CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “continues,” “feels,” “forecasts,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs, such as “will,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “aims,” “intends,” or “projects.” These statements include statements relating to trends in or expectations relating to the expected effects of our initiatives, strategies and plans, as well as trends in or expectations regarding our financial results and long-term growth model and drivers, tax rates, business opportunities and expansion, strategic acquisitions or investments, expenses, dividends, share repurchases, and our mitigation strategies, liquidity, cash flow from operations, use of cash and cash requirements, investments, borrowing capacity and use of proceeds, repatriation of cash to the U.S., and the effects of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and recent social unrest on our financial results. A forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances, and those future events or circumstances may not occur. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak to our views only as of the date of this filing. These forward-looking statements are all based on currently available operating, financial, and competitive information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are unforeseeable and beyond our control, such as the developing situation, and uncertainty caused, related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know about or that we currently consider to be insignificant may also affect our business operations and financial performance.

Please refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and “Item 1A Risk Factors” included in this filing. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Any or all of the forward-looking statements contained in this report or any other public statement made by us, including by our management, may turn out to be incorrect. We are including this cautionary note to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods of the fiscal year ending February 1, 2020 and of the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019. Certain items includedpresented. As used in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) the terms “Foot Locker,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Foot Locker, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The preparation of financial statements are based on management’s estimates.in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these Notes and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year. The results of operations for the period ended May 2, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to the continued uncertainty of general economic conditions that may affect us for the remainder of 2020. Specifically, we are uncertain of the extent to which the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic will affect our sales, traffic to our stores, including our distribution capabilities and those of our suppliers.  

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Foot Locker, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2019,1, 2020, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 2, 2019.March 27, 2020.

Other than the changes to the LeasesGoodwill policies as a result of the recently adopted accounting standards discussed below, there were no significant changes to the policies disclosed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2019.1, 2020.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

InOn February 2016,2, 2020, we adopted FASB guidance on the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASUaccounting for implementation costs of a cloud computing arrangement that is considered to be a service contract, that requires lessees to recognize a lease liability, on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use asset for substantially all leases, as well as additional disclosures regarding leasing arrangements. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted improvements, which provides an optional transition method of applying the new lease standard. Topic 842 can be applied using either a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the earliest period presented, or as permitted by ASU 2018-11, at the beginning of the period in which it is adopted.

The Company adopted Topic 842 on February 3, 2019 (the “effective date”) using the optional transition method, which applies Topic 842 at the beginning of the period in which it is adopted. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted in connection with the adoption of this standard. The Company elected the package of practical expedients under the new standard, which permits companies to not reassess lease classification, lease identification, or initial directfollow the guidance for internal-use software to determine which costs for existing or expired leases prior to the effective date. We have lease agreements with non-lease componentscapitalize in a cloud computing arrangement that relate to the lease components. The Company elected the practical expedient to account for non-lease components and the lease components to which they relate, asis a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. Also, the Company elected to keep short-term leases with an initial term of twelve months or less off the balance sheet.

Upon adoption ofservice contract. Under this new standard, the Company recorded right-of-use assets and lease obligationsguidance, such implementation costs will be capitalized in “Other assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, with the related amortization presented in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. This guidance was applied prospectively to implementation costs incurred after February 2, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

On February 2, 2020, we adopted FASB’s updated guidance on the accounting for our operating leases of $3,148 million and $3,422 million, respectively, as of February 3, 2019. As part of adoptingperforming goodwill impairment tests. This update eliminates the standard, previously recognized liabilities for deferred rent and lease incentives were reclassified asrequirement to perform a component of the right-of-use assets. Additionally upon adoption, we evaluated right-to-use assetshypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. In testing goodwill for impairment, an entity may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the qualitative assessment indicates that goodwill impairment is more likely than not, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount and determined that approximately $29 millionrecognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, not to exceed the total amount of impairment was required relatedgoodwill allocated to newly recognized right-of-use assets that would have been impairedthe reporting unit. Refer to our updated accounting policy in previous periods. This impairment of the right-to-use asset as of February 3, 2019 was recorded, net of related income tax effects, as a $26 million reduction of beginning retained earnings. The standard did not significantly affect our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Comprehensive Income, or Cash Flows.Note 6, Goodwill.

Other recently issued accounting pronouncements did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material effect on the Company’sour present or future consolidated financial statements.

2. Revenue

Store revenue is recognized at the point of sale and includes merchandise, net of returns, and excludes taxes. Revenue from layawayThe following table presents sales is recognized when the customer receives the product, rather than when the initial deposit is paid. Revenue for merchandise that is shipped to our customers from our distribution centers and stores is recognized upon shipment date.

Total revenue recognized includes shipping and handling fees. We have determined that control of the promised good is passed to the customer upon shipment date since the customer has legal title, the rewards of ownership, and has paid for the merchandise as of the shipment date. Shipping and handling is accounted for as a fulfillment activity. The Company accrues the cost and recognized revenue for these activities upon shipment date.

Our operating segments are identified according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated by our chief operating decision maker, our CEO. During 2018, the Company expanded into Asia and launched our digital channels across Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company changed its organizational and internal reporting structure in order to support an accelerated growth strategy for the region.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We opened an Asian headquarters in Singapore and realigned our organization into three distinct geographic regions: Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), Asia Pacific, and North America.

In light of these changes, the Company has re-evaluated its operating segments. The Company has determined that it has 3 operating segments, North America, EMEA, and Asia Pacific. Our North America operating segment includes the results of the following banners operating in the U.S. and Canada: Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, Lady Foot Locker, Champs Sports, Footaction, and SIX:02, including each of their related e-commerce businesses, as well as our Eastbay business that includes internet, catalog, and team sales. Our EMEA operating segment includes the results of the following banners operating in Europe: Foot Locker, Runners Point, Sidestep, and Kids Foot Locker, including each of their related e-commerce businesses. Our Asia Pacific operating segment includes the results of Foot Locker and Kids Foot Locker and the related e-commerce businesses operating in Australia, New Zealand, and Asia. We have further aggregated these operating segments into 1 reportable segment based upon their shared customer base and similar economic characteristics.

The Company evaluatesevaluate performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is the banner’s financial results referred to as division (loss) profit. Division (loss) profit reflects (loss) income before income taxes, pension litigationimpairment and other charges, corporate expense, non-operating income, and net interest (expense) income.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)The CompanyDuring the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020, we recorded pre-tax charges of $15 million related to the impairment of certain Runners Point and Sidestep stores that will be closing before lease expiration and other underperforming stores in Europe. We recorded pre-tax charges of $1 million and $3 million forin each of the thirteen weeks ended August 3,May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019 and August 4, 2018, respectively, related to a pension litigation matter and related plan reformation. For the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $2 million and $15 million, respectively. The charges in the current periods reflect professional feesadministrative costs in connection with the plan reformation. The prior year charges reflected adjustments to the value of the judgment and interest that continued to accrue, as required by the provisions of the requiredpension plan reformation.

For the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019, the Company incurred $13 million of lease termination costs related to the closure of certain of its SIX:02 locations.

(2)Corporate expense consists of unallocated selling, general and administrative expenses, as well as depreciation and amortization related to the Company’sour corporate headquarters, centrally managed departments, unallocated insurance and benefit programs, certain foreign exchange transaction gains and losses, and other items.

In May 2020, we made the strategic decision to close our Runners Point business. As part of the decision to close the banner, certain Runners Point stores will convert to other banners and approximately 40 Runners Point and Sidestep stores will close prior to their natural lease expiration. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our actual and projected results, we determined that a triggering event had occurred for certain underperforming stores operating in Europe and, therefore, we conducted an impairment review during the first quarter of 2020. We evaluated the long-lived assets, including the right-of-use assets, of 70 stores and recorded non-cash charges of $15 million to write down store fixtures, leasehold improvements, and right-of-use assets.  

The Company and the Company’s U.S. pension plan were involved in litigation related to the conversion of the plan to a cash balance plan. The court entered its final judgment in 2018, which required the plan to be reformed as directed by the court order. We recorded charges of $1 million for both the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019 related to administrative expenses in connection with the reformation.

During 2017 in connection with the pension litigation matter, the Company deposited $150 million in a qualified settlement fund. At August 4, 2018, the amount remaining in the fund was $54 million and was classified as part of non-current assets. At February 2, 2019, the fund was classified as a current asset due to our intention to use it to contribute to the pension plan. During 2018 and in March 2019, the Company used substantially all of the fund to pay class counsel fees and to make a contribution to the pension plan.

Other amountsAmounts included in restricted cash primarily relate to amounts held in escrow in connection with various leasing arrangements in Europe and deposits held in insurance trusts in order to satisfy the requirement to collateralize part of the self-insured workers’ compensation and liability claims.

The Company has elected to present book overdrafts, representing checks issued but still outstanding in excess of bank balances, as part of accounts payable.

5.6. Goodwill

AnnuallyWe review goodwill for impairment annually during the first quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise,arise. The review of impairment consists of either using a qualitative approach to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the assets is less than their respective carrying values or a one-step quantitative impairment test.

In performing the qualitative assessment, we consider many factors in evaluating whether the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable, including declines in our stock price and market capitalization in relation to the book value of the Company reviewsand macroeconomic conditions affecting retail. If, based on the results of the qualitative assessment, it is concluded that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, additional quantitative impairment testing is performed. The quantitative test requires that the carrying value of each reporting unit be compared with its estimated fair value. If the carrying value of a reporting unit is greater than its fair value, a goodwill impairment charge will be recorded for the difference (up to the carrying value of goodwill).

We use a discounted cash flow approach to determine the fair value of a reporting unit. The determination of discounted cash flows of the reporting units and assets and liabilities within the reporting units requires significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions primarily include, but are not limited to, the discount rate, terminal growth rates, earnings before depreciation and amortization, and capital expenditures forecasts. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making these estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates. We evaluate the merits of each significant assumption, both individually and in the aggregate, used to determine the fair value of the reporting units, as well as the fair values of the corresponding assets and liabilities within the reporting units.

In addition to performing our qualitative assessment of as the beginning of the year, we performed an additional quantitative assessment due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our results and stock price. Neither assessment resulted in the recognition of impairment.

8. Revolving Credit Facility

On May 19, 2016, we entered into a credit agreement with our banks (“2016 Credit Agreement”). The 2016 Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million asset-based revolving credit facility maturing on May 19, 2021. During the fair valueterm of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value.the 2016 Credit Agreement, we may also increase the commitments by up to $200 million, subject to customary conditions. In the first quarter of 2020, we have drawn $330 million of our credit facility. 

Interest is determined by the eurodollar rate, determined by reference to LIBOR, plus a margin of 1.125 percent to 1.375 percent depending on availability under the 2016 Credit Agreement. In addition, we are paying a commitment fee of 0.20 percent per annum on the unused portion of the commitments.

We are not required to comply with any financial covenants unless certain events of default have occurred and are continuing, or if availability under the 2016 Credit Agreement does not exceed the greater of $40 million and 10 percent of the Loan Cap (as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement). There are no restrictions relating to the payment of dividends and share repurchases as long as no default or event of default has occurred and the aggregate principal amount of unused commitments under the 2016 Credit Agreement is not less than 15 percent of the lesser of the aggregate amount of the commitments and the Borrowing Base, determined as of the preceding fiscal month and on a proforma basis for the following six fiscal months.

10. Fair Value Measurements

Our financial assets are recorded at fair value, using a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are categorized as follows:

Level 1

Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 –

Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3 –

Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value-drivers are unobservable.

First Quarter 2020 Form 10-Q Page 11

Graphic

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The fair value of the auction rate security, classified as available-for-sale, is determined by using quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets and accordingly is classified as a Level 2 instrument.

Our derivative financial instruments are valued using market-based inputs to valuation models. These valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, and measures of volatility and therefore are classified as Level 2 instruments.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as property, plant and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill, other intangible assets, and minority investments that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These assets are measured using Level 3 inputs, if determined to be impaired.

Minority interests measured using the fair value option had a carrying value of $142 million and $133 million as of May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019, respectively, and are included within Other assets. During the fourth quarter of 2019, we recorded a non-cash charge of $7 million related to the write-down of such minority investments.

Long-Term Debt

The fair value of long-term debt is determined by using model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value drivers are observable in active markets and therefore are classified as Level 2. The carrying value and estimated fair value of long-term debt were as follows:

11. Earnings Per Share

We account for earnings per share (“EPS”) using the treasury stock method. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net (loss) income for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period used in the basic EPS computation plus dilutive common stock equivalents. The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on EPS.

The computation of basic and diluted EPS is as follows:

Valuation Model and Assumptions

We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of share-based awards. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various and subjective assumptions, including expected term and expected volatility.

7. Leases

The Company is obligatedfollowing table covers option activity under operating leases for almost all of its store properties. In addition, the Company leases certain warehouse distribution centers. Operating lease periods generally range from 5 to 10 years and most store leases contain rent escalation provisions. For leases beginning in 2019 and later, the Company will combine lease components (e.g. rental payments) and non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance costs and utilities). Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We recognize lease expense for these short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term for those arrangements where there is an identified asset and the contract conveys the right to control its use.

10

Table of Contents

FOOT LOCKER, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Since the rates implicit in the leases are not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rates based on the remaining lease term to determine the present value of future lease payments. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. 

Some of the store leases contain renewal options with varying terms and conditions. The Company’s lease term includes options to extend or terminate a lease only when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option.

The majority of operating lease costs relate to retail stores and distribution centers and the expenses are classified within cost of sales. Operating lease costs for non-store rents are included in SG&A.

Certain leases provide for variable lease costs, which primarily include rent payments based on a percentage of store sales, common area maintenance costs, and taxes. These costs are expensed as incurred and are included within cost of sales.

The components of lease cost as of August 3, 2019 were as follows:

Rent expense for the prior year comparative periods is accounted for under previous lease guidance. Rent expense for operating leasesour stock option plans for the thirteen weeks ended August 4, 2018 amounted to $192 million and consisted of minimum and contingent rentals of $186 million and $6 million, respectively. For the twenty-six weeks ended August 4, 2018, rent expense for operating leases amounted to $377 million and consisted of minimum and contingent rentals of $365 million and $13 million, respectively, less sublease income of $1 million. Also, most of the Company’s leases require the payment of certain executory costs such as insurance, maintenance, and other costs in addition to the future minimum lease payments. These costs, including the amortization of lease rights, totaled $37 million and $74 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 4, 2018, respectively.

9. Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial assets recorded at fair value are categorized as follows:

Level 1 –     Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 –    Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3 –Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value-drivers are unobservable.

The fair values of the Company’s equity investments are determined by using quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and therefore are classified as Level 2. The fair value of the auction rate security, classified as available-for-sale, is determined by using quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets and accordingly is classified as a Level 2 instrument. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are valued using market-based inputs to valuation models. These valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, and measures of volatility and therefore are classified as Level 2 instruments.

10. Earnings Per Share

The Company accounts for and discloses earnings per share using the treasury stock method. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding at the endkey employees of the period. Restricted stockCompany. Additionally, RSU awards which contain non-forfeitable rightsare made to dividends, are considered participating securitiesemployees in connection with our long-term incentive program, and are included into nonemployee directors. Each RSU award represents the calculationright to receive one share of basic earnings per share.

Diluted earnings per share reflects the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period used in the basic earnings per share computation plus dilutiveour common stock equivalents.provided that the performance and vesting conditions are satisfied.

Generally, awards fully vest after the passage of time, typically three years. However, RSU awards made in connection with our performance-based long-term incentive program are earned after the attainment of certain performance metrics and, with regards to certain awards, vest after an additional one-year period.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

Restricted shares of the Company’s common stock and restricted stock units (“RSU”) may be awarded to certain officers and key employees of the Company. Additionally, RSU awards are made to employees in connection with the Company’s long-term incentive program and to nonemployee directors. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock provided that the performance and vesting conditions are satisfied. There were 0 outstanding restricted stock awards as of August 3, 2019 and an insignificant number of restricted stock awards were outstanding as August 4, 2018.

Generally, awards fully vest after the passage of time, typically three years. However, RSU awards made in connection with the Company’s performance-based long-term incentive program are earned after the attainment of certain performance metrics and vest after the passage of time. Restricted stock is considered outstanding at the time of grant and the holders have voting rights. Dividends are paid to holders of restricted stock that vest with the passage of time. With regard to performance-based restricted stock, dividends will be accumulated and paid after the performance criteria are met. No dividends are paid or accumulated on any RSU awards.

Compensation expense is recognized using the market value at the date of grant and is amortized over the vesting period, provided the recipient continues to be employed by the Company.

14. Income Taxes

For the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020, we recorded an income tax provision of $5 million, which represented an effective tax rate of negative 4.9 percent on a pretax loss. Included in this quarter’s provision is a $27 million tax charge related to the revaluation of certain intellectual property rights pursuant to a non-U.S. advance pricing agreement.

We have historically calculated the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year income, excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items, for the reporting period. In accordance with the authoritative guidance, we used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate income taxes for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020 because small changes in the estimated level and mix of annual income or loss by jurisdiction would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate making the historical method unreliable.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law in the U.S. to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, governments around the world enacted or implemented various forms of tax relief measures in response to the economic conditions in the wake of COVID-19. We are required to recognize the effects of tax law changes in the period of enactment. We have assessed the applicability of the CARES Act and changes to income tax laws or regulations in other jurisdictions and determined there is no significant affect to our income tax provision for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020. We continue to assess the effect of the CARES Act and ongoing government guidance related to COVID-19 that may be issued.

15. Legal Proceedings

Legal proceedings pending against the Company or its consolidated subsidiaries consist of ordinary, routine litigation, including administrative proceedings, incidental to the business of the Company or businesses that have been sold or discontinued by the Company in past years. These legal proceedings include commercial, intellectual property, customer, environmental, and employment-related claims. Additionally, the Company and certain officers of the Company are defendants in a purported securities law class action in New York. The directors and certain officers of the Company are also defendants in related derivative actions.

Management doesWe do not believe that the outcome of any such legal proceedings pending against the Company or its consolidated subsidiaries, as described above, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’sour consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations, taken as a whole, based upon current knowledge and taking into consideration current accruals. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. Judgments could be rendered or settlements made that could adversely affect the Company’s operating results or cash flows in a particular period.

16. Subsequent Event

Subsequent to the end of first quarter, given the recent social unrest experienced in various cities across the United States, we temporarily closed approximately 130 stores to protect the safety of team members and customers, most of which were already temporarily closed due to COVID-19. Many of these locations may be closed for the foreseeable future given the potentially extensive physical damage. The extent of physical damage, inventory loss, and potential business interruption cannot be determined until we are able to enter the stores safely and assess the damage with our insurance adjusters, such amounts may be significant. The timing and amount of any possible insurance recoveries related to the losses is currently uncertain.

Revenue from the franchised stores was not significant for any of the periods presented. These stores are not included in the operating store count above.

COVID-19 Update

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization designated COVID-19 a pandemic. COVID-19 is having a significant effect on overall economic conditions in nearly all regions around the world and resulted in travel restrictions and business slowdowns or shutdowns. In March, we closed all our stores in North America, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa), and most of Asia Pacific. We also transitioned to a work-from-home environment for all our office team members and temporarily closed our distribution centers. Our stores remained closed for a significant portion of the first quarter, with approximately 100 stores reopened as of May 2, 2020.

We have set up a special management committee and the committee is taking the necessary precautionary measures to protect the health and safety of our team members, as well as following the guidance provided by local health authorities. We have been highly focused on the changes we are making to operate more safely in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. We implemented newly established health protocols, including providing personal protective equipment to our team members and implementing social distancing working practices. Prior to reopening our stores, we are implementing various protocols including: occupancy limits, installing protective shields at the register, encouraging social distancing, providing markers in our queue lines, implementing new processes for handling merchandise returns, and instituting new cleaning regimens, including enhanced cleaning of high-touch surfaces throughout the day.

First Quarter 2020 Form 10-Q Page 18

As we reopen stores, we are doing so in accordance with local government guidelines. As of June 9, 2020, we have approximately 2,200 stores open with an additional 175 expected to open in the next two weeks. We expect to continue reopening stores and other facilities around the world in a phased approach, as more states and countries reopen for retail and after considering our safety protocols. The expected number of store re-openings may be affected by the recent disruptions caused by social unrest across the United States.

We have taken numerous steps to protect the health and well-being of our team members, customers, and communities, while also focusing on further strengthening our financial liquidity and flexibility. On April 21, 2020, we communicated to our United States, Canadian, and Australian employees that we were temporarily furloughing (or its equivalent under applicable local law) the majority of our hourly store and certain of our hourly distribution centers team members. We continued to pay all active employees through the week ended April 26, 2020. Additionally, other measures to preserve our financial position were taken, such as temporarily reducing executive salaries, suspending the cash element of director compensation, temporarily suspending share repurchases and dividends, and by significantly reducing planned capital expenditures.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted into law and provided opportunities for additional liquidity, emergency assistance for individuals, families and businesses affected by the novel coronavirus pandemic. During the first quarter, we recognized benefits from the CARES Act, including federal retention tax credits of up to $5,000 per employee for the wages and health insurance we continued to provide to team members not providing services, a deferral of employer social security taxes for the remainder of 2020, 50 percent of which is payable by December 2021 and the remainder payable by December 2022. Additionally, various jurisdictions in which we operate implemented similar legislation to encourage the continued employment of team members. We intend to continue to review and consider any available potential benefits under the CARES Act or other governmental support for which we qualify. During the first quarter of 2020, we recognized benefits of $40 million from the various governmental support programs. No U.S. employer social security taxes were deferred during the first quarter.

Additionally, the CARES Act contains several significant income tax provisions, including a temporary five-year carryback of net operating losses and relaxed restrictions on business interest deductions, as well as a permanent technical correction to the depreciation method applicable to “qualified improvement property” placed in service after 2017. We are required to recognize the effect of tax law changes in the period of enactment. We have assessed the applicability of this legislation on our income tax provision and determined there is no significant effect to our first quarter 2020 income tax provision.

The continuation of the coronavirus outbreak may cause prolonged or additional intermittent periods of store closures, modified operating schedules, and may result in changes in customer behaviors, including a potential reduction in consumer discretionary spending in our stores. We are experiencing an increase in operating costs for health and safety protocols for both our team members and customers. Due to the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic our results may be further negatively affected and may lead to increased asset recovery and valuation risks, such as long-lived tangible and right-of-use asset impairments and an inability to realize deferred tax assets due to sustaining losses in certain jurisdictions. The uncertainties in the global economy will likely affect the financial viability of some number of our vendors and require other changes to our operations. Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the duration of business disruption, and reduced customer traffic, the related financial affect cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but are expected to materially affect our business for the remainder of 2020. Due to these unprecedented conditions, we have withdrawn our financial guidance for 2020.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to reporting the Company'sour financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company reportswe report certain financial results that differ from what is reported under GAAP.

First Quarter 2020 Form 10-Q Page 19

We have presented certain financial measures identified as non-GAAP, such as sales changes excluding foreign currency fluctuations, adjusted (loss) income before income taxes, adjusted net (loss) income, and adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share.

20

Table of Contents

We present certain amounts as excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, which are also considered non-GAAP measures. Where amounts are expressed as excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, such changes are determined by translating all amounts in both years using the prior-year average foreign exchange rates. Presenting amounts on a constant currency basis is useful to investors because it enables them to better understand the changes in our business that are not related to currency movements.

These non-GAAP measures are presented because we believe they assist investors in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core business or affect comparability. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are useful in assessing our progress in achieving our long-term financial objectives. We estimate the tax effect of all non-GAAP adjustments by applying a marginal tax rate to each of the respective items. The income tax items represent the discrete amount that affected the period.

During the second quarter of 2018, the U.S. Treasury issuedcertain intellectual property rights, pursuant to a notice that delayed the effective date of regulations under Internal Revenue Code Section 987. These regulations, which were promulgated in December 2016, changed our method for determining the tax effects of foreign currency translation gains and losses for our foreign businesses that are operated as branches and are reported in a currency other than the currency of their parent. As a result of the delay in the effective date, the Company updated its calculations for the effect of these regulations, which resulted in an increase to deferred tax assets and a corresponding reduction in our income tax provision in the amount of $1 million.non-U.S. advance pricing agreement.

Segment Reporting

We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated by our chief operating decision maker, our CEO.

Beginning in 2018, the Company changed its organizational and internal reporting structure in order to execute our omni-channel strategy. This change resulted in the combination of our stores and direct-to-customers financial results.

Effective as of 2019, the Company hashave determined that it haswe have three operating segments, North America, EMEA, and Asia Pacific. Our North America operating segment includes the results of the following banners operating in the U.S. and Canada: Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, Lady Foot Locker, Champs Sports, Footaction, and SIX:02,Footaction, including each of their related e-commerce businesses, as well as our Eastbay business that includes internet, catalog, and team sales. Our EMEA operating segment includes the results of the following banners operating in Europe: Foot Locker, Runners Point, Sidestep, and Kids Foot Locker, including each of their related e-commerce businesses. Our Asia Pacific operating segment includes the results of Foot Locker and Kids Foot Locker and the related e-commerce businesses, as applicable, operating in Australia, New Zealand, and Asia. We have further aggregated these operating segments into one reportable segment based upon their shared customer base and similar economic characteristics. Please see Item 1. “Financial Statements,” Note 3, Segment Information for further information on this change.

Results of Operations

We evaluate performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is the banner’s financial results referred to as division (loss) profit. Division (loss) profit reflects (loss) income before income taxes, pension litigation charge,impairment and other charges, corporate expense,expenses, non-operating income, and net interest (expense) income.

The penetration of our direct-to-customer channel increased by 80 basis points to 14.3 percent. For the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019, the stores channel generated positive comparable sales results, however the stores channel had a 0.153.4 percent decline duringdecrease for the thirteen-weeksthirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019. The improvementMay 2, 2020 as a result of the temporary closure of our stores across all of our banners around the world beginning in mid-March due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This decrease was partially offset by strong sales in our direct-to-customers channel, iswhich increased by 14.3 percent for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020 as customer demand was still high for our products.  

In each of our operating segments, the stores business declined significantly due to the temporary closures. The decline was across all product categories and wearer segments. However, as noted above, our direct-to-customers business increased, driven by sales of classic basketball styles and key launch footwear. We noted a significant increase in part to continued positive customer satisfactionour domestic direct-to-customers business, partially as a result of  the federal stimulus payments received by our various e-commerce enhancements.

Eachcustomers. Our previous investments in digital and supply chain capabilities allowed us to leverage this part of our operating segments generated a comparable sales increase during the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2019.

In North America, Foot Locker Canada and Champs Sports led the second quarter results, with increases in the low double digits and mid-single digits, respectively. Foot Locker U.S. generated a low single-digits comparable sales increase, while Eastbay’s sales declined high-single digits. Footaction and Kids Foot Locker continuedbusiness to experience declines consistent with the first quarter. Additionally, North America’s sales were negatively affected by the closure of the SIX:02 banner, as substantially all stores were closed by the end of the second quarter. The decline in Footaction’s sales primarily reflected the lack of product availability of certain key men’s footwear styles. Management is implementing various merchandising initiatives to improve Footaction’s results and will continue to monitor this banner during the third quarter and will assess, if necessary, the effect of various initiatives on the projected performance, which may include an impairment review. Kids Foot Locker’s decline was primarily related to declines in sales of apparel. The decline in Eastbay’s sales for the second quarter was primarily due to softer demand for performance-related products.serve our customers achieving peak daily volume levels.

Our positive EMEA operating segment sales performance was primarily related to our Foot Locker Europe e-commerce business, with Runners Point and Sidestep’s comparable sales remaining relatively flat.Gross Margin

The Asia Pacific operating segment continued to increase both from the store expansion in Asia and increased sales from our operations in Australia, which was primarily the result of growth in our e-commerce business.

The year-to-date comparable sales changes are consistent with the factors noted above.

From a product perspective for the combined channels, the increase in comparable sales for both the quarter and year-to-date periods was primarily driven by footwear. For both periods, the increase was partially offset by a decline in apparel sales. Within the footwear category, sales of women’s and children’s footwear contributed the most to the increase. Court and casual footwear styles continued to resonate well with our customers. Sales of men’s footwear, particularly sales of basketball styles, were negatively affected by the timing of certain product launches and declined slightly for the quarter, as compared with a low single-digit increase for the year-to-date period. Apparel sales declined for both the quarter and year-to-date period across all wearer segments.

Gross margin is calculated as sales minus cost of sales. Cost of sales includes: the cost of merchandise, freight, distribution costs including related depreciation expense, shipping and handling, occupancy and buyers’ compensation. Occupancy costs include rent (including fixed common area maintenance charges and other fixed non-lease components), real estate taxes, general maintenance, and utilities.

Net interest income increased byDue to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our actual and projected results, we determined that a triggering event had occurred for certain underperforming stores and, therefore, we conducted an impairment review during the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, in May 2020, we made the strategic decision to close our Runners Point business. As part of the decision to close the banner, certain Runners Point stores will convert to other banners and approximately 40 Runners Point and Sidestep stores will close prior to their natural lease expiration. We evaluated the long-lived assets, including the right-of-use assets, of 70 stores, which included the Runners Point and Sidestep stores identified for closure, and recorded non-cash charges of $15 million to write down store fixtures, leasehold improvements, and right-of-use assets.  

Also included in both periods are charges of $1 million and $3related to administrative costs incurred in connection with the pension plan reformation.

The Company’s interim provision for income taxes is measured using an annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items that occur within the periods presented. The discrete items discussed below represented the main reasons for the changes in the effective tax rate.

The CompanyWe regularly assessesassess the adequacy of the Company’sour provisions for income tax contingencies in accordance with applicable authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes. As a result, the Companywe may adjust the reserves for unrecognized tax benefits considering new facts and developments, such as changes to interpretations of relevant tax law, assessments from taxing authorities, settlements with taxing authorities, and lapses of statutes of limitation. The changes in the tax reserves were not significant for any of the periods presented.

During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019. TheMay 2, 2020, we recorded a $27 million tax charge related to the revaluation of certain intellectual property rights pursuant to a non-U.S. advance pricing agreement. In addition, we recognized a $2 million tax benefit for the reversal of a withholding tax accrual that is no longer required.

Excluding the charge related to the revaluation and the benefit from the withholding tax reversal, the effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended August 4, 2018 includedMay 2, 2020 would have been approximately 20 percent, a tax benefit of $3 million from a reserve releasedecrease as compared with the corresponding prior-year period, primarily due to a settlementthe mix of an international tax examination.loss in the various jurisdictions in which we operate.

For the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019, the Company recognized a tax expense of $2 million due to an adjustment to U.S. tax on foreign income attributable to tax reform.

During the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019, the Company recorded charges totaling $14 million, which primarily related to the costs to terminate the SIX:02 leases, the tax benefit recorded in connection with these charges was $4 million.

For the twenty-six weeks ended August 3,May 4, 2019, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $3 million due to an adjustment to a foreign tax credit valuation allowance.

ForWe have historically calculated the twenty-sixprovision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to income, excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items, for the reporting period. In accordance with the authoritative guidance, we used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for the thirteen weeks ended August 4, 2018, the Company reduced its provisional net expense related to mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign sourced net earnings by $1 million. In addition, the Company reduced its income tax provisionMay 2, 2020 because small changes in the amountestimated level and mix of $1 million as aannual income or loss by jurisdiction would result of the delayin significant changes in the estimated annual effective date of certain tax regulations.

The Company currently expects itsrate making the historical method unreliable. Due to this volatility, we cannot forecast the expected full-year tax rate to approximate 27.5 percent excluding the effect of any nonrecurring items that may occur.at this time. The actual tax rate willcould vary significantly depending on the level and mix of income earnedor loss in the various jurisdictions in which we operate.

Net Income

For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019,May 2, 2020, we reported a net loss of $110 million as compared to net income decreased by $28of $172 million or 31.8 percent, and by $21 million, or 8.3 percent, respectively, as compared within the corresponding prior-year periods.period. Diluted loss per share was $1.06 as compared to diluted earnings per share decreased by 26.7 percent to $0.55 per share, and by 2.8 percent to $2.08 per share as compared withof $1.52 for the corresponding prior-year period.thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our primary source of liquidity continues to be cash flow from operations, while the principal uses of cash are to:to fund inventory and other working capital requirements; finance capital expenditures related to store openings, store remodelings, internet and mobile sites, information systems, and other support facilities; make retirement plan contributions, quarterly dividend payments, and interest payments; and fund other cash requirements to support the development of our short-term and long-term operating strategies. We also from time to time may make investments in other companies that we feel can enable us to achievebelieve support our vision of serving youth culture. We generally finance real estate with operating leases. We believe our cash, cash equivalents, and future cash flow from operations will be adequate to fund these requirements.

The Company may also from time to time repurchase its common stock or seek to retire or purchase outstanding debt through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. Share repurchases and retirement of debt, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, strategic considerations, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in an effort to conserve cash, we temporarily suspended our share repurchase program. As of August 3, 2019, $1.08 billionMay 2, 2020, $867 million remained available under the Company’s current 3-year share repurchase program.

27

Table Also, after thoughtful consideration by our Board of ContentsDirectors, we suspended our second quarter dividend distribution to preserve our balance sheet strength and flexibility. While returning capital to our shareholders continues to be one of our capital allocation priorities, given the current environment, we believe this is the prudent and responsible action to take at this time and one that will ultimately enable us to create more shareholder value over the long term. Our Board of Directors will continue to evaluate potential for future dividend distributions on a quarterly basis.

Any material adverse change in customer demand, fashion trends, competitive market forces, or customer acceptance of our merchandise mix, retail locations and websites, uncertainties related to the effect of competitive products and pricing, our reliance on a few key vendors for a significant portion of our merchandise purchases and risks associated with global product sourcing, economic conditions worldwide, the effects of currency fluctuations, uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors listed under the heading “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” could affect our ability to continue to fund our needs from business operations.

The decrease in cash provided by operating activities, compared with the same period of last year, reflected a decrease in net income and lower net inflows associated with changes in working capital.higher inventories, which were partially offset by higher accounts payable. Also, during the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2019, we contributed $55 million to our U.S. qualified pension plan primarily representing the funds available in the qualified settlement fund established in connection with our pension litigation matter, which compares with $30 million contributed during the corresponding prior-year period. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company paid class counsel $97 million in connection with the pension litigation matter.

As of May 2, 2020, we have withheld approximately $90 million of lease payments as we continue to negotiate rent deferrals or abatements with our landlords for the period that our stores were closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Capital expenditures decreased forFor the twenty-sixthirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019May 2, 2020, capital expenditures increased by $34$7 million to $52 million, as compared with the corresponding prior-year period. This represented an increase in spending on store projects and technology projects partially offset by a decrease related to logistics. The Company’sOur full-year capital spending is expected to be approximately $250$143 million, which is approximately $25$128 million lower than the target that was established at the beginning of the year and reflects changes in the timing of certain projects.projects due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, this is $5 million higher than the amount recently announced, a result of strategic decisions made to convert certain Runners Point stores to our other banners as well as to open and remodel additional stores in Australia. The revised forecast includes $155$83 million related to the remodeling or relocation of approximately 16055 existing stores and the opening of approximately 6560 new stores, as well as $95$60 million for the development of information systems, websites, and infrastructure, including supply chain initiatives.

As part of this plan, select Runners Point stores will be converted to either Sidestep or Foot Locker stores, with approximately 40 remaining Runners Point stores and certain Sidestep stores expected to close prior to lease expiration.

In addition, we plan to restructure and consolidate the Runners Point and Sidestep support and logistics functions into Foot Locker Europe's headquarters in the Netherlands, in compliance with local legislation. We expect this transition to occur largely over the remainder of fiscal 2020 and to wind down the Runners Point business by yearend.
