We do not undertake any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of the receipt of new information, future events or otherwise.




PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION


ITEM 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheets of Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation as of October 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004, the related condensed consolidated income statements for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended October 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004 and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the thirty-nine week periods ended October 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.


We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.


Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation as of January 30, 2005, and the related consolidated income statement, statement of changes in stockholders' equity, and statement of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated March 21, 2005, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 30, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

PHILLIPS-VAN HEUSEN CORPORATION


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(Dollar and share amounts in thousands, except per share data)


1.  GENERAL


The Company's fiscal years are based on the 52-53 week period ending on the Sunday closest to February 1, and are designated by the calendar year in which the fiscal year commences.


The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not contain all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. Reference should be made to the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2005.


The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates.


The results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year due, in part, to seasonal factors. The data contained in these financial statements are unaudited and are subject to year-end adjustments. However, in the opinion of management, all known adjustments (which consist only of normal recurring accruals) have been made to present fairly the consolidated operating results for the unaudited periods.


Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the prior year periods to present that information on a basis consistent with the current year.


2.  INVENTORIES


Inventories related to the Company's wholesale operations, comprised principally of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventories related to the Company's retail operations, comprised entirely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of average cost or market using the retail inventory method. Under the retail inventory method, the valuation of inventories at cost is calculated by applying a cost-to-retail ratio to the retail value of inventories. Permanent and point of sale markdowns, when recorded, reduce both the retail and cost components of inventory on hand so as to maintain the already established cost-to-retail relationship. Cost for certain apparel inventories is determined using the last-in, first-out method (LIFO). Cost for all other inventories is determined using the first-in, first-out method (FIFO). At October 30, 2005, January 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004, no LIFO reserves were recorded because LIFO cost approximated FIFO cost.


The final determination of cost of sales and inventories under the LIFO method is made at the end of each fiscal year based on inventory cost and quantities on hand. Interim LIFO determinations are based on management's estimates of expected inflationary effects on inventory costs. Such estimates are subject to revision at the end of each quarter. Since estimates of future inflationary effects are subject to external factors, interim financial results are subject to year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.


3.  SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK


In connection with the Company's acquisition of Calvin Klein, Inc. and certain affiliated companies in February 2003, the Company issued $250,000 of Series B convertible preferred stock. The Series B convertible preferred stock has a conversion price of $14.00 per share and a dividend rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly, in cash. If the Company elects not to pay a cash dividend for any quarter, then the Series B convertible preferred stock will be treated for purposes of the payment of future dividends and upon conversion, redemption or liquidation as if an in-kind dividend had been paid.



5




During the second quarter of 2005, the holders of the Series B convertible preferred stock voluntarily converted an aggregate of $102,820 of the Series B convertible preferred stock, or 39% of the liquidation value of the preferred stock prior to conversion, into 7,344 shares of the Company's common stock. In connection with the conversion of such Series B convertible preferred stock by the preferred stockholders and their subsequent sale of the 7,344 shares of common stock received upon conversion, the Company made an inducement payment to the preferred stockholders in the amount of $1.75 per share of common stock, or an aggregate of $12,853. The inducement payment was based on the net present value of the dividends that the Company would have been obligated to pay the preferred stockholders through the earliest date on which it is estimated that the Company would have the right to convert the Series B convertible preferred stock, net of the present value o f the dividends payable over the same period on the shares of common stock into which the Series B convertible preferred stock was convertible. In addition, the Company incurred certain costs, totaling $1,352, specifically related to the registered common stock offering.


As of October 30, 2005, the liquidation preference of the remaining outstanding Series B convertible preferred stock was $161,926. Conversion of the remaining outstanding Series B convertible preferred stock may occur any time at the option of the preferred stockholders. Conversion may occur at the Company's option after February 12, 2007, if the market value of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds 225% of the conversion price then in effect for 60 consecutive days.


The preferred stockholders can require the Company to redeem for cash all of the then-outstanding shares of Series B convertible preferred stock on or after November 1, 2013. On all matters put to a vote of holders of common stock, each holder of shares of the Series B convertible preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares that would be issued upon conversion of the Series B convertible preferred stock into common stock.


Prior to the conversion of a portion of the Series B convertible preferred stock during the second quarter of 2005, the preferred stockholders had the right to elect separately as a class three directors and to have one of their directors serve on the audit, compensation, nominating and executive committees of the Company's board, subject to applicable law, rule and regulation; current regulation precludes service on the audit committee. In connection with the conversion, the remaining preferred stockholders agreed to reduce their right to elect directors of the Company from three directors to two directors. Only one such director is currently elected. If the preferred stockholders do not elect a second director by December 31, 2005, they have agreed to further reduce this right to one director.

During the second quarter of 2005, the holders of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock completed a voluntary conversion of a portion of such stock into shares of common stock. Such shares of common stock were subsequently sold in a registered offering by the holders. In connection with these transactions, the Company made an inducement payment to the preferred stockholders of $1.75 for each share of common stock sold, or an aggregate of $12,853, and incurred certain costs, totaling $1,352, specifically related to the registered common stock offering. As set forth in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Topic D-42, "The Effect on the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock," when convertible preferred stock is converted pursuant to an inducement offer, the excess of the fair value of consideration transferred in the transaction to the holders of the convertible preferred stock over the fair value of the securities issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms should be subtracted from net income to arrive at net income available to common stockholders in the calculation of earnings per share.  As such, the inducement payment and offering costs paid by the Company in connection with the conversion and subsequent registered common stock offering resulted in a reduction of net income available to common stockholders for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005.


Potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share are as follows:

As set forth in EITF Topic D-53, "Computation of Earnings per Share for a Period That Includes a Redemption or an Induced Conversion of a Portion of a Class of Preferred Stock," when a company effects an induced conversion of only a portion of a class of the company's then-outstanding preferred stock, any excess consideration should be attributed to the converted shares, and the converted shares should be considered separately from the shares that were not converted for purposes of applying the "if-converted" method of calculating diluted net income per common share from the beginning of the period. As such, for purposes of the Company's computation of diluted net income per common share for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005, the portion of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock that was converted was considered separately from the portion of the Company's Series B conve rtible preferred stock that was not converted. The inducement payment and offering costs paid by the Company in connection with the conversion and subsequent registered common stock offering were attributed to the portion of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock that was converted. As a result, conversion of the portion of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock that was converted into 4,463 weighted average common shares outstanding for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005 was not assumed because the resulting impact on the calculation of diluted net income per common share would have been antidilutive. Additionally, conversion of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock into 18,910 shares of common stock for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2004 was not assumed because the resulting impact on the calculation of diluted net income per common share would have been antidilutive.

The income tax effect related to foreign currency translation adjustments was a benefit of $62 and an expense of $8 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004, respectively.


6.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


The Company accounts for its stock options under the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and complies with the disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as amended by FASB Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure." Under APB Opinion No. 25, the Company does not recognize compensation expense because the exercise price of the Company's stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant.


The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per common share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123:

As discussed further in Note 12, "New Accounting Standards," the Company will adopt the requirements of FASB Statement No. 123R beginning in the first quarter of 2006.


7.  RETIREMENT AND BENEFIT PLANS


The Company has noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all U.S. employees meeting certain age and service requirements. For those vested (after five years of service), the plans provide monthly benefits upon retirement based on career compensation and years of credited service. It is the Company's policy to fund pension cost in an amount consistent with Federal law and regulations.


The Company and its domestic subsidiaries also provide certain postretirement health care and life insurance benefits. Retirees contribute to the cost of this plan, which is unfunded. During 2002, the postretirement plan was amended to eliminate benefits for active participants who, as of January 1, 2003, had not attained age 55 and 10 years of service.


Net benefit cost was recognized as follows:

The Company currently expects to make a payment of between $7,000 and $8,000 from its unfunded supplemental pension plan to its former chief executive officer in the fourth quarter of 2005 in connection with his retirement. Such payment is expected to result in a pre-tax settlement charge of approximately $4,000 in the fourth quarter of 2005. The Company is not required to make any contributions to its qualified pension plans in 2005.  However, based on the Company's cash position later in the year, the Company may elect to make a voluntary contribution in the fourth quarter of 2005.

The Company used the net proceeds of the issuance of the 7 1/4% senior unsecured notes and available cash to purchase and redeem its 9 1/2% senior subordinated notes due 2008. The total cash paid for purchase and redemption, including a prepayment penalty, was $157,293.


10.  NONCASH INVESTING AND FINANCING TRANSACTIONS


Omitted from the Financing Activities section of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005 was a decrease in Series B convertible preferred stock of $102,820, an increase in common stock of $7,302, an increase in additional capital of $94,870 and a decrease in treasury stock of $648 associated with the conversion of a portion of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock. Please see Note 3, "Series B Convertible Preferred Stock."


11.  SEGMENT DATA


The Company manages and analyzes its operating results by two business segments: (i) Apparel and Related Products segment and (ii) Calvin Klein Licensing segment. In identifying its reportable segments, the Company evaluated its operating divisions and product offerings. The Company aggregates the results of its dress shirt and sportswear divisions into the Apparel and Related Products segment. This segment derives revenues from marketing dress shirts and sportswear and, to a lesser extent, footwear and other accessories, principally under the brand names Van Heusen, IZOD, Geoffrey Beene, Arrow, Kenneth Cole New York, Kenneth Cole Reaction, Bass/G.H. Bass &


10



Co., Calvin Klein, Calvin Klein Collection, BCBG Max Azria, BCBG Attitude, MICHAEL Michael Kors, Chaps, Sean John and Donald J. Trump Signature Collection. The Calvin Klein Licensing segment derives revenues from licensing and similar arrangements worldwide of the Calvin Klein Collection, Calvin Klein and ck Calvin Klein brands for a broad array of products.


In the second quarter of 2005, the Company re-evaluated the way it aggregates its operating divisions into its reportable segments under FASB Statement No. 131. As a result, the Company's Calvin Klein Collection stores are now included in the Apparel and Related Products segment. Previously, such stores were included in the Calvin Klein Licensing segment. The Company reclassified prior year segment data for this change. This change did not result in a material change in identifiable assets for either segment.

12.  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS


In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment," which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25 and FASB Statement No. 148. FASB Statement No. 123R requires all share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. FASB Statement No. 123R is effective for the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. As such, the Company will adopt the requirements of FASB Statement No. 123R beginning in the first quarter of 2006. The Company estimates that adoption of FASB Statement No. 123R in 2006 will decrease the Company's full year 2006 net income per diluted common share by approximately $0.10 to $0.11, dependent, in part, on the timing and amount of any future stock option grants.


In October 2005, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 13-1, "Accounting for Rental Costs Incurred During a Construction Period." FASB Staff Position No. FAS 13-1 requires that rental costs associated with operating leases that are incurred during a construction period be recognized as rental expense and allocated over the lease term in accordance with the guidance in FASB Statement No. 13, "Accounting for Leases," and FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-3, "Accounting for Operating Leases with Scheduled Rent Increases." The Company currently accounts for such rental costs under the capitalization method. Under the capitalization method, rental costs incurred during the construction period are capitalized as leasehold improvements. FASB Staff Position No. FAS 13-1 is effective with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. As such, the Company will adopt the provisions of FASB Staff Position No. FAS 13 - -1 in the first quarter of 2006. The Company does not expect this to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or future results of operations.


13.  OTHER COMMENTS


The Company has outstanding guarantee contracts which guarantee the payment of certain purchases made by two of the Company's suppliers from specific raw material vendors.  These contracts guarantee maximum amounts of $2,500 and $500 and expire on January 31, 2006 and January 31, 2007, respectively.


During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2005, the Company issued 2,477 shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options.


On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the "AJCA") was signed by President Bush. The AJCA provides for a special one-time deduction of 85% of certain foreign earnings that are repatriated in either an enterprise's last tax year that began before the enactment date, or the first tax year that begins during the one-year period beginning on the date of enactment. The repatriation provision did not have any impact on the Company's financial statements.


On August 30, 2005, Federated Department Stores, Inc. completed its merger with The May Department Stores Company. The combined entity would have accounted for 12.5% of the Company's revenues in 2004.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


OVERVIEW


The following discussion and analysis is intended to help you understand us, our operations and our financial performance.  It should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, which are included elsewhere in this report.


We are one of the largest apparel companies in the world, with a heritage dating back over 120 years.  Our portfolio of brands includes our own brands, Van Heusen, Calvin Klein, IZOD, Arrow, G.H. Bass & Co. and Bass, and our licensed brands, Geoffrey Beene, Kenneth Cole New York, Kenneth Cole Reaction, BCBG Max Azria, BCBG Attitude, MICHAEL Michael Kors, Sean John, Chaps and Donald J. Trump Signature Collection. Importantly, our acquisition of Calvin Klein, Inc. and certain related companies in February 2003 provided us with an additional platform for growth in revenues and profitability. This acquisition, and to a lesser extent, our acquisition of the Arrow tradename in December 2004, also further diversified our business model by providing growth opportunities from strong and highly profitable licensing streams which do not require capital investments.


Our historical strategy has been to manage and market a portfolio of nationally recognized brands across multiple product categories, through multiple channels of distribution and at multiple price points. This strategy was enhanced by the Calvin Klein acquisition, which provided us with one of the most famous designer names in the world. Through that transaction, we acquired a solid base of licensed businesses offering a broad range of products globally under multiple Calvin Klein brands in a range of price points. Equally important, we also have a significant opportunity to broaden the reach of the Calvin Klein brands through growth of existing businesses and entry into new businesses, both directly by us and through licensees. This additional diversification, in terms of product, positioning, business model and opportunity has not only enhanced our growth prospects, but has also further moderated our risk to a downturn in any one of our businesses.


We continue to leverage our sourcing, warehousing, distribution and information technology expertise across all of our brands, which creates both operational efficiencies, as well as the ability to respond rapidly to changes in sales trends and customer demands.  


OPERATIONS OVERVIEW


We generate net sales from (i) the wholesale distribution of men's dress shirts and sportswear, principally under the brand names Van Heusen, IZOD, Geoffrey Beene, Arrow, Kenneth Cole New York, Kenneth Cole Reaction, Calvin Klein, BCBG Max Azria, BCBG Attitude, MICHAEL Michael Kors, Chaps, Sean John and Donald J. Trump Signature Collection, which we introduced during the first quarter of 2005, as well as some private labels, and (ii) the sale, through approximately 700 company-operated retail stores, of apparel, footwear and accessories under the brand names Van Heusen, IZOD, Geoffrey Beene, Bass and Calvin Klein. Our stores principally operate in an outlet format, except for three Calvin Klein image stores located in New York City, Dallas and Paris selling men's and women's high-end collection apparel and accessories, soft home furnishings and tableware. The Dallas store is currentl y expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2005.


We generate royalty and other revenues from fees for licensing the use of our trademarks. In the first nine months of 2005, Calvin Klein royalty and other revenues comprised 85.6% of total royalty and other revenues. Calvin Klein royalty and other revenues are derived under licenses and other arrangements primarily for jeans, underwear, footwear, fragrances, eyewear, watches, jewelry, soft home furnishings and women's sportswear. In December 2004, we acquired the companies that own and license the Arrow tradename, which is generating additional royalty and other revenues in 2005.


In the first nine months of 2005, net sales were 89.2% and royalty and other revenues were 10.8% of our total revenues.



13



Gross profit on total revenues is total revenues less cost of goods sold. We include as cost of goods sold costs of production and procurement of product, including inbound freight, inspection and internal transfer costs. Since there is no cost of goods sold associated with royalty and other revenues, 100% of such revenues is included in gross profit. Due to the above factors, our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other entities.


Selling, general and administrative expenses include all operating expenses, other than expenses included in cost of goods sold. Salaries and related fringe benefits are the largest component of selling, general and administrative expenses, comprising 47.8% of such expenses in the first nine months of 2005. Rent and occupancy for offices, warehouses and retail stores is the next largest expense, comprising 20.4% of selling, general and administrative expenses in the first nine months of 2005.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Thirteen Weeks Ended October 30, 2005 Compared With Thirteen Weeks Ended October 31, 2004


Net Sales


Net sales in the third quarter of 2005 increased 11.6% to $471.8 million from $422.7 million in the prior year. This increase included the following: (i) the addition of $6.7 million of net sales attributable to growth of our IZOD wholesale sportswear business; (ii) the addition of $18.5 million of net sales attributable to growth in our wholesale dress shirt business, particularly from the Sean John and Chaps lines, which were launched in the latter portion of the second half of 2004, and the Donald J. Trump Signature Collection line, which was launched in the first quarter of 2005, as well as continued strength in our core brands and (iii) the addition of $25.5 million of net sales attributable to growth of our Calvin Klein men's better sportswear line marketed to upscale specialty and department stores and the continued opening of Calvin Klein retail outlet stores in premium outlet malls.


Royalty and Other Revenues


Royalty and other revenues in the third quarter of 2005 increased 20.9% to $61.4 million from $50.8 million in the prior year. Of the $10.6 million increase, $7.3 million was attributable to the Calvin Klein Licensing segment due to new licensees and growth exhibited by existing licensees. The remaining $3.3 million increase was attributable to the Apparel and Related Products segment, resulting principally from the Arrow brand license agreements acquired as part of our acquisition of Arrow in December 2004.


Gross Profit on Total Revenues


Gross profit on total revenues in the third quarter of 2005 was $249.2 million, or 46.7% of total revenues, compared with $209.9 million, or 44.3% of total revenues in the prior year. The 240 basis point improvement was due principally to the following:  (i) overall lower product costs; (ii) the elimination of Arrow royalty costs in connection with our acquisition of Arrow in December 2004 and (iii) a change in revenue mix, as royalty and other revenues increased as a percentage of total revenues.  Royalty and other revenues do not carry a cost of sales, and as such, the gross profit percentage on such revenues is 100%.


Selling, General and Administrative Expenses


Selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2005 were $177.6 million, or 33.3% of total revenues, and $160.4 million, or 33.9% of total revenues, in the prior year. The 60 basis point decrease was attributable to leveraging the 12.6% revenue increase against the 10.7% expense increase for the third quarter of 2005. The $17.2 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2005 included:  (i) additional expenses associated with operating and advertising our Calvin Klein businesses, including our Calvin Klein men's better sportswear line and additional Calvin Klein retail outlet store openings in premium outlet malls; (ii) additional operating expenses, including advertising expenses, in our wholesale dress shirt and sportswear businesses to support the sales growth mentioned previously and (iii) start up costs associated with the transfer to Fingen S.p.A. from Vestimen ta S.p.A. of the licenses for the Calvin Klein men's and women's high-end collection apparel and accessories businesses.  Offsetting these increases, in part, was the absence of expenses incurred in the same period in the prior year associated with our exiting of the wholesale footwear business and relocation of our retail footwear operations.

Interest Expense, Net


The majority of our interest expense relates to our fixed rate long-term debt. As a result, variances in our net interest expense tend to be driven by changes in interest income and, to a lesser extent, costs related to our revolving credit facility.


Net interest expense in the third quarter of 2005 was $7.2 million compared with $8.4 million in the prior year. The net interest expense decrease was due principally to an increase in interest income from our higher cash position and an increase in interest rates over the prior year.


Income Taxes


Income taxes for the current year are estimated at a rate of 37.4%, compared with last year's full year rate of 32.6%. Last year's full year tax rate included the effects of state net operating loss carryforwards, including a $3.0 million reduction in the year-end valuation allowance for such carryforwards.


Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 30, 2005 Compared With Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 31, 2004


Net Sales


Net sales in the first nine months of 2005 increased 18.0% to $1,292.5 million from $1,095.4 million in the prior year. This increase included the following: (i) the addition of $74.1 million of net sales attributable to growth of our IZOD, Van Heusen and Arrow wholesale sportswear businesses; (ii) the addition of $60.7 million of net sales attributable to growth in our wholesale dress shirt business, particularly from the new BCBG Max Azria, BCBG Attitude, Sean John and Chaps lines, which were launched in the second half of 2004, and the new Donald J. Trump Signature Collection line, which was launched in the first quarter of 2005, as well as continued strength in our core brands and (iii) the addition of $75.0 million of net sales attributable to growth of our Calvin Klein men's better sportswear line marketed to upscale specialty and department stores, which we commenced selling in the second quarter of 2004, and the continued opening of Calvin Klein retail outlet stores in premium outlet malls. These increases were offset, in part, by a sales decline in our Bass retail outlet business, which was negatively impacted by a difficult footwear environment in the first half of the year.


Net sales for the full year 2005 are expected to increase 16% to 17% due principally to: (i) growth in our Calvin Klein men's better sportswear line, which we began selling in the second quarter of 2004, and the continued opening of Calvin Klein retail outlet stores in premium outlet malls; (ii) growth in our wholesale IZOD, Van Heusen and Arrow sportswear divisions; (iii) full year sales for the BCBG Max Azria, BCBG Attitude, Sean John, Chaps and Donald J. Trump Signature Collection dress shirt brands and (iv) growth in our core dress shirt brands.


Royalty and Other Revenues


Royalty and other revenues in the first nine months of 2005 increased 18.1% to $156.3 million from $132.3 million in the prior year. Of the $24.0 million increase, $15.4 million was attributable to the Calvin Klein Licensing segment due to new licensees and growth exhibited by existing licensees. The remaining $8.6 million increase was attributable to the Apparel and Related Products segment, resulting principally from the Arrow brand license agreements acquired as part of our acquisition of Arrow in December 2004, as well as an increase in revenues from the IZOD women's sportswear business licensed to Kellwood Company.


We currently expect that royalty and other revenues will increase approximately 12% for the full year 2005, due principally to growth in the businesses of existing Calvin Klein licensees, as well as royalties generated by new Calvin Klein license agreements, and the addition of the royalties generated by the license agreements for the Arrow brand, which we acquired in December 2004.




15



Gross Profit on Total Revenues


Gross profit on total revenues in the first nine months of 2005 was $668.8 million, or 46.2% of total revenues, compared with $553.2 million, or 45.1% of total revenues in the prior year. The 110 basis point improvement was due principally to overall lower product costs and the elimination of Arrow royalty costs in connection with our acquisition of Arrow in December 2004. We are currently estimating the full year 2005 gross profit percentage to be slightly above last year's rate of 45.8%.


Selling, General and Administrative Expenses


Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first nine months of 2005 were $504.4 million, or 34.8% of total revenues, and $454.9 million, or 37.1% of total revenues, in the prior year. The 230 basis point decrease was attributable to leveraging the 18.0% revenue increase against the 10.9% expense increase for the first nine months of 2005. The $49.5 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the first nine months of 2005 included:  (i) additional expenses associated with operating and advertising our Calvin Klein businesses, including our Calvin Klein men's better sportswear line, which was launched in the second quarter of 2004, and additional Calvin Klein retail outlet store openings in premium outlet malls; (ii) additional operating expenses, including advertising expenses, in our wholesale dress shirt and sportswear businesses to support the sales growth mentioned previously and (iii) an increas e in corporate and other expenses, including incentive compensation costs. Offsetting these increases, in part, was the absence of expenses incurred in the same period in the prior year associated with exiting the wholesale footwear business and relocating our retail footwear operations.


We currently anticipate full year 2005 selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues to decrease 200 to 225 basis points compared with 2004's rate of 37.9%, resulting principally from effectively leveraging the expected revenue increases previously mentioned.


Interest Expense, Net


The majority of our interest expense relates to our fixed rate long-term debt. As a result, variances in our net interest expense tend to be driven by changes in interest income and, to a lesser extent, costs related to our revolving credit facility.


Net interest expense in the first nine months of 2005 was $22.6 million compared with $34.7 million in the prior year. Net interest expense in the prior year included a prepayment penalty of $7.3 million and the write-off of prepaid financing fees of $2.1 million in connection with the purchase and redemption of our 9 1/2% senior subordinated notes due 2008 in February 2004. These notes were purchased and redeemed with the net proceeds of the issuance on February 18, 2004 of 7 1/4% senior unsecured notes due 2011. Also contributing to the decrease in net interest expense was an increase in interest income from our higher cash position and an increase in interest rates over the prior year.


Income Taxes


Income taxes for the current year are estimated at a rate of 37.4%, compared with last year's full year rate of 32.6%. Last year's full year tax rate included the effects of state net operating loss carryforwards, including a $3.0 million reduction in the year-end valuation allowance for such carryforwards.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Generally, our principal source of cash is from operations, and our principal uses of cash are for capital expenditures, contingent purchase price payments to Mr. Calvin Klein and dividends.


Operations


Cash provided by operating activities was $82.2 million in the first nine months of 2005 compared with $31.8 million in the prior year. Contributing to the increase in cash provided by operating activities compared with the prior year was a $69.8 million increase in cash flow from net income, adjusted for depreciation, amortization, deferred income taxes and the prepayment penalty on the early extinguishment of debt, and a $13.1 million increase



16



in cash flow from prepaid expenses and other, net, due to various items, including increases in certain noncurrent employee benefit liabilities. These increases were offset, in part, by a $32.7 million decrease in cash flow resulting from an increase in receivables due principally to the third quarter sales increases in our wholesale businesses. In addition, the prior year change in receivables included the benefit of the collection of receivables due to our exiting of the wholesale footwear and Calvin Klein men's and women's high-end collection wholesale apparel businesses, which were licensed to third parties.


We currently expect our cash flow from operating activities in 2005 to be slightly higher than the prior year amount of $143 million. An anticipated increase in 2005 net income should be offset by growth in working capital and an expected increase in income tax payments due to exhausting certain net operating loss carryforwards.


Capital Spending


Our capital spending in the first nine months of 2005 was $24.6 million. We currently expect that capital spending in 2005 will approximate $40 million. Our capital spending is generally for information systems, warehouse and office facilities and retail outlet stores. As such, we have no long-term contractual commitments for capital spending.


Contingent Purchase Price Payments


In connection with our acquisition of Calvin Klein in 2003, we are obligated to pay Mr. Calvin Klein contingent purchase price payments through 2017 based on 1.15% of total worldwide net sales of products bearing any of the Calvin Klein brands. Such contingent purchase price payments are recorded as an addition to goodwill and totaled $19.3 million in the first nine months of 2005. We currently expect that such payments will be $25 million to $27 million in 2005.


Dividends


During the second quarter of 2005, certain holders of our Series B convertible preferred stock voluntarily converted a portion of such stock into shares of our common stock. The shares of common stock issued upon conversion were then sold in a registered offering by the holders. In connection with these transactions, we made an inducement payment to the preferred stockholders of $1.75 for each share of common stock sold, or an aggregate of $12.9 million, and incurred certain costs, totaling $1.3 million, in connection with the offering. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the aggregate $14.2 million inducement payment and offering costs are treated similar to a preferred stock dividend.


The Series B convertible preferred stock has a dividend rate of 8.0% per annum, payable in cash. If we elect not to pay a cash dividend for any quarter, the then-outstanding shares will be treated for purposes of the payment of future dividends and upon conversion, redemption or liquidation as if an in-kind dividend had been paid. We currently expect to pay the dividends on the Series B convertible preferred stock in cash for the foreseeable future. Based on the current liquidation preference of $161.9 million, cash dividends, not including the above mentioned inducement premium and offering costs, are expected to aggregate $15.0 million in 2005.


Our common stock currently pays an annual dividend of $0.15 per share. Cash dividends on our common stock in 2005 are expected to approximate $5.7 million.


Cash Flow Summary


Our net cash flow in the first nine months of 2005 was $46.2 million. The current year's first nine months benefited from $39.6 million of stock option exercises, due in large part to exercises of performance-based stock options by our former chief executive officer. We currently estimate cash from stock option exercises will be approximately $50 million in 2005.


Considering all of the above mentioned factors, we currently expect to generate $95 million to $100 million of cash flow in 2005. There can be no assurance that this estimate will prove to be accurate, or that unforeseen events, including changes in anticipated levels of stock option exercises, our net income, working capital requirements or other items, including acquisitions, could occur which could cause our cash flow to vary.




17



Financing Arrangements


Our capital structure as of October 30, 2005 was as follows:


(in millions)


Long-term debt

$399.5

Series B convertible preferred stock

161.9

Stockholders' equity

563.4


We believe this capital structure provides a secure base. There are no maturities of our long-term debt until 2011. Our Series B convertible preferred stock has a conversion price of $14.00 per share. Based on current market conditions, and given that redemption cannot be required until November 2013, we believe it likely that the remaining preferred stock will be converted to common stock. The preferred stockholders have the right to convert the remaining preferred stock to common stock at any time.


For near-term liquidity, in addition to our cash balance, we have a $325.0 million secured revolving credit facility that provides for revolving credit borrowings, as well as the issuance of letters of credit. We may, at our option, borrow and repay amounts up to a maximum of $325.0 million for revolving credit borrowings and the issuance of letters of credit, with no sublimits. Based on our working capital projections, we believe that our borrowing capacity under this facility provides us with adequate liquidity for our peak seasonal needs for the foreseeable future. During the first nine months of 2005, we had no revolving credit borrowings under the facility, and the maximum amount of letters of credit outstanding was $188.2 million. As of October 30, 2005, we had $143.3 million outstanding letters of credit under this facility.


Given our capital structure and our projections for future profitability and cash flow, we believe we could obtain additional financing, if necessary, for refinancing our long-term debt or preferred stock, or, if opportunities present themselves, future acquisitions.


SEASONALITY


Our seasonality has changed significantly since our acquisition of Calvin Klein, as the licensing business's royalty and other revenues, which tend to be earned somewhat evenly throughout the year, moderate the fluctuation in revenues and profitability from our dress shirt and sportswear wholesale businesses. Our acquisition of Arrow, which added additional royalty revenues, has further moderated this fluctuation. Royalty revenues are highest in the third quarter, while the wholesale businesses generate higher levels of sales and income in the first and third quarters, as sales of spring and fall merchandise to our department store customers occur at higher levels as these selling seasons begin.


The aggregate effect of our seasonality is that our first and third quarters have the highest levels of revenue and income. Revenues in the second and fourth quarters are relatively equal, but earnings in the fourth quarter are lower due to significant holiday advertising costs, as well as post-holiday promotional selling and inventory clearance activity.


ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


Financial instruments held by the Company include cash equivalents and long-term debt. Interest rates on the Company's long-term debt are fixed, therefore a change in rates would not have an effect on the Company's interest expense. Note 9, "Long-Term Debt," in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 30, 2005 outlines the principal amounts, interest rates, fair values and other terms required to evaluate the expected sensitivity of interest rate changes on the fair value of the Company's fixed rate long-term debt. Cash equivalents held by the Company are affected by short-term interest rates. Therefore, a change in short-term interest rates would have an impact on the Company's interest income.



18



Substantially all of the Company's sales and expenses are currently denominated in United States dollars. However, certain of the Company's operations and license agreements, particularly in the Calvin Klein Licensing segment, expose the Company to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily the rate of exchange of the United States dollar against the Euro and the Yen. Exchange rate fluctuations can cause the United States dollar equivalent of the foreign currency cash flows to vary. This exposure arises as a result of (i) license agreements that require licensees to make royalty and other payments to the Company based on the local currency in which the licensees operate, with the Company bearing the risk of exchange rate fluctuations and (ii) the Company's retail and administrative operations that require cash outflows in foreign currencies. To a certain extent, there is a natural hedge of exchang e rate changes in that the foreign license agreements generally produce cash inflows and the foreign retail and administrative operations generally produce cash outflows. The Company may from time to time purchase foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge against changes in exchange rates. No forward exchange contracts were held as of October 30, 2005. The Company believes that future exchange rate changes will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


As of October 30, 2005, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting were effective as of October 30, 2005. Disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and for ms.


There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

1.

I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation;
