LEASES

The Company regularly enters into non-cancellable operating leases for retail stores, distribution facilities, offices, showrooms and automobiles. Retail stores typically have initial terms ranging from 5 to 10 years and other real estate or facility leases may have initial lease terms of up to 20 years. The Company’s leases are recorded as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating leases liabilities. Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the fixed portion of lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Net present value is calculated using an incremental borrowing rate based on a combination of market-based factors, such as market quoted forward yield curves and Company specific factors, such as lease size and duration. Many of the Company’s real estate leases include options to extend and are included in the lease obligations when considered reasonably certain. ROU assets are recognized based on operating lease liabilities reduced by lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Fixed lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s real estate leases may require additional payments for percentage rent, real estate taxes, or other occupancy-related costs. Percentage rent, a variable cost, is recognized in the consolidated financial statements when incurred and is based on the specific terms in the lease agreement. Real estate taxes and other occupancy-related costs are non-lease components.
