This Statement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. - 4 - THE WARNACO GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCLUDING SHARE DATA) (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of The Warnaco Group, Inc. (the "Company"), the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (all of which were of a normal recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2000 as well as its results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2000 and October 2, 1999. Operating results for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2000. Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to be comparable with the current period presentation. Restatement: In connection with the issuance of its fiscal 2000 consolidated financial statements the Company restated January 3, 1998 stockholders' equity reducing the balance by $26,000. The effect of the restatement on the January 1, 2000 balance sheet was as follows: to increase accounts receivable reserves by $64.100 to provide for discounts, returns and allowances not previously reserved, to decrease inventory by $11,900, to decrease other assets by $8,600 to increase accrued liabilities by $8,100, partially offset by an increase to non-current deferred tax assets of $66,700 to provide for the tax effects of such adjustments and to eliminate tax accruals not required. The 1999 and 2000 accounts have been revised to be consistent with the accounting for the matters that resulted in the adjustments to retained earnings. In addition, the fiscal 2000 consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the effects of the change in accounting principle related to the Company's valuation of its retail outlet store inventory discussed below, as well as other adjustments principally related to purchase accounting, amortization of deferred financing costs, depreciation expense and special charges. The impact of the restatements for the periods presented is as follows:
THREE MONTHS ENDED NINE MONTHS ENDED ----------------------------------------------------------------- SEPTEMBER 30, OCTOBER 2, SEPTEMBER 30, OCTOBER 2, 2000 1999 2000 1999 --------------- ------------ ------------- ---------- Increase (Decrease) net revenue $ 27 $(2,500) $ 314 $ 2,500 (Increase) Decrease cost of goods sold 4,203 (500) 7,533 (8,500) (Increase) Decrease selling, general and administrative expenses 1,909 (1,300) (4,847) (3,900) Increase interest expense (2,098) -- (3,000) -- ------- ------- ------- ------- (Increase) Decrease pre-tax loss 4,041 (4,300) -- (9,900) Increase (Decrease) income tax provision 1,485 (4,300) -- (12,000) ------- ------- ------- ------- Increase in net income (loss) $ 2,556 $ -- $ -- $ 2,100 ======= ======= ======= ======= Increase per diluted share $ .05 $ -- $ -- $ .04 ======= ======= ======= =======
The above changes are before the cumulative effect of the change in accounting. In addition, the September 30, 2000 balance sheet has been further restated by a reclassification of $190,459 to increase cash and a corresponding increase in long-term debt to reflect cash held in investment or collateral accounts that was offset against long-term debt in the Original Filing. Change in Accounting Principle: Effective January 2, 2000, the Company changed its accounting method for valuing its retail outlet store inventory to the actual cost method. Prior to the change, the Company valued its retail outlet inventory using average cost. The Company believes its new method is preferable because it results in a better matching of revenue and expense and is consistent with the method used for its other inventories. The cumulative effect of the change as of January 1, 2000 was $13,110, net of tax ($.25 per share). The information necessary to determine the pro-forma effect on 1999 results of operations is not available. Impact of New Accounting Standards: In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." This statement addresses a limited number of issues causing implementation difficulties for entities applying SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (i) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (ii) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (iii) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. This Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this statement on its consolidated financial position, liquidity, cash flows and results of operations. In May 2000, the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives," which addresses the accounting for sales incentives, rebates, coupons and free products or services. EITF No. 00-14 is effective for calendar year companies in the fourth quarter of 2000. The adoption of EITF No. 00-14 did not have an impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations. In March 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued Issue 00-7 "Accounting application of EITF Issue No. 96-13, `Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock,' to Equity Derivative Transactions That Require Net Cash Settlement If Certain Events Occur". In July 2000, the EITF issued Issue No. 00-19, "Determination of Whether Share Settlement Is Within the Control of the Company for Purposes of Applying EITF Issue No. 96-13". EITF No. 00-19 may require the Company to mark to market the Equity Forward Purchase Transaction Agreements entered into on December 10, 1999 and February 10, 2000 ("Equity Agreements") unless the Company amends such agreements by June 30, 2001 to remove provisions which require net cash settlement. See Note 2 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. -5- THE WARNACO GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCLUDING SHARE DATA) (UNAUDITED) In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." This bulletin summarizes certain of the SEC Staff's views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. The implementation of this bulletin in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 did not have an impact on the Company's results of operations or equity. NOTE 2 - EQUITY As of September 30, 2000 and January 1, 2000, Class A common stock outstanding was 53,343,822 shares, net of 12,063,672 shares held in treasury and 53,229,388 shares, net of 12,163,650 held in treasury, respectively. In connection with the Company's stock repurchase program, the Company entered into the Equity Agreements on December 10, 1999 and February 10, 2000. The Equity Agreements provide for the purchase by the Company of up to 5.2 million shares of the Company's Common Stock from two banks and mature on August 12, 2002. As of September 30, 2000, the banks had purchased 5.2 million shares under the Equity Agreements. On September 19, 2000, the Equity Agreements were amended and supplemented to reduce the price at which the Equity Agreements could be settled from $12.90 and $10.90, respectively to $4.50 a share to provide for an aggregate cash payment by the Company of up to $23.4 million and the issuance of promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to $23.4 million, which mature on the same date and bear the same interest rate as the Company's credit facilities. In return for this reduction the banks received interest bearing notes payable on August 12, 2002 in an initial aggregate amount of $40,372 which resulted in a corresponding reduction in shareholders equity. At September 30, 2000, the price at which the Company could effect net cash settlement with the two banks under the Equity Agreements was $4.50. Dividends on the shares outstanding under the Equity Agreements are reimbursed to the Company. On October 6th, the Company entered into a modification agreement of its credit facilities which prohibited the option of share and physical settlement. The terms of the Equity Agreements allow the banks to sell, under certain conditions, the 5.2 million shares and receive additional interest bearing notes if the sale price is less than $4.50 per share or to pay cash to the Company or reduce the outstanding notes if the sale price is in excess of $4.50. Such additional notes would also mature on August 12, 2002. At September 30, if these Equity Agreements were settled on a net cash settlement basis, the settlement costs would be approximately $2,600. Also see Note 5 - Debt. NOTE 3 - SPECIAL CHARGES THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2000 As a result of a further strategic review of the Company's worldwide businesses, manufacturing, distribution and other facilities, and product lines and styles, the Company initiated a global implementation of programs designed to create cost efficiencies through plant consolidations, workforce reductions and consolidation of the finance, manufacturing and operations organizations within the Company. As a result of the decision to implement these programs, the Company recorded restructuring and special charges of $98,053 during the third quarter of fiscal 2000 related to costs to exit certain facilities and activities and consolidate such operations, including charges related to inventory write-downs and other asset write-offs, facility shutdown and lease obligation costs, employee termination and severance costs, retail outlet store closings and other related costs. The third quarter restructuring and special charges are net of $2,100 of reversals of second quarter charges due to lower costs than originally anticipated in exiting certain leased facilities. The non-cash portion of the charge is $67,398 and the cash portion is $30,655. Of the total amount of charges, $66,548 as restated is reflected in cost of goods sold and $31,505 as restated is reflected in selling, administrative and general expenses. The detail of the charge, including costs incurred and reserves remaining for costs estimated to be incurred through completion of the aforementioned programs are summarized below: -6- THE WARNACO GROUP, INC.

On December 20, 1999, an Amended Class Action Complaint ("Amended Complaint") was filed and on January 6, 2000, the Court designated the Amended Complaint as the operative complaint for a consolidated action captioned: In Re Authentic Fitness Corporation Shareholders Litigation, C.A. No. 17464-NC (consolidated). In the Amended Complaint (and all six complaints made virtually identical claims), plaintiffs allege an unlawful scheme by certain of the defendants, in breach of their fiduciary duties, to allow the Company to acquire Authentic Fitness shares for inadequate consideration. On September 29, 2000, the Chancery Court approved the dismissal of the consolidated action without prejudice. On May 30, 2000, Calvin Klein, Inc. and the Calvin Klein Trademark Trust filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York (Calvin Klein Trademark Trust, et al. v. The Warnaco Group, Inc. et al. No. 00CIV. 4052 (JSR) (S.D.N.Y.)) against The Warnaco Group, Inc., various other Warnaco entities, and Wachner alleging, inter alia, claims for breach of contract and trademark violations. The complaint seeks, inter alia, termination of certain licensing agreements and trademark rights, injunctive relief and damages. On June 26, 2000, the Warnaco defendants filed an answer and counterclaims (amended on July 31, 2000) against Calvin Klein, Inc. for, inter alia, breach of the jeanswear and men's accessories licenses and breach of fiduciary duty, and against Calvin Klein, Inc. and Calvin Klein personally for tortious interference with business relations, defamation and trade libel. Warnaco is seeking, inter alia, damages, injunctive and declaratory relief. On August 3, 2000, the Court announced it would grant defendants' motion to dismiss Wachner from four counts of the complaint. On August 29, 2000, the Court reaffirmed its dismissal of Wachner from Counts nine, ten, eleven and twelve of the Complaint, which alleged breach of the Quality Assurance Agreement, breach of the Jeanswear License, breach of the Men's Accessories License and breach of the Store License Agreement, respectively. The Court granted the Warnaco defendants' motion to dismiss Counts four, five and sixteen of the Complaint, which alleged breach of fiduciary duty, constructive trust and deceptive acts or practices, respectively. The Court also dismissed defendants The Warnaco Group, Inc. and Wachner from Count eight, which alleged intentional misrepresentation, and granted defendants' motion to stay Count eight as to Warnaco Inc., pending arbitration. On October 10, 2000, the Court denied plaintiffs' motion to dismiss Counterclaims one (alleging breach of the Jeanswear License against CKI), two (alleging breach of the Accessories License against CKI), three and four (alleging defamation and trade libel, respectively, against CKI and Calvin Klein personally), five and six (alleging defamation and trade libel, respectively, against CKI) seven (alleging tortious interference with business relations against CKI and Calvin Klein) and nine (alleging removal of CKI as servicer except to the extent premised on the alleged occurrence of a "CKI Event" under the Administrative Agreement). The Court granted plaintiffs' motion to dismiss defendants' Counterclaim eight which alleged breach of fiduciary duty against CKI, leaving in place all other Warnaco Counterclaims. -16- THE WARNACO GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCLUDING SHARE DATA) (UNAUDITED) The Company believes the claims of Calvin Klein, Inc. and the Calvin Klein Trademark Trust to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend and to pursue its counterclaims.

On September 14, 2000, Speedo International Limited ("SIL") filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, styled Speedo International Limited v. Authentic Fitness Corp., et al., No. 00 Civ. 6931 (DAB), against The Warnaco Group, Inc. and various other Warnaco entities (the "Warnaco defendants") alleging claims, inter alia, for breach of contract and trademark violations. The complaint seeks, inter alia, termination of certain licensing agreements, injunctive relief and damages. On November 8, 2000, the Warnaco defendants filed an answer and counterclaims against SIL seeking, inter alia, a declaration that the Warnaco defendants have not engaged in trademark violations and are not in breach of the licensing agreements, and that the licensing agreements in issue may not be terminated. The Company believes the claims of SIL to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend and pursue its counterclaims. Between August 22, 2000 and October 26, 2000, seven putative class action complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its officers and directors. The complaints, on behalf of a putative class of shareholders of the Company who purchased Company stock between September 17, 1997 and July 20, 2000 (the "Class Period"), allege, inter alia, that defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by artificially inflating the price of the Company's stock and failing to disclose negative information during the Class Period. The complaints seek damages and other relief. Motions to consolidate, approve a Lead Plaintiff and approve a Lead Counsel are pending. A hearing is scheduled for November 17, 2000. The Company believes the claims to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend them. On October 13, 2000, a shareholders' derivative complaint was filed on behalf of the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, styled Widdicombe, derivatively on behalf of The Warnaco Group, Inc. v. Linda J. Wachner, et al., No. 00 Civ. 7816 (LMM), naming certain Company officers and directors as defendants (the "Individual Defendants") and the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint (which has not yet been served on the Company) asserts claims on the Company's behalf for, inter alia, breach of fiduciary duty, corporate waste and unjust enrichment, and seeks, inter alia, damages, punitive damages, and the imposition of a constructive trust upon the assets of the Individual Defendants. -17- ITEM 2.

Net incremental revenues contributed by the 1999 acquisition of Authentic Fitness ($339.5 million) and ABS ($30.1 million) amounted to $369.6 million. SPORTSWEAR AND ACCESSORIES DIVISION. Net revenues decreased $40.1 million or 13.9% to $249.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $289.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Net incremental revenues contributed by the 1999 acquisitions of Authentic Fitness ($21.2 million) and ABS ($7.9 million) amounted to $29.1 million. Excluding acquisitions, net revenues of $219.9 million were 23.9% lower than the fiscal quarter of 1999. Chaps net revenue in the quarter was $61.3 million, down 36.3% from $96.2 million last year. The decrease in net revenue is primarily due to Chaps being adversely affected by the discounted pricing policy of its competitors as well as their lost customers, SRI and Uptons due to bankruptcy. Shipments resumed to SRI subsequent to July 1, 2000. In addition Calvin Klein Jeans Division revenues was $146.9 million down $37.0 million or 20.1% from $183.9 million last year in the Juniors and Kids divisions primarily resulting from the impact of the litigation. For the nine-month period net revenues increased $223.1 million or 30.6% to $952.9 million compared with $729.8 million for the nine-month period last year. Net incremental revenues contributed by the 1999 acquisitions of Authentic Fitness ($292.8 million), ABS ($30.1 million) amounted to $322.9 million. Excluding acquisitions, net revenues of $630.0 million were down 13.7% compared to the same period last year. The decrease in net revenue is primarily in Chaps, down 24.5% to $185.7 million from $245.9 million last year, primarily due to the adverse effect of the discounted pricing policy of its competitors and the lost customers as cited above. In addition, the Calvin Klein Jeans division's revenues -18- were down 10.0% to $417.1 million from $463.3 million for the nine-month period last year, primarily in the Juniors division. INTIMATE APPAREL DIVISION. Net revenues decreased $54.2 million or 22.0% to $192.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $246.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Warner's and Olga decreased $22.9 million to $63.8 million from $86.7 million primarily due to the loss of three major customers (Uptons, Eaton's and Mercantile) and softness at retail in intimate apparel. Calvin Klein underwear decreased $19.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 primarily in Sleepwear to $79.8 million from $98.9 million last year. Lejaby decreased $4.9 million to $16.1 million primarily related to the weakness of the Euro against the U.S. dollar (foreign exchange). For the nine-month period, net revenues in the Intimate Apparel division decreased $87.7 million or 12.9% to $592.8 million from $680.5 million during the nine-month period last year. Warners and Olga decreased $37.9 million to $210.4 million from $248.3 million last year due to their lost accounts mentioned above. Calvin Klein Underwear decreased $21.3 million to $220.2 from $241.5 million, primarily in Sleepwear, and Lejaby decreased $8.2 million to $67.6 million from $75.8 million due to the weakness of the Euro against the U.S. dollar (foreign exchange). RETAIL STORE DIVISION. Net revenues increased $17.4 million or 41.9% to $58.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $41.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. The acquisition of Authentic Fitness contributed $16.7 million to net revenues. Excluding net revenues of Authentic Fitness, net revenues increased $0.7 million or 1.7%. For the nine-month period of fiscal 2000, net revenues increased 57.2% to $158.3 million compared with $100.7 million for the nine-month period in fiscal 1999. The acquisition of Authentic Fitness contributed $46.7 million to net revenues. Excluding Authentic Fitness, net revenue of $111.6 million increased 10.8% due to a significant effort made to liquidate excess inventory and improve cash flow. Gross profit (excluding special charges) decreased $70.6 million or 35.6% to $127.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $198.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Gross margin was 25.6% in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with 34.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period gross profit (excluding special charges) decreased $22.2 million or 4.3% to $500.6 million compared with $522.8 million recorded for the fiscal 1999 period. Gross margin was 29.4% for the nine-months compared to 34.6% last year. The decrease in gross margin in the third quarter and nine-months is attributable to higher off-price sales and increased markdowns taken in the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2000 to reduce inventories and improve cash flow. Also included in cost of sales is $66.5 million and $156.3 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000, respectively, related to the global operating initiatives discussed above, see Note 3 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. Gross profit on an as reported basis after these charges were $61.4 million and $344.3 million for the third quarter and nine-months of fiscal 2000, respectively. SPORTSWEAR AND ACCESSORIES DIVISION. Gross profit (excluding special charges) decreased $44.0 million or 45.7% to $52.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $96.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Gross margins were 21.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with 33.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period gross profit (excluding special charges) increased $37.5 million or 16.0% to $272.5 million compared with $235.0 million in the comparable fiscal 1999 period. Gross margin for the nine-month period of fiscal 2000 was 28.6% compared to 32.2% for the same period last year. The decrease in gross margin is due to higher margins of the newly acquired Authentic Fitness brands offset by markdowns taken in the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2000 primarily to reduce Chaps and Calvin Klein junior's inventories and improve cash flow. In addition, restructuring and special charges as outlined above were $25.1 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000. -19- INTIMATE APPAREL DIVISION. Gross profit (excluding special charges) decreased $40.3 million or 45.3% to $48.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $88.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Gross margins were 25.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with 36.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period gross profit (excluding special charges) decreased $95.4 million or 37.4% to $159.4 million compared with $254.8 million in the fiscal 1999 period. Gross margin was 26.9% for the nine-month period of fiscal 2000 compared with 37.4% for the nine-month period of fiscal 1999. The decrease in gross margin is due to markdowns taken in the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2000 to reduce inventories and improve cash flow. In addition, restructuring and special charges as outlined above were $35.6 million and $116.0 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000. RETAIL STORE DIVISION. Gross profit (excluding special charges) increased $13.7 million or 103.0% to $27.0 million (45.9% of net revenues) in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $13.3 million (32.2% of net revenues) in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period, gross profit (excluding special charges) increased $35.7 million or 108.2% to $68.7 million (43.4% of net revenues) compared with $33.0 million (32.8% of net revenues) in the fiscal 1999 period. The increase in gross margin is due to higher margins in the Authentic Fitness retail stores. In addition, restructuring and special charges as outlined above were $5.9 million in the third quarter and $15.2 nine months of fiscal 2000. Selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding special charges) increased $22.3 million or 19.8% to $134.9 million as compared to $112.6 million in third quarter of fiscal 1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 27.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with 19.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period, selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding special charges) increased $96.9 million or 29.6% to $424.6 million as compared to $327.7 million in 1999 period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 24.9% compared with 21.7% in the fiscal 1999 period. The increased selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales is due to an increase in the Company's Retail business (primarily Authentic Fitness), and higher depreciation and amortization expense related to additional goodwill for acquisitions and depreciation for systems implemented in fiscal 1999. Also included in selling, general and administrative expenses is $31.5 million and $50.1 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000, respectively, related to the global operating initiatives discussed above, see Note 3 to consolidated condensed financial statements. Selling, general and administrative expenses on an as reported basis after these charges were $166.4 million and $474.7 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000, respectively. OPERATING PROFIT SPORTSWEAR AND ACCESSORIES DIVISION. Operating profit (excluding special charges) decreased $37.5 million to $17.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $54.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period, operating profit (excluding special charges) increased $13.2 million or 10.7% to $136.7 million compared with $123.5 million in the fiscal 1999 period. The decrease in operating profit in the third quarter resulted from lower sales from the lost accounts and additional markdowns to reduce excess inventory. The increase in operating profit from the nine-months primarily was due to the acquisitions of Authentic Fitness, ABS and Chaps Canada. In addition, restructuring and special charges as outlined above were $32.3 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000. INTIMATE APPAREL DIVISION. Operating profit (excluding special charges) decreased $45.6 million to $5.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $51.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period operating profit (excluding special charges) decreased $86.4 million to $49.0 million compared with $135.4 million in the fiscal 1999 period. The decrease in operating profit primarily was due to the lost account mentioned above, a soft retail environment and markdowns taken in the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2000 to reduce inventories and improve cash flow. In -20- addition, restructuring and special charges as outlined above were $48.7 million and $137.5 million in the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000. RETAIL STORE DIVISION. Operating profit (excluding special charges) decreased $0.4 million to $4.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $4.7 million profit in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period operating profit (excluding special charges) decreased $15.0 million to a loss of $7.7 million compared with $7.3 million profit in the fiscal 1999 period. The decrease in operating profit was due to markdowns taken and other costs incurred in the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2000 to reduce inventories and improve cash flow. In addition, restructuring and special charges as outlined above were $10.0 million and $20.4 for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000 respectively. Interest expense increased $22.7 million to $43.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared with $20.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period interest expense increased $56.4 million to $112.8 million compared with $56.4 million in the fiscal 1999 period. The increase reflects the funding of the Company's 1999 acquisitions and stock buyback program, which totaled more than $800 million. The benefit for income taxes recorded during the third quarter of fiscal 2000 reflects an effective income tax rate of 36.7% as compared to the provision for income taxes recorded at an effective income tax rate of 31.8% for the same period in fiscal 1999. The benefit for income taxes for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 reflects an effective income tax rate of 35.0% as compared to the provision for income taxes recorded at an effective income tax rate of 29.9% for the same period in fiscal 1999. The higher rates in fiscal 2000 compared to last year resulted, in part, from higher non-deductible goodwill, resulting from the 1999 acquisitions. Income (loss) before accounting principle (excluding special charges) for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 was $32.0 million compared with net income of $44.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. For the nine-month period, net loss (excluding special charges and investment income) was $23.9 million compared with net income of $97.2 million in the fiscal 1999 period. Income (loss) before accounting principle on an as reported basis after these items was $94.0 million and $130.3 million for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2000, respectively. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY The Company's liquidity requirements arise primarily from its debt service requirements and the funding of its working capital needs, primarily inventory and accounts receivable. The Company's borrowing requirements are seasonal, with peak working capital needs generally arising during the first half of the fiscal year. The Company typically generates nearly all of its operating cash flow in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year reflecting third and fourth quarter shipments and the sale of inventory built during the first nine months of the fiscal year. Cash used in operations was $234.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared with cash used in operations of $168.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999. The $66.3 million increase in cash used by operating activities reflects a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $205.2 million and lower net income of $240.7 partially offset by the successful effort to lower net inventory, which improved cash flow by $309.2 million, of which $97.7 million was related to the special charges. The Company normally uses the greatest amount of cash on working capital in the first half of the fiscal year due to seasonal inventory requirements. Cash used by investing activities was $44.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared with cash used of $122.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999. The first nine months of fiscal 2000 includes -21- proceeds from the sale of the Company's equity investment in InterWorld Corporation of $50.4 million. Capital expenditures in the first nine months were $85.9 million compared to $66.2 million in the comparable 1999 period. The first nine months of fiscal 2000 includes amounts for new information systems implementations of $39.2 million and store fixture programs of $20.4 million. Intangibles assets and other have decreased $10.1 million from $17.0 million last year to $6.9 million. Cash provided by financing activities was $495.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared with $291.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999. The increase in the Company's revolving credit balance during the first nine months of fiscal 2000 of $499.5 million was higher than the $433.1 million increase in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 due to the deposit of $191.5 million of cash into investment and collateral accounts in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 partially offset by the purchase of $117.2 million of treasury shares in fiscal 1999. Also, the Company received $26.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 from the termination of certain interest rate swaps. The Company paid $14.8 million of dividends in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared to $15.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999. On June 19, 2000, the Company requested and its lenders agreed to waive certain financial covenants contained in certain of its loan agreements for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2000 including the $600,000 and $450,000 Revolving Credit Facilities, the $600,000 364-day Facility, the $500,000 Trade Credit Facility, certain European Credit Lines and the Canadian Credit Facility. The waivers executed on June 19, 2000 were extended through October 6, 2000. On October 6, 2000 the Company and the lenders under its credit facilities entered into an Amendment, Modification, Restatement and General Provisions Agreement. Pursuant to this agreement, the maturity of the $600,000 364-day credit facility entered into on November 17, 1999 was extended from October 8, 2000 to August 12, 2002, a new $400,000 trade credit facility which replaced the Company's existing trade credit facility and which matures on August 12, 2002 was entered into, the maturity of the Company's receivables securitization facility was extended to August 12, 2002 and the maturities of the Company's other credit facilities (except for those that mature after August 12, 2002) were extended to August 12, 2002. As a result of this refinancing, the Company has committed credit facilities in an aggregate amount of $2,593,200 all of which mature on or after August 12, 2002 with substantially no debt amortization until then. As of September 30, 2000, the Company believes that funds available under its existing credit facilities, and cash flow to be generated from future operations will be sufficient to meet the working capital and capital expenditure needs of the Company, including interest and principal payments on outstanding debt obligations for the next twelve months. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." This statement addresses a limited number of issues causing implementation difficulties for entities applying SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (i) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (ii) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (iii) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. This Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this statement on its consolidated financial position, liquidity, cash flows and results of operations. In May 2000, the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives," which addresses the accounting for sales incentives, rebates, coupons -22- and free products or services. EITF No. 00-14 is effective for calendar year companies in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. The adoption of EITF No. 00-14 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In March 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued Issue 00-7 "Accounting application of EITF Issue No. 96-13, `Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock,' to Equity Derivative Transactions That Require Net Cash Settlement If Certain Events Occur". In July 2000, the EITF issued Issue No. 00-19, "Determination of Whether Share Settlement Is within the Control of the Company for Purposes of Applying EITF Issue No. 96-13". EITF No. 00-19 may require the Company to mark to market the Equity Agreements unless the Company amends such agreements by June 30, 2001 to remove provisions which require net cash settlement, See Note 2 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." This bulletin summarizes certain of the SEC Staff's views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. The implementation of this bulletin in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 did not have an impact on the Company's results of operations or equity. STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING DISCLOSURE This report includes "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, which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events that involve risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements include the effect of worldwide regional and country general economic conditions, the overall level of consumer spending, the performance of the Company's products within the prevailing retail environment, competitive pricing pressures, consumer preferences including acceptance of both new designs and newly-introduced product lines, financial difficulties encountered by customers, inflation, merchandise supply constraints, interest rate movements and access to capital. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this quarterly report, including, without limitation, the statements under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition", are forward-looking statements. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this report are qualified by these and other factors, risks and uncertainties. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, and selectively uses financial instruments to manage these risks. The Company does not enter into financial instruments for speculation or for trading purposes. INTEREST RATE RISK The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based primarily on its financing activities. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements, which have the effect of converting the Company's variable rate obligations to fixed rate obligations, to reduce the impact of interest rate fluctuations on cash flow and interest expense. As of September 30, 2000, approximately $643.5 million of interest-rate sensitive obligations were swapped to achieve an average fixed rate of 6.65%, limiting the Company's risk to any future shift in interest rates. As of September 30, 2000, the net fair value asset of all financial instruments -23- (primarily interest rate swap agreements) with exposure to interest rate risk was approximately zero. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had approximately $1,649 million of obligations subject to variable interest rates in excess of such obligations that had been swapped to achieve a fixed rate. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in interest rates as of September 30, 2000 would have had a $10.2 million unfavorable impact on the Company's pre-tax earnings and cash flow over the nine-month period. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK The Company has foreign currency exposures related to buying, selling and financing in currencies other than the functional currency in which it operates. These exposures are primarily concentrated in the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Hong Kong dollar, British pound and the Euro. The Company enters into foreign currency forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of doing business in foreign currencies. The Company hedges currency exposures of firm commitments and anticipated transactions denominated in non-functional currencies to protect against the possibility of diminished cash flow and adverse impacts on earnings. As of September 30, 2000, the net fair value asset of financial instruments with exposure to foreign currency risk was $0.8 million. The potential decrease in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in quoted foreign currency exchange rates would be approximately $1.5 million. EQUITY PRICE RISK The Company is subject to market risk from changes in its stock price as a result of the Equity Agreements. The Equity Agreements provide for the purchase by the Company of up to 5.2 million shares of the Company's Common Stock from two banks and mature on August 12, 2002. The Equity Agreements are required to be settled by the Company, on a net cash settlement basis within the duration of the Equity Agreements. As of September 30, 2000, the banks had purchased 5.2 million shares under the Equity Agreements. On September 19, 2000, the Equity Agreements were amended and supplemented to reduce the price at which the Equity Agreements could be settled from $12.90 and $10.90, respectively to $4.50 a share, to provide for an aggregate cash payment by the Company of up to $23.4 million and the issuance of promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to $23.4 million, which mature on the same date and bear the same interest rate as the Company's credit facilities. In return for this reduction, the banks received interest bearing notes payable on August 12, 2002 in an aggregate amount of $40,372 which resulted in a corresponding reduction in stockholders' equity. Dividends on the shares outstanding under the Equity Agreements are reimbursed to the Company. On October 6, 2000, the Company entered into a modification agreement of its credit facilities which prohibited the option of share and physical settlement. The terms of the Equity Agreements allow the banks to sell, under certain conditions, the 5.2 million shares and receive additional interest bearing notes if the sale price is less than $4.50 per share or to pay cash to the Company or reduce the outstanding notes if the sale price is in excess of $4.50. Such additional notes would also mature on August 12, 2002. If these Equity Agreements were settled on a net cash settlement basis at September 30, 2000, the Company's settlement costs would be approximately $2,600. 24 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
