NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Accounting Principles
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
The preparation of our financial statements 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. Such differences could have a material impact on our future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2007 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Historically our first and second quarter sales and net income reflect a seasonal increase compared to the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. Consequently, operating results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended June 30, 2008.
Note 2 — Impact Of Recently Issued Accounting Standard
As of July 1, 2007 we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” (“FIN No. 48”), a clarification of the accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Accordingly a $1,225,000 liability was recognized with a corresponding reduction in retained earnings. The effect of FIN No. 48 on the fiscal 2008 first quarter was not material. Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are included in our income tax provision.
Note 3 — Credit Arrangements
Our $75 million unsecured revolving credit facility requires the maintenance of certain financial covenants which, if not met, could adversely impact our liquidity. At September 30, 2007 we did not meet the leverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio covenants contained in the credit facility due to our pretax loss for the quarter which was attributable primarily to one of our largest customers placing fewer replenishment orders and discontinuing a fashion belt program. The lenders have granted a waiver of compliance with these financial covenants. In connection with the waiver, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement which limits borrowings under the Credit Agreement to a maximum of $30 million at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5% and a commitment fee of 37.5 basis points on the unused commitment balance until we deliver to the lenders the covenant certificates required by the Credit Agreement for the quarter ending December 31, 2007 reflecting no default or event of default at that date. It is possible we may not be in compliance with these financial covenant ratios at December 31, 2007 which could require a further waiver or amendment of the credit facility.
At September 30, 2007 we had outstanding borrowings under the credit facility of $13 million bearing interest at 5.88% and outstanding letters of credit used in conjunction with merchandise procurement totaling $2 million. Principal payments are due on the facility’s expiration date; however, the outstanding borrowings have been classified as a current liability consistent with the fiscal 2007 year-end classification. The effect of a 1% increase or decrease in the interest rate on the amount of our notes payable outstanding at September 30, 2007 could lower or increase our annual pretax operating results by $130,000.

Table of Contents

The credit facility is guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries, except our Canadian subsidiary. It permits the payment of dividends and does not require us to enter into an interest rate swap agreement against our borrowings under the facility.
We also have a $1 million Canadian line of credit secured by a letter of credit from a U.S. bank. At June 30, 2007 and September 30, 2007 there were no borrowings under this line of credit. At September 30, 2007 we had credit availability under our credit facility and our Canadian line of credit as follows (in thousands):

Letters of credit outstanding
    2,038

    1,004  
 
     
Credit available
  $ 14,962  
 
     
Note 4 — Income Taxes
Our estimated annual effective income tax rate for fiscal 2008 is 39.4%, an increase over the 38.9% tax expense rate for the first quarter last year primarily due to higher effective state income tax rates. The income tax benefit provision for the quarter was reduced by $38,000, net of income taxes, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits of uncertain tax positions resulting in the net tax benefit being 38.5% of our pretax loss.
The following presents information about our unrecognized tax benefits of uncertain tax positions (in thousands).

While it is reasonably possible a current examination of state income tax returns for the fiscal years 1999 through 2003 involving uncertain tax positions could be resolved within the next twelve months through settlement or administrative proceedings, the potential impact cannot be estimated at this time. Otherwise, the majority of our state and local income tax returns are no longer subject to examination for years before 2003. US federal income tax returns have been examined through fiscal 2003 and Canadian income tax returns are no longer subject to examination for years before 1999.

Note 7 — Disclosures About Segments Of Our Business And Related Information
We sell our products under national brand names and private labels through all major retail distribution channels in the United States and Canada, including mass merchants, national chain stores, department stores, men’s and women’s specialty stores, catalog retailers, grocery stores, drug stores, golf pro shops, sporting goods stores, and the United States military retail exchange operations. We 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, gifts, wallets and other small leather goods, neckwear, suspenders, and sporting goods; and (2) women’s accessories, consisting of belts, small leather goods, handbags, and gifts. General corporate expenses and depreciation and amortization related to assets recorded in our corporate accounting records are allocated to each segment based on the respective segment’s asset base. Management measures each segment based upon income or loss before income taxes utilizing accounting policies consistent in all material respects with those described in Note 2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. No inter-segment revenue is recorded.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Item 2 should be read in the context of the information included in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
OVERVIEW
We are a leading designer and marketer of branded men’s, women’s and children’s accessories, including belts, small leather goods, and gift accessories. Our product line also includes handbags, sporting goods, and neckwear. Our merchandise is marketed under a broad portfolio of nationally recognized licensed and proprietary brand names, including DOCKERS®, LEVI’S®, LEVI STRAUSS SIGNATURE™, JONES NEW YORK®, TOTES®, ROLFS®, HAGGAR®, WOOLRICH®, CANTERBURY®, PRINCE GARDNER®, PRINCESS GARDNER®, AMITY®, COLETTA®, STAGG®, ACCESSORY DESIGN GROUP®, TIGER®, ETON®, SURPLUS®, EILEEN WEST™, GOODYEAR™, GENO D’LUCCA™, as well as private brands for major retail customers. We sell our products through all major retail distribution channels throughout the United States and Canada, including mass merchants, national chain stores, 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.
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 were $39.5 million compared to $57.2 million in the same period last year with $12.0 million of the decline being related to fewer sales of men’s and women’s belts. Our gross margin as a percent of sales for the quarter was 32.5%, 4.3 percentage points lower than the first quarter last year. Our selling, general and administrative, depreciation and amortization, and interest expenses this year were all slightly lower. Overall, we incurred a $2.6 million operating loss and a $1.7 million net loss ($0.25 per share) in the current period. In the first quarter last year, our operating income was $5.0 million and net income was $2.8 million ($0.41 per diluted share).
The net loss for the quarter resulted in our noncompliance with two of the financial covenant ratios of our credit facility as described in Note 3 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Our lenders have granted a waiver with respect to these financial covenants ratios and we have entered into an amendment to the credit agreement. It is possible we may not be in compliance with these financial covenant ratios at December 31, 2007 which could require a further waiver or amendment of the credit facility.

Net sales of $30.2 million by our men’s accessories segment in the fiscal 2008 first quarter were $7.2 million below the $37.4 million in fiscal 2007. One of the largest customers of our men’s accessories segment curtailed replenishment orders as part of its inventory management program resulting in $5.5 million fewer belt sales during the first quarter. We believe the effects of the inventory management program, which has continued in our second quarter, are affecting other suppliers as well. Net sales of men’s gift accessories were almost $1 million lower as the shipping of some orders was shifted from the first to the second quarter.
The women’s accessories segment had net sales of $9.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $19.8 million in fiscal 2007. The lower sales were primarily attributable to a customer discontinuing a fashion belt program ($5.0 million) and fewer sales of small leather goods ($1.8 million) and handbags ($1.7 million) resulting from competitive market pressures related to the allocation of retail space to accessories and continued weakening of women’s fashion accessory trends. In the first quarter last year our women’s accessories segment sold approximately $1 million of products which we discontinued in fiscal 2006.
Gross margins were 32.5% and 36.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and 2007, respectively. The men’s accessories segment margins were 30.8% this year and 38.2% last year. The 7.4% percentage point decline was primarily attributable to clearance sales of belts and small leather goods. The women’s accessories segment margins increased to 38.1% this year from 34.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 primarily because lower margins on fashion belts sold to one of our largest customers last year negatively impacted the segment’s overall gross margin percentage. These higher gross margins also reflect the benefit of our exit from non-core women’s product categories in fiscal 2006 in order to focus on more profitable product lines.
Total direct shipment sales and margins were almost half of the fiscal 2007 amounts and the margin percentage was slightly lower; however, they had little impact on year-to-year comparisons. Direct shipments have lower gross margins because these goods are shipped from our suppliers to our customers and are not handled in our distribution centers, thereby reducing the general and administrative costs related to the sales. 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 (“SG&A”) of $14.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 were slightly lower than the $14.8 million in fiscal 2007. Lower costs included the benefit of changes in the market value of retirement benefit investments ($181,000) and reduced product development, travel, and payroll expenses (approximately $100,000 each). Restricted stock awards increased SG&A over the same period list year by $243,000. Interest expense was less due to lower average amounts borrowed during the respective quarters.
Our effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and the effect of adopting the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” (“FIN No. 48”) as of July 1, 2007 are discussed in Notes 2 and 4 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

SEASONALITY
Historically our quarterly sales and operating results reflect a seasonal increase during the first and second quarters of our fiscal year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operating cash flows for the first quarter of both years were negative (2007 — $7.6 million; 2006 - $4.1 million) as inventories for shipment in the second quarter increased (2007 — $3.7 million; 2006 — $8.0 million) and accounts receivable increased (2007 — $1.9 million; 2006 — $12.6 million) from sales in the latter part of the first quarter which are not collected until later in the year. The lower amount of cash used by operating activities last year is attributable to increases in accounts payable, an operating profit, and an income tax refund. Capital expenditures this year were nominal while last year we were completing an inventory management project and improving other computer related functions.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities and our credit facility which we believe will provide adequate financial resources for our future working capital needs. Information about the credit facility, including a waiver of compliance with certain financial covenant ratios and an amendment, is incorporated herein by reference to Note 3 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
During fiscal 2008 we declared the following cash dividends:
             
            Dividend
Declaration Date   Record Date   Payable Date   Per Share
August 15, 2007
  September 28, 2007   October 19, 2007   $0.04
October 29, 2007   December 31, 2007   January 18, 2008   $0.04
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS
There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in any of our contractual obligations, contingent liabilities, or commitments since June 30, 2007 other than the adoption of the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” (“FIN No. 48”) as of July 1, 2007. We are unable to reasonably estimate when cash payments, if any, of the $2,050,000 liability recognized for uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2007 will occur, but it is reasonably possible a current examination of state income tax returns for the fiscal years 1999 through 2003 involving uncertain tax positions could be resolved within the next twelve months through settlement or administrative proceedings.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2007 other than the adoption of the provisions of FIN No. 48 as discussed in Notes 2 and 4 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are subject to interest rate risk on our notes payable. The effect of a 1% increase or decrease in the interest rate on the amount outstanding at September 30, 2007 could lower or increase our annual pretax operating results by $130,000. We do not expect the impact of market conditions on the fair value of our indebtedness to be material.
We are exposed to market risk in the event our suppliers are not able to manage their risks associated with unanticipated significant increases in the prices of leather and other commodities used in the production of our products. If we are unable to contractually or otherwise mitigate the pass-through of unanticipated cost increases, our operating results could be materially impacted.
We are exposed to the effects of changing currency exchange rates on the cost of products we purchase from foreign manufacturers; however, the risks and benefits of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations historically have not been material to our operations since we generally have negotiated and settled agreements for the procurement of our products in US dollars.

ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of fiscal 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our Chief Financial Officer accepted a position with another company and resigned effective October 23, 2007. Our Corporate Controller has been appointed Principal Accounting Officer.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1A — RISK FACTORS
No material changes have occurred to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2007. Adoption of the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” (“FIN No. 48”) as of July 1, 2007 increased the risks associated with the estimation of our income tax provisions. We are subject to US federal income tax and taxes in state, local, and Canadian jurisdictions. Provisions for income tax expense or benefits are recorded based on our estimates of future payments, including taxes, interest, and penalties for uncertain tax positions not meeting the more-likely-than-not criterion of FIN No. 48. At any one time, many income tax returns are subject to audit, the results of which may affect our estimates. Additionally, our effective tax rate may be materially impacted from time-to-time by changes in the level and mix of earnings, or by tax law or accounting rule changes.
ITEM 2 — UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The following provides information about repurchases of shares of common stock made by us during the quarter ended September 30, 2007. Of the total shares purchased, 4,551 were withheld from employees’ restricted stock awards for employment taxes due when the stock vested.

Item 5 — OTHER INFORMATION
At September 30, 2007 the Company did not meet the leverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio covenants contained in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement among the Company, as the Borrower, Wells Fargo HSBC Trade Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent and as a Lender, and Certain Financial Institutions, as Lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as Arranger as of September 7, 2006 (the “Credit Agreement”) due to the Company’s pretax loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The lenders have granted a waiver of compliance with these financial covenants. In connection with the waiver, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement which limits borrowings under the Credit Agreement to a maximum of $30 million at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5% and a commitment fee of 37.5 basis points on the unused commitment balance until the Company delivers to the lenders the covenant certificates required by the Credit Agreement for the quarter ending December 31, 2007 reflecting no default or event of default at that date.
The Limited Waiver and First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibits 4.4 and 10.33 to this Quarterly Report.
