NOTES:

1.
Financial Statements

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

2.
Acquisitions

Bogs acquisition
On March 2, 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of The Combs Company (“Bogs”) from its former shareholders for $29.3 million in cash plus debt assumed of $3.8 million and contingent payments after two and five years, dependent on Bogs achieving certain performance measures.  In accordance with the agreement, $2.0 million of the cash portion of the purchase price was held back to be used to help satisfy any claims of indemnification by the Company, and any amounts not used therefore, will be paid to the seller 18 months from the date of acquisition.  At the acquisition date, the Company preliminarily estimated the fair value of the two contingent payments to be approximately $9.8 million in the aggregate.  Bogs designs and markets boots, shoes and sandals for men, women and children, under the BOGS and Rafters brand names.  Its products are sold across the agricultural, industrial, outdoor specialty, outdoor sport, lifestyle and fashion markets.  Bogs sales for its most recent fiscal year were approximately $27 million.

The acquisition was funded with available cash and short-term borrowings under the Company’s $50 million borrowing facility.

The acquisition of Bogs has been accounted for in these financial statements as a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”).  Under ASC 805, the total purchase price is allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the acquisition date.  The determination of fair values requires an extensive use of estimates and judgments, and accordingly, the allocation in the table below is preliminary and will be adjusted upon completion of the final valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Such adjustments could be significant.  The final valuation is expected to be completed as soon as practicable but no later than 12 months after the closing date of the acquisition.


The Company’s preliminary allocation of the purchase price as of June 30, 2011 is as follows (dollars in thousands):
Cash
$ 317
Accounts receivable, net
3,962
Inventory
2,809
Prepaids
15
Deferred income tax benefits
85
Property, plant and equipment, net

Goodwill
11,027
Trademark
22,000
Other intangible assets
3,700
Accounts payable
(454 )
Accrued liabilities
(561 )
$ 42,907

Other intangible assets consist of customer relationships and a non-compete agreement.  Goodwill reflects the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets, and has been assigned to the North American wholesale segment.  All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.  For more information on the intangible assets acquired, see Note 5.

The Company has recorded the estimated fair value of the contingent payments at the acquisition date, of $9.8 million, within other long-term liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The estimated fair value of the contingent payments was based on a probability-weighted model, and is subject to change.  Any changes within the 12 months following the acquisition date that relate to factors that existed at the acquisition date will be reflected within the final valuation of the purchase price.  Any changes thereafter will be recognized in earnings.  A change in the fair value of the contingent payments could have a material effect on the Company’s earnings and financial position.  The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a level 3 valuation as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”).

The operating results of Bogs for the period March 2 through June 30, 2011 have been consolidated into the Company’s North American wholesale operations in 2011.  For the second quarter and for the period March 2 through June 30, 2011, net sales of Bogs were approximately $2.6 million and $4.9 million, respectively.  The Company incurred transaction costs of approximately $220,000 in 2011.  These costs are included in wholesale selling and administrative expenses.


Pro Forma Results of Operations

The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assume that the Company acquired Bogs on January 1, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The unaudited pro forma results include adjustments to reflect additional amortization of intangible assets, interest expense and a corresponding estimate of the provision for income taxes.

The unaudited pro forma information presented above is not necessarily indicative of either the results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisition of Bogs been effective on January 1, 2011 or 2010, respectively, or of the Company’s future results of operations.

Umi acquisition

On April 28, 2010, the Company acquired certain assets, including the Umi brand name, intellectual property and accounts receivable, from Umi LLC, a children’s footwear company, for an aggregate price of approximately $2.6 million.  The acquisition has been accounted for in these financial statements as a business combination under ASC 805.  The Company allocated the purchase price to accounts receivable, trademarks and other assets.  The operating results of Umi have been consolidated into the Company’s North American wholesale segment since the date of acquisition.  Accordingly, the Company’s 2011 results included Umi’s operations from January 1 through June 30, 2011, while 2010 only included Umi for the period April 28 through June 30, 2011.  Additional disclosures required by ASC 805 have not been provided as the Umi acquisition was not material to the Company’s financial statements.

Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 excluded outstanding options to purchase 460,675 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $26.80, as they were antidilutive.   Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 excluded outstanding options to purchase 284,050 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $28.46, as they were antidilutive.

4.
Investments

As noted in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, all of the Company’s investments are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized cost pursuant to ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities as the Company has the intent and ability to hold all security investments to maturity.

The amortized cost of all marketable securities as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 as reported in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets was $59.1 million and $63.0 million, respectively.  The estimated fair market value of those marketable securities at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $61.3 million and $64.2 million, respectively.

The unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were:

The Company’s amortized intangible assets are included within other assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The change in the carrying amount of goodwill and other intangible assets is due to the Bogs acquisition on March 2, 2011.  See Note 2.  The indefinite-lived assets and goodwill will be evaluated for impairment at least annually and more often when events indicate that impairment exists.

Excluding the impact of any future acquisitions, the Company anticipates amortization expense to be approximately $228,000 in 2011 and $273,000 annually in the years 2012 through 2015.


6.
Segment Information

The Company has two reportable segments: North American wholesale operations (“wholesale”) and North American retail operations (“retail”).  The chief operating decision maker, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of its segments based on earnings from operations and accordingly, interest income, interest expense and other income and expense are not allocated to the segments.  The “other” category in the table below includes the Company’s wholesale and retail operations in Australia, South Africa, Asia Pacific and Europe, which do not meet the criteria for separate reportable segment classification.  Summarized segment data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was:

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the Company’s outlook for the future.  These statements represent the Company's reasonable judgment with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.  The reader is cautioned that these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties or other factors that may cause (and in some cases have caused) actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk factors described under Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

GENERAL

The Company designs and markets quality and innovative footwear for men, women and children under a portfolio of well-recognized brand names including: Florsheim, Nunn Bush, Stacy Adams, BOGS, Rafters and Umi.  Inventory is purchased from third-party overseas manufacturers. The majority of foreign-sourced purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars.

The Company has two reportable segments, North American wholesale operations (“wholesale”) and North American retail operations (“retail”).  In the wholesale segment, the Company’s products are sold to leading footwear, department and specialty stores primarily in the United States and Canada.  The Company also has licensing agreements with third parties who sell its branded apparel, accessories and specialty footwear in the United States, as well as its footwear in Mexico and certain markets overseas.  Licensing revenues are included in the Company’s wholesale segment.

The Company’s retail segment consisted of 31 Company-owned retail stores in the United States and an Internet business as of June 30, 2011.  Sales in retail outlets are made directly to consumers by Company employees.

The Company’s “other” operations include the Company’s wholesale and retail operations in Australia, South Africa, Asia Pacific (collectively, “Florsheim Australia”) and Europe (“Florsheim Europe”).  The majority of the Company’s operations are in the United States, and its results are primarily affected by the economic conditions and the retail environment in the United States.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Recent Acquisitions

Bogs
On March 2, 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of The Combs Company (“Bogs”) from its former shareholders for $29.3 million in cash plus assumed debt of approximately $3.8 million and contingent payments after two and five years, which are dependent on Bogs achieving certain performance measures.  In accordance with the agreement, $2.0 million of the cash portion of the purchase price was held back to be used to help satisfy any claims of indemnification by the Company, and any amounts not used therefore, will be paid to the sellers 18 months from the date of acquisition.  At the acquisition date, the Company preliminarily estimated the fair value of the two contingent payments to be approximately $9.8 million.

Bogs designs and markets boots, shoes and sandals for men, women and children, under the BOGS and Rafters brand names.  Its products are sold across the agricultural, industrial, outdoor specialty, outdoor sport, lifestyle and fashion markets.

Sales of Bogs for its most recent fiscal year were approximately $27 million.  The Company expects the acquisition to be accretive to earnings in 2011, excluding the impact of certain purchase accounting adjustments as well as transaction and integration costs.  However, most of that accretion is expected to occur in the second half of the year, as the majority of Bogs’ sales occur in the third and fourth quarters.

The operating results of Bogs have been consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition, within the North American wholesale segment.  Transaction costs of $220,000 have been included within the 2011 wholesale selling and administrative expenses.  See Note 2.

Umi
On April 28, 2010, the Company acquired certain assets, including the Umi brand name, intellectual property and accounts receivable, from Umi LLC, a children’s footwear company, for an aggregate price of approximately $2.6 million.  The operating results of Umi have been consolidated into the Company’s North American wholesale segment since the date of acquisition.  Accordingly, the Company’s 2011 results included Umi’s operations from January 1 through June 30, 2011, while 2010 included Umi only for the period April 28 through June 30, 2010.  See Note 2.

Second Quarter Highlights

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2011 were $56.6 million, an increase of 16% from last year’s second quarter net sales of $48.7 million.  North American wholesale sales were up $4.1 million, of which $2.6 million was related to Bogs.  Retail sales were up approximately $565,000.  Sales in the Company’s other businesses increased $3.2 million compared with the second quarter of 2010.



The Company’s consolidated earnings from operations for this year’s second quarter were $2.7 million, up from $1.7 million last year.  This was primarily the result of higher sales and gross margins achieved at Florsheim Australia.  The Company also benefited from higher retail sales volumes and flat selling and administrative expenses at retail.  Wholesale earnings from operations were down due to the inclusion of Bogs’ second quarter operations.  Bogs’ sales in the second quarter are typically low during this period due to seasonality, and most operating costs are fixed in nature.  In addition, the Company incurred transition costs associated with moving Bogs’ operations from Eugene, Oregon, and integrating them into its Glendale, Wisconsin facility.  This transition was completed by June 30 th , 2011.

The Company’s net earnings attributable to Weyco Group, Inc. this quarter were $1.9 million compared with $1.3 million in the same quarter last year.  Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $.17 per share compared with $.11 per share in last year’s second quarter.

Year to Date Highlights

Consolidated net sales for the first half of 2011 were $121.7 million compared with $109.8 million last year.  North American wholesale sales increased $7.6 million in the first half of this year compared with last year.  The acquisitions of Bogs and Umi contributed to the wholesale sales increase this year.  Bogs contributed $4.9 million of sales this year and Umi contributed $1.5 million of sales this year.  Sales in the retail segment were up approximately $870,000, and sales in the Company’s other businesses increased $3.4 million.

The Company’s consolidated earnings from operations for the first six months of 2011 were $7.5 million compared with $7.1 million last year.  The Company achieved higher gross earnings from operations this year through higher sales volumes and gross margins at Florsheim Australia and increased sales volumes in the retail segment.  Earnings from operations in the wholesale segment for the first half of 2011 were down due to the inclusion of Bogs’ operations this year.  Bogs had an operating loss for the period March 2 through June 30, 2011, as Bogs’ sales are typically low during the first and second quarters of the year due to seasonality, and its operating costs are primarily fixed in nature.  In addition, the Company incurred transition costs associated with moving Bogs’ operations from Eugene, Oregon, and integrating them into its Glendale, Wisconsin facility.  This transition was completed by June 30 th , 2011.

Consolidated net earnings attributable to Weyco Group, Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $5.3 million compared with $5.1 million in 2010.  Diluted earnings per share to-date through June 30, 2011 were $.47 compared with $.45 for the same period in 2010.

Financial Position Highlights

At June 30, 2011, cash and marketable securities totaled $69.3 million and total outstanding debt was $35.9 million.  At December 31, 2010, cash and marketable securities totaled $70.2 million and total outstanding debt was $5.0 million.  During 2011, the Company drew additional amounts under its revolving line of credit to finance the March 2, 2011 acquisition of Bogs.  See Note 2.

The growth at Stacy Adams in the second quarter reflects the late timing of Easter in 2011, which resulted in business shifting from the first quarter into the second quarter.  Easter is an important retail holiday for the Stacy Adams brand.  Also, throughout the first six months of 2011, Stacy Adams experienced strong sales of mainstream fashion footwear to national accounts.  Quarterly and year-to-date sales of the Nunn Bush and Florsheim brands were relatively flat between years.  Net sales of Bogs in the current year represent sales from the acquisition date of March 2 through June 30, 2011.  Sales of Umi in 2010 represent sales from the acquisition date of April 28 through June 30, 2010.


Licensing revenues consist of royalties earned on the sales of branded apparel, accessories and specialty footwear in the United States and on branded footwear in Mexico and certain overseas markets.  The increase this year was mainly due to the addition of Bogs.  Bogs’ licensing revenues were $143,000 for the second quarter of 2011.

Earnings from Operations

North American wholesale segment earnings from operations in the second quarter were down $725,000 compared with last year’s second quarter.  For the six months ended June 30, North American wholesale segment earnings from operations were down approximately $1.5 million from last year.  The decreases reflect slightly lower gross earnings as a percent of net sales and increased selling and administrative expenses this year, which resulted from the inclusion of Bogs operations.  Bogs had an operating loss for the second quarter and the period from March 2 through June 30, 2011, as Bogs’ sales during the first and second quarters are typically low during this period due to seasonality, and most operating costs are fixed in nature.  In addition, the Company incurred transition costs associated with moving Bogs’ operations from Eugene, Oregon, and integrating them into its Glendale, Wisconsin facility.  This transition was completed by June 30 th , 2011.

Wholesale gross earnings were 30.1% of net sales in the second quarter of 2011 compared with 30.3% in last year’s second quarter.  For the six months ended June 30, wholesale gross earnings were 30.2% of net sales in 2011 compared with 30.6% in 2010.  The Company s products are manufactured mainly in China and India, and there continues to be pricing pressure out of those countries based on increased labor and material costs. Product cost out of China have also been increasing due to the strengthening of the renminbi relative to the U.S. dollar.  When possible, the Company has raised prices to maintain margins, but believes it will continue to incur increasing costs in the near future.

The Company’s cost of sales does not include distribution costs (e.g., receiving, inspection or warehousing costs).  Distribution costs were approximately $2.0 million for each of the three- month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  For each of the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, distribution costs were approximately $4.0 million, respectively.  These costs were included in selling and administrative expenses.  The Company’s gross earnings may not be comparable to other companies, as some companies may include distribution costs in cost of sales.

North American wholesale segment selling and administrative expenses include, and are primarily related to, distribution costs, salaries and commissions, advertising costs, employee benefit costs and depreciation.  As a percent of net sales, wholesale selling and administrative expenses this quarter were 29.1% compared with 26.6% in the same quarter last year.  For the six months ended June 30, wholesale selling and administrative expenses were 26.1% of net sales in 2011and 24.1% of net sales in 2010.  The percentage increase for both comparative periods was due to the inclusion of Bogs and slightly increased costs across several other categories.  The year to date increase also included $220,000 of Bogs transaction costs and first quarter Umi expenses this year.


North American Retail Segment

Net Sales

Second quarter net sales in the Company’s North American retail segment were up 11% compared with last year and up 8% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared with the same period last year.  There were four fewer stores at June 30, 2011 as compared with June 30, 2010.  Two retail stores closed during the second quarter of 2011, and the Company plans to close an additional store in the third quarter this year.  Same store sales were up 19% for the second quarter and up 14% for the first half of 2011.  The sales increases were primarily the result of higher volume in the majority of the Company’s retail locations and its Internet business.  The Company continues to evaluate its stores and the retail landscape on an on-going basis.

Earnings from Operations

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, retail earnings from operations improved $362,000 and $491,000, respectively, this year compared with the same periods last year.  The improvements for the quarter and year to date both resulted from increased sales and flat selling and administrative expenses.

Second quarter gross earnings as a percent of net retail sales were approximately level with the prior year at 64.0% this year and 64.1% for last year.  For the six months ended June 30, gross earnings as a percent of net retail sales were 63.9% for 2011 and 64.6% last year.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of sales were 60.5% in the current quarter and 67.2% in last year’s second quarter.  To date in 2011, selling and administrative expenses were 62.6% of net sales compared with 67.9% of net sales for the first half of 2010.  Selling and administrative expenses at the retail segment include, and are primarily related to, rent and occupancy costs, employee costs and depreciation.  The decreases this year in selling and administrative expense as a percent of sales resulted from the higher sales volumes and flat selling and administrative expenses, as many retail selling and administrative expenses are fixed in nature.

Other

The Company’s other net sales were up 39% for the quarter and 18% for the first half of the year compared to the same periods last year.  The majority of the Company’s other net sales are generated by Florsheim Australia.  For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, Florsheim Australia’s net sales were up 39% and 22%, respectively, this year compared to last year.  In local currency, net sales were up 16% and 6% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.  The quarter and year to date increases were achieved through higher sales in both its wholesale and retail businesses.  The additional increase in U.S. dollars for both periods was caused by the weaker U.S. dollar relative to the Australian dollar this year.  Florsheim Europe’s sales increased in the second quarter and first six months compared to last year due to higher wholesale shipments.

Collectively, other earnings from operations increased $1.4 million for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 compared with the prior year.  The increase in each period was primarily due to higher sales and gross earnings as a percent of sales at Florsheim Australia.


Other income and expense and taxes

Interest expense increased to $137,000 in the second quarter of 2011 from $87,000, and to $227,000 in the first six months of 2011 from $87,000, due to the additional short-term borrowings this year associated with the acquisition of Bogs.  See Note 2.  Other income and expense for the second quarter of 2011 was net income of $52,000 as compared to a net expense of $351,000 for the same period last year.  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, other income and expense was net income of $108,000 compared to a net expense of $218,000 last year.  The income this year for both periods primarily related to foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans denominated in U.S. dollars between the Company’s U.S. business and Florsheim Australia.  For the quarter, there were foreign currency transaction gains on these loans of $74,000 this year compared with losses of $348,000 in 2010.  Year to date, there were foreign currency transaction gains on these loans of $121,000 this year compared with losses of $213,000 last year.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 was 29.3%, as compared with 41.7% for the same period of 2010.  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the effective tax rate was 32.7% as compared with 36.1% for the same period of 2010.  The lower effective rates this year were due to a lower effective rate in the United States because of a greater percentage of municipal bond income relative to pretax earnings, and a lower tax rate on Florsheim Australia’s earnings, which comprised a greater share of total pretax earnings this year compared to last year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s primary source of liquidity is its cash, short-term marketable securities and its revolving line of credit.  During the first six months of 2011, the Company generated $14.9 million in cash from operating activities compared with $7.9 million last year.  This year the Company used cash of approximately $30.8 million for its acquisition of Bogs including $3.8 million to repay the debt assumed in the transaction.  The Company received net bank borrowings of approximately $31 million, mainly to fund the Bogs acquisition.  Capital expenditures were $3.1 million in the first half of 2011 compared with $646,000 last year.  The Company expects annual capital expenditures to be between $4.0 and $5.0 million for 2011.
The Company paid cash dividends of $3.6 million and $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company continues to repurchase its common stock under its share repurchase program when the Company believes market conditions are favorable.  During the first half of 2011, the Company repurchased 50,588 shares at a total cost of $1.2 million through its stock repurchase program and 400,319 shares at a total cost of $9.0 million in a private transaction.  The Company currently has 1,233,965 shares available under its previously announced buyback program.  See Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” below for more information.


At June 30, 2011, the Company had a $50.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit.  At the end of the second quarter, there was $25.0 million of non-rated commercial paper outstanding at an average interest rate of 1.44% plus an issuance fee of 25 basis points and $11.0 million of bank borrowings outstanding at an average interest rate of 1.9%.  The Company’s borrowing facility includes one financial covenant that specifies a minimum level of net worth.  The Company was in compliance with the covenant at June 30, 2011.  The facility expired on April 30, 2011, and was renewed for another term that expires April 30, 2012.  On July 22, 2011, the interest rate on bank borrowings was changed to LIBOR plus 75 basis points, which is currently 0.95%.

As part of the Bogs acquisition, the Company has recorded its preliminary fair value estimate of the contingent payments of $9.8 million within other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at June 30, 2011.  The initial fair value estimate of the contingent payments was based on a probability-weighted model, and is subject to change.  Any changes within the 12 months following the acquisition date that relate to factors that existed at the acquisition date will be reflected within the final valuation of the purchase price.  Any changes thereafter will be recognized in earnings.  A change in the fair value of the contingent payments could have a material effect on the Company’s earnings and financial position.

The Company will continue to evaluate the best uses for its available liquidity, including continued stock repurchases and additional acquisitions.

The Company believes that available cash and marketable securities, cash provided by operations, and available borrowing facilities will provide adequate support for the cash needs of the business.
