CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Our SEC filings and public announcements may include forward-looking statements about future events. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. We intend for all forward-looking statements contained herein, in our press releases or on our website, and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf, to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (which Sections were adopted as part of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). Important assumptions relating to these forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding the impact of economic conditions on consumer demand and spending, particularly in light of general economic uncertainty that continues to prevail, demand for our products, timing of shipments requested by our wholesale customers, expected pricing levels, competitive conditions, retention of and disciplined execution by key management, the timing and cost of store openings and of planned capital expenditures, costs of products as well as the raw materials used in those products, costs of labor, acquisition and disposition activities, expected outcomes of pending or potential litigation and regulatory actions, access to capital and/or credit markets and the impact of foreign losses on our effective tax rate. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations, based on currently available information, and are not guarantees of performance. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, these expectations could prove inaccurate as such statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our ability to control or predict. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties, or other risks or uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Important factors relating to these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012, as updated by Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in this report and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC. We caution that one should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. We disclaim any intention, obligation or duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2013

1. Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP.  We believe the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented.  Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for our full fiscal year.  The accounting policies applied during the interim periods presented are consistent with the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012.

2. Inventories: The components of inventories as of the dates specified are summarized in the following table (in thousands):

	August 3, 2013			February 2, 2013			July 28, 2012
Finished goods	$	147,051		$	154,593		$	130,469
Work in process	7,509			6,028			5,426
Fabric, trim and supplies	3,807			5,431			4,863
LIFO reserve	(56,447		)	(56,447		)	(52,376		)
Total	$	101,920		$	109,605		$	88,382

LIFO accounting adjustments, which we consider to include changes in the LIFO reserve as well as the impact of changes in inventory reserves related to lower of cost or market adjustments that do not exceed the LIFO reserve, were a charge of $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, a credit of $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, a charge of $0.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2013 and a credit $0.0 million in the first half of fiscal 2012.

3. Operating Group Information:  Our business is primarily operated through our four operating groups: Tommy Bahama, Lilly Pulitzer, Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012. We identify our operating groups based on the way our management organizes the components of our business for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. Our operating group structure reflects a brand-focused management approach, emphasizing operational coordination and resource allocation across each brand’s direct to consumer, wholesale and licensing operations. The tables below present certain information (in thousands) about our operating groups, as well as Corporate and Other, which is a reconciling category for reporting purposes.

4. Income Taxes: Income tax expense reflects effective tax rates of 40.7%, 36.0%, 43.2% and 37.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012, respectively. The effective tax rates for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and first half of fiscal 2013 were unfavorably impacted by losses in foreign jurisdictions for which we were not able to recognize an income tax benefit, whereas the effective tax rates in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and the first half of fiscal 2012 were not as unfavorably impacted by our foreign losses. The effective tax rate for each period was favorably impacted by a decrease in the enacted tax rate in the United Kingdom.

5. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss: The following tables detail the changes in our accumulated other comprehensive loss by component (in thousands), net of related income taxes, for the periods specified:

Second Quarter Fiscal 2013	Foreign  currency  translation  gain (loss)			Net unrealized  gain (loss) on  cash flow  hedges			Accumulated  other  comprehensive  income (loss)

Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for gain realized	—			(22		)	(22		)
Total other comprehensive (loss) income, net of taxes	(1,362		)	349			(1,013		)
Ending balance	$	(25,348	)	$	(250	)	$	(25,598	)
First Half Fiscal 2012	Foreign  currency  translation  gain (loss)			Net unrealized  gain (loss) on  cash flow  hedges			Accumulated  other  comprehensive  income (loss)
Beginning balance	$	(24,157	)	$	483		$	(23,674	)
Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications	98			(406		)	(308		)
Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for loss realized	—			517			517
Total other comprehensive income, net of taxes	98			111			209
Ending balance	$	(24,059	)	$	594		$	(23,465	)

Substantially all of the amounts reclassified from accumulated comprehensive loss included in the tables above relate to the gain (loss) on forward foreign currency exchange contracts. When forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled, the resulting gain (loss) is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to inventory in our consolidated balance sheet and then ultimately recognized in net earnings as cost of goods sold as the inventory is sold. The amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income relating to the gain (loss) on our interest rate swap agreements, if any, are recognized as interest expense in our consolidated statement of earnings.

6. Business Combination: On May 6, 2013, we acquired from our former licensee the business operations relating to the Tommy Bahama business in Canada, which was accounted for as a business combination. As part of the acquisition, we reacquired the rights pursuant to the license agreement and we acquired nine Tommy Bahama retail store operations and a wholesale business.  As we have not completed our valuation of assets and liabilities acquired, we have not finalized the purchase price allocation related to this acquisition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report and the consolidated financial statements, notes to consolidated financial statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012.

OVERVIEW

We generate revenues and cash flow primarily through our design, sourcing, marketing and distribution of branded apparel products bearing the trademarks of our owned lifestyle brands, as well as certain licensed and private label apparel products. We distribute our products through our direct to consumer channels, including our retail stores, e-commerce sites and restaurants, and our wholesale distribution channel, which includes better department stores, specialty stores, national chains, specialty catalogs, mass merchants and Internet retailers. In fiscal 2012, more than 90% of our consolidated net sales were to customers located in the United States, with the remainder primarily being sales of our Ben Sherman® products in the United Kingdom and Europe. We source substantially all of our products through third party manufacturers located outside of the United States.

Our business strategy is to develop and market compelling lifestyle brands and products that are “fashion right” and evoke a strong emotional response from our target consumers. We strive to exploit the potential of our existing brands and products and, as suitable opportunities arise, we may acquire additional lifestyle brands that we believe fit within our business model. We believe that lifestyle branded products that create an emotional connection with our target consumers can command greater customer loyalty and higher price points at retail, resulting in higher earnings. We also believe a successful lifestyle brand opens up greater opportunities for direct to consumer and licensing operations.

We operate in highly competitive domestic and international markets in which numerous U.S.-based and foreign apparel firms compete. No single apparel firm or small group of apparel firms dominates the apparel industry and our direct competitors vary by operating group and distribution channel. We believe that the principal competitive factors in the apparel industry are the reputation, value and image of brand names; design; consumer preference; price; quality; marketing; and customer service. We believe that our ability to compete successfully in styling and marketing is directly related to our proficiency in foreseeing changes and trends in fashion and consumer preference, and presenting appealing products for consumers. In some instances, a retailer that is our customer may compete directly with us by offering certain of its own competing products, some of which may be sourced directly by our customer, in its own retail stores. Additionally, the apparel industry is cyclical and dependent upon the overall level of discretionary consumer spending, which changes as regional, domestic and international economic conditions change. Often, negative economic conditions have a longer and more severe impact on the apparel and retail industry than the conditions have on other industries.

We believe the global economic conditions and resulting economic uncertainty that has prevailed in recent years continue to impact each of our operating groups, and the apparel industry as a whole. Although some signs of economic improvements exist in the United States, the retail environment remains promotional and economic uncertainty remains. Further, the economies of the United Kingdom and Europe, which are important to our Ben Sherman operating group, continue to struggle more than the economy in the United States. We anticipate that sales of our products may continue to be negatively impacted as long as there is an elevated level of economic uncertainty. Additionally, we were impacted in recent periods by pricing pressures on raw materials, fuel, transportation, labor and other costs necessary for the production and sourcing of apparel products, which continues in fiscal 2013.

We believe that our Tommy Bahama® and Lilly Pulitzer® lifestyle brands have significant opportunities for long-term growth in their direct to consumer businesses through expansion of our retail store operations as we add additional retail store locations and with increases in same store and e-commerce sales, with e-commerce likely to grow at a faster rate than retail store operations. We also believe that these lifestyle brands provide an opportunity for moderate sales increases in their wholesale businesses in the long-term primarily from our current customers adding to their existing door count and the selective addition of new wholesale customers. We believe that we must continue to invest in our Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer lifestyle brands in order to take advantage of long-term growth opportunities.

We believe that the tailored clothing environment will continue to be very challenging, with competition and costing pressures negatively impacting operating income in Lanier Clothes in the near term. The Ben Sherman lifestyle brand currently faces challenges due to our ongoing elevation of the distribution of the brand, the sluggish economic conditions in the United Kingdom and Europe and missteps in the merchandise mix in our own retail stores during the second half of fiscal 2012. We

12

believe that in the long-term Ben Sherman will have opportunities to improve its operating results if the elevation of the brand is successful and the economic conditions in the United Kingdom and Europe improve.

We continue to believe that it is important to maintain a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity. We believe that our positive cash flow from operations coupled with the strength of our balance sheet and liquidity will provide us with ample resources to fund future investments in our lifestyle brands. In the future, we may add additional lifestyle brands to our portfolio, if we identify appropriate targets which meet our investment criteria; however, we believe that we have significant opportunities to appropriately deploy our capital and resources in our existing lifestyle brands.

The following table sets forth our consolidated operating results (in thousands, except per share amounts) for the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012:

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Net sales	$	469,227	$	437,882
Operating income	$	53,773	$	53,106
Net earnings	$	29,429	$	23,030
Net earnings per diluted share	$	1.78	$	1.39

The primary reasons for the higher earnings in the first half of fiscal 2013 were:

• The first half of fiscal 2012 including a charge of $9.1 million related to a loss on the repurchase of senior notes, which resulted from our July 2012 redemption of the remaining $105 million in aggregate principal amount of our 11 3/8% senior notes using borrowings under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement, with no loss on repurchase of senior notes in the first half of fiscal 2013;

• A $4.9 million reduction in interest expense in the first half of fiscal 2013 to $2.0 million due to our borrowing at lower interest rates in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012 as a result of our July 2012 senior notes redemption;

• An increase in net sales in both the Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer operating groups; and

• A $1.1 million reduction in the change in fair value of contingent consideration.

These items were partially offset by:

• An increase in SG&A for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer which was primarily due to the SG&A associated with the operation and pre-opening expenses of retail stores opened in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013 and other SG&A increases to support the growing Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer businesses;

• A decrease in net sales and operating results at both Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman;

• A higher effective tax rate in the first half of fiscal 2013 primarily due to our inability to recognize the income tax benefit of losses in foreign jurisdictions in fiscal 2013; and

• $0.6 million of charges in the aggregate incurred in the first half of fiscal 2013 related to an inventory step-up charge and amortization of intangible assets as a result of our acquisition of the Tommy Bahama operations in Canada in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

OPERATING GROUPS

Our business is primarily operated through our four operating groups: Tommy Bahama, Lilly Pulitzer, Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman. We identify our operating groups based on the way our management organizes the components of our business for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. Our operating group structure reflects a brand-focused management approach, emphasizing operational coordination and resource allocation across each brand’s direct to consumer, wholesale and licensing operations.

Tommy Bahama designs, sources, markets and distributes men’s and women’s sportswear and related products. The target consumers of Tommy Bahama are primarily affluent men and women age 35 and older who embrace a relaxed and casual approach to daily living. Tommy Bahama products can be found in our Tommy Bahama stores within and outside the United States and on our Tommy Bahama e-commerce website, tommybahama.com, as well as in better department stores and independent specialty stores throughout the United States. We also operate Tommy Bahama restaurants and license the Tommy Bahama name for various product categories.

Lilly Pulitzer designs, sources and distributes upscale collections of women’s and girl’s dresses, sportswear and related products. Lilly Pulitzer was originally created in the late 1950’s and is an affluent brand with a heritage and aesthetic based on the Palm Beach resort lifestyle. The brand is somewhat unique among women’s brands in that it has demonstrated multi-generational appeal, including young women in college or recently graduated from college; young mothers with their daughters; and women who are not tied to the academic calendar. Lilly Pulitzer products can be found in our owned Lilly Pulitzer stores, in Lilly Pulitzer Signature Stores and on our Lilly Pulitzer website, lillypulitzer.com, as well as in better department and independent specialty stores. We also license the Lilly Pulitzer name for various product categories. As of August 3, 2013, we operated 22 owned Lilly Pulitzer retail stores.

Lanier Clothes designs, sources and markets branded and private label men’s tailored clothing, including suits, sportcoats, suit separates and dress slacks across a wide range of price points, with the majority of the business at moderate price points. Substantially all of our Lanier Clothes branded products are sold under certain trademarks licensed to us by third parties. Licensed brands included Kenneth Cole®, Dockers®, Geoffrey Beene® and Ike Behar®. Additionally, we design and market products for our owned Billy London®, Arnold Brant® and Oxford Republic® brands. In addition to the branded businesses, which represented 73% of Lanier Clothes net sales in fiscal 2012, Lanier Clothes designs and sources private label tailored clothing products for certain customers. Our Lanier Clothes products are sold to national chains, department stores, specialty stores, specialty catalog retailers and discount retailers throughout the United States.

Ben Sherman is a London-based designer, marketer and distributor of men’s branded sportswear and related products. Ben Sherman was established in 1963 as an edgy shirt brand that was adopted by the “Mods” and has throughout its history been inspired by what is new and current in British art, music, culture and style. The brand has evolved into a British modernist lifestyle brand of apparel targeted at style conscious men ages 25 to 40 in multiple markets throughout the world. Ben Sherman products can be found in better department stores, a variety of independent specialty stores and our owned and licensed Ben Sherman retail stores, as well as on Ben Sherman e-commerce websites. We also license the Ben Sherman name for various product categories. As of August 3, 2013 we operated 19 owned Ben Sherman international and domestic retail stores, including 12 full-price retail stores and seven outlets.

Corporate and Other is a reconciling category for reporting purposes and includes our corporate offices, substantially all financing activities, elimination of inter-segment sales, LIFO inventory accounting adjustments, other costs that are not allocated to the operating groups and operations of our other businesses which are not included in our four operating groups. LIFO inventory calculations are made on a legal entity basis which does not correspond to our operating group definitions; therefore, LIFO inventory accounting adjustments are not allocated to operating groups.  In addition to our corporate activities and other costs not allocated to our operating groups, Corporate and Other includes our Oxford Golf business and our Lyons, Georgia distribution center operations.

For further information regarding our operating groups, see Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report and Part I, Item 1. Business in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012.

COMPARABLE STORE SALES

We often disclose comparable store sales in order to provide additional information regarding changes in our results of operations between periods. Our disclosures of comparable store sales include sales from full-price stores and our e-commerce sites, excluding sales associated with e-commerce flash clearance sales. We believe that given the similar nature and process of inventory planning, allocation and return policy, as well as our cross-channel marketing, and other initiatives, for the direct to consumer channel, the inclusion of our e-commerce sites in the comparable store sales disclosures is a more meaningful way of reporting our comparable store sales results. For our comparable store sales disclosures, we exclude (1) outlet store sales, warehouse sales and amounts related to e-commerce flash clearance sales, as those sales are used primarily to liquidate end of season inventory, which may vary significantly depending on the level of end of season inventory on hand and generally occurs at lower gross margins than our full-price direct to consumer sales and (2) restaurant sales as we do not believe that the inclusion of restaurant sales is meaningful in assessing our consolidated operations.

14

For purposes of our disclosures, we consider a comparable store to be, in addition to our e-commerce sites, a physical full-price retail store that was owned and open as of the beginning of the prior fiscal year and which did not during the relevant periods, and is not within the current fiscal year scheduled to, have (1) a remodel resulting in the store being closed for an extended period of time (which we define as a period of two weeks or longer), (2) a greater than 15% change in the size of the retail space due to expansion, reduction or relocation to a new retail space or (3) a relocation to a new space that was significantly different from the prior retail space. For those stores which are excluded from comparable stores based on the preceding sentence, we treat those stores as new store openings. Generally, a store that is remodeled will continue to be included in our comparable store metrics as a store is not typically closed for a two week period during a remodel. However, a store that is relocated generally will not be included in our comparable store metrics until that store has been open in the relocated space for the entirety of the prior fiscal year as the size or other characteristics of the store typically change significantly from the prior location. Additionally, any stores that were closed during the prior fiscal year or which we plan to close or vacate in the current fiscal year are excluded from the definition of comparable stores.

Definitions and calculations of comparable store sales differ among companies in the apparel retail industry, and therefore comparable store metrics disclosed by us may not be comparable to the metrics disclosed by other companies.

Net Sales

15

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change			% Change
Tommy Bahama	$	153,220	$	127,463	$	25,757		20.2	%
Lilly Pulitzer	38,164		30,903		7,261			23.5	%
Lanier Clothes	22,315		24,808		(2,493		)	(10.0	)%

Total net sales	$	235,024	$	206,929	$	28,095		13.6	%

Consolidated net sales increased $28.1 million, or 13.6%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 primarily due to the increase in net sales at Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer, which were partially offset by decreased net sales at Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman, each as discussed below. Further, as direct to consumer sales grew at a faster rate than wholesale sales, during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 net sales in the direct to consumer channel of distribution represented a greater percentage of net sales as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012, as presented below:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
Full-price retail stores and outlets	45	%	42	%
E-commerce	13	%	10	%
Restaurant	6	%	6	%
Wholesale	36	%	42	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Tommy Bahama:

The Tommy Bahama sales increase of $25.8 million, or 20.2%, was primarily driven by (1) a net sales increase of $10.1 million associated with domestic retail stores and outlet stores opened during fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013, (2) a 13% increase in comparable store sales, which includes full price retail stores and e-commerce sales, to $70.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $62.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and (3) a net sales increase associated with the expansion of our Tommy Bahama operations in Australia, Asia and Canada of $5.4 million. Restaurant and wholesale sales also increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012. Tommy Bahama’s apparel unit sales increased by 14.1% primarily due to the higher volume in the direct to consumer distribution channel and international expansion, and the average selling price per apparel unit increased by 6.0% as sales in the direct to consumer channel of distribution, which generally have a higher sales price per unit than wholesale sales, represented a greater proportion of Tommy Bahama net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The following table presents the proportion of net sales by distribution channel for Tommy Bahama for each period presented:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
Full-price retail stores and outlets	53	%	51	%
E-commerce	14	%	12	%
Restaurant	10	%	10	%
Wholesale	23	%	27	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Lilly Pulitzer:

The Lilly Pulitzer sales increase of $7.3 million, or 23.5%, was primarily driven by (1) a 19% increase in comparable store sales to $17.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $14.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, 

16

(2) a net sales increase of $2.4 million associated with retail stores opened in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013, and (3) an increase in wholesale and warehouse sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Lilly Pulitzer’s unit sales increased by 20.9% while the average selling price per apparel unit increased by 2.2%. The increase in units sold was driven by increased units in all channels of distribution. The increased selling price per unit primarily resulted from a higher proportion of direct to consumer sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.  The following table presents the proportion of net sales by distribution channel for Lilly Pulitzer for each period presented:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
Full-price retail stores and warehouse sales	43	%	44	%
E-commerce	22	%	17	%
Wholesale	35	%	39	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Lanier Clothes:

The decrease in net sales for Lanier Clothes of $2.5 million, or 10.0%, was primarily due to the decrease in sales in the branded distribution channel, which was partially offset by an increase in private label sales. The decrease in sales was primarily due to the timing of wholesale orders, with some sales shifting to the third quarter in fiscal 2013, and softness in the suits business of certain of our customers. Unit sales increased 2.2% driven by the increase in private label sales. A decrease in average selling price per unit of 12.0% was primarily due to a change in product mix, as private label products represented a greater proportion of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, as well as continued pricing pressures in the tailored clothing business.

Ben Sherman:

Net sales for Ben Sherman decreased by $3.8 million, or 19.0%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012, due to a $3.9 million decline in wholesale sales, with direct to consumer net sales generally being comparable between the periods as sales at the additional stores operated in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 offset comparable store sales decreases. The decrease in net sales for Ben Sherman was primarily driven by a reduction in unit volume of 20.5% primarily attributable to (1) our exit from certain wholesale accounts in the United Kingdom and the United States, (2) certain wholesale sales shifting from the second quarter of fiscal 2013 to the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and (3) the difficult economic conditions that persist in the United Kingdom and Europe. Although not as significantly as in the last two quarters, the direct to consumer operations of Ben Sherman continued to be negatively impacted by the missteps in Ben Sherman’s merchandise assortment planning that began in the second half of fiscal 2012, and, particularly in the current economic environment, resulted in too much product offering in styles at the higher end of the price range, which gave rise to more promotions in our retail stores in order to sell inventory on hand.

The reduction in units sold was partially offset by an increase in the average selling price per unit of 1.9%. The increase in average selling price per unit reflects a greater proportion of Ben Sherman’s sales being direct to consumer sales. The change in sales mix that positively impacted average selling price per unit was partially offset by a 3.6% unfavorable foreign currency translation change in the average exchange rates between the two periods. The following table presents the proportion of net sales by distribution channel for Ben Sherman for each period presented:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
Wholesale	51	%	61	%
Direct to consumer	49	%	39	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Corporate and Other:

17

Corporate and Other net sales primarily consisted of the net sales of our Oxford Golf business and our Lyons, Georgia distribution center. The increase in the net sales of $1.4 million for Corporate and Other was primarily driven by higher net sales in our Oxford Golf business during the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

Gross Profit

The table below presents gross profit by operating group and in total for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as well as the change between those two periods. Our gross profit and gross margin, which is calculated as gross profit divided by net sales, may not be directly comparable to those of our competitors, as statement of operations classification of certain expenses may vary by company.

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012			$ Change			% Change
Tommy Bahama	$	96,448	$	78,966		$	17,482		22.1	%
Lilly Pulitzer	24,558		20,314			4,244			20.9	%
Lanier Clothes	6,310		6,846			(536		)	(7.8	)%
Ben Sherman	7,591		10,761			(3,170		)	(29.5	)%
Corporate and Other	1,942		1,393			549			39.4	%
Total gross profit	$	136,849	$	118,280		$	18,569		15.7	%
LIFO charges (credits) included in Corporate and Other	$	317	$	(258	)
Inventory step-up charge included in Tommy Bahama	$	283	$	—

The increase in consolidated gross profit was primarily driven by the higher net sales in Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer partially offset by the lower net sales in Ben Sherman and Lanier Clothes, each as discussed above. In addition to the impact of changes in net sales, gross profit on a consolidated basis and for each operating group was also impacted by the changes in gross margin by operating group, as discussed below. The table below presents gross margin by operating group and in total for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
Tommy Bahama	62.9	%	62.0	%
Lilly Pulitzer	64.3	%	65.7	%
Lanier Clothes	28.3	%	27.6	%
Ben Sherman	46.6	%	53.5	%
Corporate and Other	38.5	%	38.1	%
Consolidated gross margin	58.2	%	57.2	%

On a consolidated basis, the increase in gross margins from the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to a change in the sales mix. The change in sales mix in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 included (1) Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer, which typically have higher gross margins than our other operating groups, representing a greater proportion of our consolidated net sales and (2) direct to consumer sales, which generally have higher gross margins than wholesale sales, making up a larger proportion of the Tommy Bahama, Lilly Pulitzer and Ben Sherman sales. These items, which positively impacted gross margins, were partially offset by the more significant off-price sales and promotions at Ben Sherman during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

The higher gross margin at Tommy Bahama was primarily due to the change in the proportion of sales in each distribution channel as sales in the direct to consumer distribution channel, which typically have higher gross margins than the wholesale distribution channel, represented a greater proportion of Tommy Bahama’s net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. This change in sales mix towards the direct to consumer channel of distribution offset the negative impact of $0.3 million of purchase accounting charges recognized in cost of goods sold in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 related to the acquisition of the previously licensed business in Canada. We anticipate that we will incur a charge for inventory step-up in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 of approximately $0.4 million and do not anticipate any charges for inventory step-up beyond the third quarter of fiscal 2013 related to this acquisition.

18

The decrease in gross margin for Lilly Pulitzer from the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily driven by (1) a change in sales mix with sportswear, licensed products and accessories, which generally have lower gross margins, representing a greater proportion of Lilly Pulitzer sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, (2) our retail store operations being more promotional than the prior year and a larger warehouse sale than in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 in order to move a greater amount of excess spring inventory and (3) our e-commerce operations offering free shipping on a more frequent basis. The negative gross margin impact of these factors exceeded the positive impact of the change in sales mix towards direct to consumer sales.

The increase in gross margin at Lanier Clothes was primarily the result of a change in the sales mix within Lanier Clothes. We do not anticipate that gross margins will typically increase in future periods as we believe gross margin pressures, from both competitive factors and higher product costs, will continue to impact the tailored clothing business.

The decrease in gross margin at Ben Sherman reflects (1) a higher proportion of off-price sales in the wholesale business, (2) heavier promotions in the direct to consumer business and (3) the competitive factors resulting from the difficult economic conditions that persist in the United Kingdom and Europe. The heavier promotions and the higher proportion of off-price wholesale sales, which were necessary to appropriately manage inventory levels, primarily resulted from the merchandising misstep in the second half of fiscal 2012, the impact of the economic environment and the disposal of certain excess inventory in the United Kingdom prior to switching from one third-party distribution center to another third-party distribution center. These negative factors offset the positive gross margin impact of the change in sales mix with direct to consumer sales representing a larger proportion of Ben Sherman sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

The gross profit in Corporate and Other in each period primarily reflects the gross profit of our Oxford Golf and Lyons, Georgia distribution center operations offset by the impact of LIFO accounting adjustments. Gross margins for the Oxford Golf business improved in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, but the impact was partially offset by the net impact of LIFO accounting between the two periods. The LIFO accounting charge was $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to a credit of $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

SG&A

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013			Second Quarter Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
SG&A	$	112,424		$	100,702		$	11,722	11.6	%
SG&A (as % of net sales)	47.8		%	48.7		%
Amortization of intangible assets included in Tommy Bahama associated with Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition	$	333		$	—

The increase in SG&A was primarily due to (1) $9.1 million of incremental SG&A in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 associated with operating additional Tommy Bahama retail stores and restaurants and Lilly Pulitzer stores and (2) higher costs, consisting primarily of employment expenses, to support the growing Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer businesses. The incremental SG&A costs of operating additional Tommy Bahama retail stores and restaurants include incremental costs associated with domestic, Asia-Pacific and Canadian locations. The increases in SG&A for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer were partially offset by SG&A reductions in Ben Sherman, Lanier Clothes and Corporate and Other.

SG&A included $0.5 million of amortization of intangible assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 with the increase being amortization associated with the intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition of the previously licensed Tommy Bahama business operations in Canada. We anticipate that amortization of intangible assets for fiscal 2013 will be approximately $1.8 million, with approximately $1.0 million of the amortization reflecting nine months of amortization of the intangible assets acquired as part of the Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition from the date of acquisition through the end of the 2013 fiscal year.

Change in fair value of contingent consideration

19

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change			% Change
Change in fair value of contingent consideration	$	69	$	600	$	(531	)	(88.5	)%

Change in the fair value of contingent consideration reflects the current period impact of the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation associated with the Lilly Pulitzer acquisition, as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012. The decrease in change in fair value of contingent consideration in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to the significant increase in the fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 which resulted from our assessment of greater certainty that the full amount of the contingent consideration will be paid in the future. We anticipate that the charge for the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration for the full 2013 fiscal year will be $0.3 million.

Royalties and other operating income

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change		% Change
Royalties and other operating income	$	3,356	$	3,340	$	16	0.5	%

Royalties and other operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 primarily reflect income received from third parties from the licensing of our Tommy Bahama, Ben Sherman and Lilly Pulitzer brands, which were comparable on a consolidated basis to the royalties and other income recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 with higher royalty income in Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer being offset by a decrease in Ben Sherman royalty income.

Operating income, on a consolidated basis, was $27.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $20.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The 36.4% increase in operating income was primarily due to the higher operating income of Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer partially offset by the larger operating loss of Ben Sherman.  Changes in operating income by operating group are discussed below.

Tommy Bahama:

20

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013			Second Quarter Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Net sales	$	153,220		$	127,463		$	25,757	20.2	%
Gross margin	62.9		%	62.0		%
Operating income (loss)	$	23,838		$	16,581		$	7,257	43.8	%
Operating income as % of net sales	15.6		%	13.0		%
Inventory step-up charge included in Tommy Bahama	$	283		$	—
Amortization of intangible assets included in Tommy Bahama associated with Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition	$	333		$	—

The increase in operating income for Tommy Bahama was primarily due to the higher net sales and gross margin in the Tommy Bahama business, each as discussed above. The impact of the higher sales and gross margin were partially offset by higher SG&A and $0.6 million of charges in the aggregate related to an inventory step-up charge and amortization of intangible assets associated with Tommy Bahama Canada which was acquired in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The increased SG&A was primarily associated with (1) operating additional domestic and international retail stores and restaurants in fiscal 2013 which resulted in $8.2 million of incremental SG&A and (2) higher costs to support the growing Tommy Bahama business.

The second quarter of fiscal 2013 included an operating loss of $3.1 million related to our Tommy Bahama Asia-Pacific expansion compared to an operating loss of $2.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. We anticipate that as the year progresses the operating losses related to our Asia-Pacific operations will moderate as compared to the prior year; however, we believe that the operating loss for fiscal 2013 will be approximately $12 million. 

Lilly Pulitzer:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013			Second Quarter Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Net sales	$	38,164		$	30,903		$	7,261	23.5	%
Gross margin	64.3		%	65.7		%
Operating income	$	9,555		$	7,409		$	2,146	29.0	%
Operating income as % of net sales	25.0		%	24.0		%
Change in fair value of contingent consideration included in Lilly Pulitzer	$	69		$	600

The increase in operating income in Lilly Pulitzer for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to the higher net sales for Lilly Pulitzer, as discussed above. The second quarter of fiscal 2013 also benefited from a $0.5 million lower charge for the change in fair value of contingent consideration. The increased net sales and lower charge for the change in fair value of contingent consideration were partially offset by lower gross margin and increased SG&A. The increased SG&A was primarily associated with (1) higher costs, consisting primarily of employment expenses, to support the growing Lilly Pulitzer business and (2) $0.9 million of incremental SG&A associated with the cost of operating additional retail stores during fiscal 2013.

Lanier Clothes:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013			Second Quarter Fiscal 2012			$ Change			% Change
Net sales	$	22,315		$	24,808		$	(2,493	)	(10.0	)%
Gross margin	28.3		%	27.6		%
Operating income	$	2,026		$	2,397		$	(371	)	(15.5	)%
Operating income as % of net sales	9.1		%	9.7		%

21

The decrease in operating income for Lanier Clothes was primarily the result of the lower sales, as discussed above, partially offset by higher gross margin and slightly lower SG&A, in part due to lower royalty expense as a result of the lower branded sales.

Ben Sherman:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change		% Change
Net sales	16,275		20,101		(3,826	)	(19.0	)%
Gross margin	46.6	%	53.5	%
Operating loss	(3,841	)	(1,463	)	(2,378	)	(162.5	)%
Operating loss as % of net sales	(23.6	)%	(7.3	)%

The decline in operating results for Ben Sherman was primarily due to the decrease in sales and lower gross margin, each as discussed above, and lower royalty income. These factors that negatively impacted the operating results were partially offset by reduced SG&A in Ben Sherman during the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

Corporate and Other:

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013			Second Quarter Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Net sales	$	5,050		$	3,654		$	1,396	38.2	%
Operating loss	$	(3,866	)	$	(4,606	)	$	740	16.1	%
LIFO charges (credits) included in Corporate and Other	$	317		$	(258	)

The Corporate and Other operating results improved by $0.7 million from a loss of $4.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to a loss of $3.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The improvement in operating results was primarily due to (1) the higher sales and gross margin of the Oxford Golf business and Lyons, Georgia distribution center and (2) reduced SG&A in our corporate operations. These factors were partially offset by the impact of the $0.6 million net unfavorable impact of LIFO accounting between the two periods.

Interest expense, net

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change			% Change
Interest expense, net	$	1,042	$	3,314	$	(2,272	)	(68.6	)%

Interest expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased primarily due to our borrowing at lower interest rates in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012.  During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, substantially all of our borrowings were under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement, whereas substantially all of our borrowings in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 were from our previously outstanding senior notes, which had a coupon rate of 11 3/8%. The change in the source of our borrowings resulted from our redemption of the remaining outstanding principal amount of the senior notes in July 2012, which was primarily funded with borrowings under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. We anticipate that interest expense for fiscal 2013 will be slightly higher than $4.0 million.

Loss on repurchase of senior notes

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change			% Change
Loss on repurchase of senior notes	$	—	$	9,143	$	(9,143	)	(100.0	)%

On July 16, 2012, we redeemed the remaining outstanding $105.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 113/8% senior notes for approximately $111.0 million, plus accrued interest, using borrowings under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and cash on hand. The redemption of the 113/8% senior notes and related write-off of approximately $3.1 million of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount resulted in a loss of approximately $9.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

Income taxes

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012		$ Change	% Change
Income taxes	10,864		2,833		8,031	283.5	%
Effective tax rate	40.7	%	36.0	%

Income tax expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 increased compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 due to higher earnings and an increase in the effective tax rate. The projected effective tax rate for fiscal 2013 reflects the impact of foreign losses for which we do not expect to recognize an income tax benefit in fiscal 2013, whereas the effective tax rate in fiscal 2012 was not as unfavorably impacted by our foreign losses. The effective tax rate for each period was favorably impacted by a decrease in the enacted tax rate in the United Kingdom. We anticipate that our effective tax rate for the full year fiscal 2013 will be approximately 42%; however, the third quarter effective tax rate is expected to be higher than the effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and the fourth quarter effective tax rate is expected to be lower than the effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Our effective tax rate in future years will be dependent upon our ability to recognize an income tax benefit for foreign losses and the amount of taxable income (loss) in foreign jurisdictions in future years, among other factors.

Net earnings

	Second Quarter Fiscal 2013		Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
Net earnings	$	15,806	$	5,028
Net earnings per diluted share	$	0.96	$	0.30
Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted	16,423		16,570

The higher net earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to (1) an increase in net sales for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer, (2) the prior year including a loss on repurchase of senior notes of $9.1 million, (3) a $2.3 million reduction in interest expense and (4) a $0.5 million reduction in the charge for the change in fair value of contingent consideration. These factors were partially offset by (1) an increase in SG&A for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer related to the growth and expansion of those brands, (2) lower net sales for Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman, (3) a higher effective tax rate primarily due to our inability to recognize the income tax benefit of losses in foreign jurisdictions during fiscal 2013 and (4) $0.6 million of charges in the aggregate related to an inventory step-up charge and amortization of intangible assets associated with Tommy Bahama Canada.

Total net sales	$	469,227	$	437,882	$	31,345		7.2	%

Consolidated net sales increased $31.3 million, or 7.2%, in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012 primarily due to the increase in net sales at Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer, which were partially offset by decreased net sales at Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman, each as discussed below. Further, as direct to consumer sales grew at a faster rate than wholesales sales, during the first half of fiscal 2013, net sales in the direct to consumer channel of distribution represented a greater percentage of consolidated net sales as compared to the first half of fiscal 2012, as presented below:

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Full-price retail stores and outlets	41	%	37	%
E-commerce	11	%	9	%
Restaurant	7	%	7	%
Wholesale	41	%	47	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Tommy Bahama:

24

The Tommy Bahama sales increase of $35.0 million, or 13.0%, was primarily driven by (1) a 11.7% increase in comparable store sales, which includes full price retail stores and e-commerce sales, to $133.9 million in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to $119.9 million in the first half of fiscal 2012, (2) a net sales increase of $15.5 million associated with domestic retail stores and outlet stores opened during fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013, (3) a net sales increase associated with our Tommy Bahama operations in Australia, Asia and Canada of $7.5 million and (4) an increase in domestic restaurant sales. These increases in sales were partially offset by (1) a $3.3 million sales decrease in the wholesale business, which included a shift in the timing of shipments, in part due to the impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2012, which resulted in more spring 2013 product being shipped during fiscal 2012 as compared to the prior year and (2) lower sales in outlet stores that were opened prior to fiscal 2012. Tommy Bahama’s apparel unit sales increased by 9.0% due to the higher volume in the direct to consumer distribution channel, and the average selling price per apparel unit increased by 4.0% as sales in the direct to consumer channel of distribution, which generally have a higher sales price per unit than wholesale sales, represented a greater proportion of Tommy Bahama net sales in the first half of fiscal 2013. The following table presents the proportion of net sales by distribution channel for Tommy Bahama for each period presented:

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Full-price retail stores and outlets	50	%	47	%
E-commerce	12	%	10	%
Restaurant	11	%	11	%
Wholesale	27	%	32	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Lilly Pulitzer:

The Lilly Pulitzer sales increase of $11.1 million, or 16.6%, was primarily driven by (1) a net sales increase of $3.9 million associated with retail stores opened in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013, (2) a 11.5% increase in comparable store sales to $31.5 million in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to $28.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2012, (3) a wholesale sales increase of $3.2 million reflecting an increase in full-price and off-price wholesale sales and (4) higher warehouse sales in the first half of fiscal 2013. Lilly Pulitzer’s apparel unit sales increased by 11.2% while the average selling price per apparel unit increased by 5.2%. The increase in units sold was driven by increased units in all channels of distribution. The increased selling price per unit primarily resulted from a higher proportion of direct to consumer sales in the first half of fiscal 2013.  The following table presents the proportion of net sales by distribution channel for Lilly Pulitzer for each period presented:

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Full-price retail stores and warehouse sales	34	%	33	%
E-commerce	19	%	17	%
Wholesale	47	%	50	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Lanier Clothes:

The decrease in net sales for Lanier Clothes of $8.2 million, or 14.3%, was due to a decrease in sales in both the branded and private label distribution channels. The decrease in sales was primarily due to the timing of wholesale orders as some sales that have historically occurred in the first half shifted into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and others shifted into the third quarter of fiscal 2013, our exit from certain programs, and softness in in the suits' business of certain of our customers. These factors resulted in a 7.4% decrease in unit sales. A decrease in average selling price per unit of 7.4% was primarily due to a change in product mix, with private label sales representing a larger proportion of net sales, as well as continued pricing pressures in the tailored clothing business.

Ben Sherman:

Net sales for Ben Sherman decreased by $8.9 million, or 23.9%, in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012, due to an $8.9 million decline in wholesale sales, with direct to consumer net sales generally being comparable between the two periods as sales at the additional retail stores operated in the first half of fiscal 2013 offset

25

comparable store sales decreases. The decrease in net sales for Ben Sherman was primarily driven by a reduction in unit volume of 27.1% primarily attributable to (1) our exit from certain wholesale accounts in the United Kingdom and the United States, (2)  certain wholesale sales shifting from the second quarter of fiscal 2013 to the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and (3) the difficult economic conditions that persist in the United Kingdom and Europe. The direct to consumer operations of Ben Sherman continued to be negatively impacted by the missteps in Ben Sherman’s merchandise assortment planning that began in the second half of fiscal 2012, and, particularly in the current economic environment, resulted in too much product offering in styles at the higher end of the price range, which gave rise to more promotions in our retail stores in order to sell inventory on hand.

The reduction in units sold was partially offset by an increase in the average selling price per unit of 4.5%. The increase in average selling price per unit reflects a greater proportion of Ben Sherman’s sales being direct to consumer sales. The change in sales mix that positively impacted average selling price per unit was partially offset by a 3.5% unfavorable foreign currency translation change in the average exchange rates between the two periods. The following table presents the proportion of net sales by distribution channel for Ben Sherman for each period presented:

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Wholesale	52	%	63	%
Direct to consumer	48	%	37	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Corporate and Other:

Corporate and Other net sales primarily consisted of the net sales of our Oxford Golf business and our Lyons, Georgia distribution center. The increase in the net sales of $2.4 million for Corporate and Other was primarily driven by higher net sales in our Oxford Golf business during the first half of fiscal 2013.

Gross Profit

The table below presents gross profit by operating group and in total for the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012 as well as the change between those two periods. Our gross profit and gross margin, which is calculated as gross profit divided by net sales, may not be directly comparable to those of our competitors, as statement of operations classification of certain expenses may vary by company.

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change			% Change
Tommy Bahama	$	189,579	$	165,097		$	24,482		14.8	%
Lilly Pulitzer	49,452		43,397			6,055			14.0	%
Lanier Clothes	14,257		16,895			(2,638		)	(15.6	)%
Ben Sherman	13,896		19,750			(5,854		)	(29.6	)%
Corporate and Other	3,740		2,355			1,385			58.8	%
Total gross profit	$	270,924	$	247,494		$	23,430		9.5	%
LIFO charges (credits) included in Corporate and Other	$	345	$	(35	)
Inventory step-up charge included in Tommy Bahama	$	283	$	—

The increase in consolidated gross profit was primarily due to higher net sales in Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer partially offset by the lower sales in Ben Sherman and Lanier Clothes, each as discussed above. In addition to the impact of changes in net sales, gross profit on a consolidated basis and for each operating group was also impacted by the changes in gross margin by operating group, as discussed below. The table below presents gross margin by operating group and in total for the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012.

26

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Tommy Bahama	62.4	%	61.5	%
Lilly Pulitzer	63.7	%	65.2	%
Lanier Clothes	28.8	%	29.2	%
Ben Sherman	48.7	%	52.7	%
Corporate and Other	37.8	%	31.5	%
Consolidated gross margin	57.7	%	56.5	%

On a consolidated basis, the increase in gross margins from the first half of fiscal 2012 to the first half of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to a change in the sales mix. The change in sales mix in the first half of fiscal 2013 included (1) Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer, which typically have higher gross margins than our other operating groups, representing a greater proportion of our consolidated net sales and (2) direct to consumer sales, which generally have higher gross margins than wholesale sales, making up a larger proportion of the Tommy Bahama, Lilly Pulitzer and Ben Sherman sales. These items, which positively impacted gross margins, were partially offset by the negative impact of more significant off-price sales and promotions at Ben Sherman during the first half of fiscal 2013.

The higher gross margin at Tommy Bahama was primarily due to the change in the proportion of sales in each distribution channel as sales in the direct to consumer distribution channel, which typically have higher gross margins than the wholesale distribution channel, represented a greater proportion of Tommy Bahama’s net sales in the first half of fiscal 2013. This change in sales mix offset the negative impact of $0.3 million of purchase accounting charges related to the Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition recognized in cost of goods sold in the first half of fiscal 2013. We anticipate that we will incur a charge for inventory step-up in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 of approximately $0.4 million and do not anticipate any charges for inventory step-up beyond the third quarter of fiscal 2013 related to this acquisition.

The decrease in gross margin for Lilly Pulitzer from the first half of fiscal 2012 to the first half of fiscal 2013 was primarily driven by (1) a change in sales mix with sportswear, licensed products and accessories, which generally have lower gross margins, representing a greater proportion of Lilly Pulitzer sales in the first half of fiscal 2013, (2) our retail store operations being more promotional than the prior year and a larger warehouse sale in the first half of fiscal 2013 in order to move a greater amount of excess spring inventory and (3) our e-commerce operations offering free shipping on a more frequent basis. The negative gross margin impact of these factors exceeded the positive impact of the change in sales mix towards direct to consumer sales.

The decrease in gross margin at Lanier Clothes was primarily the result of continuing gross margin pressures, including both competitive factors and higher product costs that continue to impact the tailored clothing business as well as a change in product mix.

The decrease in gross margin at Ben Sherman reflects (1) a higher proportion of off-price sales, (2) heavier promotions in the direct to consumer business and (3) the competitive factors resulting from the difficult economic conditions that persist in the United Kingdom and Europe. The heavier promotions and the higher proportion of off-price sales, which were necessary to appropriately manage inventory levels, primarily resulted from the merchandising misstep in the second half of fiscal 2012, the impact of the economic environment and disposal of certain excess inventory in the United Kingdom prior to switching from one third-party distribution center to another third-party distribution center. These negative factors offset the positive gross margin impact of the change in the sales mix with direct to consumer sales representing a larger proportion of Ben Sherman sales in the first half of fiscal 2013.

The gross profit in Corporate and Other in each period primarily reflects the impact on gross profit of our Oxford Golf and Lyons, Georgia distribution center operations offset by the impact of LIFO accounting adjustments. The increase in the gross profit for Corporate and Other was primarily due to higher sales and higher gross margins in Oxford Golf in the first half of fiscal 2013. The LIFO accounting charge was $0.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to a modest LIFO credit in the first half of fiscal 2012.

SG&A

SG&A	$	225,449		$	201,510		$	23,939	11.9	%
SG&A (as % of net sales)	48.0		%	46.0		%
Amortization of intangible assets included in Tommy Bahama associated with Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition	$	333		$	—

The increase in SG&A was primarily due to (1) $18.5 million of incremental SG&A in the first half of fiscal 2013 associated with operating additional Tommy Bahama retail stores and restaurants and Lilly Pulitzer stores and (2) higher costs, consisting primarily of employment expenses, to support the growing Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer businesses. The incremental SG&A costs of operating additional Tommy Bahama retail stores and restaurants include incremental costs associated with domestic, Asia-Pacific and Canadian locations. The increases in SG&A for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer were partially offset by SG&A reductions in Ben Sherman, Lanier Clothes and Corporate and Other.

SG&A included $0.8 million of amortization of intangible assets in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to $0.5 million in the first half of fiscal 2012 with the increase being amortization associated with the intangible assets acquired as part of the Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition. We anticipate that amortization of intangible assets for fiscal 2013 will be approximately $1.8 million, with approximately $1.0 million of the amortization reflecting nine months of amortization of the intangible assets acquired as part of the Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition from the date of acquisition through the end of the 2013 fiscal year.

Change in fair value of contingent consideration

Change in fair value of contingent consideration	$	138	$	1,200	$	(1,062	)	(88.5	)%

Change in the fair value of contingent consideration reflects the current period impact of the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation associated with the Lilly Pulitzer acquisition, as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012. The decrease in change in fair value of contingent consideration in the first half of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to the significant increase in the fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, which resulted from our assessment of greater certainty that the full amount of the contingent consideration will be paid in the future. We anticipate that the charge for the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration for the full 2013 fiscal year will be $0.3 million.

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012		$ Change		% Change
Royalties and other operating income	$	8,436	$	8,322	$	114	1.4	%

Royalties and other operating income in the first half of fiscal 2013 primarily reflect income received from third parties from the licensing of our Tommy Bahama, Ben Sherman and Lilly Pulitzer brands, which were comparable on a consolidated basis to the royalty income recognized in the first half of fiscal 2012 with higher royalty income in Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer being offset by a decrease in Ben Sherman royalty income.

Operating income, on a consolidated basis, was $53.8 million in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to $53.1 million in the first half of fiscal 2012. The 1.3% increase in operating income was primarily due to the improved operating results of Tommy Bahama, Lilly Pulitzer and Corporate and Other, partially offset by the lower operating results of Ben Sherman and Lanier Clothes.  Changes in operating income by operating group are discussed below.

Tommy Bahama:

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Net sales	$	303,646		$	268,597		$	35,049	13.0	%
Gross margin	62.4		%	61.5		%
Operating income	$	45,219		$	42,145		$	3,074	7.3	%
Operating income as % of net sales	14.9		%	15.7		%
Inventory step-up charge included in Tommy Bahama	$	283		$	—
Amortization of intangible assets included in Tommy Bahama associated with Tommy Bahama Canada acquisition	$	333		$	—

The increase in operating income for Tommy Bahama was primarily due to the higher net sales and gross margin in the Tommy Bahama business, each as discussed above. The impact of the higher sales and gross margin were partially offset by higher SG&A and $0.6 million of charges in the aggregate related to an inventory step-up charge and amortization of intangible assets associated with Tommy Bahama Canada, which was acquired in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The increased SG&A was primarily associated with (1) operating additional domestic and international retail stores and restaurants in fiscal 2013 which resulted in $16.8 million of incremental SG&A and (2) higher costs, consisting primarily of employment expenses, to support the growing Tommy Bahama business.

The first half of fiscal 2013 included an operating loss of $7.4 million related to our Tommy Bahama Asia-Pacific expansion compared to an operating loss of $4.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2012. We anticipate that as the year progresses the operating losses related to our Asia-Pacific operations will moderate as compared to the prior year; however, we believe that the operating loss for fiscal 2013 will be approximately $12 million. 

Lilly Pulitzer:

29

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Net sales	$	77,613		$	66,536		$	11,077	16.6	%
Gross margin	63.7		%	65.2		%
Operating income	$	20,588		$	18,421		$	2,167	11.8	%
Operating income as % of net sales	26.5		%	27.7		%
Change in fair value of contingent consideration included in Lilly Pulitzer	$	138		$	1,200

The increase in operating income for Lilly Pulitzer for the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012 operating income was primarily due to the higher net sales for Lilly Pulitzer, as discussed above. The first half of fiscal 2013 also benefited from a $1.1 million lower charge for the change in fair value of contingent consideration. The increased net sales and lower charge for the change in fair value of contingent consideration were partially offset by lower gross margin and increased SG&A. The increased SG&A was primarily associated with (1) higher costs, consisting primarily of employment expenses, to support the growing Lilly Pulitzer business and (2) $1.7 million of incremental SG&A associated with the cost of operating additional retail stores during fiscal 2013.

Lanier Clothes:

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change			% Change
Net sales	$	49,575		$	57,815		$	(8,240	)	(14.3	)%
Gross margin	28.8		%	29.2		%
Operating income	$	4,487		$	6,443		$	(1,956	)	(30.4	)%
Operating income as % of net sales	9.1		%	11.1		%

The decrease in operating income for Lanier Clothes was primarily the result of the lower sales and gross margins, each as discussed above, partially offset by lower SG&A in part due to lower royalty expense as a result of the lower branded sales.

Ben Sherman:

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change			% Change
Net sales	$	28,511		$	37,453		$	(8,942	)	(23.9	)%
Gross margin	48.7		%	52.7		%
Operating loss	$	(8,665	)	$	(4,203	)	$	(4,462	)	(106.2	)%
Operating loss as % of net sales	(30.4		)%	(11.2		)%

The decline in operating results for Ben Sherman was primarily due to the decrease in sales and lower gross margin, each as discussed above, and lower royalty income. These factors that negatively impacted the operating results were partially offset by reduced SG&A in Ben Sherman in the first half of fiscal 2013.

Corporate and Other:

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Net sales	$	9,882		$	7,481		$	2,401	32.1	%
Operating loss	$	(7,856	)	$	(9,700	)	$	1,844	19.0	%
LIFO charges (credits) included in Corporate and Other	$	345		$	(35	)

30

The Corporate and Other operating results improved by $1.8 million from a loss of $9.7 million in the first half of fiscal 2012 to a loss of $7.9 million in the first half of fiscal 2013. The improvement in operating results was primarily due to (1) the higher sales and higher gross margins of Oxford Golf business and the Lyons, Georgia distribution center and (2) reduced SG&A in our corporate operations. These favorable items were partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in the net charge from LIFO accounting.

Interest expense, net

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012		$ Change			% Change
Interest expense, net	$	1,978	$	6,917	$	(4,939	)	(71.4	)%

Interest expense for the first half of fiscal 2013 decreased primarily due to our borrowing at lower interest rates in the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012.  During the first half of fiscal 2013, substantially all of our borrowings were under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement, whereas substantially all of our borrowings in the first half of fiscal 2012 were from our previously outstanding senior notes, which had a coupon rate of 113/8%. The change in the source of our borrowings resulted from our redemption of the remaining outstanding principal amount of the senior notes in July 2012, which was primarily funded with borrowings under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. We anticipate that interest expense for fiscal 2013 will be slightly higher than $4.0 million.

Loss on repurchase of senior notes

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012		$ Change			% Change
Loss on repurchase of senior notes	$	—	$	9,143	$	(9,143	)	(100.0	)%

On July 16, 2012, we redeemed the remaining outstanding $105.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 11 3/8% senior notes for approximately $111.0 million, plus accrued interest, using borrowings under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and cash on hand. The redemption of the 113/8% senior notes and related write-off of approximately $3.1 million of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount resulted in a loss of approximately $9.1 million.

Income taxes

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012			$ Change		% Change
Income taxes	$	22,366		$	14,016		$	8,350	59.6	%
Effective tax rate	43.2		%	37.8		%

Income tax expense for the first half of fiscal 2013 increased compared to the first half of fiscal 2012 due to higher earnings and an increase in the effective tax rate. The projected effective tax rate for fiscal 2013 reflects the impact of foreign losses for which we do not expect to recognize an income tax benefit in fiscal 2013, whereas the effective tax rate in fiscal 2012 was not as unfavorably impacted by our foreign losses. The effective tax rate for each period was favorably impacted by a decrease in the enacted tax rate in the United Kingdom. We anticipate that our effective tax rate for the full year fiscal 2013 will be approximately 42%; however, the third quarter effective tax rate is expected to be higher than the effective tax rate for the first half of fiscal 2013 and the fourth quarter effective tax rate is expected to be lower than the effective tax rate for the first half of fiscal 2013. Our effective tax rate in future years will be dependent upon our ability to recognize an income tax benefit for foreign losses and the amount of taxable income (loss) in foreign jurisdictions in future years, among other factors.

Net earnings

31

	First Half Fiscal 2013		First Half Fiscal 2012
Net earnings	$	29,429	$	23,030
Net earnings per diluted share	$	1.78	$	1.39
Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted	16,520		16,561

The higher net earnings for the first half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to (1) the first half of fiscal 2012 including a loss on repurchase of senior notes of $9.1 million, (2) a $4.9 million reduction in interest expense, (3) an increase in net sales for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer and (4) a $1.1 million reduction in the change in fair value of contingent consideration. These factors were partially offset by (1) an increase in SG&A for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer related to the growth and expansion of those brands, (2) lower net sales and operating results for Lanier Clothes and Ben Sherman, (3) a higher effective tax rate due to our inability to recognize the income tax benefit of losses in foreign jurisdictions in fiscal 2013 and (4) $0.6 million of charges in the aggregate related to an inventory step-up charge and amortization of intangible assets associated with Tommy Bahama Canada.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary source of revenue and cash flow is our distribution of apparel products through our direct to consumer and wholesale channels of distribution. Our primary uses of cash flow include the acquisition of apparel products in the operation of our business, as well as employee compensation and benefits, occupancy costs, marketing and advertising costs, other general and administrative operating expenses, funding of capital expenditures for retail stores and information technology initiatives, payment of quarterly dividends, periodic interest payments related to our financing arrangements and repayment of indebtedness. As we purchase products for sale prior to selling the products to our customers in both our direct to consumer and wholesale operations, in the ordinary course of business, we maintain certain levels of inventory and we also extend credit to our wholesale customers. These factors impact our working capital levels. If cash inflows are less than cash outflows, we have access to amounts under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement, subject to their terms, each of which is described below. We may seek to finance future capital investment programs through various methods, including, but not limited to, cash on hand, cash flow from operations, borrowings under our current or additional credit facilities and sales of debt or equity securities.

As of August 3, 2013, we had $9.7 million of cash on hand, with $125.4 million of borrowings outstanding and $86.4 million of availability under our revolving credit agreements. We believe our balance sheet and anticipated positive cash flows from operating activities in the future provides us with ample opportunity to continue to invest in our brands and our direct to consumer initiatives in future periods.

Key Liquidity Measures

($ in thousands)	August 3, 2013			February 2, 2013			July 28, 2012			January 28, 2012
Total current assets	$	216,363		$	222,390		$	193,386		$	214,070
Total current liabilities	109,159			124,266			101,566			117,554
Working capital	$	107,204		$	98,124		$	91,820		$	96,516
Working capital ratio	1.98			1.79			1.90			1.82
Debt to total capital ratio	34		%	34		%	31		%	34		%

Our working capital ratio is calculated by dividing total current assets by total current liabilities. Current assets increased from July 28, 2012 to August 3, 2013 primarily due to higher inventories and cash levels. Current liabilities increased as a result of (1) being in an income tax payable position as of August 3, 2013 as compared to a prepaid tax position as of July 28, 2012, (2) higher payables and accrued expenses primarily related to the higher inventory levels as of August 3, 2013 and (3) the classification of $2.5 million of the contingent consideration obligation as a current liability as of August 3, 2013, with no such amounts being classified as a current liability as of July 28, 2012. The more significant increase in current assets as compared to current liabilities resulted in a higher working capital ratio as of August 3, 2013.

For the ratio of debt to total capital, debt is defined as short-term and long-term debt, and total capital is defined as debt plus shareholders’ equity. Debt was $125.4 million at August 3, 2013 and $101.0 million at July 28, 2012, while

32

shareholders’ equity was $247.3 million at August 3, 2013 and $225.6 million at July 28, 2012. The higher debt to total capital ratio at August 3, 2013 as compared to July 28, 2012 is primarily due to the higher debt levels at August 3, 2013. The increase in debt was primarily due to the following items occurring subsequent to July 28, 2012: (1) $59.5 million of capital expenditures, (2) the use of $17.9 million of cash related to the acquisition of our former licensee’s Tommy Bahama operations in Canada, (3) $11.0 million of dividends paid on our common stock and (4) $2.5 million of payments related to the Lilly Pulitzer contingent consideration arrangement, which in the aggregate exceeded the $76.6 million of cash flows from operations for the period from July 28, 2012 through August 3, 2013. Our debt levels and ratio of debt to total capital in future periods may not be comparable to historical amounts as we continue to assess, and possibly make changes to, our capital structure. Changes in our capital structure in the future, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Balance Sheet

The following tables set forth certain information included in our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands). Below each table are explanations for any significant changes in the balances from July 28, 2012 to August 3, 2013.

Current Assets:

	August 3, 2013		February 2, 2013		July 28, 2012		January 28, 2012
Cash and cash equivalents	$	9,705	$	7,517	$	4,561	$	13,373
Receivables, net	62,082		62,805		61,833		59,706
Inventories, net	101,920		109,605		88,382		103,420
Prepaid expenses, net	21,853		19,511		18,907		17,838
Deferred tax assets	20,803		22,952		19,703		19,733
Total current assets	$	216,363	$	222,390	$	193,386	$	214,070

Cash and cash equivalents as of August 3, 2013 and July 28, 2012 include typical cash amounts maintained on an ongoing basis in our operations, which generally ranges from $5 million to $10 million at any given time. Any excess cash generally is used to repay amounts outstanding under our revolving credit agreements. Inventories, net as of August 3, 2013 increased from July 28, 2012 primarily to support anticipated sales growth and additional retail stores for Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer, while inventory levels at Lanier Clothes decreased from July 28, 2012. The increase in prepaid expenses, net at August 3, 2013 from July 28, 2012 was primarily due to the timing of payment and recognition of the related expense for certain prepaid items, including product samples, rent, supplies, packaging, insurance and advertising. The increases in these prepaid expenses were partially offset by a reduction in prepaid tax expense from July 28, 2012 as we were in a tax payable position as of August 3, 2013. Deferred tax assets increased from July 28, 2012 primarily as a result of the change in timing differences associated with inventory, which were partially offset by reductions in deferred tax assets associated with accrued compensation.

Non-current Assets:

	August 3, 2013		February 2, 2013		July 28, 2012		January 28, 2012
Property and equipment, net	$	140,885	$	128,882	$	109,500	$	93,206
Intangible assets, net	170,250		164,317		164,682		165,193
Goodwill	20,919		17,275		17,277		16,495
Other non-current assets, net	22,892		23,206		22,252		20,243
Total non-current assets	$	354,946	$	333,680	$	313,711	$	295,137

The increase in property and equipment, net at August 3, 2013 was primarily due to the capital expenditures subsequent to July 28, 2012, which were partially offset by depreciation expense during that same period. The increase in intangible assets, net at August 3, 2013 was primarily due to the intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition of the Tommy Bahama business in Canada from our former licensee, which was partially offset by amortization of intangible assets associated with Tommy Bahama, Lilly Pulitzer and Ben Sherman subsequent to July 28, 2012 and a change in foreign currency

33

exchange rates. The increase in goodwill from July 28, 2012 was primarily related to the goodwill associated with our acquisition of the Tommy Bahama business in Canada in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The increase in other non-current assets at August 3, 2013 was primarily due to higher asset balances set aside for potential deferred compensation obligations, partially offset by a reduction in deferred financing costs as a result of amortization of deferred financing costs subsequent to July 28, 2012.

Liabilities:

	August 3, 2013		February 2, 2013		July 28, 2012		January 28, 2012
Total current liabilities	$	109,159	$	124,266	$	101,566	$	117,554
Long-term debt	119,527		108,552		95,249		103,405
Non-current contingent consideration	12,088		14,450		11,845		10,645
Other non-current liabilities	48,607		44,572		41,574		38,652
Non-current deferred income taxes	34,674		34,385		31,281		34,882
Total liabilities	$	324,055	$	326,225	$	281,515	$	305,138

Current liabilities at August 3, 2013 increased as compared to July 28, 2012 as a result of (1) being in an income tax payable position as of August 3, 2013 as compared to a prepaid tax position as of July 28, 2012, (2) higher payables and other accrued expenses primarily related to the higher inventory levels as of August 3, 2013 and (3) the classification of $2.5 million of the contingent consideration obligation as a current liability as of August 3, 2013, with no such amounts classified as a current liability as of July 28, 2012. These increases in current liabilities were partially offset by a reduction in accrued compensation at August 3, 2013 compared to July 28, 2012. The increase in debt at August 3, 2013 compared to July 28, 2012 was primarily due to the following items occurring subsequent to July 28, 2012: (1) $59.5 million of capital expenditures, (2) the use of $17.9 million of cash related to the acquisition of our former licensee’s Tommy Bahama operations in Canada, (3) $11.0 million of dividends paid on our common stock and (4) $2.5 million of payments related to the Lilly Pulitzer contingent consideration arrangement, which in the aggregate exceeded the $76.6 million of cash flows from operations for the period from July 28, 2012 through August 3, 2013.

The increase in non-current contingent consideration from July 28, 2012 was primarily due to adjustments to fair value recognized in our consolidated statement of earnings subsequent to July 28, 2012, which were partially offset by the payment of the fiscal 2012 contingent consideration obligation of $2.5 million during fiscal 2012 and the classification of $2.5 million of the contingent consideration obligation as a current liability as of August 3, 2013. Other non-current liabilities increased as of August 3, 2013 compared to July 28, 2012 primarily due to increases in deferred rent and deferred compensation liabilities partially offset by a $2.2 million reduction in reserves for uncertain tax positions. Non-current deferred income taxes increased from July 28, 2012 to August 3, 2013 primarily as a result of the change in timing differences associated with depreciation, partially offset by a change in the book to tax differences related to deferred rent and contingent consideration liabilities, a change in the expected effective tax rate to be realized upon the reversal of timing differences due to a change in an enacted tax rate in fiscal 2013, and the fourth quarter fiscal 2012 change in assertion regarding the permanent reinvestment of foreign earnings.

Statement of Cash Flows

The following table sets forth the net cash flows for the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012 (in thousands):

	First Half Fiscal 2013			First Half Fiscal 2012
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	49,184		$	39,991
Net cash used in investing activities	(43,908		)	(28,947		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(3,033		)	(19,946		)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	2,243		$	(8,902	)

34

Cash and cash equivalents on hand was $9.7 million and $4.6 million at August 3, 2013 and July 28, 2012, respectively. Changes in cash flows in the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012 related to operating activities, investing activities and financing activities are discussed below.

Operating Activities:

In the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012, operating activities provided $49.2 million and $40.0 million of cash, respectively. The cash flow from operating activities was primarily the result of net earnings for the relevant period adjusted, as applicable, for non-cash activities such as depreciation, amortization, stock compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, loss on repurchase of senior notes and the net impact of changes in our working capital accounts. The higher cash flow from operating activities for the first half of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to the higher net earnings and a more favorable change in working capital accounts in the first half of fiscal 2013, both as compared to the same period in the prior year. In the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012, the more significant changes in working capital were a decrease in current liabilities, which decreased cash, partially offset by a decrease in inventories.

Investing Activities:

During the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012, investing activities used $43.9 million and $28.9 million of cash, respectively. The cash used in investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2013 included approximately $17.9 million related to our acquisition of the Tommy Bahama business in Canada from our former licensee, while the first half of fiscal 2012 included approximately $1.7 million related to our acquisition of the Tommy Bahama business in Australia from our former licensee. The remaining $26.0 million and $27.3 million of cash flow used in investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012, respectively, were for the capital expenditures in each period primarily related to costs associated with new retail stores, information technology initiatives and retail store and restaurant remodeling.

Financing Activities:

During the first half of fiscal 2013 and the first half of fiscal 2012, financing activities used $3.0 million and $19.9 million of cash, respectively. In the first half of fiscal 2013, we increased debt by $9.2 million based on our cash needs for investing activities, repurchase of shares and dividends paid exceeding our cash flow from operations and proceeds from the issuance of stock. In the first half of fiscal 2012, we reduced debt by $12.5 million based on our cash flow from operations and proceeds from the issuance of stock exceeding our cash needs for investing activities, dividends paid and payment of financing costs. The repurchase of common stock in the first half of fiscal 2013 primarily resulted from the vesting of restricted stock awards that were returned by employees to satisfy the employee income tax obligation, while the proceeds from issuance of common stock primarily resulted from the excess tax benefit associated with the vesting of the restricted stock awards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The table below sets forth amounts outstanding under our financing arrangements (in thousands) as of August 3, 2013:

$235 million U.S. Secured Revolving Credit Facility (“U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement”)	$	119,527
£7 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (“U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement”)	5,885
Total debt	125,412
Less: short-term debt	5,885
Long-term debt	$	119,527

The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement generally (i) is limited to a borrowing base consisting of specified percentages of eligible categories of assets; (ii) accrues variable-rate interest, unused line fees and letter of credit fees based upon a pricing grid which is tied to average unused availability and/or utilization; (iii) requires periodic interest payments with principal due at maturity (June 2017); and (iv) is generally secured by a first priority security interest in the accounts receivable, inventory, general intangibles and eligible trademarks, investment property (including the equity interests of certain subsidiaries), deposit accounts, intercompany obligations, equipment, goods, documents, contracts, books and records and other personal property of Oxford Industries, Inc. and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries.

The U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement generally (i) accrues interest at the bank’s base rate plus an applicable margin; (ii) requires interest payments monthly with principal payable on demand; and (iii) is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of our United Kingdom Ben Sherman subsidiaries.

To the extent cash flow needs exceed cash flow provided by our operations we will have access, subject to their terms, to our lines of credit to provide funding for operating activities, capital expenditures and acquisitions, if any. Our credit facilities are also used to finance trade letters of credit for product purchases, which are drawn against our lines of credit at the time of shipment of the products and reduce the amounts available under our lines of credit and borrowing capacity under our credit facilities when issued. As of August 3, 2013, $7.8 million of trade letters of credit and other limitations on availability in the aggregate were outstanding against our credit facilities. After considering these limitations and the amount of eligible assets in our borrowing base, as applicable, as of August 3, 2013, we had $85.0 million and $1.3 million in unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and the U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement, respectively, subject to the respective limitations on borrowings set forth in the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and the U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement.

Covenants and Other Restrictions:

Our credit facilities, consisting of our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and our U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement, are subject to a number of affirmative covenants regarding the delivery of financial information, compliance with law, maintenance of property, insurance and conduct of business. Also, our credit facilities are subject to certain negative covenants or other restrictions including, among other things, limitations on our ability to (i) incur debt, (ii) guaranty certain obligations, (iii) incur liens, (iv) pay dividends to shareholders, (v) repurchase shares of our common stock, (vi) make investments, (vii) sell assets or stock of subsidiaries, (viii) acquire assets or businesses, (ix) merge or consolidate with other companies, or (x) prepay, retire, repurchase or redeem debt.

Our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant that applies if unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement for three consecutive days is less than the greater of (i) $23.5 million or (ii) 10% of the total revolving commitments. In such case, our fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement must not be less than 1.0 to 1.0 for the immediately preceding 12 fiscal months for which financial statements have been delivered. This financial covenant continues to apply until we have maintained unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement of more than the greater of (i) $23.5 million or (ii) 10% of the total revolving commitments for 30 consecutive days.

We believe that the affirmative covenants, negative covenants, financial covenants and other restrictions under our credit facilities are customary for those included in similar facilities entered into at the time we entered into our agreements. During the first half of fiscal 2013 and as of August 3, 2013, no financial covenant testing was required pursuant to our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement as the minimum availability threshold was met at all times. As of August 3, 2013, we were compliant with all covenants related to our credit facilities.

Other Liquidity Items:

We anticipate that we will be able to satisfy our ongoing cash requirements, which generally consist of working capital and other operating activity needs, capital expenditures, interest payments on our debt and dividends, if any, primarily from positive cash flow from operations supplemented by borrowings under our lines of credit, if necessary. Our need for working capital is typically seasonal with the greatest requirements generally existing in the fall and spring of each year. Our capital needs will depend on many factors including our growth rate, the need to finance inventory levels and the success of our various products. We anticipate that at the maturity of any of our financing arrangements or as otherwise deemed appropriate, we will be able to refinance the facilities and debt with terms available in the market at that time, which may or may not be as favorable as the terms of the current agreements or current market terms.

Our contractual obligations as of August 3, 2013 have not changed significantly from the contractual obligations outstanding at February 2, 2013, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012 filed with the SEC, other than changes in the amounts outstanding under our revolving credit agreements, as discussed above.

Our anticipated capital expenditures for fiscal 2013, including the $26.0 million incurred in the first half of fiscal 2013, are expected to be approximately $45 million compared to $60.7 million for the full year of fiscal 2012. These expenditures are expected to consist primarily of costs associated with new retail stores, retail store and restaurant remodeling and information technology initiatives, including e-commerce enhancements.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into agreements which meet the SEC’s definition of an off balance sheet financing arrangement, other than operating leases, and have made no financial commitments to or guarantees with respect to any unconsolidated subsidiaries or special purpose entities.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to receivables, inventories, goodwill, intangible assets, income taxes, contingencies and other accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that we have appropriately applied our critical accounting policies. However, in the event that inappropriate assumptions or methods were used relating to the critical accounting policies below, our consolidated statements of earnings could be misstated. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012. There have not been any significant changes to the application of our critical accounting policies and estimates during the first half of fiscal 2013.

A detailed summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012.

SEASONAL ASPECTS OF OUR BUSINESS

Each of our operating groups is impacted by seasonality as the demand by specific product or style, as well as by distribution channel, may vary significantly depending on the time of year. For details of the impact of seasonality on each of our operating groups, see the business discussion under the caption “Seasonal Aspects of Business” for each operating group discussed in Part I, Item 1, Business in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012. The following table presents our percentage of net sales and operating income by quarter for fiscal 2012:

	First Quarter		Second Quarter		Third Quarter		Fourth Quarter
Net sales	27	%	24	%	21	%	28	%
Operating income (1)	48	%	29	%	9	%	14	%

     (1) The fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 operating income included a $4.5 million LIFO accounting charge. Additionally, the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 included a charge of $4.5 million for the change in fair value of contingent consideration whereas the first three quarters of fiscal 2012 included a $0.6 million charge for the change in fair value of contingent consideration. These items resulted in the percentage of operating income in the fourth quarter being lower and the first three quarters being higher than if these charges did not occur in the fourth quarter.

We anticipate that as our retail store operations increase in the future, the third quarter will continue to be our lowest net sales and operating income quarter and the percentage of the full year net sales and operating income generated in the third quarter will continue to decrease. As the timing of certain unusual or non-recurring items, economic conditions, wholesale product shipments or other factors affecting our business may vary from one year to the next, we do not believe that net sales or operating income for any particular quarter or the distribution of net sales and operating income for fiscal 2012 are necessarily indicative of anticipated results for the full fiscal year or expected distribution in future years.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain interest rate, foreign currency, commodity and inflation risks as discussed in Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012. There have not been any significant changes in our exposure to these risks during the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure

37

controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and then communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to litigation or claims. We are not currently a party to any litigation or regulatory action that we believe could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, investors should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012 are not the only risks facing our company.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

(a)During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we did not make any unregistered sales of our equity securities.

(c)We have certain stock incentive plans as described in Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012, all of which are publicly announced plans. Under the plans, we can repurchase shares from employees to cover employee tax liabilities related to the vesting of previously restricted shares and plan participants may also exercise stock options by surrendering already owned shares of common stock in satisfaction of employee tax liabilities and the exercise price. During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the following shares were surrendered pursuant to these plans in connection with the exercise of stock options:

Fiscal Month	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs	Maximum Number of Shares That May Yet be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs
May (05/5/13 - 06/1/13)	—	—		—	—
June (06/2/13 - 7/6/13)	—	—		—	—
July (7/7/13 - 8/3/13)	9,141	$	61.54	—	—
Total	9,141	$	61.54	—	—

In fiscal 2012, our Board of Directors authorized us to spend up to $50 million to repurchase shares of our common stock. This authorization superseded and replaced all previous authorizations to repurchase shares of our common stock and has no automatic expiration. As of August 3, 2013, no shares of our common stock had been repurchased pursuant to this authorization.
