BROWN SHOE COMPANY, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
|
|
Note 1 |
Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and reflect all adjustments and accruals of a normal recurring nature, which management believes are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations , comprehensive income, and cash flows of Brown Shoe Company, Inc. (the “Company”). These statements, however, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income , and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, after the elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.
The Company’s business is seasonal in nature due to consumer spending patterns, with higher back-to-school and Christmas and Easter holiday season sales. Traditionally, the third fiscal quarter accounts for a substantial portion of the Company’s earnings for the year. Interim results may not necessarily be indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole.
Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not affect net earnings attributable to Brown Shoe Company, Inc.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company 's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 1, 2014 .

Note 2 |
Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements |
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This guidance requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss ( “ NOL ” ) carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward, rather than as a liability, when the uncertain tax position would reduce the NOL or other carryforward under the tax law. The amendments in this ASU do not require new recurring financial disclosures. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on February 2, 2014 and it did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The ASU amends the definition of a discontinued operation by raising the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations and requires new disclosures for disposals of individually significant components that do not meet the new definition of a discontinued operation. Under the new guidance, discontinued operations treatment is required for disposals of a component or group of components that represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major impact on an entity’s operations or financial results. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized, based upon the core principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
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 , to clarify existing guidance in ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation . The guidance requires that performance targets achieved after the requisite service period be treated as performance conditions. As such, the performance target is not reflected in the estimation of the award’s grant date fair value. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The guidance may be adopted either prospectively for share-based payment awards granted or modified on or after the effective date, or retrospectively using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this guidance in the first quarter of 2016 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Discontinued Operations |
The Company’s discontinued operations include the Avia and Nevados brands of American Sporting Goods Corporation, as well as the Etienne Aigner and Vera Wang brands. There were no net sales or loss from discontinued operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2014. In aggregate, discontinued operations included net sales of $ 3.8 million and $24.3 million and loss before income taxes of $2. 0 million and $11.2 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively. For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, discontinued operations also included a $1.0 million gain and $11.5 million of costs, respectively, associated with the Company’s disposition/impairment of discontinued operations.
American Sporting Goods Corporation
On May 14, 2013, Brown Shoe International Corp. (“BSIC”), the sole shareholder of American Sporting Goods Corporation , entered into and simultaneously closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, BSIC and Galaxy Brand Holdings, Inc. (“the Buyer”), pursuant to which the Buyer acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of American Sporting Goods Corporation from BSIC and the Company agreed to provide certain transition services . In connection with the transaction, American Sporting Goods Corporation sold inventory to a third party unaffiliated with the Buyer and distributed certain assets to BSIC. The aggregate purchase price for the stock of American Sporting Goods Corporation and the provision of such transition services was $74.0 million, subject to working capital adjustments, minus the amount of the pre-closing cash dividend declared by American Sporting Goods Corporation and paid to BSIC, representing proceeds from American Sporting Goods Corporation’s sale of inventory.
The Company purchased American Sporting Goods Corporation, comprised of Avia, Nevados, Ryka, AND 1, and other businesses, on February 17, 2011 and subsequently sold AND 1 during fiscal 2011. The Avia and Nevados businesses were sold under the Stock Purchase Agreement and t he Company retained and is operating Ryka and other businesses . In this document, “ASG” refers to the subsidiary disposed on May 14, 2013, including the Avia and Nevados brands and excluding the Ryka brand and other retained businesses.
The Company received $60.3 million in cash and a promissory note of $ 12.0 million at closing, from the sale of stock, the sale of inventory, and for the provision of transition services, less working capital adjustments. The promissory note matured on November 14, 2013 . In accordance with the terms of the promissory note, the Company received a payment of $12.2 million on November 14, 2013, representing the note principal and accrued interest.
In anticipation of the sale of ASG, the Company recorded an impairment charge in the first quarter of 2013 of $ 12.6 million ($ 12.6 million after-tax, $0.30 per diluted share), representing the difference in the fair value less costs to sell as compared to the carrying value of the net assets to be sold. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company recognized a gain upon disposition of subsidiary of $1.0 million ( $1.0 million after-tax, $0.02 per diluted share). The impairment charge and gain upon disposition are reflected as disposition/impairment of discontinued operations, net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. ASG was previously included in the Wholesale Operations segment. Discontinued operations include net sales of $ 2.0 million and $20.3 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively. Discontinued operations include a loss before income taxes of $2. 6 million and $1.4 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively.

On April 29, 2013, an agreement to resolve the dispute was reached, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay Etienne Aigner $6.5 million. The financial results of Etienne Aigner and the $6.5 million settlement are reflected as a component of discontinued operations. The results of Etienne Aigner were previously included in the Wholesale Operations segment. Discontinued operations include net sales of $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively. Discontinued operations include earnings before income taxes of $0. 1 million and loss before income taxes of $ 6.9 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively.
Vera Wang
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company communicated its intention not to renew the Vera Wang license agreement. The financial results of Vera Wang are reflected as a component of discontinued operations. The results of Vera Wang were previously included in the Wholesale Operations segment. Discontinued operations include net sales of $1.6 million and $3.6 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively. Discontinued operations include earnings before income taxes of $0. 6 million and a loss before income taxes of $2. 8 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, respectively.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share attributable to Brown Shoe Company, Inc. shareholders for the periods ended August 2, 2014 and August 3, 2013:

Note 1 1 |
Risk Management and Derivatives |
In the normal course of business, the Company’s financial results are impacted by currency rate movements in foreign currency denominated assets, liabilities , and cash flows as it makes a portion of its purchases and sales in local currencies. The Company has established policies and business practices that are intended to mitigate a portion of the effect of these exposures. The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily forward contracts, to manage its currency exposures. These derivative instruments are viewed as risk management tools and are not used for trading or speculative purposes. Derivatives entered into by the Company are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency transactions.
Derivative financial instruments expose the Company to credit and market risk. The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from currency exchange movements is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions being hedged. The Company does not believe there is a significant risk of loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties associated with these instruments because these transactions are executed with major financial institutions and have varying maturities through July 2015 . Credit risk is managed through the continuous monitoring of exposures to such counterparties.
The Company’s hedging strategy principally uses foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges, which are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value, to offset a portion of the effects of exchange rate fluctuations. The Company’s cash flow exposures include anticipated foreign currency transactions, such as foreign currency denominated sales, costs, expenses, intercompany charges, as well as collections and payments. The effective portion of gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of these hedge instruments are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings in the period that the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. The Company performs a quarterly assessment of the effectiveness of the hedge relationship and measures and recognizes any hedge ineffectiveness in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.
18
Hedge ineffectiveness is evaluated using the hypothetical derivative method. The amount of hedge ineffectiveness for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2014 and August 3, 2013 was not material.
As of August 2, 2014, August 3, 2013, and February 1, 2014 , the Company had forward contracts maturing at various dates through July 2015 , August 2014 , and January 2015 , respectively. The contract notional amount represents the net amount of all purchase and sale contracts of a foreign currency.

Fair Value Measurements |
Fair Value Hierarchy
FASB guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (“observable inputs”) or reflect the Company’s own assumptions of market participant valuation (“unobservable inputs”). In accordance with the fair value guidance, the hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:
|
• |
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; |
|
• |
Level 2 – Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; |
|
• |
Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. Classification of the financial or non-financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
20
Measurement of Fair Value
The Company measures fair value as an exit price, the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, using the procedures described below for all financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value.
Money Market Funds
The Company has cash equivalents consisting of short-term money market funds backed by U.S. Treasury securities. The primary objective of these investing activities is to preserve the Company’s capital for the purpose of funding operations. The Company does not enter into money market funds for trading or speculative purposes. The fair value is based on unadjusted quoted market prices for the funds in active markets with sufficient volume and frequency (Level 1).
Deferred Compensation Plan Assets and Liabilities
The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) for the benefit of certain management employees. The investment funds offered to the participant generally correspond to the funds offered in the Company’s 401(k) plan, and the account balance fluctuates with the investment returns on those funds. The Deferred Compensation Plan permits the deferral of up to 50 % of base salary and 100 % of compensation received under the Company’s annual incentive plan. The deferrals are held in a separate trust, which has been established by the Company to administer the Deferred Compensation Plan. The assets of the trust are subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors in the event that the Company becomes insolvent. Consequently, the trust qualifies as a grantor trust for income tax purposes (i.e., a “Rabbi Trust”). The liabilities of the Deferred Compensation Plan are presented in other accrued expenses and the assets held by the trust are classified as trading securities within prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities are charged to selling and administrative expenses. The fair value is based on unadjusted quoted market prices for the funds in active markets with sufficient volume and frequency (Level 1).
Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors
Non-employee directors are eligible to participate in a deferred compensation plan with deferred amounts valued as if invested in the Company’s common stock through the use of phantom stock units (“PSUs”). Under the plan, each participating director’s account is credited with the number of PSUs that is equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock which the participant could purchase or receive with the amount of the deferred compensation, based upon the average of the high and low prices of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the fiscal quarter when the cash compensation was earned. Dividend equivalents are paid on PSUs at the same rate as dividends on the Company’s common stock and are re-invested in additional PSUs at the next fiscal quarter-end. The liabilities of the plan are based on the fair value of the outstanding PSUs and are presented in other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fai r value of the PSUs are presented in selling and administrative expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of earnings. The fair value of each PSU is based on an unadjusted quoted market price for the Company’s common stock in an active market with sufficient volume and frequency on each measurement date (Level 1).
Restricted Stock Units for Non-Employee Directors
Under the Company’s incentive compensation plans, cash-equivalent restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of the Company may be granted at no cost to non-employee directors. The RSUs are subject to a vesting requirement (usually one year), earn dividend-equivalent units, and are settled in cash on the date the director terminates service or such earlier date as a director may elect, subject to restrictions, based on the then current fair value of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of each RSU is based on an unadjusted quoted market price for the Company’s common stock in an active market with sufficient volume and frequency on each measurement date (Level 1). Additional information related to restricted stock units for non-employee directors is disclosed in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Performance Share Units
Under the Company’s incentive compensation plans, common stock or cash may be awarded at the end of the performance period at no cost to certain officers and key employees if certain financial goals are met. Under the plan, employees are granted performance share awards at a target number of shares or units, which generally vest over a three-year service period. At the end of the vesting period, the employee will have earned an amount of shares or units between 0% and 200% of the targeted award, depending on the achievement of specified financial goals for the service period. Each of the Company’s current unvested performance share awards utilize performanc e share units, which are settled in cash, rather than common stock. The fair value of each performance share unit is based on an unadjusted quoted market price of the Company’s common stock in an active market with sufficient volume and frequency on each measurement date (Level 1). Additional information related to performance share units is disclosed in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign exchange contracts, to reduce its exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. These foreign exchange contracts are measured at fair value using quoted forward foreign exchange prices from counterparties corroborated by market-based pricing (Level 2). Additional information related to the Company’s derivative financial instruments are disclosed within Note 1 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
21
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at August 2, 2014, August 3, 2013, and February 1, 2014 . The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 201 3 or the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2014 .

Impairment Charges
The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers important that could trigger an impairment review include underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, a significant change in the manner of the use of the asset , or a negative industry or economic trend. When the Company determines that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the aforementioned factors, impairment is measured based on a projected discounted cash flow method. Certain factors, such as estimated store sales and expenses, used for this nonrecurring fair value measurement are considered Level 3 inputs as defined by FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures . Long-lived assets held and used with a carrying amount of $85.5 million were assessed for indicators of impairment and written down to their fair value, resulting in i mpairment charges of $0.4 million for the thirteen weeks e nded August 2, 2014. Of the $0.4 million impairment charge included in selling and administrative expenses, $0.2 million related to the Famous Footwear segment and $0.2 million related to the Specialty Retail segment. An impairment charge of $0.7 million was recorded in selling and administrative expenses for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2014, of which $0.4 million related to the Famous Footwear segment and $0.3 million related to the Specialty Retail segment.
During the first quarter of 201 3 , the Company recognized an impairment charge of $4.7 million ( $4.7 million after tax, $0.11 per diluted share) related to certain supply chain and sourcing assets, which represented the excess net asset value over the estimated fair value of the assets less costs to sell. T he fair value of net assets was estimated based on the ant icipated sales proceeds. This was
22
considered a Level 2 input as the assets were not sold on an active market. The impairment charge was recorded as impairment of assets held for sale in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings and was included in the Wholesale Operations segment. These assets were sold in the second quarter of 2013, and the Company recognized an additional loss on sale of $0.6 million. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
During the second quarter of 2013, the Company sold ASG. The assets of ASG were determined to be held for sale at May 4, 2013, and an impairment charge of $12.6 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2013 within disposition/impairment of discontinued operations, net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings. The Company recognized a gain on disposition of $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2013. ASG was previously included within the Wholesale Operations segment. The fair value of assets was estimated based on the anticipated sales proceeds less costs to sell. This was considered a Level 2 input as the assets were not sold on an active market. See Note 3 and Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Fair Value of the Company’s Other Financial Instruments
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents (excluding money market funds discussed above), receivables, trade accounts payable , and borrowings under the revolving credit agreement approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Note 1 3 |
Income Taxes |
The Company’s effective tax rate can vary considerably from period to period, depending on a number of factors. The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate s from continuing operations were 31.4 % and 23.1% for the thirteen weeks and 32.7% and 36.4% for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2014 and August 3, 2013 , respectively. The increase in the Company’s effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2014 was primarily due to a lower anticipated full year mix of international earnings in lower tax jurisdictions as compared to the prior year. The effective tax rate was higher in the first half of 2013 due to the non-deductible nature of the $4.7 million impairment charge in the first quarter of 2013, as further described in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Commitments and Contingencies |
Environmental Remediation
Prior operations included numerous manufacturing and other facilities for which the Company may have responsibility under various environmental laws for the remediation of conditions that may be identified in the future. The Company is involved in environmental remediation and ongoing compliance activities at several sites and has been notified that it is or may be a potentially responsible party at several other sites.
Redfield
The Company is remediating, under the oversight of Colorado authorities, the groundwater and indoor air at its owned facility in Colorado (the “Redfield site” or, when referring to remediation activities at or under the facility, the “on-site remediation”) and residential neighborhoods adjacent to and near the property (the “off-site remediation”) that have been affected by solvents previously used at the facility. The on-site remediation calls for the operation of a pump and treat system (which prevents migration of contaminated groundwater off the property) as the final remedy for the site, subject to monitoring and periodic review of the on-site conditions and other remedial technologies that may be developed in the future. Off-site groundwater concentrations have been reducing over time since installation of the pump and treat system in 2000 and injection of clean water beginning in 2003. However, localized areas of contaminated bedrock just beyond the property line continue to impact off-site groundwater. The modified workplan for addressing this condition includes converting the off-site bioremediation system into a monitoring well network and employing different remediation methods in these recalcitrant areas. In accordance with the workplan, a pilot test was conducted of certain groundwater remediation methods and the results of that test were used to develop more detailed plans for remedial activities in the off-site areas, which were approved by the authorities and are being implemented in a phased manner. The results of groundwater monitoring are being used to evaluate the effectiveness of these activities. The liability for the on-site remediation was discounted at 4.8 %. On an undiscounted basis, the on-site remediation liability would be $15.7 m illion as of August 2, 2014. The Company expects to spend approximately $ 0.2 million in each of the next five years and $ 14. 7 million in the aggregate thereafter related to the on-site remediation.
The cumulative expenditures for both on-site and off-site remediation through August 2, 2014 were $ 26. 3 million. The Company has recovered a portion of these expenditures from insurers and other third parties. The reserve for the anticipated future remediation activities at August 2, 2014 is $ 9. 8 million, of which $ 8.8 million is recorded within other liabilities and $ 1. 0 million is recorded within other accrued expenses. Of the total $9. 8 million reserve, $ 5.1 million is for on-site remediation and $ 4. 7 million is for off-site remediation.
Other
The Company has completed its remediation efforts at its closed New York tannery and two associated landfills. In 1995, state environmental authorities reclassified the status of these sites as being properly closed and requiring only continued maintenance and monitoring through 2024. The Company has an accrued liability of $ 1.4 million at August 2, 2014 related to these sites, which has been discounted at 6.4 %. On an undiscounted basis, this liability would be $ 2.0 million. The Company expects to spend approximately $ 0.2 million in each of the next five years and $ 1.0 million in the aggregate thereafter related to these sites. In addition, various federal and state authorities have identified the Company as a potentially responsible party for remediation at certain other sites. However, the Company does not currently believe that its liability for such sites, if any, would be material.
Based on information currently available, the Company has an accrued liability of $ 11.2 million as of August 2, 2014 to complete the cleanup, maintenance and monitoring at all sites. Of the $11. 2 million liability, $ 10. 0 million is recorded in other liabilities and $ 1. 2 million is recorded in other accrued expenses. The Company continues to evaluate its estimated costs in conjunction with its environmental consultants and records its best estimate of such liabilities. However, future actions and the associated costs are subject to oversight and approval of various governmental authorities. Accordingly, the ultimate costs may vary, and it is possible costs may exceed the recorded amounts.
Litigation
The Company is involved in legal proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such ordinary course of business proceedings and litigation currently pending is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position. Legal costs associated with litigation are generally expensed as incurred.

ITEM 2 |
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OVERVIEW |
|
The financial results of our second quarter of 2014 reflect the health of both our retail and wholesale businesses, as we continue to benefit from our portfolio realignment efforts. Our Wholesale Operations segment reported improvements in net sales and gross profit, as our trend-right merchandise resonated with both consumers and retailers, while the Famous Footwear segment delivered record-setting second quarter net sales.
The following is a summary of the financial highlights for the second quarter of 2014:
|
|
· |
|
Consolidated net sales increased $ 14.2 million, or 2 . 3 %, to $ 635.9 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared to $ 621.7 million for the second quarter of 2013. In our Wholesale Operations segment, we saw continued improvement as net sales increased by $ 13.8 million, or 7.7 %. Net sales of our Famous Footwear segment increased by $ 5.4 million, reflecting continued growth in same-store sa les of 1.6% . Our Specialty Retail segment experienced a $ 5 .0 million decline in net sales in the second quarter of 2014, primarily driven by a lower store count and lower e-commerce sales, partially offset by a 2.3% in crease in same-store sales . |
|
|
· |
|
Consolidated operating earnings increased $8.5 million, or 37.2%, to $31.3 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $22.8 million for the second quarter of 2013, driven by higher sales and better leveraging of our expense base. |
|
|
· |
|
Consolidated net earnings attributable to Brown Shoe Company, Inc. were $18.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2014, compared to net earnings of $15.4 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2013. |
The following items impacted our second quarter results in 2014 and 2013 and should be considered in evaluating the comparability of our results:
|
|
· |
|
Franco Sarto Trademarks Acquisition – On February 3, 2014, we acquired the Franco Sarto trademarks for $65.0 million. As a result of acquiring the trademarks, our license agreement, which granted us the right to sell footwear and other products using the Franco Sarto trademarks through 2019 , was terminated. The license agreement required us to pay royalty expense on sales of Franco Sarto branded products. Beginning February 3, 2014, the date of acquisition, we are no longer required to record royalty expense for these sales , resulting in lower cost of goods sold and higher gross profit. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. |
|
|
· |
|
Portfolio Realignment – Our portfolio realignment efforts include d the sale of our Avia and Nevados divisions; the sale of AND 1; exiting certain women’s specialty and private label brands; exiting the children’s wholesale business; the sale and closure of certain sourcing and supply chain assets; closing or relocating numerous underperforming or poorly aligned retail stores; the termination of the Etienne Aigner license agreement; the election not to renew the Vera Wang license ; and other infrastructure changes. No portfolio realignment costs were incurred during the second quarter of 2014 compared to net gains of $ 1.2 million after-tax, or $0. 02 per diluted share, reported during the second quarter of 2013. A portion of these costs were reflected in discontinued operations, as further discussed in Note 3 and Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. |
Our debt-to-capital ratio, as defined herein, decreased to 28.1 % at August 2, 2014 , compared to 34.2 % at August 3, 2013 and 30.1 % at February 1 , 201 4. The improvement from August 3, 2013 was driven by our strong cash provided by operating activities and lower borrowings under our revolving credit agreement. As of August 2, 2014, we had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreement. Our current ra tio, as defined herein, was 1.74 to 1 at August 2, 2014 , compared to 1. 76 to 1 at August 3, 2013 and 2.05 to 1 at F ebruary 1, 2014. The decrease in the current ratio from February 1, 2014 to August 2, 2014 is primarily attributable to higher accounts payable and a decrease in our cash and cash equivalents and receivables, partially offset by an increase in inventory to support the higher level of anticipated sales as well as lower borrowings under our revolving credit agreement. The decrease in our cash and cash equivalents was due in part to the purchase of the Franco Sarto trademarks in early 2014, as discussed above.
Outlook for the Remainder of 2014
Despite a continued, industry-wide decline in traffic patterns and an overall tough retail environment, we delivered strong financial results in the second quarter. Based on our second quarter results, we expect consolidated net sales for the year to be between $2.58 billion and $2.60 billion. We also expect to earn $1.50 to $1.60 per diluted share in 2014.

Net sales at our Wholesale Operations and Famous Footwear segments increased while net sales at our Specialty Retail segment decreased . Our Wholesale Operations segment reported a $13.8 million increase in net sales, driven by strong sales of our Sam Edelman, V ince, and Dr. Scholl’s brands, partially offset by decreases in our Naturalizer and Franco Sarto brands. Our Famous Footwear segment reported a $5.4 million increase in net sales, reflecting a same-store sales increase of 1.6%, partially offset by a lower store count. The impacts of an improved customer conversion rate and an increase in pairs per transaction were partially offset by a decrease in customer traffic. Net sales of our Specialty Retail segment decreased $5.0 million due to a lower store count, lower sales from our e-commerce subsidiary, and a lower Canadian dollar exchange rate , partially offset by an increase in same-store sales of 2.3%.
Net sales increased $16.6 million, or 1.4%, to $1,227.0 million for the first half of 2014, compared to $1,210.4 million for the first half of 2013.

Famous Footwear experienced an improved customer conversion rate, an increase in pairs per transaction, and higher average unit retail prices, partially offset by a decline in customer traffic. Net sales of our Specialty Retail segment decreased $ 15.1 million due to a lower store count, lower sales from our e-commerce subsidiary, a lower Canadian dollar exchange rate , and a decrease in same-store sales of 1.5% .
Same-store sales changes are calculated by comparing the sales in stores that have been open at least 13 months. Relocated stores are treated as new stores, and closed stores are excluded from the calculation. Sales change from new and closed stores, net reflects the change in net sales due to stores that have been opened or closed during the period and are therefore excluded from the same-store
36
sales calculation. E-commerce sales for those e-commerce websites that function as an extension of a retail chain are included in the same-store sales calculation.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased $ 2.8 million, or 1.2 %, to $ 228.3 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 231.1 million in the second quarter of 201 3 driven by lower expenses in our Wholesale Operations and Specialty Retail segment s, partially of fset by higher expenses in our Famous Footwear segment.

Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $0. 1 million, or 1.3 %, to $ 5.1 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 5.2 million for the second quarter of 201 3 , primarily reflecting lower average borrowings under our revolving credit agreement.

Income Tax Provision
Our effective tax rate can vary considerably from period to period, depending on a number of factors.

For the first half of 2014, our consolidated effective tax rate from continuing operations was 32.7%, as compared to 36.4% in the prior year . The increase in our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2014 was primarily due to a lower anticipated full year mix of international earnings in lower-tax jurisdictions as compared to the prior year. The effective tax rate was higher in the first half of 2013 due to the non-deductible nature of the $4.7 million impairment charge discussed above.
Net Earnings from Continuing Operations

N et earnings from discontinued operations were $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2013, with no corresponding net earnings during the second quarter of 2014 .

Net loss from discontinued operations was $16.5 million during the first half of 2013, with no corresponding net loss during the first half of 2014. The net loss is primarily related to a non-cash impairment charge resulting from the sale of our Avia and Nevados divisions of $12.6 million during the first quarter of 2013, reflecting the estimated fair value of those assets, partially offset by a gain of $1.0 million recognized upon the sale, as further described in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Net Sales
Net sales increased $ 13.8 million, or 7.7 %, to $ 194.3 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 180.5 million for the second quarter of 201 3 . The increase reflects strength in many of our brands including Sam Edelman, Vince, and Dr. Scholl’s, partially offset by decreases in our Naturalizer and Franco Sarto brands. Our unfilled order position increased $ 56.8 million, or 22.1 %, from $257.7 million as of August 3, 2013 to $ 314.5 million as of August 2, 2014 primarily due to growth in our Dr. Scholl’s, Naturalizer, Vince, and Franco Sarto brands .
Net sales increased $ 24 .0 million, or 6.6 %, to $ 386.1 million for the first half of 2014, compared to $ 362.1 million for the first half of 2013.

As a percentage o f net sales, our gross profit was 32.6 % for the second quarter of 201 4, compared to 31.0 % for the second quarter of 201 3 . The increase in our gross profit rate was driven by margin improvement from several of our wholesale brands as well as lower royalty expense due to the acquisition of the Franco Sarto trademarks in the first quarter of 2014, partially offset by the reduced gross profit impact from lower sales of our wholesale brands through o ur retail divisions in the second quarter of 2014.
Gross profit increased $11.6 million, or 10.2 %, to $ 125.3 million for the first half of 2014 , compared to $ 113.7 million for the first half of 201 3 , reflecting the increase in net sales volume and higher gross profit rate . As a percentage o f net sales, our gross profit in creased to 32.5 % for the first half of 201 4, from 31.4 % for the first half of 201 3 . The increase in our gross profit rate was driven by the same factors described above for the quarter .

Sellin g and administrative expenses decreased $2.9 million, or 6.2%, to $44.1 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 47.0 million for the second quarter of 201 3, driven in part by lower warehouse expenses during the quarter. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 22.7 % for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to 26.1 % for the second quarter of 201 3 , reflecting better leveraging of our expense base over higher net sales.
Sellin g and administrative expenses decreased $4.2 million, or 4.3 %, to $ 92.3 million for the first half of 201 4 , compared to $ 96.5 million for the first half of 201 3, driven by lower warehouse expenses .

Restructuring and Other Special Charges, Net
We incurred no restructuring and other special charges during the second quarter and first half of 2014, compared to $ 0.7 million and $1.2 million during the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively . Our portfolio realignment efforts include d the exit of certain brands, the sale and closure of sourcing and supply chain assets, and other changes to our infrastructur e, as further discussed in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of Assets Held for Sale
During the first half of 2013 , we recorded an impairment charge of $ 4.7 million to adjust certain sourcing and supply chain assets held for sale to their estimated fair value, as further discussed in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. There was no corresponding charge during the first half of 2014.
Operating Earnings
Operating earnings increased $ 11.0 million to $ 19.2 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 8.2 million for the second quarter of 201 3 .

Operating earnings increased $ 21.7 million to $ 33.0 million for the first half of 201 4 , compared to $ 11.3 million for the first half of 201 3 . The increase was primarily driven by higher net sales and gross profit rate and no expenses for impairment of assets held for sale and restructuring and other spe cial charges . As a percentage of net sales, operating earnings increased to 8.5 % for the first half of 201 4 , compared to 3.1 % in the first half of 201 3 .

Net Sales
Net sales decreased $ 5.0 million, or 9.5 %, to $ 48.0 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 53.0 million for the second quarter of 201 3 . The decrease in net sales reflects a lower store count due in part to the transfer of our China retail operations to C. banner International Holdings Limited, as further discussed in Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, a $ 1.9 million decrease in net sales at our e-commerce subsidiary, and a lower Canadian dollar exchange rate , partially offset by an increase in same-store sales of 2.3%. We opened three new retail stores and closed five stores during the second quarter of 201 4 , resulting in a total of 170 stores and total square footage of 0. 3 million at the end of the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to 2 15 stores (including 2 6 Naturalizer stores in China) and total square footage of 0. 3 million at the end of the second quarter of 2013 . During 2013, all Naturalizer stores in China were either closed or transferred to our joint venture partner. S ales per square foot, excluding e-commerce, increased 2.4% to $ 104 for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $102 for the second quarter of 2013.
Net sales decreased $ 15.1 million, or 13.9 %, to $ 92.7 million for the first half of 201 4 , compared to $ 107.8 million for the first half of 201 3 . The decrease in net sales reflects a lower store count due in part to the transfer of our China retail operations to C. banner International Holdings Limited as further discussed in Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, a $ 5.6 million decrease in net sales at our e-commerce subsidiary, a lower Canadian dollar exchange rate , and a decrease in same-store sales of 1.5%. Sales per square foot, excluding e-commerce, decreased 2.1% to $ 189 for the first half of 201 4 , compared to $193 for the first half of 2013. On a trailing twelve-month basis, sales per square foot, excluding e-commerce, decreased 1.7% to $393 for the twelve months ended August 2, 2014 compared to $400 for the twelve months ended August 3, 2013.

Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased $ 3.0 million, or 13.7 %, to $ 18.7 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 21.7 million for the second quarter of 201 3 , dri ven by the decrease in net sales and a lower gross profit rate . As a percentage of net s ales, our gross profit decreased to 39.0% for the second quarter of 2014 from 40.9% for the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in our gross profit rate was primarily driven by an unfavorable sales mix of lower margin product and higher inventory markdowns to clear inventory .
Gross profit decreased $ 7.9 million, or 17.6 %, to $ 37.3 million for the first half of 201 4 , compared to $ 45.2 million for the first half of 201 3 , dri ven by the decrease in net sales and a lower gross profit rate . As a percentage of net s ales, our gross profit decreased to 40.2% for the first half of 2014 from 42.0% for the first half of 2013, reflecting the same factors described above .
Selling and Administrative Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses decreased $ 2.1 million, or 8.6 %, to $ 21.5 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to $ 23.6 million for the second quarter of 201 3 , reflecting lower facility and employee expenses as a result of our lower store count as well as a lower Canadian dollar exchange rate . As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses increased to 44.8 % for the second quarter of 201 4 from 44.3% for the second quarter of 201 3 .
Selling and administrative expenses decreased $ 4.6 million, or 9.6 %, to $ 43.8 million for the first half of 201 4 , compared to $ 48.4 million for the first half of 201 3 , reflecting the above named factors. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses increased to 47.2% for the first half of 2014 from 44.9% for the first half of 2013, reflecting the de-leveraging of the expense base over lower net sales.
Operating Loss
Specialty Retail reported an operating loss of $ 2.8 million for the second quarter of 201 4 , compared to an operating loss of $ 1.9 million for the second quarter of 201 3. The increase in our operating loss was primarily driven by lower net sales and gross profit rate , partially offset by lower selling and administrative expenses, as discussed above.

Total debt obligations decreased $ 22.8 million to $ 199.1 million at August 2, 2014 , compared to $ 221.9 million at August 3, 2013 , and decreased $ 6.9 million from $ 206.0 million at February 1 , 201 4 due to lower borrowings under our revolving credit agreement, resulting from our strong cash provided by operating activities over the respective periods, partially offset by the $65 million acquisition of the Franco Sarto trademarks in the first quarter of 2014 . As a result of the lower average borrowings under our revolving credit agreement, interest expense for the f irst half of 2014 decreased $0.6 million t o $10.4 million, compared to $11.0 million for the first half of 2013.
Credit Agreement
On January 7, 2011, Brown Shoe Company, Inc. and certain of our subsidiaries (the “Loan Parties”) entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which was further amended on February 17, 2011 (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement matures on January 7, 2016 and provides for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of up to $530.0 million, subject to the calculated borrowing base restrictions, and provides for an increase at our option of up to $150.0 million from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement (the “general purpose accordion feature”) subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and the willingness of existing or new lenders to assume the increase.
43
Borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement is limited to the lesser of the total commitments and the borrowing base, which is based on stated percentages of the sum of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as defined, less applicable reserves. Under the Credit Agreement, the Loan Parties’ obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in all accounts receivable, inventory, and certain other collateral.
Interest on borrowings is at variable r ates based on the London Interb ank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or the prime rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus a spread. The interest rate and fees for letters of credit vary based upon the level of excess availability under the Credit Agreement. There is an unused line fee payable on the unused portion under the facility and a letter of credit fee payable on the outstanding face amount under letters of credit.
The Credit Agreement limits our ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments or specified payments, give guarantees, pay dividends, make capital expenditures and merge or acquire or sell assets. In addition, certain additional covenants would be triggered if excess availability were to fall below specified levels, including fixed charge coverage ratio requirements. Furthermore, if excess availability falls below the greater of (i) 15.0% of the lesser of (x) the borrowing base or (y) the total commitments and (ii) $35.0 million for three consecutive business days, or an event of default occurs, the lenders may assume dominion and control over our cash (a “cash dominion event”) until such event of default is cured or waived or the excess availability exceeds such amount for 30 consecutive days.
The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to other material indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, judgment defaults in excess of a certain threshold, the failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the agreement to be in full force and effect and a change of control event. In addition, if the excess availability falls below the greater of (i) 12.5% of the lesser of (x) the borrowing base or (y) the total commitments and (ii) $35.0 million, and the fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.0 to 1.0, we would be in default under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also contains certain other covenants and restrictions. We were in compliance with all covenants and restrictions under the Credit Agreement as of August 2, 2014 in all material respects .
At August 2, 2014 , we had no borrowings outstanding and $ 6.4 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Total borrowing availability was $523. 6 million at August 2, 2014 . While we had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of August 2, 2014 , we anticipate using the facility to fund prospective working capital needs .
$200 Million Senior Notes Due 2019
On May 11, 2011, we issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.125% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Senior Notes”). We used a portion of the net proceeds to call and redeem the outstanding 8.75% senior notes due in 2012. We used the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repaying amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The 2019 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our subsidiaries that is an obligor under the Credit Agreement. Interest on the 2019 Senior Notes is payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The 2019 Senior Notes mature on May 15, 201 9. We may redeem all or a part of the 2019 Senior Notes at the redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on May 15 of the years indicated below:

The 2019 Senior Notes also contain certain other covenants and restrictions that limit certain activities including, among other things, levels of indebtedness, payments of dividends, the guarantee or pledge of assets, certain investments, common stock repurchases, mergers and acquisitions , and sales of assets. As of August 2, 2014 , we were in compliance with all covenants and restrictions relating to the 2019 Senior Notes in all material respects.

Reasons for the major variances in cash provided (used) in the table above are as follows:
Cash provided b y operating activities was $31.0 million higher in the first half of 2014 as compared to the first half of 2013 , reflecting the following factors:
|
|
· |
|
Higher net earnings; |
|
|
· |
|
A larger increase in trade accounts payable in the first half of 2014 compared to the comparable period in 2013 due to the timing of payments and payables associated with higher inventory levels at August 2, 2014 ; and |
|
|
· |
|
A decrease in accounts receivable in the first half of 2014 compared to an increase in the comparable period in 2013 due to strong customer collections; partially offset by |
|
|
· |
|
A smaller increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the first half of 2014 compared to the comparable period in 20 13 . |
Cash used for investing activities was $ 130.2 million higher in the first half of 2014 , as compared to the comparable period in 201 3 due primarily to the $ 65 million acquisition of the Franco Sarto trademarks in the first quarter of 2014 and the $69.3 million of net proceeds from the sale of subsidiaries in the first half of 2013 . We expect purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software of approximately $55 million to $60 million in 2014.
Cash used for financing activities was $ 76.5 million lower for the first half of 2014 as compared to the comparable period in 201 3 primarily due to lower net repayments under our Credit Agreement .

Debt-to-capital ratio (3) |

|
|
(1) |
|
Working capital has been computed as total current assets less total current liabilities. |
|
|
(2) |
|
The current ratio has been computed by dividing total current assets by total current liabilities. |
|
|
(3) |
|
The debt-to-capital ratio has been computed by dividing total debt by total capitalization. Total debt is defined as long-term debt and borrowings under the revolving credit agreement. Total capitalization is defined as total debt and total shareholders’ equity. |
Working capital at August 2, 2014 was $ 368.3 million, which was $ 37.4 million low er than at February 1 , 201 4 and $ 5.8 million higher than at August 3, 2013 . Our current ratio decreased to 1.74 to 1 as of August 2, 2014, compared to 2.05 to 1 at February 1 , 201 4 , and 1.76 to 1 at August 3, 2013. The decreases in working capital and the current ratio from February 1, 2014 to August 2, 2014 are primarily attributable to higher accounts payable and a decrease in our cash and cash equivalents and receivables, partially offset by higher inventory levels and lower borrowings under our revolving credit agreement. Our debt-to-capital ratio was 28.1 % as of August 2, 2014 , compared to 30.1 % as of February 1, 2014 and 34.2 % as of August 3, 2013 . The decrease in our debt-to-capital ratio from February 1 , 201 4 and August 3, 2013 is due to the impact of our net earnings and lower borrowings under our revolving credit agreement .
At August 2, 2014 , we had $ 46.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, substantially all of which represents cash and cash equivalents of our foreign subsidiaries. In accordance with Internal Revenue Service guidelines limiting the length of time that our parent company can borrow funds from foreign subsidiaries, Brown Shoe Company, Inc. utilizes the cash and cash equivalents of its foreign subsidiaries to manage the liquidity needs of the consolidated company and minimize interest expense on a consolidated basis.

As further discussed in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, on February 3, 2014, we purchased the Franco Sarto trademarks for $65.0 million.
We declared and paid dividends of $0.07 per share in both the second quarter of 201 4 and the second quarter of 201 3 . The declaration and payment of any future dividend is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, business conditions, and other factors deemed rel evant by our Board of Directors. H owever, we presently expect that dividends will continue to be paid.

Except for changes within the normal course of business (primarily changes in purchase obligations, which fluctuate throughout the year as a result of the seasonal nature of our operations, borrowings under and repayments of our revolving credit agreement , and changes in operating lease commitments as a result of new stores, store closures and lease renewals) , t here have been no other significant changes to our contractual obligations identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 1 , 201 4 .

ITEM 4 |
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
It is the Chief Executive Officer's and Chief Financial Officer's ultimate responsibility to ensure we maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures include mandatory communication of material events, automated accounting processing and reporting, management review of monthly, quarterly and annual results, an established system of internal controls, and internal control reviews by our internal auditors.
A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to errors or fraud may occur and not be detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance that their objectives are achieved. As of August 2, 2014, management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
There were no significant changes to internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended August 2, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

On August 25, 2011, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to 2.5 million shares of our outstanding common stock. We can utilize the repurchase program to repurchase shares on the open market or in private transactions from time to time, depending on market conditions. The repurchase program does not have an expiration date. Under this plan, no shares were repurchased through the end of the second quarter of 2014; therefore, there were 2.5 million shares authorized to be purchased under the program as of August 2, 2014. Our repurchases of common stock are limited under our debt agreements. |
