G-III APPAREL GROUP, LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NoteNOTE 1 – Basis of PresentationBASIS OF PRESENTATION

As used in these financial statements, the term “Company” or “G-III” refers to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. The Company designs, sources and markets an extensive range of apparel, including outerwear, dresses, sportswear, swimwear, women’s suits and women’s performance wear, as well as women’s handbags, footwear, small leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage. The Company also operates retail stores and licenses its proprietary brands forunder several product categories.

The Company consolidates the accounts of its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Fabco Holding B.V. (“Fabco”) is a Dutch joint venture limited liability company that is 75% owned by the Company and is treated as a consolidated majority-owned subsidiary. In October 2021, the Company purchased Sonia Rykiel, a wholly-owned operating subsidiary. The results of Sonia Rykiel are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V. (“KLH”) is a Dutch limited liability company that was 19% owned by the Company through May 30, 2022 and was accounted for during that time using the equity method of accounting. Effective May 31, 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 81% interest in KLH that it did not previously own and, as a result, KLH began being treated as a consolidated wholly-owned subsidiary. KL North America B.V. (“KLNA”) is a Dutch joint venture limited liability company that was 49% owned by the Company and 51% indirectly owned by KLH through May 30, 2022 and was accounted for during that time using the equity method of accounting. Effective May 31, 2022, KLNA became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company as a result of the Company’s acquisition of the remaining 81% interest in KLH it did not previously own. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of KLH are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning May 31, 2022.

Vilebrequin International SA (“Vilebrequin”), a Swiss corporation that is wholly-owned by the Company, KLH, Fabco Holding B.V. (“Fabco”) and Sonia Rykiel, which the Company purchased in October 2021, report results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by the Company. Accordingly, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH, Fabco and Sonia Rykiel are and will be, included in the financial statements for the quarter ended or ending closest to the Company’s fiscal quarter end. For example, with respect to the Company’s results for the six-monththree-month period ended July 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, the results of Vilebrequin, Fabco, KLH and Sonia Rykiel are included for the six-monththree-month period ended June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. For the three and six month periodsyear ended June 30,December 31, 2022, the results of KLH, which includes KLNA, are included for the one month period endedfrom June 30,1, 2022 and thethrough December 31, 2022. The results of the Company’s previous 49% ownership interest in KLNA and 19% ownership interest in KLH are included for the period from February 1, 2022 through May 30, 2022. The Company’s retail operations segment reports on a 52/53-week53 week fiscal year. For fiscalThe Company’s three-month periods ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 were each 13-week periods for the threeretail operations segment. For fiscal 2024 and six-month2023, the three-month periods for the retail operations segment were each 13-week and 26-week periods, respectively, and ended on JulyApril 29, 2023 and April 30, 2022, and August 1, 2021, respectively.

The results for the three and six months ended July 31, 2022April 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year, given the seasonal nature of the Company’s business and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business. The accompanying financial statements included herein are unaudited. All adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period presented have been reflected.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 20222023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar (reporting currency), are translated from the foreign currency into U.S. dollars at period-end rates, while income and expenses are translated at the weighted-average exchange rates for the period. The related translation adjustments are reflected as a foreign currency translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders’ equity.

The allowance for doubtful accounts for wholesale trade receivables is estimated based on several factors. In circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations (such as in the case of bankruptcy filings (including potential bankruptcy filings), extensive delay in payment or substantial downgrading by credit rating agencies), a specific reserve for bad debt is recorded against amounts due from that customer to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. For all other wholesale customers, an allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable at the end of the reporting period for financial statements, assessments of collectability based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions. The Company considers both current and forecasted future economic conditions in determining the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts.

The allowance for doubtful accounts for retail trade receivables is estimated at the credit card chargeback rate applied to the previous 90 days of credit card sales. In addition, the Company considers both current and forecasted future economic conditions in determining the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts.

NoteNOTE 3 – InventoriesINVENTORIES

Wholesale inventories, which comprise a significant portion of the Company’s inventory, are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Retail and Vilebrequin inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the weighted average method) or net realizable value. Substantially all of the Company’s inventories consist of finished goods.

The inventory return asset, which consists of the amount of goods that are anticipated to be returned by customers, was $9.3$12.9 million, $11.2$16.4 million and $18.9$19.2 million as of July 31,April 30, 2023, April 30, 2022 July 31, 2021 and January 31, 2022,2023, respectively. The inventory return asset is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Inventory held on consignment by the Company’s customers totaled $5.7$7.6 million, $4.7$5.9 million and $4.5$6.6 million at July 31,April 30, 2023, April 30, 2022 July 31, 2021 and January 31, 2022,2023, respectively. Consignment inventory is held by the Company’s customers. The Company reflects this inventory on its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NoteNOTE 4 – Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsFAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy for a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in its valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-based (observable) or internally-derived (unobservable). A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on unobservable prices or valuation techniques that are significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in its condensed consolidated balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The fair value of the Company’s secured notes is based on their current market price as of July 31, 2022.April 30, 2023. The carrying amount of the Company’s variable rate debt approximates the fair value, as interest rates change with the market rates. Furthermore, the carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts.

The 2% note in the principal amount of $125 million (the “LVMH Note”) issued to LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton Inc. (“LVMH”) in connection with the acquisition of DKNY and Donna Karan was recorded on the balance sheet at a discount of $40.0 million in accordance with ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurements. For purposes of this fair value disclosure, the Company based its fair value estimate for the LVMH Note on the initial fair value as determined at the date of the acquisition of DKNY and Donna Karan and records the amortization using the effective interest method over the term of the LVMH Note.

The fair value of the LVMH Note was considered a Level 3 valuation in the fair value hierarchy.

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company’s non-financial assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include long-lived assets, which consist primarily of property and equipment and operating lease assets. The Company reviews these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable. For assets that are not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the asset or asset group and its estimated fair value. For operating lease assets, the Company determines the fair value of the assets by discounting the estimated market rental rates over the remaining term of the lease. These fair value measurements are considered level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022,2023, the Company recorded a $1.5$2.7 million impairment charge primarily related to leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures and operating lease assets at certain DKNY, Karl Lagerfeld Paris and Vilebrequin stores as a result of the performance atof these stores.

NoteNOTE 5 – LeasesLEASES

The Company leases retail stores, warehouses, distribution centers, office space and certain equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Most leases are for a term of one to ten years.  Some leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to ten years.  Several of the Company’s retail store leases include an option to terminate the lease based on failure to achieve a specified sales volume. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion. The exercise of lease termination options is generally by mutual agreement between the Company and the lessor.

Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

On the effective date of the acquisition, the Company’s previously held 19% investment in KLH and 49% investment in KLNA were remeasured at fair value using a market approach based on the purchase price of the acquisition and a discount for lack of control related to the Company’s previously held minority investment in KLH. As a result of this remeasurement, a $30.9non-cash gain of $27.1 million gain was recorded as of the effective date of the acquisition.

The addition of KLH to the Company’s portfolio of owned brands advances several of its key priorities,strategic initiatives, including increasing its direct ownership of brands and their licensing opportunities and further diversifying its global presence. This acquisition offers additional opportunities to expand the Company’s international growth by further developing its European-based brands, which alreadyalso include Vilebrequin and Sonia Rykiel.

additional $36.9 million in both total assets and total liabilities, primarily related to goodwill, deferred tax assets and liabilities, operating lease assets, inventories, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, customer relationships and operating lease liabilities.

The Company recognized goodwill of approximately $46.1$84.3 million in connection with the acquisition of KLH. The goodwill was assigned to the Company’s wholesale operations reporting unit. The Company intends to make an election under Internal Revenue Code Section 338(g) to amortize the total goodwill and intangible assets over a 15 year period.period for income tax purposes in the United States.

The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired were based on assumptions and estimates made by management using unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available. The fair values of the trademarks were determined using the relief from royalty method and the fair value of the customer relationships were determined using an income approach. The Company classifies these intangibles as Level 3 fair value measurements. Identifiable intangible assets acquired include the following (in thousands):

The purchase price allocation for acquired companies can be modified for up to one year from the date of acquisition.

Net Sales, Operating Income and Pro Forma Impact of the Transaction

The amount of net sales and operating income of KLH since the acquisition date included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended July 31, 2022 were $18.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company considers reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial data is based on preliminary estimates and assumptions set forth in the accompanying notes. Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect (i) the changes in depreciation and amortization expense resulting from fair value adjustments to intangible assets, (ii) amortization of the inventory fair value adjustment, (iii) incentive compensation arrangements expenses acquired as part of the acquisition agreements, (iv) elimination of royalty expenses related to the Company’s license agreement with KLNA, (v) the taxation of G-III’s and KLH’s combined income as a result of the acquisition, as well as the tax effects related to such pro forma adjustments, (vi) the $30.9 million gain recorded to remeasure to fair value the previously held investments in KLH and KLNA as though the gain was recorded on February 1, 2021 and (vii) adjustments for accounting policy changes to conform to G-III’s presentation. The pro forma results do not include any realized or anticipated cost synergies or other effects of the integration of KLH. Accordingly, such pro forma amounts are not indicative of the results that actually would have occurred had the acquisition been completed on February 1, 2021, nor are they indicative of the future operating results of the combined company.

Impairment

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for under the purchase method. The Company reviews and tests its goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if

15

Table of Contents

events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may be impaired. The Company performs its goodwill test as of January 31 of each year using a qualitative evaluation or a quantitative test using an income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis methodology. The discounted cash flow approach requires that certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding industry economic factors and future profitability. The Company also performs its annual test for intangible assets with indefinite lives as of January 31 of each year using a qualitative evaluation or a quantitative test using a relief from royalty method, another form of the income approach. The relief from royalty method requires assumptions regarding industry economic factors and future profitability.

The Company performed its annual tests of its wholesale reporting unit and its indefinite-lived trademarks as of January 31, 2022 and determined that no impairment existed at that date. The result of the Company’s annual test determined that the estimated fair value of its wholesale reporting unit and its indefinite-lived trademarks were substantially in excess of their carrying values.

The Company’s indefinite-lived trademark balance is primarily composed of the Donna Karan/DKNY trademark that was acquired in fiscal 2017 and the Karl Lagerfeld trademark that was acquired in fiscal 2023.

The fair value of the Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are considered a Level 3 valuation in the fair value hierarchy.

Note 8NOTE 7 – Net Income per Common ShareNET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share, when applicable, is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential dilutive common shares, consisting of unvested restricted stock unit awards and stock options outstanding during the period. Approximately 301,300302,200 and 205,400113,300 shares of common stock have been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation for the three and six months ended July 31,April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Approximately 15,100 and 8,200 shares of common stock have been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation for the three and six months ended July 31, 2021. All share-based payments outstanding that vest based on the achievement of performance conditions, and for which the respective performance conditions have not been achieved, have been excluded from the diluted per share calculation.

These debt issuance costs have been deferred and are classified in assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 835.

Senior Secured Notes

In August 2020, the Company completed a private debt offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The terms of the Notes are governed by an indenture (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”). The net proceeds of the Notes have beenwere used (i) to repay the $300 million that was outstanding under the Company’s prior term loan facility due 2022 (the “Term Loan”), (ii) to pay related fees and expenses and (iii) for general corporate purposes.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.875% per year payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year.

The Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior-priority secured basis by the Company’s current and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any of the Company’s credit facilities, including the Company’s ABL facility (the “ABL Facility”) pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement, or certain future capital markets indebtedness of the Company or guarantors.

The Notes and the related guarantees are secured by (i) first priority liens on the Company’s Cash Flow Priority Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), and (ii) a second-priority lien on the Company’s ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), in each case subject to permitted liens described in the Indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes and execution of the Indenture, the Company and the Guarantors entered into a pledge and security agreement (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Collateral Agent.

The Notes are subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement which governs the relative rights of the secured parties in respect of the ABL Facility and the Notes (the “Intercreditor Agreement”). The Intercreditor Agreement restricts the actions permitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral on behalf of the holders of the Notes. The Notes are also subject to the terms of the LVMH Note subordination agreement which governs the relative rights of the secured parties in respect of the LVMH Note, the ABL Facility and the Notes.

The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time and from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date.

1714

Table of Contents

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” and in January 2021, issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform: Scope”. Both of these updates aim to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. These updates provide optional expedients and exceptions, if certain criteria are met, for applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The amendments were effective upon issuance and allow companies to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis through December 31, 2022. The Company has reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applied this ASUapplicable or not expected to any existing contractshave a significant impact to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 2.         Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Unless the context otherwise requires, “G-III,” “us,” “we” and “our” refer to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that year. For example, our fiscal year ending January 31, 2023 is referred to as “fiscal 2023.”

Vilebrequin, KLH, Fabco and Sonia Rykiel report results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by G-III. Accordingly, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH, Fabco and Sonia Rykiel are, and will be, included in our financial statements for the quarter ended or ending closest to G-III’s fiscal quarter end. For example, with respect to our results for the six-monththree-month period ended July 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, the results of Vilebrequin, Fabco, KLH and Sonia Rykiel are included for the six-monththree-month period ended June 30, 2022 and for KLH for the period from the date of acquisition to June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. We accounted for our investment in each of KLH and KLNA using the equity method of accounting through May 30, 2022. As of May 31, 2022, KLH is accounted for as our consolidated wholly-owned subsidiary and KLNA is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours. Our retail operations segment uses a 52/53-week fiscal year. For fiscal 2023 and 2022, the three and six-monththree-month period for the retail operations segment were each 13-week and 26-week periods and ended on JulyApril 29, 2023 and April 30, 2022, and August 1, 2021, respectively.

our success. Although our portfolio of brands is aimed at diversifying our risks in this regard, misjudging shifts in consumer preferences could have a negative effect on our business. Our success in the future will depend on our ability to design products that are accepted in the marketplace, source the manufacture of our products on a competitive basis, and continue to diversify our product portfolio and the markets we serve.

We believe that consumers prefer to buy brands they know, and we have continually sought to increase the portfolio of name brands we can offer through different tiers of retail distribution, for a wide array of products at a variety of price points. We have increased the portfolio of brands we offer through licenses, acquisitions and joint ventures. We focus our efforts on the sale of products under our five power brands. Effective May 31, 2022, we own three of our power brands (DKNY, Donna Karan and Karl Lagerfeld) and license two of our power brands (Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger). It is our objective to continue to expand our product offerings and we are continually discussing new licensing opportunities with brand owners and seeking to acquire established brands.

Recent Developments

On April 29, 2022,Repositioning and Expansion of Donna Karan

We acquired the DKNY and Donna Karan brands, two of the most iconic American fashion brands, in December 2016. We initially repositioned and relaunched DKNY and have successfully grown the brand to approximately $600.0 million in annual net sales. We are now focused on the repositioning and expansion of the Donna Karan brand for Spring 2024. The new Donna Karan will be a modern system of dressing created to appeal to a woman’s senses on every level, addressing the full lifestyle needs of a new customer. Our Donna Karan product is expected to be distributed in better department stores, digital channels and our own Donna Karan website in North America and internationally. Donna Karan is widely considered a top fashion brand and is recognized as one of the most famous designer names in American fashion. We believe that the strength of the Donna Karan brand, along with our success with the DKNY brand, demonstrates the potential for our new Donna Karan products.

License Agreement for Nautica Brand

In March 2023, we entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”)long-term license with Authentic Brands Group for the Nautica brand in North America.

We plan to produce products under the Nautica brand across a number of categories starting with a group of investors pursuantfull women’s jeanswear collection and then expanding in a phased approach into additional categories including sportswear, suit separates and dresses. The new five-year license agreement, effective beginning in January 2024, includes three extensions, for five years each. First deliveries are expected to which we agreedbegin in January 2024. The product is expected to acquire, on the terms set forthbe distributed in better department stores, digital channels and subject to the conditions set forthNautica’s stores and website in North America and franchised stores globally. We believe that significant opportunity exists in the Purchase Agreement,better women’s apparel space in categories where we have strong expertise. The Nautica brand joins our portfolio of some of the remaining 81% in interests in KLH that we did not already own, for an aggregate consideration of €202.0 million ($216.8 million) in cash, subject to certain adjustments. The acquisition closed on May 31, 2022. We funded the purchase price from cash on hand. See Note 6 – Karl Lagerfeld Acquisitionlargest American brands in the accompanying Notesworld.

Segments

We report based on two segments: wholesale operations and retail operations.

Our wholesale operations segment includes sales of products to retailers under owned, licensed and private label brands, as well as sales related to the Vilebrequin and Karl Lagerfeld businesses, other than sales of product under the Karl

Lagerfeld Paris brand from our retail stores and digital outlets. Wholesale revenues also include royalty revenues from license agreements related to our owned trademarks including DKNY, Donna Karan, Karl Lagerfeld, Vilebrequin, Sonia Rykiel, G.H. Bass and Andrew Marc.

Our retail operations segment consists primarily of direct sales to consumers through our company-operated stores and through digital channels. Our company-operated stores consistsconsist primarily of DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores, as well as the digital channels for DKNY, Donna Karan, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Wilsons Leather. Substantially all DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores are operated as outlet stores.

Trends Affecting Our Business

Industry Trends

Significant trends that affect the apparel industry include retail chains closing unprofitable stores, an increased focus by retail chains and others on expanding digital sales and providing convenience-driven fulfillment options, the continued consolidation of retail chains and the desire on the part of retailers to consolidate vendors supplying them.

We sell our products online through retail partners such as macys.com, nordstrom.com and dillards.com, each of which has a substantial online business. As sales of apparel through digital channels continue to increase, we are developing additional digital marketing initiatives on both our web sites and third party web sites and through social media. We are investing in digital personnel,

marketing, logistics, planning, distribution and other strategic opportunities to expand our digital footprint. Our digital business consists of our own web platforms at www.dkny.com, www.donnakaran.com, www.ghbass.com, www.vilebrequin.com, www.andrewmarc.com, www.wilsonsleather.com, www.soniarykiel.com, www.karllagerfeldparis.com and www.soniarykiel.com. We also sell Karl Lagerfeld Paris products on our www.karllagerfeldparis.com website and Karl Lagerfeld products on our www.karl.com website.www.karl.com. In addition, we sell to leading online retail partners such as Amazon, Fanatics, Zalando and Zappos and have made minority investments in two different e-commerce retailers.

A number of retailers have experienced financial difficulties, which in some cases have resulted in bankruptcies, liquidations and/or store closings. The financial difficulties of a retail customer of ours could result in reduced business with that customer. We may also assume higher credit risk relating to receivables of a retail customer experiencing financial difficulty that could result in higher reserves for doubtful accounts or increased write-offs of accounts receivable. We attempt to mitigate credit risk from our customers by closely monitoring accounts receivable balances and shipping levels, as well as the ongoing financial performance and credit standing of customers.

Retailers are seeking to differentiate their offerings by devoting more resources to the development of exclusive products, whether by focusing on their own private label products or on products produced exclusively for a retailer by a national brand manufacturer. Exclusive brands are only made available to a specific retailer, and thus customers loyal to their brands can only find them in the stores of that retailer.

We have attempted to respond to general trends in our industry by continuing to focus on selling products with recognized brand equity, by attention to design, quality and value and by improving our sourcing capabilities. We have also responded with the strategic acquisitions made by us, such as our recent purchase of the interests not owned by us that resulted in Karl Lagerfeld becoming aour wholly-owned subsidiary, and new license agreements entered into by us that added to our portfolio of licensed and proprietary brands and helped diversify our business by adding new product lines and expanding distribution channels. We believe that our broad distribution capabilities help us to respond to the various shifts by consumers between distribution channels and that our operational capabilities will enable us to continue to be a vendor of choice for our retail partners.

Inflation and Interest Rates

Inflationary pressures have impacted the entire economy, including our industry. We are experiencingRecent historic high rates of inflation, including increased costs in many aspectsfuel and food prices, has led to a softening of our business, including our freight costs as discussed below under “Supply Chain”. We expect inflationary pressures to continue to impact our business throughout fiscal 2023. We have implemented price increases on many of our products. Our price increases are an effort to mitigate the effect of higher costs, although, the impact of price increases on consumer demand and onincreased promotional activity in our categories and may lead to further challenges to grow our sales. Ongoing inflation may also negatively impact our cost structure and labor costs in the future.

The Federal Reserve raised interest rates multiple times in fiscal 2023, as well as thus far in fiscal 2024 in response to concerns about inflation and may continue to do so in the remainder of fiscal 2024. Higher interest rates increase the costs of our borrowing under our revolving credit facility, may increase economic uncertainty and may negatively affect consumer spending. Volatility in interest rates may adversely affect our business or our customers. If the equity and results of operations is uncertain.credit markets deteriorate, it may make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult to obtain in a timely manner or on favorable terms, or at all.

Foreign currency fluctuation

Our consolidated operations are impacted by the relationships between our reporting currency, the U.S. Dollar, and those of our non-United States subsidiaries whose functional/local currency is other than the U.S. Dollar, primarily the Euro. We continue to expect volatilityVolatility in the global foreign currency exchange rates which may have a negative impact on the reported results of certain of our non-United States subsidiaries in the future, when translated to the U.S. Dollar.

Supply Chain

NumerousIn our two previous fiscal years, there were numerous factors disrupting the shipping industry havethat negatively affected transit times from our overseas suppliers, as well as our ability to ensure that we arewere able to import our product in a manner that allows for timely delivery to our customers. Congestion at ports of origin

More recently, shipping costs and ports of entrytransit times have caused significant changesreturned to comparable, and in some cases lower than, pre-pandemic levels. We continue to monitor the itineraries of our steamship carriers. Truck driver shortages, shortages of truck equipment such as the chassistransportation market for circumstances that the containers are transported on,may cause delays and the inability of ports to provide reliable pick uptimes, have also negatively impactedimpact our ability to timely receive goods.

Our shipping costs have increased as a result of higher contractual shipping rates resulting from increased demand for container space and the need to purchase additional container space on the secondary market at spot rates. While increased spot rates have moderated, they are still higher than pre-pandemic levels. Our ability to secure container space has

However, even when we are able to secure space, ports around the world are experiencing congestion, slowing transit times of product through ports of origin and ports of entry which negatively affects our ability to timely receive and deliver product to our retail partners and customers.in a timely manner.

As a result of these supply chain disruptions, in fiscal 2023, we have accelerated production schedules to allow for more lead time and to accommodate the anticipated extended transit times from our overseas suppliers in an effort to import our product in a manner that allows for timely delivery to our customers. Product has been received earlier than anticipated due to the accelerated production schedules and transit times that were not delayed as much as planned. As a result, our inventory levels arewere, and continue to be, higher than expected.in the comparable period of prior years.

The elevatedElevated inventory levels are resultingand disruptions in the shipping industry contributed to us incurring significant demurrage charges in fiscal 2023. We believe we have taken sufficient measures to ensure that we do not again incur these charges in our current fiscal year, including reducing product buys to account for current inventory levels, adjusting our production schedules and contracting with vendors to provide storage options domestically and process capacity pressures within our distribution centers.overseas, if needed. We expect these issues to continue intohave inventory levels that are higher than normal through the first half of calendar 2023.fiscal 2024.

Excess Inventory in the demand inMarketplace

Higher marketplace inventories and a more efficient manner in fiscal 2023 and, asrapidly changing economic environment have caused retailers to rationalize their inventory levels. As a result, our reliance on the secondary market will be reduced. We are actively managing shipments based on delivery dates to better utilize contracted cargo space and attemptretailers have increased promotional activity to reduce their inventory. While we have planned for a certain amount of promotional activity, additional promotional activity in excess of what we have planned for could have an adverse effect on our reliance on the secondary market.results of operations.

Impact of COVID-19

The continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business operations remains uncertain and cannot be predicted. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on continued developments in the United States and around the world in the public and private responses to the pandemic. New information may emerge concerning the severity of the outbreak and the

spread of variants, including the Delta, Omicron or other variants of the COVID-19 virus in locations that are important to our business. Actions taken to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact may change or become more restrictive if additional waves of infections occur. We continue to monitor the latest developments regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and have incorporated certain assumptions regarding the duration, severity and global macroeconomic impact of the pandemic into our financial outlook.

War in Ukraine

The current war in Ukraine and the continued threat of terrorism, heightened security measures and military action in response to acts of terrorism or civil unrest has at times, disrupted commerce and intensified concerns regarding the United States and world economies. Less than 1% of our revenue in fiscal 20222023 was generated in Russia and Ukraine. As such, we do not expect thatHowever, the warimposition of additional sanctions by the United States and/or foreign governments, as well as the sanctions already in Ukraine will have a direct material negativeplace, could lead to restrictions related to sales and our supply chain for which the financial impact on our results of operations in fiscal 2023. However,is uncertain. In addition, the war has also led to, and may lead to further, broader unfavorable macroeconomic implications, including unfavorable foreign exchange rates, increases in fuel prices, food shortages, a weakening of the European economy, lower consumer demand and volatility in financial markets. These implications of the war in Ukraine could have a material adverse effect on our business and our results of operations.

We recorded $2.0April 30, 2023 compared to $3.4 million of foreign currency losses during the three months ended July 31, 2022 compared to foreign currency losses of $0.4 million during the same period last year. We recorded $0.3 million in income from unconsolidated affiliates during the three months ended July 31, 2022 compared to $1.8 million in income from unconsolidated affiliates in the same period last year. In addition, we recorded $1.0 million in income from net gains on investments in equity securities.

Income tax expense was $13.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2022 compared to $9.2 million for the same period last year. Our effective tax rate decreased to 26.4% in the current year’s quarter from 32.6% in last year’s comparable quarter. This decrease is primarily due to an increase in forecasted foreign pretax income, which is taxed at a lower tax rate compared to the tax rates associated with income based in the United States.

Net sales of our retail operations segment increased to $59.0 million for the six months ended July 31, 2022 from $46.7 million in the same period last year. This increase is primarily due to an increase in our store count in the current year. The number of retail stores operated by us increased from 50 at July 31, 2021 to 59 at July 31, 2022. In addition, the continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in increased store traffic and comparable store sales increases during the three months ended July 31, 2022 compared to the same period last year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $376.5 million in the six months ended July 31, 2022 from $288.4 million in the same period last year. The increase in expenses was primarily due to an increase of $31.3 million in compensation expense, primarily from increased salary and bonus expense accruals. The increase in expenses was also due to a $20.6 million increase in third-party warehouse and facility expenses and a $15.5 million increase in advertising primarily related to increased sales and inventory levels resulting from our accelerated production schedules. In addition, professional fees increased $3.8 million primarily due to expenses associated with the acquisition of the Karl Lagerfeld business. The inclusion of the results of KLH for one month in the period increased selling, general and administrative expenses by $10.4 million which included $5.0 million of compensation expense, primarily related to bonus accruals, and $1.0 million of acquisition related expenses.

Cash Availability

We rely on our cash flows generated from operations, in most periods, cash and cash equivalents and the borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility to meet the cash requirements of our business. The cash requirements of our business are primarily related to the seasonal buildup in inventories, compensation paid to employees, payments to vendors in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, interest payments on debt obligations and income tax payments. During fiscal 2024, the principal amount of $125 million under the LVMH Note will become due and payable.

As of July 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants under our debt agreements.senior secured notes and revolving credit facility.

Senior Secured Notes

In August 2020, we completed a private debt offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of our 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes). The terms of the Notes are governed by an indenture, dated as of August 7, 2020 (the “Indenture”), among us, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”). The net proceeds of the Notes have beenwere used (i) to repay the $300 million that was outstanding under our prior term loan facility due 2022 (the “Term Loan”), (ii) to pay related fees and expenses and (iii) for general corporate purposes.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.875% per year payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year.

The Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior-priority secured basis by our current and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any of our credit facilities, including our ABL facility (the “ABL Facility”) pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement, or certain future capital markets indebtedness of ours or the guarantors.

The Notes and the related guarantees are secured by (i) first priority liens on our Cash Flow Priority Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), and (ii) a second-priority lien on our ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), in each case subject to permitted liens described in the Indenture.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes and execution of the Indenture, we and the Guarantors entered into a pledge and security agreement (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), among us, the Guarantors and the Collateral Agent.

The Notes are subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement which governs the relative rights of the secured parties in respect of the ABL Facility and the Notes (the “Intercreditor Agreement”). The Intercreditor Agreement restricts the actions permitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral on behalf of the holders of the Notes.

The Notes are also subject to the terms of the LVMH Note subordination agreement which governs the relative rights of the secured parties in respect of the LVMH Note, the ABL Facility and the Notes.

We may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time and from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date.

If we experience a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture), we are required to offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, incur restrictions on the ability of our restricted subsidiaries that are not guarantors to pay dividends or make certain other payments, create or incur certain liens, sell assets and subsidiary stock, impair the security interests, transfer all or substantially all of our assets or enter into merger or consolidation transactions, and enter into transactions with affiliates.

We incurred debt issuance costs totaling $8.5 million related to the Notes. In accordance with ASC 835, the debt issuance costs have been deferred and are presented as a contra-liability, offsetting the outstanding balance of the Notes, and are amortized over the remaining life of the Notes. In addition, we had unamortized debt issuance costs of $6.1 million associated with the Term Loan. Upon repayment of the Term Loan, these debt issuance costs were fully extinguished and charged to interest expense in our results of operations.

Second Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement

In August 2020, our subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., Riviera Sun, Inc., CK Outerwear, LLC, AM Retail Group, Inc. and The Donna Karan Company Store LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into the second amended and restated credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with the Lenders named therein and with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The ABL Credit Agreement is a five year senior secured credit facility subject to a springing maturity date if, subject to certain conditions, the LVMH Note is not refinanced or repaid prior to the date that is 91 days prior to the date of any relevant payment thereunder. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $650 million. We and certain of our subsidiaries G-III Apparel Canada ULC, Gabrielle Studio, Inc., Donna Karan International Inc. and Donna Karan Studio LLC (the “Guarantors”), are Loan Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement.

The ABL Credit Agreement refinanced, amended and restated the Amended Credit Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2016 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to August 7, 2020, the “Prior Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers and the Loan Guarantors (each as defined therein) party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as the administrative agent thereunder.. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for borrowings of up to $650 million. The ABL Credit Agreement extended the maturity date of this facility from December 2021 to August 2025, subject to a springing maturity date if, subject to certain conditions, the LVMH Note is not refinanced or repaid prior to the date that is 91 days prior to the date of any relevant payment thereunder.

Amounts available under the ABL Credit Agreement are subject to borrowing base formulas and overadvances as specified in the ABL Credit Agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at the Borrowers’ option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.25% or an alternate base rate margin of 0.75% to 1.25% (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus 1.00%, with the applicable margin determined based on Borrowers’ availability under the ABL Credit Agreement. The calculation of the interest rate under the ABL Credit Agreement has been revised as set forth in the next paragraph. The ABL Credit Agreement is secured by specified assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors. In addition to paying interest on any outstanding borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement, we are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the credit agreement with respect to the unutilized commitments. The commitment fee accrues at a tiered rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitments when the average usage is less than 50% of the total available commitments and decreases to 0.35% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitments when the average usage is greater than or equal to 50% of the total available

commitments. As of July 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, interest under the ABL Credit Agreement was being paid at an average rate of 6.05%6.62% per annum.

On April 20, 2023, we amended the ABL Credit Agreement to replace LIBOR with Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as a successor rate. All other material terms and conditions of the ABL Credit Agreement were unchanged. Borrowings under the amended ABL Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Borrower’s option, at the alternate base rate (defined as, for a given day, the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” in effect on such day, (ii) the NYFRB Rate (as defined in the amendment) in effect on such day plus 0.5% and (iii) the Adjusted Term SOFR (defined as an interest rate per annum equal to the Term SOFR for such interest period plus 0.10%) for a one-month interest period as published two business days prior to such day plus 1%) plus an applicable spread or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus an applicable spread. We do not expect a material change to our interest expense or results of operations as a result of transitioning the reference rate used in our ABL Credit Agreement from LIBOR to SOFR.

The revolving credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to, subject to specified exceptions, incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of certain assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve the Company; acquire other companies; make loans, advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. In certain circumstances, the revolving credit facility also requires us to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, not less than 1.00 to 1.00 for each period of twelve consecutive fiscal months of the Company. As of July 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

We extinguished and charged to interest expense $0.4 million of the prior debt issuance costs and incurred new debt issuance costs totaling $5.1 million related to the ABL Credit Agreement. We have a total of $8.0 million of debt issuance costs related to our ABL Credit Agreement. As permitted under ASC 835, the debt issuance costs have been deferred and are presented as an asset which is amortized ratably over the term of the ABL Credit Agreement.

Reference Rate Reform

The interest rate of our revolving credit facility is indexed to LIBOR. LIBOR quotations could cease as of December 31, 2022. We have discussed alternatives to LIBOR with the administrative agent under our ABL Credit Agreement and we expect that if LIBOR can no longer be used as the reference rate, we will be able to use an alternative such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, known as SOFR. We do not expect a material change to our interest expense or results of operations if LIBOR is no longer available as a reference rate under our ABL Credit Agreement.

LVMH Note

We issued to LVMH, as a portion of the consideration for the acquisition of DKI, a junior lien secured promissory note in favor of LVMH in the principal amount of $125 million (the “LVMH Note”) that bears interest at the rate of 2% per year. $75 million of the principal amount of the LVMH Note is due and payablewas paid on June 1, 2023 and therefore has been recorded within current portion of notes payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and $50 million of such principal amount is due and payable on December 1, 2023. The LVMH Note is classified in current portion of notes payable in our consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2023.

Based on an independent valuation, it was determined that the LVMH Note should be treated as having been issued at a discount of $40 million in accordance with ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements. This discount is being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the LVMH Note.

In connection with the issuance of the LVMH Note, LVMH entered into (i) a subordination agreement providing that our obligations under the LVMH Note are subordinate and junior to our obligations under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan and (ii) a pledge and security agreement with us and our subsidiary, G-III Leather, pursuant to which we and G-III Leather granted to LVMH a security interest in specified collateral to secure our payment and performance of our obligations under the LVMH Note that is subordinate and junior to the security interest granted by us with respect to our obligations under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion of results of operations and financial condition relies on our consolidated financial statements that are prepared based on certain critical accounting policies that require management to make judgments and estimates that are subject to varying degrees of uncertainty. We believe that investors need to be aware of these policies and how they impact our financial statements as a whole, as well as our related discussion and analysis presented herein. While we believe that these accounting policies are based on sound measurement criteria, actual future events can, and often do, result in outcomes that can be materially different from these estimates or forecasts.

The accounting policies and related estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 20222023 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of July 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit 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 our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and thus, are effective in making known to them material information relating to G-III required to be included in this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
