NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1999
(UNAUDITED)
(1) GENERAL
The unaudited operating results have been prepared on the same basis as the
audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management,
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary
for a fair presentation for the periods. The accompanying interim condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with management's
discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations,
contained in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No.
333-60065). The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be achieved for full fiscal years.
(2) PRO FORMA INFORMATION
Income Taxes
Effective June 7, 1999, the Company terminated its S Corporation election,
becoming a C Corporation subject to Federal and state income taxes. The tax
provisions include historical income taxes and pro forma income tax adjustments
which represent taxes which would have been reported had the Company been
subject to Federal and state income taxes as a C Corporation. The Company's
conversion to a C Corporation on June 7, 1999 resulted in a one-time noncash
credit to earnings equal to the amount of establishing the deferred tax asset on
June 7, 1999 of $1.8 million. This amount is reflected as deferred taxes and
reduces the provision for historical income taxes in the accompanying condensed
consolidated statement of earnings.
The pro forma unaudited income tax adjustments presented represent taxes which
would have been reported had the Company been subject to Federal and state
income taxes as a C Corporation, assuming a 40.0% rate. The historical and pro
forma provisions for income tax expense were as follows (in thousands):

Earnings Per Share
The Company reports pro-forma earnings per share under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"), "Earnings Per Share". Under SFAS
No. 128, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options,
warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock. The weighted average diluted shares
outstanding gives effect to the sale by the Company of those shares of common
stock necessary to fund the payment of the excess of (i) the sum of stockholder
distributions paid or declared from January 1, 1998 to June 7, 1999, the S
Corporation termination date, in excess of (ii) the S Corporation earnings from
January 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998 for 1998 and January 1, 1998 to June 7,
1999 for 1999 based on an initial public offering price of $11 per share, net of
underwriting discounts.
The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares is as follows (in
thousands):

(3) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No.
130 establishes standards to measure all changes in equity that result from
transactions and other economic events other than transactions with owners.
Comprehensive income is the total of net earnings and all other nonowner changes
in equity. Except for net earnings, the Company does not have any transactions
and other economic events that qualify as comprehensive income as defined under
SFAS No. 130. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 130 did not affect the
Company's financial reporting.
(4) COMPUTER SOFTWARE COSTS
The Company adopted Statement of Position 98-1 ("SOP 98-1"), "Accounting for the
Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" effective
January 1, 1999. The adoption of SOP 98-1 did not have a significant impact on
the Company's financial position or results of operations.
(5) START-UP COSTS
The Company adopted SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities"
effective January 1, 1999. The adoption of SOP 98-5 did not have a significant
impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
(6) BANK BORROWINGS
The Company has available a secured line of credit, as amended in December 1998,
permitting borrowings up to $120.0 million based upon eligible accounts
receivable and inventories. The borrowings bear interest at the rate of prime
(8% at June 30, 1999) plus 0.25% or at LIBOR (5.37% at June 30, 1999) plus 2.75%
and the line of credit expires on December 31, 2002. The agreement provides for
the issuance of letters of credit up to a maximum of $18.0 million, which
decreases the amount available for borrowings under the agreement. The
outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 1999 are $3.8 million. The Company
paid a 1.0% per annum fee on the maximum letter of credit amount plus 0.50% of
the difference between the revolving loan commitment less the maximum letter of
credit amount. At June 30, 1999, the Company had available credit aggregating
approximately $66.9 million. The agreement contains certain restrictive
covenants, including tangible net worth and net working capital, as defined,
with which the Company was in compliance at June 30, 1999.
At June 30, 1999, the Company had $2.5 million outstanding under a secured note
payable with a financial institution, bearing interest at the rate of prime plus
1.0%, payable in monthly installments of $25,000 and due November 30, 2002.
(7) NOTES PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDER
Stockholder loans aggregating $11.8 million were repaid with proceeds from the
Company's initial public offering during June 1999. The Company recorded
interest expense of approximately $474,000 and $433,000 related to these notes
during the six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

(8) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Effective as of May 28, 1999, the Company was reincorporated in Delaware,
whereby the existing California corporation was merged into a newly formed
Delaware corporation and pursuant to which each outstanding share of common
stock of the existing California corporation was exchanged for a share of $.001
par value Class B common stock of the new Delaware corporation. In addition,
pursuant to the reincorporation merger, an approximate 13,907 for 1 common stock
split was authorized. The amendment and stock split has been reflected
retroactively in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
The authorized capital stock of the Delaware corporation consists of 100,000,000
shares of Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share, and 60,000,000 shares
of Class B common stock, par value $.001 per share. The Company has also
authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value per share.
The Class A common stock and Class B common stock have identical rights other
than with respect to voting, conversion and transfer. The Class A common stock
is entitled to one vote per share, while the Class B common stock is entitled to
ten votes per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The
shares of Class B common stock are convertible at any time at the option of the
holder into shares of Class A common stock on a share-for-share basis. In
addition, shares of Class B common stock will be automatically converted into a
like number of shares of Class A common stock upon any transfer to any person or
entity which is not a permitted transferee.
On June 9, 1999, the Company issued 7.0 million shares of Class A common stock
in an initial public offering and received net proceeds of $69.7 million. The
application of net proceeds were applied to (i) repayment of stockholder loans
of $11.8 million, (ii) dividend distributions of $31.8 million, and (iii)
partial repayment of the Company's revolving line of credit of $26.1 million. On
June 9, 1999, the Company also granted 1,209,636 options to acquire Class A
common stock at an exercise price of $11 per share which vest ratably in 20%
increments commencing one year from the grant date.
(9) LITIGATION
The Company is involved in litigation arising from the ordinary course of
business. Management does not believe that the disposition of these matters will
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing
elsewhere herein. This section contains certain forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, information with
regard to anticipated marketing expenditures, the successful implementation of
the Company's strategies, future growth and growth rates, and future increases
in net sales, expenses, capital expenditures and net earnings. Without limiting
the foregoing, the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," "may,"
"will," "intends," "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties, and the Company's actual results may differ materially from the
results discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain
factors including, an increase in marketing expenditures, changes to estimates
of capital expenditures for 1999, decrease in licensee sales, inability to
generate working capital, and increased costs and time for year 2000
expenditures.
OVERVIEW
The Company designs and markets branded contemporary casual, active, rugged and
lifestyle footwear for men, women and children. The Company sells its products
to department stores such as Nordstrom, Macy's, Dillards, Robinson's-May and JC
Penney, and specialty retailers such as Famous Footwear, Genesco's Journeys and
Jarman chains, The Venator Group's Foot Locker and Lady Foot Locker chains, and
Footaction U.S.A. The Company's marketing focus is to maintain and enhance
recognition of the Skechers brand name as a casual, active, youthful, lifestyle
brand that stands for quality, comfort and design innovation. The Company
typically endeavors to spend between 8.0% and 10.0% of annual net sales in the
marketing of Skechers footwear through an integrated effort of advertising,
promotions, public relations, trade shows and other marketing efforts.
On June 9, 1999, the Company issued 7.0 million shares of Class A common stock
in an initial public offering (the "Offering") and received net proceeds of
approximately $69.7 million (after deducting underwriting discounts and
commissions and Offering expenses). The application of net proceeds were applied
to (i) repayment of a $10 million subordinated note and a $1.8 million
unsubordinated note, each to the Greenberg Family Trust, (ii) dividend
distributions of $31.8 million, and (iii) partial repayment of the Company's
revolving line of credit of $26.1 million.
In May 1992, the Company elected to be treated for Federal and state income tax
purposes as an S Corporation under Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, and comparable state laws. As a result, for the period from
inception through June 7, 1999, earnings of the Company were included in the
taxable income of the Company's stockholders for Federal and state income tax
purposes, and the Company was not subject to income tax on such earnings, other
than franchise and net worth taxes. The Company terminated its S Corporation
status on June 7, 1999 in connection with the Offering. Accordingly, the Company
is treated for Federal and state income tax purposes as a corporation under
Subchapter C of the Code and, as a result, is subject to state and Federal
income taxes. By reason of the Company's treatment as an S Corporation for
Federal and state income tax purposes, the Company, for the period from
inception through June 7, 1999 provided to its stockholders funds for the
payment of income taxes on the earnings of the Company. In April 1999, the
Company declared and paid a distribution consisting of the first installment of
Federal income taxes payable on S Corporation earnings for 1998 in the amount of
$3.5 million. Also, the Company used a portion of its proceeds of the Offering
to make a distribution consisting of the final installment of Federal income
taxes payable on S Corporation earnings for 1998 (the "Final 1998
Distribution"). The amount of the Final 1998 Distribution was $7.6 million. Upon
the termination of the Company's S Corporation status, the Company declared (i)
a distribution consisting of income taxes payable on S Corporation earnings from
January 1, 1999 through June 7, 1999 (the "Final Tax Distribution"), and (ii) a
distribution in an amount designed to constitute the Company's remaining and
undistributed accumulated S Corporation earnings through June 7, 1999 (the
"Final S Corporation Distribution"). The amount of the Final Tax Distribution
was $2.8 million and the amount of the Final S
10
Corporation Distribution was $21.4 million and such amounts were funded with a
portion of the net proceeds of the Offering. Purchasers of shares of Class A
Common Stock in the Offering did not receive any portion of the Final 1998
Distribution, the Final Tax Distribution or the Final S Corporation
Distribution. After the date of such termination, the Company was no longer
treated as an S Corporation and, accordingly, it became subject to Federal and
state income taxes. All pro forma income taxes reflect adjustments for Federal
and state income taxes as if the Company had been taxed as a C Corporation
rather than an S Corporation.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated, selected information
from the Company's results of operations as a percentage of net sales. Pro forma
reflects adjustments for Federal and state income taxes as if the Company had
been taxed as a C Corporation at an assumed 40% rate rather than an S
Corporation.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998
Net Sales
Net sales increased $16.9 million, or 19.3%, to $104.6 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $87.7 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998. This increase was due to increased sales of branded
footwear primarily as a result of (i) greater brand awareness driven in part by
a significant expansion of the Company's national marketing efforts, (ii) a
broader breadth of men's, women's and children's product offerings, (iii) the
development of the Company's domestic sales force and international distributor
network, (iv) the increased volume of the Company's existing account base with
multiple stores and increased sales to such accounts, resulting in higher sales
per account, (v) operations of 38 Company stores during the second quarter of
1999 versus the operations of 24 Company stores during the second quarter of
1998, and (vi) the launch of the Company's direct mail business in August 1998.
Gross wholesale sales of men's footwear, including international, increased $2.2
million, or 6.9%, to $34.3 million for the
11
three months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $32.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998. Gross wholesale sales of women's footwear, including
international, increased $8.4 million, or 21.0%, to $48.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $39.9 million for the three months
ended June 30 1998. Gross wholesale sales of children's footwear, including
international, decreased $1.0 million, or 7.3%, to $13.2 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $14.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was due to the timing of shipments between the
first and second quarter as first quarter sales were up 120.8 % over the
comparable period in 1998. Provisions for returns and allowances were $3.0
million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $3.5 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998. Net sales through the Company's retail
stores increased $3.9 million, or 66.8%, to $9.8 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended June
30, 1998. This increase is primarily due to new store openings. Net sales
generated from international operations increased $3.3 million, or 51.5%, to
$9.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $6.3
million for the three months ended June 30, 1998.
Gross Profit
The Company's gross profit increased $6.7 million, or 18.7%, to $42.7 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $36.0 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was attributable to higher sales.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales ("Gross Margin") decreased to 40.9%
for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from 41.1% for the same period in 1998.
The decrease in Gross Margin was primarily due to higher ocean freight costs
resulting from rate increases by third party shipping companies on imported
products. The effect of the rate increases were partially offset by improved
retail sell-through at the Company's retail customer accounts, which typically
results in fewer markdowns, and the increase in the Company's retail sales,
including direct mail, since such retail Gross Margins are higher than wholesale
Gross Margins.
Royalty Income, Net
Royalty income, net of related expenses, increased $71,000, or 81.6%, to
$158,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $87,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998. The Company earns royalty income based upon a
percentage of sales of its licensees. The increase was due to increased sales by
licensees. Management expects that royalty income may increase in total dollars,
but not necessarily as a percentage of net sales, as the Company's licensing
efforts for Skechers products increase.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses include sales salaries, commissions and incentives,
advertising, promotions and trade shows. Selling expenses increased $2.3
million, or 24.5%, to $11.6 million (11.1% of net sales) for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 from $9.3 million (10.6% of net sales) for the three months
ended June 30, 1998. The increase in total dollars was primarily due to
increased marketing (advertising and tradeshow) expenditures, sales compensation
due to the increase in footwear sales, and the hiring of additional sales
personnel. Advertising expenses as a percentage of net sales for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was 9.0% and 8.6%, respectively. The Company
endeavors to spend approximately 8.0% to 10.0% of annual net sales in the
marketing of Skechers footwear through advertising, promotions, public
relations, trade shows and other marketing efforts. Marketing expense as a
percentage of net sales may vary from quarter to quarter. The increase as a
percentage of sales was due primarily to the factors above.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $2.9 million, or 17.9%, to $18.8
million (18.0% of net sales) for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from $15.9
million (18.2% of net sales) for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The
increase in total dollars is primarily due to (i) the hiring of additional
personnel, (ii) an increase in costs associated with the Company's distribution
facilities to support the Company's growth, (iii) increased product design and
development costs and (iv) the addition of 15 retail stores which
12
were not open in the second quarter of 1998. The decrease as a percentage of net
sales was primarily due to the increase in the volume of footwear sold. Also
included in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June
30, 1998 is $1.0 million of compensation expense relating to the Company's 1996
Incentive Compensation Plan (the "1996 Incentive Compensation Plan") which
expired December 31, 1998. The Company has not introduced an incentive
compensation plan for 1999.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $741,000, or 25.9%, to $2.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $2.9 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 as a result of the application of net proceeds from the
Offering which were partially used to reduce debt.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income, net during the three months ended June 30, 1999 related to
miscellaneous income of $21,000. Other expense, net during the three months
ended June 30, 1998 related to miscellaneous expense of $46,000.
Pro Forma Income Taxes
Pro forma income taxes have been provided at the assumed rate of 40.0% for
Federal and state purposes.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998
Net Sales
Net sales increased $52.8 million, or 35.8%, to $200.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $147.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. This increase was due to increased sales of branded
footwear primarily as a result of (i) greater brand awareness driven in part by
a significant expansion of the Company's national marketing efforts, (ii) a
broader breadth of men's, women's and children's product offerings, (iii) the
development of the Company's domestic sales force and international distributor
network, (iv) the increased volume of the Company's existing account base with
multiple stores and increased sales to such accounts, resulting in higher sales
per account, (v) the operation of 38 Company stores during the six months ended
June 30, 1999 versus the operation of 23 Company stores during the six months
ended June 30, 1998, and (vi) the launch of the Company's direct mail business
in August 1998. Gross wholesale sales of men's footwear, including
international, increased $10.0 million, or 17.1%, to $68.4 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $58.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. The increase in sales of men's footwear was achieved
despite a decline in men's "Kani" footwear sales of $668,000. No Kani sales were
recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The Company discontinued
actively marketing "Kani" footwear in 1997. Sales of "Kani" footwear for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 resulted from inventory close-outs, which were
substantially completed during this fiscal period. Gross wholesale sales of
women's footwear, including international, increased $25.1 million, or 39.5%, to
$88.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $63.7
million for the six months ended June 30 1998. Gross wholesale sales of
children's footwear, including international, increased $7.2 million, or 34.4%,
to $28.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $21.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Provisions for returns and
allowances were $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared
to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Net sales through the
Company's retail stores increased $8.7 million, or 93.0%, to $18.0 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $9.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. This increase is primarily due to new store
openings. Net sales generated from international operations increased $5.4
million, or 37.6%, to $19.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as
compared to $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998.
13
Gross Profit
The Company's gross profit increased $21.0 million, or 35.8%, to $79.4 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $58.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was attributable to higher sales. Gross
Margin increased to 39.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from 39.6% for
the same period in 1998. The increase in Gross Margin was primarily due to (i)
improved retail sell-through at the Company's retail customer accounts, which
typically results in fewer markdowns, (ii) an increase in the proportions of
total sales derived from the women's footwear line, which had a higher margin
than the men's footwear line, and (iii) the increase in the Company's retail
sales, including direct mail. The increase in Gross Margin was partially offset
by higher ocean freight costs resulting from rate increases by third party
shipping companies on imported product beginning in the second quarter of 1999.
Royalty Income, Net
Royalty income, net of related expenses, decreased $12,000, or 5.5%, to $207,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $219,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. The Company earns royalty income based upon a percentage of
sales of its licensees and sublicensees. The decrease was due to the termination
of the Company's license relating to "Kani" apparel.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses increased $10.8 million, or 66.4%, to $27.2 million (13.6% of
net sales) for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $16.3 million (11.1% of
net sales) for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in total dollars
was primarily due to increased marketing (advertising and tradeshow)
expenditures, sales compensation due to the increase in footwear sales, and the
hiring of additional sales personnel. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net
sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was 11.1% and 8.8%,
respectively.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $6.2 million, or 21.2%, to $35.2
million (17.6% of net sales) for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $29.0
million (19.7% of net sales) for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The
increase in total dollars is primarily due to (i) the hiring of additional
personnel, (ii) an increase in costs associated with the Company's distribution
facilities to support the Company's growth, (iii) increased product design and
development costs and (iv) the addition of 15 retail stores which were not open
in the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease as a percentage of net sales
was primarily due to the increase in the volume of footwear sold. Also included
in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1998 is
$1.7 million of compensation expense relating to the Company's 1996 Incentive
Compensation Plan which expired December 31, 1998.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $471,000, or 10.9%, to $3.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $4.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 as a result of the application of net proceeds from the Offering
which were partially used to reduce debt.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net during the six months ended June 30, 1999 related to legal
settlements of $358,000 and miscellaneous income of $146,000. The legal
settlements related to intellectual property matters. Other income, net during
the six months ended June 30, 1998 related to miscellaneous income of $17,000.
Pro Forma Income Taxes
Pro forma income taxes have been provided at the assumed rate of 40.0% for
Federal and state purposes.
14
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has historically relied upon internally generated funds, trade
credit, borrowings under credit facilities and loans from stockholders to
finance its operations and expansion. The Company's need for funds arises
primarily from its working capital requirements, including the need to finance
its inventory and receivables. The Company's working capital was $58.3 million
at June 30, 1999 and $23.1 million at December 31, 1998, respectively. The
increase in working capital at June 30, 1999 as compared to December 31, 1998
was primarily due to the Offering and application of net proceeds therefrom as
well as net earnings during the six months ended June 30, 1999.
As part of the Company's working capital management, the Company performs
substantially all customer credit functions internally, including extension of
credit and collections. The Company's bad debt write-offs were less than 1.0% of
net sales for six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999. The Company carries bad
debt insurance to cover approximately the first 90.0% of bad debts on
substantially all of the Company's major retail accounts.
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities totaled $8.7 million and
$(12.8) million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to an
increase in net income and a decrease in inventory balances. The decrease in
inventory from December 31, 1998 to June 30, 1999 of $6.7 million was primarily
due to maintaining strict inventory controls during the six month period ending
June 30, 1999.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $3.7 million and $3.6 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and primarily related
to capital expenditures. Capital expenditures in 1999 primarily included the
construction of additional Company retail stores and trade show booths, as well
as additional hardware and software for the Company's computer needs. Investing
activities in 1998 was primarily due to increased capital expenditures in
connection with the establishment of the Company's distribution facilities in
Ontario, California, the construction of additional Company retail stores, and
additional hardware and software for the Company's computer needs.
The Company estimates that its capital expenditures for the year ending December
31, 1999 will be approximately $10.0 million, of which approximately $5.5
million will be used for the installation of a new material handling system for
the Company's most recently opened distribution facility. Total expenditures for
the new material handling system are expected to be approximately $10.0 million,
the balance of which will be spent in 2000. The Company also anticipates
spending $400,000 for expenditures on equipment for the Company's distribution
facilities, and $4.1 million capital expenditures related to general corporate
purposes in 1999, including leasehold improvements and purchases of furniture
and equipment in connection with the opening of additional retail stores,
additions and advancements to the Company's management information systems,
costs associated with trade show booths and leasehold improvements to the
Company's facilities.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $(15.7) million and
$15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to payments on
debt and dividend distributions which were partially financed by the Offering.
The Company's credit facility provides for borrowings under a revolving line of
credit of up to $120.0 million and a term loan, with actual borrowings limited
to available collateral and certain limitations on total indebtedness
(approximately $66.9 million of availability as of June 30, 1999) with Heller
Financial, Inc., as agent for the lenders. As of June 30, 1999, there was
approximately $14.8 million outstanding under the revolving line of credit. The
revolving line of credit bears interest at the Company's option at either the
prime rate (8.0% at June 30, 1999) plus 25 basis points or at Libor (5.37% at
June 30, 1999) plus 2.75%. The revolving line of credit expires on December 31,
2002. Interest on the revolving line of credit is payable monthly. The revolving
line of credit provides a sub-limit for letters of credit of up to $18.0 million
to finance the Company's foreign purchases of merchandise inventory. As of June
30, 1999, the Company
15
had approximately $3.8 million of letters of credit under the revolving line of
credit. The term loan component of the credit facility, which has a principal
balance of approximately $2.5 million as of June 30, 1999, bears interest at the
prime rate plus 100 basis points and is due in monthly installments with a final
balloon payment December 2002. The proceeds from this note were used to purchase
equipment for the Company's distribution centers in Ontario, California and the
note is secured by such equipment. The credit facility contains certain
financial covenants that require the Company to maintain minimum tangible net
worth of at least $20.0 million, working capital of at least $14.0 million and
specified leverage ratios and limit the ability of the Company to pay dividends
if it is in default of any provisions of the credit facility. The Company was in
compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 1999. The credit facility is
collateralized by the Company's real and personal property, including, among
other things, accounts receivable, inventory, general intangibles and equipment
and is guaranteed by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries.
By reason of the Company's treatment as an S Corporation for Federal and state
income tax purposes, the Company from inception to June 7, 1999, the S
Corporation termination date, has provided to its stockholders funds for the
payment of income taxes on the earnings of the Company. In April 1999, the
Company declared the April Tax Distribution of $3.5 million, and connection with
the Offering declared the Final 1998 Distribution, of $7.6 million, the Final
Tax Distribution, of $2.8 million, and the Final S Corporation Distribution, of
$21.4 million. The Company's C Corporation earnings will be retained for the
foreseeable future in the operations of the business.
The Company believes that anticipated cash flows from operations, available
borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit, cash on hand and its
financing arrangements will be sufficient to provide the Company with the
liquidity necessary to fund its anticipated working capital and capital
requirements through fiscal 2000. However, in connection with its growth
strategy, the Company will incur significant working capital requirements and
capital expenditures. The Company's future capital requirements will depend on
many factors, including, but not limited to, the levels at which the Company
maintains inventory, the market acceptance of the Company's footwear, the levels
of promotion and advertising required to promote its footwear, the extent to
which the Company invests in new product design and improvements to its existing
product design and the number and timing of new store openings. To the extent
that available funds are insufficient to fund the Company's future activities,
the Company may need to raise additional funds through public or private
financing. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available
or that, if available, it can be obtained on terms favorable to the Company and
its stockholders. Failure to obtain such financing could delay or prevent the
Company's planned expansion, which could adversely affect the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if
additional capital is raised through the sale of additional equity or
convertible securities, dilution to the Company's stockholders could occur.
QUARTERLY RESULTS AND SEASONALITY
Sales of footwear products are somewhat seasonal in nature with the strongest
sales generally occurring in the third and fourth quarters
The Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, variability
in its net sales, operating results and results of operations, on a quarterly
basis. The Company's domestic customers generally assume responsibility for
scheduling pickup and delivery of purchased products. Any delay in scheduling or
pickup which is beyond the Company's control could materially negatively impact
the Company's net sales and results of operations for any given quarter. The
Company believes the factors which influence this variability include (i) the
timing of the Company's introduction of new footwear products, (ii) the level of
consumer acceptance of new and existing products, (iii) general economic and
industry conditions that affect consumer spending and retail purchasing, (iv)
the timing of the placement, cancellation or pickup of customer orders, (v)
increases in the number of employees and overhead to support growth, (vi) the
timing of expenditures in anticipation of increased sales and customer delivery
requirements, (vii) the number and timing of new Company retail store openings
and (viii) actions by competitors. Due to these and other factors, the operating
results for any particular quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the full year.
16
INFLATION
The Company does not believe that the relatively moderate rates of inflation
experienced in the United States over the last three years have had a
significant effect on its net sales or profitability. However, the Company
cannot accurately predict the effect of inflation on future operating results.
Although higher rates of inflation have been experienced in a number of foreign
countries in which the Company's products are manufactured, the Company does not
believe that inflation has had a material effect on the Company's net sales or
profitability. In the past, the Company has been able to offset its foreign
product cost increases by increasing prices or changing suppliers, although no
assurance can be given that the Company will be able to continue to make such
increases or changes in the future.
EXCHANGE RATES
The Company receives U.S. Dollars for substantially all of its product sales and
its royalty income. Inventory purchases from offshore contract manufacturers are
primarily denominated in U.S. Dollars; however, purchase prices for the
Company's products may be impacted by fluctuations in the exchange rate between
the U.S. Dollar and the local currencies of the contract manufacturers, which
may have the effect of increasing the Company's cost of goods in the future.
During 1997 and 1998, exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact
on the Company's inventory costs. The Company does not engage in hedging
activities with respect to such exchange rate risk.
MARKET RISK
The Company does not hold any derivative securities or other market rate
sensitive instruments.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company relies on its internal computer systems to manage and conduct its
business. The Company also relies, directly and indirectly, on external systems
of business enterprises such as third party manufacturers and suppliers,
customers, creditors and financial organizations, and of governmental entities,
both domestic and internationally, for accurate exchange of data.
Many existing computer programs were designed and developed without regard for
the Year 2000 ("Y2K") and beyond. If the Company or its significant third party
business partners and intermediaries fail to make necessary modifications,
conversions, and contingency plans on a timely basis, the Y2K issue could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business and financial condition.
Management believes that its competitors face a similar risk. In recognition of
this risk, the Company has established a project team to assess, remediate, test
and develop contingency plans.
State of Readiness
The Company has developed a Y2K plan with the objective of having all of its
information technology ("IT") systems compliant by September 1999. The Company's
significant IT systems include its order management and inventory system,
electronic data interchange ("EDI") system, distribution center processing
system, retail merchandise and point of sale system, financial applications
system, local area network and personal computers. The Company tested and
completed Y2K changes to its order management and inventory system in July 1999.
The Company tested and completed Y2K changes to its EDI system related to
inbound transactions from customers in July 1999. The Company plans to begin
contacting its EDI trading customers and discuss their Y2K readiness to receive
the Company's outbound transactions in August 1999. The Company has completed
substantially all Y2K changes to its distribution center processing system
except for upgrading the operating system to the Y2K version. Upgrade to the Y2K
version is part of the Company's on-going maintenance contract with its vendor.
The Company is upgrading the operating system with implementation targeted for
September 1999. The Company's retail merchandise and point of sale system is
expected to be Y2K compliant by September 1999. The Company's financial
applications system was upgraded with testing and implementation completed in
May 1999. The system upgrades for the Company's financial application systems
began in 1998 for the purpose of enhancing system functionality to accommodate
the Company's expanding business
17
and related information needs. The Company's local area network hardware and
software providers have advised the Company that such systems are Y2K compliant.
The Company has begun to assess its personal computers for necessary changes
which are anticipated to be completed by October 1999.
The Company's non-IT systems include security, fire prevention, environmental
control equipment and phone systems. Many of these systems are currently Y2K
compliant. Modification to the remaining systems are expected by September 1999.
The Company's Y2K project team has begun sending surveys and conducting formal
communications with its significant business partners to determine the extent to
which the Company is vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate
their own Y2K issues. This process is expected to continue throughout 1999.
Risks and Contingency Plans
The Company is not aware of any material operational issues associated with
preparing its internal systems for the Y2K, however, there is no assurance that
there will not be a delay in the implementation. The Company's inability to
implement such systems and changes in a timely manner could have a material
adverse effect on future results of operations, financial condition and cash
flows.
The potential inability of the Company's significant business partners and
intermediaries to address their own Y2K issues remains a risk which is difficult
to assess. The Company is dependent on four key manufacturers located in China
for the production of its footwear. The failure of one or more of these
manufacturers to adequately address their own Y2K issues could interrupt the
Company's supply chain. The inability of port authorities or shipping lines to
address their own Y2K issues could also interrupt the Company's supply chain.
Additionally, the inability of one or more of the Company's significant
customers to become Y2K compliant could adversely impact the Company's sales to
those customers.
The Company is developing contingency plans which may include finding
alternative suppliers, manual interventions and adding increased staffing. There
is no assurance that the Company will correctly anticipate the level, impact or
duration of noncompliance by its significant business partners that provide
inadequate information.
As the Company has not completed evaluations of its significant business
partners' Y2K readiness, the Company is currently unable to determine the most
reasonable likely worst case scenario. The Company will continue its efforts
towards contingency planning throughout 1999.
Costs
The Company estimates its costs associated with becoming Y2K compliant will be
less than $100,000, exclusive of system upgrades incurred in the normal course
of business. Efforts to modify the Company's IT systems have substantially been
performed internally, however, the Company does not separately track such costs.
These costs primarily relate to salaries and wages which are expensed as
incurred.
FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133 modifies the
accounting for derivative and hedging activities and is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. Since the Company does not presently hold
any derivatives or engage in hedging activities, accordingly SFAS No. 133 should
not impact the Company's financial position or results of operations.
