NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Elizabeth Arden, Inc. (the "Company") is a manufacturer and marketer of prestige designer fragrances, skin care and cosmetic products to retailers in the United States and approximately 90 countries internationally.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, and all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006 (the "Annual Report"), filed with the Commission.
The consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2006 is derived from the financial statements included in the Annual Report. The other consolidated financial statements presented in this quarterly report are unaudited but include all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature that management considers necessary for the fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.
NOTE 2. (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE
Basic (loss) income per share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted average shares of outstanding common stock, $.01 par value per share ("Common Stock"). The calculation of diluted (loss) income per share is similar to basic (loss) income per share except that the denominator includes potentially dilutive Common Stock such as stock options and non-vested restricted stock. Diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as the assumed exercise of outstanding options, non-vested restricted stock, and the assumed purchases under the employee stock purchase plan would have an anti-dilutive effect.
The following table represents the computation of net (loss) income per share:

ELIZABETH ARDEN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, dilutive options, non-vested restricted stock and the assumed purchases under the employee stock purchase plan of approximately 775,000 shares of Common Stock were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because of their anti-dilutive effect.
The following table shows the options to purchase shares of Common Stock that were outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 where the option exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Common Stock over the applicable period:

NOTE 3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
At September 30, 2006, the Company had outstanding several share-based compensation plans. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the compensation cost that has been charged against income was $2.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The tax benefit related to the compensation cost charged to income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was approximately $0.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2006, there were approximately $14.0 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based arrangements granted under the Company's stock plans. Those costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.1 years.
Stock Options
Effective August 21, 2006, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") granted stock options to 26 managerial employees for 316,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan ("2004 Incentive Plan"). The stock options are due to vest in equal thirds over a three-year period on the dates that are two business days after the Company's financial results for each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2007, 2008 and 2009 are publicly announced, but only if the person receiving the grant is still employed by the Company at the time of vesting. The exercise price of those stock options is $15.00 per share, which was the closing price of the Common Stock on the effective date of grant. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted was $5.85 per share based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The options expire ten years from the date of grant.
The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Common Stock and other factors. The expected term of options represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding and is derived from historical terms and other factors. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Restricted Common Stock
Effective August 21, 2006, the Board granted 138,675 shares of performance-based restricted stock to 70 managerial employees and 142,125 shares of service-based restricted stock to 80 managerial employees. The performance-based restricted stock will vest in full on the date that is two business days after the Company's financial results for fiscal 2009 are released to the public, but only if (i) the person receiving the grant is still employed by the Company and (ii) the Company achieves a cumulative earnings per diluted share target. The service-based restricted stock will vest in equal thirds over a three-year period on the dates that are two business days after the Company's financial results for each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2007, 2008 and 2009 are publicly announced, but only if the person is still employed by the Company. The fair value of the restricted stock granted was based on the closing price of the Comm on Stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock is recorded as additional paid-in capital in shareholders' equity as amortization occurs over the three-year vesting period.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company currently has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") under which employees in certain countries are permitted to deposit after tax funds from their wages for purposes of purchasing Common Stock at a 15% discount from the lower of the closing price of the Common Stock at either the start of the contribution period or the end of the contribution period. The Company expenses the discount taken and the fair value of the "look-back" feature realized by employees upon purchases of Common Stock under the ESPP. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company recorded costs associated with the ESPP of approximately $0.2 million in each of the periods. The next purchase under the ESPP will be consummated on December 1, 2006.
NOTE 4. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Financial Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109," which requires a company to recognize, measure, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions it has taken or expects to take in a tax return. FIN 48 will be effective for the Company beginning in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. In anticipation of the adoption of FIN 48, the Company is in the process of assessing the impact of FIN 48 on its consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("SFAS 157"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Company on July 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 157 on its consolidated financial statements.
Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB 108"), which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for the Company during fiscal 2007 and permits a one-time transitional cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings as of July 1, 2006, for errors that were not previously deemed material, but are material under the guidance in SAB 108. The Company does not believe the adoption of SAB 108 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6. SHORT-TERM DEBT
The Company has a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks, for which JPMorgan Chase Bank is the administrative agent, which provides for borrowings on a revolving basis of up to $300 million (to be set at $250 million after December 31, 2006) with a $25 million sublimit for letters of credit (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility expires in December 2010. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company may increase the size of the Credit Facility up to $300 million without entering into a formal amendment requiring the consent of all of the banks.
On August 11, 2006, the Company amended the Credit Facility in connection with the acquisition of certain assets of Sovereign Sales, LLC ("Sovereign") to (i) increase the credit facility from $200 million to $300 million until December 31, 2006, following which the limit will be set at $250 million, (ii) amend the definition of the borrowing base through December 31, 2006 to increase the borrowings on eligible inventory and provide for a temporary increase in borrowing availability of $25 million, and (iii) include the indebtedness issued and assumed pursuant to the June 2006 acquisition of certain assets of Riviera Concepts, Inc. ("Riviera") and the indebtedness issued pursuant to the August 2006 acquisition of certain assets of Sovereign under "permitted indebtedness" as defined in the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility is guaranteed by all of the Company's U.S. subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are limited to 85% of eligible accounts receivable and 75% (65% December 1 through May 31) of eligible finished goods inventory and are collateralized by a first priority lien on all of the Company's U.S. accounts receivable and inventory. Under the August 2006 amendment, the borrowing limit on eligible finished goods inventory prior to December 31, 2006 ranges from 80% to 90%. The Company's obligations under the Credit Facility rank senior to the Company's 7 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the "7 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes").
The Credit Facility has only one financial maintenance covenant, which is a debt service coverage ratio that must be maintained at not less than 1.1 to 1 if average borrowing availability declines to less than $25 million ($35 million from December 1 through May 31). No financial maintenance covenant was applicable for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company may pay dividends or repurchase Common Stock if the Company maintains borrowing availability after the applicable payment of at least $25 million from June 1 to November 30, and at least $35 million from December 1 to May 31. The Credit Facility restricts the Company from incurring additional non-trade indebtedness (other than refinancing and certain small amounts of indebtedness).
Borrowings under the credit portion of the Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate based on the "Applicable Margin," which is determined by reference to a specific financial ratio. At the Company's option, the Applicable Margin may be applied to either the London InterBank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or the prime rate. The reference ratio for determining the Applicable Margin is a debt service coverage ratio. The Applicable Margin charged on LIBOR loans ranges from 1% to 1.75% and is 0% for prime rate loans. As of September 30, 2006, the Applicable Margin was 1.25% for LIBOR loans and 0% for prime rate loans. The commitment fee on the unused portion of the Credit Facility is 0.25%. As a result of the August 2006 amendment, the interest rate charged on the first $25 million of borrowings will be set at LIBOR plus 2.5% through November 30, 2006 or December 31, 2006, depending on the Company's borrowing availability.
As of September 30, 2006, the Company had $225 million in outstanding borrowings and approximately $4 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility, compared with approximately $40 million in outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2006. As of September 30, 2006, the Company had approximately $316 million of eligible receivables and inventories available as collateral under the Credit Facility. Therefore, the Company had the full $300 million of borrowing capacity available under the Credit Facility with a remaining borrowing availability of approximately $71 million. The Company classifies the Credit Facility as short-term debt on its balance sheet since it expects to reduce outstanding borrowings during the months of December, January and February.

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
At September 30, 2006, the Company had contractual obligations to incur promotional and advertising expenses, which are either fixed commitments or based on net sales for licensed brands, and minimum royalty guarantees in an aggregate amount of $69.3 million through 2011, compared with$75.2 million through 2011 at June 30, 2006.
In October 2005, the Company received a demand from a licensee of certain of the Company's patents alleging the Company had breached the license agreement, indicating that it would not pay any further royalties and requesting that the Company return approximately $3 million in royalty payments already made. The Company believes that it has not breached the license agreement and that the licensee is obligated to continue to make royalty payments. The Company is not able to determine the ultimate outcome of this dispute or estimate the possible loss or range of loss relating to the licensee's claim.
In August 2006, the Company was served with a complaint from a dermatologist alleging that the Company's use of her quote in product advertisements was unauthorized and constituted a false endorsement, false advertising, invasion of privacy, trademark dilution and disparagement, a violation of the right to publicity, fraud and unjust enrichment. In October 2006, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint adding the licensor of the product name to the lawsuit. The plaintiff seeks to enjoin the Company's use of her name and advertising and damages of no less than $2 million, including payments of profits associated with the relevant product, and exemplary and treble damages. The Company believes that the claims lack merit and is vigorously contesting the matter. The Company is not able to determine the ultimate outcome of this dispute or estimate the possible loss or range of loss relating to the plaintiff's claim.
The Company is a party to a number of other legal actions, proceedings or claims. While any action, proceeding or claim contains an element of uncertainty and it is possible that the Company's cash flows and results of operations in a particular quarter or year could be materially affected by the impact of the above noted contingencies, management of the Company believes that the outcome of such actions, proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position or results of operations.
As of September 30, 2006, the Company had notional amounts of 32.3 million Euros and 16.2 million Britishpounds under foreign currency contracts that expire between October 31, 2006 and June 29, 2007 to reduce the exposure of its foreign subsidiary revenues to fluctuations in currency rates. The Company has designated each qualifying foreign currency contract as a cash flow hedge. The gains and losses of these contracts will only be recognized in earnings in the period in which the contracts expire. At September 30, 2006, the unrealized gain, net of taxes, associated with these contracts of approximately $0.2million, is included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The unrealized gain, net of taxes, generated during the three months ended September 30, 2005, was approximately $0.6 million.

ELIZABETH ARDEN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
When appropriate, the Company also enters into and settles foreign currency contracts for Euros, British pounds and Canadian dollars to reduce exposure of the Company's foreign subsidiaries' net balance sheets to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. As of September 30, 2006, there were no such foreign currency contracts outstanding. The realized loss, net of taxes, recognized from contracts in place during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was approximately $0.2 million.
Acquisitions
In June 2006, the Company acquired certain assets of Riviera, including inventory, accounts receivable and certain brand licenses. The net purchase price was approximately $14.2 million and has been preliminarily allocated as follows: $8.2 million for inventory, $1.8 million for accounts receivable, $0.8 million for prepaid, deferred and fixed assets, and $19.2 million for intangible assets, offset by liabilities of $15.8 million (including the assumption of the Riviera Term Note in the principal amount of approximately $3.4 million, a contingent performance liability of $8.6 million and other assumed liabilities). The contingent performance liability was recorded as a result of the negative goodwill resulting from this acquisition. The Company has not finalized its allocation of the purchase price. In addition to the debt issued and liabilities assumed, the Company paid $11.5 million in cash at closing of the acquisition and held $2.7 million in escrow pending satisfaction of certain obligations.
As a result of the acquisition of Sovereign, a distributor of prestige fragrances to mass retail customers in North America, on August 11, 2006 the Company acquired certain assets, including inventory and certain intangible assets. The purchase price was approximately $90.2 million in cash, comprised of $87.7 million paid in cash at closing and approximately $2.5 million in cash to be paid in five installments until January 15, 2007 and $11.0 million in the form of contingent consideration that may be paid over two years from the date of closing if certain financial targets and other conditions are satisfied. The cash portion of the purchase price has been preliminarily allocated as follows: $67.2 million for inventory, $22.2 million for certain intangible assets, and $0.8 million of other assets. If the contingent consideration is paid, the Company will allocate that amount to intangible assets. The Company used the Credit Facili ty to fund the cash portion of the purchase price. The Company has not finalized its allocation of the purchase price among the net assets acquired.
Disposals of Property and Equipment
On August 1, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of its formercorporate headquarters and former distribution facility located on a 13-acre tract of land in Miami Lakes, Florida (the "Miami Lakes Facility"). The Company received approximately $9.9 million in net proceeds relating to the sale of the Miami Lakes Facility and associated equipment.
NOTE 9. REPURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK
On November 2, 2005, the Board authorized the Company to implement a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $40 million of Common Stock through March 31, 2007. As of September 30, 2006, the Company had repurchased 1,715,433 shares of Common Stock on the open market at a cost of $31.4 million, including sales commissions. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company repurchased 377,306 shares of Common Stock at an average price of $15.94 per share on the open market at a cost of $6.0 million, including sales commissions. These repurchases are accounted for under the treasury method.
On November 2, 2006, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $40.0 million of the Company's Common Stock under the terms of the Company's existing stock repurchase program and extended the term of the stock repurchase program from March 31, 2007 to November 30, 2008.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
In connection with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Elizabeth Arden, Inc., is hereby providing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements (as defined in such Act) made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Any statements that are not historical facts and that express, or involve discussions as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "intends," "plans" and "projects") may be forward-looking and may involve estimates and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, any such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and are accompanied by, the following key factors that have a direct bearing on our results of operations:
| |
* | our absence of contracts with customers or suppliers and our ability to maintain and develop relationships with customers and suppliers; |
* | international and domestic economic and business changes that could impact consumer confidence or operations; |
* | the impact of competitive products andpricing; |
* | risks of international operations, including foreign currency fluctuations, economic and political consequences of terrorist attacks, political instability in certain regions of the world, and unexpected factors affecting customer purchasing patterns; |
* | our ability to successfully launch new products and implement our growth strategy; |
* | our ability to successfully and cost-effectively integrate acquired businesses or new brands; |
* | our substantial indebtedness, debt service obligations and restrictive covenants in our revolving credit facility and the indenture for our 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes; |
* | our customers' financial condition; |
* | our ability to access capital for acquisitions; |
* | changes in product mix to less profitable products; |
* | the retention and availability of key personnel; |
* | the assumptions underlying our critical accounting estimates; |
* | delays in shipments, inventory shortages and higher costs of production due to interruption of operations at key third party manufacturing or fulfillment facilities that manufacture or provide logistic services for the majority of our supply of certain products; |
* | the loss of or disruption in our distribution facilities; |
* | changes in the retail, fragrance and cosmetic industries, including the consolidation of retailers and the associated closing of retail doors as well as retailer inventory control practices; |
* | our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; |
* | changes in the legal, regulatory and political environment that impact, or will impact, our business, including changes to customs or trade regulations or accounting standards; |
* | and other risks and uncertainties. |
|
We caution that the factors described herein could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statemen ts.

General
This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained herein and the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes and the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for the year. In the following discussion, all comparisons are with the corresponding items in the prior year period.
Our operations have historically been seasonal, with higher sales generally occurring during the first half of the fiscal year (July through December) as a result of increased demand by retailers in anticipation of, and during, the holiday season. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, approximately 60% of our net sales were made during those months. Due to the size and timing of certain orders from our customers, sales, results of operations, working capital requirements and cash flows can vary between quarters of the same and different years. As a result, we expect to experience variability in net sales, net income, working capital requirements and cash flows on a quarterly basis.
We experience seasonality in our working capital, with peak inventory levels from July to October and peak receivable balances from September to December. Our working capital borrowings are also seasonal and are normally highest in the months of September, October and November. Cash is normally generated during the months of December, January and February of each year, as customer payments on holiday season orders are received.
In June 2006, we acquired certain assets of Riviera Concepts, Inc. including licenses for the fragrance brandsBadgley Mischka,Alfred Sung,HUMMER™,Nanette Lepore,Lulu Guinness,Cynthia Rowley andBob Mackie. In August 2006, we acquired certain assets of Sovereign Sales, LLC, a distributor of fragrance brands to mass market retailers in North America.
Overview
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, net sales increased 12.1%. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 11.4%. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was mainly driven by sales from new brands, including thewith Love...Hilary Duff andDanielle by Danielle Steel fragrances, the Prevage skin care line, and sales from the Riviera brands acquired. Also contributing to the increase were higher sales of fragrances due to the Sovereign acquisition, partially offset by the loss of distributed brands previously manufactured by Unilever Cosmetics, and lower sales of the Britney Spears fragrances. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 14.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to the prior year period principally due to higher promotional and product development costs related to new fragrance launches, higher compensation co sts, transition costs related to the recent acquisitions, and the unfavorable effect of foreign exchange rates. Selling, general and administrative expenses were also affected by restructuring costs, primarily in our European operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We believe the accounting policies below represent our critical accounting policies. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006 for a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies.
Accounting for Acquisitions and Intangible Assets. We have accounted for our acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. Under the purchase method of accounting, the cost, including transaction costs, are allocated to the underlying net assets, based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
The judgments made in determining the estimated fair value and expected useful lives assigned to each class of assets and liabilities acquired can significantly affect net income. For example, different classes of assets will have useful lives that differ and the useful life of property, plant, and equipment acquired will differ substantially from the useful life of brand licenses and trademarks. Consequently, to the extent a longer-lived asset is ascribed greater value under the purchase method than a shorter-lived asset, net income in a given period may be higher.
- 20 -
Determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities acquired is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. One of the areas that requires more judgment is determining the fair value and useful lives of intangible assets. To assist in this process, we often obtain appraisals from independent valuation firms for certain intangible assets.
Our intangible assets primarily consist of exclusive brand licenses and trademarks. The value of our intangible assets, including brand licenses, trademarks and other intangibles, is exposed to future adverse changes if we experience declines in operating results or experience significant negative industry or economic trends. We periodically review intangible assets, at least annually or more often as circumstances dictate, for impairment and the useful life assigned using the guidance of applicable accounting literature.
We have determined that the Elizabeth Arden trademarks have indefinite useful lives, as cash flows from the use of the trademarks are expected to be generated indefinitely. In the third quarter ended March 31, 2006, we performed our annual impairment testing of these assets with the assistance of a third party valuation firm. The analyses and assessments of these assets indicated that no impairment adjustment was required.
We have not finalized the allocation of the purchase price among the net assets acquired as part of the recent acquisitions of Sovereign and Riviera.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization is provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Periodically, we review the lives assigned to our long-lived assets, and adjust the lives, as circumstances dictate.
Long-Lived Assets. We review for the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. Measurement of an impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset compared to its carrying value. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Revenue Recognition. Sales are recognized when title and risk of loss transfers to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility of the resulting receivable is probable. Sales are recorded net of estimated returns and other allowances. The provision for sales returns represents management's estimate of future returns based on historical experience and considering current external factors and market conditions.
Allowances for Sales Returns and Markdowns. As is customary in the prestige beauty business, we grant certain of our customers, subject to our authorization and approval, the right to either return product or to receive a markdown allowance for certain promotional product. Upon sale, we record a provision for product returns and markdowns estimated based on our historical and projected experience, economic trends and changes in customer demand. There is considerable judgment used in evaluating the factors influencing the allowance for returns and markdowns, and additional allowances in any particular period may be needed.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts Receivable. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts to cover uncollectible accounts receivable, and we evaluate our accounts receivable to determine if they will ultimately be collected. This evaluation includes significant judgments and estimates, including an analysis of receivables aging and a customer-by-customer review for large accounts. If, for example, the financial condition of our customers deteriorates resulting in an impairment of their ability to pay, additional allowances may be required.
Provisions for Inventory Obsolescence. We record a provision for estimated obsolescence and shrinkage of inventory. Our estimates consider the cost of inventory, forecasted demand, the estimated market value, the shelf life of the inventory and our historical experience. If there are changes to these estimates, additional provisions for inventory obsolescence may be necessary.
Hedge Contracts. We have designated each qualifying foreign currency contract we have entered into as a cash flow hedge. Unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, associated with these contracts are included in accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet. Gains and losses will only be recognized in earnings in the period in which the contracts expire.

Stock-Based Compensation. All share-based payments to employees, including the grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. Compensation cost for awards that vest will not be reversed if the awards expire without being exercised. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the market-based restricted stock awards is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, and the fair value of all other restricted stock awards is based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. Compensation costs for awards are amortized using the straight-line method. Option pricing model input assumptions such as expected term, expected volatility and risk-free interest rate impact the fair value estimate. Further, the forfeiture rate impacts the a mount of aggregate compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions are based on or determined from external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with share-basedarrangements. The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.
We rely on our historical experience and post-vested termination activity to provide data for estimating our expected term for use in determining the fair value of our stock options. We currently estimate our stock volatility by considering our historical stock volatility experience and other key factors. The risk-free interest rate is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term used as the input to the Black-Scholes model. We estimate forfeitures using our historical experience. Our estimates of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from their estimates.
Income Taxes and Valuation Reserves. A valuation allowance may be required to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We consider projected future taxable income and ongoing tax planning strategies in assessing a potential valuation allowance. In the event we determine that we may not beable to realize all or part of our deferred tax asset in the future, or that new estimates indicate that a previously recorded valuation allowance is no longer required, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged or credited to net income in the period of such determination.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2005
Net Sales. Net sales increased 12.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 11.4%. The increase is due to approximately $24 million of net sales from new brands, including thewith Love...Hilary DuffandDanielle by Danielle Steel fragrances, the Prevage skin care line launched in December 2005, and the brands acquired as part of the Riviera acquisition. Also contributing to the increase was approximately $17 million of higher sales of distributed fragrances, primarily due to the Sovereign acquisition, partially offset by the loss of distributed brands previously manufactured by Unilever Cosmetics, and approximately $8 million of lower sales of the Britney Spears fragrances. Pricing changes had an immaterial effect on net sales.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by 11.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the higher sales volumes. Gross margin remained relatively flat decreasing to 38.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from 39.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2005.
SG&A. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 14.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 over the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase was principally due to higher promotional and product development costs of $3.4 million mainly related to new fragrance launches, employee compensation costs of $2.6 million, and the unfavorable effect of foreign exchange rates of $1.3 million. Also contributing to the increase were costs of $1.2 million in connection with our restructuring plans announced in May 2006, primarily in our European operations, and transition costs associated with the Riviera and Sovereign acquisitions.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by 20.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is primarily a result of the amortization of intangible assets associated with the Riviera and Sovereign acquisitions and higher depreciation costs due to the higher level of capital additions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the previous years.
Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by 20.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is a result of higher average borrowings under our credit facility including the approximately $88 million of cash paid at closing for the Sovereign acquisition.
(Benefit from) Provision for Income Taxes. A benefit from income taxes of approximately $0.5 million was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to a provision for income taxes of approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, due to lower income from operations and higher interest expense. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was 25.6% and 30.5%, respectively, reflecting anticipated increased earnings contributions from our international affiliates in the current year as compared to what we were expecting at September 30, 2005. Our international affiliates generally have lower tax rates than our U.S. operations.
Net (Loss) Income. Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $1.3 million as compared to net income of $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease was primarily a result of lower income from operations due to the higher selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses and higher interest costs.
EBITDA. EBITDA (net income plus the provision for income taxes (or net loss less the benefit from income taxes), plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization expense) decreased by $0.7 million to $12.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $12.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease in EBITDA was primarily the result of higher selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher net sales and gross profit.
- 23 -
EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income (loss) or net income (loss) (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) or as a measure of our ability to meet cash needs. We believe that EBITDA is a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure of a company's operating performance and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to capital structure (particularly when acquisitions are involved), depreciation and amortization, or non-operating factors such as historical cost. Accordingly, as a result of our capital structure, we believe EBITDA is a relevant measure. This information has been disclosed here to permit a more complete comparative analysis of our operating performance relative to other companies and of our debt servicing ability. EBITDA may not, however, be comparable in all instances to other similar types of measures.
In addition, EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, including the fact that:
* | it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| |
* | it does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; |
| |
* | it does not reflect any cash income taxes that we may be required to pay; and |
| |
* | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. |
The following is a reconciliation of net income, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, to EBITDA:

Net cash provided by financing activities | | 178,886 | | | | 75,952 | |
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents | | 11,074 | | | | 929 | |
Cash Flows. Net cash used in operating activities decreased by approximately $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2006 is primarily due to increases totaling approximately $36 million in accounts payable and other payables and accrued expenses as a result of timing of payments to vendors, partially offset by an approximate $22 million increase in inventory due to the Riviera and Sovereign acquisitions and an approximate $11 million increase in accounts receivable as a result of the higher sales volumes.
- 24 -
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $92 million, as compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in net cash used in investing activities is primarily a result of approximately $88 million in cash paid at closing in connection with the Sovereign acquisition. Additionally, we realized approximately $10 million of cash proceeds from the sale of our Miami Lakes facility in the prior year period.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased by approximately $103 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily due to additional borrowings under our credit facility, including approximately $88 million used to fund the Sovereign acquisition partially offset by approximately $6 million to fund repurchases of common stock.
Interest paid during the three months ended September 30, 2006 included $8.7 million of interest payments on the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2014 that covered the period from February 16, 2006 through August 15, 2006. Interest paid during the three months ended September 30, 2005 included $8.6million interest payments on the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes that covered the period from February 16, 2005 through August 15, 2005.
Future Liquidity and Capital Needs. Our principal future uses of funds are for working capital requirements, including brand development and marketing expenses, new product launches, additional brand acquisitions or product distribution arrangements, capital expenditures and debt service. In addition, we may use funds to repurchase our common stock and notes. We have historically financed, and we expect to continue to finance, our needs primarily through internally generated funds, our credit facility and external financing. We collect cash from our customers based on our sales to them and their respective payment terms.
We have a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks, for which JPMorgan Chase Bank is the administrative agent, which provides for borrowings on a revolving basis of up to $300 million (to be set at $250 million after December 31, 2006) with a $25 million sublimit for letters of credit. The credit facility expires in December 2010. Under the terms of the credit facility, we may increase the size of the credit facility up to $300 million without entering into a formal amendment requiring the consent of all of the banks.
On August 11, 2006, we amended the credit facility in connection with the acquisition of certain assets of Sovereign to (i) increase the credit facility from $200 million to $300 million until December 31, 2006, following which the limit will be set at $250 million, (ii) amend the definition of the borrowing base through December 31, 2006 to increase the borrowings on eligible inventory and provide for a temporary increase in borrowing availability of $25 million, and (iii) include the indebtedness issued and assumed pursuant to the June 2006 acquisition of certain assets of Riviera and the indebtedness issued pursuant to the August 2006 acquisition of certain assets of Sovereign under "permitted indebtedness" as defined in the credit facility.
The credit facility is guaranteed by all of our U.S. subsidiaries. Borrowings under the credit facility are limited to 85% of eligible accounts receivable and 75% (65% December 1 through May 31) of eligible finished goods inventory and are collateralized by a first priority lien on all of the our U.S. accounts receivable and inventory. Under the August 2006 amendment, the borrowing limit on eligible finished goods inventory prior to December 31, 2006 ranges from 80% to 90%. Our obligations under the credit facility rank senior to our 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2014.
The credit facility has only one financial maintenance covenant, which is a debt service coverage ratio that must be maintained at not less than 1.1 to 1 if average borrowing availability declines to less than $25 million ($35 million from December 1 through May 31). No financial maintenance covenant was applicable for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Under the terms of the credit facility, we may pay dividends or repurchase common stock if we maintain borrowing availability after the applicable payment of at least $25 million from June 1 to November 30, and at least $35 million from December 1 to May 31. The credit facility restricts us from incurring additional non-trade indebtedness (other than refinancing and certain small amounts of indebtedness).
- 25 -
Borrowings under the credit portion of the credit facility bear interest at a floating rate based on the "Applicable Margin," which is determined by reference to a specific financial ratio. At our option, the Applicable Margin may be applied to either the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the prime rate. The reference ratio for determining the Applicable Margin is a debt service coverage ratio. The Applicable Margin charged on LIBOR loans ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% and is 0% for prime rate loans. As of September 30, 2006, the Applicable Margin was 1.25% for LIBOR loans and 0% for prime rate loans. The commitment fee on the unused portion of the credit facility is 0.25%. As a result of the August 2006 amendment, the interest rate charged on the first $25 million of borrowings will be at LIBOR plus 2.5% through November 30, 2006 or December 31, 2006, depending on our borrowing availability.
As of September 30, 2006, we had $225 million in outstanding borrowings and approximately $4 million in letters of credits outstanding under the credit facility and approximately $316 million of eligible receivables and inventories available as collateral under the credit facility. Therefore, we had the full $300 million of borrowing capacity available under the credit facility with a remaining borrowing availability of approximately $71 million. We used approximately $88 million of borrowings under our credit facility to pay a majority of the purchase price for the acquisition of certain assets of Sovereign.
We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents, internally generated funds and borrowings under our credit facility will be sufficient to cover debt service, working capital requirements and capital expenditures for the next twelve months other than additional working capital requirements that may result from further expansion of our operations through acquisitions of additional brands or new product launches or distribution arrangements.
Repurchases of Common Stock. On November 2, 2005, our board of directors authorized us to implement a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $40 million of our common stock through March 31, 2007. As of September 30, 2006, we have repurchased 1,715,433 shares of common stock on the open market at a cost of $31.4 million, including sales commissions. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, we repurchased 377,306 shares of common stock at an average price of $15.94 per share on the open market at a cost of $6.0 million, including sales commissions. These repurchases are accounted for under the treasury method.
On November 2, 2006, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $40.0 million of our common stock under the terms of our existing stock repurchase program and extended the term of the stock repurchase program from March 31, 2007 to November 30, 2008.
Contractual Obligations. At September 30, 2006, we had contractual obligations to incur promotional and advertising expenses, which are either fixed commitments or based on net sales for licensed brands, and minimum royalty guarantees in an aggregate amount of $69.3 million through 2011 compared with $75.2 million through 2011 at June 30, 2006.
New Accounting Standards
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109," which requires a company to recognize, measure, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions it has taken or expects to take in a tax return. This interpretation will be effective for us beginning in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. In anticipation of the adoption of this interpretation, we are in the process of assessing the impact of this interpretation on our consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157,Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for us July 1, 2008 .We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial statements.
- 26 -
Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements," which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective during fiscal 2007 and permits a one-time transitional cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings as of July 1, 2006, for errors that were not previously deemed material, but are material under the guidance in SAB 108. We do not believe the adoption of SAB 108 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
As of September 30, 2006, we had $225 million in borrowings outstanding under our credit facility. Borrowings under our credit facility are seasonal, with peak borrowings in the months of September, October and November. Borrowings under the credit facility are subject to variable rates and, accordingly, our earnings and cash flow will be affected by changes in interest rates. Based upon our average borrowings under our credit facility during the quarter ended September 30, 2006, and assuming there had been a two percentage point change in the average interest rate for these borrowings, it is estimated that our interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2006 would have increased or decreased by approximately $0.8 million. See Note 6 to the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Foreign Currency Risk
We sell our products in approximately 90 countries around the world. During the three months ended September 30, 2006, we derived approximately 35%of our net sales from our international operations. We conduct our international operations in a variety of different countries and derive our sales in various currencies including the Euro, British pound, Swiss franc, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar, as well as the U.S. dollar. Our operations may be subject to volatility because of currency changes, inflation changes and changes in political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate. With respect to international operations, our sales, cost of goods sold and expenses are typically denominated in a combination of local currency and the U.S. dollar. Our results of operations are reported in U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in currency rates can affect our reported sales, margins, operating costs and the ant icipated settlement of our foreign denominated receivables and payables. Most of our skin care and cosmetic products are produced in a third-party manufacturing facility located in Roanoke, Virginia. A weakening of the foreign currencies in which we generate sales relative to the currencies in which our costs are denominated, which is primarily the U.S. dollar, may decrease our reported cash flow and operating profits. Our competitors may or may not be subject to the same fluctuations in currency rates, and our competitive position could be affected by these changes. The cumulative effect of translating balance sheet accounts from the functional currency into the U.S. dollar at current exchange rates is included in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in our consolidated balance sheets.
As of September 30, 2006, we had notional amounts of 32.3 million Euros and 16.2 million British pounds under foreign currency contracts that expire between October 31, 2006 and June 29, 2007 to reduce the exposure of our foreign subsidiary revenues to fluctuations in currency rates. We have designated each qualifying foreign currency contract as a cash flow hedge. The gains and losses of these contracts will only be recognized in earnings in the period in which the contracts expire. At September 30, 2006, the unrealized gain, net of taxes associated with these contracts of approximately $0.2 million, is included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The unrealized gain, net of taxes, generated during the three months ended September 30, 2006, was approximately $0.6 million.
- 27 -
When appropriate, we also enter into and settle foreign currency contracts for Euros, British pounds and Canadian dollars to reduce exposure of our foreign subsidiaries' net balance sheets to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. As of September 30, 2006, there were no such foreign currency contracts outstanding. The realized loss, net of taxes recognized from contracts in place during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was approximately $0.2 million.
We do not utilize foreign exchange contracts for trading or speculative purposes. There can be no assurance that our hedging operations or other exchange rate practices, if any, will eliminate or substantially reduce risks associated with fluctuating exchange rates.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, who are the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have evaluated the effectiveness and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based upon such evaluation, they have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
