| (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | ||||||||
| (a) Principles of Consolidation | ||||||||
| The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. | ||||||||
| (b) Fiscal Year | ||||||||
| The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31 of each year. The years ended February 1, 2014, February 2, 2013, and January 28, 2012 are referred to as fiscal 2013, fiscal 2012, and fiscal 2011, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Fiscal year 2012 is comprised of 53 weeks, while fiscal years 2013 and 2011 are each comprised of 52 weeks. | ||||||||
| (c) Cash and Cash Equivalents/Concentration of Credit Risk | ||||||||
| For purposes of the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be high credit quality banks and institutional money market funds. The Company maintains cash accounts that exceed federally insured limits. | ||||||||
| (d) Inventory | ||||||||
| Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market as determined by the retail inventory method for store inventory and the average cost method for distribution center inventory. Under the retail inventory method, the cost of inventory is determined by calculating a cost-to-retail ratio and applying it to the retail value of inventory. Merchandise markdowns are reflected in the inventory valuation when the retail price of an item is lowered in the stores. Inventory is recorded net of an allowance for shrinkage based on the most recent physical inventory counts. | ||||||||
| (e) Property and Equipment, net | ||||||||
| Property and equipment, net are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful lives (primarily three to five years for computer equipment and furniture, fixtures and equipment, five years for leasehold improvements, seven years for major purchased software systems, and fifteen to twenty years for buildings and building improvements) of the related assets or the relevant lease term. | ||||||||
| (f) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | ||||||||
| If facts and circumstances indicate that a long-lived asset may be impaired, the carrying value is reviewed. If this review indicates that the carrying value of the asset will not be recovered as determined based on projected undiscounted cash flows related to the asset over its remaining life, the carrying value of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. | ||||||||
| (g) Insurance Liabilities | ||||||||
| The Company is largely self-insured for workers’ compensation costs and employee medical claims. The Company’s self-insured retention or deductible, as applicable, for each claim involving workers’ compensation and employee medical is limited to $250,000 and $65,000, respectively. Self-insurance liabilities are based on the total estimated costs of claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not reported, less amounts paid against such claims. Current and historical claims data, together with information from actuarial studies, are used in developing the estimates. The insurance liabilities that are recorded are primarily influenced by the frequency and severity of claims and the Company’s growth. If the underlying facts and circumstances related to the claims change, then the Company may be required to record more or less expense which could be material in relation to results of operations. | ||||||||
| (h) Stock-Based Compensation | ||||||||
| The Company recognizes compensation expense associated with all nonvested restricted stock and stock options based on an estimate of the grant-date fair value of each equity award. Grants of time-based nonvested restricted stock are valued based on the closing stock price on the grant date, while grants of performance-based restricted stock units are valued at an estimate of fair market value using a lattice model. The fair values of options issued are estimated at each grant date using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. See Note 10 for additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation plans. | ||||||||
| (i) Revenue Recognition | ||||||||
| Revenue from retail sales net of sales taxes is recognized at the time the customer takes possession of and pays for merchandise, less an allowance for returns. The Company allows customers to return merchandise for up to thirty days after the date of sale and the Company reduces revenues for each fiscal year using a combination of actual and estimated return information for the returns in the thirty days after the year ends. The provision for returns was $0.1 million as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013. Revenue from layaway sales is recognized when the customer has paid for and received the merchandise. If the merchandise is not fully paid for within sixty days, the customer is given a store credit for merchandise payments made, less a re-stocking and layaway service fee. Such fees, which are non-refundable, are recognized in revenue when collected. The introduction of gift cards to all stores was completed in 2010. Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are deferred until the customers use the cards to purchase merchandise. No amounts have yet been amortized into income for gift cards that were sold and are not expected to be redeemed (“breakage”) due to the lack of time that has lapsed since cards began being sold under the program and the relative immateriality of the total gift card liability ($0.6 million and $0.5 million as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, respectively). All sales are from cash, check or major credit card company transactions. The Company does not offer company-sponsored customer credit accounts. | ||||||||
| (j) Cost of Sales | ||||||||
| Cost of sales includes the cost of inventory sold during the period and transportation costs, including inbound freight related to inventory sold and freight from the distribution centers to the stores, net of discounts and allowances. Distribution center costs, store occupancy expenses and advertising expenses are not considered components of cost of sales and are included as part of selling, general and administrative expenses. Depreciation is also not considered a component of cost of sales and is included as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations. Distribution center costs (exclusive of depreciation) for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $13.2 million, $13.4 million and $12.3 million, respectively. | ||||||||
| (k) Earnings per Share | ||||||||
| Basic earnings per common share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the additional dilution for all potentially dilutive securities, such as nonvested restricted stock and stock options. During loss periods, diluted loss per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding because the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. | ||||||||
| The following table provides a reconciliation of the number of average common shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per share to the number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding used in calculating diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011: | ||||||||
| 2013 | 2012 | 2011 | ||||||
| Average number of common shares outstanding | 14,798,154 | 14,671,638 | 14,589,247 | |||||
| Incremental shares from assumed exercises of stock options | 1,187 | — | — | |||||
| Incremental shares from assumed vesting of nonvested restricted stock | 14,103 | — | — | |||||
| Average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding | 14,813,444 | 14,671,638 | 14,589,247 | |||||
| The dilutive effect of stock-based compensation arrangements is accounted for using the treasury stock method. This method assumes that the proceeds the Company receives from the exercise of stock options are used to repurchase common shares in the market. The Company includes as assumed proceeds the amount of compensation cost attributed to future services and not yet recognized, and the amount of tax benefits, if any, that would be credited to additional paid-in capital assuming exercise of outstanding options and vesting of nonvested restricted stock. For fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, there were 41,000, 47,000, and 53,000 options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because of antidilution. For fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, there were 607,000, 402,000 and 361,000 shares of nonvested restricted stock, respectively, excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because of antidilution. | ||||||||
| (l) Advertising | ||||||||
| The Company expenses advertising as incurred. Advertising expense for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $2.4 million, $3.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively. | ||||||||
| (m) Operating Leases | ||||||||
| The Company leases all of its store properties and accounts for the leases as operating leases. Many lease agreements contain tenant improvement allowances, rent holidays, rent escalation clauses and/or contingent rent provisions. For purposes of recognizing incentives and minimum rent expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases, the Company uses the date of initial possession to begin amortization, which is generally when the Company enters the space and begins to make improvements in preparation of intended use. | ||||||||
| For scheduled rent escalation clauses during the lease terms or for rental payments commencing “rent holidays” at a date other than the date of initial occupancy, the Company records minimum rent expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Tenant improvement allowances are included in accrued expenses (current portion) and other long-term liabilities (noncurrent portion) and are amortized over the lease term. Changes in the balances of tenant improvement allowances are included as a component of operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. | ||||||||
| Certain leases provide for contingent rents that are not measurable at inception. These contingent rents are primarily based on a percentage of net sales that are in excess of a predetermined level. These amounts are excluded from minimum rent and are included in the determination of total rent expense when it is probable that the expense has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. | ||||||||
| The Company is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability’s fair value can be reasonably estimated. As of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, the Company included a liability of $0.7 million in other long-term liabilities, representing estimated expenses that would be incurred upon the termination of the Company’s operating leases. | ||||||||
| (n) Store Opening and Closing Costs | ||||||||
| New and relocated store opening period costs are charged directly to expense when incurred. When the Company decides to close or relocate a store, the Company records an expense for the present value of expected future rent payments, net of sublease income, if any, in the period that a store closes or relocates. All store opening and closing costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. | ||||||||
| (o) Income Taxes | ||||||||
| Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. | ||||||||
| (p) Use of Estimates | ||||||||
| The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and use assumptions 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||||||||
| The most significant estimates made by management include those used in the valuation of inventory, property and equipment, self-insurance liabilities, leases and income taxes. Management periodically evaluates estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for continued reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based on such periodic evaluations. | ||||||||
| (q) Business Reporting Segments | ||||||||
| The Company is a value-priced retailer of urban fashion apparel and accessories for the entire family. The retail operations represent a single operating segment based on the way the Company manages its business. Operating decisions and resource allocation decisions are made at the Company level in order to maintain a consistent retail store presentation. The Company’s retail stores sell similar products, use similar processes to sell those products, and sell their products to similar classes of customers. All sales and assets are located within the United States. The Company’s merchandise assortment by classification as a percentage of net sales for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 is as follows: | ||||||||
| Percentage of Net Sales | ||||||||
| 2013 | 2012 | 2011 | ||||||
| Children’s | 27% | 27% | 28% | |||||
| Ladies’ | 26% | 29% | 32% | |||||
| Accessories | 26% | 23% | 18% | |||||
| Men’s | 18% | 18% | 19% | |||||
| Home décor | 3% | 3% | 3% | |||||

The first step is to identify if a potential impairment exists by comparing the Company’s fair value with its carrying amount, including goodwill. In the Company’s case, there is only one reporting unit, therefore, fair value and carrying value used in the test are at the consolidated level. If fair value exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to have a potential impairment and the second step of the impairment test is not necessary. | |
| The goodwill impairment testing done as of January 28, 2012 indicated that the Company’s carrying value exceeded fair value, requiring that the second step of the test be performed. The second step compares the carrying value of goodwill to an implied fair value of goodwill, which is derived by performing a hypothetical purchase price allocation for the Company as of year-end, allocating the Company’s estimated fair value to its assets and liabilities. The residual amount, if any, from performing this allocation represents the implied fair value of goodwill, and if such value is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment charge is recorded for the difference. The results of the second step of the test indicated that goodwill, totaling $1.4 million, should be fully impaired, resulting in a non-cash charge to asset impairment expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. | |
| Long-Lived Assets | |
| Non-cash impairment expense related primarily to leasehold improvements and fixtures and equipment at underperforming stores totaled $1.5 million, $1.2 million and $5.1 million in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. |

| (4) Closure and Sale of Distribution Center | |
| The Company closed its distribution center in Savannah, Georgia in June 2011. A real estate broker was engaged to sell the Savannah land and building; accordingly, the net book value of the related assets was classified as assets held for sale in the February 2, 2013 consolidated balance sheet. The closure of the distribution center required the Company to test the asset for potential impairment. The Company evaluated the fair value of the distribution center, including estimates by real estate brokers, and determined that estimated fair value was in excess of the $1.4 million net book value, therefore, no impairment charge was necessary. | |
| In connection with the closure of the distribution center, the Company incurred $0.6 million of expenses in fiscal 2011, and such amount was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses within the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended January 28, 2012. | |
| In August 2013, the Company sold the distribution center for $2.9 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $1.5 million. |

| Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market at the measurement date. Fair value is established according to a hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below: | ||||||||||||||
| Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. | ||||||||||||||
| Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data. | ||||||||||||||
| Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. Level 3 inputs are given the lowest priority in the fair value hierarchy. | ||||||||||||||

| On October 27, 2011, the Company entered into a five-year, $50 million credit facility with Bank of America to replace its prior $20 million credit facility. The facility includes a $25 million uncommitted “accordion” feature that under certain circumstances could allow the Company to increase the size of the facility to $75 million. Borrowings, if any, under the facility will bear interest (a) for LIBOR Rate Loans, at LIBOR plus 1.5%, or (b) for Base Rate Loans, at a rate equal to the highest of (i) the prime rate plus 0.5%, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.0%, or (iii) LIBOR plus 1.5%. The facility is secured by the Company’s inventory, accounts receivable and related assets, but not its real estate, fixtures and equipment, and it contains one financial covenant, a fixed charge coverage ratio, which is applicable and tested only in certain circumstances. The facility has an unused commitment fee of 0.25% and permits the payment of cash dividends subject to certain limitations, including a requirement that there were no borrowings outstanding in the 30 days prior to the dividend payment and no borrowings are expected in the 30 days subsequent to the payment. The Company has had no borrowings under either the existing or prior facility. |

| The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal and state jurisdictions where it does business and is subject to examinations by the IRS and other taxing authorities. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to fiscal 2010. The Company reviews and assesses uncertain tax positions, if any, with recognition and measurement of tax benefit based on a “more-likely-than-not” standard with respect to the ultimate outcome, regardless of whether this assessment is favorable or unfavorable. As of February 1, 2014, there were no benefits taken on the Company’s income tax returns that do not qualify for financial statement recognition. If a tax position does not meet the minimum statutory threshold to avoid payment of penalties and interest, a company is required to recognize an expense for the amount of the interest and penalty in the period in which the company claims or expects to claim the position on its tax return. For financial statement purposes, companies are allowed to elect whether to classify such charges as either income tax expense or another expense classification. Should such expense be incurred in the future, the Company will classify such interest as a component of interest expense and penalties as a component of income tax expense. | |||||||||||
| In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible and income tax credits may be utilized, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences with the exception of certain tax credits available in one state. Losses incurred in 2011 caused the Company to conclude that its ability to utilize a portion of such state’s tax credits was no longer more likely than not, necessitating a charge to income tax expense and a reduction in deferred tax assets totaling $0.8 million in connection with the establishment of a valuation allowance. In 2013, the Company increased the valuation allowance by $0.4 million when it concluded that its ability to utilize most of the remaining portion of such credits was no longer more likely than not. | |||||||||||
| The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 included the recognition of benefits arising from various federal and state tax credits. Under current IRS and state income tax regulations, these credits may be carried back for two years or carried forward for periods up to 20 years. The income tax benefit in fiscal 2013 included $1.0 million related to such credits, partially offset by the aforementioned $0.4 million increase in a valuation allowance. The income tax benefit in fiscal 2012 included $0.8 million related to such credits. The income tax benefit in fiscal 2011 included $1.8 million related to such credits, partially offset by the aforementioned $0.8 million establishment of a valuation allowance. | |||||||||||
| A number of U.S. income tax provisions expired on December 31, 2013. Included in the expiring tax provisions are certain employment tax credits, including the work opportunity tax credit, as well as provisions which allow for accelerated depreciation on qualified leasehold improvements and other qualified property. If not renewed, the expiration of certain employment credits will adversely impact the Company’s income tax expense beginning in the first quarter of 2014. | |||||||||||

| On April 6, 2012, the Company adopted the Citi Trends, Inc. 2012 Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”), which became effective upon approval by the Company’s stockholders on May 23, 2012. The 2012 Plan is a successor plan to the 2005 Citi Trends, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), which became effective upon the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering in May 2005. The 2005 Plan superseded and replaced the 1999 Allied Fashion Stock Option Plan (the “1999 Plan”). | ||||||||||||
| The 1999 Plan provided for the grant of incentive and nonqualified options to key employees and directors, while the 2005 Plan provided for the grant of incentive and nonqualified options, nonvested restricted stock and other forms of stock-based compensation to key employees and directors. The 2012 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified options, nonvested restricted stock and other forms of stock-based and cash-based compensation to key employees and directors. | ||||||||||||
| Shares of time-based nonvested restricted stock granted to employees vest in either equal installments over three or four years from the date of grant, or over three years at 25% on the first and second anniversaries and 50% on the third anniversary. Shares issued to directors vest one or two years from the date of grant. The Company records compensation expense for grants of time-based nonvested restricted stock on a straight line basis over the requisite service period of the stock recipients which is equal to the vesting period of the stock. Total compensation cost for such stock is calculated based on the closing market price on the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares granted. Using an estimated forfeiture rate equal to 12.8%, the Company expects to recognize $4.5 million in future compensation expense from the grants of time-based restricted stock over the requisite service period of up to four years. Compensation costs for grants of performance-based restricted stock units (RSU’s) are recorded in full on the date of grant using a lattice model to estimate fair market value. During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, compensation expense arising from time-based nonvested restricted stock grants and performance-based RSU’s totaled $3.4 million, $2.7 million and $2.6 million, respectively. | ||||||||||||

| In March 2013, the Company granted 38,889 RSU’s to one employee. The RSU’s have performance vesting criteria which are based upon the closing price of the Company’s stock achieving certain thresholds. The shares vest 25% upon achieving a closing stock price for a 20 consecutive day period of $11; $13; $16; and $20, respectively. The award expires 3 years from the date of grant. On the date of grant, the Company expensed $219,000 which was the estimated fair market value. The first three thresholds were achieved in 2013, resulting in the vesting of 29,166 shares during the year and an unvested balance of 9,723 shares as of February 1, 2014. | ||||||||||||
| Cash flows resulting from tax deductions in excess of the cumulative compensation cost recognized for options exercised and vesting of restricted shares (“excess tax benefits”) are classified as financing cash flows. Decrease in such excess tax benefits was $0.3 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. | ||||||||||||
| Compensation expense associated with stock options is based on an estimate of the fair value of each option award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. Expected volatility is based on estimated future volatility of the Company’s common stock price. No compensation expense for stock options was recorded during fiscal 2013, 2012 or 2011 as the last grant vested prior to the beginning of fiscal 2011. | ||||||||||||
| As of February 1, 2014, there remained outstanding 40,700 options, issued under the 2005 Plan. No options have been issued under the 2012 Plan. The Board of Directors determined the exercise prices of the option grants. Option grants generally vested in equal installments over four years from the date of grant for employees and over one to three years for directors and were generally exercisable up to ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price of stock options may be satisfied through net share settlements.

| On August 12, 2011, the Company received a letter of determination from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”) commencing a conciliation process regarding alleged discrimination against males by the Company in its hiring and promotion practices during the years 2004 through 2006. In its letter of determination, the EEOC sought recovery in the amount of $0.2 million on behalf of a former male employee and in the additional amount of $3.8 million in a settlement fund for a class of unidentified males who sought or considered seeking manager or assistant manager positions in the Company’s stores. The EEOC also seeks certain undertakings by the Company with regard to its employment policies and procedures and a reporting obligation to the EEOC with respect to the Company’s compliance with these undertakings. | |||||
| The Company has not received full documentation or information from the EEOC in support of its letter of determination, but has undertaken its own internal analysis of the EEOC’s claims and defenses to such claims and has had discussions with the EEOC in that regard. Following discussions with the EEOC regarding possible settlement, the EEOC proposed a settlement amount to be paid by the Company of $2.5 million, with any unclaimed funds following efforts to identify and compensate claimants to be directed to one or more charities. In the interest of reaching a satisfactory conciliation agreement with the EEOC, the Company proposed a total economic settlement offer of $1.0 million to cover all claims and the expenses of administering and complying with the settlement (excluding professional fees), with no reversion of unclaimed funds back to the Company. The Company continues to await the EEOC’s response to the Company’s most recent proposal regarding settlement. The Company is also evaluating other aspects of the conciliation process established by the EEOC. | |||||
| On February 24, 2012, a suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama, Middle Division, by certain individuals as a purported collective action on behalf of current and former employees of the Company holding store managerial positions. The plaintiffs allege that store managers have been improperly classified as exempt from the obligation to pay overtime in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act. The Company is vigorously defending the claims that have been asserted in this lawsuit. The trial court has conditionally certified a class of store managers and ruled that store managers who signed arbitration agreements are not subject to arbitration. The trial court’s ruling regarding arbitration was affirmed on appeal by a panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. Also, notwithstanding the initial actions by the trial court, the conditional class may be subject to decertification at the close of discovery. Because no discovery has been conducted to date, the Company is unable to determine the probability of any particular outcome and it is not reasonably possible to estimate a range of loss with respect to this matter. Accordingly, no accrual for costs has been recorded, and the potential impact of this matter on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows cannot be determined at this time. | |||||
| The Company from time to time is also involved in various other legal proceedings incidental to the conduct of its business, including claims by customers, employees or former employees. Once it becomes probable that the Company will incur costs in connection with a legal proceeding and such costs can be reasonably estimated, it establishes appropriate reserves. While legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties and the outcome of any such matter is not predictable, the Company is not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against it that it expects to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. | |||||

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | ' | |||||||
| Principles of Consolidation | ' | |||||||
| (a) Principles of Consolidation | ||||||||
| The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. | ||||||||
| Fiscal Year | ' | |||||||
| (b) Fiscal Year | ||||||||
| The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31 of each year. The years ended February 1, 2014, February 2, 2013, and January 28, 2012 are referred to as fiscal 2013, fiscal 2012, and fiscal 2011, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Fiscal year 2012 is comprised of 53 weeks, while fiscal years 2013 and 2011 are each comprised of 52 weeks. | ||||||||
| Cash and Cash Equivalents/Concentration of Credit Risk | ' | |||||||
| (c) Cash and Cash Equivalents/Concentration of Credit Risk | ||||||||
| For purposes of the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be high credit quality banks and institutional money market funds. The Company maintains cash accounts that exceed federally insured limits. | ||||||||
| Inventory | ' | |||||||
| (d) Inventory | ||||||||
| Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market as determined by the retail inventory method for store inventory and the average cost method for distribution center inventory. Under the retail inventory method, the cost of inventory is determined by calculating a cost-to-retail ratio and applying it to the retail value of inventory. Merchandise markdowns are reflected in the inventory valuation when the retail price of an item is lowered in the stores. Inventory is recorded net of an allowance for shrinkage based on the most recent physical inventory counts. | ||||||||
| Property and Equipment, net | ' | |||||||
| (e) Property and Equipment, net | ||||||||
| Property and equipment, net are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful lives (primarily three to five years for computer equipment and furniture, fixtures and equipment, five years for leasehold improvements, seven years for major purchased software systems, and fifteen to twenty years for buildings and building improvements) of the related assets or the relevant lease term. | ||||||||
| Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | ' | |||||||
| (f) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | ||||||||
| If facts and circumstances indicate that a long-lived asset may be impaired, the carrying value is reviewed. If this review indicates that the carrying value of the asset will not be recovered as determined based on projected undiscounted cash flows related to the asset over its remaining life, the carrying value of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. | ||||||||
| Insurance Liabilities | ' | |||||||
| (g) Insurance Liabilities | ||||||||
| The Company is largely self-insured for workers’ compensation costs and employee medical claims. The Company’s self-insured retention or deductible, as applicable, for each claim involving workers’ compensation and employee medical is limited to $250,000 and $65,000, respectively. Self-insurance liabilities are based on the total estimated costs of claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not reported, less amounts paid against such claims. Current and historical claims data, together with information from actuarial studies, are used in developing the estimates. The insurance liabilities that are recorded are primarily influenced by the frequency and severity of claims and the Company’s growth. If the underlying facts and circumstances related to the claims change, then the Company may be required to record more or less expense which could be material in relation to results of operations. | ||||||||
| Stock-Based Compensation | ' | |||||||
| (h) Stock-Based Compensation | ||||||||
| The Company recognizes compensation expense associated with all nonvested restricted stock and stock options based on an estimate of the grant-date fair value of each equity award. Grants of time-based nonvested restricted stock are valued based on the closing stock price on the grant date, while grants of performance-based restricted stock units are valued at an estimate of fair market value using a lattice model. The fair values of options issued are estimated at each grant date using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. See Note 10 for additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation plans. | ||||||||
| Revenue Recognition | ' | |||||||
| (i) Revenue Recognition | ||||||||
| Revenue from retail sales net of sales taxes is recognized at the time the customer takes possession of and pays for merchandise, less an allowance for returns. The Company allows customers to return merchandise for up to thirty days after the date of sale and the Company reduces revenues for each fiscal year using a combination of actual and estimated return information for the returns in the thirty days after the year ends. The provision for returns was $0.1 million as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013. Revenue from layaway sales is recognized when the customer has paid for and received the merchandise. If the merchandise is not fully paid for within sixty days, the customer is given a store credit for merchandise payments made, less a re-stocking and layaway service fee. Such fees, which are non-refundable, are recognized in revenue when collected. The introduction of gift cards to all stores was completed in 2010. Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are deferred until the customers use the cards to purchase merchandise. No amounts have yet been amortized into income for gift cards that were sold and are not expected to be redeemed (“breakage”) due to the lack of time that has lapsed since cards began being sold under the program and the relative immateriality of the total gift card liability ($0.6 million and $0.5 million as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, respectively). All sales are from cash, check or major credit card company transactions. The Company does not offer company-sponsored customer credit accounts. | ||||||||
| Cost of Sales | ' | |||||||
| (j) Cost of Sales | ||||||||
| Cost of sales includes the cost of inventory sold during the period and transportation costs, including inbound freight related to inventory sold and freight from the distribution centers to the stores, net of discounts and allowances. Distribution center costs, store occupancy expenses and advertising expenses are not considered components of cost of sales and are included as part of selling, general and administrative expenses. Depreciation is also not considered a component of cost of sales and is included as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations. Distribution center costs (exclusive of depreciation) for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $13.2 million, $13.4 million and $12.3 million, respectively. | ||||||||
| Earnings per Share | ' | |||||||
| (k) Earnings per Share | ||||||||
| Basic earnings per common share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the additional dilution for all potentially dilutive securities, such as nonvested restricted stock and stock options. During loss periods, diluted loss per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding because the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. | ||||||||
| The following table provides a reconciliation of the number of average common shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per share to the number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding used in calculating diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011: | ||||||||
| 2013 | 2012 | 2011 | ||||||
| Average number of common shares outstanding | 14,798,154 | 14,671,638 | 14,589,247 | |||||
| Incremental shares from assumed exercises of stock options | 1,187 | — | — | |||||
| Incremental shares from assumed vesting of nonvested restricted stock | 14,103 | — | — | |||||
| Average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding | 14,813,444 | 14,671,638 | 14,589,247 | |||||
| The dilutive effect of stock-based compensation arrangements is accounted for using the treasury stock method. This method assumes that the proceeds the Company receives from the exercise of stock options are used to repurchase common shares in the market. The Company includes as assumed proceeds the amount of compensation cost attributed to future services and not yet recognized, and the amount of tax benefits, if any, that would be credited to additional paid-in capital assuming exercise of outstanding options and vesting of nonvested restricted stock. For fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, there were 41,000, 47,000, and 53,000 options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because of antidilution. For fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, there were 607,000, 402,000 and 361,000 shares of nonvested restricted stock, respectively, excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because of antidilution. | ||||||||
| Advertising | ' | |||||||
| (l) Advertising | ||||||||
| The Company expenses advertising as incurred. Advertising expense for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $2.4 million, $3.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively. | ||||||||
| Operating Leases | ' | |||||||
| (m) Operating Leases | ||||||||
| The Company leases all of its store properties and accounts for the leases as operating leases. Many lease agreements contain tenant improvement allowances, rent holidays, rent escalation clauses and/or contingent rent provisions. For purposes of recognizing incentives and minimum rent expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases, the Company uses the date of initial possession to begin amortization, which is generally when the Company enters the space and begins to make improvements in preparation of intended use. | ||||||||
| For scheduled rent escalation clauses during the lease terms or for rental payments commencing “rent holidays” at a date other than the date of initial occupancy, the Company records minimum rent expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Tenant improvement allowances are included in accrued expenses (current portion) and other long-term liabilities (noncurrent portion) and are amortized over the lease term. Changes in the balances of tenant improvement allowances are included as a component of operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. | ||||||||
| Certain leases provide for contingent rents that are not measurable at inception. These contingent rents are primarily based on a percentage of net sales that are in excess of a predetermined level. These amounts are excluded from minimum rent and are included in the determination of total rent expense when it is probable that the expense has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. | ||||||||
| The Company is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability’s fair value can be reasonably estimated. As of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, the Company included a liability of $0.7 million in other long-term liabilities, representing estimated expenses that would be incurred upon the termination of the Company’s operating leases. | ||||||||
| Store Opening and Closing Costs | ' | |||||||
| (n) Store Opening and Closing Costs | ||||||||
| New and relocated store opening period costs are charged directly to expense when incurred. When the Company decides to close or relocate a store, the Company records an expense for the present value of expected future rent payments, net of sublease income, if any, in the period that a store closes or relocates. All store opening and closing costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. | ||||||||
| Income Taxes | ' | |||||||
| (o) Income Taxes | ||||||||
| Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. | ||||||||
| Use of Estimates | ' | |||||||
| (p) Use of Estimates | ||||||||
| The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and use assumptions 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||||||||
| The most significant estimates made by management include those used in the valuation of inventory, property and equipment, self-insurance liabilities, leases and income taxes. Management periodically evaluates estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for continued reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based on such periodic evaluations. | ||||||||
| Business Reporting Segments | ' | |||||||
| (q) Business Reporting Segments | ||||||||
| The Company is a value-priced retailer of urban fashion apparel and accessories for the entire family. The retail operations represent a single operating segment based on the way the Company manages its business. Operating decisions and resource allocation decisions are made at the Company level in order to maintain a consistent retail store presentation. The Company’s retail stores sell similar products, use similar processes to sell those products, and sell their products to similar classes of customers. All sales and assets are located within the United States. The Company’s merchandise assortment by classification as a percentage of net sales for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 is as follows: | ||||||||
