Nature of Operations and Acquisition of Claire's Stores, Inc.	12 Months Ended
	Feb. 01, 2014
Nature of Operations and Acquisition of Claire's Stores, Inc.	'
	1	NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ACQUISITION OF CLAIRE’S STORES, INC.
	Nature of Operations - Claire’s Stores, Inc., a Florida corporation, and subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”), is a leading retailer of value-priced fashion accessories targeted towards young women, teens, tweens and kids. The Company is organized into two segments: North America and Europe. The Company has company-operated stores throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, the U.S. Virgin Islands and China (North America segment) and the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy and Luxembourg (Europe segment). In January 2014, we made a decision to close our China stores, and are currently in the process of closing our 17 company-operated stores in that country.
	Acquisition of Claire’s Stores, Inc. - In May 2007, the Company was acquired by investment funds affiliated with, and co-investment vehicles managed by, Apollo Management VI, L.P. (“Apollo Management,” and such funds and co-investment vehicles, the “Apollo Funds”), and Claire’s Stores, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Claire’s Inc. (the “Acquisition”).
	The purchase of the Company and the payment of the related fees and expenses were financed through the Company’s borrowings under a bank credit facility (the “Former Credit Facility”), the Company’s issuance of senior and senior subordinated notes (the “Merger Notes”), equity contributions by the Apollo Funds and cash on hand at the Company. At the time of the Acquisition, the Company did not have any material indebtedness.
	The closing of the Acquisition occurred simultaneously with:
		•	the closing of the Company’s Former Credit Facility, consisting of a senior secured term loan facility (the “Former Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility (the “Former Revolver”) of $1.65 billion;
		•	the closing of the Company’s Merger Notes offering in the aggregate principal amount of $935.0 million; and
		•	the equity investment by the Apollo Funds, collectively, of approximately $595.7 million.
	The aforementioned transactions, including the Acquisition, the incurrence of indebtedness pursuant to the Former Credit Facility and the Merger Notes and payment of costs related to these transactions, are collectively referred to as the “Transactions.”
	Claire’s Inc. is an entity that was formed in connection with the Transactions and prior to the Merger had no assets or liabilities other than the shares of Bauble Acquisition Sub, Inc. and its rights and obligations under and in connection with the merger agreement. As a result of the Merger, all of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock is owned by Claire’s Inc.
	The acquisition of Claire’s Stores, Inc. was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities based on the estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	12 Months Ended
	Feb. 01, 2014
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	'
	2	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	Principles of Consolidation - The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	Fiscal Year - The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. The fiscal years ended February 1, 2014 (“Fiscal 2013”) and January 28, 2012 (“Fiscal 2011”) consisted of 52 weeks, respectively. The fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 (“Fiscal 2012”) consisted of 53 weeks.
	Use of Estimates - The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the value of inventories, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, legal contingencies and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, stock-based compensation, derivative and hedging activities, residual values and other items. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Illiquidity in credit markets, volatility in each of the equity, foreign currency, and energy markets and declines in consumer spending have combined to increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates will be reflected in the financial statements in those future periods when the changes occur.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. As of February 1, 2014, all cash equivalents were maintained in one money market fund that was invested exclusively in U.S. Treasury securities.
	Inventories - Merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out basis using the retail method for North America and average cost method, at an individual item level, for Europe.
	Prepaid Expenses – Prepaid expenses as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
			February 1,		February 2,
			2014		2013
	Prepaid rent and occupancy		$	17,071	$	17,853
	Prepaid insurance			438		636
	Other			1,962		1,212
	Total prepaid expenses		$	19,471	$	19,701
	Other Current Assets - Other current assets as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
			February 1,		February 2,
			2014		2013
	Credit card receivables		$	7,064	$	6,968
	Franchise receivables			3,708		4,367
	Store supplies			5,976		7,158
	Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance			4,600		6,606
	Income taxes receivable			4		37
	Other			4,953		4,485
	Total other current assets		$	26,305	$	29,621
	Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the furniture, fixtures, and equipment, which range from five to ten years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on the straight-line method based upon the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the terms of the respective leases. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to earnings while expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. Upon the disposition of property and equipment, the accumulated depreciation is deducted from the original cost and any gain or loss is reflected in current earnings.
	Capital Leases - Leased property meeting certain capital lease criteria is capitalized as an asset and the present value of the related lease payments is recorded as a liability. Amortization of capitalized leased assets is recorded using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the leased asset or the initial lease term and is included in “Depreciation and amortization” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Interest expense is recognized on the outstanding capital lease obligation using the effective interest method and is recorded in “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). On February 19, 2010, the Company sold its North America distribution center/office building (the “Property”) to a third party. The Company received net proceeds of $16.8 million from the sale of the Property. Contemporaneously with the sale of the Property, the Company entered into a lease agreement, dated February 19, 2010. The lease agreement provides for (1) an initial expiration date of February 28, 2030 with two (2) five (5) year renewal periods, each at the option of the Company and (2) basic rent of $2.1 million per annum (subject to annual increases). This transaction is accounted for as a capital lease. The Company has a $1.1 million letter of credit to secure lease payments for the Property.
	Goodwill - As discussed in Note 1 – Nature of Operations and Acquisition of Claire’s Stores, Inc. above, the Company accounted for the acquisition of Claire’s Stores, Inc. as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. At the date of acquisition, the Company allocated the purchase price to assets and liabilities based on estimated fair market values and the remaining $1.8 billion excess of cost over amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
	The Company performs a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated, at the Company’s option, by first performing a qualitative assessment for any reporting unit for any period or by bypassing the qualitative assessment and proceeding directly to the first step of our two-step goodwill impairment test. If the Company determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value amount, then performing the two-step impairment test would be unnecessary. The first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying value. If a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the implied fair value and carrying value of that reporting unit’s goodwill. To the extent that a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized. See Note 3 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
	Intangible Assets – Intangible assets include tradenames, franchise agreements, lease rights, territory rights and leases that existed at the date of acquisition with terms that were favorable to market at that date. The Company makes investments through its Europe subsidiaries in intangible assets upon the opening and acquisition of many of our store locations in Europe. These intangible assets are amortized to residual value on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the respective leases, not to exceed 25 years. The Company evaluates the residual value of its intangible assets periodically and adjusts the amortization period and/or residual value when the Company believes the residual value of the asset is not recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value more likely than not exceeds its fair value. Definite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Any impairment charges resulting from the application of these tests are immediately recorded as a charge to earnings in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 3 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
	Deferred Financing Costs – Costs incurred to issue debt are deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense over the estimated term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method. Amortization expense, recognized as a component of “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), were $8.2 million, $9.9 million and $13.1 million for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively.
	Other Assets - Other assets as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
			February 1,		February 2,
			2014		2013
	Initial direct costs of leases		$	17,568	$	17,811
	Prepaid lease payments			8,235		8,390
	Deferred tax assets, non-current			4,244		1,152
	Other			24,349		22,495
	Total other assets		$	54,396	$	49,848
	The initial direct costs of leases and prepaid lease payments are amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms, typically ranging from four to 15 years.
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net book value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the net book value of an asset or asset group to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If these comparisons indicate that the asset or asset group is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset or asset group. The fair value is estimated based on discounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group using a rate that reflects the operating segment’s average cost of capital. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and are no longer depreciated.
	Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities – Accrued expenses and other current liabilities as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
			February 1,		February 2,
			2014		2013
	Compensation and benefits		$	33,444	$	40,025
	Gift cards and certificates			23,125		22,695
	Sales and local taxes			17,441		15,708
	Store rent			2,460		3,012
	Other			18,257		18,089
	Total accrued expenses and other current liabilities		$	94,727	$	99,529
	Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes sales as the customer takes possession of the merchandise. The estimated liability for sales returns is based on the historical return levels, which is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.” The Company excludes sales taxes collected from customers from “Net sales” in its Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	The Company accounts for the goods it sells to third parties under franchising and licensing agreements within “Net sales” and “Cost of sales, occupancy and buying expenses” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The franchise fees the Company charges under the franchising agreements are reported in “Other income, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	Upon purchase of a gift card or gift certificate, a liability is established for the cash value. The liability is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.” Revenue from gift card and gift certificate sales is recognized at the time of redemption.
	Cost of Sales - Included within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) line item “Cost of sales, occupancy and buying expenses” is the cost of merchandise sold to our customers, inbound and outbound freight charges, purchasing costs, and inspection costs. Also included in this line item are the occupancy costs of the Company’s stores and the Company’s internal costs of facilitating the merchandise procurement process, both of which are treated as period costs. All merchandise purchased by the Company is shipped to one of its two distribution centers. As a result, the Company has no internal transfer costs. The cost of the Company’s distribution centers are included within the financial statement line item “Selling, general and administrative expenses,” and not in “Cost of sales, occupancy and buying expenses.” These distribution center costs were approximately $12.3 million, $11.7 million and $12.4 million, for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively. All depreciation and amortization expense is reported on a separate financial statement line item on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	Advertising Expenses - The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred, including in-store marketing, mall association dues and digital interactive media. Advertising expenses were $12.6 million, $11.9 million and $15.9 million for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively.
	Rent Expense - The Company recognizes rent expense for operating leases with periods of free rent (including construction periods), step rent provisions, and escalation clauses on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease term. From time to time, the Company may receive capital improvement funding from its lessors. These amounts are recorded as a “Deferred rent expense” and amortized over the remaining lease term as a reduction of rent expense. The Company considers lease renewals in the determination of the applicable lease term when such renewals are reasonably assured. The Company takes this factor into account when calculating minimum aggregate rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases set forth in Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies.
	Stock-Based Compensation - The Company issues stock options and other stock-based awards to executive management, key employees, and directors under its stock-based compensation plans.
	Time-vested stock awards, including stock options and restricted stock, are accounted for at fair value at date of grant. The stock-based compensation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period using the graded-vesting method for the entire award. Performance-based stock awards are accounted for at fair value at date of grant. The stock-based expense was based upon the number of shares expected to be issued when it became probable that performance targets required to receive the awards would be achieved.
	Buy one, get one (“BOGO”) options issued prior to May 2011 were immediately vested, exercisable upon issuance, and accounted for at fair value at date of grant. The compensation expense for these BOGOs was recognized over a four year period due to the terms of the option requiring forfeiture in certain cases including the grantee’s voluntary resignation from the Company’s employ prior to May 2011. BOGOs issued subsequent to May 2011 are accounted for at the fair value at date of grant and the compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period.
	Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which generally requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax laws or rates is recognized in income in the period the new legislation is enacted. Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the likelihood of realization, the Company considers estimates of future taxable income.
	The Company is subject to tax audits in numerous jurisdictions, including the United States, individual states and localities, and internationally. Tax audits by their very nature are often complex and can require several years to complete. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to challenges from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities regarding amounts of taxes due. These challenges may alter the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions, or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which clarifies the accounting for income taxes in the financial statements by prescribing a minimum probability recognition threshold and measurement process for recording uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This guidance requires that the Company determine whether a tax position is more likely than not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are at least more likely than not of being sustained upon audit, the Company recognizes the largest amount of the benefit that is more likely than not of being sustained. See Note 10 – Income Taxes for further information.
	Foreign Currency Translation - The financial statements of the Company’s foreign operations are translated into U.S. Dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at fiscal year-end exchange rates while income and expense accounts are translated at the average rates in effect during the year. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are accumulated as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, including intercompany transactions, except for intercompany loans of a long-term investment nature, are included the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). These foreign currency transaction losses (gains) were approximately $0.3 million, $(1.4) million and $0.9 million, for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively.
	Comprehensive Income (Loss) - Comprehensive income (loss) represents a measure of all changes in shareholder’s deficit except for changes resulting from transactions with shareholders in their capacity as shareholders. The Company’s total comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustments, gain (loss) on intra-entity foreign currency transactions, reclassification of foreign currency translation adjustments into net income (loss) and adjustments for derivative instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges. Amounts included in “Comprehensive income (loss)” are recorded net of income taxes.
	Derivative Financial Instruments – The Company recognizes the fair value of derivative financial instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses related to a hedge that result from changes in the fair value of the hedge are either recognized in income to offset the gain or loss on the hedged item, or deferred and reported as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently recognized in income when the hedged item affects net income (loss). The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a hedge is recognized in income immediately. The Company did not have any derivative instruments as of February 1, 2014 or February 2, 2013. See Note 5 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities for further information.
	Fair Value Measurements – ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Disclosures of the fair value of certain financial instruments are required, whether or not recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 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 at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. There is a three-level valuation hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.
Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company does not have any assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company’s former interest rate swap, which was previously measured at fair value on a recurring basis, was terminated on September 20, 2012.
Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company’s non-financial assets, which include goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived tangible assets, are not adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measures of non-financial assets are primarily used in the impairment analysis of these assets. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the non-financial asset be recorded at its fair value. The Company reviews goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or as circumstances indicate the possibility of impairment. The Company monitors the carrying value of definite-lived intangible assets and long-lived tangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate its carrying amount may not be recoverable. There was no impairment of the Company’s non-financial assets during Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011.
Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, current liabilities, and long-term debt. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and current liabilities approximate fair market value due to the relatively short maturity of these financial instruments.
The Company considers all investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalent instruments are valued using quoted market prices and consist of U.S. Treasury securities. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $2.36 billion at February 1, 2014, compared to a carrying value of $2.38 billion at that date. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $2.41 billion at February 2, 2013, compared to a carrying value of $2.37 billion at that date. For publicly-traded debt, the fair value (estimated market value) is based on quoted market prices in less active markets. For non-publicly traded debt, fair value is estimated based on quoted prices for similar instruments. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which clarifies guidance and eliminates diversity in practice on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This would be the case when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account instead of directly to income or expense in the same reporting period. The amendments are effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance in first quarter of Fiscal 2013 and it did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. If an entity can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the entity is not required to take further action. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2013 and it did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
There are no recently issued accounting standards that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Reclassifications – The Consolidated Financial Statements include certain reclassifications of prior period amounts in order to conform to current year presentation.

	Credit Facility
	The Former Credit Facility was with a syndication of lenders and consisted of a $1.45 billion senior secured Former Term Loan and a $200.0 million senior secured Former Revolver. At the consummation of the Merger, the Company drew the full amount of the Former Term Loan and was issued a $4.5 million letter of credit. The letter of credit was subsequently increased to $6.0 million and later reduced to $4.8 million. During Fiscal 2012, we issued $1,142.1 million of the 9.0% Senior Secured First Lien Notes that mature on March 15, 2019 (the “9.0% Senior Secured First Lien Notes”). We used the net proceeds together with cash on hand, to repay $1,154.3 million of indebtedness under the Former Term Loan.
	On September 20, 2012, the Company terminated the Former Credit Facility and entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among Claire’s Inc. (“Parent”), the Company, Credit Suisse AG, as Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders named therein (the “Credit Facility”), pursuant to which the Company replaced the $200.0 million senior secured Former Revolver maturing May 29, 2013 with a $115.0 million five-year senior secured revolving credit facility maturing in 2017.
	Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the higher of (1) the prime rate in effect on such day, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, or (b) a LIBOR rate with respect to any Eurodollar borrowing, determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits in the London Interbank Market for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, adjusted for certain additional costs, in each case plus an applicable margin of 4.50% for LIBOR rate loans and 3.50% for alternate base rate loans. The Company will also pay a facility fee of 0.50% per annum of the committed amount of the Credit Facility whether or not utilized.
	All obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by (i) Parent, prior to an initial public offering of the Company’s stock, and (ii) the Company’s existing and future direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.
	All obligations under the Credit Facility, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by a first priority lien on, (i) all of the Company’s capital stock, prior to an initial public offering of its stock, and (ii) substantially all of the Company’s material owned assets and the material owned assets of subsidiary guarantors, limited in the case of equity interests held by the Company or any subsidiary guarantor in a foreign subsidiary, to 100% of the non-voting equity interests and 65% of the voting equity interests of such foreign subsidiary held directly by the Company or a subsidiary guarantor. The liens securing the Credit Facility rank equally to the liens securing the 9.0% Senior Secured First Lien Notes (described below) and the 6.125% Senior Secured First Lien Notes (described below), and senior to those securing the Senior Secured Second Lien Notes (described below).
The Credit Facility contains customary provisions relating to mandatory prepayments, voluntary payments, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default; however, it does not contain any covenants that require the Company to maintain any particular financial ratio or other measure of financial performance except that, when the revolving loans and letters of credit outstanding exceed $15.0 million, the Company will be required to comply with a maximum Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio of 5.5 to 1.0 based upon the ratio of its net senior secured first lien debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended. As of February 1, 2014, our Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio was 5.0 to 1.0. In addition, under the Credit Facility, the Company must comply with this maximum Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio requirement, measured as of the most recent four consecutive quarter period for which financial statements have been (or were required to be) delivered to our lenders, at any time we request a borrowing that would result in such outstanding amount exceeding $15.0 million.
At February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Company must also pay customary letter of credit fees and agency fees. As of February 1, 2014, the Company had $6.3 million of letters of credit outstanding.
The Credit Facility also contains various covenants that limit our ability to engage in specified types of transactions. These covenants limit the Company’s Parent’s and the Company’s restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things:
	•		incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares;
	•		pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of our capital stock or make other restricted payments;
	•		make certain investments;
	•		sell certain assets;
	•		create liens;
	•		consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets; and
	•		enter into certain transactions with our affiliates.
A breach of any of these covenants could result in an event of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. Such actions by those lenders could cause cross defaults under the Company’s other indebtedness. If the Company were unable to repay those amounts, the lenders under the Credit Facility could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness.
10.50% Senior Subordinated Notes
In connection with the Transactions, the Company issued $335.0 million of 10.50% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”). The Senior Subordinated Notes are senior subordinated obligations of the Company and will mature on June 1, 2017. Interest is payable semi-annually at 10.50% per annum, which commenced on December 1, 2007.
Each of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee indebtedness under the Credit Facility jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on a senior subordinated basis the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company under the Senior Subordinated Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise. These guarantees are full and unconditional as defined in Rule 3-10(h)(2) of Regulation S-X.
The Company may redeem the Senior Subordinated Notes at its option, subject to certain notice provisions, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on June 1 of the years set forth below:

Note Covenants
The Senior Subordinated Notes, Senior Secured Second Lien Notes, 9.0% Senior Secured First Lien Notes, 6.125% Senior Secured First Lien Notes, and 7.75% Senior Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) contain certain covenants that, among other things, are subject to certain exceptions and other basket amounts. These exceptions and basket amounts are intended to provide the Company flexibility to operate its business in the ordinary course. These covenants restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to:
	•		incur additional indebtedness;
	•		pay dividends or distributions on its capital stock, repurchase or retire its capital stock and redeem, repurchase or defease any subordinated indebtedness;
	•		make certain investments;
	•		create or incur certain liens;
	•		create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions to us from the Company’s subsidiaries;
	•		transfer or sell assets;
	•		engage in certain transactions with its affiliates; and
	•		merge or consolidate with other companies or transfer all or substantially all of its assets.
Certain of these covenants, such as limitations on the Company’s ability to make certain payments such as dividends, or incur debt, will no longer apply if the Notes have investment grade ratings from both of the rating agencies of Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group (“S&P”) and no event of default has occurred. Since the date of issuance of the Notes, the Notes have not received investment grade ratings from Moody’s or S&P. Accordingly, all of the covenants under the Notes currently apply to the Company. None of these covenants, however, require the Company to maintain any particular financial ratio or other measure of financial performance.
Europe Credit Facilities
The Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries have bank credit facilities totaling approximately $2.5 million. The facilities are used for working capital requirements, letters of credit and various guarantees. These credit facilities have been arranged in accordance with customary lending practices in the respective country of operation. As of February 1, 2014, there was a reduction of $2.4 million for outstanding bank guarantees, which reduces the borrowing availability to $0.1 million as of that date.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities	'
	5	DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
	The Company does not have any derivative and hedging activity since September 20, 2012 when the Company terminated its former interest rate swap. During periods when the Company had the interest rate swap, it followed the accounting treatment described below.
	The Company formally designates and documents the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure, as well as the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. The Company formally assesses both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in cash flows of the related underlying exposure. The Company measures the effectiveness of its cash flow hedges by evaluating the following criteria: (i) the re-pricing dates of the derivative instrument match those of the debt obligation; (ii) the interest rates of the derivative instrument and the debt obligation are based on the same interest rate index and tenor; (iii) the variable interest rate of the derivative instrument does not contain a floor or cap, or other provisions that cause a basis difference with the debt obligation; and (iv) the likelihood of the counterparty not defaulting is assessed as being probable.
	The Company primarily employs derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate changes and to limit the volatility and impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company faces credit risk if the counterparties to the financial instruments are unable to perform their obligations. However, the Company seeks to mitigate derivative credit risk by entering into transactions with counterparties that are significant and creditworthy financial institutions. The Company monitors the credit ratings of the counterparties.
	For derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges, the Company reports the effective portion of the change in fair value as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and reclassifies it into earnings in the same periods in which the hedged item affects earnings, and within the same income statement line item as the impact of the hedged item. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a cash flow hedge is recognized in income immediately. No ineffective portion was recorded to earnings during Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively, and all components of the derivative gain or loss were included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. For derivative financial instruments which do not qualify as cash flow hedges, any changes in fair value would be recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	The Company may at its discretion change the designation of any such hedging instrument agreements prior to maturity. At that time, any gains or losses previously reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on termination would amortize into interest expense or interest income to correspond to the recognition of interest expense or interest income on the hedged debt. If such debt instrument was also terminated, the gain or loss associated with the terminated derivative included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at the time of termination of the debt would be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) at that time.
	The following tables provide a summary of the financial statement effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments designated as interest rate cash flow hedges during Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 (in thousands):
	Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships		Amount of Gain or (Loss) Recognized in OCI on

	Leases - The Company leases its retail stores, certain offices and warehouse space, and certain equipment under operating leases which expire at various dates through the year 2031 with options to renew certain of such leases for additional periods. Most lease agreements contain construction allowances and/or rent holidays. For purposes of recognizing landlord incentives and minimum rental 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. The lease agreements covering retail store space provide for minimum rentals and/or rentals based on a percentage of net sales. Rental expense for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 is set forth below (in thousands):
			Fiscal 2013		Fiscal 2012		Fiscal 2011
	Minimum store rentals		$	229,937	$	217,777	$	212,519
	Store rentals based on net sales			2,550		3,224		3,152
	Other rental expense			11,314		9,312		11,352
	Total rental expense		$	243,801	$	230,313	$	227,023
	Minimum aggregate rental commitments as of February 1, 2014 under non-cancelable operating leases are summarized by fiscal year as follows (in thousands):

	2017			124,034
	2018			97,270
	Thereafter			288,541
	Total		$	1,082,708
	Certain leases provide for payment of real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses of the properties. In other leases, some of these costs are included in the basic contractual rental payments. In addition, certain leases contain escalation clauses resulting from the pass-through of increases in operating costs, property taxes, and the effect on costs from changes in price indexes.
	ASC Topic 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, requires the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made and that the associated asset retirement costs be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The retirement obligation relates to costs associated with the retirement of leasehold improvements under store and warehouse leases, within the Europe segment. The Company had retirement obligations of $5.4 million and $5.1 million as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, respectively. These retirement obligations are classified as “Deferred rent expense” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	Legal – The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business, including personal injury litigation, litigation regarding merchandise sold, including product and safety concerns regarding heavy metal and chemical content in merchandise, litigation with respect to various employment matters, including litigation with present and former employees, wage and hour litigation and litigation regarding intellectual property rights.
	The Company believes that current pending litigation will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	Employment Agreements – The Company has employment agreements with several members of senior management. The agreements, with terms ranging from approximately two to three years, provide for minimum salary levels, performance bonuses, and severance payments.

Stock Options and Stock-Based Compensation	'
	8	STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
	On June 29, 2007, the Board of Directors and stockholders of Parent adopted the Claire’s Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides employees and directors of Claire’s Inc., the Company and its subsidiaries, who are in a position to contribute to the long-term success of these entities, with shares or options to acquire shares in Parent to aid in attracting, retaining, and motivating individuals of outstanding ability.
	The Plan was amended on July 23, 2007 and September 9, 2008 to increase the number of shares available for issuance to 6,860,000 and 8,200,000, respectively, and to provide for equity investments by employees and directors of the Company through the voluntary stock purchase program. As of February 1, 2014, 3,033,434 shares were available for future grants. The Board of Directors of Parent awarded certain employees and directors the opportunity to purchase common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, the estimated fair market value of the Company’s common stock. With each share purchased, the employee or director was granted a buy-one-get-one option, (the “BOGO Option”) to purchase an additional share at an exercise price of $10.00 per share.
	The total stock-based compensation (benefit) expense recognized by the Company in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 was $1.1 million, $(1.1) million and $(1.6) million, respectively. During Fiscal 2013 and Fiscal 2012, the Company recorded reversals of stock compensation expense of $1.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively, associated with forfeitures of stock options, including $1.7 million for our former executive officers in Fiscal 2012. Related income tax expense (benefit) of approximately $(0.4) million, $0.4 million and $0.6 million were recognized in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively. Stock-based compensation is recorded in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	Performance Based Stock Option Exchange Offer
	On June 15, 2012, Parent commenced an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to exchange certain performance based stock options held by employees of the Company for new performance based stock options (the “New Options”) granted on a 1 for 2 basis. The Exchange Offer was completed on July 16, 2012. The New Options expire on July 16, 2019.
	The New Options issued under the Exchange Offer provide for the following performance condition:
		•		Vest in equal installments on the first two anniversaries after the first to occur of:
	(i) the date of an initial public offering (“IPO”) at a price of at least $25 per share,
	(ii) any date following an IPO when the average stock price over the preceding 30 consecutive trading days exceeds $25, or
	(iii) any date before an IPO where more than 25% of the outstanding shares of the Parent are sold for cash or marketable consideration having a value of at least $25 per share;
		•		Vest immediately if, on or after the occurrence of an event described in (i), (ii) or (iii), but prior to the second anniversary thereof, there occurs a change of control of Parent.
	The Exchange Offer resulted in $1.2 million in total incremental compensation cost that will be recognized when a performance condition occurs. The Exchange Offer affected approximately 125 employees.
	Incentive Plan Modifications
	On May 20, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Company approved amendments to the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), the form of option grant letter and certain outstanding options (the “Outstanding Options”) held by various employees (collectively, the “Plan Amendments”).
	The Plan Amendments (which apply to Outstanding Options and, unless otherwise specified at the time of grant, any future option grants under the amended Incentive Plan, and, where applicable, any shares held by employees) generally provide for the following:
		•		Eliminated the holding period after vesting for Performance and Stretch Performance options;
		•		Changed the definition of “Qualified IPO”;
		•		Eliminated certain restrictions on transfer of shares in the event of a Qualified IPO;
		•		Provided each optionee the right to satisfy the exercise price and any withholding tax obligation triggered by such exercise by any combination of cash and/or shares (including both previously owned shares and shares otherwise to be delivered upon exercise of the option); and
		•		Added two additional vesting events applicable to Performance Options and to certain Stretch Performance Options if they occur prior to or concurrent with the end of the Company’s fiscal 2012 year.
	The incremental compensation cost associated with the modifications to the Company’s Incentive Plan totaled $2.2 million, of which $0.2 million was initially recognized in the second fiscal quarter 2011 and $0.3 million in the third fiscal quarter 2011. The plan modification affected approximately 155 employees. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2011, the Company determined that the achievement of vesting events for the Performance Stock Options was not probable, and therefore, reversed the stock option expense that was previously recognized for these stock options.
	BOGO Option Offer
	On May 20, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Company also approved an offer pursuant to the amended Incentive Plan to certain employees to purchase a specified number of shares of the common stock of the parent of the Company at a price per share of $10.00 (the “Offer”). For each share purchased, the employee received an option to purchase an additional share at $10.00 (a “BOGO Option”). The Offer was made available to employees who had not previously accepted similar offers from the Parent. The Company granted 179,000 BOGO Options and recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.3 million in Fiscal 2011 related to these options.
	During the period from May 29, 2007 through February 2, 2008, the Board of Directors of Parent approved the grant of a total of approximately 3,265,000 stock options under the Plan to certain employees of the Company. In addition, the Board approved approximately 1,850,000 stock options to certain senior executives. The stock options consist of a “Time Option” and “Performance Option” as those terms are defined in the standard form of the option grant letter. The stock options have an exercise price of $10.00 per share, the estimated fair market value of the underlying shares at the date of grant, and expire seven years after the date of grant. Time Options vest and become exercisable based on continued service to the Company. The Time Options vest in four equal annual installments, commencing one year from date of grant. Performance Options vest based on growth in the stock price between May 29, 2007 and specific quarterly measurement dates commencing with the last day of the eighth full fiscal quarter after May 29, 2007. Upon achievement of the performance target, the Performance Options vest and become exercisable in two equal annual installments on the first two anniversaries of the measurement date. During Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, the Board of Directors approved the grant of approximately 786,690, 3,025,164 and 713,800, respectively, of similar stock options. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense (benefit) of $0.9 million, $(1.2) million and $(2.2) million in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively, related to Time and Performance Options.
	During the period from May 29, 2007 through February 2, 2008, the Board of Directors also granted approximately 970,000 BOGO options which are immediately exercisable and expire in seven years. The period from May 29, 2007 through February 2, 2008 included options to purchase an aggregate of 312,500 BOGO options granted outside of the Plan to certain senior executive officers and directors. During Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012, and Fiscal 2011, the Board of Directors granted 70,000, 55,000 and 186,000, respectively, BOGO options. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.5 million in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively, related to these options.
	The following is a summary of activity in the Company’s stock option plan from February 2, 2013 through February 1, 2014:
			Number of			Weighted			Weighted
			Shares			Average			Average
						Exercise			Remaining
						Price			Contractual
									Term (Years)
	Outstanding as of February 2, 2013			5,027,665		$	10

	Options exercised			—			—
	Options forfeited			(474,937	)	$	10

	Exercisable at end of period			2,058,356		$	10			2
	The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 was $3.43, $1.61 and $2.63, respectively.
	As of February 1, 2014, there was $2.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to non-vested stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.8 years.
	For options granted during Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, the fair value of each option was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo option pricing models with the following assumptions:
	Time Options and BOGO Options (Black-Scholes)		Fiscal 2013			Fiscal 2012			Fiscal 2011
	Expected dividend yield			0	%		0	%		0	%
	Weighted average expected stock price volatility			54.01	%		59.96	%		58.79	%
	Weighted average risk-free interest rate			0.77	%		0.7	%		1.23	%
	Range of risk-free interest rate			0.63% - 1.61	%		0.56% - 1.04	%		0.69% - 2.20	%
	Weighted average expected term (years)			4.7			4.92			4.57
	Performance Options (Monte Carlo)		Fiscal 2013			Fiscal 2012			Fiscal 2011
	Expected dividend yield			0	%		0	%		0	%
	Weighted average expected stock price volatility			53.66	%		54.19	%		55.61	%
	Weighted average risk-free interest rate			1.07	%		0.81	%		1.63	%
	Range of risk-free interest rate			0.92% - 1.63	%		0.53% - 1.56	%		1.24% - 2.59	%
	Weighted average expected term (years)			N/A			N/A			N/A
	The expected term of Time Options and BOGO Options has been based on the “simplified” method in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, Share-Based Payment, as amended by SEC SAB No. 110, because the Company has no readily available relevant historical data on option-hold-periods by employees. The Company’s historical option exercise data does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate an expected term of an option due to new ownership of the Company establishing new equity-based compensation arrangements and different classifications of employees receiving grants. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. Expected stock price volatility was based on peer company data as of the date of each option grant.
	Parent will issue new shares to satisfy exercise of stock options. During Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, no options were exercised and no cash was used to settle equity instruments granted under share-based payment arrangements.
	Time-Vested Restricted Stock Awards
	On May 29, 2007, Parent issued 125,000 shares of restricted common stock to certain members of executive management of the Company. The shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions and the shares are forfeited if a recipient leaves the Company. The shares vested at the rate of 25% on each of May 29, 2008, May 29, 2009, May 29, 2010, and May 29, 2011. Vesting is based on continued service to the Company. The weighted average grant date fair value was $10.00 per share and the shares had an aggregate fair value at date of grant of $1.25 million. Stock-based compensation expense relating to these shares recorded in Fiscal 2011 approximated $15,000. At January 28, 2012, all restricted shares were vested and unearned stock-based compensation related to these shares was $0.

				(15.8	)%		91.8	%		47.8	%
	In Fiscal 2013, the Company’s income tax expense was $8.9 million and its effective income tax rate was (15.8)%, including income tax expense of $37.2 million related to the effect of changes to its valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. In Fiscal 2012, the Company’s income tax expense was $14.4 million and its effective income tax rate was 91.8%, including income tax expense of $14.7 million related to the effect of changes to its valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. In Fiscal 2011, the Company’s income tax expense was $10.6 million and its effective income tax rate was 47.8%, including income tax expense of $3.6 million related to the effect of changes to its valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
	The effective income tax rates for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 also differ from the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% due to the overall geographic mix of losses in jurisdictions with higher income tax rates and income in jurisdictions with lower income tax rates, the impact of earnings of foreign subsidiaries, including repatriation to fund interest payments, and other permanent book to tax return adjustments.

In assessing the need for a valuation allowance recorded against 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. Ultimately, the realization of deferred tax assets will depend on the existence of future taxable income. In making this assessment, management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, past operating results, estimates of future taxable income and tax planning opportunities.
In Fiscal 2013, the Company recorded an increase of $32.0 million in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in the U.S. In Fiscal 2012, the Company recorded an increase of $9.4 million in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in the U.S. In Fiscal 2011, the Company recorded an increase of $4.0 million in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in the U.S. In Fiscal 2008, the Company recorded a charge of $95.8 million to establish a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in the U.S. The Company concluded that a valuation allowance was appropriate in light of the significant negative evidence, which was objective and verifiable, such as cumulative losses in recent fiscal years in our U.S. operations. While the Company’s long-term financial outlook in the U.S. remains positive, the Company concluded that its ability to rely on its long-term outlook as to future taxable income was limited due to the relative weight of the negative evidence from its recent U.S. cumulative losses. The Company’s conclusion regarding the need for a valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets could change in the future based on improvements in operating performance, which may result in the full or partial reversal of the valuation allowance. The foreign valuation allowances relate to net operating loss carryforwards that, in the opinion of management, are more likely than not to expire unutilized.
The net change in the total valuation allowances in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 was an increase of $33.6 million, an increase of $13.7 million and an increase of $4.0 million, respectively.
U.S. income taxes have not been recognized on the balance of accumulated unremitted earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries at February 1, 2014 of $226.4 million, as these accumulated undistributed earnings are considered reinvested indefinitely. For Europe subsidiaries, this amount is based on the balance maintained in local currency of the Company’s accumulated unremitted earnings at February 2, 2008 converted into U.S. dollars at foreign exchange rates in effect on February 1, 2014. Quantification of the deferred tax liability, if any, associated with indefinitely reinvested earnings is not practicable. The Company recognized U.S. income tax expense of $10.9 million, $13.5 million and $6.1 million in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 earnings, respectively, of its foreign subsidiaries. The Company expects that future earnings from its foreign subsidiaries will be repatriated.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands):
		Fiscal 2013			Fiscal 2012			Fiscal 2011
Beginning balance		$	11,229		$	12,435		$	12,670
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year			1,354			1,241			1,163

Settlements			—			(421	)		(290	)
Ending balance		$	9,820		$	11,229		$	12,435
The amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of February 1, 2014 of $9.8 million, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate. These unrecognized tax benefits are classified as “Unfavorable lease obligations and other long-term liabilities” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are included in income tax expense. The Company had $2.8 million and $3.2 million for the payment of interest and penalties accrued as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013, respectively, and are classified as “Unfavorable lease obligations and other long-term liabilities” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. For Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, the Company recognized $(0.4) million, $(0.2) million and $0.3 million, respectively, in interest and penalties.
In April 2011, the Company received from the Canada Revenue Agency withholding tax assessments for 2003 through 2007 of approximately $5.2 million, including penalties and interest. In conjunction with this assessment, a security deposit will be required in the amount of approximately $5.2 million until such time a final decision is made by the tax authority. The Company is objecting to this assessment and believes it will prevail at the appeals level; therefore, an accrual has not been recorded for this item. On February 11, 2013, the Internal Revenue Service concluded its tax examination of our U.S. Federal income tax return for Fiscal 2008 and Fiscal 2009 and did not assess any additional tax liability.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before Fiscal 2010, and with few exceptions, for state, and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before Fiscal 2006. We have also concluded tax examinations in our significant foreign tax jurisdictions including the United Kingdom through Fiscal 2008, France through Fiscal 2004, and Canada through Fiscal 2006.
The Company does not anticipate a significant change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Feb. 01, 2014
Principles of Consolidation	'
	Principles of Consolidation - The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fiscal Year	'
	Fiscal Year - The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. The fiscal years ended February 1, 2014 (“Fiscal 2013”) and January 28, 2012 (“Fiscal 2011”) consisted of 52 weeks, respectively. The fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 (“Fiscal 2012”) consisted of 53 weeks.
Use of Estimates	'
	Use of Estimates - The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the value of inventories, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, legal contingencies and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, stock-based compensation, derivative and hedging activities, residual values and other items. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Illiquidity in credit markets, volatility in each of the equity, foreign currency, and energy markets and declines in consumer spending have combined to increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates will be reflected in the financial statements in those future periods when the changes occur.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	'
	Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. As of February 1, 2014, all cash equivalents were maintained in one money market fund that was invested exclusively in U.S. Treasury securities.
Inventories	'
	Inventories - Merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out basis using the retail method for North America and average cost method, at an individual item level, for Europe.
Prepaid Expenses	'
	Prepaid Expenses – Prepaid expenses as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
		February 1,		February 2,
		2014		2013
	Prepaid rent and occupancy	$	17,071	$	17,853
	Prepaid insurance		438		636
	Other		1,962		1,212
	Total prepaid expenses	$	19,471	$	19,701
Other Current Assets	'
	Other Current Assets - Other current assets as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
		February 1,		February 2,
		2014		2013
	Credit card receivables	$	7,064	$	6,968
	Franchise receivables		3,708		4,367
	Store supplies		5,976		7,158
	Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance		4,600		6,606
	Income taxes receivable		4		37
	Other		4,953		4,485
	Total other current assets	$	26,305	$	29,621
Property and Equipment	'
	Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the furniture, fixtures, and equipment, which range from five to ten years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on the straight-line method based upon the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the terms of the respective leases. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to earnings while expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. Upon the disposition of property and equipment, the accumulated depreciation is deducted from the original cost and any gain or loss is reflected in current earnings.
Capital Leases	'
	Capital Leases - Leased property meeting certain capital lease criteria is capitalized as an asset and the present value of the related lease payments is recorded as a liability. Amortization of capitalized leased assets is recorded using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the leased asset or the initial lease term and is included in “Depreciation and amortization” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Interest expense is recognized on the outstanding capital lease obligation using the effective interest method and is recorded in “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). On February 19, 2010, the Company sold its North America distribution center/office building (the “Property”) to a third party. The Company received net proceeds of $16.8 million from the sale of the Property. Contemporaneously with the sale of the Property, the Company entered into a lease agreement, dated February 19, 2010. The lease agreement provides for (1) an initial expiration date of February 28, 2030 with two (2) five (5) year renewal periods, each at the option of the Company and (2) basic rent of $2.1 million per annum (subject to annual increases). This transaction is accounted for as a capital lease. The Company has a $1.1 million letter of credit to secure lease payments for the Property.
Goodwill	'
	Goodwill - As discussed in Note 1 – Nature of Operations and Acquisition of Claire’s Stores, Inc. above, the Company accounted for the acquisition of Claire’s Stores, Inc. as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. At the date of acquisition, the Company allocated the purchase price to assets and liabilities based on estimated fair market values and the remaining $1.8 billion excess of cost over amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
	The Company performs a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated, at the Company’s option, by first performing a qualitative assessment for any reporting unit for any period or by bypassing the qualitative assessment and proceeding directly to the first step of our two-step goodwill impairment test. If the Company determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value amount, then performing the two-step impairment test would be unnecessary. The first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying value. If a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the implied fair value and carrying value of that reporting unit’s goodwill. To the extent that a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized. See Note 3 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
Intangible Assets	'
	Intangible Assets – Intangible assets include tradenames, franchise agreements, lease rights, territory rights and leases that existed at the date of acquisition with terms that were favorable to market at that date. The Company makes investments through its Europe subsidiaries in intangible assets upon the opening and acquisition of many of our store locations in Europe. These intangible assets are amortized to residual value on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the respective leases, not to exceed 25 years. The Company evaluates the residual value of its intangible assets periodically and adjusts the amortization period and/or residual value when the Company believes the residual value of the asset is not recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value more likely than not exceeds its fair value. Definite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Any impairment charges resulting from the application of these tests are immediately recorded as a charge to earnings in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 3 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
Deferred Financing Costs	'
	Deferred Financing Costs – Costs incurred to issue debt are deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense over the estimated term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method. Amortization expense, recognized as a component of “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), were $8.2 million, $9.9 million and $13.1 million for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively.
Other Assets	'
	Other Assets - Other assets as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
		February 1,		February 2,
		2014		2013
	Initial direct costs of leases	$	17,568	$	17,811
	Prepaid lease payments		8,235		8,390
	Deferred tax assets, non-current		4,244		1,152
	Other		24,349		22,495
	Total other assets	$	54,396	$	49,848
	The initial direct costs of leases and prepaid lease payments are amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms, typically ranging from four to 15 years.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	'
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net book value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the net book value of an asset or asset group to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If these comparisons indicate that the asset or asset group is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset or asset group. The fair value is estimated based on discounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group using a rate that reflects the operating segment’s average cost of capital. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and are no longer depreciated.
Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities	'
	Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities – Accrued expenses and other current liabilities as of February 1, 2014 and February 2, 2013 included the following components (in thousands):
		February 1,		February 2,
		2014		2013
	Compensation and benefits	$	33,444	$	40,025
	Gift cards and certificates		23,125		22,695
	Sales and local taxes		17,441		15,708
	Store rent		2,460		3,012
	Other		18,257		18,089
	Total accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	94,727	$	99,529
Revenue Recognition	'
	Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes sales as the customer takes possession of the merchandise. The estimated liability for sales returns is based on the historical return levels, which is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.” The Company excludes sales taxes collected from customers from “Net sales” in its Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	The Company accounts for the goods it sells to third parties under franchising and licensing agreements within “Net sales” and “Cost of sales, occupancy and buying expenses” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The franchise fees the Company charges under the franchising agreements are reported in “Other income, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
	Upon purchase of a gift card or gift certificate, a liability is established for the cash value. The liability is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.” Revenue from gift card and gift certificate sales is recognized at the time of redemption.
Cost of Sales	'
	Cost of Sales - Included within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) line item “Cost of sales, occupancy and buying expenses” is the cost of merchandise sold to our customers, inbound and outbound freight charges, purchasing costs, and inspection costs. Also included in this line item are the occupancy costs of the Company’s stores and the Company’s internal costs of facilitating the merchandise procurement process, both of which are treated as period costs. All merchandise purchased by the Company is shipped to one of its two distribution centers. As a result, the Company has no internal transfer costs. The cost of the Company’s distribution centers are included within the financial statement line item “Selling, general and administrative expenses,” and not in “Cost of sales, occupancy and buying expenses.” These distribution center costs were approximately $12.3 million, $11.7 million and $12.4 million, for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively. All depreciation and amortization expense is reported on a separate financial statement line item on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Advertising Expenses	'
	Advertising Expenses - The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred, including in-store marketing, mall association dues and digital interactive media. Advertising expenses were $12.6 million, $11.9 million and $15.9 million for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively.
Rent Expense	'
	Rent Expense - The Company recognizes rent expense for operating leases with periods of free rent (including construction periods), step rent provisions, and escalation clauses on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease term. From time to time, the Company may receive capital improvement funding from its lessors. These amounts are recorded as a “Deferred rent expense” and amortized over the remaining lease term as a reduction of rent expense. The Company considers lease renewals in the determination of the applicable lease term when such renewals are reasonably assured. The Company takes this factor into account when calculating minimum aggregate rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases set forth in Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies.
Stock-Based Compensation	'
	Stock-Based Compensation - The Company issues stock options and other stock-based awards to executive management, key employees, and directors under its stock-based compensation plans.
	Time-vested stock awards, including stock options and restricted stock, are accounted for at fair value at date of grant. The stock-based compensation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period using the graded-vesting method for the entire award. Performance-based stock awards are accounted for at fair value at date of grant. The stock-based expense was based upon the number of shares expected to be issued when it became probable that performance targets required to receive the awards would be achieved.
	Buy one, get one (“BOGO”) options issued prior to May 2011 were immediately vested, exercisable upon issuance, and accounted for at fair value at date of grant. The compensation expense for these BOGOs was recognized over a four year period due to the terms of the option requiring forfeiture in certain cases including the grantee’s voluntary resignation from the Company’s employ prior to May 2011. BOGOs issued subsequent to May 2011 are accounted for at the fair value at date of grant and the compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period.
Income Taxes	'
	Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which generally requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax laws or rates is recognized in income in the period the new legislation is enacted. Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the likelihood of realization, the Company considers estimates of future taxable income.
	The Company is subject to tax audits in numerous jurisdictions, including the United States, individual states and localities, and internationally. Tax audits by their very nature are often complex and can require several years to complete. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to challenges from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities regarding amounts of taxes due. These challenges may alter the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions, or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which clarifies the accounting for income taxes in the financial statements by prescribing a minimum probability recognition threshold and measurement process for recording uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This guidance requires that the Company determine whether a tax position is more likely than not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are at least more likely than not of being sustained upon audit, the Company recognizes the largest amount of the benefit that is more likely than not of being sustained. See Note 10 – Income Taxes for further information.
Foreign Currency Translation	'
	Foreign Currency Translation - The financial statements of the Company’s foreign operations are translated into U.S. Dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at fiscal year-end exchange rates while income and expense accounts are translated at the average rates in effect during the year. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are accumulated as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, including intercompany transactions, except for intercompany loans of a long-term investment nature, are included the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). These foreign currency transaction losses (gains) were approximately $0.3 million, $(1.4) million and $0.9 million, for Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011, respectively.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)	'
	Comprehensive Income (Loss) - Comprehensive income (loss) represents a measure of all changes in shareholder’s deficit except for changes resulting from transactions with shareholders in their capacity as shareholders. The Company’s total comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustments, gain (loss) on intra-entity foreign currency transactions, reclassification of foreign currency translation adjustments into net income (loss) and adjustments for derivative instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges. Amounts included in “Comprehensive income (loss)” are recorded net of income taxes.
Derivative Financial Instruments	'
	Derivative Financial Instruments – The Company recognizes the fair value of derivative financial instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses related to a hedge that result from changes in the fair value of the hedge are either recognized in income to offset the gain or loss on the hedged item, or deferred and reported as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently recognized in income when the hedged item affects net income (loss). The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a hedge is recognized in income immediately. The Company did not have any derivative instruments as of February 1, 2014 or February 2, 2013. See Note 5 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities for further information.
Fair Value Measurements	'
	Fair Value Measurements – ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Disclosures of the fair value of certain financial instruments are required, whether or not recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 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 at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. There is a three-level valuation hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.
	Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
	The Company does not have any assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company’s former interest rate swap, which was previously measured at fair value on a recurring basis, was terminated on September 20, 2012.
	Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
	The Company’s non-financial assets, which include goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived tangible assets, are not adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measures of non-financial assets are primarily used in the impairment analysis of these assets. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the non-financial asset be recorded at its fair value. The Company reviews goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or as circumstances indicate the possibility of impairment. The Company monitors the carrying value of definite-lived intangible assets and long-lived tangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate its carrying amount may not be recoverable. There was no impairment of the Company’s non-financial assets during Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011.
	Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
	The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, current liabilities, and long-term debt. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and current liabilities approximate fair market value due to the relatively short maturity of these financial instruments.
	The Company considers all investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalent instruments are valued using quoted market prices and consist of U.S. Treasury securities. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $2.36 billion at February 1, 2014, compared to a carrying value of $2.38 billion at that date. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $2.41 billion at February 2, 2013, compared to a carrying value of $2.37 billion at that date. For publicly-traded debt, the fair value (estimated market value) is based on quoted market prices in less active markets. For non-publicly traded debt, fair value is estimated based on quoted prices for similar instruments. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	'
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which clarifies guidance and eliminates diversity in practice on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This would be the case when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account instead of directly to income or expense in the same reporting period. The amendments are effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance in first quarter of Fiscal 2013 and it did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. If an entity can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the entity is not required to take further action. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2013 and it did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	There are no recently issued accounting standards that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Reclassifications	'
	Reclassifications – The Consolidated Financial Statements include certain reclassifications of prior period amounts in order to conform to current year presentation.
