Note 4 – Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information

We sell our products to a variety of retail outlets, including mass merchants, national chain stores, major department stores, men’s and women’s specialty stores, catalog retailers, grocery stores, drug stores, golf pro shops, sporting goods stores and the retail exchange operations of the United States military. Our company and our corresponding customer relationships are organized along men’s and women’s product lines. As a result, we have two reportable segments: (1) men’s accessories, consisting of belts, wallets, suspenders and other small leather goods, and (2) women’s accessories, consisting of belts, wallets, handbags, socks, scarves, hats and hair accessories. General corporate expenses are allocated to each segment based on the respective segment’s asset base. Depreciation and amortization expense related to assets recorded on our corporate accounting records are allocated to each segment as described above. Management measures profit or loss on each segment based upon income or loss before taxes utilizing the accounting policies consistent in all material respects with those described in Note 1 of our 2003 Annual Report. No inter-segment revenue is recorded.

The following table sets forth information regarding operations and assets by reportable segment (in thousands).

Other income includes royalty income on corporate tradenames and other income not specifically identifiable to a segment.

Effective July 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This statement changed the accounting for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets from an amortization approach to an impairment-only approach. Using the SFAS No. 142 approach, we recorded a transitional goodwill impairment charge during the first quarter of fiscal 2003 of $950,000 ($581,000 net of tax), presented as a cumulative effect of accounting change. This charge related to our women’s accessories segment of products.

We may, with the approval of our board of directors, grant stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. We account for stock option grants using the intrinsic value method in accordance with the Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and, accordingly, we recognize no compensation expense for the stock option grants. The following table reflects the impact on net income if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,” to stock-based employee compensation for the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002:

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and has been determined as if we had accounted for our stock options under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for fiscal 2004 and 2003: dividend yield of 1.0% for 2004 and 0.0% for 2003; expected volatility of .238% and .270% for 2004 and 2003, respectively; a risk-free interest rate of 5.25% for fiscal 2004 and 2003; and an expected holding period of seven years. Using these assumptions for the options granted during the first six months of fiscal 2004 and 2003, the weighted-average grant date fair value of such options ranged from $3.83 to $5.27 for each period.

The Black-Scholes valuation models are used in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility and the average life of options. Because our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of our stock options.

On October 15, 2003, our directors were awarded a total of 3,720 shares of restricted stock. The shares will become fully vested on October 15, 2006, with one-third of the shares vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant. Generally, upon the death, disability, resignation, or termination of a director, that director’s shares become fully vested. These shares of stock, while not transferable, bear rights of ownership, including voting and dividend rights, during the vesting period. Unearned compensation in the amount of $58,000 was recorded during the quarter ended December 31, 2003. Compensation expense of approximately $19,000 was recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2004.

On July 1, 2003, our executive officers were awarded a total of 22,800 shares of restricted stock. The shares will become fully vested on July 1, 2006. These shares of stock, while not transferable, bear rights of ownership, including voting and dividend rights, during the three year vesting period. There are no performance requirements related to vesting, only continued employment through the vesting date. Unearned compensation in the amount of $275,000 was recorded during the quarter ended September 30, 2003. Compensation expense of approximately $23,000 per quarter will be recorded through June 30, 2006.

Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2002

The following table illustrates sales and gross margin data from our reportable segments for the three and six months ended December 31, 2003 compared to the same period last year.

	Total		34.4	%		35.1	%		34.0	%		34.9	%

For the three-month period ended December 31, 2003, net sales decreased 3.1% to $64,159,000 compared to net sales of $66,222,000 for the same period last year. Net sales of men’s accessories increased 3.8% for the three- month period ended December 31, 2003 compared to the same period last year. Increased sales of both belts and small leather goods contributed to the higher sales in the men’s division for the quarter. Net sales of women’s accessories decreased 9.1% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2003 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was attributable to lower fashion trend accessory sales as well as lower replenishment orders of women’s mass merchant accessories due to soft retail sales during the Christmas holiday season. Given the trend experienced during the second quarter of fiscal 2004, we anticipate that similar sales conditions will continue during the third quarter of fiscal 2004. For the six-month period ending December 31, 2003, net sales increased 1.7% to $128,391,000 compared to net sales of $126,250,000 during the same period last year due to the strong sales performance by women’s mass merchant accessories during the first quarter. Men’s accessory sales increased 1.2% to $61,561,000 for the first six months of this year compared to $60,848,000 for the same period last year. Women’s accessory sales increased 2.2% to $66,830,000 compared to $65,402,000 for the same period last year.

Gross margins decreased by $1,148,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2003, or 4.9% compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of sales, gross margins decreased 0.7% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2003, compared to the same period last year. For the six-month period ended December 31, 2003, gross margins decreased $303,000, or 0.7%. As a percentage of sales, gross margins decreased 0.9% for the period ended December 31, 2003, compared to the same period last year. The overall decrease was due to a greater sales mix weighted towards men’s and women’s mass merchant accessories during the two quarters of fiscal 2004, higher than anticipated customer allowances, and increased direct sales, which have lower than historical gross margins, of women’s mass merchant fashion accessories. Although we anticipate gross margin percentages to approximate historical levels in future periods, any material changes in sales mix, such as higher mass merchant accessory sales or direct shipments could lower our gross margin percentages during a particular season.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2003, decreased by $1,401,000 compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2003 decreased by 1.4% compared to the same period last year. For the six-month period ended December 31, 2003, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 4.1% compared to the same period last year. The overall decrease was due to lower advertising expense and a bad debt recovery, occurring during the second quarter of fiscal 2004, of approximately $651,000 arising from a customer’s bankruptcy court settlement and payment of accounts receivable previously reserved by the company.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $58,000 and $100,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2003, compared to the same periods of the previous year. The decrease for both periods was due to certain intangibles that were fully amortized during the prior fiscal year having reached the end of their useful lives.

Interest expense for the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2003, decreased $128,000 and $148,000, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. This overall decrease primarily relates to lower debt levels as well as lower interest rates compared to the same periods last year.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2003, was 38.9%, which approximates the effective tax rate for last year.

Net income for the three-month period ended December 31, 2003, increased 7.8% to $3,909,000, or $.61 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3,627,000, or $.60 per diluted share for the same period last year. Net income, before the cumulative effect of an accounting change resulting from the adoption of SFAS No. 142, for the six-month period ended December 31, 2003, increased to $6,754,000, or $1.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6,022,000, or $1.01 per diluted share, for the same period last year. During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we recorded the cumulative effect of an accounting change resulting from the adoption of SFAS No. 142 in the amount of $581,000, net of tax. Net income including the cumulative effect of the accounting change was $5,441,000, or $.91 per diluted share.

For the six months ended December 31, 2003, our operating activities provided cash of $10,262,000 compared to $7,215,000 used in the same period last year. The increase in cash is due to lower inventory procurement for the third quarter of fiscal 2004 and the timing of cash receipts from customers. We anticipate the trend of positive cash flows to continue with seasonal uses of cash in the spring of fiscal 2004 as inventory procurement increases.

Capital expenditures totaled $1,569,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $460,000 from the same period last year. We attribute this increase to the implementation of a distribution software application during the first six months of fiscal 2004 as well as our acquisition of additional computer hardware. We anticipate that our capital expenditures for fiscal 2004 will approximate our capital investments of property and equipment for fiscal 2003. Capital commitments for the remainder of fiscal 2004 include additional expenditures related to implementation of software applications for our facilities in West Bend, Wisconsin, and Yoakum, Texas, and leasehold improvements to our Dallas distribution center and our corporate offices. We expect to fund such capital commitments from our working capital and by drawing on our existing credit facility.

Generally, our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and our credit facility. We have a $60,000,000 committed secured revolving credit facility, which can be used for seasonal borrowings and letters of credit. This credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets along with our subsidiaries’ assets and requires us to maintain certain financial covenants. If we do not comply with these covenants, our liquidity position could be adversely impacted. Our borrowings under our credit facility were $30,000,000 and $33,376,000 as of December 31, 2003, and 2002, respectively. As of December 31, 2003, we had approximately $24,124,000 of available credit under our credit facility and cash on hand of approximately $14,025,000.

We believe we have adequate financial resources and access to sufficient credit lines to satisfy our future working capital needs.

On January 31, 2004, we signed a new lease agreement on our corporate office facilities in Arlington, Texas. The lease term is for sixty-seven months and commits us to an average monthly rental expense of $51,654 per month. Except for the new office lease agreement, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in any contractual obligations, contingent liabilities, or commitments since June 30, 2003.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the use of estimates that affect the reported value of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for our conclusions. We continually evaluate the information used to make these estimates as the business and economic environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The use of estimates is pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements, but the accounting policies and estimates considered most critical are as follows:

We recognize revenue when merchandise is shipped and title to the goods has passed to the customer. We record allowances, including cash discounts, in-store customer allowances, cooperative advertising allowances and customer returns, at the time the revenue is recognized based upon historical experience, current trends in the retail industry and individual customer and product experience.

We perform periodic credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions and generally do not require collateral. Credit losses have historically been within management’s expectations.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (principally standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Cost includes materials, direct and indirect labor and factory overhead. Market, with respect to raw materials, is replacement cost; and for work-in-process and finished goods, it is net realizable value. If circumstances arise in which the market value of items in inventory declines below cost, an inventory markdown would be estimated and charged to expense in the period identified. We closely monitor fashion trend items and anticipate additional inventory markdowns if market indications in fashion trends justify further reserves.

We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, effective July 1, 2002. This statement changed the accounting for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets from an amortization approach to an impairment-only approach. The SFAS No. 142 goodwill impairment model is a two-step process. The first step compares the fair value of a reporting unit that has goodwill assigned to it to its carrying value. We estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using a discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than its carrying value, a second step is performed to compute the amount of goodwill impairment, if any. Step two allocates the fair value of the reporting unit to the reporting unit’s net assets other than goodwill. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its net assets other than goodwill is considered the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is then compared to the carrying value of its goodwill. Any shortfall represents the amount of goodwill impairment.

We continually evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining balance of goodwill may not be recoverable. In evaluating impairment, we estimate the sum of the expected future cash flows derived from such goodwill. Such evaluations for impairment are significantly impacted by estimates of future revenues, costs and expenses and other factors.

Our risk management policy, as it relates to derivative investments, is to mitigate, subject to market conditions, against interest rate risk. We do not enter into any derivative investments for the purpose of speculative investment. Our overall risk management philosophy is reevaluated as business conditions arise.

Historically, our quarterly sales and net income results are fairly consistent throughout the fiscal year, with a seasonal increase during the second quarter. Although this trend did not occur during the second quarter of fiscal 2004, we anticipate that future seasonality will return to historical trends.

Although our operations are affected by general economic trends, we do not believe inflation has had a material effect on our operating results.

Our website address is www.tandybrands.com. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed by our officers, directors and stockholders holding 10% or more of our common stock, and all amendments to those reports are available free of charge through our website, as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry in which we operate, management’s beliefs, and assumptions made by management. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We manage our exposure to changes in interest rates. On July 1, 2001, we entered into a three-year interest rate swap agreement with Wells Fargo HSBC Trade Bank, N.A., which expires on June 27, 2004, converting $30,000,000 of outstanding indebtedness from a variable to a fixed interest rate. The average receive rate is based on a 90-day LIBOR rate. At December 31, 2003, the receive and pay rates related to the interest rate swap were 1.16% and 5.60%, respectively. Interest differentials paid or received under the swap agreement are reflected as an adjustment to interest expense when paid. The fair value of the swap agreement at December 31, 2003 was approximately ($993,000) and is included in accrued liabilities. At December 31, 2003, the balance in other comprehensive income, related to the swap agreement, was approximately ($509,000). We do not expect the potential impact of market conditions on the fair value of our indebtedness to be material.

On June 26, 2003, we amended our committed secured revolving credit facility. The amendment to our credit facility extended the expiration of the agreement from June 27, 2004 to November 30, 2006. In conjunction with the amendment to our credit facility, we discontinued hedge accounting on the swap described above. We intend to hold the swap until maturity on June 27, 2004. The change in the fair value of the swap agreement and balance in other comprehensive income will be charged to interest expense over the term of the swap.

At December 31, 2003, our borrowings under our credit facility totaled $30,000,000, bearing a weighted-average interest rate of 2.62%

In addition to interest rate risk on our long-term debt, we are also exposed to market risk with respect to changes in the global price level of certain commodities used in the production of our products. We routinely purchase leather hides during the year for use in the manufacture of men’s belts. We also purchase a substantial amount of leather items from third-party suppliers. An unanticipated material increase in the market price of leather could increase the cost of these products to us and therefore have a negative effect on our results of operations.

We have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to material information (including information relating to our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our Exchange Act filings.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We held our 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on October 15, 2003. The stockholders voted on the re-election of Dr. James F. Gaertner, Mr. Gene Stallings, and Mr. Roger R. Hemminghaus to our board of directors to serve as Class I directors for a three-year term expiring at the 2006 annual meeting of stockholders, or until each of their successors is elected and qualified. The stockholders re-elected all three directors to our board of directors. The following table indicates the number of votes cast for each director, the number of votes withheld and the number of broker non-votes with respect to the election of Dr. Gaertner, Mr. Stallings, and Mr. Hemminghaus.

A list of exhibits filed as part of this report is set forth in the Exhibit Index, which immediately precedes such exhibits and is incorporated herein by reference.
