Accounts receivable, net from revenue-generating activities were $120 million as of May 3, 2025, $112 million as of February 1, 2025 and $113 million as of May 4, 2024. Accounts receivable primarily relate to amounts due from the Company’s franchise, license and wholesale partners. Under these arrangements, payment terms are typically 60 to 90 days.

The Company records deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of transfer of control of goods or services. Deferred revenue primarily relates to gift cards, loyalty and credit card programs and direct channel shipments, which are all impacted by seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns. Deferred revenue was $254 million as of May 3, 2025, $269 million as of February 1, 2025 and $298 million as of May 4, 2024. The Company recognized $59 million as revenue in the first quarter of 2025 from amounts recorded as deferred revenue at the beginning of the year. As of May 3, 2025, the Company recorded deferred revenue of $241 million within Accrued Expenses and Other, and $13 million within Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
