NOTES TO UNAUDITED 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 8-03 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. Amounts related to costs for a third party provider to assemble and package gift products have been reclassified from cost of goods sold to the selling, general and administrative expense line item in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and business segment information in the fiscal 2012 financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2013 presentation.

The preparation of our consolidated 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 we believe 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 change, including evaluation of events subsequent to the end of the quarter through the financial statement issuance date. 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, 2012 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 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Historically, our first and second quarter sales and operating results reflect a seasonal increase compared to the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. Sales and operating results for the nine months of fiscal 2013 and 2012 were not consistent with historical patterns due to higher than expected returns of unsold inventories and promotional activity by certain of our retail partners, which drove higher than expected sales concessions and reduced fiscal 2013 sales, and implementation of our restructuring plan announced March 18, 2013.

Note 2 - Fair Value Measurements

We measure fair values using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 inputs), quoted prices for similar instruments in active or inactive markets, or other directly-observable factors (Level 2 inputs), or inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement (Level 3 inputs). Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash, trade receivables and payables, and our credit facility. The carrying values of cash and trade receivables and payables are considered to be representative of their respective fair values. Our credit facility, which was entered into effective August 25, 2011 (and most recently amended April 11, 2013), bears interest at floating market interest rates; therefore, we believe the fair value of amounts borrowed approximates the carrying value. At March 31, 2013, June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, no other material financial assets or liabilities were measured at fair value.

Note 3 – Restructuring Plan Announced March 18, 2013

Our second quarter fiscal 2013 financial results for our gifts segment were severely impacted by lower than expected consumer point-of-sale purchases and retailer promotional activity in December 2012, which was higher than both our expectations and historical levels. These events were primarily driven by lack of consumer acceptance of two new products, unfavorable placement of our products in certain retailers, and lower than expected consumer purchases in our categories. As a result, our gifts segment net sales and gross margins were significantly lower than expectations and historical results. This caused our December profits to fall, resulting in the previously-announced violation of our monthly minimum fixed charge coverage ratio within our credit agreement. Additionally, the performance of the gifts segment products resulted in higher than expected sales concessions, such as allowing certain retailers to return certain unsold products, which also reduced net sales, gross margins and accounts receivable, while increasing inventories. Each of these events unfavorably impacted our liquidity forecasts. As a result of the covenant violation and liquidity restraints, we decided to implement a restructuring plan.

On March 18, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a broad restructuring plan (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to which we will reduce the complexity of the business through paring down the customer base we serve, focusing on the most profitable belts, small leather goods, and gifts products, streamlining our operations and further reducing operating expenses.

The primary components of the Restructuring include: (1) exiting under-performing product offerings which do not support our primary customer base and do not represent strategic components of our portfolio, (2) reducing corporate employee headcount by 32%, which occurred on March 18, 2013, (3) recognizing charges for certain intangible assets impaired as a result of our decision to immediately cease production and development of products under certain proprietary trade names and trade brands, and (4) accelerating the recognition of future expenses under certain contractual obligations. In connection with the foregoing, we currently expect to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $12.5 million to $12.8 million in fiscal 2013, which include (a) a non-cash inventory impairment charge of $6.7 million, (b) employee severance costs of $0.6 million, (c) non-cash intangible impairment charges of $2.6 million and (d) other charges of approximately $2.6 million to $2.9 million.

We recognized an inventory impairment charge of $6.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. In the third quarter of fiscal 2013, we recognized an intangible impairment charge of $2.6 million, severance charges of $0.6 million, charges related to the recognition of expenses under contractual liabilities of $1.6 million that we otherwise would have recorded over the life of the contract and related revenues attributable to those contracts, and other charges of $0.8 million. We expect to recognize the remaining charges ($0.2 million to $0.5 million) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. Approximately $2.7 million to $2.9 million of the estimated charges are likely to result in future cash expenditures. We expect the restructuring plan to be substantially complete by June 30, 2013 and expect to recognize the remaining cash expenditures over the next 12 months.

The following table presents the movement in the severance liability and other restructuring costs (in thousands):

	Severance			Other			Total
Restructuring charges, January 1, 2013	$	-		$	-		$	-
Charges		649			1,926			2,575
Cash spent		(49	)		(289	)		(338	)
Restructuring charges, March 31, 2013	$	600		$	1,637		$	2,237

Note 4 – Inventory Write-down and Intangibles and Held for Sale Impairments

Due to (1) higher than expected holiday 2012 sales allowances and higher returns of unsold inventories in our gifts segment in December 2012; (2) the violation of the fixed charge covenant in our credit agreement with our senior lender; and (3) the Restructuring announced in March 2013 in which we made the decision to exit low-volume products and emphasize our focus on licensed products and high volume private label products, we concluded there was a need to generate immediate liquidity by selling returned, exited and slow moving inventories at prices discounted deeply below historical averages. As a result of our determination to accelerate the liquidation of this inventory at deeply discounted prices, we recorded a $6.7 million noncash inventory write-down ($4.9 million and $1.8 million related to the accessories and gifts segments, respectively), which is included as an inventory write-down in our unaudited consolidated statement of operations in the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The inventory was marked down to our best estimate of the market value we anticipated realizing based on actual close-out orders received for the inventory and our experiences selling through inventory liquidation channels in the past, including in certain cases, an incremental write-down compared to our historical experiences to reflect the need to immediately liquidate the effected inventory. At March 31, 2013, the carrying value of impacted inventories was $3.5 million. We expect to sell off all impacted inventory at approximately its current net book value by July 31, 2013. Sales and gross margins of underperforming products were $1.3 million and $0.4 million and $5.7 million and $1.7 million, in the three and nine months of fiscal 2013, respectively. We do not expect any additional material write-offs related to the sell-off of this inventory.

Due to the Restructuring and our decision to cease production and development of products under certain proprietary trade names and trade brands, we tested our definite and indefinite-lived intangible assets for recoverability during the third quarter of fiscal 2013 using fair value methods, such as discounted cash flows (indefinite-lived intangible) and undiscounted cash flows (definite-lived intangibles). As a result of the impairment tests, we recorded a $2.3 million impairment charge (accessories segment), which was included in the intangibles and held for sale impairments line in our unaudited consolidated statement of operations in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Due to our strategy to exit certain low-volume and unprofitable products and transition from proprietary to licensed brands, we determined that the life for our indefinite-lived trade brand intangible asset was no longer indefinite, and therefore the intangible asset will be amortized over the remaining period in which it is expected to contribute to cash flows, which is three years. The net book value of this trade brand at March 31, 2013 was approximately $282,000.

We recorded a $0.4 million impairment charge in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 on a held for sale property, which is included in the intangibles and held for sale impairments line in our unaudited consolidated statement of operations in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013. Due to the length of time our last held for sale property has been on the market and our current liquidity forecasts, we decided to market the property below its carrying value.

Note 5 - Business Segment Information

We sell our products through all major retail distribution channels throughout North America, including, without limitation, mass merchants, national chain stores, department stores, specialty stores, catalog retailers, golf pro shops, sporting goods stores, and the retail exchange operations of the United States military. Our business segments are based on product categories: (1) accessories, which include belts, small leather goods and bags, and (2) gifts. Each segment is measured by management based on income consisting of net sales less cost of goods sold, product distribution expenses, and royalties utilizing accounting policies consistent in all material respects with those described in Note 2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. No inter-segment revenue is recorded. Assets, related depreciation and amortization, and a portion of our selling, general and administrative expenses are not allocated to the segments.

The following table presents operating information by segment and reconciliation of segment (loss) income to our consolidated operating loss (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31						Nine Months Ended March 31

(1)	Accessories segment income for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 includes inventory write-downs of $4.9 million. Excluding these write-downs, accessories segment income would have been $11.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

(2)	Gifts segment (loss) income for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 includes inventory write-downs of $1.8 million. Excluding these write-downs, gifts segment income would have been $1.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Note 6 – Credit Facility

We have a $35 million credit facility, which expires in August 2015. On April 11, 2013, we, along with our Canadian subsidiary, and our lender entered into a Seventh Amendment to Credit and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, our lender formally waived our failure to satisfy a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant for the fiscal months ending December 31, 2012, January 31, 2013 and February 28, 2013, eliminated this fixed charge coverage ratio covenant going forward, and extended the time period to deliver certain post-close deliverables and title matters related to real property. In addition, the Amendment contains certain amendments to the credit agreement, including, but not limited to: (1) modifications to certain definitions used in the credit agreement, including reduction in the minimum excess availability requirement from $2.7 million to $2.0 million; (2) an adjustment to the capital expenditures cap for the period between the execution and maturity dates; (3) the payment of a $200,000 amendment and waiver fee; (4) an immediate payment of outstanding ad valorem taxes; (5) the continued engagement of a Chief Restructuring Officer at the lender’s discretion; and (6) the requirement to pay the indebtedness in full and terminate the agreement by May 31, 2013 or raise additional cash equity in the amount of $10 million or more.

While we can provide no assurances at this time with regard to our ability to successfully raise capital, we have been seeking additional sources of capital and have signed non-binding term sheets with lenders to replace our existing credit facility. We believe several sources of working capital are available that could be utilized, either in combination with, or in substitution for, our senior facility. Included among these sources are traditional senior financing, mezzanine financing as well as early pay arrangements with major customers and purchase order financing arrangements for our gifts segment. If we are unable to raise capital our operations could be adversely affected which could negatively impact our ability to obtain inventories on acceptable terms and operate our business, and we could be forced to file for protection under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

At March 31, 2013, we had $1.5 million borrowing availability ($4.2 million excluding the minimum excess availability requirement of $2.7 million) based on our accounts receivable and inventory levels, outstanding letters of credit totaling $230,000, and $10.0 million outstanding borrowings under the credit facility. Borrowings and letters of credit bear interest at either the daily three-month LIBOR rate plus 5.75% or a fixed LIBOR rate for three months plus 5.75%.

The credit facility is guaranteed by substantially all of our subsidiaries and is secured by substantially all of our assets and those of our subsidiaries. The credit facility contains certain negative covenants and requires a minimum availability covenant, which, if not met, could adversely impact our liquidity. The credit facility also limits our ability to engage in certain actions without the lender’s consent, including, repurchasing our common stock, entering into certain mergers or consolidations, guaranteeing or incurring certain debt, engaging in certain stock or asset acquisitions, paying dividends, making certain investments in other entities, prepaying debt, and making certain property transfers. In addition, the credit facility contains customary representations and warranties and we have agreed to certain affirmative covenants, including reporting requirements. We were in compliance with all of our covenants as of March 31, 2013.

The maximum line of credit under the credit facility, which includes the revolver and letters of credit, is $35 million. The credit facility is asset-based and the available line of credit may be limited pursuant to certain borrowing base limitations, including (1) the amount of certain of our eligible accounts, (2) the amount of our eligible accounts with our largest customer, (3) the value of our eligible inventory, which is more specifically determined in part based on specific periods during our fiscal year, and (4) the amount of our borrowing base reserve.

Note 7 - Long-Term Incentive Award

On July 1, 2012, we issued 950,000 performance units, comprised 50% of cash and 50% of phantom shares of our common stock, to certain employees. Each unit has a $1.00 assigned value and the number of phantom shares of common stock attributable to each award was determined based on the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, which was $1.40 per share at the close of trading on that day. The units earned during the performance cycle (July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2014) vary from 0% to 200% of the units awarded based on our basic earnings per share for each of the two fiscal years ending June 30, 2014, excluding the effects of accounting principles changes, extraordinary items, recognized capital gains and losses and, as determined by our Board, one-time, non-operating items. Assuming continued employment, if, at the end of the two-year performance cycle, at least the threshold performance level has been achieved, the performance units will cliff vest and, to the extent earned, will generally be settled in cash (if shares are available under our benefit plans, the Board may, in its discretion, settle the phantom shares attributable to an award in shares of our common stock). Notwithstanding the foregoing, employees vest in a portion of units earned based on the number of fiscal years employed during the cycle upon death, disability, or normal (age 65) or early (age 55 and 15 years service) retirement and, upon a change of control, employees vest in 100% of the units awarded. As of March 31, 2013, we expect none of the 950,000 units granted to vest.

Note 8 - Income Taxes

The following presents components of our income tax expense (benefit) (in thousands):

At March 31, 2013 we had federal income tax net operating loss carryovers of approximately $55.7 million expiring in 2029 through 2031. Our deferred tax valuation allowance was approximately $29.2 million.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, $161,000 of the liability previously recorded for uncertain state tax positions was released from the reserve as it no longer failed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold.

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 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

BUSINESS

We are a leading designer and marketer of branded men’s, women’s and children’s accessories, including belts, gifts, small leather goods and bags. Our merchandise is marketed under a broad portfolio of nationally recognized licensed and proprietary brand names, including SPERRY TOP-SIDER®, ELIE TAHARI®, EDDIE BAUER®, TOTES®, MISS ME®, THE SHARPER IMAGE®, WOLVERINE®, HAGGAR®, ARNOLD PALMER®, DOCKERS®, SAMSONITE®, AMERICAN TOURISTER®, KODIAK®, TERRA®, ROLFS®, AMITY®, CANTERBURY®, PRINCE GARDNER®, PRINCESS GARDNER®, CHAMBERS BELT COMPANY®, ABSOLUTELY FRESH®, SURPLUS®, as well as private brands for major retail customers. We sell our products through all major retail distribution channels throughout North America, including, without limitation, mass merchants, national chain stores, department stores, specialty stores, catalog retailers, golf pro shops, sporting goods stores, and the retail exchange operations of the United States military. We were incorporated as a Delaware corporation on November 1, 1990.

Significant Events

On April 11, 2013, we obtained a waiver from our lender for violation of the fixed charge coverage covenant under our credit facility and failure to deliver certain post-close deliverables and title matters related to real property in a timely manner. We were in compliance with all other covenants as of March 31, 2013. Under the terms of the amendment, to avoid a default under the credit agreement, we are required to either (1) pay the indebtedness in full and terminate the agreement by May 31, 2013 or (2) raise additional cash equity in the amount of $10 million or more. While we can provide no assurances at this time, we believe we will be able to raise sufficient additional or alternative sources of capital in the near term to avoid a default under the credit agreement. We have signed non-binding term sheets with lenders to replace our existing credit facility.

On March 18, 2013, the Board approved a broad restructuring plan (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to which we will reduce the complexity of the business through paring down the customer base we serve, focusing on the most profitable belts, small leather goods, and gifts products, streamlining our operations and further reducing operating expenses. We expect the Restructuring to reduce future operating expenses by $6.0 million to $7.0 million on an annualized basis, beginning in fiscal 2014.

The primary components of the Restructuring include: (1) exiting under-performing product offerings which do not support the major customer base and do not represent strategic components of our portfolio, (2) reducing corporate employee headcount by 32% on March 18, 2013, (3) recognizing charges for certain identifiable intangible assets impaired as a result of our decision to immediately cease production and development of products under certain proprietary trade names and trade brands, and (4) charges related to the recognition of expenses under contractual liabilities that we otherwise would have recorded over the life of the contract and related revenues attributable to those contracts.

In the first half of fiscal 2013, we executed a new license agreement with brands Samsonite® and American Tourister®. Under the terms of the agreements, we will distribute gifts among a wide array of channels including, but not limited to, national retail and department stores, clubs, and mass merchants. Revenues from these brands are expected to benefit the gifts segment results in the second half of calendar 2013.

	$	3,797		$	3,833		$	14,261		$	13,623

(1)	Accessories gross margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 includes inventory write-downs of $4.9 million. Excluding these write-downs, accessories gross margin would have been $19.1 million, or 32.0%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

(2)	Gifts gross margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 includes inventory write-downs of $1.8 million. Excluding these write-downs, gifts gross margin would have been $7.7 million, or 22.8%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Net Sales and Gross Margins

Our fiscal 2013 third quarter net sales were $19.6 million, which was $4.3 million, or 18%, lower than the prior year. Net sales for our accessories segment were $18.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, which was $3.9 million, or 17%, lower than in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, primarily due to lower levels of replenishment orders by our largest customer, lower sales of previously exited small leather goods products, and lower customer deductions in the prior year, partially offset by new sales under our Eddie Bauer® license. Gifts segment net sales of $1.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were $420,000, or 25% lower than in the prior year, primarily due to longer times to process and re-sell the higher than expected levels of holiday season returns in the current year.

Our net sales for the nine months of fiscal 2013 were $93.4 million, which was $2.7 million, or 3%, lower than the comparable prior year period. Accessories segment net sales of $59.7 million for the nine months of fiscal 2013 were $6.7 million, or 10%, lower than in the nine months of fiscal 2012 primarily due to lower sales of exited product categories, partially offset by higher levels of replenishment orders by one of our largest customers and new sales under our Eddie Bauer® license. Gifts segment net sales of $33.7 million for the nine months of fiscal 2013 were $4.0 million, or 14%, greater than in the prior year, primarily due to increased holiday 2012 shipments resulting from new programs, offset partially by higher sales concessions and holiday season returns.

Gross margins were 26.7% and 31.7% for the third quarters of fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively. Accessories segment margins decreased from 34.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 to 30.6% in the current fiscal year quarter primarily because of higher sales to close-out customers in the current year in connection with our restructuring plan and lower customer deductions in the prior year. The gifts segment margin decreased to (28.3%) from 2.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, primarily due to an increased mix of sales of returned holiday products to close-out customers.

Gross margins were 21.5% and 32.7% for the nine months of fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively. Accessories segment margins decreased from 33.9% in the nine months of fiscal 2012 to 23.8% in the current fiscal year, primarily because of the inventory write-off, lower sales of previously written-down inventory and higher customer deductions. The gifts segment margin decreased to 17.4% in the nine months of 2013 from 30.0% in the comparable prior year period due to the inventory write-off, higher freight costs, higher sales to our higher volume, lower margin customers, and higher customer deductions. Gross margins were also affected by more customer-direct shipments in the nine months of fiscal 2013 compared to the nine months of fiscal 2012, since these shipments carry lower gross margins due to being shipped directly from our suppliers to our customers (and not handled in our distribution centers), reducing the associated selling, general and administrative costs.

Operating Expenses

Total segment operating expenses were flat in the third quarter and $638,000 higher in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 when compared to comparable prior year periods, primarily due to higher variable distribution costs, facilities, selling costs and royalties in the gifts segment, offset by lower variable distribution costs in the accessories segment.

Total selling, general and administrative expenses of $7.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were $2.2 million, or 23%, lower than the third quarter of fiscal 2012 ($9.8 million). The decreases were primarily due to a lower bad debt provision and lower compensation costs.

Total selling, general and administrative expenses of $27.7 million for the nine months of fiscal 2013 were $2.1 million, or 7%, lower than the nine months of fiscal 2012 ($29.8 million). The decreases were primarily due to a lower bad debt provision and lower variable distribution costs, offset by higher selling and royalty costs.

Interest and Taxes

Interest expense was virtually flat in the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to the same period in the prior year. Interest expense was higher in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 by $51,000 when compared to the prior year period due to interest expense associated with supply chain finance program in the current year period, offset by a $98,000 write-off of costs capitalized in connection with our previous credit facility in the prior year.

Information about our income taxes is incorporated herein by reference to Note 8 of the notes to unaudited consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

SEASONALITY

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities and our credit facility ($1.5 million borrowing availability at March 31, 2013 after reducing for the $2.7 million minimum excess availability requirement).

We believe several sources of working capital are available that could be utilized, either in combination with or in substitution for our senior facility. Included among these sources are traditional senior financing, mezzanine financing as well as early pay arrangements with major customers and purchase order financing arrangements for our gifts segment. If we are unable to raise capital our operations could be adversely affected, which would negatively impact our ability to obtain inventories on acceptable terms and operate our business, and we could be forced to file for protection under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

Furthermore, as part of our discussions with our current senior lender and as a result of a thorough examination of our business, on March 18, 2013 we announced that we have initiated a broad restructuring plan, which we believe will address in a significant way the issues that led to the covenant violations. We anticipate the Restructuring will reduce operating expenses by approximately $6.0 million to $7.0 million on an annualized basis beginning in fiscal 2014. Key elements of the restructuring plan include: (1) eliminating low volume products, (2) emphasizing licensed products and high volume private label products, (3) reducing the amount of risk in our gifts business by minimizing the level of sales concessions provided to customers, (4) reducing corporate headcount by approximately 32%, (5) closing or downsizing four of eight leased facilities, (6) outsourcing and relocating our gifts distribution from Texas to California, and (7) exiting development efforts with respect to and accelerated recognition of future expenses associated with non-core brands.

Information about our restructuring plan, inventory write-down and credit facility are incorporated herein by reference to Notes 3 to 6 of the notes to unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Nine months fiscal 2013 net cash from operating activities was $6.0 million lower than in the prior year, primarily driven by the following: (1) an increase in the net loss; (2) $2.6 million less cash generated from accounts receivable due to lower net sales in the current year; (3) $1.5 million lower current year inventory and other assets due to a $6.7 million non-cash inventory write-down, offset partially by higher inventories for new accessories programs with spring deliveries and higher levels of unsold gift products; and (4) $5.0 million higher accounts payable and accrued expenses due to higher inventory purchases in the current year period and later timing of payments to certain vendors in the current year.

Investing activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 primarily consisted of purchases of software to improve fill-rates with our largest customer and operating equipment to improve efficiency in our distribution facilities. Investing activities for the prior year primarily related to the purchases of operating equipment for our distribution facilities.

Financing activities included credit facility net repayments of $1.8 million and $10.4 million in the nine months of fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively. This $8.6 million decrease from the prior year was primarily due to (1) lower cash flows generated from operations and (2) the elimination of the requirement to maintain compensating balances with our Canadian subsidiary’s lender (which occurred upon the termination of the Canadian subsidiary’s credit facility) and the use of previously restricted cash to pay down our outstanding balance.

Financing activities include a $1.1 million change in cash overdrafts compared to the prior year period due to fewer outstanding payments owed to our suppliers on March 31, 2013.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no significant changes in the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012.
