BUSINESS AND CREDIT CONCENTRATIONS

The Company generates sales in the United States; however, several of its products are sold into various foreign countries, which subjects the Company to the risks of doing business abroad. In addition, the Company operates in the footwear industry, and its business depends on the general economic environment and levels of consumer spending. Changes in the marketplace may significantly affect management’s estimates and the Company’s performance. Management performs regular evaluations concerning the ability of customers to satisfy their obligations and provides for estimated doubtful accounts. Domestic accounts receivable, which generally do not require collateral from customers, were $139.3 million and $228.5 million before allowances for bad debts, sales returns and chargebacks at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Foreign accounts receivable, which in some cases are collateralized by letters of credit, were $376.4 million and $440.9 million before allowance for bad debts, sales returns and chargebacks at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company’s credit losses attributable to write-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $1.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The Company’s credit losses attributable to write-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $2.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

The majority of the Company’s products are produced in China and Vietnam. The Company’s operations are subject to the customary risks of doing business abroad, including, but not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations, custom duties, tariffs and related fees, various import controls and other monetary barriers, restrictions on the transfer of funds, labor unrest and strikes, local disruptions and, in certain parts of the world, political instability. The Company believes it has acted to reduce these risks by diversifying manufacturing among various factories.
