The accompanying notes to consolidated condensed financial statements (unaudited) are an integral part of these financial statements.

NOTES:

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, may not necessarily be indicative of the results for the full year.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all related amendments, which were together codified into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606. This guidance was adopted using the modified retrospective method. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company did not restate prior period information for the effects of the new standard, nor did the Company adjust the opening balance of retained earnings to account for the implementation of the new requirements of this standard. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material effect on the results of operations in future periods. See Note 3.

The Company’s revenue contracts represent a single performance obligation to sell its products to its customers. Sales are recorded at the time control of the products is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the products. All revenue is recorded net of estimated allowances for returns and discounts; these revenue offsets are accrued at the time of the sale. Generally, payments from customers are received within 90 days following the sale. The Company’s contracts with customers do not have significant financing components or significant prepayments from customers, and there is no non-cash consideration. The Company does not have unbilled revenue, and there are no contract assets or contract liabilities.

Certain prior year amounts in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited) were reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net earnings or equity.

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

There were no anti-dilutive stock options for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2018, exclude anti-dilutive stock options totaling approximately 207,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $27.94. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2017, exclude anti-dilutive stock options totaling approximately 837,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $26.85. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2017, exclude anti-dilutive stock options totaling approximately 706,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $27.15.

As noted in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, all of the Company’s marketable securities are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized cost pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, as the Company has the intent and ability to hold all investments to maturity.

Below is a summary of the amortized cost and estimated market values of the Company’s marketable securities as of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017.

The unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities at June 30, 2018, and at December 31, 2017, were as follows:

The estimated market values provided are level 2 valuations as defined by Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). The Company reviewed its portfolio of investments as of June 30, 2018 and determined that no other-than-temporary market value impairment exists.

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets as recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets (Unaudited) consisted of the following:

The Company’s amortizable intangible assets as recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets (Unaudited) consisted of the following:

Amortization expense related to the intangible assets was approximately $58,000 in both the second quarters of 2018 and 2017. For the six months ended June 30, amortization expense related to the intangible assets was approximately $117,000 in both 2018 and in 2017. The amortizable intangible assets are included within other assets in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. (Unaudited).

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 the Company’s segments based on earnings from operations. Therefore, interest income or expense, other income or expense, and income taxes are not allocated to the segments. The “other” category in the tables 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, 2018 and 2017, was as follows:

The components of the Company’s net periodic pension cost were as follows:

The components of net periodic pension cost other than the service cost component are included in "other expense, net" in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income (Unaudited).

The Company made a $3.0 million pension contribution in the second quarter of 2018. No additional cash contributions are expected for the remainder of 2018.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized approximately $454,000 and $805,000, respectively, of compensation expense associated with stock option and restricted stock awards granted in years 2014 through 2017. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized approximately $410,000 and $779,000, respectively, of compensation expense associated with stock option and restricted stock awards granted in years 2013 through 2016.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018:

* The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding and exercisable stock options is defined as the difference between the market value of the Company's stock on June 29, 2018, the last trading day of the quarter, of $36.40 and the exercise price multiplied by the number of in-the-money outstanding and exercisable stock options.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option exercise activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

The following table summarizes the Company’s restricted stock award activity for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018:

* The aggregate intrinsic value of non-vested restricted stock was calculated using the market value of the Company's stock on June 29, 2018 of $36.40 multiplied by the number of non-vested restricted shares outstanding.

At June 30, 2018, the Company had a $60 million unsecured revolving line of credit with a bank expiring November 4, 2018. The line of credit bears interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 0.75%. At June 30, 2018, there were no amounts outstanding on the line of credit. There were also no amounts outstanding on the line of credit to date in 2018.

At June 30, 2018, the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, Florsheim Australia, had foreign exchange contracts outstanding to buy $2.5 million U.S. dollars at a price of approximately $3.1 million Australian dollars. Based on quarter-end exchange rates, there were no significant unrealized gains or losses on the outstanding contracts.

The Company determines the fair value of foreign exchange contracts based on the difference between the foreign currency contract rates and the widely available foreign currency rates as of the measurement date. The fair value measurements are based on observable market transactions, and thus represent a level 2 valuation as defined by ASC 820.

Comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, was as follows:

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss as recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets (Unaudited) were as follows:

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Second Quarter Highlights

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2018 were $60.9 million, up 6% compared to last year’s second quarter net sales of $57.5 million. Earnings from operations increased $57,000, or 3%, for the quarter, compared to the second quarter of 2017. Consolidated net earnings attributable to Weyco Group, Inc. rose 29% to $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2018, from $1.3 million in last year’s second quarter. Diluted earnings per share were $0.15 per share in the second quarter of 2018 and $0.12 per share in the second quarter of 2017.

The majority of the increase in consolidated net sales came from the Company’s wholesale segment. Wholesale net sales increased $3.3 million for the quarter, compared to the same period last year, due mainly to higher sales of the Florsheim brand.

Consolidated earnings from operations were up 3% for the quarter. While wholesale earnings from operations were up $450,000, due mainly to higher sales and gross margins, this increase was mostly offset by lower earnings from operations at Florsheim Australia, resulting mainly from lower sales.

Consolidated net earnings attributable to Weyco Group, Inc. and diluted earnings per share were up for the quarter. Net earnings were positively impacted by the lower U.S. federal tax rate of 21% effective January 1, 2018, versus 35% in 2017, resulting from the passing of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Year-to-Date Highlights

Consolidated net sales for the first half of 2018 were $130.4 million, up 3% from net sales of $126.6 million in the first half of 2017. Earnings from operations were $5.5 million in the first six months of 2018, up 3% compared to $5.3 million in the same period last year. Consolidated net earnings attributable to Weyco Group, Inc. were $4.6 million in the first six months of 2018, up 33% compared to $3.5 million in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share to date in 2018 were $0.44 per share, versus $0.33 per share in the same period of 2017.

The increase in consolidated net sales was due to higher sales in the wholesale segment. Wholesale net sales increased $4.3 million in the first six months of 2018, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to higher sales of the Florsheim brand.

The increase in consolidated earnings from operations was due to higher operating earnings in the wholesale and retail segments. Earnings from operations in the wholesale segment were up $675,000, due to higher sales and gross margins. Earnings from operations in the retail segment were up $201,000, due to the benefit of closing underperforming stores since last year, and from higher operating earnings of the Company’s internet businesses. These increases were largely offset by lower operating earnings at Florsheim Australia, resulting mainly from lower sales.

Financial Position Highlights

At June 30, 2018, cash and marketable securities totaled $50.2 million and there was no debt outstanding on the Company’s revolving line of credit. At December 31, 2017, cash and marketable securities totaled $47.1 million and there was no debt outstanding on the line of credit. During the first six months of 2018, the Company generated $14.0 million of cash from operations. The Company paid dividends of $6.9 million and spent $6.6 million on purchases of Company stock. The Company also had $491,000 of capital expenditures.

SEGMENT ANALYSIS

Net sales and earnings from operations for the Company’s segments in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, were as follows:

North American Wholesale Segment

Net Sales

Net sales in the Company’s North American wholesale segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, were as follows:

North American Wholesale Segment Net Sales

Net sales of the Florsheim brand were up for the quarter and year-to-date periods, driven by strong sales to national shoe chains and department stores. While Nunn Bush sales were up for the quarter, they were down for the first half of 2018, compared to the same period of 2017, reflecting reduced sales in the national shoe chain and department store trade channels. Other net sales decreased in 2018, due to a wind down of operations of the Umi brand.

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.

Earnings from Operations

Gross earnings for the North American wholesale segment were 33.3% of net sales in the second quarter of 2018, and 31.3% of net sales in last year’s second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, wholesale gross earnings were 33.2% of net sales in 2018, compared to 31.0% of net sales in 2017. Wholesale earnings from operations were $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, up 35% compared to $1.3 million in the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, earnings from operations for the wholesale segment were $5.1 million, up 15% from $4.5 million in the same period last year. The increases in wholesale earnings from operations for the quarter and year-to-date periods were primarily due to higher sales and gross margins.

The Company’s cost of sales does not include distribution costs (e.g., receiving, inspection, warehousing, shipping, and handling costs). Wholesale distribution costs were $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2018 versus $2.8 million for the same period of 2017. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, wholesale distribution costs were $6.2 million and $5.8 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. Wholesale selling and administrative expenses were $13.5 million, or 30% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2018, compared to $12.0 million, or 28% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2017. For the six months ended June 30, wholesale selling and administrative expenses were $27.8 million versus $25.0 million in 2017. As a percent of net sales, wholesale selling and administrative expenses were 28% of net sales in the first half of 2018, and 26% of net sales in the first half of 2017.

North American Retail Segment

Net Sales

Net sales in the Company’s retail segment were down 3% for the quarter and 1% for the first half of 2018, compared to the same periods last year. Same store sales, which include U.S. internet sales were up 2% for the quarter, and 4% for the first six months of 2018, compared to the same periods last year, primarily due to increased sales on the Company’s websites. There were two fewer domestic brick and mortar stores operating at June 30, 2018 than there were at June 30, 2017.

Earnings from Operations

North American retail segment gross earnings were 65.8% of net sales in the second quarter of 2018, up from 64.9% of net sales in last year’s second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, retail gross earnings were 65.2% of net sales in 2018, compared to 64.7% of net sales in 2017.

Earnings from operations in the North American retail segment improved $38,000 for the quarter, or 21%, compared to the second quarter of 2017, mainly due to the benefit of closing unprofitable stores since last year. For the year-to-date period, retail earnings from operations were up $201,000 in 2018, compared to the first half of 2017, partially due to the benefit of closing unprofitable stores. In addition, the Company’s internet businesses had higher operating earnings this year, as a result of higher sales volumes. Selling and administrative expenses for the retail segment include, and are primarily related to, rent and occupancy costs, employee costs, advertising expense and freight. Retail selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales were flat at 61% for the three-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. For the six months ended June 30, retail selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales were 61% in 2018 and 62% in 2017.

Other

The Company’s other net sales were $10.6 million in the second quarter of 2018, up 2% compared to $10.4 million in 2017. This increase was due to higher net sales at Florsheim Europe, partially offset by lower net sales at Florsheim Australia. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, other net sales were $21.4 million, down 1% from $21.7 million in the same period last year, mainly due to lower net sales at Florsheim Australia. Florsheim Australia’s net sales were down 2% and 4% for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, due to lower sales in both its retail and wholesale businesses. Sales in the Australian and Pacific Rim markets have been declining, as these businesses are facing similar challenges at retail that the Company has experienced in the U.S.

Collectively, Florsheim Australia and Florsheim Europe had operating losses of $23,000 in the second quarter of 2018, compared to operating earnings of $407,000 in the second quarter of 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, Florsheim Australia and Florsheim Europe had operating losses totaling $53,000, compared to operating earnings of $658,000 in the same period last year. The earnings decline for the quarter and first half of 2018 was mainly due to lower operating earnings in Florsheim Australia’s wholesale and retail businesses, resulting from lower sales.

Other income and expense

Interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, rose $54,000 and $108,000, respectively, due mainly due to additional interest earned on higher cash balances this year. The Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter was 24.8%, compared to 36.0% for the same period of 2017. For the six months ended June 30, the Company’s effective tax rate was 25.0% in 2018 versus 38.2% in 2017. This year’s effective tax rate was down due to the lower U.S. federal tax rate of 21% effective January 1, 2018, versus 35% in 2017, which resulted from the passing of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are its cash, short-term marketable securities and its revolving line of credit. The Company generated $14.0 million of cash from operating activities during the first six months of 2018, compared to $20.7 million in the same period of 2017. The decrease between years was primarily due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, principally inventory.

The Company paid cash dividends of $6.9 million and $6.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, 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 2018, the Company repurchased 199,500 shares at a total cost of $6.6 million. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately 817,000 shares available under its previously announced stock repurchase program. See Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” below for more information.

Capital expenditures were $491,000 in the first six months of 2018. Management estimates that annual capital expenditures for 2018 will be between $1.5 million and $2.5 million.

At June 30, 2018, the Company had a $60 million unsecured revolving line of credit with a bank expiring November 4, 2018. The line of credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.75%. There were no amounts outstanding on the line of credit during the first half of 2018.

At June 30, 2018, approximately $1.6 million of cash and cash equivalents was held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.

On July 31, 2018, David Venner, Director of Seraneuse Pty Ltd (“Seraneuse”), the minority interest shareholder of Florsheim Australia Pty Ltd, provided notice that Seraneuse will tender its shares, representing 45% equity in Florsheim Australia, to the Company, in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement dated January 23, 2009. Accordingly, the Company will purchase the minority interest of Florsheim Australia for $3.8 million on August 30, 2018.

The Company will continue to evaluate the best uses for its available liquidity, including, among other uses, capital expenditures, 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 for at least one year, although there can be no assurances.
