NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Perry Ellis International, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Perry Ellis” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 1, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2014.

The information presented reflects all adjustments, which are in the opinion of management of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2013-05,“Foreign Currency Matters.” Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-05 indicates that a cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) is attached to the parent’s investment in a foreign entity and should be released in a manner consistent with the derecognition guidance on investments in entities. Thus, the entire amount of the CTA associated with the foreign entity would be released when there has been a sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity, loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity (i.e., the foreign entity is deconsolidated), or step acquisition for a foreign entity (i.e., when an entity has changed from applying the equity method for an investment in a foreign entity to consolidating the foreign entity). ASU No. 2013-05 does not change the requirement to release a pro rata portion of the CTA of the foreign entity into earnings for a partial sale of an equity method investment in a foreign entity. ASU No. 2013-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or the Company’s financial position.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11,“Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists.” Under the amendments of this update an entity is required to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The provisions of this update will be effective prospectively for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, and for the interim periods within fiscal years with early adoption and retrospective application permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or the Company’s financial position.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08,“Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU No. 2014-08 amends the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that

6

have (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. The amendments require expanded disclosures for discontinued operations that would provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of discontinued operations and disclosure of the pretax profit or loss of individually significant components of an entity that do not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. ASU No. 2014-08 is to be applied prospectively to all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) of components of an entity and all businesses or nonprofit activities that, on acquisition, are classified as held for sale that occur within fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or the Company’s financial position.

10. NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares of outstanding common stock. The calculation of diluted net income per share is similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator includes potentially dilutive common stock. The potentially dilutive common stock included in the Company’s computation of diluted net income per share includes the effects of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARS”), and unvested restricted shares as determined using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per share:

13. INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended May 3, 2014, the effective tax rate was 30.9% as compared to 36.0% for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The overall change in the effective tax rate is attributed to the prior year unfavorable disallowance of certain executive compensation and the prior year sale of certain intangible rights of the John Henry trademark as well as the change in ratio of income between domestic and foreign operations, of which the domestic operations are taxed at higher statutory tax rates.

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for fiscal 2011 through fiscal 2014 are open tax years. The Company’s state tax filings are subject to varying statutes of limitations. The Company’s unrecognized state tax benefits are related to open tax years from fiscal 2005 through fiscal 2015, depending on each state’s particular statute of limitation. As of May 3, 2014, the fiscal 2011 U.S. federal income tax return is under examination as well as various state, local, and foreign income tax returns by various taxing authorities.

The Company has a $0.8 million liability recorded for unrecognized tax benefits as of February 1, 2014, which includes interest and penalties of $0.3 million. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. All of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate. During the three months ended May 3, 2014, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits decreased by approximately $68,000. The change to the total amount of the unrecognized tax benefit for the three months ended May 3, 2014 included a decrease in interest and penalties of approximately $109,000.

The Company does not currently anticipate a resolution within the next twelve months for any of the remaining unrecognized tax benefits as of May 3, 2014. The statute of limitations related to the Company’s 2011 U.S. federal tax year was extended to June 30, 2015. Therefore, the Company does not anticipate any statute of limitations to lapse or a decrease to tax expense within the next twelve months.

14. STOCK OPTIONS, STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AND RESTRICTED SHARES

During the three months ended May 3, 2014, the Company granted an aggregate of 240,852 shares of restricted stock to certain key employees, which vest primarily over a three-year period, at an estimated value of $3.6 million. This value is being recorded as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the restricted stock.

11

During the three months ended May 3, 2014, the Company granted an aggregate of 5,883 SARs, to be settled in shares of common stock, to a director. The SARs have an exercise price of $15.49, generally vest over a three-year period and have a seven-year term. The total fair value of the SARs, based on theBlack-Scholes Option Pricing Model, amounted to approximately $50,000, which is being recorded as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each SAR.

In April 2014, a total of 42,132 shares of restricted stock vested, of which 17,929 shares were withheld to cover the employees’ statutory income tax requirements. The estimated value of the withheld shares was $0.3 million.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has four reportable segments: Men’s Sportswear and Swim, Women’s Sportswear, Direct-to-Consumer and Licensing. The Men’s Sportswear and Swim and Women’s Sportswear segments derive revenues from the design, import and distribution of apparel to department stores and other retail outlets, principally throughout the United States. The Direct-to-Consumer segment derives its revenues from the sale of the Company’s branded and licensed products through its retail stores and e-commerce platform. The Licensing segment derives its revenues from royalties associated with the use of the Company’s brand names, principally Perry Ellis, Jantzen, John Henry, Original Penguin, Gotcha, Farah, Savane, Pro Player, Laundry, Manhattan and Munsingwear.

The Company allocates certain corporate selling, general and administrative expenses based primarily on the revenues generated by each segment.

17. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued interest payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets approximate fair value due to theshort-term nature of these instruments.

Real estate mortgages. (classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy) - The carrying amounts of the real estate mortgages were approximately $24.0 million at May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014, respectively. The carrying values of the real estate mortgages at May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014 approximate fair value since they were recently entered into and thus the interest rates approximate market.

Senior credit facility. The carrying amount of the senior credit facility approximates fair value due to the frequent resets of its floating interest rate.

Senior subordinated notes payable. (classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy) - The carrying amounts of the 7⁷/₈% senior subordinated notes payable were approximately $150.0 million at May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014. As of May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014, the fair value of the 7⁷/₈% senior subordinated notes payable was $159.5 and $160.0 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices.

These estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods.

18. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company and several of its subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the senior subordinated notes payable on a joint and several basis. These guarantees are subject to release in limited circumstances (only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions). The following are condensed consolidating financial statements, which present, in separate columns: Perry Ellis International, Inc. (Parent Only), the Guarantors on a combined, or where appropriate, consolidated basis, and the Non-Guarantors on a combined, or where appropriate, consolidated basis. Additional columns present eliminating adjustments and consolidated totals as of May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014 and for the three months ended May 3, 2014 and May 4, 2013. The combined Guarantors are 100% owned subsidiaries of Perry Ellis International, Inc., and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the senior subordinated notes payable on a joint and several basis.

Effective June 2013, the Company changed its reporting entity structure through the merger of companies under common control. C&C California, LLC (“C&C California”) and Laundry, LLC (“Laundry”) were merged with Supreme International, LLC, a guarantor subsidiary. Prior to their merger and subsequent dissolution, C&C California and Laundry were previously non-guarantor subsidiaries. This change in reporting entity was retrospectively applied to the condensed consolidating financial statements and, consequently, amounts related to C&C California and Laundry are presented in the guarantor subsidiary column for all periods presented.

13

Additionally, subsequent to the issuance of the February 2, 2013 financial statements, the Company determined that the condensed consolidating guarantor financial statements required an adjustment relating to the cash flow classification of certain intercompany transactions between the parent and its affiliates. As a result, the condensed consolidating financial statements have been adjusted to correct prior year amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to reflect certain intercompany activities between the parent and its subsidiaries as cash flows from investing activities that had previously been reflected within cash flows from financing activities.

The effect on the condensed consolidating statement of comprehensive income, as a result of the change in reporting entity, is a decrease of approximately ($0.2) million in net income and comprehensive income to the guarantor subsidiaries for the three months ended May 4, 2013 with a corresponding change to the non-guarantor for the respective period from the previously reported amounts.

The effect on the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows, as a result of the change in reporting entity, is an increase of approximately $29,000 in net cash used in operating activities, an increase of approximately $50,000 in net cash used in investing activities and an increase of approximately $79,000 in net cash provided by financing activities to the guarantor subsidiaries for the three months ended May 4, 2013 with a corresponding change to the non-guarantor for the respective period from the previously reported amounts.

The effect on the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows as a result of the adjustment in intercompany activities is a decrease of approximately ($6.7) million in net cash from financing activities in the parent only column for the three months ended May 4, 2013 with a corresponding change to the net cash from investing activity in the parent only column from the previously reported amounts.

Critical Accounting Policies

Included in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 1, 2014 is a summary of all significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We follow the accounting methods and practices as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In particular, our critical accounting policies and areas in which we use judgment are in the areas of revenue recognition, the estimated collectability of accounts receivable, the recoverability of obsolete or overstocked inventory, the impairment of long-lived assets that are our trademarks and goodwill, the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the measurement of retirement related benefits. We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended May 3, 2014 as compared to those we disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 1, 2014.

EBITDA consists of earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization and income taxes. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and does not represent cash flow from operations. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, presented above, is operating income. EBITDA and EBITDA margin are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that they are a common measure of operating performance in the apparel industry.

The following is a discussion of the results of operations for the three month period in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”) compared with the three month period in the first quarter of the fiscal year ended February 1, 2014 (“fiscal 2014”).

22

Results of Operations—three months ended May 3, 2014 compared to the three months ended May 4. 2013.

Net sales. Men’s Sportswear and Swim net sales for the three months ended May 3, 2014 were $195.0 million, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 1.9%, from $198.7 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The net sales decrease was attributed primarily to planned reductions in private and exclusive brands, partially offset by increases across our golf sportswear brands, Original Penguin and Nike swim.

Women’s Sportswear net sales for the three months ended May 3, 2014 were $34.5 million, a decrease of $5.3 million, or 13.3%, from $39.8 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The net sales decrease was primarily due to decreases in our contemporary Laundry dress and Rafaella due to a shift in special market business to the second half of fiscal 2015.

Direct-to-Consumer net sales for the three months ended May 3, 2014 were $20.4 million, an increase of $3.4 million, or 20.0%, from $17.0 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The increase was driven by a 5.6% comparable same store sales increase driven by Perry Ellis as well as by our direct e-commerce, which posted a 43% comparable sales increase.

Royalty income. Royalty income for the three months ended May 3, 2014 was $7.4 million, an increase of $0.6 million, or 8.8%, from $6.8 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. Royalty income increases were attributed to increases in our Perry Ellis and Original Penguin businesses as well as our licensed only businesses.

Gross profit.Gross profit was $87.7 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 1.1%, from $88.7 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. This decrease is attributed to the sales mix composition described above and the factors described within the gross profit margin section below.

Gross profit margin. As a percentage of total revenue, gross profit margins were 34.1% for the three months ended May 3, 2014, as compared to 33.8% for the three months ended May 4, 2013, an increase of 30 basis points. This increase is primarily associated with higher margins in our Perry Ellis and Rafaella collection businesses, as well as a favorable mix from higher margin international businesses and licensing. The margin expansion also reflected reduced freight costs as a result of the infrastructure rationalization program initiated last year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses.Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 3, 2014 were $69.7 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 1.4%, from $70.7 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The decrease was in line with our expectations. We realized favorability from reduced headcount in our infrastructure, as well as, reduced design and sample expenses. We did, however, make additional investment in brand marketing for our national brands as well as investment in Europe for our golf platform and Original Penguin. Also, during the three months ended May 4, 2013, we experienced costs in the amount of $1.2 million related to our relocation of our New York offices and $0.8 million in costs associated with the sale of the Asian rights of the John Henry trademark that were not repeated during the three months ended May 3, 2014.

EBITDA. Men’s Sportswear and Swim EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 3, 2014 and May 4, 2013 remained flat at 6.5%. The EBITDA margin was adversely impacted by reduced leverage from the increased infrastructure expenditures planned in this segment during fiscal 2015. During fiscal 2014, the margin was also negatively impacted by costs associated with our relocation of our New York offices.

Women’s Sportswear EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 3, 2014 decreased 240 basis points to 2.5%, from 4.9% for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The EBITDA margin was negatively impacted by the reduced leverage due to the decrease in net sales described above. However, the margin was positively impacted by the increase in gross margin experienced in Rafaella sportswear. During fiscal 2014, the margin was negatively impacted by costs associated with the relocation of our New York offices.

Direct-to-Consumer EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 3, 2014 increased 800 basis points to (4.9%), from (12.9%) for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase of revenue from our stores and e-commerce business, as described above. Because of this increase in revenue, we were able to realize a favorable leverage in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Licensing EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 3, 2014 decreased to 73.5%, from 169.4% for the three months ended May 4, 2013. As described below, during the three months ended May 4, 2013, we had a gain on the sale of the Asian rights of the John Henry brand. The gain was the primary reason for the higher EBITDA margin in first quarter of fiscal 2014.

23

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended May 3, 2014, was $3.0 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 7.1%, from $2.8 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The increase is attributed to depreciation related to our capital expenditures, primarily in the direct-to-consumer segment and leasehold improvements made during fiscal 2014.

Gain on sale of long-lived assets. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we entered into a sales agreement, in the amount of $7.5 million, for certain Asian trademark rights with respect our John Henry brand. The transaction closed in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. As a result of this transaction, we recorded a gain of $6.3 million. This gain was included in our licensing segment’s operating income. We plan to continue to execute our domestic strategy for the John Henry brand as a modern lifestyle resource to select retailers as well as its licensing relationships in Latin America.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended May 3, 2014, was $3.7 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 2.6%, from $3.8 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The primary reason for the decrease is related to the savings generated from the refinancing of our mortgage loans in the second half of fiscal 2014.

Income taxes. The income tax expense for the three months ended May 3, 2014, was $3.5 million, a decrease of $2.9 million, as compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. For the three months ended May 3, 2014, our effective tax rate was 30.9% as compared to 36.0% for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The overall change in the effective tax rate is attributed to the unfavorable disallowance of certain executive compensation in fiscal 2014 and the sale of certain intangible rights of the John Henry trademark in fiscal 2014 as well as the change in ratio of income between domestic and foreign operations, of which the domestic operations are taxed at higher statutory tax rates.

Net income.Net income for the three months ended May 3, 2014 was $7.8 million, a decrease of $3.5 million, or 31.0%, as compared to $11.3 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The changes in operating results were due to the items described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We rely principally on cash flow from operations and borrowings under our senior credit facility to finance our operations, acquisitions and capital expenditures; and to a lesser extent, on letter of credit facilities for the acquisition of a small portion of our inventory purchases. We believe that our working capital requirements will decrease for fiscal 2015 driven primarily by lower levels of inventory associated with strong inventory management. As of May 3, 2014, our total working capital was $348.4 million as compared to $278.2 million as of February 1, 2014 and $290.7 million as of May 4, 2013. We believe that our cash flows from operations and availability under our senior credit facility and remaining letter of credit facilities are sufficient to meet our working capital needs and capital expenditure needs over the next year. We also believe that our real estate assets, which had a net book value of $23.1 million at May 3, 2014, have a higher market value. These real estate assets may provide us with additional capital resources. Additional borrowings against these real estate assets, however, would be subject to certain loan to value criteria established by lending institutions. As of May 3, 2014, we had mortgage loans on these properties totaling $23.5 million.

We consider the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries as of May 3, 2014, to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no United States income taxes have been provided thereon. As of May 3, 2014, the amount of cash associated with indefinitely reinvested foreign earnings was approximately $23.5 million. We have not, nor do we anticipate the need to, repatriate funds to the United States to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs associated with our domestic debt service requirements.

Net cash used in operating activities was $47.3 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $14.2 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013.

The cash used in operating activities for three months ended May 3, 2014, is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable of $36.6 million, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $55.2 million and a decrease in accrued interest payable of $3.1 million; which was partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $29.9 million associated with strong inventory management. As a result of the decrease in sales for the first quarter of fiscal as compared to prior quarter, our inventory turnover ratio decreased to 3.3 as compared to 3.9 for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2014.

24

The cash used in operating activities for the three months ended May 3, 2013 is primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $42.2 million, a decrease in accrued interest payable of $3.0 million; which was partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $14.8 million associated with strong inventory management. As a result of the decrease in inventory for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, our inventory turnover ratio increased to 3.9 as compared to 3.3 for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2013.

Net cash used in investing activities was $8.9 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014, as compared to cash used in investing activities of $2.3 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The net cash used during the first three months of fiscal 2015 primarily reflects the purchase of investments of $15.4 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $3.1 million, primarily for leaseholds; offset by the proceeds from the maturities of investments in the amount of $9.5 million. We anticipate capital expenditures during the remainder of fiscal 2015 of $11.0 million to $12.0 million in new leasehold improvements, technology, systems, retail stores, and other expenditures.

The net cash used during the first three months of fiscal 2014 primarily reflects the purchase of property and equipment of $7.2 million, primarily for leaseholds; which was partially offset by proceeds on the sale of certain Asian trademark rights with respect to John Henry of $4.9 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $56.0 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014, as compared to the cash provided by financing activities of $7.4 million for the three months ended May 4, 2013. The net cash provided during the first three months of fiscal 2015 primarily reflects net borrowings on our senior credit facility of $56.4 million; which was partially offset by payments of $0.2 million on our mortgage loans. The net cash provided during the first three months of fiscal 2014 primarily reflects net borrowings on our senior credit facility of $7.7 million; which was partially offset by payments of $0.2 million on our mortgage loans.

Our Board of Directors has authorized us to purchase, from time to time and as market and business conditions warrant, up to $60 million of our common stock for cash in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions through October 31, 2014. Although our Board of Directors allocated a maximum of $60 million to carry out the program, we are not obligated to purchase any specific number of outstanding shares and will reevaluate the program on an ongoing basis.

During fiscal 2014, we repurchased shares of our common stock at a cost of $7.0 million. There has been no open market purchases during fiscal 2015. As of May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014, there were 400,516 shares of treasury stock outstanding at a cost of approximately $7.0 million, respectively.

Acquisitions

None.

7⁷/₈% $150 Million Senior Subordinated Notes Payable

In March 2011, we issued $150 million 7⁷/₈% senior subordinated notes, due April 1, 2019. The proceeds of this offering were used to retire the $150 million 8⁷/₈% senior subordinated notes due September 15, 2013 and to repay a portion of the outstanding balance on the senior credit facility. The proceeds to us were $146.5 million yielding an effective interest rate of 8.0%.

Certain Covenants. The indenture governing the senior subordinated notes contains certain covenants which restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness in certain circumstances, pay dividends or make other distributions on, redeem or repurchase capital stock, make investments or other restricted payments, create liens on assets to secure debt, engage in transactions with affiliates, and effect a consolidation or merger. We are not aware of any non-compliance with any of our covenants in this indenture. We could be materially harmed if we violate any covenants because the indenture's trustee could declare the outstanding notes, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy. In addition, a violation could also constitute a cross-default under the senior credit facility, the letter of credit facilities and the real estate mortgages resulting in all of our debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy.

25

Senior Credit Facility

On January 9, 2014, we amended and restated our existing senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent for the lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent. The Credit Facility provides a revolving credit facility of up to an aggregate amount of $125 million, subject to increases from time to time in increments of $25 million up to a maximum of $200 million. The Credit Facility was extended through December 1, 2018. At May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014, we had outstanding borrowings of $64.6 million and $8.2 million, respectively, under the Credit Facility.

Certain Covenants. The Credit Facility contains certain financial and other covenants, which, among other things, require us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if availability falls below certain thresholds. We are not aware of any non-compliance with any of our covenants in this Credit Facility. These covenants may restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness and liens in certain circumstances, redeem or repurchase capital stock, make certain investments or sell assets. We may pay cash dividends subject to certain restrictions set forth in the covenants including, but not limited to, meeting a minimum excess availability threshold and no occurrence of a default. We could be materially harmed if we violate any covenants, as the lenders under the Credit Facility could declare all amounts outstanding, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If we are unable to repay those amounts, the lenders could proceed against our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries that are borrowers or guarantors. In addition, a covenant violation that is not cured or waived by the lenders could also constitute a cross-default under certain of our other outstanding indebtedness, such as the indenture relating to our 7 7/8% senior subordinated notes due April 1, 2019, our letter of credit facilities, or our real estate mortgage loans. Such a cross-default could result in all of our debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy.

Borrowing Base. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are limited to a borrowing base calculation, which generally restricts the outstanding balance to the sum of (a) 87.5% of eligible receivables plus (b) 87.5% of eligible foreign accounts up to $1.5 million plus (c) the lesser of (i) the inventory loan limit, which equals 80% of the maximum credit under the Credit Facility at the time, (ii) a maximum of 70.0% of eligible finished goods inventory, or 90.0% of the net recovery percentage (as defined in the Credit Facility) of eligible inventory.

Interest. Interest on the outstanding principal balance drawn under the Credit Facility accrues at the prime rate and at the rate quoted by the agent for Eurodollar loans. The margin adjusts quarterly, in a range of 0.50% to 1.00% for prime rate loans and 1.50% to 2.00% for Eurodollar loans, based on the previous quarterly average of excess availability plus excess cash on the last day of the previous quarter.

Security. As security for the indebtedness under the Credit Facility, we granted to the lenders a first priority security interest (subject to liens permitted under the Credit Facility to be senior thereto) in substantially all of our existing and future assets, including, without limitation, accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, general intangibles, equipment and capital stock or membership interests, as the case may be, of certain subsidiaries, and real estate but excluding our non-U.S. subsidiaries and all of our trademark portfolio.

Letter of Credit Facilities

As of May 3, 2014, we maintained two U.S. dollar letter of credit facilities totaling $45.0 million and one letter of credit facility totaling $0.3 million utilized by our United Kingdom subsidiary. Each documentary letter of credit is secured primarily by the consignment of merchandise in transit under that letter of credit and certain subordinated liens on our assets.

During fiscal 2014, we decreased the letter of credit sublimit in our Senior Credit Facility to $30.0 million. As of May 3, 2014 and February 1, 2014, there was $33.9 million and $33.5 million, respectively, available under our existing letter of credit facilities.

Real Estate Mortgage Loans

In July 2010, we paid off the then existing real estate mortgage loan and refinanced our main administrative office, warehouse and distribution facility in Miami with a $13.0 million mortgage loan. The loan is due on August 1, 2020. The interest rate has been modified since the refinancing date. The interest rate was 4.25% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of $71,000 were due based on a 25-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. In July 2013, we amended the mortgage loan agreement to modify the interest rate. The interest rate was reduced to 3.90% per annum and the terms were restated to reflect new monthly payments of principal and interest of $69,000 based on a 25-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. At May 3, 2014, the balance of the real estate mortgage loan totaled $11.6 million, net of discount, of which $365,000 is due within one year.

26

In June 2006, we entered into a mortgage loan for $15 million secured by our Tampa facility. The loan is due on January 23, 2019. The mortgage loan has been refinanced and the interest rate has been modified since such date. The interest rate was 4.00% per annum and quarterly payments of principal and interest of $248,000 were due based on a 20-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. In January 2014, we amended the mortgage loan to modify the interest rate. The interest rate was reduced to 3.25% per annum and the terms were restated to reflect new monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $68,000 based on a 20-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. At May 3, 2014, the balance of the real estate mortgage loan totaled $11.8 million, net of discount, of which approximately $435,000 is due within one year.

The real estate mortgage loans contain certain covenants. We are not aware of any non-compliance with any of these covenants. If we violate any covenants, the lender under the real estate mortgage loan could declare all amounts outstanding thereunder to be immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy. A covenant violation could also constitute a cross-default under our senior credit facility, the letter of credit facilities and the indenture relating to our senior subordinated notes resulting in all our debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are not a party to any “off-balance sheet arrangements” as defined by applicable GAAP and SEC rules.

Effects of Inflation and Foreign Currency Fluctuations

We do not believe that inflation or foreign currency fluctuations significantly affected our results of operations for the three months ended May 3, 2014.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The market risk inherent in our financial statements represents the potential changes in the fair value, earnings or cash flows arising from changes in interest rates. We manage this exposure through regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Our policy allows the use of derivative financial instruments for identifiable market risk exposure, including interest rate.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to market risks for the pricing of cotton and other fibers, which may impact fabric prices. Fabric is a portion of the overall product cost, which includes various components. We manage our fabric prices by using a combination of different strategies including the utilization of sophisticated logistics and supply chain management systems, which allow us to maintain maximum flexibility in our global sourcing of products. This provides us with the ability to re-direct our sourcing of products to the most cost-effective jurisdictions. In addition, we may modify our product offerings to our customers based on the availability of new fibers, yield enhancement techniques and other technological advances that allow us to utilize more cost effective fibers. Finally, we also have the ability to adjust our price points of such products, to the extent market conditions allow. These factors, along with our foreign-based sourcing offices, allow us to procure product from lower cost countries or capitalize on certain tariff-free arrangements, which help mitigate any commodity price increases that may occur. We have not historically managed, and do not currently intend to manage, commodity price exposures by using derivative instruments.

Other

Our current exposure to foreign exchange risk is not significant and accordingly, we have not entered into any transactions to hedge against those risks.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of May 3, 2014 in ensuring that the information

27

required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended May 3, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
