NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Perry Ellis International, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Perry Ellis” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2015.

The information presented reflects all adjustments, which are in the opinion of management of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU No. 2014-08 amends the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The amendments require expanded disclosures for discontinued operations that would provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of discontinued operations and disclosure of the pretax profit or loss of individually significant components of an entity that do not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. ASU No. 2014-08 is to be applied prospectively to all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) of components of an entity and all businesses or nonprofit activities that, on acquisition, are classified as held for sale that occur within fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or the Company’s financial position.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU No. 2014-09 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) that removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets, provides more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Companies can choose to apply the ASU using either the full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating both methods of adoption and the impact, if any, that the adoption of this ASU will have on the Company’s results of operations or the Company’s financial position.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” ASU No. 2014-12 requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. ASU No. 2014-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The amendments can be applied either prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards. The Company is currently evaluating both methods of adoption and the impact, if any, that the adoption of this ASU will have on the Company’s results of operations or the Company’s financial position.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”, which changes the guidance for evaluating whether to consolidate certain legal entities. Specifically, the amendments modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) or voting interest entities. Additionally, the amendments eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, as well as affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships. ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted, including adoption during an interim period. Companies have an option of using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)”, which is simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company expects the adoption of the standard will result in the presentation of debt issuance costs, which are currently included in other assets, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt instrument.

10. NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares of outstanding common stock.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per share:

13. INCOME TAXES

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for fiscal 2011 through fiscal 2015 are open tax years. The Company’s state tax filings are subject to varying statutes of limitations. The Company’s unrecognized state tax benefits are related to open tax years from fiscal 2005 through fiscal 2016, depending on each state’s particular statute of limitation. As of May 2, 2015, the fiscal 2011 and 2012 U.S. federal income tax returns are under examination as well as various state, local, and foreign income tax returns by various taxing authorities.

The Company has a $1.0 million liability recorded for unrecognized tax benefits as of January 31, 2015, which includes interest and penalties of $0.2 million. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. All of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate. During the three months ended May 2, 2015, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased by approximately $118,000. The change to the total amount of the unrecognized tax benefit for the three months ended May 2, 2015 included an increase in interest and penalties of approximately $20,000.

The Company expects to complete the ongoing examination with the state of New York within the next twelve months. The Company does not currently anticipate a resolution within the next twelve months for any of the remaining unrecognized tax benefits as of May 2, 2015. The statute of limitations related to the Company’s fiscal 2011and 2012 U.S. federal tax years has been extended as part of the examination and is not be expected to lapse within the next twelve months.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company recognized a valuation allowance of $42.4 million against the remaining deferred tax assets, utilization of which is not restricted by factors beyond the Company’s control. The establishment of valuation allowances and development of projected annual effective tax rates requires significant judgment and is impacted by various estimates. Both positive and negative evidence, as well as the objectivity and verifiability of that evidence, is considered in determining the appropriateness of recording a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. While the Company recognized pretax earnings in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, by itself that does not represent sufficient positive evidence that deferred tax asset will be realized to warrant removing the valuation allowances established against the U.S. deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets without valuation allowances remain in certain foreign tax jurisdictions, where supported by the evidence.

14. STOCK OPTIONS, STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AND RESTRICTED SHARES

During the three months ended May 2, 2015, the Company granted an aggregate of 73,489 shares of restricted stock to certain key employees, which vest primarily over a three-year period, at an estimated value of $1.8 million. This value is being recorded as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the restricted stock.

In April 2015, a total of 91,083 shares of restricted stock vested, of which 27,325 shares were withheld to cover the employees’ statutory income tax requirements. The estimated value of the withheld shares was $0.7 million.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has four reportable segments: Men’s Sportswear and Swim, Women’s Sportswear, Direct-to-Consumer and Licensing. The Men’s Sportswear and Swim and Women’s Sportswear segments derive revenues from the design, import and distribution of apparel to department stores and other retail outlets, principally throughout the United States. The Direct-to-Consumer segment derives its revenues from the sale of the Company’s branded and licensed products through its retail stores and e-commerce platform. The Licensing segment derives its revenues from royalties associated with the use of the Company’s brand names, principally Perry Ellis, Jantzen, John Henry, Original Penguin, Gotcha, Farah, Savane, Pro Player, Laundry, Manhattan and Munsingwear.

The Company allocates certain corporate selling, general and administrative expenses based primarily on the revenues generated by each segment.

17. SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

On April 22, 2015, the Company amended and restated its existing senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent for the lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent. The Credit Facility provides a revolving credit facility of up to an aggregate amount of $200 million. The Credit Facility has been extended through April 30, 2020 (“Maturity Date”). In connection with this amendment and restatement, the Company paid fees in the amount of $0.6 million. These fees will be amortized over the term of the credit facility as interest expense. At May 2, 2015, we had outstanding borrowings of $9.7 million under the Credit Facility. At January 31, 2015, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Certain Covenants. The Credit Facility contains certain financial and other covenants, which, among other things, require the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if availability falls below certain thresholds. The Company is not aware of any non-compliance with any of its covenants in this Credit Facility. These covenants may restrict its ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness and liens in certain circumstances, redeem or repurchase capital stock, make certain investments or sell assets. The Company may pay cash dividends subject to certain restrictions set forth in the covenants including, but not limited to, meeting a minimum excess availability threshold and no occurrence of a default. The Company could be materially harmed if it violates any covenants, as the lenders under the Credit Facility could declare all amounts outstanding, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If the Company is unable to repay those amounts, the lenders could proceed against its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries that are borrowers or guarantors. In addition, a covenant violation that is not cured or waived by the lenders could also constitute a cross-default under certain of its other outstanding indebtedness, such as the indenture relating to its 7 7/8% senior subordinated notes due April 1, 2019, its letter of credit facilities, or its real estate mortgage loans. Such a cross-default could result in all of its debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which it may not be able to satisfy.

Borrowing Base. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are limited to a borrowing base calculation, which generally restricts the outstanding balance to the sum of (a) 87.5% of eligible receivables plus (b) 87.5% of eligible foreign accounts up to $1.5 million plus (c) the lesser of (i) the inventory loan limit, which equals 80% of the maximum credit under the Credit Facility at the time, (ii) a maximum of 70.0% of eligible finished goods inventory with an inventory limit not to exceed $125 million, or 90.0% of the net recovery percentage (as defined in the Credit Facility) of eligible inventory.

Interest. Interest on the outstanding principal balance drawn under the Credit Facility accrues at the prime rate and at the rate quoted by the agent for Eurodollar loans. The margin adjusts quarterly, in a range of 0.50% to 1.00% for prime rate loans and 1.50% to 2.00% for Eurodollar loans, based on the previous quarterly average of excess availability plus excess cash on the last day of the previous quarter.

Security. As security for the indebtedness under the Credit Facility, the Company granted to the lenders a first priority security interest (subject to liens permitted under the Credit Facility to be senior thereto) in substantially all of its existing and future assets, including, without limitation, accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, general intangibles, equipment and capital stock or membership interests, as the case may be, of certain subsidiaries, and real estate but excluding its non-U.S. subsidiaries and all of its trademark portfolio.

18. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued interest payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Investments. (classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy) - The carrying amounts of the available-for-sale investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets.

Real estate mortgages. (classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy) - The carrying amounts of the real estate mortgages were approximately $23.0 million at May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, respectively. The carrying values of the real estate mortgages at May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, approximate their fair values since they were recently entered into and thus the interest rates approximate market.

Senior credit facility. The carrying amount of the senior credit facility approximates fair value due to the frequent resets of its floating interest rate.

Senior subordinated notes payable. (classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy) - The carrying amounts of the 7 7 / 8 % senior subordinated notes payable were approximately $150.0 million at May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015. The fair value of the 7 7 / 8 % senior subordinated notes payable was approximately $156.0 million and $157.0 million as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, respectively, based on quoted market prices.

These estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods.

19. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company and several of its subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the senior subordinated notes payable on a joint and several basis. These guarantees are subject to release in limited circumstances (only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions). The following are condensed consolidating financial statements, which present, in separate columns: Perry Ellis International, Inc., (Parent Only), the Guarantors on a combined, or where appropriate, consolidated basis, and the Non-Guarantors on a combined, or where appropriate, consolidated basis. Additional columns present eliminating adjustments and consolidated totals as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015 and for the three months ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014. The combined Guarantors are 100% owned subsidiaries of Perry Ellis International, Inc., and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the senior subordinated notes payable on a joint and several basis.

20. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On April 6, 2015, the Company elected to call for the partial redemption of $100 million of its $150 million outstanding 7.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2019 and a notice of redemption was sent to all registered holders of the notes. The terms provided for the payment of a redemption premium of 103.938% of the principal amount redeemed. On May 6, 2015, the Company completed the redemption of the $100 million of its senior subordinated notes. The Company incurred debt extinguishment costs of approximately $5.1 million in connection with the redemption, including this redemption premium as well as the write-off of note issuance costs.

Critical Accounting Policies

Included in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015 is a summary of all significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We follow the accounting methods and practices as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In particular, our critical accounting policies and areas in which we use judgment are in the areas of revenue recognition, the estimated collectability of accounts receivable, the recoverability of obsolete or overstocked inventory, the impairment of long-lived assets that are our trademarks and goodwill, the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the measurement of retirement related benefits. We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended May 2, 2015 as compared to those we disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015.

EBITDA consists of earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization and income taxes. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and does not represent cash flow from operations. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, presented above, is operating income. EBITDA and EBITDA margin are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that they are a common measure of operating performance in the apparel industry.

The following is a discussion of the results of operations for the three month period in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 30, 2016 (“fiscal 2016”) compared with the three month period in the first quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”).

Results of Operations—three months ended May 2, 2015 compared to the three months ended May 3. 2014.

Net sales. Men’s Sportswear and Swim net sales for the three months ended May 2, 2015 were $198.5 million, an increase of $3.5 million, or 1.8%, from $195.0 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The net sales increase was attributed primarily to increases in Perry Ellis and Original Penguin collections and golf lifestyle apparel, partially offset by decreases in our mid-tier sportswear as we reduced penetration of our proprietary brands.

Women’s Sportswear net sales for the three months ended May 2, 2015 were $38.8 million, an increase of $4.3 million, or 12.5%, from $34.5 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The net sales increase was primarily due to increases in our contemporary Laundry by Shelli Segal dresses and Rafaella sportswear, driven by strong performance at retail.

Direct-to-Consumer net sales for the three months ended May 2, 2015 were $21.0 million, an increase of $0.6 million, or 2.9%, from $20.4 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The increase was driven by e-commerce, which posted a 45% increase in comparable sales, partially offset by retail stores sales decline of 1.4% in comparable same store sales. Business is responding strongly to our spring assortments which hit selling floors a few weeks late as a result of the west coast port slow down issues.

Royalty income. Royalty income for the three months ended May 2, 2015 was $8.2 million, an increase of $0.8 million, or 10.8%, from $7.4 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. Royalty income increases were attributed to increases in our Perry Ellis, Original Penguin and Laundry businesses as well as the new licenses signed last year.

Gross profit. Gross profit was $90.1 million for the three months ended May 2, 2015, an increase of $2.4 million, or 2.7%, from $87.7 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. This increase is attributed to the sales mix composition described above and the factors described within the gross profit margin section below.

Gross profit margin. As a percentage of total revenue, gross profit margins were 33.8% for the three months ended May 2, 2015, as compared to 34.1% for the three months ended May 2, 2014, a decrease of 30 basis points. This decrease is primarily associated with the exit of the Elite component of our Nike licensed business, the inventory liquidation of divested C&C California, as well as the consolidation of our Beijing sourcing office, partially offset by expansion across our licensing and core domestic collections.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 2, 2015 were $69.6 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.1%, from $69.7 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. We realized favorability from reduced headcount and tighter expense control across in our infrastructure . The decrease was partially offset by restructuring costs related to exited businesses as well as exit costs associated with the consolidation of our N.Y. corporate office space.

EBITDA. Men’s Sportswear and Swim EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 2, 2015 increased by 20 basis points to 6.7% from 6.5% for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The EBITDA margin was favorably impacted by the increase in net sales described above. Because of this increase in revenue, we were able to realize a favorable leverage in selling, general and administrative expenses, more specifically on payroll and advertising expenses, which was partially offset by the increased infrastructure expenditures planned in this segment, as well as exit costs associated with the Elite component of our Nike licensed business.

Women’s Sportswear EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 2, 2015 increased 230 basis points to 4.8%, from 2.5% for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The EBITDA margin was favorably impacted by the increase in net sales described above. Because of this increase in revenue, we were able to realize favorable leverage in selling, general and administrative expenses, more specifically on payroll and other overhead, which was partially offset by an increase in exit costs associated with C&C California.

Direct-to-Consumer EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 2, 2015 increased 30 basis points to (4.6%), from (4.9%) for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase of revenue from our stores and e-commerce business, as described above. Because of this increase in revenue, we were able to realize favorable leverage in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Licensing EBITDA margin for the three months ended May 2, 2015 decreased to 69.5%, from 73.5% for the three months ended May 3, 2014. As described below, during the three months ended May 2, 2015, we had a loss on the sale of the C&C California brand which was the primary reason for the lower EBITDA margin in first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended May 2, 2015, was $3.3 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 10.0%, from $3.0 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The increase is attributed to depreciation related to our capital expenditures, primarily in the direct-to-consumer segment, and leasehold improvements made during fiscal 2015.

Loss on sale of long-lived assets. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we entered into an agreement to sell the intellectual property of our C&C California brand to a third party. As a result of this transaction, we recorded a loss of ($0.7) million in the licensing segment.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended May 2, 2015, was $3.6 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 2.7%, from $3.7 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014, primarily attributable to a lower average amount borrowed on our credit facility as compared to the comparable quarter of the prior year.

Income taxes. The income tax expense for the three months ended May 2, 2015, was $3.4 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. For the three months ended May 2, 2015, our effective tax rate was 26.7% as compared to 30.9% for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The overall change in the effective tax rate is attributed to the current year impact of the valuation allowance on domestic taxes and a change in the ratio of income between domestic and foreign operations, of which the domestic operations are taxed at higher statutory tax rates.

Net income. Net income for the three months ended May 2, 2015 was $9.4 million, an increase of $1.6 million, or 20.5%, as compared to $7.8 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The changes in operating results were due to the items described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We rely principally on cash flow from operations and borrowings under our senior credit facility to finance our operations, pension funding requirements, acquisitions, future redemption of our senior subordinated notes payable and capital expenditures. We believe that our working capital requirements will increase for next year as we continue to expand internationally. As of May 2, 2015, our total working capital was $265.5 million as compared to $240.2 million as of January 31, 2015 and $348.4 million as of May 3, 2014. We believe that our cash flows from operations and availability under our senior credit facility and remaining letter of credit facilities are sufficient to meet our working capital needs and capital expenditure needs over the next year. We also believe that our real estate assets, which had a net book value of $22.8 million at May 2, 2015, have a higher market value. These real estate assets may provide us with additional capital resources. Additional borrowings against these real estate assets, however, would be subject to certain loan to value criteria established by lending institutions. As of May 2, 2015, we had mortgage loans on these properties totaling $22.7 million.

We consider the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries as of May 2, 2015, to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no United States income taxes have been provided thereon. As of May 2, 2015, the amount of cash associated with indefinitely reinvested foreign earnings was approximately $15.5 million. We have not, nor do we anticipate the need to, repatriate funds to the United States to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs associated with our domestic debt service requirements.

Net cash used in operating activities was $39.7 million for the three months ended May 2, 2015, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $47.3 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014.

The cash used in operating activities for three months ended May 2, 2015, is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable of $43.4 million, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $42.7 million and a decrease in accrued interest payable of $3.0 million; which was partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $30.6 million associated with strong inventory management. As a result of the increase in sales and the tighter management of inventory for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to prior quarter, our inventory turnover ratio increased to 3.6 as compared to 3.3 for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2015.

The cash used in operating activities for three months ended May 3, 2014, is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable of $36.6 million, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $55.2 million and a decrease in accrued interest payable of $3.1 million; which was partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $29.9 million associated with strong inventory management. As a result of the decrease in sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 as compared to prior quarter, our inventory turnover ratio decreased to 3.3 as compared to 3.9 for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2014.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $5.1 million for the three months ended May 2, 2015, as compared to cash used in investing activities of $8.9 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The net cash provided by investing activities during the first three months of fiscal 2016 primarily reflects the proceeds from the maturities of investments in the amount of $8.6 million and proceeds on sale of the C&C California brand in the amount of $2.5 million; offset by the purchase of property and equipment of $3.3 million primarily for leaseholds and the purchase of investments of $2.6 million. We anticipate capital expenditures during the remainder of fiscal 2016 of $12.0 million to $13.0 million in new leasehold improvements, technology, systems, retail stores, and other expenditures.

The net cash used during the first three months of fiscal 2015 primarily reflects the purchase of investments of $15.4 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $3.1 million, primarily for leaseholds; offset by the proceeds from the maturities of investments in the amount of $9.5 million

Net cash provided by financing activities was $9.3 million for the three months ended May 2, 2015, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $56.0 million for the three months ended May 3, 2014. The net cash provided during the first three months of fiscal 2016 primarily reflects net borrowings on our senior credit facility of $9.7 million, proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $0.1 million and a tax benefit from exercise of equity instruments of $0.4 million; which was partially offset by payments of $0.6 million in deferred financing fees on the senior credit facility and $0.2 million in payments on our mortgage loans.

The net cash provided by financing during the first three months of fiscal 2015 primarily reflects net borrowings on our senior credit facility of $7.7 million; which was partially offset by payments of $0.2 million on our mortgage loans.

Our Board of Directors has authorized us to purchase, from time to time and as market and business conditions warrant, up to $60 million of our common stock for cash in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions through October 31, 2015. Although our Board of Directors allocated a maximum of $60 million to carry out the program, we are not obligated to purchase any specific number of outstanding shares and will reevaluate the program on an ongoing basis.

During fiscal 2015, we repurchased shares of our common stock at a cost of $8.8 million. There have been no open market purchases during fiscal 2016. Total purchases under the plan to date amount to approximately $51.7 million. As of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, there were 770,753 shares of treasury stock outstanding at a cost of approximately $15.7 million, respectively.

Acquisitions

None.

7 ⁷/₈% $150 Million Senior Subordinated Notes Payable

In March 2011, we issued $150 million 7 ⁷/₈% senior subordinated notes, due April 1, 2019. The proceeds of this offering were used to retire the $150 million 8 ⁷/₈% senior subordinated notes due September 15, 2013 and to repay a portion of the outstanding balance on the senior credit facility. The proceeds to us were $146.5 million yielding an effective interest rate of 8.0%.

On April 6, 2015, we elected to call for the partial redemption of $100 million of our $150 million outstanding 7 ⁷/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes due April 1, 2019 and a notice of redemption was sent to all registered holders of the notes. The redemption terms provided for the payment of a redemption premium of 103.938% of the principal amount redeemed. On May 6, 2015, the Company completed the redemption of the $100 million of its senior subordinated notes. The Company incurred debt extinguishment costs of approximately $5.1 million in connection with the redemption, including the redemption premium as well as the write-off of note issuance costs.

Certain Covenants. The indenture governing the senior subordinated notes contains certain covenants which restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness in certain circumstances, pay dividends or make other distributions on, redeem or repurchase capital stock, make investments or other restricted payments, create liens on assets to secure debt, engage in transactions with affiliates, and effect a consolidation or merger. We are not aware of any non-compliance with any of our covenants in this indenture. We could be materially harmed if we violate any covenants because the indenture’s trustee could declare the outstanding notes, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy. In addition, a violation could also constitute a cross-default under the senior credit facility, the letter of credit facilities and the real estate mortgages resulting in all of our debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy.

Senior Credit Facility

On April 22, 2015, we amended and restated our existing senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent for the lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent. The Credit Facility provides a revolving credit facility of up to an aggregate amount of $200 million. The Credit Facility has been extended through April 30, 2020 (“Maturity Date”). In connection with this amendment and restatement, we paid fees in the amount of $0.6 million. These fees will be amortized over the term of the credit facility as interest expense. At May 2, 2015, we had borrowings of $9.7 million under the Credit Facility. At January 31, 2015, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Certain Covenants. The Credit Facility contains certain financial and other covenants, which, among other things, require us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if availability falls below certain thresholds. We are not aware of any non-compliance with any of our covenants in this Credit Facility. These covenants may restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness and liens in certain circumstances, redeem or repurchase capital stock, make certain investments or sell assets. We may pay cash dividends subject to certain restrictions set forth in the covenants including, but not limited to, meeting a minimum excess availability threshold and no occurrence of a default. We could be materially harmed if we violate any covenants, as the lenders under the Credit Facility could declare all amounts outstanding, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If we are unable to repay those amounts, the lenders could proceed against our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries that are borrowers or guarantors. In addition, a covenant violation that is not cured or waived by the lenders could also constitute a cross-default under certain of our other outstanding indebtedness, such as the indenture relating to our 7 7/8% senior subordinated notes due April 1, 2019, our letter of credit facilities, or our real estate mortgage loans. Such a cross-default could result in all of our debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy.

Security. As security for the indebtedness under the Credit Facility, we granted to the lenders a first priority security interest (subject to liens permitted under the Credit Facility to be senior thereto) in substantially all of our existing and future assets, including, without limitation, accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, general intangibles, equipment and capital stock or membership interests, as the case may be, of certain subsidiaries, and real estate but excluding our non-U.S. subsidiaries and all of our trademark portfolio.

Letter of Credit Facilities

As of May 2, 2015, we maintained one U.S. dollar letter of credit facility totaling $30.0 million and one letter of credit facility totaling $0.3 million utilized by our United Kingdom subsidiary. Each documentary letter of credit is secured primarily by the consignment of merchandise in transit under that letter of credit and certain subordinated liens on our assets.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, a $15 million line of credit expired and was not renewed. During fiscal 2014, we decreased the letter of credit sublimit in our Senior Credit Facility to $30.0 million. At May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, there was $18.7 million and $33.7 million, respectively, available under the existing letter of credit facilities.

Real Estate Mortgage Loans

In July 2010, we paid off our then existing real estate mortgage loan and refinanced our main administrative office, warehouse and distribution facility in Miami with a $13.0 million mortgage loan. The loan is due on August 1, 2020. The interest rate has been modified since the refinancing date. The interest rate was 4.25% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of $71,000 were due, based on a 25-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. In July 2013, we amended the mortgage loan agreement to modify the interest rate. The interest rate was reduced to 3.9% per annum and the terms were restated to reflect new monthly payments of principal and interest of $69,000, based on a 25-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. At May 2, 2015 the balance of the real estate mortgage loan totaled $11.2 million, net of discount, of which $378,000 is due within one year.

In June 2006, we entered into a mortgage loan for $15 million secured by our Tampa facility. The loan is due on January 23, 2019. The mortgage loan has been refinanced and the interest rate has been modified since such date. The interest rate was 4.00% per annum and quarterly payments of principal and interest of approximately $248,000 were due, based on a 20-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. In January 2014, we again amended the mortgage loan to modify the interest rate. The interest rate was reduced to 3.25% per annum and the terms were restated to reflect new monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $68,000, based on a 20-year amortization with the outstanding principal due at maturity. At May 2, 2015, the balance of the real estate mortgage loan totaled $11.4 million, net of discount, of which approximately $448,000 is due within one year.

The real estate mortgage loans contain certain covenants. We are not aware of any non-compliance with any of the covenants. If we violate any covenants, the lender under the real estate mortgage loan could declare all amounts outstanding thereunder to be immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy. A covenant violation could constitute a cross-default under our senior credit facility, the letter of credit facilities and the indenture relating to our senior subordinated notes resulting in all of our debt obligations becoming immediately due and payable, which we may not be able to satisfy.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are not a party to any “off-balance sheet arrangements,” as defined by applicable GAAP and SEC rules.

Effects of Inflation and Foreign Currency Fluctuations

We do not believe that inflation or foreign currency fluctuations significantly affected our financial position and results of operations as of and for the three months ended May 2, 2015.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The market risk inherent in our financial statements represents the potential changes in the fair value, earnings or cash flows arising from changes in interest rates. We manage this exposure through regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Our policy allows the use of derivative financial instruments for identifiable market risk exposure, including interest rate. We currently do not have any derivative financial instruments for identifiable market risk.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to market risks for the pricing of cotton and other fibers, which may impact fabric prices. Fabric is a portion of the overall product cost, which includes various components. We manage our fabric prices by using a combination of different strategies including the utilization of sophisticated logistics and supply chain management systems, which allow us to maintain maximum flexibility in our global sourcing of products. This provides us with the ability to re-direct our sourcing of products to the most cost-effective jurisdictions. In addition, we may modify our product offerings to our customers based on the availability of new fibers, yield enhancement techniques and other technological advances that allow us to utilize more cost effective fibers. Finally, we also have the ability to adjust our price points of such products, to the extent market conditions allow. These factors, along with our foreign-based sourcing offices, allow us to procure product from lower cost countries or capitalize on certain tariff-free arrangements, which help mitigate any commodity price increases that may occur. We have not historically managed, and do not currently intend to manage, commodity price exposures by using derivative instruments.

Other

Our current exposure to foreign exchange risk is not significant and accordingly, we have not entered into any transactions to hedge against those risks.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of May 2, 2015 in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended May 2, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1: Legal Proceedings

We are a defendant in Humberto Ordaz v. Perry Ellis International, Inc., Case No. BC490485 (Cal. Sup. Ct. 2012), involving claims for unpaid wages, missed breaks and related claims, which was originally filed on August 17, 2012 by a former employee in our California administrative offices. The plaintiff sought an unspecified amount of damages. The lawsuit has been pleaded but not certified as a class action. Mediation was held during the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Currently, the parties have reached a tentative settlement. The tentative settlement amount has been provided for in the Company’s results of operations for fiscal 2015.

Item 2: Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

We repurchased the following amounts of our common stock during the first quarter of fiscal 2016:


Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased			Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs⁽¹⁾		Maximum Approximate Dollar Value that May Yet Be Purchased under the Plans or Programs

During fiscal 2014, our Board of Directors extended the stock repurchase program to authorize us to purchase, from time to time and as market and business conditions warrant, up to $60 million of our common stock for cash in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions through October 31, 2015. Although our Board of Directors allocated a maximum of $60 million to carry out the program, we are not obligated to purchase any specific number of outstanding shares and will reevaluate the program on an ongoing basis. Total purchases under the plan to date amount to $51.7 million.
