Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 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 financial statements include allowances for customer deductions, sales returns, sales discounts and credit losses, estimates of inventory net realizable value, the valuation of share-based compensation, the valuation of deferred taxes and the valuation of goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, along with the estimated useful lives assigned to these assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Seasonality The Company experiences certain effects of seasonality with respect to its business. The Company generally experiences greater sales during its third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during its first fiscal quarter. Inventories, net Inventories mainly consist of finished goods with the exception of raw materials and work in process inventory. The combined total of raw materials and work in process inventory recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets was $22 million and $27 million, respectively, as of September 26, 2020 and March 28, 2020. The net realizable value of the Company's inventory as of September 26, 2020 and March 28, 2020 includes the expected adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes the impact from temporary retail store closures, wholesale customer store closures, reductions in retail store traffic, a decline in international tourism and a decrease in consumer consumption. 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 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. 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. The 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 affects 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. 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 loss (gain) in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company classifies cash flows relating to its forward foreign currency exchange contracts related to the purchase of inventory consistently with the classification of the hedged item, within cash flows from operating 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 transaction they are intended to hedge. 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 its U.S. Dollars and these foreign currencies. The Company has elected the spot method of designating these contracts under ASU 2017-12 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 (loss) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest accruals and coupon payments are recognized directly in interest expense in the Company’s statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). 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 (loss) and are reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. Leases On March 31, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset on the balance sheet for all leases, except certain short-term leases. The Company adopted the new standard recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption without restating the comparative prior year periods. 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 July 2024. The Company acts as sublessor in certain leasing arrangements, primarily related to closed stores under its restructuring activities, as discussed in Note 8. 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, generally for the same period as the initial term of the lease. 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 location 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 or material restrictions or covenants. The following table presents the Company’s supplemental cash flow information related to leases (in millions): Six Months Ended Six Months Ended September 26, 2020 September 28, 2019 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows used in operating leases $ 191 (1) $ 244 (1) Operating cash flows used in operating leases for the six months ended September 26, 2020 exclude $60 million of rent payments that have been deferred due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recorded sublease income of $1 million and $3 million, respectively, and $2 million and $3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019, within selling, general, and administrative expenses. During the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recorded $9 million and $24 million, respectively, of rent concessions negotiated in connection with the impact of COVID-19 as if it were contemplated as part of the existing contract, and these concessions are recorded as a reduction to variable lease expense within selling, general and administrative expenses. Net Income (Loss) per Share The Company’s basic net income (loss) per ordinary share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) 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 as 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. The components of the calculation of basic net income (loss) per ordinary share and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share are as follows (in millions, except share and per share data): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended September 26, September 28, September 26, September 28, Numerator: Net income (loss) attributable to Capri $ 122 $ 73 $ (58) $ 118 Denominator: Basic weighted average shares 150,492,275 151,602,502 150,024,293 151,326,037 Weighted average dilutive share equivalents: Share options and restricted shares/units, and performance restricted share units 1,184,967 973,781 — 1,129,181 Diluted weighted average shares 151,677,242 152,576,283 150,024,293 152,455,218 Basic net income (loss) per share (1) $ 0.81 $ 0.48 $ (0.39) $ 0.78 Diluted net income (loss) per share (1) $ 0.81 $ 0.47 $ (0.39) $ 0.77 (1) Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share are calculated using unrounded numbers. During the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, share equivalents of 3,961,838 shares and 4,675,372 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the above calculations due to their anti-dilutive effect. Share equivalents of 5,822,186 shares and 4,098,382 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the above calculations for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019. Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to Capri for the six months ended September 26, 2020 excluded all potentially dilutive securities because there was a net loss attributable to Capri for the period and, as such, the inclusion of these securities would have been anti-dilutive. See Note 2 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020 for a complete disclosure of the Company’s significant accounting policies. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments On March 29, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which amends the guidance on measuring credit losses for certain financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade receivables. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has subsequently issued several updates to the standard, providing additional guidance on certain topics covered by the standard. This update requires entities to recognize an allowance for credit losses using a forward-looking expected loss impairment model, taking into consideration historical experience, current conditions and supportable forecasts that impact collectibility. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Implementation Costs Associated with Cloud Computing Arrangements On March 29, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract" ("ASU 2018-15"), which provides guidance related to the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows based on current information. |
