Revenue Recognition

Note 9 – Revenue Recognition

Disaggregation of Revenue

In accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company discloses its revenues by segment. Each segment presents its own characteristics with respect to the timing of revenue recognition and the type of customer. In addition, disaggregating revenues using a segment basis is consistent with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker manages the Company. The Company has identified the wholesale operations segment and the retail operations segment as distinct sources of revenue.

Wholesale Operations Segment. Wholesale revenues include sales of products to retailers under owned, licensed and private label brands, as well as sales related to the Vilebrequin business. Wholesale revenues from sales of products are recognized when control transfers to the customer. The Company considers control to have been transferred when the Company has transferred physical possession of the product, the Company has a right to payment for the product, the customer has legal title to the product and the customer has the significant risks and rewards of the product. Wholesale revenues are adjusted by variable consideration arising from implicit or explicit obligations. Wholesale revenues also include revenues from license agreements related to the DKNY, Donna Karan, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Vilebrequin

trademarks owned by the Company. As of April 30, 2021, revenues from license agreements represented an insignificant portion of wholesale revenues.

Retail Operations Segment. Retail store revenues are generated by direct sales to consumers through company-operated stores and product sales through the Company’s digital channels for the DKNY, Donna Karan, G.H. Bass, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Andrew Marc and Wilsons Leather businesses. Prior to completion of the restructuring in fiscal 2021, retail stores primarily consisted of Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass, DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris retail stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores. The Company’s Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass stores were closed in fiscal 2021 as a result of the restructuring. Retail operations segment revenues are recognized at the point of sale when the customer takes possession of the goods and tenders payment. Digital revenues primarily consist of sales to consumers through the Company’s digital platforms. Digital revenue is recognized when a customer takes possession of the goods. Retail sales are recorded net of applicable sales tax.

Contract Liabilities

The Company’s contract liabilities, which are recorded within accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, primarily consist of gift card liabilities and advance payments from licensees. In some of its retail concepts, the Company also offers a limited loyalty program where customers accumulate points redeemable for cash discount certificates that expire 90 days after issuance. Total contract liabilities were $4.1 million, $4.1 million and $5.9 million at April 30, 2021, April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2021, respectively. The Company recognized $3.2 million in revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2021 related to contract liabilities that existed at January 31, 2021. The Company recognized $3.5 million in revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2020 related to contract liabilities that existed at January 31, 2020.  There were no contract assets recorded as of April 30, 2021, April 30, 2020 and January 31, 2021. Substantially all of the advance payments from licensees as of April 30, 2021 are expected to be recognized as revenue within the next twelve months.
