Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes contained in this report are unaudited but reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods of the fiscal year ending February 3, 2018 ("Fiscal 2018") and of the fiscal year ended January 28, 2017 ("Fiscal 2017").

Principles of Consolidation All subsidiaries are consolidated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company had total available cash and cash equivalents of $43.4 million , $48.3 million and $42.8 million as of April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively, of which approximately $6.8 million , $22.9 million and $1.2 million was held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries as of April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively. The Company's strategic plan does not require the repatriation of foreign cash in order to fund its operations in the U.S., and it is the Company's current intention to indefinitely reinvest its foreign cash and cash equivalents outside of the U.S. If the Company were to repatriate foreign cash to the U.S., it would be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes in accordance with applicable U.S. tax rules and regulations as a result of the repatriation. There were no cash equivalents included in cash and cash equivalents at April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016. Cash equivalents are highly-liquid financial instruments having an original maturity of three months or less. At April 29, 2017, substantially all of the Company’s domestic cash was invested in deposit accounts at FDIC-insured banks. The majority of payments due from banks for domestic customer credit card transactions process within 24 - 48 hours and are accordingly classified as cash and cash equivalents in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, outstanding checks drawn on zero-balance accounts at certain domestic banks exceeded book cash balances at those banks by approximately $39.7 million , $36.7 million and $32.7 million , respectively. These amounts are included in accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Concentration of Credit Risk and Allowances on Accounts Receivable The Company’s footwear wholesale businesses sell primarily to independent retailers and department stores across the United States. Receivables arising from these sales are not collateralized. Customer credit risk is affected by conditions or occurrences within the economy and the retail industry as well as by customer specific factors. In the footwear wholesale businesses, two customers each accounted for 12% and one customer accounted for 7% of the Company’s total trade receivables balance, while no other customer accounted for more than 6% of the Company’s total trade receivables balance as of April 29, 2017. Leases The Company occasionally receives reimbursements from landlords to be used towards construction of the store the Company intends to lease. Leasehold improvements are recorded at their gross costs including items reimbursed by landlords. The reimbursements are amortized as a reduction of rent expense over the initial lease term. Tenant allowances of $25.8 million , $25.4 million and $25.5 million at April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively, and deferred Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued rent of $53.3 million , $51.9 million and $49.4 million , each at April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively, are included in deferred rent and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include asset retirement obligations related to leases of $10.6 million , $10.3 million and $11.0 million as of April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at April 29, 2017 and January 28, 2017 are as follows: Fair Values In thousands April 29, 2017 January 28, 2017 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value U.S. Credit Facility Borrowings $ 108,973 $ 109,081 $ 49,879 $ 50,396 UK Term Loans 11,643 11,968 19,230 19,541 UK Revolver Borrowings 17,391 17,644 13,796 13,956 Debt fair values were estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of financial instruments and would be classified in Level 2 as defined in Note 5. Carrying amounts reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash, cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Selling and Administrative Expenses Selling and administrative expenses include all operating costs of the Company excluding (i) those related to the transportation of products from the supplier to the warehouse, (ii) for its retail operations, those related to the transportation of products from the warehouse to the store and (iii) costs of its distribution facilities which are allocated to its retail operations. Wholesale costs of distribution are included in selling and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the amount of $1.6 million for each of the first quarters of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017. Gift Cards Gift card breakage is recognized in revenues each period for which financial statements are updated. Gift card breakage recognized as revenue was $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the first quarters of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, respectively. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include an accrued liability for gift cards of $16.2 million , $17.7 million and $15.8 million at April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively. Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued Buying, Merchandising and Occupancy Costs The Company records buying, merchandising and occupancy costs in selling and administrative expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Because the Company does not include these costs in cost of sales, the Company’s gross margin may not be comparable to other retailers that include these costs in the calculation of gross margin. Retail store occupancy costs recorded in selling and administrative expense were $113.3 million and $111.2 million for the first quarters of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, respectively. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are predominantly expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $19.6 million and $16.7 million for the first quarters of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, respectively. Direct response advertising costs for catalogs are capitalized in accordance with the Other Assets and Deferred Costs Topic for Capitalized Advertising Costs of the Codification. Such costs are amortized over the estimated future period as revenues are realized from such advertising, not to exceed six months. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include prepaid assets for direct response advertising costs of $1.1 million , $1.2 million and $1.6 million at April 29, 2017, January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively. Cooperative Advertising Cooperative advertising costs recognized in selling and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations were $1.2 million and $1.0 million for the first quarters of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, respectively. During the first three months of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, the Company’s cooperative advertising reimbursements paid did not exceed the fair value of the benefits received under those agreements. Vendor Allowances Vendor reimbursements of cooperative advertising costs recognized as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses were $2.7 million and $1.3 million for the first quarters of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, respectively. During the first three months of Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, the Company’s cooperative advertising reimbursements received were not in excess of the costs incurred. Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of the Company's foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The translation of the applicable foreign currency into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense accounts are translated at monthly average exchange rates. The unearned gains and losses resulting from such translation are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders' equity. Gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are reported as an item of income and resulted in a net loss of $0.3 million for the first quarter Fiscal 2018 and a net gain of $(1.0) million for the first quarter of Fiscal 2017. Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued Other Comprehensive Income The Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification requires, among other things, the Company’s pension liability adjustment, postretirement liability adjustment and foreign currency translation adjustments to be included in other comprehensive income net of tax. Accumulated other comprehensive loss at April 29, 2017 consisted of $9.3 million of cumulative pension liability adjustments, net of tax, a cumulative post-retirement liability adjustment of $1.5 million , net of tax, and a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment of $38.1 million . The following table summarizes the components of accumulated other comprehensive loss for the nine months ended April 29, 2017: Foreign Currency Translation Unrecognized Pension/Postretirement Benefit Costs Total Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (In thousands) Balance January 28, 2017 $ (40,329 ) $ (10,963 ) $ (51,292 ) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications: Foreign currency translation adjustment 3,246 — 3,246 Loss on intra-entity foreign currency transactions (long-term investment nature) (1,056 ) — (1,056 ) Amounts reclassified from AOCI: Amortization of net actuarial loss (1) — 254 254 Income tax expense — 99 99 Current period other comprehensive income, net of tax 2,190 155 2,345 Balance April 29, 2017 $ (38,139 ) $ (10,808 ) $ (48,947 ) (1) Amount is included in net periodic benefit cost, which is recorded in selling and administrative expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. New Accounting Pronouncements New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” ASU 2017-04 simplifies the measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step from the goodwill impairment test, which requires the comparison of the implied fair value of goodwill with the current carrying amount of goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in this guidance, an entity shall perform a goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount and an impairment charge is to be recorded for the amount, if any, in which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. This guidance should be applied prospectively and is effective for public business Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued entities that are United States Securities and Exchange Commission filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, and it did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2016-09”). The update addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based compensation transactions including: (a) income tax consequences when awards vest or are settled, (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, (c) a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis and (d) classification of excess tax impacts on the statement of cash flows. The inclusion of excess tax benefits and deficiencies as a component of the Company's income tax expense will increase volatility within its provision for income taxes as the amount of excess tax benefits or deficiencies from share-based compensation awards is dependent on the Company's stock price at the date the awards are exercised or settled which is primarily in the second quarter of each fiscal year. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 and there was no material impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures in the first quarter of Fiscal 2018. However, if the Company had adopted the standard in Fiscal 2017, reported earnings per share would have decreased $0.03 per share for Fiscal 2017. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes". ASU 2015-17 requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The Company adopted ASU 2015-17 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 under the retrospective approach and, as such, the Company reclassified $21.2 million and $28.6 million of deferred taxes from current to noncurrent on its Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 28, 2017 and April 30, 2016, respectively. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, "Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." ASU 2015-11 requires an entity that determines the cost of inventory by methods other than last-in, first-out and the retail inventory method to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 and it did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715)". The standard requires the sponsors of benefit plans to present service cost in the same line item or items as other current employee compensation costs, and present the remaining components of net benefit cost in one or more separate line items outside of income from operations, while also limiting the components of net benefit cost eligible to be capitalized to service cost. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. The Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued standard will require the Company to present the non-service pension costs as a component of expense below operating income. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases". The standard's core principle is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, which would be the beginning of our Fiscal 2020 or February 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures and is expecting a material impact because the Company is party to a significant number of lease contracts. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)". ASU 2014-09 amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous, industry-specific requirements and merges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. The amendment also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 was originally effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, however, in August 2015, the FASB deferred this ASU for one year, which would be the beginning of our Fiscal 2019 or February 2018. The amendment is to be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial adoption as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets on the balance sheet). Based on an evaluation of the standard as a whole, the Company has identified catalog costs, customer incentives and principal versus agent considerations as the areas that will most likely be affected by the new revenue recognition guidance. The Company continues to evaluate the adoption of this standard, including the transition method, and will provide updates later in Fiscal 2018 related to the expected impact of adopting this standard. |
