Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

 

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other public filings and press releases by the Company (as defined below) contain “forward-looking” information (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that involves risk and uncertainty.  These forward-looking statements reflect our current views regarding certain events that could affect our financial condition or results of operations and may include, but are not limited to, references to future sales, comparable sales, earnings, margins, costs, number and costs of store openings, closings, and expansions, capital expenditures, acquisitions, synergies, demand for clothing, market trends in the retail and corporate apparel clothing business, currency fluctuations, inflation and various economic and business trends.  Forward-looking statements may be made by management orally or in writing, including, but not limited to, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other sections of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and a variety of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated or expected results expressed in or suggested by these forward-looking statements.  Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: actions by governmental entities; domestic and international economic activity and inflation; success, or lack thereof, in executing our internal operating plans and new store and new market expansion plans, as well as integration of acquisitions, including Jos. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc.; performance issues with key suppliers; disruptions in our supply chain; severe weather; foreign currency fluctuations; government export and import policies; advertising or marketing activities of competitors; and legal proceedings.  Future results will also be dependent upon our ability to continue to identify and complete successful expansions and penetrations into existing and new markets and our ability to integrate such expansions with our existing operations.

 

These forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current beliefs or expectations and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies and third party approvals, many of which are beyond our control.  Refer to “Risk Factors” contained in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015, Part 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 2, 2015 and elsewhere herein for a more complete discussion of these and other factors that might affect our performance and financial results. These forward-looking statements are intended to convey the Company’s expectations about the future and speak only as of the date they are made.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

 

All written or oral forward-looking statements that are made by or attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) and have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  As applicable under such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted.  We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, as further described below in Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

 

Our business historically has been seasonal in nature and, as a result, the operating results of the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015.

 

Unless the context otherwise requires, “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures.  Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — We have considered all new accounting pronouncements and have concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on current information, except for those listed below.

 

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU 2015-11 simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value.  ASU 2015-11 applies only to inventories for which cost is determined by methods other than last-in first-out and the retail inventory method.  ASU 2015-11 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption of ASU 2015-11 is permitted.  We are currently evaluating ASU 2015-11 to determine if this guidance will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be reported on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and is required to be applied retrospectively.  Early adoption is permitted and we adopted this ASU in the second quarter of 2015.

 

Upon adoption, we adjusted our August 2, 2014 balance sheet by decreasing current assets by $5.7 million, other assets by $35.7 million and long-term debt by $41.4 million and adjusted our January 31, 2015 balance sheet by decreasing current assets by $5.7 million, other assets by $32.8 million and long-term debt by $38.5 million.  We elected to continue presenting debt issuance costs for our asset-based revolving credit facility as an asset because of the potential volatility of borrowings and repayments under the facility.  The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our results of operations or cash flows.  See Note 4 for a summary of the reclassifications for all periods presented.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles used to recognize revenue for all entities.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year.  As a result of this deferral, ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The guidance allows for either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective transition method.  We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, including the transition method, on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

2.  Acquisition

 

Jos. A. Bank

 

On June 18, 2014, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Jos. A. Bank, a men’s specialty apparel retailer, for $65.00 net per share in cash, or total consideration of approximately $1.8 billion. The acquisition was funded primarily by a $1.1 billion term loan facility, the issuance of $600.0 million in senior unsecured notes and borrowings under an asset-based credit facility (see Note 4).

 

We incurred integration and other costs related to Jos. A. Bank totaling $5.0 million and $10.8 million for the three and six months ended August 1, 2015, respectively, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  For the three and six months ended August 1, 2015, we did not incur any acquisition-related costs.  For the three and six months ended August 2, 2014, we incurred acquisition-related costs for Jos. A. Bank totaling $26.4 million and $43.5 million, respectively, as well as $14.4 million and $17.4 million of integration and other costs related to Jos. A. Bank which are all included in SG&A in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.

 

The following table summarizes the final allocation of fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Jos. A. Bank acquisition (amounts in millions):

$

1,491.4

 

 

During the six months ended August 1, 2015, we made certain measurement period adjustments primarily related to deferred income taxes.  None of these measurement period adjustments had a material impact on the purchase price allocation.  Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired.  The goodwill recognized is attributable to growth opportunities and expected synergies.  All of the goodwill has been assigned to our retail reporting segment and is non-deductible for tax purposes.

 

The following table presents unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information as if the closing of our acquisition of Jos. A. Bank had occurred on February 3, 2013 (in thousands, except per share data):

The pro forma financial information presented above has been prepared by combining our historical results and the historical results of Jos. A. Bank and further reflects the effect of purchase accounting adjustments and the elimination of transaction costs, among other items.  This pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the Jos. A. Bank acquisition occurred on the date indicated above or that may result in the future and does not reflect potential synergies, integration costs or other such costs and savings.

3.  Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per common share allocated to common shareholders is determined using the two-class method and is computed by dividing net earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share reflect the more dilutive earnings per common share amount calculated using the treasury stock method or the two-class method.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share allocated to common shareholders (in thousands, except per share amounts). Basic and diluted earnings per common share allocated to common shareholders are computed using the actual net earnings allocated to common shareholders and the actual weighted-average common shares outstanding rather than the rounded numbers presented within our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.  As a result, it may not be possible to recalculate earnings per common share allocated to common shareholders in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.

4.  Debt

 

On June 18, 2014, we entered into a term loan credit agreement that provides for a senior secured term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (the “Term Loan”) and a $500.0 million asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “ABL Facility”, and together with the Term Loan, the “Credit Facilities”) with certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and Moores the Suit People Inc., one of our Canadian subsidiaries, as co-borrowers.  Proceeds from the Term Loan were reduced by an $11.0 million original issue discount (“OID”), which is presented as a reduction of the outstanding balance on the Term Loan on the balance sheet and will be amortized to interest expense over the contractual life of the Term Loan.  In addition, on June 18, 2014, we issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.00% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes”).

 

The Credit Facilities and the Senior Notes contain customary non-financial and financial covenants, including fixed charge coverage ratios, total leverage ratios and secured leverage ratios, as well as a restriction on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock in excess of $10.0 million per quarter.  Since entering into these financing arrangements and as of August 1, 2015, our total leverage ratio and secured leverage ratio were above the maximums specified in the agreements, which was anticipated when we entered into these arrangements.  As a result, we are currently subject to certain additional restrictions, including limitations on our ability to make acquisitions and incur additional indebtedness.

We used the net proceeds from the Term Loan, the offering of the Senior Notes and the net proceeds from $340.0 million drawn on the ABL Facility to pay the approximately $1.8 billion purchase price for the acquisition of Jos. A. Bank and to repay all of our obligations under our Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2013 (as amended, the “Previous Credit Agreement”), including $95.0 million outstanding under the Previous Credit Agreement as well as settlement of the then existing interest rate swap.

 

Credit Facilities

 

The Term Loan is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and will mature on June 18, 2021.  The interest rate on the Term Loan is based on 3-month LIBOR, which was approximately 0.31% at August 1, 2015.  However, the Term Loan interest rate is subject to a LIBOR floor of 1% per annum, plus the applicable margin which is currently 3.50%, resulting in a total interest rate of 4.50%.  In January 2015, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to swap variable-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest payments on a notional amount of $520.0 million, effective in February 2015.  The interest rate swap agreement matures in August 2018 and has periodic interest settlements.  Under this interest rate swap agreement, we receive a floating rate based on 3-month LIBOR and pay a fixed rate of 5.03% (including the applicable margin of 3.50%) on the outstanding notional amount.

 

On April 7, 2015, we entered into Incremental Facility Agreement No. 1 (the “Incremental Agreement”) resulting in a refinancing of $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan from a variable rate to a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum.  The Incremental Agreement did not impact the total amount borrowed under the Term Loan, the maturity date of the Term Loan of June 18, 2021, or collateral and guarantees under the Term Loan.  In connection with the Incremental Agreement, we incurred deferred financing costs of $3.6 million, which will be amortized over the life of the remaining term using the interest method.  In addition, as a result of entering into the Incremental Agreement, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $12.7 million consisting of the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs and OID related to the Term Loan, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.

 

As a result of the interest rate swap and the Incremental Agreement, we have converted a majority of the variable interest rate under the Term Loan to a fixed rate and, as of August 1, 2015, the Term Loan had a weighted average interest rate of 4.93%.

 

The ABL Facility provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of $500.0 million, with possible future increases to $650.0 million with an expansion feature, which matures on June 18, 2019, and is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries.  The ABL Facility has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBOR, (ii) Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, (iii) Canadian prime rate or (iv) alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% or adjusted LIBOR for a one-month period plus 1.0%).  Advances under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin of up to 2.00%.  The ABL Facility also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit which range from 1.50% to 2.00%, and a fee on unused commitments which ranges from 0.25% to 0.375%.

 

We utilize letters of credit primarily to secure inventory purchases and as collateral for workers compensation claims.  Except for letters of credit totaling approximately $24.1 million issued and outstanding, no amounts were drawn on the ABL Facility as of August 1, 2015 and we have approximately $423.6 million of borrowing availability under the ABL Facility as of August 1, 2015.

 

Senior Notes

 

The Senior Notes contain customary non-financial covenants and the Senior Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries.  The Senior Notes will mature on July 1, 2022.  Interest on the Senior Notes is payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year.

 

We had entered into a registration rights agreement regarding the Senior Notes pursuant to which we agreed, among other things, to use our commercially reasonable efforts to consummate an exchange offer of the Senior Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on or before July 13, 2015.  On June 24, 2015, the exchange offer was completed.

A. Bank acquisition.

10.  Share-Based Compensation Plans

 

For a discussion of our share-based compensation plans refer to Note 11 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015.

 

We account for share-based awards in accordance with the authoritative guidance regarding share-based payments, which requires the compensation cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. The amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the instrument issued and is recognized over the vesting period.  Share-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended August 1, 2015 was $3.9 million and $8.4 million, respectively.  Share-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended August 2, 2014 was $4.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

On April 3, 2013, our Board of Directors approved a change in the form of award agreements to be issued for grants of deferred stock units (“DSUs”) to participants under our 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan.  As revised, the award agreements provide that dividend equivalents, if any, will be accrued during the vesting period for such DSU awards and paid out only upon vesting of the underlying DSUs.  As such, grants of DSU awards on or after April 3, 2013 earn dividends throughout the vesting period which are subject to the same vesting terms as the underlying share award.  Grants of DSUs generally vest over a period of three years.  DSU awards granted prior to April 3, 2013 are entitled to receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents, if any, when and if paid to shareholders of record at the payment date.  Included in the non-vested time-based awards as of August 1, 2015 are 17,576 DSUs granted prior to April 3, 2013.

 

Of the 36,844 performance units granted in the first six months of 2015, 22,645 units represent a contingent right to receive one share of common stock and vest after our 2017 fiscal year, subject to our achievement of a cumulative performance target for fiscal years 2015-2017.

 

The remaining 14,199 performance units granted in the first six months of 2015 represent a contingent right to receive up to 2.25 shares of common stock and vest after our 2017 fiscal year, subject to our achievement of a performance target for fiscal 2017.  Assuming the performance target is achieved, the number of performance units earned will be adjusted based on multipliers related to (1) the Company’s adjusted earnings per share for fiscal 2017 and (2) the Company’s relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) compared to the TSR of certain peer companies over a pre-defined period.

 

Performance units that are unvested at the end of the performance period will lapse and be forfeited.  The performance units earn dividends throughout the vesting period and are subject to the same vesting terms as the underlying performance-based awards.

 

Performance-based DSUs granted in April 2014 (“April 2014 performance-based DSUs”) represented a contingent right to receive one share of common stock and vested over a one year period, subject to our achievement of a performance target for 2014.  Having met the performance target for 2014, the April 2014 performance-based DSUs vested in accordance with their terms in April 2015.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment at least annually.  A more frequent evaluation is performed if events or circumstances indicate that impairment could have occurred. Such events or circumstances could include, but are not limited to, new significant negative industry or economic trends, unanticipated changes in the competitive environment, decisions to significantly modify or dispose of operations and a significant sustained decline in the market price of our stock.  No additional impairment evaluation was considered necessary during the first six months of fiscal 2015.

The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization totaled $3.6 million and $7.1 million for the three and six months ended August 1, 2015, respectively.  The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization totaled $2.2 million and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended August 2, 2014, respectively.  Pretax amortization associated with intangible assets subject to amortization at August 1, 2015 is estimated to be $6.8 million for the remainder of fiscal year 2015, $13.9 million for fiscal year 2016, $13.3 million for fiscal year 2017, $12.9 million for fiscal year 2018 and $12.7 million for fiscal year 2019.

 

12.  Derivative Financial Instruments

 

As discussed in Note 4, in January 2015, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on a notional amount of $520.0 million that matures in August 2018 with periodic interest settlements.  We have designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge of the variability of interest payments under the Term Loan due to changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate.  At August 1, 2015, the fair value of the interest rate swap was a liability of $2.9 million with $2.5 million recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $0.4 million in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet.  The effective portion of the swap is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.  There was no hedge ineffectiveness at August 1, 2015.  Changes in fair value are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings in the same period that the hedged item affects earnings.

 

Over the next 12 months, $2.5 million of the effective portion of the interest rate swap is expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings.  If, at any time, the interest rate swap is determined to be ineffective, in whole or in part, due to changes in the interest rate swap or underlying debt agreements, the fair value of the portion of the interest rate swap determined to be ineffective will be recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of earnings for the applicable period.

13.  Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, categorizing the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy can be described as follows:  Level 1- observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2- inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3- unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.  The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and long-term debt.  Management estimates that, as of August 1, 2015, August 2, 2014, and January 31, 2015, the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximated their fair value due to the highly liquid or short-term nature of these instruments.

 

The fair values of our Term Loan and the term loan under the Previous Credit Agreement were valued based upon observable market data provided by a third party for similar types of debt, which we classify as a Level 2 input within the fair value hierarchy.  As of August 1, 2015, the fair value of our Senior Notes is based on quoted prices in active markets, which we classify as a Level 1 input within the fair value hierarchy.  In prior periods, the fair value of our Senior Notes was based on trading data in active markets, which we classified as a Level 2 input within the fair value hierarchy.  The table below shows the fair value and carrying value of our long-term debt, including current maturities (in thousands):

14.  Segment Reporting

 

Our operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.

 

The retail segment includes the results from our four retail merchandising brands: Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank, Moores Clothing for Men (“Moores”) and K&G.  These four brands are operating segments that have been aggregated into the retail reportable segment.  MW Cleaners is also aggregated in the retail segment as these operations have not had a significant effect on our revenues or expenses.  Specialty apparel merchandise offered by our four retail merchandising concepts include suits, suit separates, sport coats, slacks, business casual, sportswear, outerwear, dress and casual shirts, shoes and accessories for men.  Ladies’ career apparel, sportswear and accessories, including shoes, as well as children’s apparel is also offered at most of our K&G stores.  Tuxedo and suit rentals are offered at our Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank and Moores retail stores.

 

The corporate apparel segment includes the results from our corporate apparel and uniform operations conducted by Twin Hill in the U.S. and Dimensions, Alexandra, and Yaffy in the United Kingdom (“UK”).  The two corporate apparel and uniform concepts are operating segments that have been aggregated into the reportable corporate apparel segment.  The corporate apparel segment provides corporate clothing uniforms and workwear to workforces.

 

We measure segment profitability based on operating income, defined as income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes and non-controlling interest.  Corporate expenses and assets are allocated to the retail segment.

15.  Legal Matters

 

On July 30, 2013, Matthew B. Johnson, et al., on behalf of themselves and all Ohio residents similarly situated (the “Johnson Plaintiffs”), filed a putative class action Complaint against Jos. A. Bank in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern District (Case No. 2:13-cv-756).  The Complaint alleges, among other things, deceptive sales and marketing practices by Jos. A. Bank relating to its use of the words “free” and “regular price.”  The Complaint seeks, among other relief, certification of the complaint as a class action, compensatory damages, declaratory relief, injunctive relief and costs and disbursements (including attorneys’ fees).  On August 19, 2014, the Court dismissed the class claims and certain other breach of contract claims.  On June 9, 2015, the Court also dismissed the plaintiffs’ claim for injunctive relief.  Based on the two favorable court rulings, we do not believe that this case will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In December 2013, Jos. A. Bank received a subpoena from the Ohio Attorney General requiring the production of certain information relating to its advertising and marketing practices.  Jos. A. Bank produced information in response to the subpoena, cooperated with further information requests and is having ongoing communications with the Ohio Attorney General’s office.  The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time.  We do not currently believe, however, that it will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

On July 9, 2014, David Lucas and Eric Salerno, on behalf of themselves and all California residents similarly situated, filed a putative class action Complaint against Jos. A. Bank in the U.S. District Court for Southern California (Case No. ‘14CV1631LAB JLB).  The Complaint alleges, among other things, that Jos. A. Bank violated the California Unfair Competition Law and the California Consumers Legal Remedies Act with its comparative price advertising, price discounts and free apparel promotions.  The Complaint seeks, among other relief, certification of the case as a class action, permanent injunction, actual and compensatory damages, restitution including disgorgement of profits and unjust enrichment, costs and attorney fees.  We intend to vigorously defend the case.  The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time.  We do not currently believe, however, that it will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In addition, we are involved in various routine legal proceedings, including ongoing litigation, incidental to the conduct of our business.  Management does not believe that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

16. Condensed Consolidating Information

 

As discussed in Note 4, The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. (the “Issuer”) issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.00% Senior Notes.  The Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”).  Our Canadian and U.K. subsidiaries (collectively, the “Non-Guarantors”) are not guarantors of the Senior Notes.  Each of the Guarantors is 100% owned and all guarantees are joint and several.  In addition, the guarantees are full and unconditional except for certain automatic release provisions related to the Guarantors.

 

These automatic release provisions are considered customary and include the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or all of the capital stock of any subsidiary guarantor, the release or discharge of a guarantor’s guarantee of the obligations under the Term Loan other than a release or discharge through payment thereon, the designation in accordance with the Indenture of a guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary or the satisfaction of the requirements for defeasance or discharge of the Senior Notes as provided for in the Indenture.

 

The tables in the following pages present the condensed consolidating financial information for the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Non-Guarantors, together with eliminations, as of and for the periods indicated.  The consolidating financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the financial positions, results of operations or cash flows had the Issuer, Guarantors and Non-Guarantors operated as independent entities.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

General

 

For supplemental information, it is suggested that “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” be read in conjunction with the corresponding section included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015.  References herein to years are to our 52-week or 53-week fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday nearest January 31 in the following calendar year.  For example, references to “2015” mean the 52-week fiscal year ending January 30, 2016.

 

On June 18, 2014, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Jos. A. Bank, a men’s specialty apparel retailer, for $65.00 net per share in cash, or total consideration of approximately $1.8 billion.  We believe that Jos. A. Bank’s business model in conjunction with our business model will create meaningful opportunities for future growth and operational synergies.  The comparability of our results is affected by the inclusion of Jos. A. Bank’s results for the entire three and six month periods ended August 1, 2015, while last year’s operations includes Jos. A. Bank’s results beginning on June 18, 2014.

 

On June 10, 2015, we entered into a 10-year agreement with Macy’s, Inc. to operate men’s tuxedo rental shops inside 300 Macy’s stores.  By the end of 2015, we expect 10-15 shops to open within Macy’s stores with the remainder to open during 2016.  In addition, we will collaborate with Macy’s to develop an online tuxedo rental shop on www.macys.com.

 

Our operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.

 

We conduct our retail segment as a specialty apparel retailer offering suits, suit separates, sport coats, slacks, business casual, sportswear, outerwear, dress and casual shirts, shoes and accessories for men.  We offer our products and services through multiple brands and channels including The Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank, Moores Clothing for Men (“Moores”), K&G and the Internet at www.menswearhouse.com, www.josbank.com and www.josephabboud.com.  Our stores are located throughout the United States (“U.S.”), Puerto Rico and Canada and carry a wide selection of exclusive and non-exclusive merchandise brands.  Tuxedo and suit rentals are offered at our Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank and Moores retail stores.  In addition, we offer our customers alteration services and most of our K&G stores offer ladies’ career apparel, sportswear, accessories and shoes and children’s apparel.  We also conduct retail dry cleaning, laundry and heirlooming operations through MW Cleaners in Texas.

 

We operate two corporate apparel providers — our UK-based operations, the largest provider in the UK under the Dimensions, Alexandra, and Yaffy brands, and our Twin Hill operations in the U.S.  These operations provide corporate clothing uniforms and workwear to workforces through multiple channels including managed corporate accounts, catalogs and the internet at www.dimensions.co.uk and www.alexandra.co.uk.

 

Refer to Note 14 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information and disclosures regarding our reportable segments and the discussion included in “Results of Operations” below.

(2)             For 2015, includes one Joseph Abboud store.

 

During the first six months of 2015, we opened 14 stores (seven Men’s Wearhouse stores, five Jos. A. Bank stores, one Joseph Abboud store and one Moores store).  We closed 18 stores (nine Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores, five Jos. A. Bank stores, two Men’s Wearhouse stores and two K&G stores).

 

Seasonality

 

Our sales and net earnings are subject to seasonal fluctuations.  Our rental revenues are heavily concentrated in the second and third quarters due to prom and wedding seasons while the fourth quarter is considered the seasonal low point for rentals.  In addition, Jos. A. Bank has historically experienced increased customer traffic during the holiday season and its increased marketing efforts during the holiday season have historically resulted in sales and net earnings generated in the fourth quarter that are significantly larger as compared to the other three quarters.  With respect to corporate apparel sales and operating results, seasonal fluctuations are not significant but customer decisions to rebrand or revise their corporate wear programs can cause significant variations in period results.  Because of these fluctuations in our sales, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.

Net Sales

 

Total net sales increased $117.0 million, or 14.6%, to $920.1 million for the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the second quarter of 2014.

 

Total retail sales increased $122.5 million, or 16.6%, to $858.9 million for the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the second quarter of 2014 due mainly to $108.0 million of incremental net sales from Jos. A. Bank in the second quarter of 2015 and increases in clothing product and alteration and other revenues of $21.5 million from our other brands, partially offset by a decrease in rental services revenue of $7.0 million.  The net increase is attributable to the following:

Comparable sales for Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Moores and K&G exclude the net sales of a store for any month of one period if the store was not open throughout the same month of the prior period and include e-commerce net sales.  The inclusion of e-commerce net sales did not have a significant effect on comparable sales.

 

The increase at Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux resulted primarily from increased average unit retails (net selling prices) that more than offset decreases in units sold per transaction and average transactions per store.  The increase at Moores resulted from increased average unit retails offset by a decrease in average transactions per store while units sold per transaction were essentially flat.  The increase at K&G resulted from increased average transactions per store and average unit retails while units sold per transaction were flat.  At Men’s Wearhouse/Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, rental service comparable sales decreased 3.3% due to a decrease in unit rentals partially offset by an increase in rental rates.

 

Comparable sales for Jos. A. Bank decreased by 9.4%, and are calculated in the same manner as our other brands except that it is based on Jos. A. Bank’s entire second quarter of 2014, a portion of which was prior to the acquisition on June 18, 2014.

 

Total corporate apparel clothing product sales decreased $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the second quarter of 2014.  UK corporate apparel sales decreased $5.7 million due mainly to the impact of a weaker pound Sterling this year compared to last year as well as lower sales from existing customer programs.  U.S. corporate apparel sales increased $0.2 million due primarily to new customer rollouts.

 

Gross Margin

 

Buying and distribution costs are included in determining our retail and corporate apparel clothing product gross margins.  Our gross margin may not be comparable to other specialty retailers, as some companies exclude costs related to their distribution network from cost of goods sold while others, like us, include all or a portion of such costs in cost of goods sold and exclude them from SG&A expenses.  Distribution costs are not included in determining our rental services gross margin but are included in SG&A expenses.

Our total gross margin increased $60.1 million, or 16.8%, to $418.7 million in the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the second quarter of 2014.  Total retail segment gross margin increased $61.6 million, or 18.2%, from the same prior year quarter to $400.1 million in the second quarter of 2015.  The dollar increase in gross margin was primarily driven by an increase of $53.5 million in gross margin generated by Jos. A. Bank.  During the second quarter of 2014, $5.8 million of an inventory valuation step up was recognized and negatively impacted gross margin results.

 

For the retail segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased from 46.0% in the second quarter of 2014 to 46.6% in the second quarter of 2015 driven primarily by an increase in the retail clothing product gross margin rate.  Occupancy costs increased $18.8 million primarily due to Jos. A. Bank occupancy costs.  Occupancy costs as a percentage of retail sales, which is relatively constant on a per store basis and includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, increased from 13.0% to 13.3% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014, primarily due to the impact of Jos A. Bank’s occupancy costs, which are higher as a percentage of sales than our other brands.

 

Corporate apparel gross margin decreased $1.5 million, or 7.4%, in the second quarter of 2015 primarily due to unfavorable currency impacts at our UK operations.  For the corporate apparel segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased from 30.0% in the second quarter of 2014 to 30.3% in the second quarter of 2015 primarily due to changes in the sales mix at our U.S. operations partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts at our UK operations.

 

Advertising Expense

 

Advertising expense increased to $45.0 million in the second quarter of 2015 from $38.2 million in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of $6.8 million, or 17.7%.  The increase was primarily due to incremental Jos. A. Bank advertising costs.  As a percentage of total net sales, advertising expense increased from 4.7% in the second quarter of 2014 to 4.9% in the second quarter of 2015.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

SG&A expenses decreased to $275.6 million in the second quarter of 2015 from $277.6 million in the second quarter of 2014, a decrease of $2.0 million or 0.7%.  As a percentage of total net sales, these expenses decreased from 34.6% in the second quarter of 2014 to 30.0% in the second quarter of 2015.  The components of this 4.6% net decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of total net sales and the related absolute dollar changes were as follows:

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense increased to $26.5 million in the second quarter of 2015 from $13.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 due to incremental interest incurred on borrowings entered into in connection with the Jos. A. Bank acquisition.

 

Provision for Income Tax

 

Our effective income tax rate decreased from 55.0% for the second quarter of 2014 to 33.3% for the second quarter of 2015. Our effective income tax rate in 2014 was significantly impacted by non-deductible transaction costs related to the Jos. A. Bank acquisition, which increased our effective tax rate.  The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2015 was lower than the statutory U.S. rate of 35% due to changes in the mix of income earned in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions.

 

Net Earnings Attributable to Common Shareholders

 

Net earnings attributable to common shareholders were $47.8 million for the second quarter of 2015 compared with net earnings of $12.3 million for the second quarter of 2014.

Total retail sales increased $373.1 million, or 28.5%, to $1,683.2 million for the first six months of 2015 as compared to the first six months of 2014 due mainly to $324.1 million of incremental sales from Jos. A.

Our total gross margin increased $158.3 million, or 24.7%, to $800.2 million in the first six months of 2015 as compared to the first six months of 2014.  Total retail segment gross margin increased $159.9 million, or 26.4%, from the same prior year six months to $764.7 million in the first six months of 2015.  The dollar increase in gross margin was primarily driven by an increase of $136.4 million in gross margin generated by Jos. A. Bank.  During the first six months of 2015 and 2014, $0.8 million and $5.8 million, respectively, of inventory valuation step up were recognized and negatively impacted gross margin results.

 

For the retail segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales decreased from 46.2% in the first six months of 2014 to 45.4% in the first six months of 2015 driven primarily by the inclusion of Jos. A. Bank sales as well as lower gross margins at Jos. A. Bank.  Occupancy costs increased $59.1 million primarily due to Jos. A. Bank occupancy costs.  Occupancy costs as a percentage of retail sales, which is relatively constant on a per store basis and includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, increased from 12.8% to 13.5% for the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014, primarily due to the impact of Jos A.

Advertising expense increased to $95.6 million in the first six months of 2015 from $67.0 million in the first six months of 2014, an increase of $28.6 million, or 42.7%.  The increase was primarily due to Jos.

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense increased to $53.0 million in the first six months of 2015 from $14.3 million in the first six months of 2014 due to incremental interest incurred on borrowings entered into in connection with the Jos. A. Bank acquisition.

 

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

 

During the first six months of 2015, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $12.7 million consisting of the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs and OID related to the Term Loan compared with a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $2.2 million recorded in the first six months of 2014.

 

Provision for Income Tax

 

Our effective income tax rate decreased from 46.3% for the first six months of 2014 to 33.8% for the first six months of 2015.  Our effective income tax rate in 2014 was significantly impacted by non-deductible transaction costs related to the Jos. A.

Net Earnings Attributable to Common Shareholders

 

Net earnings attributable to common shareholders were $58.1 million for the first six months of 2015 compared with net earnings of $28.7 million for the first six months of 2014.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At August 1, 2015, August 2, 2014 and January 31, 2015, cash and cash equivalents totaled $73.4 million, $67.2 million and $62.3 million, respectively, and working capital totaled $799.9 million, $799.8 million and $752.3 million, respectively.  Our primary sources of working capital are cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our financing arrangements, as described below.

 

On June 18, 2014, we entered into a term loan credit agreement that provides for a senior secured term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (the “Term Loan”) and a $500.0 million asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “ABL Facility”, and together with the Term Loan, the “Credit Facilities”) with certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and Moores the Suit People Inc., one of our Canadian subsidiaries, as co-borrowers.  In addition, on June 18, 2014, we issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.00% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes”).

 

The Credit Facilities and the Senior Notes contain customary non-financial and financial covenants, including fixed charge coverage ratios, total leverage ratios and secured leverage ratios, as well as a restriction on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock in excess of $10.0 million per quarter.  Since entering into these financing arrangements and as of August 1, 2015, our total leverage ratio and secured leverage ratio were above the maximums specified in the agreements, which was anticipated when we entered into these arrangements.  As a result, we are currently subject to certain additional restrictions, including limitations on our ability to make acquisitions and incur additional indebtedness.

 

The Term Loan is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and will mature on June 18, 2021.  The interest rate on the Term Loan is based on 3-month LIBOR, which was approximately 0.31% at August 1, 2015.    However, the Term Loan interest rate is subject to a LIBOR floor of 1% per annum, plus the applicable margin which is currently 3.50%, resulting in a total interest rate of 4.50%.  In January 2015, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to swap variable-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest payments on a notional amount of $520.0 million, effective in February 2015.  The interest rate swap agreement matures in August 2018 and has periodic interest settlements.  Under this interest rate swap agreement, we receive a floating rate based on 3-month LIBOR and pay a fixed rate of 5.03% (including the applicable margin of 3.50%) on the outstanding notional amount.

On April 7, 2015, we entered into Incremental Facility Agreement No. 1 (the “Incremental Agreement”) resulting in a refinancing of $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of our Term Loan from a variable rate to a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum.  The Incremental Agreement did not impact the total amount borrowed under the Term Loan, the maturity date of the Term Loan of June 18, 2021, or collateral and guarantees under the existing Term Loan.

 

As a result of the interest rate swap and the Incremental Agreement, we have converted a majority of the variable interest rate under the Term Loan to a fixed rate and, as of August 1, 2015, the Term Loan had a weighted average interest rate of 4.93%.

 

The ABL Facility provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of $500.0 million, with possible future increases to $650.0 million with an expansion feature, which matures on June 18, 2019, and is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries.  The ABL Facility has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBOR, (ii) Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, (iii) Canadian prime rate or (iv) alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% or adjusted LIBOR for a one-month period plus 1.0%).  Advances under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin of up to 2.00%.  The ABL Facility also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit which range from 1.50% to 2.00%, and a fee on unused commitments which ranges from 0.25% to 0.375%.

 

The obligations under the Credit Facilities are secured on a senior basis by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, certain of its U.S. subsidiaries and, in the case of the ABL Facility, Moores The Suit People Inc. The Credit Facilities and the related guarantees and security interests granted thereunder are senior secured obligations of, and will rank equally with all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company, the co-borrowers and the respective guarantors.

 

The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains customary non-financial covenants and the Senior Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries.   The Senior Notes will mature on July 1, 2022.  Interest on the Senior Notes is payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year.

 

We may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time on or after July 1, 2017 at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the Senior Notes.  At any time prior to July 1, 2017, we will have the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.  We may also redeem up to a maximum of 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes with the proceeds of certain equity offerings prior to July 1, 2017 at a redemption price of 107% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.  Upon the occurrence of certain specific changes of control, we may be required to offer to purchase the Senior Notes at 101% of their aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase.

 

We had entered into a registration rights agreement regarding the Senior Notes pursuant to which we agreed, among other things, to use our commercially reasonable efforts to consummate an exchange offer of the Senior Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on or before July 13, 2015.  On June 24, 2015, the exchange offer was completed.

 

We utilize letters of credit primarily to secure inventory purchases and as collateral for workers compensation claims.  Except for letters of credit totaling approximately $24.1 million issued and outstanding, no amounts were drawn on the ABL Facility as of August 1, 2015 and we have approximately $423.6 million of borrowing availability under the ABL Facility as of August 1, 2015.

 

Cash flow activities

 

Operating activities — Net cash provided by operating activities was $94.9 million and $13.9 million for the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.  The $81.0 million increase was driven by an increase in net earnings, a decrease in inventory purchases driven by the rollout of Joseph Abboud merchandise in the prior year and changes in accounts receivable, primarily related to credit card receivables.  These favorable impacts were partially offset by fluctuations in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, primarily driven by accrued Jos. A. Bank transaction costs in the prior year.

Investing activities — Net cash used in investing activities was $56.8 million and $1,532.2 million for the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.  The $1,475.5 million decrease was driven by last year’s acquisition of Jos. A. Bank partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures for new store openings, remodels and/or relocations and investments related to the integration of Jos. A. Bank.

 

Financing activities — Net cash used in financing activities was $27.4 million for the first six months of 2015 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1,525.8 million for the first six months of 2014.  The $1,553.2 million change in our financing activities was primarily driven by last year’s proceeds on our Term Loan and issuance of Senior Notes.

 

Share repurchase program — In March 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a $200.0 million share repurchase program for our common stock, which amended and replaced our then existing share repurchase program authorized by the Board in January 2011.  At January 31, 2015, the remaining balance available under the Board’s March 2013 authorization was $48.0 million.  During the first six months of 2015 and 2014, no shares were repurchased in open market transactions under the Board’s March 2013 authorization.

 

Dividends — Cash dividends paid were approximately $17.6 million and $17.5 million for the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.  During each of the quarters ended August 1, 2015 and August 2, 2014, we declared quarterly dividends of $0.18 per share.

 

Future sources and uses of cash

 

Our primary uses of cash are to finance working capital requirements of our operations and to repay our indebtedness.  In addition, we will use cash to fund capital expenditures, income taxes, integration costs associated with Jos. A. Bank, dividend payments, operating leases and various other commitments and obligations, as they arise.

 

Capital expenditures are anticipated to be in the range of $120.0 to $130.0 million for 2015.  This amount includes the anticipated costs to open approximately 20 Men’s Wearhouse stores, three to six Jos. A. Bank stores and three Moores stores and to expand and/or relocate approximately 13 existing Men’s Wearhouse stores, four existing Jos. A. Bank stores and three existing Moores stores.  During the first six months of 2015, we opened 14 stores (seven Men’s Wearhouse stores, one Joseph Abboud store, five Jos. A. Bank stores and one Moores store).  Capital expenditures for 2015 will also include integration projects for Jos. A. Bank, point-of-sale and other computer equipment and systems, store remodeling, distribution facilities and investment in other corporate assets.  The actual amount of future capital expenditures will depend in part on the number of new stores opened and the terms on which new stores are leased and the timing of our Jos. A. Bank integration projects, as well as on industry trends consistent with our anticipated operating plans.

 

Additionally, market conditions may produce attractive opportunities for us to make acquisitions.  Any such acquisitions may be undertaken as an alternative to opening new stores.  We may use cash on hand, together with cash flow from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facilities and issuances of debt or equity securities, to take advantage of any acquisition opportunities.

 

Current and future domestic and global economic conditions could negatively affect our future operating results as well as our existing cash and cash equivalents balances.  In addition, conditions in the financial markets could limit our access to additional capital resources, if needed, and could increase associated costs.  We believe based on our current business plan, that our existing cash and cash flows from operations and availability under our ABL Facility will be sufficient to fund our operating cash requirements, repayment of our indebtedness, planned store openings, relocations and remodels, other capital expenditures and integration costs associated with Jos. A. Bank.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires the appropriate application of accounting policies in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  In many instances, this also requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts and disclosures included in our financial statements.

 

We base our estimates on historical experience and various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under our current business model.  However, because future events and conditions and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results will differ from our estimates and such differences could be material to our financial statements.  There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015.

 

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.

 

We are exposed to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct sourcing programs and our operations in foreign countries.  In connection with our direct sourcing programs, we may enter into merchandise purchase commitments that are denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the operating entity.  Our risk management policy is to hedge a portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for our direct sourcing programs that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts.

 

As the foreign exchange forward contracts are with financial institutions, we are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by these parties but due to the creditworthiness of these major financial institutions, full performance is anticipated.

 

As discussed in Note 4 and Note 12 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we have undertaken steps to mitigate our exposure to changes in interest rates on our indebtedness.  As of August 1, 2015, 89% of our total debt was at a fixed rate with the remainder at a variable rate.  In addition, due to the existence of a LIBOR floor of 1% per annum on the portion of our debt subject to a variable rate, we believe our interest rate risk is substantially mitigated.  At August 1, 2015, the effect of one percentage point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $1.8 million change in annual interest expense on our Term Loan.

 

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal second quarter ended August 1, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

On June 18, 2014, we acquired Jos. A. Bank.  We excluded the operations of Jos. A. Bank from the scope of our Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 report on internal controls for the year ended January 31, 2015.  We are in the process of implementing our internal control structure over the acquired operations and expect that this effort will be completed in fiscal 2015.

 

In 2013, the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) issued an updated version of its Internal Control — Integrated Framework, referred to as the 2013 COSO Framework to replace the 1992 Framework.  Management’s assessment of the overall effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting for the year ending January 30, 2016 will be based on the 2013 COSO Framework and we do not expect the change to materially impact our overall control structure over financial reporting.
