Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of The Finish Line, Inc., along with its consolidated subsidiaries (individually and collectively referred to as the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, significant variability in sales, net income, and merchandise inventories from reporting period to reporting period. Therefore, the results of the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 29, 2015.
