Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and critical accounting policies	Organization and critical accounting policies Signet Jewelers Limited (“Signet” or the “Company”), a holding company incorporated in Bermuda, is the world’s largest retailer of diamond jewelry. The Company operates through its 100% owned subsidiaries with sales primarily in the US, UK and Canada. Signet manages its business as five reportable segments: the Sterling Jewelers division, the Zale division, which consists of the Zale Jewelry and Piercing Pagoda segments, the UK Jewelry division and Other. The “Other” reportable segment consists of all non-reportable segments, including subsidiaries involved in the purchasing and conversion of rough diamonds to polished stones and unallocated corporate administrative functions. See Note 4 for additional discussion of the Company’s segments. Signet’s sales are seasonal, with the first quarter slightly exceeding 20% of annual sales, the second and third quarters each approximating 20% and the fourth quarter accounting for almost 40% of annual sales, with December being by far the most important month of the year. The “Holiday Season” consists of results for the months of November and December. As a result, approximately 45% to 55% of Signet’s annual operating income normally occurs in the fourth quarter, comprised of nearly all of the UK Jewelry and Zale divisions’ annual operating income and about 40% to 45% of the Sterling Jewelers division’s annual operating income. The Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. There are no material related party transactions. The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. (a) Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements of Signet are prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) and include the results for the 52 week period ended January 30, 2016 (“ Fiscal 2016 ”), as Signet’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. The comparative periods are for the 52 week period ended January 31, 2015 (“ Fiscal 2015 ”) and the 52 week period ended February 1, 2014 (“ Fiscal 2014 ”). Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. (b) Use of estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements, in conformity with US GAAP and SEC regulations, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are primarily made in relation to the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, deferred revenue, derivatives, employee benefits, income taxes, contingencies, asset impairments, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets as well as accounting for business combinations. The reported results of operations are not indicative of results expected in future periods. (c) Foreign currency translation The financial position and operating results of certain foreign operations, including the UK Jewelry division and the Canadian operations of the Zale Jewelry segment, are consolidated using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at the monthly average rates of exchange during the period. Resulting translation gains or losses are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included within the consolidated income statements, whereas translation adjustments and gains or losses related to intercompany loans of a long-term investment nature are recognized as a component of AOCI. See Note 7 for additional discussion of the Company’s foreign currency translation. (d) Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered, the sale price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenue streams and their respective accounting treatments are discussed below. Merchandise sale and repairs Store sales are recognized when the customer receives and pays for the merchandise at the store with cash, in-house customer finance, private label credit card programs or a third party credit card. For online sales shipped to customers, sales are recognized at the estimated time the customer has received the merchandise. Amounts related to shipping and handling that are billed to customers are reflected in sales and the related costs are reflected in cost of sales. Revenues on the sale of merchandise are reported net of anticipated returns and sales tax collected. Returns are estimated based on previous return rates experienced. Any deposits received from a customer for merchandise are deferred and recognized as revenue when the customer receives the merchandise. Revenues derived from providing replacement merchandise on behalf of insurance organizations are recognized upon receipt of the merchandise by the customer. Revenues on repair of merchandise are recognized when the service is complete and the customer collects the merchandise at the store. Extended service plans and lifetime warranty agreements (“ESP”) The Company recognizes revenue related to lifetime warranty sales in proportion to when the expected costs will be incurred. The deferral period for lifetime warranty sales in each division is determined from patterns of claims costs, including estimates of future claims costs expected to be incurred. Management reviews the trends in claims to assess whether changes are required to the revenue and cost recognition rates utilized. A significant change in estimates related to the time period or pattern in which warranty-related costs are expected to be incurred could materially impact revenues. All direct costs associated with the sale of these plans are deferred and amortized in proportion to the revenue recognized and disclosed as either other current assets or other assets. The Sterling Jewelers division sells extended service plans, subject to certain conditions, to perform repair work over the life of the product. Revenue from the sale of these lifetime extended service plans is recognized consistent with the estimated pattern of claim costs expected to be incurred by the Company in connection with performing under the extended service plan obligations. Based on an evaluation of historical claims data, management currently estimates that substantially all claims will be incurred within 17 years of the sale of the warranty contract. In the second quarter of Fiscal 2016, an operational change related to the Sterling Jewelers division’s extended service plans associated with ring sizing was made to further align Zale and Sterling ESP policies. As a result, revenue from the sale of these lifetime extended service plans in the Sterling Jewelers division is deferred and recognized over 17 years for all plans, with approximately 57% of revenue recognized within the first two years for plans sold on or after May 2, 2015 and 42% of revenue recognized within the first two years for plans sold prior to May 2, 2015 ( January 31, 2015 : 45% ; February 1, 2014 : 45% ). The Zale division also sells extended service plans. Zale Jewelry customers are offered lifetime warranties on certain products that cover sizing and breakage with an option to purchase theft protection for a two-year period. Revenue from the sale of lifetime extended service plans is deferred and recognized over 10 years, with approximately 69% of revenue recognized within the first two years (January 31, 2015: 69% ). Revenues related to the optional theft protection are deferred and recognized in proportion to when the expected claims costs will be incurred over the two-year contract period. Zale Jewelry customers are also offered a two-year watch warranty and a one-year warranty that covers breakage. Piercing Pagoda customers are also offered a one-year warranty that covers breakage. Revenue from the two-year watch warranty and one-year breakage warranty is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective contract terms. The Sterling Jewelers division also sells a Jewelry Replacement Plan (“JRP”). The JRP is designed to protect customers from damage or defects of purchased merchandise for a period of three years. If the purchased merchandise is defective or becomes damaged under normal use in that time period, the item will be replaced. JRP revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of expected claims costs. Signet also sells warranty agreements in the capacity of an agent on behalf of a third-party. The commission that Signet receives from the third-party is recognized at the time of sale less an estimate of cancellations based on historical experience. Sale vouchers Certain promotional offers award sale vouchers to customers who make purchases above a certain value, which grant a fixed discount on a future purchase within a stated time frame. The Company accounts for such vouchers by allocating the fair value of the voucher between the initial purchase and the future purchase using the relative-selling-price method. Sale vouchers are not sold on a stand-alone basis. The fair value of the voucher is determined based on the average sales transactions in which the vouchers were issued, when the vouchers are expected to be redeemed and the estimated voucher redemption rate. The fair value allocated to the future purchase is recorded as deferred revenue. Consignment inventory sales Sales of consignment inventory are accounted for on a gross sales basis as the Company is the primary obligor providing independent advice, guidance and after-sales service to customers. The products sold from consignment inventory are indistinguishable from other products that are sold to customers and are sold on the same terms. Supplier products are selected at the discretion of the Company. The Company is responsible for determining the selling price, physical security of the products and collections of accounts receivable. (e) Cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses Cost of sales includes merchandise costs net of discounts and allowances, freight, processing and distribution costs of moving merchandise from suppliers to distribution centers and stores, inventory shrinkage, store operating and occupancy costs, net bad debts and charges for late payments under the in-house customer finance programs. Store operating and occupancy costs include utilities, rent, real estate taxes, common area maintenance charges and depreciation. Selling, general and administrative expenses include store staff and store administrative costs; centralized administrative expenses, including information technology, credit and eCommerce; advertising and promotional costs and other operating expenses not specifically categorized elsewhere in the consolidated income statements. Compensation and benefits costs included within cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses were as follows: (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Wages and salaries $ 1,222.8 $ 1,095.6 $ 753.3 Payroll taxes 101.1 91.8 65.8 Employee benefit plans expense 17.5 9.6 10.2 Share-based compensation expense 16.4 12.1 14.4 Total compensation and benefits $ 1,357.8 $ 1,209.1 $ 843.7 (f ) Store opening costs The opening costs of new locations are expensed as incurred. (g) Advertising and promotional costs Advertising and promotional costs are expensed within selling, general and administrative expenses. Production costs are expensed at the first communication of the advertisements, while communication expenses are recognized each time the advertisement is communicated. For catalogs and circulars, costs are all expensed at the first date they can be viewed by the customer. Point of sale promotional material is expensed when first displayed in the stores. Gross advertising costs totaled $384.2 million in Fiscal 2016 ( Fiscal 2015 : $333.0 million ; Fiscal 2014 : $253.8 million ). (h) In-house customer finance programs Sterling Jewelers division operates customer in-house finance programs that allow customers to finance merchandise purchases from its stores. Finance charges are recognized in accordance with the contractual agreements. Gross interest earned is recorded as other operating income in the consolidated income statements. See Note 9 for additional discussion of the Company’s other operating income. In addition to interest-bearing accounts, a portion of credit sales are made using interest-free financing for one year or less, subject to certain conditions. Accrual of interest is suspended when accounts become more than 90 days aged on a recency basis. Upon suspension of the accrual of interest, interest income is subsequently recognized to the extent cash payments are received. Accrual of interest is resumed when receivables are removed from the non-accrual status. (i) Income taxes Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized by applying statutory tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences between the financial reporting and tax filing bases of existing assets and liabilities are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company does not recognize tax benefits related to positions taken on certain tax matters unless the position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. At any point in time, various tax years are subject to or are in the process of being audited by various taxing authorities. The Company records a reserve for uncertain tax positions, including interest. To the extent that management’s estimates of settlements change, or the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determinations are made. See Note 8 for additional discussion of the Company’s income taxes. (j) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash on hand, money market deposits and amounts placed with external fund managers with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. In addition, receivables from third-party credit card issuers typically converted to cash within 5 days of the original sales transaction are considered cash equivalents. Additional detail regarding the composition of cash and cash equivalents as of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 follows: (in millions) January 30, 2016 January 31, 2015 Cash and cash equivalents held in money markets and other accounts $ 100.4 $ 153.5 Cash equivalents from third-party credit card issuers 35.4 38.2 Cash on hand 1.9 1.9 Total cash and cash equivalents $ 137.7 $ 193.6 (k) Accounts receivable Accounts receivable under the customer finance programs are presented net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts. This allowance represents management’s estimate of the expected losses in the accounts receivable portfolio as of the balance sheet date, and is calculated using a model that analyzes factors such as delinquency rates and recovery rates. An allowance for amounts 90 days aged and under on a recency basis is established based on historical loss experience and payment performance information. A 100% allowance is made for any amount aged more than 90 days on a recency basis and any amount associated with an account the owner of which has filed for bankruptcy. Signet’s recency method of aging has been in place and unchanged since the inception of the in-house consumer financing program. The delinquency level is measured by the number of days since the last qualifying payment was received, with the qualifying payment increasing with delinquency level. The average minimum scheduled payment on a customer account is 9% . The minimum payment does not decline as the balance declines. These two facts combined (higher scheduled payment requirement and no decline in payment requirement as balance decreases) allow Signet to collect on the receivable significantly faster than other retail/bank card accounts, reducing risk and more quickly freeing up customer open to buy for additional purchases. See Note 10 for additional discussion of the Company’s accounts receivables. (l) Inventories Inventories are primarily held for resale and are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using weighted-average cost for all inventories except for inventories held in the Company’s diamond sourcing operations where cost is determined using specific identification. Cost includes charges directly related to bringing inventory to its present location and condition. Such charges would include warehousing, security, distribution and certain buying costs. Market value is defined as estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. Inventory write-downs are recorded for obsolete, slow moving or defective items and shrinkage. Inventory write-downs are equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated market value based upon assumptions of targeted inventory turn rates, future demand, management strategy and market conditions. Shrinkage is estimated and recorded based on historical physical inventory results, expectations of future inventory losses and current inventory levels. Physical inventories are taken at least once annually for all store locations and distribution centers. See Note 11 for additional discussion of the Company’s inventories. (m) Vendor contributions Contributions are received from vendors through various programs and arrangements including cooperative advertising. Where vendor contributions related to identifiable promotional events are received, contributions are matched against the costs of promotions. Vendor contributions, which are received as general contributions and not related to specific promotional events, are recognized as a reduction of inventory costs. (n) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recognized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows: Buildings 30 – 40 years when land is owned or the remaining term of lease, not to exceed 40 years Leasehold improvements Remaining term of lease, not to exceed 10 years Furniture and fixtures Ranging from 3 – 10 years Equipment, including software Ranging from 3 – 5 years Equipment, which includes computer software purchased or developed for internal use, is stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Signet’s policy provides for the capitalization of external direct costs of materials and services associated with developing or obtaining internal use computer software. In addition, Signet also capitalizes certain payroll and payroll-related costs for employees directly associated with internal use computer projects. Amortization is charged on a straight-line basis over periods from three to five years. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Potentially impaired assets or asset groups are identified by reviewing the cash flows of individual stores. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the undiscounted cash flow is less than the asset’s carrying amount, the impairment charge recognized is determined by estimating the fair value of the assets and recording a loss for the amount that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Property and equipment at stores planned for closure are depreciated over a revised estimate of their useful lives. See Note 12 for additional discussion of the Company’s property, plant and equipment. (o) Goodwill and intangibles In a business combination, the Company estimates and records the fair value of identifiable intangible assets and liabilities acquired. The fair value of these intangible assets and liabilities is estimated based on management’s assessment, including determination of appropriate valuation technique and consideration of any third party appraisals, when necessary. Significant estimates in valuing intangible assets and liabilities acquired include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows associated with the acquired asset or liability, expected life and discount rates. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Goodwill is recorded by the Company’s reporting units based on the acquisitions made by each. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually and more frequently if indicators of impairment arise. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value (including goodwill). If the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then no further testing is required. However, if the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the two-step goodwill impairment test is performed to identify a potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of impairment to be recognized, if any. The annual testing date for goodwill allocated to the Sterling Jewelers reporting unit is the last day of the fourth quarter. The annual testing date for goodwill allocated to the reporting units associated with the Zale division acquisition and the Other reporting unit is May 31. There have been no goodwill impairment charges recorded during the fiscal periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. If future economic conditions are different than those projected by management, future impairment charges may be required. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized and reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset are less than the carrying amount, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment each year in the second quarter and may be reviewed more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company estimates the fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset, compares that value with its carrying amount and records an impairment charge, if any. If future economic conditions are different than those projected by management, future impairment charges may be required. See Note 13 for additional discussion of the Company’s goodwill and intangibles. (p) Derivatives and hedge accounting The Company enters into various types of derivative instruments to mitigate certain risk exposures related to changes in commodity costs and foreign exchange rates. Derivative instruments are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, as either assets or liabilities, with an offset to net income or other comprehensive income (“OCI”), depending on whether the derivative qualifies as an effective hedge. If a derivative instrument meets certain criteria, it may be designated as a cash flow hedge on the date it is entered into. For cash flow hedge transactions, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized directly in equity as a component of AOCI and is recognized in the consolidated income statements in the same period(s) and on the same financial statement line in which the hedged item affects net income. Amounts excluded from the effectiveness calculation and any ineffective portions of the change in fair value of the derivatives are recognized immediately in other operating income, net in the consolidated income statements. In addition, gains and losses on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in other operating income, net. In the normal course of business, the Company may terminate cash flow hedges prior to the occurrence of the underlying forecasted transaction. For cash flow hedges terminated prior to the occurrence of the underlying forecasted transaction, management monitors the probability of the associated forecasted cash flow transactions to assess whether any gain or loss recorded in AOCI should be immediately recognized in net income. Cash flows from derivative contracts are included in net cash provided by operating activities. See Note 16 for additional discussion of the Company’s derivatives and hedge activities. (q) Employee Benefits Signet operates a defined benefit pension plan in the UK (the “UK Plan”) which ceased to admit new employees effective April 2004. The UK Plan provides benefits to participating eligible employees. Beginning in Fiscal 2014, a change to the benefit structure was implemented and members’ benefits that accumulate after that date are now based upon career average salaries, whereas previously, all benefits were based on salaries at retirement. The UK Plan’s assets are held by the UK Plan. The net periodic pension cost of the UK Plan is measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. Other material assumptions include rates of participant mortality, the expected long-term rate of compensation and pension increases, and rates of employee attrition. Gains and losses occur when actual experience differs from actuarial assumptions. If such gains or losses exceed 10% of the greater of plan assets or plan liabilities, Signet amortizes those gains or losses over the average remaining service period of the employees. The net periodic pension cost is charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements. The funded status of the UK Plan is recognized on the balance sheet, and is the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation measured at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise and not included as components of net periodic pension cost are recognized, net of tax, in OCI. Signet also operates a defined contribution plan in the UK and a defined contribution retirement savings plan in the US. Contributions made by Signet to these pension arrangements are charged primarily to selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements as incurred. See Note 18 for additional discussion of the Company’s employee benefits. (r) Borrowing costs Borrowings include interest-bearing bank loans, accounts receivable securitization program and bank overdrafts. Borrowing costs are capitalized and amortized into interest expense over the contractual term of the related loan. See Note 19 for additional discussion of the Company’s borrowing costs. (s) Share-based compensation Signet measures share-based compensation cost for awards classified as equity at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognizes the cost as an expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period of employees. Certain share plans include a condition whereby vesting is contingent on growth exceeding a given target, and therefore awards granted with this condition are considered to be performance-based awards. Signet estimates fair value using a Black-Scholes model for awards granted under the Omnibus Plan and the binomial valuation model for awards granted under the Share Saving Plans. Deferred tax assets for awards that result in deductions on the income tax returns of subsidiaries are recorded by Signet based on the amount of compensation cost recognized and the subsidiaries’ statutory tax rate in the jurisdiction in which it will receive a deduction. Differences between the deferred tax assets recognized for financial reporting purposes and the actual tax deduction reported on the subsidiaries’ income tax return are recorded in additional paid-in-capital (if the tax deduction exceeds the deferred tax asset) or in the income statement (if the deferred tax asset exceeds the tax deduction and no additional paid-in-capital exists from previous awards). Share-based compensation is primarily recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements, along with the relevant salary cost. See Note 23 for additional discussion of the Company’s share-based compensation plans. (t) Contingent liabilities Provisions for contingent liabilities are recorded for probable losses when management is able to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss. When it is reasonably possible that a contingent liability may result in a loss or additional loss, the range of the loss is disclosed. See Note 24 for additional discussion of the Company’s contingencies. (u) Leases Signet’s operating leases generally include retail store locations. Certain operating leases include predetermined rent increases, which are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including any construction period or other rental holiday. Other amounts paid under operating leases, such as contingent rentals, taxes and common area maintenance, are charged to the income statement as incurred. Premiums paid to acquire short-term leasehold properties and inducements to enter into a lease are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, certain leases provide for contingent rentals that are not measurable at inception. These contingent rentals are primarily based on a percentage of sales in excess of a predetermined level. These amounts are excluded from minimum rent and are included in the determination of rent expense when it is probable that the expense has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. See Note 24 for additional discussion of the Company’s leases. (v) Common shares New shares are recorded in common shares at their par value when issued. The excess of the issue price over the par value is recorded in additional paid-in capital. (w) Dividends Dividends are reflected as a reduction of retained earnings in the period in which they are formally declared by the Board of Directors (the “Board”).

New Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Pronouncements	12 Months Ended
	Jan. 30, 2016
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
New accounting pronouncements	New accounting pronouncements New accounting pronouncements adopted during the period Income Taxes In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. ASU No. 2015-17 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Signet adopted ASU 2015-17 during Fiscal 2016 and applied the standard retrospectively. Accordingly, Signet has adjusted the consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2015 to reflect the reclassifications required as follows: January 31, 2015 (in millions) As previously reported As currently reported Reclassifications Current assets $ 4.5 $ — $ (4.5 ) Current liabilities (145.8 ) — 145.8 Non-current assets 111.1 2.3 (108.8 ) Non-current liabilities (21.0 ) (53.5 ) (32.5 ) Deferred tax assets (liabilities) $ (51.2 ) $ (51.2 ) $ — New accounting pronouncements to be adopted in future periods Revenue recognition In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The new guidance affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, insurance contracts or lease contracts). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 provides alternative methods of retrospective adoption. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers-Deferral of the Effective Date.” The new guidance defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. As a result, ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that annual period. Signet is currently assessing the impact, if any, as well as the available methods of implementation, that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Share-based compensation In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” The new guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. ASU No. 2014-12 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The standard is effective for Signet in the first quarter of Fiscal 2017. Signet does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Debt issuance costs In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” The new guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” The new guidance provides clarity that the SEC would not object to the deferral and presentation of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. ASU Nos. 2015-03 and 2015-15 are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The standard is effective for Signet in the first quarter of Fiscal 2017. At January 30, 2016, Signet had unamortized debt issuance costs, excluding amounts related to the Company’s revolving credit facility agreement, of $9.9 million recorded as assets in the consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are expected to be reclassified as direct deductions from the related long-term debt upon adoption. The Company also expects to continue presenting debt issuance costs relating to its revolving credit facility as an asset. Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The new guidance states that inventory will be measured at the “lower of cost and net realizable value” and options that currently exist for “market value” will be eliminated. The ASU defines net realizable value as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.” No other changes were made to the current guidance on inventory measurement. ASU 2015-11 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied prospectively. Signet is currently assessing the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Financial instruments In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” The new guidance primarily impacts accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities under the fair value option, as well as, the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Under the new guidance, equity investments will generally be measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Signet does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The new guidance primarily impacts lessee accounting by requiring the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for long-term lease agreements. The lease liability will be equal to the present value of all reasonably certain lease payments. The right-of-use asset will be based on the liability, subject to adjustment for initial direct costs. Lease agreements that are 12 months or less are permitted to be excluded from the balance sheet. In general, leases will be amortized on a straight-line basis with the exception of finance lease agreements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Signet is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Liabilities In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-04, “Liabilities - Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20).” The new guidance addresses diversity in practice related to the derecognition of a prepaid stored-value product liability. Liabilities related to the sale of prepaid stored-value products within the scope of this update are financial liabilities. ASU 2016-04 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Signet does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Acquisitions

Acquisitions	12 Months Ended
	Jan. 30, 2016
Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	Acquisitions Zale Corporation On May 29, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Zale Corporation, making the entity a wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary of Signet (the “Zale Acquisition” or “Acquisition”). Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, Zale Corporation shareholders received $ 21 per share in cash for each outstanding share of common stock and the vesting, upon consummation of the Acquisition, of certain outstanding Zale Corporation restricted stock units and stock options, which converted into the right to receive the merger consideration of $1,458.0 million , including $478.2 million to extinguish Zale Corporation’s existing debt. The Acquisition was funded by the Company through existing cash and the issuance of $1,400.0 million of long-term debt, including: (a) $400.0 million of senior unsecured notes due in 2024, (b) $600.0 million of two -year revolving asset-backed variable funding notes, and (c) a $400.0 million five -year senior unsecured term loan facility. See Note 19 for additional information related to the Company’s long-term debt instruments. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination during the second quarter of Fiscal 2015. The Acquisition aligns with the Company’s strategy to expand its footprint. The following table summarizes the consideration transferred in conjunction with the Acquisition as of May 29, 2014: (in millions, except per share amounts) Amount Cash consideration paid to Zale Corporation shareholders ($21 per share) $ 910.2 Cash consideration paid for settlement of Zale Corporation stock options, restricted share awards and long term incentive plan awards 69.6 Cash paid to extinguish Zale Corporation outstanding debt as of May 29, 2014 478.2 Total consideration transferred $ 1,458.0 Under the acquisition method of accounting, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at acquisition date fair values. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2015, the Company finalized the valuation of net assets acquired. The following table summarizes the fair values identified for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Acquisition as of May 29, 2014: (in millions) Fair values Cash and cash equivalents $ 28.8 Inventories 856.7 Other current assets 22.4 Property, plant and equipment 103.6 Intangible assets: Trade names 417.0 Favorable leases 50.2 Deferred tax assets 132.8 Other assets 25.4 Current liabilities (1) (206.3 ) Deferred revenue (93.3 ) Unfavorable leases (50.5 ) Unfavorable contracts (65.6 ) Deferred tax liabilities (234.0 ) Other liabilities (28.6 ) Fair value of net assets acquired 958.6 Goodwill 499.4 Total consideration transferred $ 1,458.0 (1) Includes loans and overdrafts, accounts payable, income taxes payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill. The goodwill attributable to the Acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. See Note 13 for additional discussion of the Company’s goodwill. The following unaudited consolidated pro forma information summarizes the results of operations of the Company as if the Acquisition and related issuance of $1,400.0 million of long-term debt (see Note 19) had occurred as of February 2, 2013. The unaudited consolidated pro forma financial information was prepared in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting under existing standards and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred if the Acquisition had been completed on the date indicated, nor is it indicative of the future operating results of the Company. (in millions, except per share amounts) Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Pro forma sales $ 6,325.1 $ 6,039.9 Pro forma net income $ 462.1 $ 361.9 Pro forma earnings per share – basic $ 5.78 $ 4.51 Pro forma earnings per share – diluted $ 5.76 $ 4.48 The unaudited pro forma information gives effect to actual operating results prior to the Acquisition and has been adjusted with respect to certain aspects of the Acquisition to reflect the following: • Acquisition accounting adjustments to reset deferred revenue associated with extended service plans sold by Zale Corporation prior to the Acquisition to fair value as of the acquisition date. The fair value of deferred revenue is determined based on the estimated costs remaining to be incurred for future obligations associated with the outstanding plans at the time of the Acquisition, plus a reasonable profit margin on the estimated costs. These adjustments also reflect the impact of deferring the revenue associated with the lifetime extended service plans over a 10 -year period as disclosed in Note 1. • Additional depreciation and amortization expenses that would have been recognized assuming fair value adjustments to the existing Zale Corporation assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including intangible assets, favorable and unfavorable leases, and unfavorable contracts and expense associated with the fair value step-up of inventory acquired. • Tax impact of the Company’s amended capital structure as a result of the Acquisition and related issuance of $1,400.0 million of long-term debt. • Adjustment of valuation allowances associated with US and Canadian deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards. • Exclusion of acquisition-related costs of $58.0 million , which were included in the Company’s results of operations for the year ended January 31, 2015, respectively. Also excluded were costs associated with the unsecured bridge facility discussed in Note 19 of $4.0 million , which were expensed in Fiscal 2015. All amounts were reported within the Other segment. The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect future events that either have occurred or may occur after the Acquisition, including, but not limited to, the anticipated realization of expected operating synergies in subsequent periods. They also do not give effect to acquisition-related costs that the Company expects to incur in connection with the Acquisition, including, but not limited to, additional professional fees, employee integration, retention and severance costs. Botswana diamond polishing factory On November 4, 2013, Signet acquired a diamond polishing factory in Gaborone, Botswana for $9.1 million . The acquisition expands the Company’s long-term diamond sourcing capabilities and provides resources for the Company to cut and polish stones. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2014. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2015, the Company finalized the valuation of net assets acquired. There were no material changes to the valuation of net assets acquired from the initial allocation reported during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2014. The total consideration paid by the Company was funded through existing cash and allocated to the net assets acquired based on the final fair values as follows: property, plant and equipment acquired of $5.5 million and goodwill of $3.6 million . See Note 13 for additional information related to goodwill. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. The results of operations related to the acquired diamond polishing factory are reported within the Other reportable segment of Signet’s consolidated results. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented, as the impact to the Company’s consolidated financial results was not material.

Segment Information

Segment Information	12 Months Ended

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment information	Segment information Financial information for each of Signet’s reportable segments is presented in the tables below. Signet’s chief operating decision maker utilizes sales and operating income, after the elimination of any inter-segment transactions, to determine resource allocations and performance assessment measures. Signet’s sales are derived from the retailing of jewelry, watches, other products and services as generated through the management of its five reportable segments: the Sterling Jewelers division, the Zale division, which consists of the Zale Jewelry and Piercing Pagoda segments, the UK Jewelry division and Other. The Sterling Jewelers division operates in all 50 US states. Its stores operate nationally in malls and off-mall locations as Kay Jewelers and Kay Jewelers Outlet and regionally under a number of well-established mall-based brands. Destination superstores operate nationwide as Jared The Galleria Of Jewelry (“Jared”) and Jared Vault. The Zale division operates jewelry stores (Zale Jewelry) and kiosks (Piercing Pagoda), located primarily in shopping malls throughout the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. Zale Jewelry includes national brands Zales Jewelers, Zales Outlet and Peoples Jewellers, along with regional brands Gordon’s Jewelers and Mappins Jewellers. Piercing Pagoda operates through mall-based kiosks. The UK Jewelry division operates stores in the UK, Republic of Ireland and Channel Islands.

The consideration received for common shares relating to options issued during the year was $5.0 million ( Fiscal 2015 : $6.1 million ; Fiscal 2014 : $9.3 million ). Treasury shares Signet may from time to time repurchase common shares under various share repurchase programs authorized by Signet’s Board. Repurchases may be made in the open market, through block trades or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company at its discretion, and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock prices, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The repurchase programs are funded through Signet’s existing cash reserves and liquidity sources. Repurchased shares are held as treasury shares and may be used by Signet for general corporate purposes. Treasury shares represent the cost of shares that the Company purchased in the market under the applicable authorized repurchase program, shares forfeited under the Omnibus Incentive Plan and those previously held by the Employee Stock Ownership Trust (“ESOT”) to satisfy options under the Company’s share option plans. Shares held in treasury by the Company were 7,746,591 and 6,933,684 for Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. Shares were reissued in the amounts of 205,661 and 309,305 , net of taxes and forfeitures, in Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively, to satisfy awards outstanding under existing share-based compensation plans.

Signet’s future effective tax rate is dependent on changes in the geographic mix of income and the movement in foreign exchange translation rates.

Deferred tax assets associated with foreign tax credits also subject to Section 382 of the IRC total $13.7 million as of January 30, 2016 which expire between 2016 and 2024 and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $10.8 million which expire between 2018 and 2036. Additionally, Signet had foreign capital loss carry forward deferred tax assets of $13.4 million ( Fiscal 2015 : $15.0 million ), which are only available to offset future capital gains, if any, over an indefinite period. The decrease in the total valuation allowance in Fiscal 2016 was $0.5 million ( Fiscal 2015 : $7.5 million net increase; Fiscal 2014 : $0.7 million net decrease). The valuation allowance primarily relates to foreign capital and trading loss carry forwards, foreign tax credits and net operating losses that, in the judgment of management, are not more likely than not to be realized. Signet believes that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets not subject to a valuation allowance as of January 30, 2016 will be offset where permissible by deferred tax liabilities or realized on future tax returns, primarily from the generation of future taxable income. Signet has business activity in all states within the US and files income tax returns for the US federal jurisdiction and all applicable states. Signet also files income tax returns in the UK, Canada and certain other foreign jurisdictions. Signet is subject to examinations by the US federal and state and Canadian tax authorities for tax years ending after November 1, 2010 and is subject to examination by the UK tax authority for tax years ending after February 1, 2014. As of January 30, 2016 , Signet had approximately $11.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits in respect to uncertain tax positions. The unrecognized tax benefits relate primarily to financing arrangements and intra-group charges which are subject to different and changing interpretations of tax law. If all of these unrecognized tax benefits were settled in Signet's favor, the effective income tax rate would be favorably impacted by $10.3 million . Signet recognizes accrued interest and, where appropriate, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within income tax expense. As of January 30, 2016 , Signet had accrued interest of $1.9 million and $0.7 million of accrued penalties. Over the next twelve months management believes that it is reasonably possible that there could be a reduction of substantially all of the unrecognized tax benefits as of January 30, 2016 due to settlement of the uncertain tax positions with the tax authorities. The following table summarizes the activity related to unrecognized tax benefits: (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Unrecognized tax benefits, beginning of period $ 11.4 $ 4.6 $ 4.5 Acquired existing unrecognized tax benefits — 4.3 — Increases related to current year tax positions 2.0 3.5 0.4 Prior year tax positions: Increases — — 0.2 Decreases — (0.1 ) — Cash settlements — — (0.5 ) Lapse of statute of limitations (1.9 ) (0.4 ) — Difference on foreign currency translation (0.1 ) (0.5 ) — Unrecognized tax benefits, end of period $ 11.4 $ 11.4 $ 4.6

On an ongoing basis, management monitors the credit exposure based on past due status and collection experience, as it has found a meaningful correlation between the past due status of customers and the risk of loss. During the third quarter of Fiscal 2016, Signet implemented a program to provide in-house credit to customers in the Zale division’s US locations (“second look”). The resulting accounts receivable balance and allowance for doubtful accounts was immaterial as of January 30, 2016 . The credit function for the Zale division was outsourced during Fiscal 2015 and, as such, no accounts receivable exist as of January 31, 2015 .

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivatives	Derivatives Derivative transactions are used by Signet for risk management purposes to address risks inherent in Signet’s business operations and sources of financing. The main risks arising from Signet’s operations are market risk including foreign currency risk, commodity risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. Signet uses derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate these risks under policies reviewed and approved by the Board. Signet does not enter into derivative transactions for trading purposes. Market risk Signet generates revenues and incurs expenses in US dollars, Canadian dollars and British pounds. As a portion of UK Jewelry purchases and purchases made by the Canadian operations of the Zale division are denominated in US dollars, Signet enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts, foreign currency option contracts and foreign currency swaps to manage these exposures to the US dollar. Signet holds a fluctuating amount of British pounds and Canadian dollars reflecting the cash generative characteristics of operations. Signet’s objective is to minimize net foreign exchange exposure to the income statement on non-US dollar denominated items through managing cash levels, non-US dollar denominated intra-entity balances and foreign currency swaps. In order to manage the foreign exchange exposure and minimize the level of funds denominated in British pounds and Canadian dollars, dividends are paid regularly by subsidiaries to their immediate holding companies and excess British pounds and Canadian dollars are sold in exchange for US dollars. Signet’s policy is to minimize the impact of precious metal commodity price volatility on operating results through the use of outright forward purchases of, or by entering into options to purchase, precious metals within treasury guidelines approved by the Board. In particular, Signet undertakes some hedging of its requirements for gold through the use of options, net zero-cost collar arrangements (a combination of call and put option contracts), forward contracts and commodity purchasing, while fluctuations in the cost of diamonds are not hedged. Liquidity risk Signet’s objective is to ensure that it has access to, or the ability to generate sufficient cash from either internal or external sources in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet its commitments as they become due and payable. Signet manages liquidity risks as part of its overall risk management policy. Management produces forecasting and budgeting information that is reviewed and monitored by the Board. Cash generated from operations and external financing are the main sources of funding supplementing Signet’s resources in meeting liquidity requirements. The main external sources of financing are a senior unsecured credit facility, senior unsecured notes and securitized credit card receivables, as described in Note 19. Interest rate risk Signet has exposure to movements in interest rates associated with cash and borrowings. Signet may enter into various interest rate protection agreements in order to limit the impact of movements in interest rates. Interest rate swap (designated) — This contract was entered into to reduce the consolidated interest rate risk associated with variable rate, long-term debt. The Company designates this derivative as a cash flow hedge of the variability in expected cash outflows of interest payments. The Company entered into an interest rate swap in March 2015 with an aggregate notional amount of $300.0 million that is scheduled to mature through April 2019 . Under this contract, the Company agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional amounts. The Company has effectively converted a portion of its variable-rate senior unsecured term loan into fixed-rate debt. The fair value of the swap is presented within the consolidated balance sheets, and the Company recognizes any changes in the fair value as an adjustment of AOCI within equity to the extent the swap is effective. The ineffective portion, if any, is recognized in current period earnings. As interest expense is accrued on the debt obligation, amounts in AOCI related to the interest rate swap are reclassified into income resulting in a net interest expense on the hedged amount of the underlying debt obligation equal to the effective yield of the fixed rate of the swap. In the event that the interest rate swap is dedesignated prior to maturity, gains or losses in AOCI remain deferred and are reclassified into earnings in the periods in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Credit risk and concentrations of credit risk Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed to perform as contracted. Signet does not anticipate non-performance by counterparties of its financial instruments, except for customer in-house financing receivables as disclosed in Note 10 of which no single customer represents a significant portion of the Company’s receivable balance. Signet does not require collateral or other security to support cash investments or financial instruments with credit risk; however, it is Signet’s policy to only hold cash and cash equivalent investments and to transact financial instruments with financial institutions with a certain minimum credit rating. Management does not believe Signet is exposed to any significant concentrations of credit risk that arise from cash and cash equivalent investments, derivatives or accounts receivable. Commodity and foreign currency risks The following types of derivative financial instruments are utilized by Signet to mitigate certain risk exposures related to changes in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates: Forward foreign currency exchange contracts (designated) — These contracts, which are principally in US dollars, are entered into to limit the impact of movements in foreign exchange rates on forecasted foreign currency purchases. The total notional amount of these foreign currency contracts outstanding as of January 30, 2016 was $10.7 million ( January 31, 2015 : $23.5 million ). These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges and will be settled over the next 6 months ( January 31, 2015 : 12 months ). Forward foreign currency exchange contracts (undesignated) — Foreign currency contracts not designated as cash flow hedges are used to limit the impact of movements in foreign exchange rates on recognized foreign currency payables and to hedge currency flows through Signet’s bank accounts to mitigate Signet’s exposure to foreign currency exchange risk in its cash and borrowings. The total notional amount of these foreign currency contracts outstanding as of January 30, 2016 was $32.0 million ( January 31, 2015 : $40.3 million ). Commodity forward purchase contracts and net zero-cost collar arrangements (designated) — These contracts are entered into to reduce Signet’s exposure to significant movements in the price of the underlying precious metal raw material. The total notional amount of these commodity derivative contracts outstanding as of January 30, 2016 was for approximately 76,000 ounces of gold ( January 31, 2015 : 81,000 ounces ). These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges and will be settled over the next 12 months ( January 31, 2015 : 11 months ). The bank counterparties to the derivative instruments expose Signet to credit-related losses in the event of their non-performance. However, to mitigate that risk, Signet only contracts with counterparties that meet certain minimum requirements under its counterparty risk assessment process. As of January 30, 2016 , Signet believes that this credit risk did not materially change the fair value of the foreign currency or commodity contracts.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair value measurement	Fair value measurement The estimated fair value of Signet’s financial instruments held or issued to finance Signet’s operations is summarized below. Certain estimates and judgments were required to develop the fair value amounts. The fair value amounts shown below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that Signet would realize upon disposition nor do they indicate Signet’s intent or ability to dispose of the financial instrument. Assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value are required to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1—quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 2—observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data Level 3—unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data Signet determines fair value based upon quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the investment. The methods Signet uses to determine fair value on an instrument-specific basis are detailed below: January 30, 2016 January 31, 2015 (in millions) Carrying Value Quoted prices in Significant Carrying Value Quoted prices in Significant Assets: US Treasury securities $ 8.8 $ 8.8 $ — $ 9.6 $ 9.6 $ — Corporate equity securities 3.2 3.2 — 3.4 3.4 — Foreign currency contracts 0.8 — 0.8 1.1 — 1.1 Commodity contracts 0.6 — 0.6 6.3 — 6.3 US government agency securities 4.0 — 4.0 1.4 — 1.4 Corporate bonds and notes 10.8 — 10.8 10.8 — 10.8 Total Assets $ 28.2 $ 12.0 $ 16.2 $ 32.6 $ 13.0 $ 19.6 Liabilities: Foreign currency contracts $ (0.2 ) $ — $ (0.2 ) $ — $ — $ — Commodity contracts (0.8 ) — (0.8 ) — — — Interest rate swaps (3.4 ) — (3.4 ) — — — Total Liabilities $ (4.4 ) $ — $ (4.4 ) $ — $ — $ — Investments in US Treasury securities and corporate equity securities are based on quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets, and therefore were classified as Level 1 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. Investments in US government agency securities and corporate bonds and notes are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and therefore were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 15 for additional information related to the Company’s available-for-sale investments. The fair values of derivative financial instruments have been determined based on market value equivalents at the balance sheet date, taking into account the current interest rate environment, foreign currency forward rates or commodity forward rates, and therefore were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 16 for additional information related to the Company’s derivatives. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these amounts. The fair values of long-term debt instruments were determined using quoted market prices in inactive markets or discounted cash flows based upon current observable market interest rates and therefore were classified as Level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 19 for classification between current and long-term debt. The carrying amount and fair value of outstanding debt at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 were as follows: Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 (in millions) Carrying Fair Value Carrying Fair Value Outstanding debt: Senior notes (Level 2) $ 398.6 $ 405.9 $ 398.5 $ 415.3 Securitization facility (Level 2) 600.0 600.0 600.0 600.0 Term loan (Level 2) 365.0 365.0 390.0 390.0 Capital lease obligations (Level 2) 0.2 0.2 1.2 1.2 Total outstanding debt $ 1,363.8 $ 1,371.1 $ 1,389.7 $ 1,406.5

Pension plans	Pension plans The UK Plan, which ceased to admit new employees from April 2004, is a funded plan with assets held in a separate trustee administered fund, which is independently managed. Signet used January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 measurement dates in determining the UK Plan’s benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets. The following tables provide information concerning the UK Plan as of and for the fiscal years ended January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 : (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Change in UK Plan assets: Fair value at beginning of year $ 295.8 $ 282.6 Actual return on UK Plan assets (4.8 ) 43.9 Employer contributions 2.5 4.2 Members’ contributions 0.7 0.7 Benefits paid (11.2 ) (10.2 ) Foreign currency changes (16.8 ) (25.4 ) Fair value at end of year $ 266.2 $ 295.8 (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Change in benefit obligation: Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 258.8 $ 226.3 Service cost 2.6 2.3 Past service cost 0.6 0.9 Interest cost 7.7 9.7 Members’ contributions 0.7 0.7 Actuarial (gain) loss (29.4 ) 47.5 Benefits paid (11.2 ) (10.2 ) Foreign currency changes (14.9 ) (18.4 ) Benefit obligation at end of year $ 214.9 $ 258.8 Funded status at end of year: UK Plan assets less benefit obligation $ 51.3 $ 37.0 (in millions) January 30, 2016 January 31, 2015 Amounts recognized in the balance sheet consist of: Non-current assets $ 51.3 $ 37.0 Non-current liabilities — — Net asset recognized $ 51.3 $ 37.0 Items in AOCI not yet recognized as income (expense) in the income statement: (in millions) January 30, 2016 January 31, 2015 February 1, 2014 Net actuarial losses $ (43.1 ) $ (56.7 ) $ (42.5 ) Net prior service credits 11.1 13.3 15.3 The estimated actuarial loss and prior service credit for the UK Plan that will be amortized from AOCI into net periodic pension cost over the next fiscal year are $1.6 million and $(2.0) million , respectively. The accumulated benefit obligation for the UK Plan was $204.2 million and $245.2 million at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 , respectively. The components of net periodic pension cost and other amounts recognized in OCI for the UK Plan are as follows: (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Components of net periodic pension cost: Service cost $ (2.6 ) $ (2.3 ) $ (2.4 ) Interest cost (7.7 ) (9.7 ) (9.3 ) Expected return on UK Plan assets 11.5 14.7 13.0 Amortization of unrecognized net prior service credit 2.2 1.7 1.5 Amortization of unrecognized actuarial loss (3.4 ) (2.0 ) (2.3 ) Net periodic pension benefit (cost) $ — $ 2.4 $ 0.5 Other changes in assets and benefit obligations recognized in OCI 14.4 (21.0 ) 0.1 Total recognized in net periodic pension benefit (cost) and OCI $ 14.4 $ (18.6 ) $ 0.6 January 30, 2016 January 31, 2015 Assumptions used to determine benefit obligations (at the end of the year): Discount rate 3.60 % 3.00 % Salary increases 2.50 % 2.50 % Assumptions used to determine net periodic pension costs (at the start of the year): Discount rate 3.00 % 4.40 % Expected return on UK Plan assets 3.90 % 5.25 % Salary increases 2.50 % 3.00 % The discount rate is based upon published rates for high-quality fixed-income investments that produce expected cash flows that approximate the timing and amount of expected future benefit payments. The expected return on the UK Plan assets assumption is based upon the historical return and future expected returns for each asset class, as well as the target asset allocation of the portfolio of UK Plan assets. The UK Plan’s investment strategy is guided by an objective of achieving a return on the investments, which is consistent with the long-term return assumptions and funding policy, to ensure the UK Plan obligations are met. The investment policy is to carry a balance of funds to achieve these aims. These funds carry investments in UK and overseas equities, diversified growth funds, UK corporate bonds, open-ended funds and commercial property. The property investment is through a Pooled Pensions Property Fund that provides a diversified portfolio of property assets. The target allocation for the UK Plan’s assets at January 30, 2016 was bonds 52% , diversified growth funds 35% , equities 8% and property 5% . This allocation is consistent with the long-term target allocation of investments underlying the UK Plan’s funding strategy. The fair value of the assets in the UK Plan at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 are required to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1—quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 2—observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data Level 3—unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data The methods Signet uses to determine fair value on an instrument-specific basis are detailed below: Fair value measurements as of January 30, 2016 Fair value measurements as of January 31, 2015 (in millions) Total Quoted prices in Significant Significant Total Quoted prices in Significant Significant Asset category: Diversified equity securities $ 21.2 $ 11.3 $ 9.9 $ — $ 23.6 $ 12.2 $ 11.4 $ — Diversified growth funds 90.5 44.8 45.7 — 99.0 49.8 49.2 — Fixed income – government bonds 87.1 — 87.1 — 95.8 — 95.8 — Fixed income – corporate bonds 53.6 — 53.6 — 64.6 — 64.6 — Property 13.0 — — 13.0 12.3 — — 12.3 Cash 0.8 0.8 — — 0.5 0.5 — — Total $ 266.2 $ 56.9 $ 196.3 $ 13.0 $ 295.8 $ 62.5 $ 221.0 $ 12.3 Investments in diversified equity securities, diversified growth funds and fixed income securities are in pooled funds. Investments are valued based on unadjusted quoted prices for each fund in active markets, where possible and, therefore, classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. If unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets are unavailable, investments are valued by the administrators of the funds. The valuation is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of units outstanding. The unit price is based on underlying investments which are generally either traded in an active market or are valued based on observable inputs such as market interest rates and quoted prices for similar securities and, therefore, classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The investment in property is in pooled funds valued by the administrators of the fund. The valuation is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities and then divided by the number of units outstanding. The unit price is based on underlying investments which are independently valued on a monthly basis. The investment in the property fund is subject to certain restrictions on withdrawals that could delay the receipt of funds by up to 16 months. The table below sets forth changes in the fair value of the Level 3 investment assets in Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 : (in millions) Significant Balance as of February 1, 2014 $ 11.6 Actual return on assets 0.7 Balance as of January 31, 2015 $ 12.3 Actual return on assets 0.7 Balance as of January 30, 2016 $ 13.0 Signet contributed $2.5 million to the UK Plan in Fiscal 2016 and expects to contribute a minimum of $2.6 million to the UK Plan in Fiscal 2017 . The level of contributions is in accordance with an agreed upon deficit recovery plan and based on the results of the actuarial valuation as of April 5, 2015. The following benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are estimated to be paid by the UK Plan: (in millions) Expected benefit payments Fiscal 2017 $ 8.5 Fiscal 2018 8.3 Fiscal 2019 8.5 Fiscal 2020 8.9 Fiscal 2021 9.4 Thereafter $ 49.2 In June 2004, Signet introduced a defined contribution plan which replaced the UK Plan for new UK employees. The contributions to this plan in Fiscal 2016 were $2.0 million ( Fiscal 2015 : $1.8 million ; Fiscal 2014 : $1.0 million ). In the US, Signet operates a defined contribution 401(k) retirement savings plan for all eligible employees who meet minimum age and service requirements. The assets of this plan are held in a separate trust and Signet matches 50% of up to 6% of employee elective salary deferrals, subject to statutory limitations. Signet’s contributions to this plan in Fiscal 2016 were $8.3 million ( Fiscal 2015 : $7.6 million ; Fiscal 2014 : $7.1 million ). The Sterling Jewelers division has also established two unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plans, one of which permits certain management and highly compensated employees to elect annually to defer all or a portion of their compensation and earn interest on the deferred amounts (“DCP”) and the other of which is frozen as to new participants and new deferrals. Beginning in April 2011, the DCP provided for a matching contribution based on each participant’s annual compensation deferral. The plan also permits employer contributions on a discretionary basis. In connection with these plans, Signet has invested in trust-owned life insurance policies and money market funds. The cost recognized in connection with the DCP in Fiscal 2016 was $2.9 million ( Fiscal 2015 : $2.6 million ; Fiscal 2014 : $2.4 million ). The fair value of the assets in the two unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plans at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 are required to be classified and disclosed. Although these plans are not required to be funded by the Company, the Company may elect to fund the plans.

The agreement was subsequently amended in May 2014 to extend the maturity date to 2019 and expand the agreement to include a new $400 million term loan. The $400 million five -year senior unsecured term loan requires the Company to make scheduled quarterly principal payments commencing on November 1, 2014 equal to the amounts per annum of the original principal amount of the term loan as follows: 5% in the first year, 7.5% in the second year, 10% in the third year, 12.5% in the fourth year and 15% in the fifth year after the initial payment date, with the balance due on May 27, 2019. As of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 , $365.0 million and $390.0 million remained outstanding on the term loan, respectively. Excluding impact of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges discussed in Note 14, the term loan had a weighted average interest rate of 1.48% and 1.52% during Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin, plus, at the Company’s option, either (a) a base rate or (b) a LIBOR rate. The Credit Facility provides that the Company may voluntarily repay outstanding loans at any time without premium or penalty other than reimbursement of the lender’s redeployment and breakage costs in certain cases. In addition, the Credit Facility contains various customary representations and warranties, financial reporting requirements and other affirmative and negative covenants. As with the Company’s prior credit facility, the Company is required to maintain at all times a leverage ratio of no greater than 2.50 to 1.00 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.40 to 1.00, both determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the trailing twelve months. Capitalized fees relating to the amended Credit Facility total $6.7 million . Accumulated amortization related to these capitalized fees as of January 30, 2016 was $2.2 million ( January 31, 2015 : $0.9 million ). Amortization relating to these fees of $1.3 million and $0.9 million was recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements for Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. In addition, capitalized fees associated with the May 2011 credit facility agreement of $0.9 million were written-off in Fiscal 2015 upon execution of the amended credit agreement in May 2014. At January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The Company had stand-by letters of credit on the revolving credit facility of $28.8 million and $25.4 million as of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 , respectively, that reduce remaining availability under the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility had a weighted average interest rate of 1.18% and 1.14% during Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. On February 19, 2014, Signet entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Zale Corporation and concurrently received commitments for an $800 million 364 -day unsecured bridge facility to finance the transaction. The bridge facility contained customary fees and incurred interest on any borrowings drawn on the facility. In May 2014, Signet executed its Zale Acquisition financing as described in Note 3, replacing the bridge facility commitments in addition to amending its Credit Facility as outlined above, issuing senior unsecured notes and securitizing credit card receivables. No amounts were drawn on the bridge facility commitments prior to replacement by the issuances of long-term debt listed below. Fees of $4.0 million relating to this unsecured bridge facility were incurred and capitalized during Fiscal 2015. The capitalized fees of $4.0 million were fully expensed in Fiscal 2015. Senior unsecured notes due 2024 On May 19, 2014, Signet UK Finance plc (“Signet UK Finance”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.700% senior unsecured notes due in 2024 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued under an effective registration statement previously filed with the SEC. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2014. The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed, on a full and unconditional basis, by the Company and by certain of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries (such subsidiaries, the “Guarantors”). See Note 25 for additional information. The Notes were issued pursuant to a base indenture among the Company, Signet UK Finance, the Guarantors and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as trustee, with the indenture containing customary covenants and events of default provisions. The Company received proceeds from the offering of approximately $393.9 million , which were net of underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. Capitalized fees relating to the senior unsecured notes total $7.0 million . Accumulated amortization related to these capitalized fees as of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 was $1.2 million and $0.5 million , respectively. Amortization relating to these fees of $0.7 million and $0.5 million was recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements for Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. Asset-backed securitization facility On May 15, 2014, the Company sold an undivided interest in certain credit card receivables to Sterling Jewelers Receivables Master Note Trust (the “Issuer”), a wholly-owned Delaware statutory trust and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company and issued two -year revolving asset-backed variable funding notes to unrelated third party conduits pursuant to a master indenture dated as of November 2, 2001, as supplemented by the Series 2014-A indenture supplement dated as of May 15, 2014 among the Issuer, Sterling Jewelers Inc. (“SJI”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, the indenture trustee. Under terms of the notes, the Issuer has obtained $600 million of financing from the unrelated third party commercial paper conduits sponsored by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which indebtedness is secured by credit card receivables originated from time to time by SJI. The credit card receivables will ultimately be transferred to the Issuer and are serviced by SJI. Signet guarantees the performance by SJI of its obligations under the agreements associated with this financing arrangement. Borrowings under the asset-backed variable funding notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Payments received from customers for balances outstanding on securitized credit card receivables are utilized to repay amounts outstanding under the facility each period, while proceeds from the facility are received for incremental credit card receivables originated when the receivables are pledged to the Issuer. Such payments received from customers and proceeds from the facility are reflected on a gross basis in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. As of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 , $600.0 million remained outstanding under the securitization facility with a weighted average interest rate of 1.61% and 1.50% during Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. Capitalized fees relating to the asset-backed securitization facility total $2.8 million . Accumulated amortization related to these capitalized fees as of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 was $2.4 million and $0.9 million , respectively. Amortization relating to these fees of $1.5 million and $0.9 million was recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements for Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 , respectively. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2016, Signet amended the note purchase agreement associated with the asset-backed securitization facility to extend the term of the facility by one year to May 2017 with all terms substantially the same as the original agreement. Other As of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 , the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. As of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 , there were $24.4 million and $71.6 million in overdrafts, which represent issued and outstanding checks where no bank balances exist with the right of offset.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	Share-based compensation Signet operates several share-based compensation plans which can be categorized as the “Omnibus Plan,” “Share Saving Plans” and the “Executive Plans.” Impact on results Share-based compensation expense and the associated tax benefits are as follows: (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Share-based compensation expense $ 16.4 $ 12.1 $ 14.4 Income tax benefit $ (5.9 ) $ (4.3 ) $ (5.2 ) Unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards granted under share-based compensation plans is as follows: Unrecognized Compensation Cost (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Omnibus Plan $ 19.0 $ 10.5 $ 14.4 Share Saving Plans 4.4 3.3 2.9 IIP grant — 4.0 — Total $ 23.4 $ 17.8 $ 17.3 Weighted average period of amortization 1.9 years 1.7 years 1.8 years As of April 2012, the Company opted to satisfy share option exercises and the vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under its plans with the issuance of treasury shares. Prior to April 2012, all share option exercises and award vestings were satisfied through the issuance of new shares. Omnibus Plan In June 2009, Signet adopted the Signet Jewelers Limited Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”). Awards that may be granted under the Omnibus Plan include restricted stock, RSUs, stock options and stock appreciation rights. The Fiscal 2016 , Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2014 awards granted under the Omnibus Plan have two elements, time-based restricted stock and performance-based RSUs. The time-based restricted stock has a three year cliff vesting period, subject to continued employment, and has the same voting rights and dividend rights as common shares (which are payable once the shares have vested). Beginning in Fiscal 2014, performance-based RSUs granted include two performance measures, operating income and return on capital employed (“ROCE”), with ROCE measure only applicable to senior executives. For both performance measures, cumulative results achieved during the relevant three year performance period are compared to target metrics established in the underlying grant agreements. The relevant performance is measured over a three year vesting period from the start of the fiscal year in which the award is granted. The Omnibus Plan permits the grant of awards to employees for up to 7,000,000 common shares. In Fiscal 2015, the Company issued a grant of performance-based RSUs under the Omnibus Plan. This grant occurred as part of the Signet Integration Incentive Plan (“IIP”), a transaction-related special incentive program that was designed to facilitate the integration of the Zale Acquisition and to reward the anticipated efforts of key management personnel on both sides of the transaction. The RSUs vest, subject to continued employment, based upon gross synergies realized during the one year performance period compared to targeted gross synergy metrics established in the underlying grant agreement. The significant assumptions utilized to estimate the weighted-average fair value of awards granted under the Omnibus Plan are as follows: Omnibus Plan Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Share price $ 136.37 $ 104.57 $ 67.39 Risk free interest rate 0.8 % 0.8 % 0.3 % Expected term 2.9 years 2.7 years 2.8 years Expected volatility 25.4 % 32.1 % 41.7 % Dividend yield 0.7 % 0.9 % 1.1 % Fair value $ 134.46 $ 103.12 $ 66.10 The risk-free interest rate is based on the US Treasury (for US-based award recipients) or UK Gilt (for UK-based award recipients) yield curve in effect at the grant date with remaining terms equal to the expected term of the awards. The expected term utilized is based on the contractual vesting period of the awards. The expected volatility is determined by calculating the historical volatility of Signet’s share price over the expected term of the award. The Fiscal 2016 activity for awards granted under the Omnibus Plan is as follows: Omnibus Plans (in millions, except per share amounts) No. of Weighted Weighted Intrinsic (1) Outstanding at January 31, 2015 0.7 $ 70.69 1.0 year $ 78.6 Fiscal 2016 activity: Granted 0.2 134.46 Vested (0.2 ) 49.29 Lapsed (0.1 ) 66.54 Outstanding at January 30, 2016 0.6 $ 101.88 1.1 years $ 69.8 (1) Intrinsic value for outstanding restricted stock and RSUs is based on the fair market value of Signet’s common stock on the last business day of the fiscal year. The following table summarizes additional information about awards granted under the Omnibus Plan: (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Total intrinsic value of awards vested $ 22.2 $ 43.9 $ 25.3 Share Saving Plans Signet has three share option savings plans (collectively, the “Share Saving Plans”) available to employees as follows: • Employee Share Savings Plan, for US employees • Sharesave Plan, for UK employees • Irish Sharesave Plan for Republic of Ireland employees The Share Saving Plans are compensatory and compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period. In any 10 year period not more than 10% of the issued common shares of the Company from time to time may, in aggregate, be issued or be issuable pursuant to options granted under the Share Saving Plans or any other employees share plans adopted by Signet. The Employee Share Savings Plan is a savings plan intended to qualify under US Section 423 of the US Internal Revenue Code and allows employees to purchase common shares at a discount of approximately 15% to the closing price of the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant. Options granted under the Employee Share Savings Plan vest after 24 months and are generally only exercisable between 24 and 27 months of the grant date. The Sharesave Plan and Irish Sharesave Plan allow eligible employees to purchase common shares at a discount of approximately 20% below a determined market price based on the London Stock Exchange. The market price is determined as the average middle market price for the three trading days prior to the invitation date, or the market price on the day immediately preceding the participation date or other market price agreed in writing, whichever is the higher value. Options granted under the Sharesave Plan and the Irish Sharesave Plan vest after 36 months and are generally only exercisable between 36 and 42 months from commencement of the related savings contract. The significant assumptions utilized to estimate the weighted-average fair value of awards granted under the Share Saving Plans are as follows: Share Saving Plans Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Share price $ 139.18 $ 114.93 $ 72.65 Exercise price $ 114.67 $ 96.67 $ 59.75 Risk free interest rate 0.7 % 0.9 % 0.7 % Expected term 2.6 years 2.8 years 2.7 years Expected volatility 27.1 % 27.6 % 40.2 % Dividend yield 0.8 % 0.8 % 1.1 % Fair value $ 34.76 $ 28.76 $ 22.89 The risk-free interest rate is based on the US Treasury (for US-based award recipients) or UK Gilt (for UK-based award recipients) yield curve in effect at the grant date with remaining terms equal to the expected term of the awards. The expected term utilized is based on the contractual vesting period of the awards, inclusive of any exercise period available to award recipients after vesting. The expected volatility is determined by calculating the historical volatility of Signet’s share price over the expected term of the awards. The Fiscal 2016 activity for awards granted under the Share Saving Plans is as follows: Share Saving Plans (in millions, except per share amounts) No. of Weighted Weighted Intrinsic (1) Outstanding at January 31, 2015 0.2 $ 69.05 1.9 years $ 11.0 Fiscal 2016 activity: Granted 0.1 114.67 Exercised (0.1 ) 51.17 Lapsed — 81.83 Outstanding at January 30, 2016 0.2 $ 94.07 1.9 years $ 4.9 Exercisable at January 31, 2015 — $ — $ — Exercisable at January 30, 2016 — $ — $ — (1) Intrinsic value for outstanding awards is based on the fair market value of Signet’s common stock on the last business day of the fiscal year.

No awards have been granted under the Executive Plans since the adoption of the Omnibus Plan in Fiscal 2010. During Fiscal 2014, the plan periods for the Executive Plans expired. As a result, no additional awards may be granted under the Executive Plans. The Fiscal 2016 activity for awards granted under the Executive Plans is as follows: Executive Plans (in millions, except per share amounts) No. of Weighted Weighted Intrinsic (1) Outstanding at January 31, 2015 0.1 $ 35.56 2.7 years $ 4.7 Fiscal 2016 activity: Granted — — Exercised (0.1 ) $ 30.60 Lapsed — 49.80 Outstanding at January 30, 2016 — $ 43.50 1.5 years $ 1.5 Exercisable at January 31, 2015 0.1 $ 35.56 $ 4.7 Exercisable at January 30, 2016 — $ 43.50 $ 1.5 (1) Intrinsic value for outstanding awards is based on the fair market value of Signet’s common stock on the last business day of the fiscal year.

Rental expense for operating leases is as follows: (in millions) Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2014 Minimum rentals $ 525.7 $ 462.9 $ 323.7 Contingent rent 15.3 14.0 11.1 Sublease income (0.7 ) (0.8 ) (0.9 ) Total $ 540.3 $ 476.1 $ 333.9 The future minimum operating lease payments for operating leases having initial or non-cancelable terms in excess of one year are as follows: (in millions) Fiscal 2017 $ 463.6 Fiscal 2018 391.7 Fiscal 2019 323.7 Fiscal 2020 288.2 Fiscal 2021 260.9 Thereafter 1,017.5 Total $ 2,745.6 Signet has entered into sale and leaseback transactions of certain properties. Under these transactions it continues to occupy the space in the normal course of business. Gains on the transactions are deferred and recognized as a reduction of rent expense over the life of the operating lease. Contingent property liabilities Approximately 31 UK property leases had been assigned by Signet at January 30, 2016 (and remained unexpired and occupied by assignees at that date) and approximately 17 additional properties were sub-leased at that date. Should the assignees or sub-tenants fail to fulfill any obligations in respect of those leases or any other leases which have at any other time been assigned or sub-leased, Signet or one of its UK subsidiaries may be liable for those defaults. The number of such claims arising to date has been small, and the liability, which is charged to the income statement as it arises, has not been material. Capital commitments At January 30, 2016 Signet has committed to spend $28.9 million ( January 31, 2015 : $42.9 million ) related to capital commitments. These commitments principally relate to the expansion and renovation of stores. Legal proceedings As previously reported, in March 2008, a group of private plaintiffs (the “Claimants”) filed a class action lawsuit for an unspecified amount against SJI, a subsidiary of Signet, in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that US store-level employment practices are discriminatory as to compensation and promotional activities with respect to gender. In June 2008, the District Court referred the matter to private arbitration where the Claimants sought to proceed on a class-wide basis. The Claimants filed a motion for class certification and SJI opposed the motion. A hearing on the class certification motion was held in late February 2014. On February 2, 2015, the arbitrator issued a Class Determination Award in which she certified for a class-wide hearing Claimants’ disparate impact declaratory and injunctive relief class claim under Title VII, with a class period of July 22, 2004 through date of trial for the Claimants’ compensation claims and December 7, 2004 through date of trial for Claimants’ promotion claims. The arbitrator otherwise denied Claimants’ motion to certify a disparate treatment class alleged under Title VII, denied a disparate impact monetary damages class alleged under Title VII, and denied an opt-out monetary damages class under the Equal Pay Act. On February 9, 2015, Claimants filed an Emergency Motion To Restrict Communications With The Certified Class And For Corrective Notice. SJI filed its opposition to Claimants’ emergency motion on February 17, 2015, and a hearing was held on February 18, 2015. Claimants' motion was granted in part and denied in part in an order issued on March 16, 2015. Claimants filed a Motion for Reconsideration Regarding Title VII Claims for Disparate Treatment in Compensation on February 11, 2015. SJI filed its opposition to Claimants’ Motion for Reconsideration on March 4, 2015. Claimants’ reply was filed on March 16, 2015. Claimants’ Motion was denied in an order issued April 27, 2015. Claimants filed Claimants’ Motion for Conditional Certification of Claimants’ Equal Pay Act Claims and Authorization of Notice on March 6, 2015. SJI’s opposition was filed on May 1, 2015. Claimants filed their reply on June 5, 2015. Claimants’ Motion was granted and the Arbitrator issued an Equal Pay Act Collective Action Conditional Certification Award and companion Order Regarding Claimants’ Motion For Tolling Of EPA Limitations Period on February 29, 2016. SJI’s deadline to move the US District Court for the Southern District of New York to vacate the Conditional Certification Award and Order Regarding Claimants’ Motion For Tolling Of EPA Limitations Period is March 30, 2016. SJI filed with the US District Court for the Southern District of New York a Motion to Vacate the Arbitrator’s Class Certification Award on March 3, 2015. Claimants’ opposition was filed on March 23, 2015 and SJI’s reply was filed on April 3, 2015. SJI’s motion was heard on May 4, 2015. On November 16, 2015, the US District Court for the Southern District of New York granted SJI’s Motion to Vacate the Arbitrator’s Class Certification Award in part and denied it in part. On November 25, 2015, SJI filed a Motion to Stay the AAA Proceedings while SJI appeals the decision of the US District Court for the Southern District of New York to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The Motion was denied on February 22, 2016. On December 9, 2015, SJI docketed its Notice of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. SJI’s Brief and Appendix of Appellant was filed with the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on March 17, 2016. In the AAA proceeding, on April 6, 2015, Claimants filed Claimants’ Motion for Clarification or in the Alternative Motion for Stay of the Effect of the Class Certification Award as to the Individual Intentional Discrimination Claims. SJI filed its opposition on May 12, 2015. Claimants’ reply was filed on May 22, 2015. Claimants’ motion was granted on June 15, 2015. On February 24, 2016, the Arbitrator also issued an Order granting Claimants’ motion for a stay of the Class Determination Award or for equitable tolling of the statute of limitations with respect to the putative class of Claimants alleging disparate treatment. Also, as previously reported, on September 23, 2008, the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) filed a lawsuit against SJI in the US District Court for the Western District of New York. The EEOC’s lawsuit alleges that SJI engaged in intentional and disparate impact gender discrimination with respect to pay and promotions of female retail store employees from January 1, 2003 to the present. The EEOC asserts claims for unspecified monetary relief and non-monetary relief against the Company on behalf of a class of female employees subjected to these alleged practices. Non-expert fact discovery closed in mid-May 2013. In September 2013, SJI made a motion for partial summary judgment on procedural grounds, which was referred to a Magistrate Judge. The Magistrate Judge heard oral arguments on the summary judgment motion in December 2013. On January 2, 2014, the Magistrate Judge issued his Report, Recommendation and Order, recommending that the Court grant SJI’s motion for partial summary judgment and dismiss the EEOC’s claims in their entirety. The EEOC filed its objections to the Magistrate Judge’s ruling and SJI filed its response thereto. The District Court Judge heard oral arguments on the EEOC’s objections to the Magistrate Judge’s ruling on March 7, 2014 and on March 11, 2014 entered an order dismissing the action with prejudice. On May 12, 2014, the EEOC filed its Notice of Appeal of the District Court Judge’s dismissal of the action to United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The parties fully briefed the appeal and oral argument occurred on May 5, 2015. On September 9, 2015, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued a decision vacating the District Court’s order and remanding the case back to the District Court for further proceedings. SJI filed a Petition for Panel Rehearing and En Banc Review with the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which was denied on December 1, 2015. On December 4, 2015, SJI filed a motion to stay the Mandate of the Second Circuit pending SJI’s filing of a Petition for Writ of Certiorari with the Supreme Court of the United States. On December 5, 2015, the District Court referred the case to Magistrate Judge Michael J. Roehmer for pretrial and to hear and report on dispositive motion proceedings. On February 5, 2016, SJI filed with the Supreme Court of the United States an application for extension to file its Petition for Certiorari. On February 9, 2016, the application was granted. SJI’s Petition for Certiorari is due for filing on April 29, 2016. SJI denies the allegations of the Claimants and EEOC and has been defending these cases vigorously. At this point, no outcome or possible loss or range of losses, if any, arising from the litigation is able to be estimated. Prior to the Acquisition, Zale Corporation was a defendant in three purported class action lawsuits, Tessa Hodge v. Zale Delaware, Inc., d/b/a Piercing Pagoda which was filed on April 23, 2013 in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Bernardino; Naomi Tapia v. Zale Corporation which was filed on July 3, 2013 in the US District Court, Southern District of California; and Melissa Roberts v. Zale Delaware, Inc. which was filed on October 7, 2013 in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles. All three cases include allegations that Zale Corporation violated various wage and hour labor laws. Relief is sought on behalf of current and former Piercing Pagoda and Zale Corporation’s employees. The lawsuits seek to recover damages, penalties and attorneys’ fees as a result of the alleged violations. Without admitting or conceding any liability, the Company reached an agreement to settle the Hodge and Roberts matters for an immaterial amount. Final approval of the settlement was granted on March 9, 2015 and the settlement was implemented. On April 1, 2015, Plaintiff filed Plaintiff’s Notice of Motion and Motion for Class Certification in the Naomi Tapia v. Zale Corporation litigation. On May 22, 2015, the Company filed Defendants’ Opposition to Plaintiff’s Motion for Class Certification under Fed.R.Civ.Proc. 23 and Collective Action Certification under 29 U.SC. §216(b). Plaintiff filed her Reply Memorandum in Support of Plaintiff’s Motion for Class Certification on June 3, 2015. The parties await a ruling on the Motion for Class Certification. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position in this litigation. At this point, no outcome or possible loss or range of losses, if any, arising from the litigation is able to be estimated. Litigation Challenging the Company’s Acquisition of Zale Corporation Five putative stockholder class action lawsuits challenging the Company’s acquisition of Zale Corporation were filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware: Breyer v. Zale Corp. et al., C.A. No. 9388-VCP, filed February 24, 2014; Stein v. Zale Corp. et al., C.A. No. 9408-VCP, filed March 3, 2014; Singh v. Zale Corp. et al., C.A. No. 9409-VCP, filed March 3, 2014; Smart v. Zale Corp. et al., C.A. No. 9420-VCP, filed March 6, 2014; and Pill v. Zale Corp. et al., C.A. No. 9440-VCP, filed March 12, 2014 (collectively, the “Actions”). Each of these Actions was brought by a purported former holder of Zale Corporation common stock, both individually and on behalf of a putative class of former Zale Corporation stockholders. The Court of Chancery consolidated the Actions on March 25, 2014 (the “Consolidated Action”), and the plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint on April 23, 2014, which named as defendants Zale Corporation, the members of the board of directors of Zale Corporation, the Company, and a merger-related subsidiary of the Company, and alleged that the Zale Corporation directors breached their fiduciary duties to Zale Corporation stockholders in connection with their consideration and approval of the merger agreement by failing to maximize stockholder value and agreeing to an inadequate merger price and to deal terms that deter higher bids. That complaint also alleged that the Zale Corporation directors issued a materially misleading and incomplete proxy statement regarding the merger and that Zale Corporation and the Company aided and abetted the Zale Corporation directors’ breaches of fiduciary duty. On May 23, 2014, the Court of Chancery denied plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction to prevent the consummation of the merger. On September 30, 2014, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint asserting substantially similar claims and allegations as the prior complaint. The amended complaint added Zale Corporation’s former financial advisor, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, as a defendant for allegedly aiding and abetting the Zale Corporation directors’ breaches of fiduciary duty. The amended complaint no longer named as defendants Zale Corporation or the Company’s merger-related subsidiary. The amended complaint sought, among other things, rescission of the merger or damages, as well as attorneys’ and experts’ fees. The defendant's motion to dismiss was heard by the Court of Chancery on May 20, 2015. On October 1, 2015, the Court dismissed the claims against the Zale Corporation directors and the Company. On October 29, 2015, the Court dismissed the claims against Bank of America Merrill Lynch. On November 30, 2015, plaintiffs filed an appeal of the October 1, 2015 and October 29, 2015 decisions of the Court of Chancery, which is pending with the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware. At this point, no outcome or possible loss or range of losses, if any, arising from the litigation is able to be estimated. Appraisal Litigation Following the consummation of the acquisition of Zale Corporation by the Company, former Zale Corporation stockholders sought appraisal pursuant to 8 Del. C. § 262 in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, in consolidated proceedings captioned Merion Capital L.P. et al. v. Zale Corp., C.A. No. 9731-VCP,TIG Arbitrage Opportunity Fund I, L.P. v. Zale Corp., C.A. No. 10070-VCP,and The Gabelli ABC Fund et al. v. Zale Corp., C.A. No. 10162-VCP(the “Appraisal Action”). The total number of shares of Zale Corporation’s common stock for which appraisal had been demanded was approximately 8.8 million . On August 12, 2015, the parties in the Appraisal Action entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”). The terms of the Settlement Agreement provided for the payment to petitioners in the Appraisal Action of $21.00 per share of Zale Corporation common stock (the consideration offered in the Company’s acquisition of Zale Corporation) plus a total sum of $34.2 million to be allocated among petitioners, which proceeds are inclusive of and in satisfaction of any statutory interest that may have accrued on petitioners’ shares pursuant to 8 Del. C. § 262. On August 12, 2015, the Court of Chancery dismissed the Appraisal Action pursuant to the Settlement Agreement as to all former Zale Corporation stockholders who have submitted and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal. The Company recorded an accrual for the Settlement Agreement of $34.2 million during the second quarter of Fiscal 2016. This amount was paid to petitioners during the third quarter of Fiscal 2016. In the ordinary course of business, Signet may be subject, from time to time, to various other proceedings, lawsuits, disputes or claims incidental to its business, which the Company believes are not significant to Signet’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of preparation	Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements of Signet are prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) and include the results for the 52 week period ended January 30, 2016 (“ Fiscal 2016 ”), as Signet’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. The comparative periods are for the 52 week period ended January 31, 2015 (“ Fiscal 2015 ”) and the 52 week period ended February 1, 2014 (“ Fiscal 2014 ”). Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Use of estimates	Use of estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements, in conformity with US GAAP and SEC regulations, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are primarily made in relation to the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, deferred revenue, derivatives, employee benefits, income taxes, contingencies, asset impairments, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets as well as accounting for business combinations. The reported results of operations are not indicative of results expected in future periods.
Foreign currency translation	Foreign currency translation The financial position and operating results of certain foreign operations, including the UK Jewelry division and the Canadian operations of the Zale Jewelry segment, are consolidated using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at the monthly average rates of exchange during the period. Resulting translation gains or losses are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included within the consolidated income statements, whereas translation adjustments and gains or losses related to intercompany loans of a long-term investment nature are recognized as a component of AOCI.
Revenue recognition	Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered, the sale price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenue streams and their respective accounting treatments are discussed below. Merchandise sale and repairs Store sales are recognized when the customer receives and pays for the merchandise at the store with cash, in-house customer finance, private label credit card programs or a third party credit card. For online sales shipped to customers, sales are recognized at the estimated time the customer has received the merchandise. Amounts related to shipping and handling that are billed to customers are reflected in sales and the related costs are reflected in cost of sales. Revenues on the sale of merchandise are reported net of anticipated returns and sales tax collected. Returns are estimated based on previous return rates experienced. Any deposits received from a customer for merchandise are deferred and recognized as revenue when the customer receives the merchandise. Revenues derived from providing replacement merchandise on behalf of insurance organizations are recognized upon receipt of the merchandise by the customer. Revenues on repair of merchandise are recognized when the service is complete and the customer collects the merchandise at the store. Extended service plans and lifetime warranty agreements (“ESP”) The Company recognizes revenue related to lifetime warranty sales in proportion to when the expected costs will be incurred. The deferral period for lifetime warranty sales in each division is determined from patterns of claims costs, including estimates of future claims costs expected to be incurred. Management reviews the trends in claims to assess whether changes are required to the revenue and cost recognition rates utilized. A significant change in estimates related to the time period or pattern in which warranty-related costs are expected to be incurred could materially impact revenues. All direct costs associated with the sale of these plans are deferred and amortized in proportion to the revenue recognized and disclosed as either other current assets or other assets. The Sterling Jewelers division sells extended service plans, subject to certain conditions, to perform repair work over the life of the product. Revenue from the sale of these lifetime extended service plans is recognized consistent with the estimated pattern of claim costs expected to be incurred by the Company in connection with performing under the extended service plan obligations. Based on an evaluation of historical claims data, management currently estimates that substantially all claims will be incurred within 17 years of the sale of the warranty contract. In the second quarter of Fiscal 2016, an operational change related to the Sterling Jewelers division’s extended service plans associated with ring sizing was made to further align Zale and Sterling ESP policies. As a result, revenue from the sale of these lifetime extended service plans in the Sterling Jewelers division is deferred and recognized over 17 years for all plans, with approximately 57% of revenue recognized within the first two years for plans sold on or after May 2, 2015 and 42% of revenue recognized within the first two years for plans sold prior to May 2, 2015 ( January 31, 2015 : 45% ; February 1, 2014 : 45% ). The Zale division also sells extended service plans. Zale Jewelry customers are offered lifetime warranties on certain products that cover sizing and breakage with an option to purchase theft protection for a two-year period. Revenue from the sale of lifetime extended service plans is deferred and recognized over 10 years, with approximately 69% of revenue recognized within the first two years (January 31, 2015: 69% ). Revenues related to the optional theft protection are deferred and recognized in proportion to when the expected claims costs will be incurred over the two-year contract period. Zale Jewelry customers are also offered a two-year watch warranty and a one-year warranty that covers breakage. Piercing Pagoda customers are also offered a one-year warranty that covers breakage. Revenue from the two-year watch warranty and one-year breakage warranty is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective contract terms. The Sterling Jewelers division also sells a Jewelry Replacement Plan (“JRP”). The JRP is designed to protect customers from damage or defects of purchased merchandise for a period of three years. If the purchased merchandise is defective or becomes damaged under normal use in that time period, the item will be replaced. JRP revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of expected claims costs. Signet also sells warranty agreements in the capacity of an agent on behalf of a third-party. The commission that Signet receives from the third-party is recognized at the time of sale less an estimate of cancellations based on historical experience. Sale vouchers Certain promotional offers award sale vouchers to customers who make purchases above a certain value, which grant a fixed discount on a future purchase within a stated time frame. The Company accounts for such vouchers by allocating the fair value of the voucher between the initial purchase and the future purchase using the relative-selling-price method. Sale vouchers are not sold on a stand-alone basis. The fair value of the voucher is determined based on the average sales transactions in which the vouchers were issued, when the vouchers are expected to be redeemed and the estimated voucher redemption rate. The fair value allocated to the future purchase is recorded as deferred revenue. Consignment inventory sales Sales of consignment inventory are accounted for on a gross sales basis as the Company is the primary obligor providing independent advice, guidance and after-sales service to customers. The products sold from consignment inventory are indistinguishable from other products that are sold to customers and are sold on the same terms. Supplier products are selected at the discretion of the Company. The Company is responsible for determining the selling price, physical security of the products and collections of accounts receivable.
Cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses	Cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses Cost of sales includes merchandise costs net of discounts and allowances, freight, processing and distribution costs of moving merchandise from suppliers to distribution centers and stores, inventory shrinkage, store operating and occupancy costs, net bad debts and charges for late payments under the in-house customer finance programs. Store operating and occupancy costs include utilities, rent, real estate taxes, common area maintenance charges and depreciation. Selling, general and administrative expenses include store staff and store administrative costs; centralized administrative expenses, including information technology, credit and eCommerce; advertising and promotional costs and other operating expenses not specifically categorized elsewhere in the consolidated income statements.
Store opening costs	Store opening costs The opening costs of new locations are expensed as incurred.
Advertising and promotional costs	Advertising and promotional costs Advertising and promotional costs are expensed within selling, general and administrative expenses. Production costs are expensed at the first communication of the advertisements, while communication expenses are recognized each time the advertisement is communicated. For catalogs and circulars, costs are all expensed at the first date they can be viewed by the customer. Point of sale promotional material is expensed when first displayed in the stores.
In-house customer finance programs	In-house customer finance programs Sterling Jewelers division operates customer in-house finance programs that allow customers to finance merchandise purchases from its stores. Finance charges are recognized in accordance with the contractual agreements. Gross interest earned is recorded as other operating income in the consolidated income statements. See Note 9 for additional discussion of the Company’s other operating income. In addition to interest-bearing accounts, a portion of credit sales are made using interest-free financing for one year or less, subject to certain conditions. Accrual of interest is suspended when accounts become more than 90 days aged on a recency basis. Upon suspension of the accrual of interest, interest income is subsequently recognized to the extent cash payments are received. Accrual of interest is resumed when receivables are removed from the non-accrual status.
Income taxes	Income taxes Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized by applying statutory tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences between the financial reporting and tax filing bases of existing assets and liabilities are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company does not recognize tax benefits related to positions taken on certain tax matters unless the position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. At any point in time, various tax years are subject to or are in the process of being audited by various taxing authorities. The Company records a reserve for uncertain tax positions, including interest. To the extent that management’s estimates of settlements change, or the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determinations are made.
Cash and cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash on hand, money market deposits and amounts placed with external fund managers with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. In addition, receivables from third-party credit card issuers typically converted to cash within 5 days of the original sales transaction are considered cash equivalents.
Accounts receivable	Accounts receivable Accounts receivable under the customer finance programs are presented net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts. This allowance represents management’s estimate of the expected losses in the accounts receivable portfolio as of the balance sheet date, and is calculated using a model that analyzes factors such as delinquency rates and recovery rates. An allowance for amounts 90 days aged and under on a recency basis is established based on historical loss experience and payment performance information. A 100% allowance is made for any amount aged more than 90 days on a recency basis and any amount associated with an account the owner of which has filed for bankruptcy. Signet’s recency method of aging has been in place and unchanged since the inception of the in-house consumer financing program. The delinquency level is measured by the number of days since the last qualifying payment was received, with the qualifying payment increasing with delinquency level. The average minimum scheduled payment on a customer account is 9% . The minimum payment does not decline as the balance declines. These two facts combined (higher scheduled payment requirement and no decline in payment requirement as balance decreases) allow Signet to collect on the receivable significantly faster than other retail/bank card accounts, reducing risk and more quickly freeing up customer open to buy for additional purchases.
Inventories	Inventories Inventories are primarily held for resale and are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using weighted-average cost for all inventories except for inventories held in the Company’s diamond sourcing operations where cost is determined using specific identification. Cost includes charges directly related to bringing inventory to its present location and condition. Such charges would include warehousing, security, distribution and certain buying costs. Market value is defined as estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. Inventory write-downs are recorded for obsolete, slow moving or defective items and shrinkage. Inventory write-downs are equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated market value based upon assumptions of targeted inventory turn rates, future demand, management strategy and market conditions. Shrinkage is estimated and recorded based on historical physical inventory results, expectations of future inventory losses and current inventory levels. Physical inventories are taken at least once annually for all store locations and distribution centers.
Vendor contributions	Vendor contributions Contributions are received from vendors through various programs and arrangements including cooperative advertising. Where vendor contributions related to identifiable promotional events are received, contributions are matched against the costs of promotions. Vendor contributions, which are received as general contributions and not related to specific promotional events, are recognized as a reduction of inventory costs.
Property, plant and equipment	Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recognized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows: Buildings 30 – 40 years when land is owned or the remaining term of lease, not to exceed 40 years Leasehold improvements Remaining term of lease, not to exceed 10 years Furniture and fixtures Ranging from 3 – 10 years Equipment, including software Ranging from 3 – 5 years Equipment, which includes computer software purchased or developed for internal use, is stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Signet’s policy provides for the capitalization of external direct costs of materials and services associated with developing or obtaining internal use computer software. In addition, Signet also capitalizes certain payroll and payroll-related costs for employees directly associated with internal use computer projects. Amortization is charged on a straight-line basis over periods from three to five years. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Potentially impaired assets or asset groups are identified by reviewing the cash flows of individual stores. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the undiscounted cash flow is less than the asset’s carrying amount, the impairment charge recognized is determined by estimating the fair value of the assets and recording a loss for the amount that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Property and equipment at stores planned for closure are depreciated over a revised estimate of their useful lives.
Goodwill and intangibles	Goodwill and intangibles In a business combination, the Company estimates and records the fair value of identifiable intangible assets and liabilities acquired. The fair value of these intangible assets and liabilities is estimated based on management’s assessment, including determination of appropriate valuation technique and consideration of any third party appraisals, when necessary. Significant estimates in valuing intangible assets and liabilities acquired include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows associated with the acquired asset or liability, expected life and discount rates. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Goodwill is recorded by the Company’s reporting units based on the acquisitions made by each. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually and more frequently if indicators of impairment arise. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value (including goodwill). If the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then no further testing is required. However, if the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the two-step goodwill impairment test is performed to identify a potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of impairment to be recognized, if any. The annual testing date for goodwill allocated to the Sterling Jewelers reporting unit is the last day of the fourth quarter. The annual testing date for goodwill allocated to the reporting units associated with the Zale division acquisition and the Other reporting unit is May 31. There have been no goodwill impairment charges recorded during the fiscal periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. If future economic conditions are different than those projected by management, future impairment charges may be required. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized and reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset are less than the carrying amount, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment each year in the second quarter and may be reviewed more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company estimates the fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset, compares that value with its carrying amount and records an impairment charge, if any. If future economic conditions are different than those projected by management, future impairment charges may be required.
Derivatives and hedge accounting	Derivatives and hedge accounting The Company enters into various types of derivative instruments to mitigate certain risk exposures related to changes in commodity costs and foreign exchange rates. Derivative instruments are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, as either assets or liabilities, with an offset to net income or other comprehensive income (“OCI”), depending on whether the derivative qualifies as an effective hedge. If a derivative instrument meets certain criteria, it may be designated as a cash flow hedge on the date it is entered into. For cash flow hedge transactions, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized directly in equity as a component of AOCI and is recognized in the consolidated income statements in the same period(s) and on the same financial statement line in which the hedged item affects net income. Amounts excluded from the effectiveness calculation and any ineffective portions of the change in fair value of the derivatives are recognized immediately in other operating income, net in the consolidated income statements. In addition, gains and losses on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in other operating income, net. In the normal course of business, the Company may terminate cash flow hedges prior to the occurrence of the underlying forecasted transaction. For cash flow hedges terminated prior to the occurrence of the underlying forecasted transaction, management monitors the probability of the associated forecasted cash flow transactions to assess whether any gain or loss recorded in AOCI should be immediately recognized in net income. Cash flows from derivative contracts are included in net cash provided by operating activities.
Employee Benefits	Employee Benefits Signet operates a defined benefit pension plan in the UK (the “UK Plan”) which ceased to admit new employees effective April 2004. The UK Plan provides benefits to participating eligible employees. Beginning in Fiscal 2014, a change to the benefit structure was implemented and members’ benefits that accumulate after that date are now based upon career average salaries, whereas previously, all benefits were based on salaries at retirement. The UK Plan’s assets are held by the UK Plan. The net periodic pension cost of the UK Plan is measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. Other material assumptions include rates of participant mortality, the expected long-term rate of compensation and pension increases, and rates of employee attrition. Gains and losses occur when actual experience differs from actuarial assumptions. If such gains or losses exceed 10% of the greater of plan assets or plan liabilities, Signet amortizes those gains or losses over the average remaining service period of the employees. The net periodic pension cost is charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements. The funded status of the UK Plan is recognized on the balance sheet, and is the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation measured at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise and not included as components of net periodic pension cost are recognized, net of tax, in OCI. Signet also operates a defined contribution plan in the UK and a defined contribution retirement savings plan in the US. Contributions made by Signet to these pension arrangements are charged primarily to selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements as incurred.
Borrowing costs	Borrowing costs Borrowings include interest-bearing bank loans, accounts receivable securitization program and bank overdrafts. Borrowing costs are capitalized and amortized into interest expense over the contractual term of the related loan.
Share-based compensation	Share-based compensation Signet measures share-based compensation cost for awards classified as equity at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognizes the cost as an expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period of employees. Certain share plans include a condition whereby vesting is contingent on growth exceeding a given target, and therefore awards granted with this condition are considered to be performance-based awards. Signet estimates fair value using a Black-Scholes model for awards granted under the Omnibus Plan and the binomial valuation model for awards granted under the Share Saving Plans. Deferred tax assets for awards that result in deductions on the income tax returns of subsidiaries are recorded by Signet based on the amount of compensation cost recognized and the subsidiaries’ statutory tax rate in the jurisdiction in which it will receive a deduction. Differences between the deferred tax assets recognized for financial reporting purposes and the actual tax deduction reported on the subsidiaries’ income tax return are recorded in additional paid-in-capital (if the tax deduction exceeds the deferred tax asset) or in the income statement (if the deferred tax asset exceeds the tax deduction and no additional paid-in-capital exists from previous awards). Share-based compensation is primarily recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements, along with the relevant salary cost.
Contingent liabilities	Contingent liabilities Provisions for contingent liabilities are recorded for probable losses when management is able to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss. When it is reasonably possible that a contingent liability may result in a loss or additional loss, the range of the loss is disclosed.
Leases	Leases Signet’s operating leases generally include retail store locations. Certain operating leases include predetermined rent increases, which are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including any construction period or other rental holiday. Other amounts paid under operating leases, such as contingent rentals, taxes and common area maintenance, are charged to the income statement as incurred. Premiums paid to acquire short-term leasehold properties and inducements to enter into a lease are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, certain leases provide for contingent rentals that are not measurable at inception. These contingent rentals are primarily based on a percentage of sales in excess of a predetermined level. These amounts are excluded from minimum rent and are included in the determination of rent expense when it is probable that the expense has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable.
Common shares	Common shares New shares are recorded in common shares at their par value when issued. The excess of the issue price over the par value is recorded in additional paid-in capital.
Dividends	Dividends Dividends are reflected as a reduction of retained earnings in the period in which they are formally declared by the Board of Directors (the “Board”).
New accounting pronouncements	New accounting pronouncements New accounting pronouncements adopted during the period Income Taxes In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. ASU No. 2015-17 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Signet adopted ASU 2015-17 during Fiscal 2016 and applied the standard retrospectively. Accordingly, Signet has adjusted the consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2015 to reflect the reclassifications required as follows: January 31, 2015 (in millions) As previously reported As currently reported Reclassifications Current assets $ 4.5 $ — $ (4.5 ) Current liabilities (145.8 ) — 145.8 Non-current assets 111.1 2.3 (108.8 ) Non-current liabilities (21.0 ) (53.5 ) (32.5 ) Deferred tax assets (liabilities) $ (51.2 ) $ (51.2 ) $ — New accounting pronouncements to be adopted in future periods Revenue recognition In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The new guidance affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, insurance contracts or lease contracts). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 provides alternative methods of retrospective adoption. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers-Deferral of the Effective Date.” The new guidance defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. As a result, ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that annual period. Signet is currently assessing the impact, if any, as well as the available methods of implementation, that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Share-based compensation In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” The new guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. ASU No. 2014-12 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The standard is effective for Signet in the first quarter of Fiscal 2017. Signet does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Debt issuance costs In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” The new guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” The new guidance provides clarity that the SEC would not object to the deferral and presentation of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. ASU Nos. 2015-03 and 2015-15 are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The standard is effective for Signet in the first quarter of Fiscal 2017. At January 30, 2016, Signet had unamortized debt issuance costs, excluding amounts related to the Company’s revolving credit facility agreement, of $9.9 million recorded as assets in the consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are expected to be reclassified as direct deductions from the related long-term debt upon adoption. The Company also expects to continue presenting debt issuance costs relating to its revolving credit facility as an asset. Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The new guidance states that inventory will be measured at the “lower of cost and net realizable value” and options that currently exist for “market value” will be eliminated. The ASU defines net realizable value as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.” No other changes were made to the current guidance on inventory measurement. ASU 2015-11 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied prospectively. Signet is currently assessing the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Financial instruments In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” The new guidance primarily impacts accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities under the fair value option, as well as, the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Under the new guidance, equity investments will generally be measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Signet does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The new guidance primarily impacts lessee accounting by requiring the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for long-term lease agreements. The lease liability will be equal to the present value of all reasonably certain lease payments. The right-of-use asset will be based on the liability, subject to adjustment for initial direct costs. Lease agreements that are 12 months or less are permitted to be excluded from the balance sheet. In general, leases will be amortized on a straight-line basis with the exception of finance lease agreements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Signet is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Liabilities In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-04, “Liabilities - Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20).” The new guidance addresses diversity in practice related to the derecognition of a prepaid stored-value product liability. Liabilities related to the sale of prepaid stored-value products within the scope of this update are financial liabilities. ASU 2016-04 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Signet does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
