CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Our Securities and Exchange Commission 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 general and regional economic conditions, including those that affect consumer demand and spending, demand for our products, timing of shipments requested by our wholesale customers, expected pricing levels, competitive conditions, the timing and cost of planned capital expenditures, expected synergies in connection with acquisitions and joint ventures, costs of products and raw materials we purchase, expected outcomes of pending or potential litigation and regulatory actions, and disciplined execution by key management. 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 Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008, 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 Securities and Exchange Commission.
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 UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2008
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2008
1. | Basis of Presentation:The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 date and for the periods presented. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for our fiscal year primarily due to the impact of the restructuring charges and other unusual items described in note 6 and the seasonality of our business. The accounting policies applied during the interim periods presented are consistent with the significant accounting policies as described in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008. |
Recently Adopted Standards
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). In February 2008, the FASB released FASB Staff Position 157-2 “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, which delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). We adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities during the first quarter of fiscal 2008. SFAS 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value measurements for assets and liabilities which are required or permitted to be recorded at fair value under another standard and does not extend the use of fair value beyond what is currently required or permitted by other standards. SFAS 157 also requires additional disclosures about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. The adoption of SFAS 157 for our financial assets and liabilities in fiscal 2008 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We are still in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 157 will have on our non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities upon adoption in fiscal 2009.
SFAS 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires that we maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
• | Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | ||
• | Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. | ||
• | Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, which includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. |

Table of Contents
We have determined that approximately $3.0 million of forward foreign currency exchange contracts are the only financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value within the scope of SFAS 157 that are included in our consolidated financial statements as of August 2, 2008. The fair value of the forward foreign exchange contracts, which is included in prepaid expenses in our consolidated financial statements, is based on dealer quotes of market forward rates and reflects the amount that we would receive or pay at the short-term maturity dates for contracts involving the same currencies and maturity dates. Based on these circumstances, we believe that these forward foreign currency exchange contracts are most appropriately included within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 1 included in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008 for additional information about our forward foreign currency exchange contracts.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). We adopted SFAS 159 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure eligible items in the balance sheet at fair value at specified election dates with the unrealized gains and losses recognized in net earnings. We did not elect to change the measurement of any items in our balance sheet to fair value upon adoption; therefore the adoption of SFAS 159 did not have an impact on our financial statements.

4. | Operating Group Information:Our business is operated through our four operating groups: Tommy Bahama, Ben Sherman, Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel. 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. The leader of each operating group reports directly to our Chief Executive Officer. Corporate and Other is a reconciling category for reporting purposes and includes our corporate offices, substantially all financing activities, LIFO inventory accounting adjustments and other costs that are not allocated to the operating groups. Corporate and Other includes a LIFO reserve of $39.8 million, $39.8 million and $39.3 million as of August 2, 2008, February 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The decrease in total assets for Corporate and Other from August 3, 2007 is primarily due to the cash on-hand at August 3, 2007, which was primarily included in the balance sheet of Corporate and Other. For further information on our operating groups, see Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this report and Part I, Item 1. Business in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008. |

5. | Accelerated Share Repurchase Program:As discussed in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008 and our Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, on November 8, 2007, we entered into a $60 million capped accelerated share repurchase agreement with Bank of America, N.A., an unrelated third party. On November 8, 2007, we made a payment of $60 million to Bank of America that was funded by borrowings under our Prior Credit Agreement, (as defined in Note 7 below). Bank of America made an initial delivery to us of approximately 1.9 million shares during November 2007 and a final delivery on May 22, 2008 of approximately 0.6 million shares upon completion of the program. We acquired approximately 2.5 million shares at a price of $24.03 per share. |
6. | Restructuring Charges and Other Unusual Items:During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, we incurred approximately $8.9 million of charges related to the impact of restructuring in our Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel operating groups. We anticipate an additional $0.6 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2008. In addition to these restructuring charges, we recognized other unusual items totaling a charge of $0.3 million and a net benefit of $1.2 million in Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel respectively substantially all of which is reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses or SG&A. | |
Lanier Clothes incurred restructuring charges totaling approximately $9.2 million associated with the decision to exit certain license agreements relating to the Nautica® and O OscarTMbrands and the restructuring of our Arnold Brant® business. These charges include costs associated with the disposal of the inventory, payments related to license termination, the impairment of intangible assets associated with the Arnold Brant business, severance costs and the impairment of certain property, plant and equipment. Approximately $2.5 million and $2.2 million of these charges were recorded in SG&A, and amortization of intangible assets, respectively, with the remaining charges being recognized in net sales and cost of goods sold. Substantially all cash charges are anticipated to be paid prior to the end of fiscal 2008. Approximately $1.9 million of the $9.2 million of charges for Lanier Clothes were reversed in cost of goods sold in Corporate & Other as part of LIFO accounting. | ||
Additionally, our Oxford Apparel operating group incurred certain restructuring charges totaling approximately $1.6 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 associated with the decision to exit the Solitude business. These charges include costs associated with the disposal of inventory which are classified as a reduction to net sales and the impairment of intangible assets of $1.1 million associated with the Solitude business which is included in amortization of intangible assets. | ||
The net benefit of $1.2 million in Oxford Apparel was primarily related to the resolution of a contingent liability and the sale of a trademark partially offset by an increase in our bad debt reserve due to certain customers’ bankruptcy filings. | ||
7. | Subsequent Event:Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2008, on August 15, 2008, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement”). The parties to the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement are Oxford Industries, Inc. and Tommy Bahama Group, Inc., as the borrowers (the “Borrowers”), certain of our subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), the financial institutions party thereto as lenders, the financial institutions party thereto as issuing banks, and SunTrust Bank as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement amends and restates our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2004, as amended (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), among Oxford Industries, Inc., certain of our domestic subsidiaries as borrowers or guarantors, certain financial institutions party thereto as lenders, certain financial institutions party thereto as the issuing banks and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent. | |
The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility which may be used to refinance existing funded debt, to fund working capital, to fund future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. The material terms of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement are as follows: |
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $175 million, which may be increased by up to $100 million by us subject to certain conditions. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a revolving credit facility of up to $280 million. |

• | The total amount of availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement is limited to a borrowing base consisting of specified percentages of eligible categories of assets. The Administrative Agent has certain discretion to determine eligibility and to establish reserves with respect to the calculation of borrowing base availability. |
• | We may request base rate advances or LIBOR advances. Base rate advances accrue interest at floating rates equal to the higher of (i) SunTrust Bank’s prime lending rate or (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points. LIBOR advances accrue interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin. We are also charged fees for letters of credit which are issued under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. The applicable margin on LIBOR advances and the letter of credit fees are determined from a pricing grid which is based on the average unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. Interest rate margins on LIBOR advances and standby letter of credit fees range from 175 basis points to 225 basis points, while the letter of credit fees for trade letters of credit range from 100 basis points to 150 basis points. Unused line fees are calculated at a per annum rate of 30 basis points. | ||
• | Our obligations under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in the Borrowers’ and the Guarantors’ accounts receivable (other than royalty payments in respect of trademark licenses), inventory, investment property (including the equity interests of certain subsidiaries), general intangibles (other than trademarks, trade names and related rights), deposit accounts, inter-company obligations, equipment, goods, documents, contracts, books and records and other personal property. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial covenant that applies only if unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement is less than the greater of (i) $26.25 million or (ii) 15% of the total revolving commitments for three consecutive business days. In such case, our fixed charge coverage ratio for the immediately preceding twelve fiscal months for which financial statements have been delivered may not be less than 1.0 to 1.0. 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) $26.25 million or (ii) 15% of the total revolving commitments for thirty consecutive days. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement contains a number of customary affirmative covenants regarding, among other things, the delivery of financial and other information to the Administrative Agent and other lenders, maintenance of records, compliance with law, maintenance of property and insurance and conduct of business. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement also contains certain negative covenants, including, among other things, covenants that limit our ability to (i) incur debt, (ii) guaranty certain obligations, (iii) incur liens, (iv) pay dividends to shareholders or repurchase shares of our common stock, (v) make investments, (vi) sell assets or stock of subsidiaries, (vii) acquire assets or businesses, (viii) merge or consolidate with other companies, or (ix) prepay, retire, repurchase or redeem debt. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement generally is scheduled to mature on August 15, 2013 as compared to the Prior Credit Agreement which had a maturity date of July 28, 2009. |
The above description of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the actual terms of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and the related Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement, attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 19, 2008. As a result of amending and restating the Prior Credit Agreement, during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 we anticipate writing off approximately $0.9 million of unamortized financing costs incurred in connection with the Prior Credit Agreement.

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 Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008.
OVERVIEW
We generate revenues and cash flow through the design, production, sale and distribution of branded and private label consumer apparel and footwear for men, women and children and the licensing of company-owned trademarks. Our principal markets and customers are located in the United States and, to a lesser extent, the United Kingdom. We source substantially all of our products through third-party producers located outside the United States and United Kingdom. We distribute the majority of our products through our wholesale customers, which include chain stores, department stores, specialty stores, specialty catalog retailers, mass merchants and Internet retailers. We also sell products of certain owned brands through our owned and licensed retail stores and e-commerce websites.
The first six months of fiscal 2008 was a challenging time for the retail and apparel industry as a result of the weak economic conditions which began in the second half of the 2007 calendar year and have continued through the second quarter of fiscal 2008. These conditions impacted each of our operating groups, and we expect that these challenging economic conditions will continue in the near-term. Therefore, we have continued to plan inventory purchases conservatively, which will limit our sales growth opportunities for the remainder of fiscal 2008. This strategy, however, will also mitigate inventory markdown risk and promotional pressures. At the same time, we continue to invest in our Tommy Bahama® and Ben Sherman® brands through store openings and new marketing initiatives and focus our Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel businesses on key product categories and lines of business.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, we incurred approximately $8.9 million of charges related to the impact of restructuring in our Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel operating groups, as discussed below. We anticipate an additional $0.6 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2008. Diluted net earnings per common share were $0.09 in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and $0.49 in the three months ended August 3, 2007. The most significant factors impacting our results during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 were the restructuring charges and other items discussed below:
• | Tommy Bahama reported a $2.8 million, or 13.4%, decrease in operating income during the second quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007. The decrease was primarily due to higher selling, general and administrative expenses associated with operating additional retail stores as well as the impact of the current economic conditions on sales at our existing retail stores and in our wholesale business, which was partially offset by the sales at the 11 retail stores opened on or after May 5, 2007, which was the first day of the three months ended August 3, 2007. | ||
• | Ben Sherman reported a $0.6 million, or 37.9%, increase in operating loss during the second quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to lower sales in our United Kingdom wholesale business as we continued our efforts to reposition the brand and our United States wholesale business as the three months ended August 3, 2007 included higher levels of off-price sales. These planned decreases were partially offset by increased sales at our retail stores, which are located in the United Kingdom and United States, and in wholesale operations in markets outside of the United Kingdom and United States. | ||
• | Lanier Clothes reported a $9.2 million, or 418.5%, increase in operating loss during the second quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007. This increase in operating loss is primarily attributable to approximately $9.2 million of restructuring charges associated with our decision to exit the Nautica and O Oscar licensed businesses and the restructuring of our Arnold Brant business. The restructuring charges included costs associated with the disposal of inventory, payments related to license termination, impairment of intangible assets associated with the Arnold Brant business, severance costs and the impairment of certain fixed assets. Lanier Clothes continued to feel |

the impact of weak demand in the branded tailored clothing market during the second quarter of fiscal 2008. |
• | Oxford Apparel reported a $0.7 million, or 21.7%, increase in operating income during the second quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007. As we continue to focus on key product categories and lines of business, net sales decreased during the quarter. However, SG&A declined by an amount greater than the decrease in gross profit caused by the lower sales. During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, we recognized approximately $1.6 million of charges associated with our decision to exit the Solitude business. The operating results for the quarter also included the benefit of approximately $1.2 million attributable to the resolution of a contingent liability and the sale of a trademark, which were partially offset by an increase in our bad debt reserve due to certain customers’ bankruptcy filings. | ||
• | Corporate and Other reported a $3.2 million, or 85.9%, decrease in operating loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007. This decrease in operating loss was primarily due to the impact of LIFO accounting, including a $1.9 million reversal of certain restructuring charges recognized in Lanier Clothes, and lower SG&A during the second quarter of fiscal 2008. |
On May 22, 2008, at the conclusion of our accelerated share repurchase program which we entered into in November 2007, we received an additional 0.6 million shares of our common stock, bringing the total number of shares received pursuant to the program to 2.5 million. This accelerated share repurchase program is complete and we will not receive any additional shares in the future pursuant to this program. For further information regarding our $60 million accelerated share repurchase program, see Note 5 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2008 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 3, 2007
The discussion below compares our operating results for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 to the three months ended August 3, 2007. Each percentage change provided below reflects the change between these periods unless indicated otherwise.
Net salesdecreased $14.1 million, or 5.8%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007 primarily as a result of the changes discussed below.
23
Table of Contents
Tommy Bahama reported a decrease in net sales of $2.4 million, or 2.1%. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in net sales at wholesale and in our existing owned retail stores resulting from the difficult retail environment. This decrease in wholesale sales and our existing store retail sales was partially offset by retail sales at our 11 retail stores opened on or after May 5, 2007, which was the first day of the three months ended August 3, 2007, and e-commerce sales which commenced in October 2007. We operated 78 Tommy Bahama retail stores on August 2, 2008 compared to 69 retail stores on August 3, 2007. Unit sales decreased 6.0% due to the difficult retail environment at our own retail stores and our wholesale customers’ stores during the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The average selling price per unit increased by 2.6%, as sales at our retail stores and our e-commerce sales, both of which have higher average sales prices than wholesale sales, represented a greater proportion of total Tommy Bahama sales. We expect the difficult retail environment to continue through the end of fiscal 2008.
Ben Sherman reported a decrease in net sales of $4.0 million, or 11.0%. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower sales in our United Kingdom wholesale business as we continue to reposition the brand in fiscal 2008 and lower sales in our United States wholesale business due to reduced off-price sales and our exit from the Evisu apparel business in the prior year. These declines were partially offset by increased sales at our retail stores, which are located in the United Kingdom and United States, and increased sales in markets outside of the United Kingdom and United States. During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, unit sales for Ben Sherman declined 16.2% due primarily to the decline in the United Kingdom and United States wholesale businesses partially offset by increased sales in our retail operations and in markets outside of the United Kingdom and United States. The average selling price per unit increased 6.3%, primarily due to a larger percentage of total Ben Sherman sales being sales at our retail stores rather than wholesale sales, a lower level of off-price sales in the current year and higher price points in the United Kingdom business. For the remainder of fiscal 2008, we anticipate that sales in our Ben Sherman wholesale business in the United Kingdom will decline compared to the same periods in the prior year as we continue to reposition the brand, but we expect that this decline will be partially offset by sales increases in our retail operations and in our operations outside of the United Kingdom and United States.
Lanier Clothes reported a decrease in net sales of $3.4 million, or 10.7%. The decrease was primarily due to the weak demand in the tailored clothing market. This weak demand resulted in lower unit sales and lower average selling price per unit in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. We expect that this sluggish market will continue through the end of fiscal 2008.
Oxford Apparel reported a decrease in net sales of $3.0 million, or 5.0%. The decrease in net sales was anticipated in connection with the strategy we implemented in the latter part of fiscal 2007 to focus on key product categories and exit underperforming lines of business. Unit sales increased by 0.9% and the average selling price per unit decreased by 5.8% due to changes in product mix as we focused on key product categories. We anticipate that sales in the remainder of fiscal 2008 will be lower than the prior year as we continue to focus on key product categories and exit certain lines of business.
Gross profitdecreased 6.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The decrease was due to lower sales, as described above and lower gross margins. Gross margins decreased to 41.9% of net sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 from 42.1% in the prior period. The decrease in gross margins was primarily due to the restructuring charges impacting net sales and cost of goods sold in Lanier Clothes, Oxford Apparel and Corporate and Other totaling approximately $3.1 million, partially offset by the increased proportion of Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman sales, which generally have higher gross margins than our Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel businesses. Gross margins for Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman improved compared to the three months ended August 3, 2007.
Our gross profit may not be directly comparable to those of our competitors, as statement of earnings classifications of certain expenses may vary by company.
SG&A,expenses were flat in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. SG&A was 38.6% of net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to 36.4% in the three months ended August 3, 2007. Restructuring charges included in SG&A of approximately $2.5 million in Lanier Clothes and increased expenses associated with operating additional Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman retail stores were offset by
24
Table of Contents
reductions in employment and other costs and the resolution of a contingent liability. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was due to the reduction in net sales, as discussed above.
Amortization of intangible assetsincreased $2.7 million or 207.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The increase was due to $3.3 million of impairment charges related to the Arnold Brant and Solitude intangible assets in Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel, respectively. These charges were partially offset by a decrease in amortization expense as amortization is typically greater in the earlier periods following an acquisition.
Royalties and other operating incomeincreased 13.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The increase was primarily due to the sale of a trademark by Oxford Apparel during the second quarter of fiscal 2008.
Operating incomedecreased 51.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 primarily due to the changes discussed below.
Tommy Bahama reported a $2.8 million, or 13.4%, decrease in operating income. The decrease was primarily due to the higher SG&A expenses associated with operating additional retail stores in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and an increase in marketing and advertising costs of approximately $0.7 million as well as the lower sales resulting from the impact of the current economic conditions.
Ben Sherman reported a $0.6 million, or 37.9%, increase in operating loss. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to lower sales in our United Kingdom and United States wholesale businesses in the second quarter of fiscal 2008, as discussed above. The decline in sales in the United Kingdom and the United States wholesale businesses were partially offset by increased earnings in markets outside of the United Kingdom and United States.
Lanier Clothes reported a $9.2 million, or 418.5%, increase in operating loss. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to the $9.2 million of restructuring charges associated with our decision to exit the Nautica and O Oscar licensed businesses and the restructuring of our Arnold Brant business. These charges include costs associated with the disposal of inventory, payments related to license termination, the impairment of the intangible assets associated with the Arnold Brant business, severance costs and the impairment of certain property, plant and equipment. Approximately $1.9 million of inventory charges for Lanier Clothes were reversed in Corporate & Other as part of LIFO accounting.
Oxford Apparel reported a $0.7 million, or 21.7%, increase in operating income. The increase was attributable to decreased employment costs and the resolution of a contingent liability partially offset by decreased gross profit and the impairment charge for the Solitude intangible assets and certain inventory disposal costs associated with exiting the Solitude business. The decrease in gross profit was due to the decrease in sales as we continue to focus on key product categories and exit certain lines of business.
The Corporate and Other operating loss decreased 85.9%. The decrease in the operating loss was primarily due to the impact of LIFO accounting, including a $1.9 million reversal of certain restructuring charges recognized in Lanier Clothes, and lower corporate SG&A.
Interest expense, netincreased 17.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to a higher average debt outstanding during the period. The higher average debt outstanding was primarily a result of our $60 million accelerated share repurchase program which was funded in November 2007, our final earn-out payment in August 2007 for the Tommy Bahama acquisition and our acquisition of Tommy Bahama’s third-party buying agent on February 1, 2008, each of which was funded through borrowings under our Prior Credit Agreement. These borrowings were partially offset by cash flow from operating activities and reductions in working capital subsequent to August 3, 2007.
Income taxeswere at an effective tax rate of 27% for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to 24% for the three months ended August 3, 2007. The rates for both periods were impacted by certain discrete items which may not be present in future periods. The second quarter of fiscal 2008 was impacted by lower projected earnings for the year resulting from the restructuring charges recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 while the three months

ended August 3, 2007 benefited from the reversal of a deferred tax liability in association with a change in our assertion regarding our initial investment in a foreign subsidiary which is now considered permanently reinvested. We believe that our annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2008, before the impact of any discrete items, will be approximately 32%. However, that rate may change as the impact of certain permanent items on our tax rate will change if net earnings vary from our expectations.
Diluted net earnings per common sharedecreased to $0.09 in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 from $0.49, primarily due to the restructuring charges and other unusual items discussed above and the continued impact of the current economic conditions. Diluted net earnings per common share was also impacted by the reduction in the weighted average shares outstanding during the period as a result of our receipt of approximately 1.9 million and 0.6 million shares of our common stock in November 2007 and May 2008, respectively.
FIRST SIX MONTHS OF FISCAL 2008 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 3, 2007
The discussion below compares our operating results for the first six months of fiscal 2008 to the six months ended August 3, 2007. Each percentage change provided below reflects the change between these periods unless indicated otherwise.
Net salesdecreased $33.5 million, or 6.2%, in the first six months of fiscal 2008 compared to the six months ended August 3, 2007 primarily as a result of the changes discussed below.
Tommy Bahama reported a decrease in net sales of $4.9 million, or 2.0%. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in net sales at wholesale and in our existing owned retail stores resulting from the difficult retail environment. This decrease in wholesale sales and existing store retail sales was partially offset by increased retail sales at our retail stores opened on or after February 3, 2007, which was the first day of the six months ended August 3, 2007, and sales through Tommy Bahama’s e-commerce website which commenced in October 2007. Unit sales decreased 7.1% due to the difficult retail environment at our own retail stores and our wholesale customers’ stores during the first half of fiscal 2008. The average selling price per unit increased by 4.5%, as sales at our retail stores and our e-commerce sales, both of which have higher sales prices than wholesale, represented a greater proportion of total Tommy Bahama sales.
Ben Sherman reported a decrease in net sales of $6.7 million, or 8.8%. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower sales in our United Kingdom wholesale business as we continue to reposition the brand in fiscal 2008 and in our United States wholesale business partially due to reduced off-price sales and our exit from the Evisu apparel business. These declines were partially offset by increased sales at our retail stores and increased sales in markets outside of the United Kingdom and United States. During the first half of fiscal 2008, unit sales for Ben Sherman declined by 9.3% due primarily to the decline in the United Kingdom and United States wholesale businesses. The average selling price per unit increased 0.5%, resulting primarily from a larger percentage of total Ben Sherman sales being sales at our retail stores partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price per unit in the United States wholesale business due to the three months ended August 3, 2007 including higher average price per unit Evisu sales.
Lanier Clothes reported a decrease in net sales of $7.3 million, or 9.9%. The decrease was primarily due to weak demand in the tailored clothing market. This weak demand resulted in a decrease in unit sales of 8.7% and a decrease in the average selling price per unit of 1.3% during the first half of fiscal 2008.
Oxford Apparel reported a decrease in net sales of $12.7 million, or 9.1%. The decrease in net sales was anticipated in connection with the strategy we implemented in the latter part of fiscal 2007 to focus on key product categories and exit underperforming lines of business. Unit sales decreased by 6.3% as a result of the exit of certain lines of business, and the average selling price per unit decreased by 3.1% due to changes in product mix.
Gross profitdecreased 4.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2008. The decrease was due to lower sales, as described above, partially offset by higher gross margins. Gross margins increased to 42.3% of net sales during the first half of fiscal 2008 from 41.6% in the six months ended August 3, 2007. The increase was primarily due to the increased proportion of Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman sales, which generally have higher gross margins than our Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel businesses partially offset by the $3.1 million of restructuring charges in

Lanier Clothes, Oxford Apparel and Corporate and Other. Gross margins for Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman improved compared to the six months ended August 3, 2007.
Our gross profit may not be directly comparable to those of our competitors, as income statement of earnings classifications of certain expenses may vary by company.
SG&A,increased 3.3% in the first six months of fiscal 2008. SG&A was 37.5% of net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2008 compared to 34.0% in the six months ended August 3, 2007. The increase in SG&A was primarily due to the expenses associated with operating additional Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman retail stores, approximately $3.0 million of additional marketing costs in Tommy Bahama, approximately $0.8 million of additional pre-opening costs primarily related to two new Tommy Bahama café emporiums, and restructuring charges of approximately $2.5 million in Lanier Clothes. These increased costs were partially offset by reductions in employment costs and the resolution of a contingent liability. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was due to the increase in total SG&A and the reduction in net sales, as discussed above.
Amortization of intangible assetsincreased 60.8% in the first six months of fiscal 2008. The increase was due to $3.3 million of impairment charges related to the Arnold Brant and Solitude intangible assets in Lanier Clothes and Oxford Apparel, respectively. These charges were partially offset by a decrease in amortization expense as amortization is typically greater in the earlier periods following an acquisition.
Royalties and other operating incomedecreased 9.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2008. The decrease was primarily due to the six months ended August 3, 2007 including a $2.0 million gain related to the sale of our Monroe, Georgia facility by the Oxford Apparel Group. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in royalty income for our brands during the first six months of fiscal 2008 and the sale of a trademark in the second quarter of fiscal 2008.
Operating incomedecreased 41.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2008 primarily due to the changes discussed below.
Tommy Bahama reported a $9.8 million, or 20.7%, decrease in operating income. The decrease was primarily due to reduced sales, as discussed above, and higher SG&A expenses due to operating costs of additional retail stores, additional marketing costs and additional pre-opening costs primarily associated with two new Tommy Bahama café emporiums.
Ben Sherman reported a $2.0 million, or 859.6%, decrease in operating income. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales in our United Kingdom and United States wholesale businesses, as discussed above. These lower sales in the United Kingdom and the United States wholesale businesses were partially offset by increased earnings in markets outside of the United Kingdom and United States.
Lanier Clothes reported a $10.6 million increase in operating loss. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to restructuring charges and lower sales. The $9.2 million of restructuring charges were associated with the decision to exit the Nautica and O Oscar licensed businesses and the restructuring of our Arnold Brant business. The restructuring charges include costs associated with disposal of inventory, license termination fees, the impairment of the intangible assets associated with the Arnold Brant business, severance costs and the impairment of certain property, plant and equipment. Approximately $1.9 million of inventory charges for Lanier Clothes were reversed in Corporate & Other as part of LIFO accounting. The lower sales were primarily due to the weak demand for tailored clothing.
Oxford Apparel reported a $1.3 million, or 12.3%, decrease in operating income. The decrease was primarily attributable to the six months ended August 3, 2007 including a $2.0 million gain related to the sale of our Monroe, Georgia facility by the Oxford Apparel Group in April 2007 and the fiscal 2008 impairment of the Solitude trademark and certain other costs associated with exiting the Solitude business. The current year charges were partially offset by lower employment cost and the resolution of a contingent liability.

Table of Contents
The Corporate and Other operating loss decreased 43.4%. The decrease in the operating loss was primarily due to the impact of LIFO accounting, including a $1.9 million reversal of certain restructuring charges recognized in Lanier Clothes, and lower compensation costs in the current year.
Interest expense, netincreased 17.6% in the first six months of fiscal 2008. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to a higher average debt outstanding during the period. The higher average debt outstanding was primarily a result of our $60 million accelerated share repurchase program which was funded in November 2007, our final earn-out payment in August 2007 for the Tommy Bahama acquisition and our acquisition of Tommy Bahama’s third-party buying agent on February 1, 2008, each of which was funded through borrowings under our Prior Credit Agreement. These borrowings were partially offset by cash flow from operating activities and reductions in working capital subsequent to August 3, 2007.
Income taxeswere at an effective tax rate of 30% for the first six months of fiscal 2008 and for the six months ended August 3, 2007. The rates for both periods were impacted by certain discrete items which may not be present in future periods. The first six months of fiscal 2008 benefited from changes in certain contingency reserves while the six months ended August 3, 2007 benefited from the reversal of a deferred tax liability in association with a change in our assertion regarding our initial investment in a foreign subsidiary which is now considered permanently reinvested. We believe our annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2008, before the impact of any discrete events, will be approximately 32%. However, that rate may change as the impact of certain permanent items on our tax rate will change if net earnings vary from our expectations.
Diluted net earnings per common sharedecreased to $0.69 in the first six months of fiscal 2008 from $1.44 in the six months ended August 3, 2007, primarily due to the restructuring charges discussed above and the continued impact of the current economic conditions. This decline in net earnings was partially offset by the reduction in the weighted average shares outstanding during the period as a result of our receipt of approximately 1.9 million and 0.6 million shares of our common stock in November 2007 and May 2008, respectively.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary source of revenue and cash flow is our operating activities in the United States and, to a lesser extent, the United Kingdom. When cash inflows are less than cash outflows, subject to their terms, we also have access to amounts under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement (or the Prior Credit Agreement before August 15, 2008) and U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement, each of which are described below. We may seek to finance future capital investment programs through various methods, including, but not limited to, cash flow from operations, borrowings under our current or additional credit facilities and sales of debt or equity securities.
Our liquidity requirements arise from the funding of our working capital needs, which include inventory, other operating expenses and accounts receivable, funding of capital expenditures, payment of quarterly dividends, repayment of our indebtedness and acquisitions, if any. Our product purchases are often acquired through trade letters of credit which are drawn against our lines of credit at the time of shipment of the products and which reduce the amounts available under our lines of credit when issued.
Cash and cash equivalentson hand was $5.2 million at August 2, 2008 and $57.0 million at August 3, 2007.
Operating Activities
During the first six months of fiscal 2008 and the six months ended August 3, 2007, our operations generated $62.1 million and $44.5 million of cash, respectively. The operating cash flows were primarily the result of earnings for the period, adjusted for non-cash activities such as depreciation, amortization and stock compensation expense and changes in our working capital accounts. In the first six months of fiscal 2008 the significant changes in working capital from February 2, 2008 were a decrease in inventory levels and accounts receivable, as discussed below. In the six months ended August 3, 2007, the significant changes in working capital from February 2, 2007 were decreases in inventory and accounts receivables and an increase in other non-current liabilities which were partially offset by a decrease in current liabilities, each as discussed below.

Table of Contents
Our working capital ratio, which is calculated by dividing total current assets by total current liabilities, was 2.2:1 and 2.4:1 at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The change from August 3, 2007 was primarily due to the significant reductions in cash and inventory, which was partially offset by the lack of an earn-out being payable at August 2, 2008.
Receivableswere $96.5 million and $99.2 million at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively, representing a decrease of 3%. Days’ sales outstanding for our wholesale accounts receivable was 53 days and 54 days at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively.
Inventorieswere $129.9 million and $156.9 million at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively, representing a decrease of 17%. Inventory for Tommy Bahama was comparable to the prior year, even with the additional owned retail stores. Ben Sherman inventory increased due to the timing of in-transit inventory for the fall season. Lanier Clothes inventory decreased significantly in the current year as we have reduced the amount of excess inventories from prior year levels. Inventory levels for Oxford Apparel decreased compared to the prior year, primarily due to inventory reductions in replenishment programs and the exit of certain programs which were partially offset by inventory increases due to new initiatives in our dress shirt business and other key product categories. Our days’ supply of inventory on hand, using FIFO basis, was 105 days and 114 days as of August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively, primarily due to the changes in the operating group inventories discussed above.
Prepaid expenseswere $22.0 million and $24.3 million at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The decrease in prepaid expenses was primarily due to the timing of payments for certain operating expenses and changes in deferred income taxes resulting from certain timing differences related to employee compensation amounts.
Current liabilitieswere $115.5 million and $142.3 million at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The decrease in current liabilities was primarily due to August 3, 2007 including an accrual for additional acquisition cost payable of $22.4 million related to the 2003 Tommy Bahama acquisition which was paid in August 2007 as well as decreases in income taxes payable, dividends payable and incentive compensation.
Other non-current liabilities,which primarily consist of deferred rent and deferred compensation amounts, were $52.7 million and $49.7 million at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The increase was primarily due to recognition of additional deferred rent amounts during the 12 months subsequent to August 3, 2007.
Non-current deferred income taxeswere $59.0 million and $69.8 million at August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The change resulted from the impact of changes in book to tax differences for depreciation, deferred compensation and amortization of intangible assets, the impact of a change in the enacted tax rate in the United Kingdom in 2007 and a distribution from a foreign subsidiary in January 2008.
Investing Activities
During the first six months of fiscal 2008 investing activities used $12.7 million of cash including $12.3 million for capital expenditures, primarily related to new retail stores and costs associated with our implementation of new integrated financial systems which is currently in process. During the six months ended August 3, 2007, investing activities used $14.6 million of cash. These investing activities included $17.1 million of capital expenditures primarily related to new retail stores, which were partially offset by $2.5 million of proceeds from the sale of our Monroe, Georgia facility in April 2007.
Non-current assets, including property, plant and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets and other non-current assets, increased from August 3, 2007 to August 2, 2008 primarily as a result of our acquisition of Tommy Bahama’s third-party buying agent on February 1, 2008 for approximately $35 million and capital expenditures for our new retail stores. These increases were partially offset by depreciation related to our property, plant and equipment, impairment, amortization of certain intangible assets and amortization of deferred financing costs subsequent to August 3, 2007.

Financing Activities
During the first six months of fiscal 2008, financing activities used $59.4 million of cash. The cash flow provided by our operating activities in excess of cash flows used in investing activities and the three quarterly dividends paid totaling $8.7 million were used to repay amounts outstanding under our U.S. Revolver.
During the six months ended August 3, 2007, financing activities used $3.8 million of cash. We paid two quarterly dividends totaling $6.4 million during the six month period which was partially offset by cash received related to the exercise of employee stock options during the six month period totaling $2.6 million.
On September 8, 2008, our board of directors approved a cash dividend of $0.18 per share payable on October 31, 2008 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 15, 2008. As we have for each quarter since we became a public company in July 1960, we expect to pay dividends in future quarters. However, we may discontinue or modify dividend payments at any time if we determine that other uses of our capital, including but not limited to, payment of outstanding debt, repurchases of outstanding shares or funding of future acquisitions, may be in our best interest; if our expectations of future cash flows and future cash needs outweigh the ability to pay a dividend; or if the terms of our credit facilities or other debt instruments limit our ability to pay dividends. We may borrow to fund dividends in the short-term based on our expectation of operating cash flows in future periods subject to the terms and conditions of our credit facilities and other debt instruments. All cash flow from operations will not necessarily be paid out as dividends in all periods.
Debt,including short term debt was $221.6 million and $199.7 million as of August 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the borrowings under our Prior Credit Agreement to fund our $60 million share repurchase program, the payment in August 2007 of the final earn-out payment of approximately $22 million related to the 2003 Tommy Bahama acquisition and our acquisition of Tommy Bahama’s third-party buying agent on February 1, 2008 for approximately $35 million. These increases in borrowings were partially offset by cash flow from operating activities subsequent to August 3, 2007.

(2) | In August 2008, the U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement was extended until August 2009, which increased the interest rate to base rate plus 1.35% with all other terms remaining consistent with the previous agreement. |
U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement
Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2008, on August 15, 2008, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement”). The parties to the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement are Oxford Industries, Inc. and Tommy Bahama Group, Inc., as the borrowers (the “Borrowers”), certain of our subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), the financial institutions party thereto as lenders, the financial institutions party thereto as issuing banks, and SunTrust Bank as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement amends and restates our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2004, as amended (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), among Oxford Industries, Inc., certain of our domestic subsidiaries as borrowers or guarantors, certain financial institutions party thereto as lenders, certain financial institutions party thereto as the issuing banks and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent.
The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility which may be used to refinance existing funded debt, to fund working capital, to fund future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. The material terms of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement are as follows:
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $175 million, which may be increased by up to $100 million by us subject to certain conditions. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a revolving credit facility of up to $280 million. | ||
• | The total amount of availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement is limited to a borrowing base consisting of specified percentages of eligible categories of assets. The Administrative Agent has certain discretion to determine eligibility and to establish reserves with respect to the calculation of borrowing base availability. | ||
• | We may request base rate advances or LIBOR advances. Base rate advances accrue interest at floating rates equal to the higher of (i) SunTrust Bank’s prime lending rate or (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points. LIBOR advances accrue interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin. We are also charged fees for letters of credit which are issued under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. The applicable margin on LIBOR advances and the letter of credit fees are determined from a pricing grid which is based on the average unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. Interest rate margins on LIBOR advances and standby letter of credit fees range from 175 basis points to 225 basis points, while the letter of credit fees for trade letters of credit range from 100 basis points to 150 basis points. Unused line fees are calculated at a per annum rate of 30 basis points. | ||
• | Our obligations under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in the Borrowers’ and the Guarantors’ accounts receivable (other than royalty payments in respect of trademark licenses), inventory, investment property (including the equity interests of certain subsidiaries), general intangibles (other than trademarks, trade names and related rights), deposit accounts, inter-company obligations, equipment, goods, documents, contracts, books and records and other personal property. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial covenant that applies only if unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement is less than the greater of (i) $26.25 million or (ii) 15% of the total revolving commitments for three consecutive business days. In such case, our fixed charge coverage ratio for the immediately preceding twelve fiscal months for which financial statements have been delivered may not be less than 1.0 to 1.0. 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) $26.25 million or (ii) 15% of the total revolving commitments for thirty consecutive days. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement contains a number of customary affirmative covenants regarding, among other things, the delivery of financial and other information to the Administrative Agent and other |
31
Table of Contents
lenders, maintenance of records, compliance with law, maintenance of property and insurance and conduct of business. | |||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement also contains certain negative covenants, including, among other things, covenants that limit our ability to (i) incur debt, (ii) guaranty certain obligations, (iii) incur liens, (iv) pay dividends to shareholders or repurchase shares of our common stock, (v) make investments, (vi) sell assets or stock of subsidiaries, (vii) acquire assets or businesses, (viii) merge or consolidate with other companies, or (ix) prepay, retire, repurchase or redeem debt. | ||
• | The U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement generally is scheduled to mature on August 15, 2013 as compared to the Prior Credit Agreement which had a maturity date of July 28, 2009. |
The above description of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the actual terms of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement and the related Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement, attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 19, 2008.
On August 15, 2008, we had approximately $102 million in unused availability under the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement. As a result of amending and restating the Prior Credit Agreement, during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 we anticipate writing off approximately $0.9 million of unamortized financing costs incurred in connection with the Prior Credit Agreement.
Our credit facilities are used to finance trade letters of credit and standby letters of credit, as well as to provide funding for other operating activities and acquisitions. As of August 2, 2008, approximately $28.4 million of trade letters of credit and other limitations on availability were outstanding against our Prior Credit Agreement and U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement.
Our Prior Credit Agreement included and our Senior Unsecured Notes include certain debt covenant restrictions requiring us or our subsidiaries to maintain certain financial ratios that we believe are customary for similar facilities. As of August 2, 2008, we were compliant with all financial covenants related to our debt agreements.
Pursuant to the indenture governing our Senior Unsecured Notes, we may make certain Restricted Payments, as defined in the indenture, to the extent that the sum of the Restricted Payments does not exceed the allowable amount described in the indenture. Restricted Payments include the payment of dividends, the repurchase of our common shares, repayment of certain debt, the payment of amounts pursuant to earn-out agreements and certain investments. The allowable amount includes 50% of GAAP net income, as adjusted, cash proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock including stock options and restricted stock awards, and certain other items.
The Senior Unsecured Notes are subject to redemption at any time, at our option, in whole or in part, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice. During the period from June 1, 2008 through May 31, 2009, the amount paid at redemption would be equal to 102.219% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Notes to be redeemed together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. Subsequent to June 1, 2009, the amount paid at redemption would be equal to 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Notes to be redeemed together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. Additionally, if we determine that the market price of the Senior Unsecured Notes is appropriate and we have sufficient availability under our U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement, we may repurchase a portion of the Senior Unsecured Notes on the open market.

Our debt-to-total-capitalization ratio was 35%, 40% and 30% at August 2, 2008, February 2, 2008 and August 3, 2007, respectively. The change in this ratio from August 3, 2007 was primarily a result of increased borrowings to fund our $60 million share repurchase program, the payment of the final earn-out for the 2003 Tommy Bahama acquisition in August 2007 and our acquisition of Tommy Bahama’s third-party buying agent on February 1, 2008 as well as the reduction in total capital as a result of the $60 million share repurchase program. Our debt level and ratio of debt-to- total-capitalization in future years may not be comparable to historical amounts as we continuously assess and periodically make changes to our capital structure and may make additional acquisitions, investments, changes to our debt facilities or repurchases of shares in the future. On September 8, 2008, our board of directors authorized the repurchase by us of up to 0.5 million shares of our common stock.
We anticipate that we will be able to satisfy our ongoing cash requirements, which generally consist of working capital needs, capital expenditures (primarily for the opening of additional Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman retail stores and the implementation of new integrated financial systems) and interest payments on our debt during the remainder of fiscal 2008, primarily from 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.
If appropriate investment opportunities arise that exceed the availability under our existing credit facilities, we believe that we will be able to fund such acquisitions through additional or refinanced debt facilities or the issuance of additional equity. However, our ability to obtain additional borrowings or refinance our credit facilities will depend on many factors, including the prevailing market conditions, our financial condition and our ability to negotiate favorable terms and conditions. There is no assurance that financing would be available on terms that are acceptable or favorable to us, if at all. At maturity of the U.S. Revolving Credit Agreement, the U.K. Revolving Credit Agreement and the Senior Unsecured Notes, we anticipate that we will be able to refinance the facilities and debt with terms available in the market at that time.
Our contractual obligations as of August 2, 2008 have not changed significantly from the contractual obligations outstanding at February 2, 2008 other than the amendment to the Prior Credit Agreement, changes in the amounts outstanding under our credit facilities, amounts outstanding pursuant to letters of credit (each as discussed above) and new leases entered into for additional retail stores, none of which occurred outside the ordinary course of business.
Our anticipated capital expenditures for fiscal 2008 are expected to be approximately $25 million, including $12.3 million incurred during the first six months of fiscal 2008. These expenditures primarily relate to the continued expansion of our Tommy Bahama and Ben Sherman retail operations and the implementation of new integrated financial systems.
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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, income taxes, stock compensation expense, contingencies and litigation and certain 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. 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 Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008. There have not been any significant changes to the application of our critical accounting policies and estimates during fiscal 2008.
SEASONALITY
Although our various product lines are sold on a year-round basis, the demand for specific products or styles may be seasonal. For example, the demand for Tommy Bahama and golf products is higher in the spring and summer seasons. Generally, our products are sold to our wholesale customers prior to each of the retail selling seasons, including spring, summer, fall and holiday. As the timing of product shipments and other events affecting retail businesses may vary, results for any particular quarter may not be indicative of results for the full year. The percentage of net sales by quarter for the twelve months ended February 2, 2008 was 27%, 23%, 26% and 24%, respectively, and the percentage of earnings before income taxes by quarter for the twelve months ended February 2, 2008 was 40%, 18%, 28% and 14%, respectively. We do not believe this distribution is indicative of the distribution in future years, as the last three quarters of the twelve months ended February 2, 2008 were impacted by the weak economic environment which has continued in fiscal 2008.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain interest rate, foreign currency, trade policy, commodity and inflation risks as discussed in Part II. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008. There have not been any significant changes in our exposure to these risks during fiscal 2008.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure 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 communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 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
We believe that an investor should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008, which are not the only risks facing our company. During fiscal 2008, there have been no material changes to the risk factors described in our Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended February 2, 2008. If any of the risks described in our Form 10-KT, or other risks or uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results could suffer.

(1) | On November 8, 2007, we entered into a $60 million capped accelerated share repurchase agreement with Bank of America, N.A., an unrelated third party. On November 8, 2007 we made a payment of $60 million to Bank of America that was funded by borrowings under our U.S. Revolver. We received an initial delivery of approximately 1.9 million shares in November 2007 pursuant to the repurchase agreement. We received an additional 558,000 shares in May 2007 pursuant to the repurchase agreement upon completion of the program. The average price paid per shares for the 2.5 million shares purchased pursuant to the program was $24.03. We will not receive any additional shares in the future pursuant to this share repurchase program. | |
(2) | We have certain stock incentive plans as described in Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included Form 10-KT for the eight month transition period ended February 2, 2008, all of which are publicly announced plans. Under the plans, we can repurchase shares from employees to cover the employee tax liabilities related to the exercise of stock options or the vesting of previously restricted shares. All shares repurchased in June 2008 were purchased pursuant to these stock incentive plans. |
On September 8, 2008, our board of directors authorized the repurchase by us of up to 0.5 million shares of our common stock.
