a $2.0 million net benefit for the three and nine month periods ended December 30, 2017 due to the corporate tax rate reductions. While the Tax Act has negatively impacted the Company's results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2017 by approximately 370 basis points and 160 basis points, respectively, the lower corporate rate is expected to to result in an ongoing reduced tax rate for the Company.
In December 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 118 to provide guidance for companies that would allow for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. The final transition impacts of the Tax Act may differ from the above estimate, possibly materially, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations of the Tax Act, any legislative action to address questions that arise because of the Tax Act, or any changes in accounting standards for income taxes or related interpretations in response to the Tax Act. In addition, once the Company finalizes certain tax positions when it files its 2017 U.S. tax return, it will be able to conclude whether any further adjustments are required to its deferred tax balances in the U.S., as well as to the total liability associated with the one-time mandatory tax. The Company believes that the analysis performed to date is sufficient to calculate a reasonable estimate of the impacts of the Tax Act.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, "Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business," to clarify the definition of a business in order to allow for the evaluation of whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 during the three months ended December 30, 2017, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company early adopted ASU 2016-092021-10 during the firstthird quarter of Fiscal 2018, as required. Accordingly, during2022 and will continue to utilize the three and nine months ended December 30, 2017, excess tax benefits of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, which would have been previously reflected within additional paid-in capital, were recognized within the Company’s provision of income taxes. This change is expected to increase volatility in future provisions for income taxes. In addition, the Company eliminated windfall tax benefits from the treasury stock method calculation used to compute its diluted earnings per share. Both of the above changes have been adopted on a prospective basis, whereas cash flows related to excess tax benefits, previously reflected within financing activities, have been presented within operating activities within the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows on a retrospective basis. Cash flows related to excess tax benefits were $6.4 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2016. The Company continues to reflect estimated forfeitures in its share-based compensation expense.grant accounting model.

The amendments were effective upon issuance and allow companies to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis through December 31, 2022. The Company has not applied this ASU to any contract modifications or new hedging relationships in the current year. As of a company’s hedging strategy. ASU 2017-12December 25, 2021, the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the 2018 Term Loan Facility of $495 million and the total availability of $1 billion under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility are both indexed to LIBOR. As such, these agreements are likely to be impacted by these ASUs upon adoption.

The Company generates sales through directly operated stores and e-commerce sites throughout the Americas (U.S., Canada and Latin America), certain parts of EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and certain parts of Asia (including Australia).
Gift Cards. The Company sells gift cards that can be redeemed for merchandise, resulting in a contract liability upon issuance. Revenue is entitled torecognized when the gift card is redeemed or upon transferring control of goods or services to customers, as opposed to when risks and rewards transfer to a customer. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date,” which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year, making it effective“breakage” for the interim reporting periods withinestimated portion of gift cards that are not expected to be redeemed. “Breakage” revenue is calculated under the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2017, or beginning withproportional redemption methodology, which considers the Company’s Fiscal 2019. This standard may be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented, or using a modified retrospective method with a cumulative adjustment to retained earningshistorical patterns of redemption in jurisdictions where the year of adoption.
The FASB has issued several additional ASUs to provide implementation guidance on ASU No. 2014-09, including ASU No. 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers” issued in December 2016, ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” issued in May 2016, ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” issued in April 2016, and ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)” issued in March 2016 . The Company is considering this guidance in evaluatingnot required to remit the impactvalue of ASU 2014-09.
Most of our business is comprised of retail and wholesale operations, where revenue is recognized at a point of time. The Company has completed the initial assessment of the new standard and is currently progressing in its implementation. While the evaluation process is not complete, based on our assessment to date, the Company believes that some of the potential impacts of implementing this standard will include the timing of revenue recognition for its licensing royalties, recognition of breakage revenue for unredeemed gift cards as wellunclaimed property. The contract liability related to gift cards, net of estimated “breakage”, of $15 million and $12 million as expanded financial statement disclosures, including revenue recognition policies to identify performance obligations to customersof December 25, 2021 and significant judgments in measurementMarch 27, 2021, respectively, is included within accrued expenses and recognition. The Company currently anticipates adopting this standard using the modified retrospective method with the cumulative adjustment to retained earnings recorded during the first quarter of Fiscal 2019.
Lease Accounting
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-to-use asset on the balance sheet for all leases, except certain short-term leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective beginning with the Company’s Fiscal 2020, with early adoption permitted, and must be implemented using a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period that is presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements but expects that the adoption of this standard will result in a significant increase in assets andother current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets.
Goodwill
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which simplifies the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 of the goodwill impairment analysis, while retaining the option to perform an initial qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if a quantitative impairment test is required. ASU 2017-04 is effective in the Company’s Fiscal 2021 with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a prospective basis.consolidated balance sheet.
Loyalty Program. The Company is currently evaluatingoffers a loyalty program, which allows its Michael Kors U.S. customers to earn points on qualifying purchases toward monetary and non-monetary rewards, which may be redeemed for purchases at Michael Kors retail stores and e-commerce sites. The Company defers a portion of the impactinitial sales transaction based on the estimated relative fair value of ASU 2017-04the benefits based on its consolidated financial statements.


Share-Based Compensation

These amounts include estimated “breakage” for entitiespoints that change the terms or conditions of share-based awards.

11. Fair Value Measurements
Financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value using the three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy of a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in the valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-basemarket-based (observable) or internally derived (unobservable). Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs based on a company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:
Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a company has the ability
to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the
asset or liability either directlyand inputs derived principally from or indirectly through corroboration withcorroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.


At December 30, 201725, 2021 and April 1, 2017,March 27, 2021, the fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forwardderivative contracts the Company’s only derivative instruments, were determined using broker quotations, which were calculations derived from observable market information: the applicable currency rates at the balance sheet date and those forward rates particular to the contract at inception. The Company makes no adjustments to these broker obtained quotes or prices, but assesses the credit risk of the counterparty and would adjust the provided valuations for counterparty credit risk when appropriate. The fair values of the forward contracts are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on whether they represent assets or liabilities to the Company, as detailedCompany. The fair values of net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are included in other assets, and in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on whether they represent assets or liabilities of the Company. See Note 12.

12. Derivative Financial Instruments
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain of its transactions. The Company, in its normal course of business, enters into transactions with foreign suppliers and seeks to minimize risks related to certain forecasted inventory purchases by using forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Company only enters into derivative instruments with highly credit-rated counterparties. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.
Net Investment Hedges
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company modified multiple fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $2.875 billion to hedge its net investment in Euro denominated subsidiaries (“First Quarter Modifications”).
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company modified multiple fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $1.5 billion. The modification of these hedges resulted in the Company receiving $59 million in cash during the third quarter of Fiscal 2022. This amount is classified within investing activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.
22


Certain of these contracts are supported by a credit support annex (“CSA”) which provides for collateral exchange with the earliest effective date being November 2023. If the outstanding position of a contract exceeds a certain threshold governed by the aforementioned CSA’s, either party is required to post cash collateral. Due to an other-than-insignificant financing element for certain of First Quarter Modifications, the net interest cash inflows of $31 million during the nine months ended December 25, 2021 related to these contracts are classified as financing activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.
As of December 25, 2021, the Company had multiple fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $4 billion to hedge its net investment in Euro denominated subsidiaries and $194 million to hedge its net investment in Japanese Yen denominated subsidiaries against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and these currencies. Under the terms of these contracts, the Company will exchange the semi-annual fixed rate payments on U.S. denominated debt for fixed rate payments of 0% to 4.457% in Euros and 0% to 3.408% in Japanese Yen. Certain of these contracts include mandatory early termination dates between August 2025 and February 2026, while the remaining contracts have maturity dates between May 2024 and February 2051. These contracts have been designated as net investment hedges.
When a cross-currency swap is used as a hedging instrument in a net investment hedge assessed under the spot method, the cross-currency basis spread is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and is recognized as a reduction in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Accordingly, the Company recorded interest income of $17 million and $44 million during the three and nine months ended December 25, 2021, respectively. Additionally, the Company recorded interest income of $6 million and $8 million during the three and nine months ended December 26, 2020, respectively. This change from prior year is primarily due to the Company having higher average notional amounts outstanding on these hedges during the current period.
Interest Rate Swap
The Company had an interest rate swap with an initial notional amount of $500 million that would have decreased to $350 million in April 2022. The swap was designated as a cash flow hedge designed to mitigate the impact of adverse interest rate fluctuations for a portion of the Company’s variable-rate debt equal to the notional amount of the swap. The interest rate swap converted the one-month adjusted LIBOR interest rate on these borrowings to a fixed interest rate of 0.237% through the date of termination.
When an interest rate swap agreement qualifies for hedge accounting as a cash flow hedge, the changes in the fair value are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. During the three and nine months ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, the Company recorded an immaterial amount of net interest expense related to this agreement.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company terminated its only interest rate swap. As a result, the Company recognized a $1 million gain within interest (income) expense, net, within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Changes in the fair value of the effective portion of the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are designated as accounting hedges are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings when the items underlying the hedged transactions are recognized into earnings, as a component of cost of salesgoods sold within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The net gain or loss on net investment hedges are reported within foreign currency translation gains and losses (“CTA”) as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Upon discontinuation of the hedge, such amounts remain in CTA until the related investment is sold or liquidated.

$51.75. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate theweighted average grant date fair value of its share option awards. Beginning in Fiscal 2018, the Company started using its own historical experience in determining the expected holding period and volatility of its time-based share option awards. In prior periods, the Company used the simplified method for determining the expected life of its options and average volatility rates of similar actively traded companies over the estimated holding period, due to insufficient historical option exercise experience as a public company.

(1)
Due to the reduction in the corporate tax rate introduced by the Tax Act enacted on December 22, 2017 (see Note 2 for additional information), the Company has realized a net tax deficit during the three months ended December 30, 2017, as the benefit of the tax deduction was revalued to the lower tax rate during this period.
Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company estimates forfeitures based on its historical forfeiture rate to date.rates. The estimated value of future forfeitures for equity grants as of December 30, 201725, 2021 is approximately $7.6$22 million.

15. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 25, 2021 was 5.6% and 6.8%, respectively. Such rates differ from the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) federal statutory rate of 19% primarily due to the favorable effect of a net operating loss carryback claim made in the United States as a result of COVID-19 related losses generated in the prior fiscal year and the impact of global financing activities partially offset by the increases in uncertain tax positions during the three and nine months ended December 25, 2021. The tax rate for the nine months ended December 25, 2021 also benefited from recently enacted tax legislation in Italy which allowed the Company to reduce its deferred tax liabilities by allowing a step up of certain intangible assets resulting in lower future cash taxes partially offset by the impact of tax rate changes in the United Kingdom on the Company’s net deferred tax liabilities.

The global financing activities are related to the Company’s 2014 move of its principal executive office from Hong Kong to the U.K. and decision to become a U.K. tax resident. In connection with this decision, the Company funded its international growth strategy through intercompany debt financing arrangements. These debt financing arrangements reside between certain of our U.S., U.K. and Hungarian subsidiaries. Due to the difference in the statutory income tax rates between these jurisdictions, the Company realized lower effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended December 25, 2021.

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has certain corporate costs that are not directly attributable to its brands and, therefore, are not allocated to its segments. Such costs primarily include certain administrative, corporate occupancy, shared service and information system expenses, including enterprise resource planning system implementation costs. In addition, certain other costs are not allocated to segments, including restructuring and other charges (including transition costs related to the Company’s acquisitions), impairment costs and COVID-19 related charges. The segment structure is consistent with how the Company’s CODM plans and allocates resources, manages the business and assesses performance. All intercompany revenues are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance. Corporate overhead expenses are allocated to the segments based upon specific usage or other allocation methods.

Certain Factors Affecting Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Establishing brand identityCOVID-19 Pandemic. See Item 1A — “The COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business and enhancing global presence. We intend to growresults of operations” of our international presence throughAnnual Report on Form 10-K for the formation of a global fashion luxury group, bringing together industry-leading fashion luxury brands. As mentioned above, on November 1, 2017, we completed our acquisition of Jimmy Choo for a total transaction value of $1.447 billion (see Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statementsfiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for additional information). Jimmy Choo has a rich history as a leading global luxury house, renowned for its glamorous and fashion-forward footwear, and is an excellent complementdiscussion regarding risks to the Michael Kors brand. We believe this combination further strengthens our future growth opportunities, while also increasing both product and geographic diversification. However, there are risksbusiness associated with a new acquisitionthe COVID-19 pandemic.

Channel shift, macroeconomic factors, and the anticipated benefits of the acquisition ondemand for our financial results may not be in line with our expectations.
We intend to continue to increase our international presenceaccessories and global brand recognition by growing our existing international operations, through acquisitions, the formation of various joint ventures with international partners and continuing with our international licensing arrangements. We feel this is an efficient method for continued penetration into the global luxury goods market, especially for markets where we have yet to establish a substantial presence. In addition, our growth strategy includes assuming direct control of certain international operations to better manage our growth opportunities in the related regions. On May 31, 2016, we acquired the previously licensed business in the Greater China region ("MKHKL"), which has operations in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.
See Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our recent acquisitions.
Channel Shift and Demand for Our Accessories and Related Merchandisemerchandise. Our performance is affected by trends in the luxury goods industry, global consumer spending, macroeconomic factors, overall levels of consumer travel and spending on discretionary items as well as shifts in demographics and changes in lifestyle preferences. Although consumer spending has recentlyThrough 2019, the personal luxury goods market grew at a 5% rate over the past 20 years, with more recent growth driven by stronger Chinese demand from both international and local consumers and demographic and socioeconomic shifts resulting in younger consumers purchasing more luxury goods. However, in 2020, due to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis, the personal luxury goods market declined 23%. Market studies indicate that the personal luxury goods market is predicted to increase at a 10% compound annual growth rate between 2020 and 2025, and is expected to have returned to 2019 levels by the end of 2021 or in 2022. Future growth is expected to be driven by e-commerce, Chinese consumers and younger generations. As the personal luxury goods market continues to evolve, Capri is committed to creating engaging luxury experiences globally. In our view, increased consumercustomer engagement and tailoring merchandise to customer shopping and communication preferences have continuedare key to shift from luxury products to luxury experiences. In addition, consumer shopping preferences have continued to shift from physical stores to on-line shopping. growing market share.

We currently expect that this trend will continue in the foreseeable future. During Fiscal 2017, we began to strategically reduce shipments of Michael Kors products to decrease promotional activity within our wholesale channel, which we believe is necessary to appropriately position the Michael Kors brand long-term. In addition, we have been strategically reducing promotional activity within our full-price retail stores. Wealso continue to adjust our retail operating strategy to the changing business environment and on May 31, 2017,environment. Last year, we announced that we planour Capri Retail Store Optimization Program to close between 100 and 125approximately 170 of our Michael Kors full-price retail stores over the next two yearsthroughout Fiscal 2021 and Fiscal 2022, in order to improve the profitability of our Michael Kors retail store fleet (“Retail Fleet Optimization Plan”).fleet. Over this time period, we expectinitially expected to incur approximately $100 - $125$75 million of one-time costs associated with these store closures.closures, however, based on a reassessment, we expect these costs to be approximately $25 million. As of December 25, 2021, we have closed a total of 140 stores and recorded net restructuring charges of $11 million relating to the program since its inception. Collectively, we continue to anticipate ongoing annual savings of approximately $60 million as a result of the store closures and lower depreciation and amortization associated with the impairment charges recorded during Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2018. During the three months and nine months ended December 30, 2017, we closed 24 of our Michael Kors full-price retail stores under the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan, which resulted in restructuring charges of $2.4 million and $8.3 million, respectively, recorded within restructuring and other charges in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.being recorded.


Foreign currency fluctuation. Our consolidated operations are impacted by the relationships between our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar, and those of our non-U.S. subsidiaries whose functional/local currency is other than the U.S. dollar. During the three months ended December 30, 2017, our results have been positively impacted by the strengthening ofdollar, particularly the Euro, the British Pound, the Canadian Dollar and the Chinese Renminbi, relative to the U.S. Dollar of 9%, 7%, 5% and 3%, respectively, partially offset by a decline in the value of the Japanese Yen, relative to the U.S. Dollar of 4%, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016. During the nine months ended December 30, 2017, our results have been positively impacted by the strengthening of the EuroKorean Won and the Canadian Dollar, relative to the U.S. Dollar of 4% and 2%, respectively, partially offset by the declines in value of the Japanese Yen of 5%, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2016.among others. We continue to expect significant volatility in the global foreign currency exchange rates, which may have a negative impact on the reported results of certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in the future, when translated to U.S. Dollars.

Disruptions or delays in shipping and distribution and other supply chain constraints. Our operations are subject to the impact of shipping disruptionsWe have been experiencing global logistics challenges, including delays as a result of changes or damageport congestion, vessel availability, container shortages and temporary factory closures which are expected to continue for the duration of Fiscal 2022 and into Fiscal 2023. Our freight costs have

increased as carrier rates for ocean and air shipments have increased significantly, and the supply chain disruptions have caused us to increase our distribution infrastructure, as well as due to external factors.use of air freight with greater frequency than in the past. Any future disruptions in our shipping and distribution network, including impacts on our supply chain due to temporary closures of our manufacturing partners and shipping and fulfillment constraints, could have a negative impact on our results of operations. See Item 1A — “Risk Factors” — “We primarily use foreign manufacturing contractors and independent third-party agents to source our finished goods and our business is subject to risks inherent in global sourcing activities, including disruptions or delays in manufacturing or shipments” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for additional discussion.
Costs of Manufacturing.manufacturing, tariffs, and import regulations. Our industry is subject to volatility in costs related to certain raw materials used in the manufacturing of our products. This volatility applies primarily to costs driven by commodity prices, which can increase or decrease dramatically over a short period of time. These fluctuationsIn addition, our costs may be impacted by sanction tariffs imposed on our products due to changes in trade terms. For example, we have historically received benefits from duty-free imports on certain products from certain countries pursuant to the U.S. Generalized System of Preferences (“GSP”) program. The GSP program expired on December 31, 2020. If the GSP program is not renewed or otherwise made retroactive, we will continue to experience significant additional duties and our gross margin will continue to be negatively impacted. Additionally, we are subject to government import regulations, including U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) withhold release orders. The imposition of taxes, duties and quotas, the withdrawal from or material modification to trade agreements, and/or if CBP detains shipments of our goods pursuant to a withhold release order could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If additional tariffs or trade restrictions are implemented by the U.S. or other countries, the cost of our products could increase which could adversely affect our business. In addition, commodity prices and tariffs may have an impact on our sales,revenues, results of operations and cash flows to the extent they occur.flows. We use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate these effects by sourcing our products as efficiently as possible.possible and diversifying the countries where we produce. In addition, manufacturing labor costs are also subject to degrees of volatility based on local and global economic conditions. We use commercially reasonable efforts to source from localities that suit our manufacturing standards and result in more favorable labor driven costs to our products.
U.S. Tax Reform. On December 22, 2017, the United States ("U.S.") government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act includes significant changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including, among other things, lowering U.S. statutory federal tax rate and implementing a territorial tax system. As we have a March 31 fiscal year-end, the lower tax rate will be phased in, resulting in a U.S. statutory federal tax rate of approximately 32% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 and a 21% U.S. statutory federal tax rate for fiscal years thereafter. The Tax Act also adds many new provisions, including changes to bonus depreciation, limits on the deductions for executive compensation and interest expense, a tax on global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"), the base erosion anti-abuse tax ("BEAT") and a deduction for foreign derived intangible income ("FDII"). We are still evaluating the impact of these provisions of the Tax Act, which do not apply until 2019, and thus, have not adjusted any net deferred tax assets of our foreign subsidiaries for the new tax.
As part of the transition to the new territorial tax system, the Tax Act imposes a tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. In addition, the reduction of the U.S. statutory federal tax rate will cause us to re-measure our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities.  In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, we recorded the effects of the tax law change during the three months ended December 30, 2017, which resulted in a provisional charge of $12.4 million, comprised of an estimated deemed repatriation tax charge of $0.3 million and an estimated deferred tax charge of $12.1 million due to the re-measurement of our net U.S. deferred tax assets. Conversely, we realized a $2.0 million net benefit for the three and nine month periods ended December 30, 2017 due to the corporate tax rate reductions. While the Tax Act has negatively impacted our results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 30, 2017 by approximately 370 basis points and 160 basis points, respectively, the lower corporate rate is expected to to result in a benefit to our effective tax rate for the next fiscal year of 300 to 400 basis points, which we plan to reinvest in our business.
In December 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 118 to provide guidance for companies that would allow for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. The final transition impacts of the Tax Act may differ from the above estimate, possibly materially, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations of the Tax Act, any legislative action to address questions that arise because of the Tax Act, or any changes in accounting standards for income taxes or related interpretations in response to the Tax Act. In addition, once we finalize certain tax positions when it files its 2017 U.S. tax return, we will be able to conclude whether any further adjustments are required to our deferred tax balances in the U.S., as well as to the total liability associated with the one-time mandatory tax. We believe that the analysis performed to date is sufficient to calculate a reasonable estimate of the impacts of the Tax Act.


Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies are those that are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In applying such policies, we must use certain assumptions that are based upon our informed judgments, assessments of probability and best estimates. Estimates, by their nature, are subjective and are based upon analysis of available information, including historical factors, current circumstances and the experience and judgment of management. Our critical accounting policies are disclosed in full in the MD&A section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 1, 2017. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since April 1, 2017, other than described below.
Share-Based Compensation
We use the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the grant date fair value of its share option awards. Beginning in Fiscal 2018, we started using our own historical experience in determining the expected holding period and volatility of our time-based share option awards. In prior periods, we used the simplified method for determining the expected life of our options and average volatility rates of similar actively traded companies over the estimated holding period, due to insufficient historical option exercise experience as a public company.

Seasonality
General Definitions for Operating ResultsWe experience certain effects of seasonality with respect to our business. We generally experience greater sales during our third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during our first fiscal quarter.
Total revenue consistsCritical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of sales from comparable retail storesfinancial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and e-commerce sitesassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and non-comparable retail storesliabilities and e-commerce sites, netdisclosure of returnscontingent assets and markdowns,liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies are those madethat are the most important to our wholesale customers, net of returns, discounts, markdowns and allowances. Additionally, revenue includes royalties and other contributions earned on sales of licensed products by our licensees as well as contractual royalty rates for the useportrayal of our trademarks in certain geographic territories.
Comparable store net sales include sales from a retail store or an e-commerce siteresults of operations and financial condition and that has been operating for one full year afterrequire our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments to make estimates about the endeffect of the first month of its operation under our ownership. For storesmatters that are closed, sales that were made in the final month of their operations (assuming closure prior to the fiscal month’s end), are excluded from the calculation of comparable store sales. Additionally, sales for storesinherently uncertain. In applying such policies, we must use certain assumptions that are either relocated, or expanded by a square footage of 25% or greater, in any given fiscal year, are also excluded from the calculation of comparable store sales at the time of their move or interruption, until such stores have been in their new location, or are operating under their new size/capacity, for at least one full year after the end of the first month of their relocation or expansion. All comparable store sales are presented on a 52-week basis. Comparable store sales are reported on a global basis, which represents management’s view of our Company as an expanding global business.


Constant currency effects are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, which are provided to supplement our reported operating results to facilitate comparisons of our operating results and trends in our business, excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Because we are a global company, foreign currency exchange rates may have a significant effectbased on our reported results. We calculate constant currency measuresinformed judgments, assessments of probability and best estimates. Estimates, by their nature, are subjective and are based on analysis of available information, including current and historical factors and the related foreign currency impacts by translating the current-year’s reported amounts into comparable amounts using prior year’s foreign exchange rates for each currency. All constant currency performance measures discussed below should be considered a supplement toexperience and notjudgment of management. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. While our significant accounting policies are detailed in lieu of our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Cost of goods sold includes the cost of inventory sold, freight-in on merchandise and foreign currency exchange gains/losses related to designated forward contracts for purchase commitments.

Revenue from our Michael Kors retail stores increased $9.6 million, or 1.1%, to $846.3 million for the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $836.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $17.8 million. On a constant currency basis, revenue from our Michael Kors retail stores decreased $8.2 million, or 1.0%. We operated 848 Michael Kors retail stores, including concessions, as of December 30, 2017, compared to 816 Michael Kors retail stores, including concessions, as of December 31, 2016.
During the three months ended December 30, 2017, our comparable store sales decreased $24.2 million, or 3.2%, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of approximately $15.6 million. Our comparable store sales benefited approximately 170 basis pointscontinued recovery from the inclusion of e-commerce sales in comparable store sales. On a constant currency basis, our comparable store sales decreased $39.8 million, or 5.2%. The decrease in our comparable store sales was attributable to lower sales from our women’s accessoriesCOVID-19 pandemic and watches product categories, offset in part by higher sales from women's apparel, men’s product categories and women's footwear during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016.
Our non-comparable store sales increased $33.8 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $2.2 million. On a constant currency basis, our non-comparable store sales increased $31.6 million. The increase in non-comparable store sales was primarily attributable to operating an additional 32 stores since December 31, 2016.
MK Wholesale
Revenue from our Michael Kors wholesale customers decreased $42.3 million, or 8.9%, to $430.8 million for the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $473.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of approximately $7.4 million. On a constant currency basis, our wholesale revenue decreased $49.7 million, or 10.5%. The decrease in our wholesale revenue was primarily attributable to our strategic reduction in shipments of Michael Kors products to decrease promotional activity within our wholesale channel, as previously described, which resulted in lower women's accessories and footwear sales, partially offset by higher sales from men's and women's apparel product lines during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016.
MK Licensing
Royalties earned on our Michael Kors licensing agreements increased $5.3 million, or 12.3%, to $48.3 million for the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $43.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to higher licensing revenuesadverse impacts related to Michael Kors ACCESS watches and eyewear, partially offset by lower licensing revenues related to sales of connected jewelry, which has been discontinued.
Jimmy Choo
The Jimmy Choo business acquired on November 1, 2017 contributed approximately $114.7 million to our total revenue forCOVID-19 in the three months ended December 30, 2017.prior fiscal year.


Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $78.3 million, or 9.7%, to $884.0 million for the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $805.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $16.1 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue increased 180 basis points to 61.4% during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to 59.6% during the three months ended December 31, 2016, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit margin from our retail segment of 310 basis points, primarily driven by lower cost of goods, decreased promotional activity and favorable geographic mix of sales. The increase in gross margin was partially offset by a decrease of 270 basis points in our wholesale segment gross margin, primarily driven by increased allowances and unfavorable geographic mix, partially offset by lower costs of goods during the three months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016.
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased $106.7 million, or 23.0%, to $570.5 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $463.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Our operating expenses included a net unfavorable foreign currency impact of approximately $12.7 million. Total operating expenses increased to 39.6% as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to 34.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The components that comprise total operating expenses are explained below.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $78.3 million, or 19.2%, to $485.9 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $407.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the following:
incremental costs of $52.7 million associated with our newly acquired Jimmy Choo business, which has been consolidated in our operations beginning on November 1, 2017 and
an increase of $16.0 million in Michael Kors retail store and overhead costs, primarily comprised of increased occupancy costs of $6.6 million and increased advertising costs of $7.0 million.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 33.7% for the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to 30.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to expenses associated with the newly acquired Jimmy Choo business as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization decreased $1.7 million, or 3.1%, to $54.0 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $55.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to lower depreciation due to fixed asset impairment charges recorded in Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2018, partially offset by incremental depreciation and amortization expense of $5.8 million attributable to the newly acquired Jimmy Choo business. Depreciation and amortization decreased to 3.7% as a percentage of total revenue during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to 4.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2016.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
During the three months ended December 30, 2017, we recognized long-lived asset impairment charges of $2.6 million, which were related to underperforming Michael Kors full-price retail store locations, some of which will be closed as part of our previously announced Retail Fleet Optimization Plan (see Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). During the three months ended December 31, 2016, we recognized fixed asset impairment charges of approximately $0.5 million, which were related to our Michael Kors wholesale locations.
Restructuring and Other Charges
During the three months ended December 30, 2017, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $28.0 million, which were comprised of $22.2 million of transaction costs and $3.4 million of transition costs recorded in connection with the Jimmy Choo acquisition and restructuring charges of $2.4 million recorded in connection with the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan (see Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).


Income from Operations
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations decreased $28.4 million, or 8.3%, to $313.5 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $341.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Income from operations as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 21.8% during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to 25.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Income from operations as a percentage of retail revenue remained flat at 21.3% in both periods, as the 310 basis point increase in gross profit margin, as previously discussed above, was completely offset by an increase in operating expenses, during the three months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of retail revenue was primarily attributable to increased retail store-related costs and restructuring and other charges, including transaction and transition costs related to the Jimmy Choo acquisition, partially offset by lower depreciation expenses during the three months ended December 30, 2017.
MK Wholesale
Income from operations for our MK Wholesale segment decreased $39.7 million, or 28.3%, to $100.5 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $140.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Income from operations as a percentage of wholesale revenue decreased 630 basis points from 29.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2016 to 23.3% during the three months ended December 30, 2017, which was primarily attributable to a 360 basis point increase in operating expenses and a 270 basis point decrease in gross profit margin, as previously discussed above. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of wholesale revenue was primarily attributable to increased corporate allocated expenses, including transaction and transition costs related to the Jimmy Choo acquisition and higher selling expenses.
MK Licensing
Income from operations for our MK Licensing segment increased $3.4 million, or 14.5%, to $26.9 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $23.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Income from operations as a percentage of licensing revenue increased 100 basis points from 54.7% during the three months ended December 31, 2016 to 55.7% during the three months ended December 30, 2017, which was primarily due to lower advertising costs, partially offset by increased selling costs and allocated transaction and transition costs related to the Jimmy Choo acquisition as a percentage of licensing revenue during the three months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016.
Jimmy Choo
The Jimmy Choo business acquired on November 1, 2017 contributed approximately $5.7 million to our income from operations for the three months ended December 30, 2017 (after amortization of non-cash purchase accounting adjustments and transaction and transition related costs).


Other Income, net
During the three months ended December 31, 2016, other income of $4.1 million was primarily comprised of $3.8 million in insurance settlements related to the prior-year disruption to our former third party operated e-commerce fulfillment center.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net increased $4.9 million to $8.3 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $3.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to higher interest expense on long-term borrowings used to finance the acquisition of Jimmy Choo during the three months ended December 30, 2017 (see Note 9 for additional information).
Foreign Currency Loss
During the three month periods ended December 30, 2017, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $27.0 million, which primarily included a $32.0 million loss related to a forward foreign currency exchange derivative contract to hedge the Jimmy Choo transaction price (please refer to Note 3 and Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information), partially offset by the remeasurement of intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.
Provision for Income Taxes
We recognized $58.9 million of income tax expense during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $70.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended December 30, 2017, was 21.2%, compared to 20.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impacts of the Tax Act enacted in the United States that were recorded during the three months ended December 30, 2017. This net increase is comprised of the write down of our deferred tax assets as a result of the Tax Act’s reduction in the base corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, partially offset by the current tax benefit of the rate reduction on our annualized effective tax rate. Additionally this increase was offset due to the favorable effect of global financing activities. The global financing activities are related to our previously disclosed 2014 move of our principal executive office from Hong Kong to the United Kingdom ("U.K.") and decision to become a U.K. tax resident. In connection with this decision, we funded our international growth strategy through intercompany debt financing arrangements between our U.S., U.K. and Switzerland subsidiaries in December 2015. Accordingly, due to the difference in the statutory income tax rates between these jurisdictions, we realized a lower effective tax rate. The impact on our effective tax rate was higher in Fiscal 2018 than in Fiscal 2017 because the debt financing arrangement produced the same tax impact on reduced pre-tax income.
Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.
Net Income Attributable to MKHL
As a result of the foregoing, our net income attributable to MKHL decreased $51.9 million, or 19.1%, to $219.4 million during the three months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $271.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Total revenue increased $110.2 million, or 3.2%, to $3.539 billion for the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $3.429 billion for the nine months ended December 31, 2016, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $26.4 million primarily related to the strengthening of the Euro and the Canadian Dollar, partially offset by the weakening of the the Japanese Yen against the U.S. Dollar during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the same prior year period. On a constant currency basis, our total revenue increased $83.8 million, or 2.4%.

Revenue from our Michael Kors retail stores increased $114.4 million, or 5.7%, to $2.111 billion for the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $1.997 billion for the nine months ended December 31, 2016, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $14.3 million. On a constant currency basis, revenue from our retail stores increased $100.1 million, or 5.0%. We operated 848 Michael Kors retail stores, including concessions, as of December 30, 2017, compared to 816 Michael Kors retail stores, including concessions, as of December 31, 2016.
During the nine months ended December 30, 2017, our comparable store sales decreased $62.1 million, or 3.5%, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $14.6 million. Our comparable store sales benefited approximately 250 basis points from the inclusion of e-commerce sales in comparable store sales. On a constant currency basis, our comparable store sales decreased $76.7 million, or 4.3%. The decrease in our comparable store sales was primarily attributable to lower sales from our women’s accessories, watches and jewelry product categories, offset in part by higher sales from men’s apparel and women's apparel and footwear during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2016.
Our non-comparable store sales increased $176.5 million during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, which included net unfavorable foreign currency effects of $0.3 million. On a constant currency basis, non-comparable store sales increased $176.8 million. The increase in non-comparable store sales was primarily attributable to operating 32 additional stores since December 31, 2016. Our Greater China business acquired on May 31, 2016 contributed incremental revenues of approximately $42.0 million to non-comparable store sales for the nine months ended December 30, 2017.

On a constant currency basis, our wholesale revenue decreased $133.8 million, or 10.1%. The decrease in our wholesale revenue was primarily attributable to our strategic reduction in shipments of Michael Kors products to decrease promotional activity within our wholesale channel, as previously described,which resulted in lower women’s accessories and footwear sales during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2016. Approximately $7.9 million of the decrease in wholesale revenue was due to the absence of the prior period wholesale sales to our former licensee in Greater China.
MK Licensing
Royalties earned on our Michael Kors licensing agreements increased $2.8 million, or 2.5%, to $115.2 million for the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $112.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to higher licensing royalties related to Michael Kors ACCESS watches and eyewear, partially offset by lower licensing revenues related to sales of fashion watches, the absence of licensing revenues from our previously licensed business in Greater China due to our acquisition of the related operations, and lower licensing revenues related to sales of fragrance, jewelry and connected jewelry (which has been discontinued).
Jimmy Choo
The Jimmy Choo business acquired on November 1, 2017 contributed approximately $114.7 million to our total revenue for the nine months ended December 30, 2017.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was26, 2020, primarily due to the following:

Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization decreased $12.6$5 million, or 7.8%9.6%, to $149.9$47 million duringfor the ninethree months ended December 30, 2017,25, 2021, compared to $162.5$52 million for the ninethree months ended December 31, 2016.26, 2020. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to lower depreciation due to fixed asset impairment charges recordedlower capital expenditures in Fiscal 20172022 and Fiscal 2018. The depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended December 30, 2017 included incremental depreciation and amortization of $5.8 million related to the newly acquired Jimmy Choo business, as well as $5.7 million of incremental depreciation and amortization expenses due to the inclusion of the Greater China business for the full period during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, both including amortization of the respective purchase accounting adjustments.2021.

Income from operations as a percentage of retail revenue increased 50 basis points from 15.7% for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 to 16.2% during the nine months ended December 30, 2017.26, 2020. The increase$17 million improvement in retail income from operations as a percentage ofinterest (income) expense, net, retail sales was primarily due to a 210 basis point increase in gross profit margin, as previously discussed, partially offset by increase in operating expenses as a percentage of retail revenue of approximately 170 basis points during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of retail revenue was primarily due to increased fixed asset impairment charges, higher retail store related costs, restructuring charges and allocated transaction and transition costs in connection with the Jimmy Choo acquisition recorded during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, offset in part by lower depreciation expenses.
MK Wholesale
Income from operations for our MK Wholesale segment decreased $103.6 million, or 28.2%, to $263.6 million during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $367.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2016. Income from operations as a percentage of wholesale revenue decreased approximately 580 basis points from 27.8% during the nine months ended December 31, 2016 to 22.0% during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, which wasis primarily due to an increase of interest income from higher average notional amounts outstanding and more favorable interest rates on our net investment hedges in operating expenses asthe current year and a percentage of wholesale revenue of approximately 350 basis points, as well as a 230 basis point decrease in our wholesale gross profit margin, as previously discussed. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of wholesale sales was primarilyinterest expense attributable to increased corporate allocated expenses, including transaction and transition costs associated with the Jimmy Choo acquisition, as well as a deleverage in other operating expenses due to lower wholesale revenue.


MK Licensing
Income from operations for our MK Licensing segment increased $0.2 million, or 0.4%, to $51.1 million during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $50.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2016. Income from operations as a percentage of licensing revenue decreased 90 basis points from 45.3% during the nine months ended December 31, 2016 to 44.4% during the nine months ended December 30, 2017. The decrease in licensing income from operations as a percentage of licensing revenue was attributable to increased operating expenses as a percentage of licensing revenue during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to increased allocated transaction and transition expenses associated with the Jimmy Choo acquisition, partially offset by lower advertising costs as a percentage of licensing revenue.
Jimmy Choo
The Jimmy Choo business acquired on November 1, 2017 contributed approximately $5.7 million to our income from operations for the nine months ended December 30, 2017 (after amortization of non-cash purchase accounting adjustments and transaction and transition related costs).
Other Income, net
During the nine months ended December 31, 2016, other income of $4.7 million was primarily comprised of $3.8 million in insurance settlements related to the prior-year disruption to our former third party operated e-commerce fulfillment center, as well as $0.6 million of income related to our anti-counterfeiting efforts.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net increased $5.1 million to $10.2 million during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $5.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to higher interest expense on long-termaverage borrowings used to finance the acquisition of Jimmy Choo during the nine months ended December 30, 2017outstanding (see Note 9 for additional information).
Foreign Currency (Gain) Loss
We recognized a net foreign currency gain of $14.7 million during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, which primarily included a $4.7 million realized gain related to a forward foreign currency exchange derivative contract to hedge the transaction price (please refer to Note 3 and Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information), as well as.
Foreign Currency Gain
For the three months ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, we recognized a net gains on revaluationforeign currency gain of $4 million and settlement of certain of our accounts payable in currencies other than the functional currency of the applicable reporting units, and$13 million, respectively, primarily attributable to the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.
Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes
The foreign currency loss of $2.2provision for income taxes was $19 million recorded duringfor the ninethree months ended December 31, 2016 were primarily attributable25, 2021, compared to net losses on revaluation and settlementa benefit of certain of our accounts payable in currencies other than$5 million for the functional currency of the applicable reporting units, as well as the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries. These losses were partially offset by favorable mark-to-market adjustments on our forward foreign currency contracts not designated as accounting hedges.
Provision for Income Taxes
We recognized $119.9 million of income tax expense during the ninethree months ended December 30, 2017, compared with $151.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2016.26, 2020. Our effective tax rate was 5.6% and (2.9)% for the ninethree months ended December 30, 2017, was 18.0%, compared to 20.8% for the nine months ended25, 2021 and December 31, 2016.26, 2020, respectively. The decreasechange in our effective tax rate was primarily duerelated to increases in uncertain tax positions and release of certain valuation allowances in the prior year which were not recurring, partially offset by the favorable effect of global financing activities during the nine months ended December 30, 2017. The global financing activities are related to our previously disclosed 2014 move of our principal executive office from Hong Kong to the U.K. and decision to become a U.K. tax resident. In connection with this decision, we funded our international growth strategy through intercompany debt financing arrangements between our U.S., U.K. and Switzerland subsidiaries in December 2015. Accordingly, due to the differencenet operating loss carryback claim made in the statutory income tax rates between these jurisdictions, we realized a lower effective tax rate. The impact on our effective tax rate was higher in Fiscal 2018 than in Fiscal 2017 because the debt financing arrangement produced the same tax impact on a reduced pre-tax income. During the nine months ended December 30, 2017, our effective tax rate was increased by the impacts of the Tax Act, comprised of the write down of our deferred tax assetsUnited States as a result of COVID-19 related losses. See Note 15 to the Tax Act’s reduction inaccompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the base corporateeffective tax rate from 35% to 21%, partially offset byfor the current tax benefit of the rate reduction on our annualized effective tax rate.


fiscal year quarter.
Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.
Net LossIncome (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest
DuringFor the ninethree months ended December 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016,25, 2021, we recorded net lossesincome of $1 million and for the three months ended December 26, 2020, we recorded a net loss of $1 million, attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint ventures of $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively.ventures. These lossesamounts represent the share of income (loss) that is not attributable to the Company.

Net Income Attributable to Capri
As a result of the foregoing, our net income increased $143 million to $322 million for the three months ended December 25, 2021, compared to a net income of $179 million for the three months ended December 26, 2020.

Total Revenue
Total revenue increased $1.299 billion, or 45.4%, to $4.162 billion for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to $2.863 billion for the nine months ended December 26, 2020, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of approximately $71 million, primarily related to the strengthening of the British Pound, Euro, Chinese Renminbi and Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar for the nine months ended December 25, 2021. On a constant currency basis, our total revenue increased $1.228 billion, or 42.9%. The increase is attributable to the continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. In the prior fiscal year, the Company experienced widespread, temporary store closures and a significant decline in store traffic.
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $928 million, or 49.9%, to $2.788 billion for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to $1.860 billion for the nine months ended December 26, 2020, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $48 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue increased 200 basis points to 67.0% for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to 65.0% for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily attributable to a higher average unit price and lower promotional activity, partially offset by increases in supply chain costs and unfavorable channel mix.

Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased $302 million, or 17.7%, to $2.004 billion for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to $1.702 billion for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. Our operating expenses included a net unfavorable foreign currency impact of approximately $49 million. Total operating expenses decreased to 48.1% as a percentage of total revenue for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to 59.4% for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. The components that comprise total operating expenses are explained below.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $386 million, or 27.3%, to $1.800 billion for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to $1.414 billion for the nine months ended December 26, 2020, primarily due to increased retail store, e-commerce, corporate costs and marketing expenses for the nine months ended December 25, 2021.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 43.2% for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to 49.4% for the nine months ended December 26, 2020, primarily due to leveraging of operating expenses as a result of higher revenue.
Unallocated corporate expenses, which are included within selling, general and administrative expenses discussed above, but are not directly attributable to a reportable segment, increased $33 million, or 36.7%, to $123 million for the nine months ended December 25, 2021 as compared to $90 million for the nine months ended December 26, 2020, primarily due to an increase in compensation expense and professional fees.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization decreased $14 million, or 8.8%, to $146 million for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to $160 million for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to lower depreciation due to lower capital expenditures in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021. Depreciation and amortization decreased to 3.5% as a percentage of total revenue for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to 5.6% for the nine months ended December 26, 2020 primarily due to higher revenues for the nine months ended December 25, 2021.
Impairment of Assets
For the nine months ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, we recognized asset impairment charges of $33 million and $110 million, respectively, which primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets at certain Michael Kors store locations. See Note 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Restructuring and Other Charges
For the nine months ended December 25, 2021, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $25 million, which included other costs of $19 million primarily related to equity awards associated with the acquisition of Versace and $6 million related to our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program (see Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).
For the nine months ended December 26, 2020, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $18 million, which included other costs of $17 million primarily related to equity awards associated with the acquisition of Versace and $1 million related to our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program.
Restructuring and other charges are not evaluated as part of our reportable segments’ results (see Segment Information above for additional information).
Income from Operations
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations increased $626 million, to $784 million for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to $158 million for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. Income from operations as a percentage of total revenue increased to 18.8% for the nine months ended December 25, 2021, compared to 5.5% for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. See Segment Information above for a reconciliation of our segment operating income to total operating income.
43


Interest (Income) Expense, net
For the nine months ended December 25, 2021, we recognized $11 million of interest income compared to $39 million of interest expense for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. The $50 million improvement in interest (income) expense, net, is primarily due to an increase of interest income from higher average notional amounts outstanding and more favorable interest rates on our net investment hedges in the current year and a decrease in interest expense attributable to lower average borrowings outstanding (see Note 9 and Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).
Foreign Currency Loss (Gain)
For the nine months ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $1 million and a net foreign currency gain of $16 million, respectively, primarily attributable to the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.
Provision for Income Taxes

For the nine months ended December 25, 2021, we recognized $54 million of income tax expense compared to $20 million for the nine months ended December 26, 2020. Our effective tax rate was 6.8% and 14.4% for the nine months ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, respectively. The decrease in our effective rate was primarily due to the favorable effect of a net operating loss carryback claim made in the United States as a result of COVID-19 related losses and a benefit recognized as a result of recently enacted tax legislation in Italy which allowed the Company to reduce its deferred tax liabilities. Specifically, this change allowed the Company to step up certain intangible assets which will result in lower future cash taxes.
Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest
For the nine months ended December 25, 2021, we recorded net income of $1 million and for the nine months ended December 26, 2020, we recorded a net loss of $2 million, attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint ventures. These amounts represent the share of income (loss) that is not attributable to the Company.
Net Income Attributable to MKHLCapri
As a result of the foregoing, our net income decreased $31.5increased $620 million or 5.4%, to $547.8 million during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, compared to $579.3a net income of $741 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2016.25, 2021, compared to a net income of $121 million for the nine months ended December 26, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated from our operations, along with borrowings available under our credit facilities (see below discussion regarding “Revolving Credit Facilities”) and available cash and cash equivalents. Our primary use of this liquidity is to fund ourthe ongoing cash requirements, including our working capital requirements, acquisitions,needs and capital investments in our business, debt repayments, global retail store construction, expansion and renovation, investment in information systems infrastructure, our distribution and corporate facilities, construction and renovationacquisitions, returns of shop-in-shops,capital, including share repurchases and other corporate activities. We believe that the cash generated from our operations, together with borrowings available under our revolving credit facilityfacilities and available cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next 12 months and beyond, including investments made and expenses incurred in connection with our store growth plans, shop-in-shop growth, investments in corporate and distribution facilities, continued systems development, e-commerce and marketing initiatives. We spent $83.8$85 million on capital expenditures during the nine months ended December 30, 2017, and expect to spend approximately $90 million on capital expenditures during the remainder of Fiscal 2018.25, 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks during the normal course of our business, such as risk arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, as well as fluctuations in interest rates. In attemptsorder to manage these risks, we employ certain strategies to mitigate the effect of these fluctuations. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to manage our foreign currency exposure to the fluctuations of certain foreign currencies. The use of these instruments primarily helpshelp to manage our exposure to our foreign purchase commitments and better control our product costs. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
We are exposed to risks on certain purchase commitments to foreign suppliers based on the value of our purchasing subsidiariessubsidiaries’ local currency relative to the currency requirement of the supplier on the date of the commitment. As such, we enter into forward currency exchange contracts that generally mature in 12 months or less and are consistent with the related purchase commitments.commitments, to manage our exposure to the changes in the value of the Euro and the Canadian Dollar. These contracts are recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or liability, and are derivative contracts to hedge cash flow risks. Certain of these contracts are designated as hedges for hedge accounting purposes, while certain of these contracts, currently a relatively small portion, are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the changes in the fair value of the majority of these contracts at the balance sheet date are recorded in our equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, and upon maturity (settlement) are recorded in, or reclassified into, our cost of goods sold or operating expenses, in our
consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income, as applicable to the transactions for which the forward currency exchange contracts were established. For those contracts which are designated as hedges for accounting purposes, any portion of those contracts deemed ineffective would be charged to earnings, in the period the ineffectiveness was determined.
We perform a sensitivity analysis on our forward currency contracts, both designated and not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, to determine the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For this sensitivity analysis, we assume a hypothetical change in U.S. dollarDollar against foreign exchange rates. Based on all designated foreign currency exchange contracts relating to purchases of inventory outstanding as of December 30, 2017,25, 2021, a 10% appreciation or devaluation of the U.S. dollarDollar compared to the level of foreign currency exchange rates for currencies under contract as of December 30, 2017,25, 2021, would result in a net increase orand decrease, respectively, of $17.0approximately $14 million in the fair value of these contracts.
Net Investment Hedges
We are exposed to adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements related to our net investment hedges. As of December 25, 2021, we have multiple fixed to fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $4 billion to hedge our net investment in Euro-denominated subsidiaries and $194 million to hedge our net investments in Japanese Yen-denominated subsidiaries against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and this currency. Under the term of these contracts, we will exchange the semi-annual fixed rate payments on U.S. denominated debt for fixed rate payments of 0% to 4.457% in Euros and 0% to 3.408% in Japanese Yen. Based on the net investment hedges outstanding as of December 25, 2021, a 10% appreciation or devaluation of the U.S. Dollar compared to the level of foreign currency exchange rates for currencies under contract as of December 25, 2021, would result in a potential net increase or decrease upon settlement of approximately $511 million in the fair value of this contract. Certain of these contracts include mandatory early termination dates between August 2025 and February 2026, while the remaining contracts have maturity dates between May 2024 and February 2051. In addition, certain other contracts are supported by a credit support annex (“CSA”) which provides for collateral exchange with the earliest effective date being November 2023. If the outstanding position of a contract exceeds a certain threshold governed by the aforementioned CSA’s, either party is required to post cash collateral.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk in relation to borrowings outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility, our 2017 Credit Facility, our Hong Kong Credit Facility, and our Japan Credit Facility.Facility and our Versace Credit Facilities. Our 2018 Term Loan Facility carries interest at a rate that is based on LIBOR. Our 20172018 Credit Facility carries interest rates that are tied to LIBOR and the prime rate, among other institutional lending rates (depending on the particular origination of borrowing), as further described in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Our Hong Kong Credit Facility carries interest at a rate that is tied to the Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate. Our China Credit Facility carries interest at a rate that is tied to the People’s Bank of China’s Benchmark lending rate. Our Japan Credit Facility carries interest at a rate posted by the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. Our Versace Credit Facility carries interest at a rate set by the bank on the date of borrowing that is tied to the European Central Bank. Therefore, our statements of operations and comprehensive income and cash flows are exposed to changes in those interest rates. At December 30, 2017,25, 2021, we had $548.2$20 million borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, $495 million, net of debt issuance costs, outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility and no borrowings
50


outstanding under our Versace Credit Facilities. At March 27, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, $865 million, net of debt issuance costs, outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility and no borrowings outstanding under our 2017Versace Credit Facility, our Hong Kong Credit Facility and our Japan Facility. These balances are not indicative of future balances that may be outstanding under our revolving credit facilities that may be subject to fluctuations in interest rates. Any increases in the applicable interest rate(s) would cause an increase to the interest expense relative to any outstanding balance at that date.
We have outstanding $450.0Credit Risk
Our $450 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes, due 2024. The Senior Notesin 2024, bear interest at a fixed rate equal to 4.000%4.500% per year, payable semi-annually. Our Senior Notes interest rate payable may be subject to adjustments from time to time if either Moody’s or S&P (or a substitute rating agency), downgrades (or downgrades and subsequently upgrades) the credit rating assigned to the Senior Notes.

On an overall basis, our exposure to market risk has not significantly changed from what we reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The COVID-19 pandemic does present new and emerging uncertainty to the financial markets. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for additional information.
