BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Jos. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. is a nationwide designer, manufacturer, retailer and direct marketer (through stores, catalog and Internet) of men’s tailored and casual clothing and accessories and is a retailer of tuxedo rental products. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Jos. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “we”, “our” or “us”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year. In the opinion of management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments necessary to make the results of operations for the interim periods a fair statement of the operating results for these periods. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

We operate on a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. The following fiscal years ended or will end on the dates indicated and will be referred to herein by their fiscal year designations:

Fiscal year 2008	January 31, 2009
Fiscal year 2009	January 30, 2010
Fiscal year 2010	January 29, 2011
Fiscal year 2011	January 28, 2012
Fiscal year 2012	February 2, 2013
Fiscal year 2013	February 1, 2014
Fiscal year 2014	January 31, 2015

Each fiscal year noted above consisted or consists of 52 weeks except fiscal year 2012, which consisted of 53 weeks.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for comparable annual financial statements. Certain information has been derived from our audited Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2012 and certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2012.
