NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) and have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  As applicable under such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted.  We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2012.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures.  Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Treasury stock — Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent reissuance of shares are credited or charged to paid-in capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance regarding testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment.  The amendments in this update will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Under these amendments, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the entity determines, based on qualitative assessment, that it is not more likely than not the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The amendments include a number of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this update will only impact our testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and will have no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  We are currently evaluating the impact of this updated guidance on our indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment testing process.

In September 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding testing goodwill for impairment.  The updated guidance will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test.  Under these amendments, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.  The amendments include a number of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment.  The adoption of this update at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows but may change the way we perform our annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In June 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income.  The updated guidance allows an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  The update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.  The update does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income.  In December 2011, the FASB issued a “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments of the Presentation of Reclassification of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  This defers only the changes that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of the financial statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented.  We present comprehensive income in a separate statement to the accompanying financial statements.  The adoption of this update had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(Unaudited)

In May 2011, the FASB updated the guidance regarding certain accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements.  The updated guidance amends U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) to create more commonality with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) by changing some of the wording used to describe requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  The adoption of this update at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2.  Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders is determined using the two-class method and is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders reflects the more dilutive earnings per common share amount calculated using the treasury stock method or the two-class method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders (in thousands, except per share amounts). Basic and diluted earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders are computed using the actual net earnings available to common shareholders and the actual weighted-average common shares outstanding rather than the rounded numbers presented within our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.  As a result, it may not be possible to recalculate earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.

For the three and six months ended July 28, 2012, 0.4 million and 0.3 million anti-dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share, respectively.  For the three and six months ended July 30, 2011, 0.3 million and 0.4 million anti-dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share, respectively.

3.  Debt

We have a revolving credit facility with a group of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for a total senior revolving credit facility of $200.0 million, with increases to $300.0 million upon additional lender commitments, that matures on January 26, 2016.  The Credit Agreement is secured by the stock of certain of our subsidiaries.  The Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBO rate, (ii) adjusted EURIBO rate, (iii) CDO rate, (iv) Canadian prime rate or (v) an alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or the adjusted LIBO rate for a one month period plus 1.0%).  Advances under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin up to 2.75%.  The Credit Agreement also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit which range from 2.00% to 2.75%, and a fee on unused commitments which ranges from 0.35% to 0.50%.  As of July 28, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain certain financial ratios.  The restrictive provisions in the Credit Agreement reflect an overall covenant structure that is generally representative of a commercial loan made to an investment-grade company.  Our debt, however, is not rated and we have not sought, and are not seeking, a rating of our debt.  We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement as of July 28, 2012.

We utilize letters of credit primarily to secure inventory purchases and as collateral for workers compensation claims.  At July 28, 2012, letters of credit totaling approximately $20.8 million were issued and outstanding.  Borrowings available under our Credit Agreement at July 28, 2012 were $179.2 million.

We repurchase shares of our common stock primarily through open market transactions under a $150.0 million share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors in January 2011.

During the first six months of fiscal 2011, 1,822,340 shares at a cost of $48.8 million were repurchased at an average price per share of $26.78 under the January 2011 authorization.  During the first six months of fiscal 2012, 1,121,484 shares at a cost of $41.0 million were repurchased at an average price per share of $36.59 under the January 2011 authorization.  At July 28, 2012, the remaining balance available under the January 2011 authorization was $45.2 million.

During the six months ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, 7,041 shares and 7,132 shares, respectively, at a cost of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, were repurchased at an average price per share of $37.28 and $27.77, respectively, in private transactions to satisfy tax withholding obligations arising upon the vesting of certain restricted stock.

8.     Share-Based Compensation Plans

We maintain several equity plans under which we may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units and performance based awards to full-time key employees and non-employee directors.  We account for share-based awards in accordance with the FASB standard regarding share-based payments, which requires the compensation cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. The amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the instrument issued and is recognized over the vesting period.  Share-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended July 28, 2012 was $4.2 million and $8.3 million, respectively.  Share-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended July 30, 2011 was $3.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

Stock Options

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended July 28, 2012:

	Shares		Weighted-  Average  Exercise  Price
Outstanding at January 28, 2012	1,314,422		$	22.61
Granted	100,349		40.13
Exercised	(143,298	)	18.65
Forfeited	(7,000	)	22.72
Expired	(322	)	17.62
Outstanding at July 28, 2012	1,264,151		$	24.45
Exercisable at July 28, 2012	703,761		$	21.76

The weighted-average grant date fair value of the 100,349 stock options granted during the six months ended July 28, 2012 was $17.21 per share. The following table summarizes the weighted average assumptions used to fair value stock options at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the six months ended July 28, 2012.

	For the Six Months Ended July 28, 2012
Risk-free interest rate	1.09	%
Expected lives	5.0 years
Dividend yield	2.07	%
Expected volatility	58.67	%

The assumptions presented in the table above represent the weighted average of the applicable assumptions used to fair value stock options.  The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  The expected lives represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding after their grant date.  The dividend yield is based on the average of the annual dividend divided by the market price of our common stock at the time of declaration. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock.

As of  July 28, 2012, we have unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested stock options of approximately $5.4 million which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Discount Plan (“ESDP”) allows employees to authorize after-tax payroll deductions to be used for the purchase of up to 2,137,500 shares of our common stock at 85% of the lesser of the fair market value on the first day of the offering period or the fair market value on the last day of the offering period.  We make no contributions to this plan but pay all brokerage, service and other costs incurred.  The plan, as amended, allows participants to purchase no more than 125 shares during any calendar quarter.

During the six months ended July 28, 2012, employees purchased 49,724 shares under the ESDP, which had a weighted-average share price of $25.52 per share.  As of July 28, 2012, 903,378 shares were reserved for future issuance under the ESDP.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually as of our fiscal year end.  A more frequent evaluation is performed if events or circumstances indicate that impairment could have occurred.  Such events or circumstances could include, but are not limited to, new significant negative industry or economic trends, unanticipated changes in the competitive environment, decisions to significantly modify or dispose of operations and a significant sustained decline in the market price of our stock.  No additional impairment evaluation was considered necessary during the first six months of fiscal 2012.

Intangible Assets

The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization totaled approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, respectively.  The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization totaled approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million for the six months ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, respectively, and approximately $3.4 million for the year ended January 28, 2012.  Pretax amortization associated with intangible assets subject to amortization at July 28, 2012 is estimated to be $1.7 million for the remainder of fiscal year 2012, $3.2 million for fiscal year 2013 and $3.1 million for each of the fiscal years 2014, 2015 and 2016.

10.  Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, categorizing the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy can be described as follows:  Level 1 - observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2 - inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are

15

THE MEN’S WEARHOUSE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.  The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 and Level 2 during the three and six months ended July 28, 2012 or July 30, 2011, respectively, or during the year ended January 28, 2012.

Cash equivalents consist of money market instruments that have original maturities of three months or less.  The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the highly liquid and short-term nature of these instruments.

Derivative financial instruments are comprised of foreign currency forward exchange contracts primarily entered into to minimize our foreign currency exposure related to forecasted purchases of certain inventories denominated in a currency different from the operating entity’s functional currency.  Our derivative financial instruments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value based upon observable market inputs.  Derivative financial instruments in an asset position are included within other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Derivative financial instruments in a liability position are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Refer to Note 11 for further information regarding our derivative instruments.

Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and identifiable intangibles with finite useful lives, are periodically evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the asset carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset.  The fair values of long-lived assets held-for-use are based on our own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset and on observable market data, when available.  We classify these measurements as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.  For the three and six months ended July 28, 2012, we recorded charges for the impairment of long-lived assets of $0.1 million which is included within selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  The asset impairment charges reduced the carrying amounts of the applicable long-lived assets, primarily leasehold improvements for certain Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores, to their fair values of zero as of July 28, 2012.  For the three and six months ended July 30, 2011, we recorded charges for the impairment of long-lived assets of $1.0 million which is included within SG&A expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  The asset impairment charges reduced the carrying amounts of the applicable long-lived assets, primarily leasehold improvements for certain Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores, to their fair values of $0.1 million as of July 30, 2011.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments, other than those presented in the disclosures above, consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities.  Management estimates that, as of July 28, 2012, July 30, 2011 and January 28, 2012, the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the highly liquid or short-term nature of these instruments.

11.  Derivative Financial Instruments

We are exposed to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct sourcing programs and our operations in foreign countries.  In connection with our direct sourcing programs, we may enter into merchandise purchase commitments that are denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the operating entity.  Our risk management policy is to hedge a significant portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for our direct sourcing programs that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts.  The Company has not elected to apply hedge accounting to these transactions denominated in a foreign currency.

Our derivative financial instruments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value determined by comparing the cost of the foreign currency to be purchased under the contracts using the exchange rates obtained under the contracts (adjusted for forward points) to the hypothetical cost using the spot rate at period end.

12.  Segment Reporting

The Company’s operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.

The retail segment includes the results from our four retail merchandising brands: Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, K&G and Moores Clothing for Men (“Moores”).  These four brands are operating segments that have been aggregated into the retail reportable segment based on their similar economic characteristics, products, production processes, target customers and distribution methods.  MW Cleaners is also aggregated in the retail segment as these operations have not had a significant effect on the revenues or expenses of the Company.  Specialty apparel merchandise offered by our four retail merchandising concepts includes suits, suit separates, sport coats, slacks, sportswear, outerwear, dress shirts, shoes and accessories for men.  Ladies’ career apparel, sportswear, accessories and shoes and children’s apparel is offered at most of our K&G stores.  Tuxedo rentals are offered at our Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux and Moores retail stores.

The corporate apparel segment includes the results from our corporate apparel and uniform operations conducted by Twin Hill in the United States and Dimensions and Alexandra in the UK.  The two corporate apparel and uniform concepts are operating segments that have been aggregated into the reportable corporate apparel segment based on their similar economic characteristics, products, production processes, target customers and distribution methods.  The corporate apparel segment provides corporate clothing uniforms and workwear to workforces.

Operating income is the primary measure of profit we use to make decisions on allocating resources to our operating segments and to assess the operating performance of each operating segment.  It is defined as income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes and noncontrolling interest.  Corporate expenses and assets are allocated to the retail segment.

Net sales by brand and reportable segment are as follows (in thousands):

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

For supplemental information, it is suggested that “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” be read in conjunction with the corresponding section included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2012.  References herein to years are to our 52-week or 53-week fiscal year which ends on the Saturday nearest January 31 in the following calendar year.  For example, references to “2012” mean the 53-week fiscal year ending February 2, 2013.

Our operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.

The Company conducts its retail segment as a specialty apparel retailer offering suits, suit separates, sport coats, slacks, sportswear, outerwear, dress shirts, shoes and accessories for men and tuxedo rentals.  We offer our products and services through multiple brands and channels including The Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, K&G, Moores Clothing for Men (“Moores”) and on the internet at www.menswearhouse.com and www.kgstores.com.  Our stores are located throughout the United States and Canada and carry a wide selection of brand name and private label merchandise.  In addition, we offer our customers a variety of services, including alterations and our loyalty program, and most of our K&G stores offer ladies’ career apparel, sportswear, accessories and shoes and children’s apparel.  MW Cleaners is also aggregated in the retail segment as these operations have not had a significant effect on the revenues or expenses.  MW Cleaners conducts retail dry cleaning and laundry operations in the Houston, Texas area.

The corporate apparel segment includes the results from our corporate apparel and uniform operations conducted by Twin Hill in the United States and by Dimensions (including the Yaffy brand for police uniforms) and Alexandra in the United Kingdom.  Refer to Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information and disclosures regarding our reportable segments and the discussion included in “Results of Operations” below.

Overview

We had revenues of $662.3 million, gross margin of $320.3 million and net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $59.4 million for the quarter ended July 28, 2012, compared to revenues of $655.5 million, gross margin of $309.2 and net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $57.1 million for the quarter ended July 30, 2011.  We had revenues of $1,248.9 million, gross margin of $574.3 million and net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $86.3 million for the six months ended July 28, 2012, compared to revenues of $1,235.9 million, gross margin of $555.9 million and net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $84.5 million for the six months ended July 30, 2011.  We increased our revenues by $6.8 million or 1.0% and our gross margin by $11.0 million or 3.6% for the second quarter of 2012 as compared to the same prior year period.  We increased our revenues by $13.0 million or 1.0% and our gross margin by $18.4 million or 3.3% for the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same prior year period.

The following table presents information with respect to retail apparel stores in operation during each of the respective fiscal periods:

	1,153		1,178		1,153		1,178		1,166

During the first six months of 2012, we opened eight stores (seven Men’s Wearhouse stores and one K&G store) and closed 21 stores (one Men’s Wearhouse store, two K&G stores and 18 Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores), of which 15 had reached the end of their lease terms.

Our sales and net earnings are subject to seasonal fluctuations.  In most years, a greater portion of our net retail clothing sales have been generated during the fourth quarter of each year when holiday season shopping peaks.  In addition, our tuxedo rental revenues are heavily concentrated in the second quarter while the fourth quarter is considered the seasonal low point.  With respect to corporate apparel sales and operating results, seasonal fluctuations are not significant but customer decisions to rebrand or revise their corporate wear programs can cause significant variations in period results.  Because of these fluctuations in our sales, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.  Additionally, U.S. and global economic conditions that impact consumer confidence and the level of consumer discretionary spending also impact our operating results.

Total retail sales increased $18.7 million, or 3.2%, to $604.7 million due mainly to a $11.2 million increase in retail clothing product revenues and a $5.9 million increase in tuxedo rental services revenues.  These increases are attributable to the following:

(in millions)			Amount Attributed to
$	15.3		Increase in comparable sales.
8.7			Increase from net sales of stores opened in 2011, relocated stores and expanded stores not yet included in comparable sales.
2.4			Increase in e-commerce, alteration and other services sales.
2.3			Increase in net sales from eight new stores opened in 2012.
(6.3		)	Decrease in net sales resulting from closed stores.
(3.7		)	Decrease in net sales resulting from change in U.S./Canadian dollar exchange rate.
$	18.7		Increase in total retail sales.

Comparable store sales (which are calculated by excluding the net sales of a store for any month of one period if the store was not open throughout the same month of the prior period) increased 4.4% at Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, increased 2.5% at Moores and decreased 3.3% at K&G.  The increase at Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux resulted from increased average unit retails (net selling prices) that more than offset a decrease in average transactions per store.  The increase at Moores was driven by increased average unit retails and increased units sold per transaction that more than offset a decrease in average transactions per store.  The decrease at K&G was due to decreased average unit retails.  Tuxedo rental service revenues increased primarily due to increased unit rentals and unit rental rates as well as increased sales of tuxedo accessories.

Total corporate apparel clothing product sales decreased $11.9 million to $57.6 million.  UK corporate apparel sales decreased $11.8 million due to later launch dates for customer directed new uniform programs (“rollouts”) in fiscal 2012 as compared to fiscal 2011.  In addition, UK customer rollouts in 2012 were comparatively smaller than in 2011 which included the largest single customer rollout in Dimensions’ operating history.

The Company’s gross margin was as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended
	July 28,			July 30,
	2012			2011
Gross margin (in thousands)	$	320,257		$	309,245
Gross margin as a percentage of related sales:
Retail gross margin:
Clothing product	55.4		%	55.5		%
Tuxedo rental services	86.2		%	86.4		%
Alteration and other services	25.0		%	23.9		%
Occupancy costs	(11.5		)%	(11.7		)%
Total retail gross margin	49.9		%	49.7		%
Corporate apparel clothing product gross margin	31.9		%	26.0		%
Total gross margin	48.4		%	47.2		%

Buying and distribution costs are included in determining our retail and corporate apparel clothing product gross margins.  Our gross margin may not be comparable to other specialty retailers, as some companies exclude costs related to their distribution network from cost of goods sold while others, like us, include all or a portion of such costs in cost of goods sold and exclude them from selling, general and administrative expenses.  Distribution costs are not included in determining our tuxedo rental services gross margin but are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

In the retail segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased from 49.7% in the second quarter of 2011 to 49.9% in the second quarter of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis total retail segment gross margin increased $10.7 million or 3.7% from the same prior year quarter to $301.9 million in the second quarter of 2012.  Retail clothing product margin decreased slightly from 55.5% in the second quarter of 2011 to 55.4% in the second quarter of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis retail clothing product margin increased $6.1 million.  Tuxedo rental services margin decreased slightly from 86.4% in the second quarter of 2011 to 86.2% in the second quarter of 2012 due mainly to increased royalty expenses.  On an absolute dollar basis tuxedo rental services margin increased $4.8 million.  The gross margin for alteration and other services increased from 23.9% in the second quarter of 2011

24

to 25.0% in the second quarter of 2012 mainly as a result of increased sales at MW Cleaners and improved cost leverage from increased alteration sales at Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores.  Occupancy costs, which is relatively constant on a per store basis and includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, decreased from 11.7% in the second quarter of 2011 to 11.5% in the second quarter of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis occupancy costs increased $1.0 million primarily due to depreciation expense.

In the corporate apparel segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased from 26.0% in the second quarter of 2011 to 31.9% in the second quarter of 2012 mainly as a result of cost synergies following the consolidation of Dimensions and Alexandra distribution facilities and supporting service functions and changes in the sales mix.  On an absolute dollar basis, corporate apparel gross margin increased $0.3 million as the impact of decreased sales was more than offset by the cost synergies and sales mix changes.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased to $228.7 million in the second quarter of 2012 from $220.2 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $8.4 million or 3.8%.  As a percentage of total net sales, these expenses increased from 33.6% in the second quarter of 2011 to 34.5% in the second quarter of 2012.  The components of this 0.9% net increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of total net sales and the related absolute dollar changes were as follows:

%		Attributed to
0.6		Increase in advertising expense as a percentage of sales from 3.3% in the second quarter of 2011 to 3.9% in the second quarter of 2012. On an absolute dollar basis, advertising expense increased $4.4 million.
0.1		Increase in store salaries as a percentage of sales from 12.0% in the second quarter of 2011 to 12.1% in the second quarter of 2012. Store salaries on an absolute dollar basis increased $1.3 million primarily due to increased store sales support salaries and increased commissions associated with increased retail sales.
0.2		Increase in other SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales from 18.3% in the second quarter of 2011 to 18.5% in the second quarter of 2012. On an absolute dollar basis, other SG&A expenses increased $2.7 million primarily due to increased payroll related costs.
0.9	%	Total

In the retail segment, SG&A expenses as a percentage of related net sales increased from 34.6% in the second quarter of 2011 to 35.1% in the second quarter of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis, retail segment SG&A expenses increased $9.4 million primarily due to increased advertising expense, stores salaries and payroll related costs, offset partially by the reduction in non-cash asset impairment charges of $0.9 million.

In the corporate apparel segment, SG&A expenses as a percentage of related net sales increased from 24.8% in the second quarter of 2011 to 28.1% in the second quarter of 2012 primarily because of the decrease in sales.  On an absolute dollar basis, corporate apparel segment SG&A expenses decreased $1.0 million primarily due to reduced UK operating expenses following the consolidation of Dimensions and Alexandra distribution facilities and supporting service functions and the absence in the second quarter of 2012 of $0.7 million in integration costs incurred in the second quarter of 2011 associated with our August 2010 UK acquisitions.

Corporate apparel segment operating income of $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2012 includes $2.5 million of operating income in the UK and $0.3 million of operating losses in the U.S.

Our effective income tax rate was 34.7% for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and 35.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2011.  The effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was lower than the statutory U.S. federal rate of 35% due to the favorable tax rate effects from net permanent book-to-tax adjustments, lower foreign statutory tax rates imposed on our foreign operations and benefits from the conclusion of various income tax audits, offset partially by the effect of state income taxes.  The effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was higher than the statutory U.S. federal rate of 35% due mainly to state income taxes, offset partially by lower foreign statutory tax rates imposed on our foreign operations.

These factors resulted in net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $59.4 million or 9.0% of net sales for the second quarter of 2012, compared with net earnings of $57.1 million or 8.7% of net sales for the second quarter of 2011.

Total retail sales increased $34.6 million, or 3.1%, to $1,141.4 million due mainly to an $21.4 million increase in retail clothing product revenues and a $11.2 million increase in tuxedo rental services revenues.   These increases are attributable to the following:

(in millions)			Amount Attributed to
$	26.8		Increase in comparable sales.
17.2			Increase from net sales of stores opened in 2011, relocated stores and expanded stores not yet included in comparable sales.

(11.3		)	Decrease in net sales resulting from closed stores.
(5.0		)	Decrease in net sales resulting from change in U.S./Canadian dollar exchange rate.
$	34.6		Increase in total retail sales.

Comparable store sales increased 4.1% at Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, increased 4.4% at Moores and decreased 3.7% at K&G.  The increase at Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux resulted from increased average unit retails (net selling prices) that more than offset decreases in average transactions per store and units sold per transaction.  The increase at Moores was driven by increased average unit retails and increased units sold per transaction that more than offset a decrease in average transactions per store.  The decrease at K&G was due to decreased average unit retails that more than offset increases in the average number of transactions per store and units sold per transaction.  Tuxedo rental service revenues increased primarily due to increased unit rentals and unit rental rates as well as increased sales of tuxedo accessories.

Total corporate apparel clothing product sales decreased $21.7 million, to $107.5 million.  UK corporate apparel sales decreased $23.0 million due to later launch dates for customer directed new uniform rollouts in fiscal 2012 as compared to fiscal 2011.  In addition, UK customer rollouts in 2012 were comparatively smaller than in 2011 which included the largest single customer rollout in Dimensions’ operating history.  U.S. corporate apparel sales increased $1.3 million due primarily to increased sales from a customer program and increased catalog sales.

In the retail segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased from 47.1% in the first six months of 2011 to 47.5% in the first six months of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis total retail segment gross margin increased $21.5 million or 4.1% from the same prior year period to $542.7 million in the first six months of 2012.  Retail clothing product gross margin increased from 54.9% in the first six months of 2011 to 55.3% in the first six months of 2012 due primarily to increased average unit retails.  Tuxedo rental services margin decreased from 86.5% in the first six months of 2011 to 86.1% in the first six months of 2012 due mainly to increased royalty expenses.  On an absolute dollar basis tuxedo rental services margin increased $8.9 million.  The gross margin for alteration and other services decreased from 26.7% in the first six months of 2011 to 26.0% in the first six months of 2012 mainly

27

as a result of increased payroll related costs, offset partially by increased sales at MW Cleaners.  Occupancy costs, which is relatively constant on a per store basis and includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, decreased from 12.3% in the first six months of 2011 to 12.1% in the first six months of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis, occupancy costs increased $2.5 million primarily due to higher rent and depreciation expense.

In the corporate apparel segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased from 26.8% in the first six months of 2011 to 29.4% in the first six months of 2012 mainly as a result of cost synergies following the consolidation of Dimensions and Alexandra distribution facilities and supporting service functions and changes in the sales mix.

In the retail segment, SG&A expenses as a percentage of related net sales increased from 35.1% in the first six months of 2011 to 35.9% in the first six months of 2012.  On an absolute dollar basis, retail segment SG&A expenses increased $21.7 million primarily due to increased advertising expense, stores salaries and payroll related costs, offset partially by the reduction in non-cash asset impairment charges of $0.9 million.

In the corporate apparel segment, SG&A expenses as a percentage of related net sales increased from 27.1% in the first six months of 2011 to 29.6% in the first six months of 2012 primarily because of the decrease in sales.  On an absolute dollar basis, corporate apparel segment SG&A expenses decreased $3.2 million primarily due to reduced UK operating expenses following the consolidation of Dimensions and Alexandra distribution facilities and supporting service functions and the absence in the first six months of 2012 of $1.4 million in integration costs, incurred in the first six months of 2011 associated with our August 2010 UK acquisitions.

Corporate apparel segment operating loss of $0.2 million for the first six months of 2012 includes $0.8 million of operating income in the UK and $1.0 million of operating losses in the U.S.

Our effective income tax rate was 34.7% for the first six months of fiscal 2012 and 36.1% for the first six months of fiscal 2011.  The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2012 was lower than the statutory U.S. federal rate of 35% due to the favorable tax rate effects from net permanent book-to-tax adjustments, lower foreign statutory tax rates imposed on our foreign operations and benefits from the conclusion of various income tax audits, offset partially by the effect of state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2011 was higher than the statutory U.S. federal rate due mainly to state income taxes, offset partially by lower foreign statutory tax rates imposed on our foreign operations.

These factors resulted in net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $86.3 million or 6.9% of net sales for the first six months of 2012, compared with net earnings of $84.5 million or 6.8% of net sales for the first six months of 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 28, 2012, January 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, cash and cash equivalents totaled $106.4 million, $125.3 million and $162.3 million, respectively.  We had working capital of $541.9 million, $544.1 million and $535.8 million at July 28, 2012, January 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, respectively.  Our primary sources of working capital are cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our Credit Agreement (as defined below).  The $2.2 million decrease in working capital at July 28, 2012 compared to January 28, 2012 resulted mainly from purchases of shares of common stock made during the first six months of 2012, offset by net earnings adjusted for non-cash charges and increased accounts receivables.

Credit Facilities

We have a revolving credit facility with a group of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for a total senior revolving credit facility of $200.0 million, with increases to $300.0 million upon additional lender commitments, that matures on January 26, 2016.  The Credit Agreement is secured by the stock of certain of our subsidiaries.  The Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBO rate, (ii) adjusted EURIBO rate, (iii) CDO rate, (iv) Canadian prime rate or (v) an alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or the adjusted LIBO rate for a one month period plus 1.0%).  Advances under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin up to 2.75%.  The Credit Agreement also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit which range from 2.00% to 2.75%, and a fee on unused commitments which ranges from 0.35% to 0.50%.  As of July 28, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain certain financial ratios.  The restrictive provisions in the Credit Agreement reflect an overall covenant structure that is generally representative of a commercial loan made to an investment-grade company.  Our debt, however, is not rated and we have not sought, and are not seeking, a rating of our debt.  We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement as of July 28, 2012.

We utilize letters of credit primarily to secure inventory purchases and as collateral for workers compensation claims.  At July 28, 2012, letters of credit totaling approximately $20.8 million were issued and outstanding.  Borrowings available under our Credit Agreement at July 28, 2012 were $179.2 million.

Cash flow activities

Operating activities — Our primary source of operating cash flow is from sales to our customers.  Our primary uses of cash include clothing product inventory and tuxedo rental product purchases, personnel related expenses, occupancy costs, advertising costs and income tax payments.  Our operating activities provided net cash of $108.4 million in the first six months of 2012, due mainly to net earnings, adjusted for non-cash charges, and an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, offset by increases in accounts receivable, inventories, tuxedo rental product and other assets.

·The increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities was primarily due to the timing of vendor payments for inventory and tuxedo product purchases and the seasonal increase in tuxedo rental deposits.

·The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in UK sales during the June/July 2012 period as compared to the December 2011/January 2012 period when sales were lower than usual due to Dimensions and Alexandra consolidation activities during those months.

·Inventories increased mainly because of customer rollouts of corporate apparel uniform programs scheduled for the second half of 2012.

·Tuxedo rental product increased to support the continued growth of our tuxedo rental business and to replenish product offerings.

·The increase in other assets related primarily to the timing and amounts of required tax payments and an increase in prepaid expenses.

During the first six months of 2011, our operating activities provided net cash of $122.0 million, due mainly to net earnings, adjusted for non-cash charges, increases in income taxes payable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and a decrease in other assets, offset by increases in inventories and tuxedo rental product.

·The increase in inventories was primarily due to increased retail sales and planned promotions in the second half of fiscal 2011.

·Tuxedo rental product increased to support the continued growth of our tuxedo rental business and to replenish product offerings.

·The increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities was primarily due to the timing of vendor payments for inventory and tuxedo product purchases and the seasonal increase in tuxedo rental deposits.

·The decrease in other assets and the increase in income taxes payable were due to the timing and amounts of required tax payments.

Investing activities — Our cash outflows from investing activities are primarily for capital expenditures.  During the first six months of 2012 and 2011, our investing activities used net cash of $68.8 million and $38.2 million, respectively, primarily for capital expenditures.  Our capital expenditures relate to costs incurred for stores opened, remodeled or relocated during the period or under construction at the end of the period, office and distribution facility additions and infrastructure technology investments.

Financing activities — Our cash outflows from financing activities consist primarily of cash dividend payments and repurchases of common stock, while cash inflows from financing activities consist primarily of proceeds from the issuance of common stock.  During the first six months of 2012, our financing activities used net cash of $58.4 million due mainly to the repurchase of common stock of $41.3 million and cash dividends paid of $18.6 million, offset by $3.9 million proceeds from the issuance of common stock.  Our financing activities used net cash of $58.7 million for the first six months of 2011, due mainly to the repurchase of common stock of $49.0 million and cash dividends paid of $12.7 million, offset by $4.6 million proceeds from the issuance of common stock

Share repurchase program — We repurchase shares of our common stock primarily through open market transactions under a $150.0 million share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors in January 2011.

During the first six months of 2011, 1,822,340 shares at a cost of $48.8 million were repurchased at an average price per share of $26.78 under the January 2011 authorization.  During the first six months of 2012, 1,121,484 shares at a cost of $41.0 million were repurchased at an average price per share of $36.59 under the January 2011 authorization.   At July 28, 2012, the remaining balance available under the January 2011 authorization was $45.2 million.

30

During the first six months of 2012 and 2011, 7,041 shares and 7,132 shares, respectively, at a cost of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, were repurchased at an average price per share of $37.28 and $27.77, respectively, in private transactions to satisfy tax withholding obligations arising upon the vesting of certain restricted stock.

The following table summarizes our common stock repurchases (in thousands, except share data and average price per share):

	For the Six Months Ended
	July 28, 2012		July 30, 2011
Shares repurchased	1,128,525		1,829,472
Total costs	$	41,296	$	48,999
Average price per share	$	36.59	$	26.78

In June 2012, 6,295 treasury shares of our common stock were reissued pursuant to a two-year services agreement with an unrelated third party.  The fair value of the common stock issued was approximately $0.2 million.

Dividends — Cash dividends paid were approximately $18.6 million and $12.7 million for the six months ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, respectively.

In June 2012, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18 per share payable on September 21, 2012 to shareholders of record at close of business on September 11, 2012.  The dividend payout is estimated to be approximately $9.2 million and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 28, 2012.

Future sources and uses of cash

Our primary uses of cash are to finance working capital requirements of our operations.  In addition, we will use cash to fund capital expenditures, income tax and dividend payments, operating leases and various other commitments and obligations, as they arise.

Capital expenditures are anticipated to be in the range of $125.0 to $135.0 million for 2012.  This amount includes the anticipated costs of opening approximately 35 new Men’s Wearhouse stores, three new Moores stores and one new K&G store in 2012.  This amount also includes the $13.4 million purchase, completed in June 2012, of approximately 7.7 acres with three buildings (total square footage 115,737) in Fremont, California to be utilized for offices as we consolidate our California office locations.  The balance of the capital expenditures for 2012 will be used for telecommunications, point-of-sale and other computer equipment and systems, store relocations, remodeling and expansion, distribution and office facilities and investment in other corporate assets.  The actual amount of future capital expenditures will depend in part on the number of new stores opened and the terms on which new stores are leased, as well as on industry trends consistent with our anticipated operating plans.

Current domestic and global economic conditions, including unemployment levels, public sector spending and credit market constraints, could negatively affect our future operating results as well as our existing cash and cash equivalents balances.  In addition, conditions in the financial markets could limit our access to additional capital resources, if needed, and could increase associated costs.  We believe based on our current business plan that our existing cash and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our planned store openings, relocations and remodelings, other capital expenditures and operating cash requirements, and that we will be able to maintain compliance with the covenants in our Credit Agreement for at least the next 12 months.  Borrowings available under our Credit Agreement were $179.2 million as of July 28, 2012.

We are exposed to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct sourcing programs and our operations in foreign countries.  In connection with our direct sourcing programs, we may enter into merchandise purchase commitments that are denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the operating entity.  Our risk management policy is to hedge a significant portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for our direct sourcing programs that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts.  As these foreign exchange forward contracts are with three financial institutions, we are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by these parties.  However, due to the creditworthiness of these major financial institutions, full performance is anticipated.

31

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires the appropriate application of accounting policies in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  In many instances, this also requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts and disclosures included in our financial statements.  We base our estimates on historical experience and various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under our current business model.  However, because future events and conditions and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results will differ from our estimates and such differences could be material to our financial statements.  There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2012.

32

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.  There have been no material changes to our market risks as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2012.  Refer to Notes 10 and 11 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, contained herein for disclosures on our investments and derivative financial instruments and Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein for disclosures regarding our Credit Agreement.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended July 28, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

33

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 — LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in various routine legal proceedings, including ongoing litigation, incidental to the conduct of our business.  Management does not believe that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A — RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Item 1A contained in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2012.

3.  Debt

We have a revolving credit facility with a group of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for a total senior revolving credit facility of $200.0 million, with increases to $300.0 million upon additional lender commitments, that matures on January 26, 2016.  The Credit Agreement is secured by the stock of certain of our subsidiaries.  The Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBO rate, (ii) adjusted EURIBO rate, (iii) CDO rate, (iv) Canadian prime rate or (v) an alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or the adjusted LIBO rate for a one month period plus 1.0%).  Advances under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin up to 2.75%.  The Credit Agreement also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit which range from 2.00% to 2.75%, and a fee on unused commitments which ranges from 0.35% to 0.50%.  As of July 28, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain certain financial ratios.  The restrictive provisions in the Credit Agreement reflect an overall covenant structure that is generally representative of a commercial loan made to an investment-grade company.  Our debt, however, is not rated and we have not sought, and are not seeking, a rating of our debt.  We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement as of July 28, 2012.

We utilize letters of credit primarily to secure inventory purchases and as collateral for workers compensation claims.  At July 28, 2012, letters of credit totaling approximately $20.8 million were issued and outstanding.  Borrowings available under our Credit Agreement at July 28, 2012 were $179.2 million.

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) and have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  As applicable under such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted.  We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2012.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures.  Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Treasury stock — Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent reissuance of shares are credited or charged to paid-in capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance regarding testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment.  The amendments in this update will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Under these amendments, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the entity determines, based on qualitative assessment, that it is not more likely than not the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The amendments include a number of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this update will only impact our testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and will have no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  We are currently evaluating the impact of this updated guidance on our indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment testing process.

In September 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding testing goodwill for impairment.  The updated guidance will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test.  Under these amendments, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.  The amendments include a number of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment.  The adoption of this update at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows but may change the way we perform our annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In June 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income.  The updated guidance allows an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  The update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.  The update does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income.  In December 2011, the FASB issued a “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments of the Presentation of Reclassification of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  This defers only the changes that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of the financial statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented.  We present comprehensive income in a separate statement to the accompanying financial statements.  The adoption of this update had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB updated the guidance regarding certain accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements.  The updated guidance amends U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) to create more commonality with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) by changing some of the wording used to describe requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  The adoption of this update at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Earnings per Share

Earnings per Share

2.  Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders is determined using the two-class method and is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders reflects the more dilutive earnings per common share amount calculated using the treasury stock method or the two-class method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders (in thousands, except per share amounts). Basic and diluted earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders are computed using the actual net earnings available to common shareholders and the actual weighted-average common shares outstanding rather than the rounded numbers presented within our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.  As a result, it may not be possible to recalculate earnings per common share attributable to common shareholders in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.

Segment Reporting

12.  Segment Reporting

The Company’s operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.

The retail segment includes the results from our four retail merchandising brands: Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, K&G and Moores Clothing for Men (“Moores”).  These four brands are operating segments that have been aggregated into the retail reportable segment based on their similar economic characteristics, products, production processes, target customers and distribution methods.  MW Cleaners is also aggregated in the retail segment as these operations have not had a significant effect on the revenues or expenses of the Company.  Specialty apparel merchandise offered by our four retail merchandising concepts includes suits, suit separates, sport coats, slacks, sportswear, outerwear, dress shirts, shoes and accessories for men.  Ladies’ career apparel, sportswear, accessories and shoes and children’s apparel is offered at most of our K&G stores.  Tuxedo rentals are offered at our Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux and Moores retail stores.

The corporate apparel segment includes the results from our corporate apparel and uniform operations conducted by Twin Hill in the United States and Dimensions and Alexandra in the UK.  The two corporate apparel and uniform concepts are operating segments that have been aggregated into the reportable corporate apparel segment based on their similar economic characteristics, products, production processes, target customers and distribution methods.  The corporate apparel segment provides corporate clothing uniforms and workwear to workforces.

Operating income is the primary measure of profit we use to make decisions on allocating resources to our operating segments and to assess the operating performance of each operating segment.  It is defined as income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes and noncontrolling interest.  Corporate expenses and assets are allocated to the retail segment.

Net sales by brand and reportable segment are as follows (in thousands):

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) and have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  As applicable under such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted.  We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2012.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures.  Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Treasury stock

Treasury stock — Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent reissuance of shares are credited or charged to paid-in capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance regarding testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment.  The amendments in this update will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Under these amendments, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the entity determines, based on qualitative assessment, that it is not more likely than not the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The amendments include a number of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this update will only impact our testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and will have no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  We are currently evaluating the impact of this updated guidance on our indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment testing process.

In September 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding testing goodwill for impairment.  The updated guidance will allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test.  Under these amendments, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.  The amendments include a number of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment.  The adoption of this update at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows but may change the way we perform our annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In June 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income.  The updated guidance allows an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  The update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.  The update does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income.  In December 2011, the FASB issued a “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments of the Presentation of Reclassification of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  This defers only the changes that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of the financial statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented.  We present comprehensive income in a separate statement to the accompanying financial statements.  The adoption of this update had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB updated the guidance regarding certain accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements.  The updated guidance amends U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) to create more commonality with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) by changing some of the wording used to describe requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  The adoption of this update at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

10.  Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, categorizing the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy can be described as follows:  Level 1 - observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2 - inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.  The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 and Level 2 during the three and six months ended July 28, 2012 or July 30, 2011, respectively, or during the year ended January 28, 2012.

Cash equivalents consist of money market instruments that have original maturities of three months or less.  The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the highly liquid and short-term nature of these instruments.

Derivative financial instruments are comprised of foreign currency forward exchange contracts primarily entered into to minimize our foreign currency exposure related to forecasted purchases of certain inventories denominated in a currency different from the operating entity’s functional currency.  Our derivative financial instruments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value based upon observable market inputs.  Derivative financial instruments in an asset position are included within other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Derivative financial instruments in a liability position are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Refer to Note 11 for further information regarding our derivative instruments.

Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and identifiable intangibles with finite useful lives, are periodically evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the asset carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset.  The fair values of long-lived assets held-for-use are based on our own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset and on observable market data, when available.  We classify these measurements as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.  For the three and six months ended July 28, 2012, we recorded charges for the impairment of long-lived assets of $0.1 million which is included within selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  The asset impairment charges reduced the carrying amounts of the applicable long-lived assets, primarily leasehold improvements for certain Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores, to their fair values of zero as of July 28, 2012.  For the three and six months ended July 30, 2011, we recorded charges for the impairment of long-lived assets of $1.0 million which is included within SG&A expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  The asset impairment charges reduced the carrying amounts of the applicable long-lived assets, primarily leasehold improvements for certain Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores, to their fair values of $0.1 million as of July 30, 2011.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments, other than those presented in the disclosures above, consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities.  Management estimates that, as of July 28, 2012, July 30, 2011 and January 28, 2012, the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the highly liquid or short-term nature of these instruments.

Share-Based Compensation Plans

8.     Share-Based Compensation Plans

We maintain several equity plans under which we may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units and performance based awards to full-time key employees and non-employee directors.  We account for share-based awards in accordance with the FASB standard regarding share-based payments, which requires the compensation cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. The amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the instrument issued and is recognized over the vesting period.  Share-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended July 28, 2012 was $4.2 million and $8.3 million, respectively.  Share-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended July 30, 2011 was $3.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

Stock Options

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended July 28, 2012:

	Shares		Weighted-  Average  Exercise  Price
Outstanding at January 28, 2012	1,314,422		$	22.61

Outstanding at July 28, 2012	1,264,151		$	24.45
Exercisable at July 28, 2012	703,761		$	21.76

The weighted-average grant date fair value of the 100,349 stock options granted during the six months ended July 28, 2012 was $17.21 per share. The following table summarizes the weighted average assumptions used to fair value stock options at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the six months ended July 28, 2012.

	For the Six Months Ended July 28, 2012
Risk-free interest rate	1.09	%
Expected lives	5.0 years
Dividend yield	2.07	%
Expected volatility	58.67	%

The assumptions presented in the table above represent the weighted average of the applicable assumptions used to fair value stock options.  The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  The expected lives represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding after their grant date.  The dividend yield is based on the average of the annual dividend divided by the market price of our common stock at the time of declaration. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock.

As of  July 28, 2012, we have unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested stock options of approximately $5.4 million which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

Nonvested Deferred Stock Units and Restricted Stock Shares

The following table summarizes deferred stock unit activity for the six months ended July 28, 2012:

The following table summarizes restricted stock activity for the six months ended July 28, 2012:

	Shares		Weighted-  Average  Grant-Date  Fair Value
Nonvested at January 28, 2012	119,081		$	28.45

As of July 28, 2012, we have unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested deferred stock units and shares of restricted stock of approximately $15.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Discount Plan (“ESDP”) allows employees to authorize after-tax payroll deductions to be used for the purchase of up to 2,137,500 shares of our common stock at 85% of the lesser of the fair market value on the first day of the offering period or the fair market value on the last day of the offering period.  We make no contributions to this plan but pay all brokerage, service and other costs incurred.  The plan, as amended, allows participants to purchase no more than 125 shares during any calendar quarter.

During the six months ended July 28, 2012, employees purchased 49,724 shares under the ESDP, which had a weighted-average share price of $25.52 per share.  As of July 28, 2012, 903,378 shares were reserved for future issuance under the ESDP.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually as of our fiscal year end.  A more frequent evaluation is performed if events or circumstances indicate that impairment could have occurred.  Such events or circumstances could include, but are not limited to, new significant negative industry or economic trends, unanticipated changes in the competitive environment, decisions to significantly modify or dispose of operations and a significant sustained decline in the market price of our stock.  No additional impairment evaluation was considered necessary during the first six months of fiscal 2012.

11.  Derivative Financial Instruments

We are exposed to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct sourcing programs and our operations in foreign countries.  In connection with our direct sourcing programs, we may enter into merchandise purchase commitments that are denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the operating entity.  Our risk management policy is to hedge a significant portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for our direct sourcing programs that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts.  The Company has not elected to apply hedge accounting to these transactions denominated in a foreign currency.

Our derivative financial instruments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value determined by comparing the cost of the foreign currency to be purchased under the contracts using the exchange rates obtained under the contracts (adjusted for forward points) to the hypothetical cost using the spot rate at period end.

The tables below disclose the fair value of the derivative financial instruments included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of July 28, 2012, January 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011 (in thousands):

	Asset Derivatives			Liability Derivatives

At January 28, 2012-Foreign exchange forward contracts	Other current assets	$	14	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	142
At July 30, 2011-Foreign exchange forward contracts	Other current assets	$	89	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	362

At July 28, 2012, we had 10 contracts to purchase euros for an aggregate notional amount of US$0.9 million maturing in various increments at various dates through December 2012, 13 contracts to purchase United States dollars (“USD”) for an aggregate notional amount of Canadian dollars (“CAD”) $7.3 million maturing in various increments at various dates through December 2012 and 18 contracts to purchase USD for an aggregate notional amount of pounds Sterling (“GBP”) £11.8 million maturing in various increments at various dates through December 2012.  For the three and six months ended July 28, 2012, we recognized a net pre-tax gain of $0.6 million and a pre-tax loss of $0.2 million, respectively, in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings for our derivative financial instruments not designated as cash flow hedges.

At January 28, 2012, we had 10 contracts maturing in varying increments to purchase euros for an aggregate notional amount of US$1.7 million maturing at various dates through June 2012, nine contracts maturing in varying increments to purchase USD for an aggregate notional amount of CAD $5.9 million maturing at various dates through June 2012 and 22 contracts maturing in varying increments to purchase USD for an aggregate notional amount of GBP £10.5 million maturing at various dates through May 2012.

At July 30, 2011, we had two contracts to purchase euros for an aggregate notional amount of US$1.0 million maturing in various increments at various dates through October 2011, six contracts to purchase USD for an aggregate notional amount of CAD $6.1 million maturing in various increments at various dates through December 2011 and 34 contracts to purchase USD for an aggregate notional amount of GBP £11.9 million maturing in various increments at various dates through November 2011.  For the three and six months ended July 30, 2011, we recognized a net pretax loss of $0.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings for our derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments.

We had no derivative financial instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features underlying the agreements as of July 28, 2012, January 28, 2012 or July 30, 2011, respectively.
