DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)



(1)                     General
 
(a)        Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation for each of the periods presented.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for full fiscal years or other interim periods.  Deckers Outdoor Corporation (also referred to as Deckers or the Company) is a global leader in designing, marketing and distributing innovative footwear, apparel, and accessories developed for both everyday casual lifestyle use and high performance activities.  The Company’s business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of UGG® brand net sales occurring in the quarters ending September 30 and December 31 and the highest percentage of Teva® and Sanuk® brand net sales occurring in the quarters ending March 31 and June 30 of each year.  The other brands do not have a significant seasonal impact on the Company.

In February 2014, our Board of Directors approved a change in the Company's fiscal year (FY) end from December 31 to March 31. The change is intended to better align our planning, financial and reporting functions with the seasonality of our business.
 
We sell our brands through our quality domestic retailers and international distributors and retailers, as well as directly to our end-user consumers through our E-Commerce business and our retail stores.  Independent third parties manufacture all of our products.
 
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been condensed and do not contain certain information that will be included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014 (Annual Report).
 
(b)        Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements and other factors that management believes to be reasonable.  Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to inventory write-downs, accounts receivable reserves, returns liabilities, stock compensation, performance based compensation, impairment assessments, depreciation and amortization, income tax liabilities and uncertain tax positions, fair value of financial instruments, and fair values of acquired intangibles, assets and liabilities, including estimated contingent consideration payments.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

(c) Recent Accounting Pronouncement

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in US GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on April 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

(3)                    Fair Value Measurements
 
The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other current assets, short-term borrowings, trade accounts payable, accrued payroll, accrued expenses, income taxes payable and VAT payable approximate the carrying values due to the relatively short maturities of these instruments.  The fair values of the Company’s long-term liabilities, other than contingent consideration, recalculated using current interest rates, would not significantly differ from the recorded amounts.  The fair value of the contingent consideration related to acquisitions and of the Company's derivatives are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.  Changes in fair value resulting from either accretion or changes in discount rates or in the expectations of achieving the performance targets are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A). The Company records the fair value of assets or liabilities associated with derivative instruments and hedging activities in other current assets or other accrued expenses, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
 
In 2010, the Company established a nonqualified deferred compensation program that permits a select group of management employees to defer earnings to a future date on a nonqualified basis.  For each plan year, on behalf of the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors (the Board) may, but is not required to, contribute any amount it desires to any participant under this program.  The Company’s contribution will be determined by the Board annually in the quarter ending December 31.  The value of the deferred compensation is recognized based on the fair value of the participants’ accounts.  The Company has established a rabbi trust as a reserve for the benefits payable under this program.  The assets of the trust are reported in other assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.  All amounts deferred are presented in long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
 
The inputs used in measuring fair value are prioritized into the following hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

The Level 2 inputs consist of forward spot rates at the end of the reporting period (see note 7).
 
The fair value of the contingent consideration is based on subjective assumptions.  It is reasonably possible the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration could change in the near-term and the effect of the change could be material.
 
Sanuk®
 
The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration attributable to our Sanuk® (Sanuk) brand acquisition is based on the Sanuk brand estimated future gross profit in calendar year 2015, using a probability weighted average sales forecast to determine a best estimate of gross profit.  The estimated sales forecast includes a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.7% from calendar year 2013 through calendar year 2015.  The gross profit forecast for calendar year 2015 is approximately $78,000, which is then used to apply the contingent consideration percentage in accordance with the applicable agreement.  The total estimated contingent consideration is then discounted to the present value with a discount rate of 7.0%.  The Company’s use of different estimates and assumptions could produce different estimates of the value of the contingent consideration.  For example, a 5.0% change in the estimated CAGR would change the total liability balance at June 30, 2014 by approximately $2,000.
 
Hoka One One®
 
In connection with the Company’s acquisition of the Hoka One One® (Hoka) brand, the purchase price includes contingent consideration with maximum payments of $2,000, which is based on the Hoka brand’s net sales for calendar years 2013 through 2017. The Company estimates future net sales using a probability weighted average sales forecast to determine a best estimate.  The Company’s use of different estimates and assumptions is not expected to have a material impact to the value of the contingent consideration.
 
Refer to note 5 for further information on the contingent consideration arrangements.

(4)      Notes Payable and Long Term Debt
 
At June 30, 2014, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $100.  As a result, the unused balance under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was approximately $399,900 at June 30, 2014.  After applying the asset coverage ratio and adjusted leverage ratio, the amount available to borrow at June 30, 2014 was approximately $256,300.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $3,200 of outstanding borrowings under the China Credit Facility. Interest is based on the People’s Bank of China rate, which was 6.0% at June 30, 2014. Subsequent to June 30, 2014, the Company borrowed approximately $4,900 resulting in a total outstanding balance of approximately $8,100 under the China Credit Agreement through August 11, 2014.

Subsequent to June 30, 2014, the Company obtained a mortgage on its corporate headquarters property for approximately $33,900.  The mortgage has a fixed interest rate of 4.928%.  The loan is amortized for a 30 year period.  The loan will mature and have a balloon payment due in 15 years.  The loan will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The mortgage contains financial covenants which include:  the asset coverage ratio must be greater than 1.10 to 1.00; the sum of the consolidated annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and annual rental expense, divided by the sum of the annual interest expense and the annual rental expense must be greater than 2.25 to 1.00; and other customary limitations.

(5)              Commitments and Contingencies
 
The Company is currently involved in various legal claims arising in the ordinary course of business.  Management does not believe that the disposition of these matters, whether individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
Contingent Consideration.  In July 2011, the Company acquired the Sanuk brand, and the total purchase price included contingent consideration payments.  As of June 30, 2014, the remaining contingent consideration payment, which has no maximum, is 40.0% of the Sanuk brand gross profit in calendar year 2015.
 
As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, contingent consideration for the acquisition of the Sanuk brand of approximately $28,000 is included within long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Refer to note 3 for further information on the contingent consideration amounts.
 
In September 2012, the Company acquired Hoka, and the total purchase price included contingent consideration payments with a maximum of $2,000.  As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, contingent consideration for the acquisition of the Hoka brand of approximately $1,600 and $1,800, respectively, is included within other accrued expenses and long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Refer to note 3 for further information on the contingent consideration amounts.
 
Future Capital Commitments. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $21,000 of material commitments for future capital expenditures primarily related to equipment costs of its new distribution center.

Income Taxes.  The Company files income tax returns in the US federal jurisdiction and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions.  When tax returns are filed, some positions taken are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which the Company believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that

is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The portion of the benefits that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to US federal, state, local, or non-US income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.
 
Although the Company believes its tax estimates are reasonable and prepares its tax filings in accordance with all applicable tax laws, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the Company’s estimates or from its historical income tax provisions and accruals.  The results of an audit or litigation could have a material effect on operating results or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made.  In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties, or interest assessments.
 
The Company has ongoing income tax examinations under various state tax jurisdictions.  It is the opinion of management that these audits and inquiries will not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
Indemnification.   The Company has agreed to indemnify certain of its licensees, distributors, and promotional partners in connection with claims related to the use of the Company’s intellectual property.  The terms of such agreements range up to five years initially and generally do not provide for a limitation on the maximum potential future payments.  From time to time, the Company also agrees to indemnify its licensees, distributors and promotional partners in connection with claims that the Company’s products infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties.  These agreements may or may not be made pursuant to a written contract.
 
Management believes the likelihood of any payments under any of these arrangements is remote and would be immaterial.  This determination was made based on a prior history of insignificant claims and related payments.  There are no currently pending claims relating to indemnification matters involving the Company’s intellectual property.
 
(6)      Stockholders’ Equity
 
In May 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (2006 Plan), which was amended by Amendment No. 1 dated May 9, 2007.  The primary purpose of the 2006 Plan is to encourage ownership in the Company by key personnel, whose long-term service is considered essential to the Company’s continued success.  The 2006 Plan reserves 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance to employees, directors, or consultants.  The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the 2006 Plan through the exercise of incentive stock options (Options) is 4,500,000.  Pursuant to the Deferred Stock Unit Compensation Plan, a sub plan under the 2006 Plan, a participant may elect to defer settlement of their outstanding unvested awards until such time as elected by the participant.
 
The Company has elected to grant nonvested stock units (NSUs) annually to key personnel.  The NSUs granted entitle the employee recipients to receive shares of common stock in the Company upon vesting of the NSUs.  The vesting of most NSUs is subject to achievement of certain performance targets.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company granted approximately 35,000 NSUs at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $86.03 per share, as well as approximately 19,000 time-based equity awards at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $78.78 per share under the 2006 Plan. The NSUs will vest in equal one-third installments at the end of each of the three years after the performance goal has been achieved, and the time-based equity awards have no Company performance targets and will vest in equal annual installments over a three year period. The vesting schedule for these awards was established to encourage officers and key employees to remain with our Company for the long-term. As of June 30, 2014, future unrecognized compensation cost for these NSU and time-based equity awards, excluding estimated forfeitures, is approximately $4,300. As of June 30, 2014, the Company believed that the achievement of at least the threshold performance objective of the NSU awards was probable, and therefore recognized compensation expense accordingly for these awards.

On a quarterly basis, the Company grants fully-vested shares of its common stock to each of its outside directors.  The fair value of such shares is expensed on the date of issuance.
 
In June 2012, the Company approved a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $200,000 of the Company’s common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements,

and other factors.  The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the program may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.  There was no stock repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2014.  As of June 30, 2014, the Company had repurchased approximately 2,765,000 shares under this program, for approximately $120,700, or an average price of $43.66 per share, leaving the remaining approved amount at approximately $79,300.

Subsequent to June 30, 2014, the Company granted approximately 105,000 NSUs at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $82.85 per share, as well as approximately 4,000 time-based equity awards at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $82.85 per share under the 2006 Plan. Future unrecognized compensation cost for these awards, excluding estimated forfeitures, is approximately $9,000.

(7)                Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts and Hedging
 
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash-flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $64,000, held by four counterparties and had non-designated derivative contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately $34,000, held by one counterparty. At March 31, 2014, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash-flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $64,000, held by four counterparties. At June 30, 2014, the outstanding contracts were expected to mature over the next 6 months.
 
The nonperformance risk of the Company and the counterparties did not have a material impact on the fair value of the derivatives.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the ineffective portion relating to these hedges was immaterial and the hedges remained effective as of June 30, 2014.  The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI/L) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.  As of June 30, 2014, the total amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI/L) (see note 8) was expected to be reclassified into income within the next 9 months.

(10) Business Segments, Concentration of Business, and Credit Risk and Significant Customers
 
The Company’s accounting policies of the segments below are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Annual Report, except that the Company does not allocate corporate overhead costs or non-operating income and expenses to segments.  The Company evaluates segment performance primarily based on net sales and income or loss from operations.  The Company’s reportable segments include the strategic business units for the worldwide wholesale operations of the UGG brand, Teva brand, Sanuk brand, and other brands, its E-Commerce business and its retail store business.  The wholesale operations of each brand are managed separately because each requires different marketing, research and development, design, sourcing, and sales strategies.  The E-Commerce and retail store segments are managed separately because they are Direct-to-Consumer sales, while the brand segments are wholesale sales.  The income or loss from operations for each of the segments includes only those costs that are specifically related to each segment, which consist primarily of cost of sales, costs for research and development, design, selling and marketing, depreciation, amortization, and the costs of employees and their respective expenses that are directly related to each segment.  The unallocated corporate overhead costs include: costs of the distribution centers, certain executive and stock compensation, accounting and finance, legal, information technology, human resources, and facilities costs, among others.

The Company’s other brands include TSUBO®, Ahnu®, MOZO®, and Hoka One One® (Hoka).  The wholesale operations of the Company’s other brands are included as one reportable segment, other wholesale, presented in the figures below.  Business segment information is summarized as follows:

The Company does not consider international operations a separate segment, as management reviews such operations in the aggregate with the aforementioned segments. Long-lived assets, which consist of property and equipment, in the US and all other countries combined were as follows:

$

No other country’s long-lived assets comprised more than 10% of total long-lived assets as of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014.

The Company sells its products to customers throughout the US and to foreign customers located in Europe, Canada, Australia, Asia, and Latin America, among other regions.  International sales were 37.5% and 35.3% of the Company’s total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, no single foreign country comprised more than 10% of total net sales.

Management performs regular evaluations concerning the ability of its customers to satisfy their obligations and records a provision for doubtful accounts based upon these evaluations.  No single customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales for either the three months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013.  As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the Company had one customer representing 11.1% and 11.8% of net trade accounts receivable, and a second customer representing 10.4% and 11.4% of net trade accounts receivable, respectively.

The Company’s production is concentrated at a limited number of independent contractor factories.  Sheepskin is the principal raw material for certain UGG products and the majority of sheepskin is purchased from two tanneries in China, which is sourced primarily from Australia, Europe and the US. The source for other materials used by the Company is concentrated in China and Vietnam. The Company’s operations are subject to the customary risks of doing business abroad, including, but not limited to, currency fluctuations, customs duties and related fees, various import controls and other nontariff barriers, restrictions on the transfer of funds, labor unrest and strikes and, in certain parts of the world, political instability.  The supply of sheepskin can be adversely impacted by weather conditions, disease, and harvesting decisions that are completely outside the Company’s control.  Further, the price of sheepskin is impacted by demand, industry, and competitors.

A portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held as cash in operating accounts that are with third party financial institutions.  These balances, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.  While the Company regularly monitors the cash balances in its operating accounts and adjusts the balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets.  As of June 30, 2014, the Company had experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in its operating accounts.
 
The remainder of the Company’s cash equivalents is invested in interest bearing funds managed by third party investment management institutions.  These investments can include US treasury bonds and securities, money market funds, and municipal bonds, among other investments. Certain of these investments are subject to general credit, liquidity, market, and

interest rate risks.  Investment risk has been and may further be exacerbated by US mortgage defaults, credit and liquidity issues, and sovereign debt concerns in Europe, which have affected various sectors of the financial markets.  As of June 30, 2014, the Company had experienced no loss or lack of access to its invested cash and cash equivalents.  The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are as follows:

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 

SPECIAL NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This report and the information incorporated by reference in this report contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that concern matters that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or projected in the forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements are intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this interim report, including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance, our future business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “project,” ‘plan”, “predict”, “should,” “will,” and similar expressions, or the negative of these expressions, as they relate to us, our management and our industry.  Specifically, this report and the information incorporated by reference in this report contain forward-looking statements relating to, among other things:
 
our global business, growth, operating, investing, and financing strategies;
our product, distribution channel, and geographic mix;
the success of new products, new brands, and other growth initiatives;
the impact of seasonality on our operations;
expectations regarding our net sales and earnings growth and other financial metrics;
our development of worldwide distribution channels;
trends affecting our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows;
our expectations for expansion of our retail and E-Commerce capabilities;
information security and privacy of customer, employee or company information;
overall global economic trends;
reliability of overseas factory production and storage; and
the availability and cost of raw materials.

13


We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about trends affecting our business and industry and other future events.  Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy.
 
Some of the risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements are described in Part II, Item 1A of this interim report in the section entitled “Risk Factors,” as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  In addition, actual results may differ as a result of additional risks and uncertainties of which we are currently unaware or which we do not currently view as material to our business.  We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and we cannot predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business 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 statements. As a result, actual results may differ materially from the results stated in or implied by our forward-looking statements.  Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect our opinions only as of the date of this quarterly report, as a prediction of actual results.
 
You should read this report in its entirety, together with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year (FY) ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014 (Annual Report), and the documents that we file as exhibits to these reports and the documents that we incorporate by reference in these reports, with the understanding that our future results may be materially different from what we currently expect.  We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements and we expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date hereof to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our opinions or expectations, except as required by applicable law or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange.
 
References to “Deckers,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or similar terms refer to Deckers Outdoor Corporation together with its consolidated subsidiaries.  Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all amounts herein are expressed in thousands, except for share quantity, per share data, and selling prices per pair.  The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to those statements included elsewhere in this document.

Overview
We are a global leader in designing, marketing and distributing innovative footwear, apparel and accessories developed for both everyday casual lifestyle use and high performance activities.  We market our products primarily under three proprietary brands:
UGG®: Premier brand in luxurious comfort footwear, handbags, apparel, and cold weather accessories;
Teva®: Born from the outdoors, active lifestyle footwear for the adventurous spirit; and
Sanuk®: Innovative action sport footwear brand rooted in the surf community.
In addition to our primary brands, our other brands include TSUBO®, a line of mid and high-end dress and dress casual footwear that incorporates style, function and maximum comfort; Ahnu®, an active lifestyle brand that is rooted with a yoga-inspired mindset; MOZO®, a line of footwear crafted for culinary professionals that redefines the industry dress code; and Hoka One One® (Hoka), a line of footwear for all capacities of runner designed with a unique performance midsole geometry, oversized midsole volume and active foot frame.
We sell our brands through quality domestic retailers and international distributors and retailers, as well as directly to our end-user consumers through our E-Commerce business and our retail stores. Independent third parties manufacture all of our products.
Our business has been impacted by, what we believe are, several important trends and we expect that it will continue to be impacted:
Sales of our products are highly seasonal and are sensitive to weather conditions, which are beyond our control.  Even though we are creating more year-round styles for our brands, the effect of favorable or unfavorable weather on sales can be significant.
Continuing uncertainty surrounding US and global economic conditions has adversely impacted businesses worldwide. Some of our customers have been, and more may be, adversely affected, which in turn has, and may continue to, adversely impact our financial results.

The sheepskin used in certain UGG products is in high demand and limited supply, and there have been significant fluctuations in the price of sheepskin as the demand from competitors for this material has changed. However, our sheepskin costs are expected to decrease for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 compared to the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2014 due to the increased use of UGGpureTM, real wool woven into a durable backing used as an alternative to table grade sheepskin, in select linings and foot beds.
The markets for casual, outdoor, and athletic footwear have grown significantly during the last decade. We believe this growth is a result of the trend toward casual dress in the workplace, increasingly active outdoor lifestyles, and a growing emphasis on comfort.
Consumers are more often seeking footwear designed to address a broader array of activities with the same quality, comfort, and high performance attributes they have come to expect from traditional athletic footwear.
Consumers have narrowed their footwear product breadth, focusing on brands with a rich heritage and authenticity as market category creators and leaders.
Consumers have become increasingly focused on luxury and comfort, seeking out products and brands that are fashionable while still comfortable.
There is an emerging sustainable lifestyle movement happening all around the world, and consumers are demanding that brands and companies become more environmentally responsible.
Consumers are following a recent trend of buy now, wear now. This trend entails the consumer waiting to purchase shoes until they will actually wear them, contrasted with a tendency in the past to purchase shoes they did not plan to wear until later.
By emphasizing our brands' images and our focus on comfort, performance and authenticity, we believe we can continue to maintain a loyal consumer following that is less susceptible to fluctuations caused by changing fashions and changes in consumer preferences. We have also responded to consumer focus on sustainability by establishing objectives, policies, and procedures to help us drive key sustainability initiatives around human rights, environmental sustainability, and community affairs.
We have experienced significant cost fluctuations, most over the past several years, notably with respect to sheepskin. We attempt to cover the full amount of our sheepskin purchases under fixed price contracts. We continually strive to contain our material costs through increasing the mix of non-sheepskin products, exploring new footwear materials and new production technologies, and utilizing lower cost production. Also, refer to Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk for further discussion of our commodity price risk.
Below is an overview of the various components of our business, including some key factors that affect each business and some of our strategies for growing each business.

The UGG brand is one of the most iconic and recognized brands in the global footwear industry and highlights our successful track record of building niche brands into lifestyle market leaders. With loyal consumers around the world the UGG brand has proven to be a highly resilient line of premium footwear, with an expanding product offering and a growing global audience that attracts women, men and children. UGG brand footwear continually earns media exposure from numerous outlets both organically and from strategic public relations efforts, including an increasing amount of exposure internationally. The UGG brand has invested in creating holistic, impactful integrated campaigns across paid, earned and owned media channels, including digital, social, out-of-home (OOH) and print, which are globally scalable, contributing to broader public awareness of the brand.
We believe the increased global media focus and demand for UGG products has been driven by the following:
High consumer brand loyalty, due to over 35 years of delivering quality and luxuriously comfortable UGG footwear;
Continued innovation of new product categories and styles, including those beyond footwear such as loungewear, handbags, cold-weather accessories and a new home offering;
A more robust footwear offering, including transitional collections to better bridge the gap between late summer and the start of the holiday season;

Expanded slipper category showing incremental growth with added styles for both women and men;
Growing Direct-to-Consumer platform and enhanced OmniChannel capabilities that enable us to increasingly engage existing and prospective consumers in a more connected environment to introduce our evolving product lines;
Product customization with our UGG by You program allows for a deeper connection with the brand and products;
Focus on mobile consumers with responsive site design providing shoppers access to the brand from their mobile device;
Year-round holistic paid advertising approach for women, men and kids in targeted high-end print, out-of-home, digital and social media;
Holiday focused advertising campaign to drive important seasonal sales;
Continued creation of targeted UGG for Men campaigns featuring brand ambassador Tom Brady;
Targeted E-Commerce based marketing to existing and prospective consumers through integrated outreach including email blasts, interactive site design and search engine optimization based content;
Continued partnership with high-end retailers such as Nordstrom;
Expanded product assortments from existing accounts;
Adoption by high-profile celebrities as a favored footwear brand;
Continued media attention that has enabled us to introduce the brand to consumers much faster than we would have otherwise been able to;
Increased exposure to the brand driven by our concept stores that showcase all of our product offerings;
Continued expansion of worldwide retail through new UGG stores; and
Continued geographic expansion through our UGG concept and outlet stores globally.
We believe the luxurious comfort of UGG products will continue to drive long-term consumer demand. Recognizing that there is a significant fashion element to UGG footwear and that footwear fashions fluctuate, our strategy seeks to prolong the longevity of the brand by offering a broader product line suitable for wear in a variety of climates and occasions and by presenting UGG as a global, premium lifestyle brand and limiting distribution to selected higher-end retailers. As part of this strategy, we have increased our product offering, including a growing transitional collections and spring line, an expanded men’s line, a fall line that consists of a range of luxurious collections for both genders, an expanded kids’ line, as well as home, handbags, cold weather accessories, and apparel. We have also recently expanded our marketing and promotional efforts, which we believe has contributed, and will continue to contribute, to our growth. We believe that the evolution of the UGG brand and our strategy of product diversification will also help decrease our reliance on sheepskin, which is in high demand and subject to price volatility. Nonetheless, we cannot assure investors that our efforts will continue to provide UGG brand growth.
Teva Brand Overview
For 30 years Teva has fueled the adventure lifestyle around the globe. Teva pioneered the sport sandal category in 1984 and today our mission remains steadfast: to enable spontaneous adventure with versatile, utility-centered footwear for active consumers. By designing simple, functional footwear, Teva is driving growth by extending our established global platforms in sandals and water-related products and by leveraging our authenticity with active lifestyle consumers.
We believe that Teva’s Originals collection is a key platform in driving market penetration for the brand. In the US, we will continue to bolster our leadership position in sandals and grow our market share through casual category extensions. Globally, we expect that the Originals collection will establish Teva’s beachhead across the warm-weather climates of Asia and Latin America, setting the foundation to support future core lifestyle collections within these regions.
Within the US, we expect that Teva will grow its position as a market leader within the sport sandal category. Growth opportunities within our current core channels of distribution - outdoor specialty, sporting goods, and family footwear retail chains - will be

16


pursued through deepening penetration with evolved and expanded product offerings. Teva plans to support its channel expansion beyond present distribution with focused investments in targeted, solution-driven marketing programs in order to attract new lifestyle consumers to the brand. However, we cannot assure investors that these efforts will be successful.
Sanuk Brand Overview
The Sanuk brand was founded 16 years ago, and from its origins in the Southern California surf culture, has grown into a global brand with an expanding consumer audience and growing presence in the casual canvas and sandals categories. The Sanuk brand’s use of unexpected materials and unconventional constructions combined with its fun and funky branding has contributed to the brand’s identity and growth since its inception, and led to successful products such as the Yoga MatTM sandal collection and the patented SIDEWALK SURFERS®.  We believe that the Sanuk brand provides substantial growth opportunities, especially within the casual canvas markets, supporting our strategic initiatives spanning new product launches, OmniChannel development and global expansion.  However, we cannot assure investors that our efforts to grow the brand will be successful.
Other Brands Overview
Our other brands consist of TSUBO, Ahnu, MOZO, and Hoka. Our other brands are all sold through most of our distribution channels, with the majority sold through wholesale channels.
TSUBO, meaning pressure point in Japanese, is marketed as high-end casual footwear for men and women. The brand is the synthesis of ergonomics and style, with a full line of sport and dress casuals, boots, sandals and heels constructed to provide consumers with contemporary footwear that incorporates style, function, and maximum comfort. We are positioning the TSUBO brand as the premium footwear solution for people in the city. We are continuing to create products to address consumers' unique needs of all-day comfort, innovative style, and superior quality.
Ahnu is an active lifestyle brand rooted with a yoga-inspired mindset, offering performance products that encourage a balanced life though fitness, healthy living, nature sufficiency and giving back.  Ahnu's products feature après-yoga styling, innovative trail and city hikers, and everyday casual shoes and sandals.  Ahnu’s go-anywhere approach blurs the lines between performance and fashion through modern color and material stories infused with patented Numentum® performance technology.
MOZO creates footwear for culinary professionals that redefines the industry dress code. Crafted for the most discerning of palates, MOZO shoes blend function, performance, and style. Each product is lightweight, durable, comfortable, and easy to clean. MOZO footwear is designed for casual, every day wear and built to challenge any culinary environment so you never have to compromise your personal style to perform at your very best. MOZO shoes are sold through food service equipment and supply distributors and online at Zappos.com and Amazon.com. Beginning later in calendar year (CY) 2014, we expect that MOZO products will be available at footwear retailers nationwide.
The Hoka brand focuses on designing shoes with a unique performance midsole geometry, oversized midsole volume and an active foot frame. Runners from around the world are experiencing the benefits of Hoka brand products. These shoes are used by marathon runners, and even ultra-marathon runners as well as every day runners to enjoy running.
We expect to leverage our design, marketing, and distribution capabilities to grow our other brands over the next several years, consistent with our mission to build niche brands into global market leaders. Nevertheless, we cannot assure investors that our efforts to grow these brands will be successful.
E-Commerce Overview
Our E-Commerce business, which sells all of our brands, allows us to build our relationship with the consumer and is a key component of our integrated OmniChannel strategy. E-Commerce enables us to meet the growing demand for our products, sell the products at retail prices, and provide significant incremental operating income. The E-Commerce business provides us an opportunity to communicate to the consumer with a consistent brand message that is in line with our brands' promises, drives awareness of key brand initiatives, and offers targeted information to specific consumer segments. Our websites also drive wholesale and distributor sales through brand awareness and directing consumers to retailers that carry our brands, including our own retail stores. In recent years, our E-Commerce business has had significant revenue growth, much of which occurred as the UGG brand gained popularity and as consumers continued to increase internet usage for footwear and other purchases.
Managing our E-Commerce business requires us to focus on the latest trends and techniques for web design and marketing, to generate internet traffic to our websites, to effectively convert website visits into orders, and to maximize average order sizes. We plan to continue to grow our E-Commerce business through improved website features and performance, increased marketing, expansion into more international markets, and utilization of mobile and tablet technology. Nevertheless, we cannot assure investors that revenue from our E-Commerce business will continue to grow.
Retail Stores Overview

17


Our retail stores are predominantly UGG concept stores and UGG outlet stores. In 2013 we expanded our fleet and opened our first Sanuk (two concept, one outlet) stores. Our retail stores enable us to directly impact our customers' experience, meet the growing demand for these products, sell the products at retail prices and generate strong annual operating income. In addition, our UGG concept stores allow us to showcase our entire product line including footwear, accessories, handbags, home, outerwear, lounge and retail exclusive items; whereas, a wholesale account may not represent all of these categories. Through our outlet stores, we sell some of our discontinued styles from prior seasons, as well as full price in-line product, and products made specifically for the outlet stores. Within our OmniChannel strategy, we believe that consumers try on product in our retail stores, perform further online research and order product online and, conversely, E-Commerce fuels our retail locations. As a result, we believe that our stores and websites are interconnected in a way that will allow us to view them on a combined basis. Further, our stores will allow the consumer to buy through our E-Commerce channel using internet capable devices in our stores.
As of June 30, 2014, we had a total of 126 retail stores worldwide. These stores are company-owned and operated. During the remainder of fiscal year 2015, we plan to open additional retail stores worldwide. 

Seasonality
 
Our business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of UGG brand net sales occurring in the quarters ending September 30 and December 31 and the highest percentage of Teva and Sanuk brand net sales occurring in the quarters ending March 31 and June 30 of each year.  Our other brands do not have a significant seasonal impact.

In February 2014, our Board of Directors approved a change in our fiscal year end from December 31 to March 31. The change is intended to better align our planning, financial and reporting functions with the seasonality of our business.

The following table summarizes our quarterly net sales and income (loss) from operations:

With the large growth in the UGG brand over the past several years, net sales in the quarters ending September 30 and December 31 have exceeded net sales in the quarters ending March 31 and June 30.  We currently expect this trend to continue.  Nonetheless, actual results could differ materially depending upon consumer preferences, availability of product, competition, and our wholesale and distributor customers continuing to carry and promote our various product lines, among other risks and uncertainties.

In order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed, excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations, we provide certain financial information on a “constant currency basis,” which is in addition to the actual financial information presented. In order to calculate our constant currency information, we translate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period. However, constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to US dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. 
The increase in overall net sales was primarily due to an increase in our UGG brand sales through our wholesale channel and retail stores as well as an increase in our Teva brand wholesale sales. Other increases in net sales include Sanuk brands sales through the wholesale channel, other brand sales through the wholesale channel and UGG brand sales through our E-Commerce sites. On a constant currency basis, net sales increased by 23.8% to approximately $210,000. We experienced an increase in the number of pairs sold across all segments, primarily in the Sanuk brand wholesale, Teva brand wholesale, UGG brand wholesale and retail stores segments.  This resulted in an increase in the overall volume of footwear sold for all brands of 28.3% to approximately 5.9 million pairs sold for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from approximately 4.6 million pairs for the three months ended June 30, 2013
 

20


Wholesale net sales of our UGG brand increased primarily due to an increase in the volume of pairs sold, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted-average wholesale selling price.  The decrease in average selling price was primarily due to a shift in the proportion of distributor sales to the sum of wholesale and distributor sales as distributor sales carry lower price points.  For UGG wholesale net sales, the increase in volume had an impact of approximately $15,000 and the decrease in average selling price had an impact of approximately $3,000. 
 
Wholesale net sales of our Teva brand increased primarily due to an increase in volume of pairs sold, partially offset by a slight decrease in the weighted-average wholesale selling price per pair.  The slight decrease in average selling price was primarily due to a shift in product mix. For Teva wholesale net sales, the increase in volume had an impact of approximately $7,000 and the decrease in average selling price had no material impact.
 
Wholesale net sales of our Sanuk brand increased primarily due to an increase in the volume of pairs sold, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted-average wholesale selling price per pair. The decrease in average selling price was primarily due to a shift in product mix.  For Sanuk wholesale net sales, the increase in volume of pairs sold had an impact of approximately $7,000 and the decrease in average selling price had an impact of approximately $2,000.
 
Wholesale net sales of our other brands increased primarily due to an increase in the volume of pairs sold as well as an increase in the weighted-average wholesale selling price per pair. The increase in the average selling price was primarily due to a shift in the proportion of Hoka brand sales to the sum of other brands sales as the Hoka brand carries higher average price points. For other brand wholesale net sales, the increase in volume of pairs sold had an impact of approximately $3,000 and the increase in average selling price had an impact of approximately $1,000.
 
Net sales of our E-Commerce business increased primarily due to an increase in the number of pairs sold as well as a slight increase in the weighted-average selling price per pair. For E-Commerce net sales, the increase in volume had an impact of approximately $4,000 and the change in average selling price had no material impact on sales.
  
Net sales of our retail store business, which are primarily UGG brand sales, increased largely due to the addition of 37 new stores opened since June 30, 2013. Over half of these new stores were in Asia, primarily in China and Japan, with the remaining new stores in the US and Europe. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on our retail stores sales. Same store sales for the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2014 decreased by 2.8% compared to the same period in 2013.  For retail same store sales, we experienced a decrease in weighted-average selling price of approximately $4,000 partially offset by an increase in volume of approximately $3,000. As we continue to increase the number of retail stores, each new store will have less significant impact on our growth rate.
 
International sales, which are included in the segment sales above, for all of our products combined increased by 32.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. On a constant currency basis, international sales increased by 30.5% to approximately $78,000. International sales represented 37.5% and 35.3% of worldwide net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The increase in international sales as a percentage of worldwide net sales was primarily due to the continued growth in our UGG brand's international distributor sales of approximately $10,000 and retail business of approximately $5,000.

Foreign loss before income taxes was $22,468 and $12,898 and worldwide loss before income taxes was $50,770 and $43,052 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Foreign loss before income taxes represented 44.3% and 30.0% of worldwide loss before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase in foreign loss before income taxes as a percentage of worldwide loss before income taxes was primarily due to an increase in foreign operating expenses of approximately $16,000, which are primarily related to the expansion of our international retail and E-Commerce operations.

We expect that our foreign income before income taxes will continue to fluctuate from year to year based on several factors, including our expansion initiatives. In addition, we believe that the continued evolution and geographic scope of the UGG brand, our continuing strategy of enhancing product diversification, and our expected growth in our international retail and E-Commerce business, will result in improved foreign operating results in future years.

Gross Profit.  As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was comparable to the same period in 2013 and was negatively impacted by an increase in distributor sales as a percentage of combined wholesale and distributor sales, which carry lower margins than our wholesale sales.  Our gross margins fluctuate based on several factors, and we expect our gross margin to increase for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to reduced sheepskin prices, the increased use of UGGpure and an increase in the proportion of E-Commerce and retail stores sales, which generally carry higher margins than wholesale sales.

21


 
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses.  The change in SG&A expenses was primarily due to:

increased retail costs of approximately $11,000, largely related to 37 new retail stores that were not open as of June 30, 2013 and related corporate infrastructure;
increased expenses of approximately $4,000 for marketing and promotions, largely related to the Hoka and UGG brands;
increased information technology costs of approximately $3,000 related to accelerating the expense for certain assets that will no longer be used;
increased E-Commerce costs of approximately $3,000, largely related to the international expansion of our E-Commerce business and increased expenses related to marketing and advertising.

Loss from operations increased due to increased SG&A expenses, as well as the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.  On a constant currency basis, loss from operations increased by 15.3% to approximately $49,000.
 
The increase in income from operations of UGG brand wholesale was the result of a 3.6 percentage point increase in gross margin primarily due to the impact of decreased closeout sales, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses of approximately $2,000.
 
The increase in income from operations of Teva brand wholesale was primarily the result of the increase in net sales as well as a decrease in operating expenses of approximately $1,000. 

The increase in income from operations of Sanuk brand wholesale was primarily the result of the increase in net sales offset by a 5.1 percentage point decrease in gross margin as well as increased operating expenses of approximately $500. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix as well as an increased impact from closeout sales. 
 
The increase in loss from operations of our other brands wholesale was primarily the result of an increase in operating expenses of approximately $3,000, partially offset by the increase in net sales as well as a 2.9 percentage point increase in gross margin. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to a shift in sales mix.
 
The decrease in income from operations of our E-Commerce business was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses of approximately $3,000, partially offset by the increase in net sales. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the international expansion of our E-Commerce business and increased expenses related to marketing and advertising.
 
Loss from operations of our retail store business, which primarily relates to the UGG brand, increased primarily due to increased operating expenses of approximately $11,000 largely related to our new store openings and related corporate infrastructure.  These results were partially offset by increased gross profit of approximately $5,000.
 

22


The increase in unallocated overhead costs was primarily due to increased information technology costs, recruitment fees and depreciation on our corporate headquarters.

Other Expense, Net.  Other expense, net was comparable to the prior year period.
 
Income Taxes. Income taxes for the interim periods are computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management and can vary from quarter to quarter.

Unremitted earnings of non-US subsidiaries are expected to be reinvested outside of the US indefinitely.  Such earnings would become taxable upon the sale or liquidation of these subsidiaries or upon the remittance of dividends.  As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $43,000 of cash and cash equivalents outside the US that would be subject to additional income taxes if it were to be repatriated. We anticipate our effective tax rate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 to be lower than the full year rate of 29.1% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013
 
Net Loss.  We incurred an increase in net loss as a result of the items discussed above.
 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements other than our guarantee contracts. See “Contractual Obligations” below.
 

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We finance our working capital and operating needs using a combination of our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash generated from operations, and, as needed, the credit available under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.  In an economic recession or under other adverse economic conditions, our cash generated from operations may decline, and we may be unable to realize a return on our cash and cash equivalents, secure additional credit on favorable terms, or renew or access our existing credit.  These factors may impact our working capital reserves and have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our cash flow cycle includes the purchase of or deposits for raw materials, the purchase of inventories, the subsequent sale of the inventories, and the eventual collection of the resulting accounts receivables.  As a result, our working capital requirements begin when we purchase, or make deposits on, raw materials and inventories and continue until we ultimately collect the resulting receivables.  The seasonality of our UGG brand business requires us to build fall and winter inventories in the quarters ending June 30 and September 30 to support sales for the UGG brand’s major selling seasons, which historically occur during the quarters ending September 30 and December 31; whereas, the Teva and Sanuk brands build inventory levels beginning in the quarters ending December 31 and March 31 in anticipation of the spring selling season that occurs in the quarters ending March 31 and June 30.  Given the seasonality of our UGG, Teva, and Sanuk brands, our working capital requirements fluctuate significantly throughout the year.  The cash required to fund these working capital fluctuations has been provided using our internal cash flows and short-term borrowings.  As needed, we borrow funds under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

Cash from Operating Activities.  Net cash used in operating activities increased primarily due to an increase in inventories and trade accounts receivable. The increase in inventory was primarily related to expected future sales and the timing of our inventory purchases and payments. The change in trade accounts receivable was primarily related to increased wholesale sales in the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013.  This increase in cash used in operating activities was partially offset by an increase in trade accounts payable, primarily due to the timing of inventory purchases and payments. Net working capital decreased as of June 30, 2014 from March 31, 2014, primarily as a result of increased trade accounts payable, decreased cash and cash equivalents and increased income taxes receivable, partially offset by higher inventories and higher trade accounts receivable. Changes in working capital are due to the items discussed above, as well as our normal seasonality and timing of cash receipts and cash payments.

Wholesale accounts receivable turnover increased to 7.3 times in the twelve months ended June 30, 2014 from 6.6 times for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to lower average accounts receivable balances, as well as increased wholesale sales. The lower average accounts receivable balances were primarily due to improved cash collections.  

Inventory turnover increased to 2.7 times for the twelve months ended June 30, 2014 compared to 2.3 times for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to increased sales as well as lower average inventory levels during the twelve months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the twelve months ended June 30, 2013.  The lower average inventory balances were primarily attributed to an improvement in inventory management and a decrease in sheepskin costs.
 
Cash from Investing Activities.  Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2014 resulted from the purchases of property and equipment. The capital expenditures were primarily related to purchases of computer hardware and software, the build out of retail stores, and infrastructure improvements to support our OmniChannel transformation and international expansion. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, net cash used in investing activities resulted primarily from the purchases of property and equipment. The capital expenditures included the build out of new retail stores and our corporate facilities, and purchases of computer hardware and software.


24


As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $21,000 of material commitments for future capital expenditures primarily related to equipment costs of our new distribution center. We estimate that the capital expenditures for the next twelve months including the aforementioned commitments will be approximately $100,000. We anticipate these expenditures will primarily include information technology and related infrastructure improvements to support our OmniChannel transformation and international expansion, the build out of retail stores and equipment costs of our new distribution center. The actual amount of capital expenditures for the year may differ from this estimate, largely depending on the timing of new store openings or any unforeseen needs to replace existing assets and the timing of other expenditures.

Cash from Financing Activities.  For the three months ended June 30, 2014, net cash used in financing activities was comprised primarily of repayments of short-term borrowings as well as contingent consideration paid related to our Hoka acquisition.  For the three months ended June 30, 2013, net cash provided by financing activities was comprised primarily of short-term borrowings, partially offset by repayments of short-term borrowings as well as cash used to pay for shares withheld for taxes from employee stock unit vestings.
 
In June 2012, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $200,000 of our common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors.  The program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the program may be suspended at any time at our discretion.  There was no stock repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2014.  As of June 30, 2014, we have repurchased approximately 2,765,000 shares under this program, for approximately $120,700, or an average price of $43.66, leaving the remaining approved amount at approximately $79,300.
 
In August 2011, we entered into a Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association as the administrative agent, Comerica Bank and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto.  In August 2012 we amended and restated in its entirety the Credit Agreement (Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).  The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is a five-year, $400,000 secured revolving credit facility.  In June 2013 we amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to permit additional borrowings in China of $12,500 and revised certain financial covenants including an increase in the maximum amount permitted to be spent on the headquarters building from $75,000 to $80,000.  In August 2013 one of our subsidiaries entered into a new credit agreement in China (China Credit Facility).  Refer to note 4 and to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and China Credit Facility.  At June 30, 2014, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $100, leaving an unused balance of approximately $399,900 under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.  At June 30, 2014, we had approximately $3,200 of outstanding borrowings under the China Credit Facility. Subsequent to June 30, 2014, we borrowed approximately $4,900 resulting in a total outstanding balance of approximately $8,100 under the China Credit Agreement through August 11, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenants and we remain in compliance as of the date of this report.

Subsequent to June 30, 2014, we obtained a mortgage on its corporate headquarters property for approximately $33,900.  The mortgage has a fixed interest rate of 4.928%.  The loan is amortized for a 30 year period.  The loan will mature and have a balloon payment due in 15 years.  The loan will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The mortgage contains financial covenants which include:  the asset coverage ratio must be greater than 1.10 to 1.00; the sum of the consolidated annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and annual rental expense, divided by the sum of the annual interest expense and the annual rental expense must be greater than 2.25 to 1.00; and other customary limitations.

Contractual Obligations.  There were no material changes to the contractual obligations or contingent consideration liabilities reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014, other than those which occurred in the ordinary course of business.
 
We believe that internally generated funds, the available borrowings under our existing credit facilities, mortgage proceeds, and our cash and cash equivalents will provide sufficient liquidity to enable us to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.  However, risks and uncertainties that could impact our ability to maintain our cash position include our growth rate, the continued strength of our brands, our ability to respond to changes in consumer preferences, the impact of commodity costs including for sheepskin, our ability to collect our receivables in a timely manner, our ability to effectively manage our inventories, our ability to generate returns on our acquisitions of businesses, and market volatility, among others.  See Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” for a discussion of additional factors that may affect our working capital position.  Furthermore, we may require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue.  If these sources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell debt securities or additional equity securities or to obtain a new credit agreement or draw on our existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.  The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders.  Additional indebtedness could further result in incurring additional debt service obligations and could

25


result in additional operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations.  In addition, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.  Although there are no other material present understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to the acquisition of any other businesses, we may evaluate acquisitions of other businesses or brands.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
For a discussion of accounting policies that we consider critical to our business operations and understanding of our results of operations, and that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, see Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” contained in the Annual Report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in US GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us on April 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Commodity Price Risk. We purchase certain materials that are affected by commodity prices, the most significant of which is sheepskin.  The supply of sheepskin used in certain UGG products is in high demand and there are a limited number of suppliers able to meet our expectations for the quantity and quality of sheepskin required.  There have been significant changes in the price of sheepskin in recent years as the demand from our competitors, as well as the demand from our customers, for this commodity has changed.  Other significant factors affecting the price of sheepskin include weather patterns, harvesting decisions, global economic conditions, and additional factors which are not considered predictable or within our control.  We use purchasing contracts, pricing arrangements, and refundable deposits to attempt to reduce the impact of price volatility as an alternative to hedging commodity prices.  The purchasing contracts and pricing arrangements we use may result in unconditional purchase obligations, which are not reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.  In the event of significant commodity cost increases, we will likely not be able to adjust our selling prices sufficiently to mitigate the impact on our margins.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.  We face market risk to the extent that changes in foreign currency exchange rates affect our foreign assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We hedge certain foreign currency forecasted transactions and exposures from existing assets and liabilities. Other than as a result of an increasing amount of sales, expenses, and financial positions denominated in foreign currencies, as discussed above, we do not believe that there has been a material change in the nature of our primary market risk exposures, including with respect to the categories of market risk to which we are exposed or the particular markets that present the primary risk of loss. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we do not know of or expect there to be any material change in the general nature of our primary market risk exposure in the near term.
 
We currently utilize forward contracts and other derivative instruments to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate, for a portion of the amounts we expect to purchase and sell in foreign currencies. As our international operations grow and we increase purchases and sales in foreign currencies, we will continue to evaluate our hedging policy and may utilize additional derivative instruments, as needed, to hedge our foreign currency exposures. We do not use foreign currency contracts for trading purposes. As of June 30, 2014, our hedging contracts had notional amounts totaling approximately $98,000.  These contracts were held by five counterparties and were expected to mature over the next 6 months. Based upon sensitivity analysis as of June 30, 2014, a 10.0% change in foreign exchange rates would cause the fair value of our financial instruments to increase or decrease by approximately $7,000. Subsequent to June 30, 2014, we entered into a hedging contract with a notional amount totaling approximately $10,000.
 
Although the majority of our sales and inventory purchases are denominated in US currency, these sales and inventory purchases may be impacted by fluctuations in the exchange rates between the US dollar and the local currencies in the international markets where our products are sold and manufactured. Our foreign currency exposure is generated primarily from our Asian and European operations.  Approximately $40,000, or 19.0%, of our total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were denominated in foreign currencies.  As we hold more cash and other monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies, we are exposed to financial statement transaction gains and losses as a result of remeasuring the financial positions held in foreign currencies into

26


US dollars.  We remeasure monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into US dollars using the exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period.  In addition, certain of our foreign subsidiaries’ local currency is their designated functional currency, and we translate those subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities into US dollars using the exchange rates at of the end of the reporting period, which results in financial statement translation gains and losses in other comprehensive income.  Changes in foreign exchange rates affect our reported profits and can distort comparisons from year to year.  In addition, if the US dollar strengthens, it may result in increased pricing pressure on our foreign distributors, and retailers, which may have a negative impact on our net sales and gross margins.
 
Interest Rate Risk.  Our market risk exposure with respect to financial instruments is tied to changes in the prime rate in the US and changes in London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for interest on outstanding borrowings at rates tied to the prime rate or, at our election, tied to LIBOR. At June 30, 2014, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. At June 30, 2014, we had approximately $3,200 of outstanding borrowings under the China Credit Facility. Interest is based on the People’s Bank of China rate, which was 6.0% at June 30, 2014. Subsequent to June 30, 2014, we borrowed approximately $4,900 resulting in a total outstanding balance of approximately $8,100 under the China Credit Agreement through August 11, 2014.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, among other processes, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
 
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2014 pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.  Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Part II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.                       Legal Proceedings
 
On May 31, 2012, a purported shareholder class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against the Company and certain of its officers. On August 1, 2012, a similar purported shareholder class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against the Company and certain of its officers.  These actions were purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s publicly traded securities between October 27, 2011 and April 26, 2012 and alleged violations of the federal securities laws. Both cases were dismissed with prejudice, and no appeal was taken from either dismissal.
 

27


On July 17, 2012 and July 26, 2012, two purported shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the California Superior Court for the County of Santa Barbara against our Board of Directors and several of our officers. The Company was named as nominal defendant. Plaintiffs in the state derivative actions allege, among other things, that the Board allowed certain officers to make allegedly false and misleading statements. The complaints include claims for breach of fiduciary duties, mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, insider trading, unjust enrichment, and violations of the California Corporations Code. The complaints seek compensatory damages, disgorgement, and other relief.  The actions were consolidated on September 13, 2012, and the Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on November 20, 2012. On March 21, 2013, the Company’s demurrer to the consolidated complaint was sustained with leave to amend.  The Plaintiffs did not timely amend the consolidated complaint and a final judgment and order of dismissal with prejudice was entered on May 6, 2013.  Plaintiffs filed an appeal on May 22, 2013, and the appellate court is scheduled to hear oral arguments by the parties on August 13, 2014.
 
As part of our policing program for our intellectual property rights, from time to time, we file lawsuits in the US and abroad alleging acts of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, patent infringement, trade dress infringement, trademark dilution, and state or foreign law claims.  At any given point in time, we may have a number of such actions pending.  These actions often result in seizure of counterfeit merchandise or out of court settlements with defendants or both.  From time to time, we are subject to claims where plaintiffs will raise, or defendants will raise, either as affirmative defenses or as counterclaims, the invalidity or unenforceability of certain of our intellectual properties, including our trademark registration for UGG.  We also are aware of many instances throughout the world in which a third party is using our UGG trademarks within its internet domain name, and we have discovered and are investigating several manufacturers and distributors of counterfeit Teva, UGG, and Sanuk products.

Although we are subject to other routine legal proceedings from time to time in the ordinary course of business, including employment, intellectual property and product liability claims, we believe that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on our business or consolidated financial statements.

Item 1A.              Risk Factors
 
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014.

Item 2.                       Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers
 
In June 2012, the Company approved a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $200,000 of the Company’s common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors.  The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the program may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.  There was no stock repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we repurchased approximately 2,765,000 shares under this program, for approximately $120,700, or an average price of $43.66 per share, leaving the remaining approved amount at approximately $79,300.  The purchases were funded from available working capital.

US federal jurisdiction and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions.&#160; When tax returns are filed, some positions taken are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which the Company believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">50%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> likely of being realized upon settlement.
