Ltd. (“Gymboree China”) and Gymboree (Tianjin) Educational Information Consultation Co. Ltd. (“Gymboree Tianjin”) (collectively, the “VIEs”), have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 2, 2014.
	The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the 13 weeks ended May 3, 2014 (“first quarter of fiscal 2014”) are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the 52-week period ending January 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2014”) or any future period.

	2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

	3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets and Liabilities

	Goodwill

	During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we did not identify impairment indicators for goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets.

	In fiscal 2013, due to weak results, particularly in the fourth quarter, we concluded that there was goodwill impairment in the Crazy 8, Gymboree Retail and Gymboree Outlet reporting units. We recorded an estimate of impairment for goodwill of $140.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. The impairment charges were subject to finalization of fair values, which we have now completed, with no change to the previously recorded estimate.

	4. Derivative Financial Instruments
	We enter into forward foreign exchange contracts with respect to certain purchases in United States dollars of inventory to be sold in our retail stores in Canada. The purpose of these contracts is to protect our margins on the eventual sale of the inventory from fluctuations in the exchange rate for Canadian and U.S. dollars. The term of these forward foreign exchange contracts is generally less than one year. These contracts are treated as cash-flow hedges. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to these forward foreign exchange contracts will be reclassified to cost of goods sold over a three-month period. We also enter into forward foreign exchange contracts with respect to short-term intercompany balances between U.S. and foreign entities in Canada and Australia. The purpose of these contracts is to protect us from fluctuations in the exchange rates upon the settlement of such balances. These contracts are not designated as hedges. Consequently, changes in the fair value of these contracts are included in other income.
	In December 2010, we paid approximately $12.1 million to enter into interest rate caps to hedge against rising interest rates associated with our Term Loan (see Note 7) above the strike rate of the cap through December 23, 2016, the maturity date of the caps. The interest rate caps were designated on the date of execution as cash-flow hedges. The premium, and any related amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss, are being amortized to interest expense through December 23, 2016, as interest payments are made on the underlying Term Loan. During the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013, we reclassified approximately $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense. We estimate that approximately $2.4 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense within the next 12 months.
	For a derivative instrument designated as a cash-flow hedge, the effective portion of the derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged exposure is recognized in earnings. Gains or losses on the derivative representing either hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness or hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in earnings.
	We had the following outstanding derivatives designated as cash flow hedges (U.S. dollars in thousands):

Fair_Value_Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	3 Months Ended
Fair Value Measurements	3-May-14
Fair Value Measurements	'
	5. Fair Value Measurements
	We record our money market funds, forward foreign exchange contracts and interest rate caps at fair value. Fair value is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. Accounting guidance prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:
	Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
	Level 2 – Inputs that are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be derived from observable market data.

	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).
	In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety is classified is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
	Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
	The tables below present our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of May 3, 2014, February 1, 2014 and May 4, 2013, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 and Level 2 during the 13 weeks ended May 3, 2014 and May 4, 2013, or for the year ended February 1, 2014.

	Our cash equivalents, which are primarily placed in money market funds, are valued at their original purchase prices plus interest that has accrued at the stated rate.
	The fair value of our interest rate caps was determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) were based on the expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observed market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, were incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. In adjusting the fair value of these contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered any applicable credit enhancements such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.
	Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our interest rate caps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with these derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. However, as of May 3, 2014, February 1, 2014, and May 4, 2013, we assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our interest rate cap positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustment was not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, we classified our interest rate caps derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
	The fair value of our forward foreign exchange contracts was determined using the market approach and Level 2 inputs. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities.
	The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables balances approximate their estimated fair values due to the short maturities of these instruments. We estimate the fair value of our long-term debt using current market yields of similar debt. These current market yields are considered Level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is as follows (in thousands):


		May 3, 2014						February 1, 2014						May 4, 2013
		Carrying Amount			Fair Value			Carrying Amount			Fair Value			Carrying Amount		Fair Value

We had no other financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value as of May 3, 2014, February 1, 2014, and May 4, 2013.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Our non-financial assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, other intangible assets and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, on a periodic basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), non-financial assets are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written-down to and recorded at fair value, considering external market participant assumptions. We recorded no impairment charges in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013.

	6. Line of Credit
	We have a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL”) that provides financing of up to $225 million, subject to a borrowing base. Availability under the ABL is subject to the assets of the Company, any subsidiary co-borrowers and any subsidiary guarantors that are available to collateralize the borrowings thereunder, and is reduced by the level of outstanding letters of credit. As of May 3, 2014, there was $32.6 million of commercial and standby letters of credit outstanding and $10.0 million of borrowings outstanding.
	As of May 3, 2014, availability under the ABL was approximately $118.0 million. Average borrowings for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and for the year ended February 1, 2014 under the ABL amounted to $9.7 million and $4.3 million, respectively. There were no borrowings during the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
	The ABL provides us the right to request up to $125 million of additional commitments under this facility (or, if less, the amount permitted under the Term Loan described in Note 7), subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Principal amounts outstanding under the ABL are due and payable in full in March 2017. Borrowings under the ABL bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A., (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (3) a LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month adjusted for certain additional costs, plus 1.00%, or (b) a LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs (“Adjusted LIBOR”), in each case plus an applicable margin. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the ABL, we are required to pay a commitment fee on unutilized commitments thereunder, which is 0.375% per annum under the amended ABL.
	If at any time the aggregate amount of outstanding loans, unreimbursed letter of credit drawings and undrawn letters of credit under the ABL exceeds the lesser of (a) the commitment amount and (b) the borrowing base, we will be required to repay outstanding loans and/or cash collateralize letters of credit in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, with no reduction of the commitment amount. The ABL contains financial and other covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness and pay dividends. As of May 3, 2014, we were in compliance with these covenants. The obligations under the ABL are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of our assets. Our 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed our obligations under the ABL.

	Term Loan

	We have an agreement with several lenders for an $820 million senior secured Term Loan, with a maturity date of February 2018. The Term Loan allows us to request additional tranches of term loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $200 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, provided that such amount will be subject to reduction by the amount of any additional commitments incurred under the ABL described in Note 6. The interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan is, at our option, a base rate plus an additional marginal rate of 2.5% or the Adjusted LIBOR rate (with a 1.5% floor) plus an additional rate of 3.5%. As of May 3, 2014, the interest rate under our Term Loan was 5%.

	The Term Loan requires us to make quarterly payments equal to 0.25% of the original $820 million principal amount of the Term Loan made on the closing date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, with the balance due in February 2018. The Term Loan also has mandatory and voluntary pre-payment provisions, including a requirement that we prepay the Term Loan with a certain percentage of our annual excess cash flow. We calculated our excess cash flow using fiscal 2013 operating results and concluded that we are not required to make any excess cash flow payments on the Term Loan during fiscal 2014. Our next quarterly payment payable under the Term Loan is due in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.



	The obligations under the Term Loan are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of our assets and those of our 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries. Our 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries also have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Term Loan.

	Notes

	In fiscal 2010, we issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of 9.125% senior notes due in December 2018 (the “Notes”). Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually. If the Company or our subsidiaries sell certain assets, we generally must either invest the net cash proceeds from such sale in our business within a certain period of time, use the proceeds to prepay senior secured debt, or make an offer to purchase a principal amount of the Notes equal to the excess net cash proceeds at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon a change in control, we may also be required to make an offer to purchase all of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Notes also contain optional redemption provisions, but subject to certain exceptions, we will not be entitled to redeem the Notes at our option prior to December 1, 2014. The Notes are unsecured senior obligations of The Gymboree Corporation. The Company’s 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Notes (see Note 17). The guarantees of the Notes are joint and several and will terminate upon the following circumstances: (A) the sale, exchange, disposition or transfer (by merger or otherwise) of (x) the capital stock of the guarantor providing the applicable guarantee, if after such sale, exchange, disposition or transfer such guarantor is no longer a subsidiary of The Gymboree Corporation, or (y) all or substantially all of the assets of such guarantor, (B) the release or discharge of the guarantee by such guarantor of the other indebtedness which resulted in the creation of the subsidiary guarantee by such guarantor under the Indenture, (C) the designation of such guarantor as an “unrestricted subsidiary” under the Indenture or (D) the legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, in each such case specified in clauses (A) through (D) above in accordance with the requirements therefore set forth in the Indenture.

	Interest expense was $20.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013, including $1.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of amortization of deferred financing costs and accretion of original issue discount (“OID”). Accretion of OID was not material for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 or 2013.

Deferred financing costs allocated to the ABL are amortized on a straight-line basis over 6.4 years. The weighted-average remaining amortization period is 4.0 years. Amortization of deferred financing costs is recorded in interest expense and was $1.7 million and $1.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013, respectively.

We believe it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits of $6.6 million as of May 3, 2014 will decrease by as much as $2.0 million during the next twelve months due to the resolution of certain tax contingencies and lapses of applicable statutes of limitations.
	As of May 3, 2014, February 1, 2014 and May 4, 2013, the total valuation allowance against deferred tax assets was $35.5 million, $31.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively. We establish a valuation allowance when it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. We consider all available positive and negative evidence in evaluating whether a valuation allowance is required, including prior earnings history, actual earnings over the previous 12 quarters on a cumulative basis, carryback and carryforward periods, and tax planning strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. We continue to have a valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets in US federal and unitary state jurisdictions, excluding indefinite lived deferred tax liabilities, and against the tax benefit on losses from our VIE’s. We intend to maintain a valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support its reversal.

These reportable segments were identified based on how our business is managed and evaluated by our chief operating decision maker. The retail stores segment includes four operating segments (brands), which sell high-quality apparel for children: Gymboree Retail (including an online store), Gymboree Outlet, Janie and Jack (including an online store), and Crazy 8 (including an online store). These four operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment because these operating segments have similar historical economic characteristics and/or are expected to have similar economic characteristics and similar long-term financial performance in the future. Gross margin is the principal measure we consider in determining whether the economic characteristics are similar. In addition, each operating segment has similar products, production processes and type or class of customer. We believe that disaggregating our operating segments would not provide material additional information. Corporate overhead (costs related to our distribution center and shared corporate services) is included in the retail stores segment.

Gymboree China and Gymboree Tianjin have been determined to be variable interest entities, and we (as well as our 100%-owned subsidiaries) are a member of a related party group that controls the VIEs and absorbs the economics of the VIEs. Based on our relationship with the VIEs, we determined that we are most closely associated with the VIEs, and therefore, consolidate them as the primary beneficiary. However, as we have a 0% ownership interest in the VIEs, 100% of the results of operations of the VIEs are recorded as noncontrolling interest. The assets of the VIEs cannot be used by us. The liabilities of the VIEs are comprised mainly of short-term accrued expenses, and their creditors have no recourse to our general credit or assets.

	The Company’s 100%-owned domestic subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Notes, subject to the customary automatic release provisions described above (see Note 7). The following condensed consolidating financial information presents the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of The Gymboree Corporation and the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries. The VIEs financial results are included in those of the non-guarantor subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions are eliminated.
	Effective during the first quarter of fiscal 2014, our Canadian subsidiary, which is part of the non-guarantor subsidiaries, issued common shares to The Gymboree Corporation valued at $18.5 million. No cash was exchanged since we immediately net settled $15.3 million and $3.2 million of intercompany liabilities payable to The Gymboree Corporation related to business operations and to our Advanced Pricing Agreement, respectively. The $18.5 million is a non-cash investing and financing activity on our condensed consolidating statements of cash flows.

The Company and its guarantor subsidiaries participate in a cash pooling program. As part of this program, cash balances are generally swept on a daily basis between the guarantor subsidiary bank accounts and those of the Company. In addition, we pay expenses on behalf of our guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries on a regular basis. These types of transactions have been accounted for as intercompany transfers within investing and financing activities.
The Company’s transactions include interest, tax payments and intercompany sales transactions related to administrative costs incurred by the Company, which are billed to guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries on a cost plus basis. All intercompany transactions are presumed to be settled in cash and therefore are included in operating activities. Non-operating cash flow changes have been classified as investing and financing activities.
Subsequent to the issuance of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 condensed consolidated financial statements, management determined that within the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows, the intercompany transfers of the guarantor subsidiaries previously presented as financing activities should be classified as investing activities. The classification of these intercompany transfers has been corrected in the above condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the first quarter of May 4, 2013 to be presented within investing activities. This correction has no impact on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the first quarter of May 4, 2013. The effect is summarized as follows:
