1. Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation — The consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. and its wholly owned or controlled subsidiaries (the “Company”) and have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). As applicable under such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted. We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2004.

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

     Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

     Stock Based Compensation — As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”), we account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB No. 25”). We have adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123 and continue to apply APB No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for the stock option plans and the employee stock purchase plan.

     In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS No. 148”). This statement amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The disclosures required by SFAS No. 148 are included below.

     Had we elected to apply the accounting standards of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, our net earnings and net earnings per share would have been approximately the pro forma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except per share data):

(Unaudited)

     Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — In September 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) of the FASB reached a consensus on Issue No. 04-8, “The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings per Share” (“EITF 04-8”), and the FASB ratified the consensus in October 2004. The EITF’s consensus states that shares of common stock contingently issuable pursuant to contingent convertible debt instruments should be included in diluted earnings per share computations, if dilutive, regardless of whether the contingent feature has been met. EITF 04-8 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2004 and must be applied retroactively. We are currently evaluating the provisions of EITF 04-8 relative to our $130.0 million 3.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (“Notes”) issued in October 2003. The Notes are contingently convertible into shares of common stock initially at a conversion rate of 23.3187 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes and may, at our option, be settled in cash or stock. If we choose to take such actions as are necessary to relinquish our option to settle the principal amount of the Notes in stock, and retain the option to settle any amounts in excess of the principal amount that might be due to the noteholders in cash or stock, our future diluted earnings per share computations would be affected only if the price of our common stock exceeded the conversion price specified in the Notes. See Note 6 for further information regarding the Notes.

     In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, “Inventory Costs — an Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS No. 151”). SFAS No. 151 amends ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, to clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current period charges. It also requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151 to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. Earnings per Share

     Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and net earnings. Diluted EPS gives effect to the potential dilution which would have occurred if additional shares were issued for stock options exercised under the treasury stock method, as well as the potential dilution that could occur if our contingent convertible debt were converted. No dilution from the contingent convertible debt has occurred. See Note 1 for discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements affecting diluted EPS computations.

3. Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging

     In connection with our direct sourcing program, we may enter into purchase commitments that are denominated in a foreign currency (primarily the Euro). Our policy is to enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to minimize foreign currency exposure related to forecasted purchases of certain inventories. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”), such contracts have been designated as and accounted for as cash flow hedges. The settlement terms of the forward contracts, including amount, currency and maturity, correspond with payment terms for the merchandise inventories. Any ineffective portion of a hedge is reported in earnings immediately. At October 30, 2004, we had 30 contracts maturing in varying increments to purchase an aggregate notional amount of $13.7 million in foreign currency, maturing at various dates through December 2005. During the first nine months of 2004, we recognized approximately $0.3 million of hedge ineffectiveness.

     The changes in the fair value of the foreign currency forward exchange contracts are matched to inventory purchases by period and are recognized in earnings as such inventory is sold. The fair value of the forward exchange contracts is estimated by comparing the cost of the foreign currency to be purchased under the contracts using the exchange rates obtained under the contracts (adjusted for forward points) to the hypothetical cost using the spot rate at quarter end. We expect to recognize in earnings through October 29, 2005 approximately $0.3 million, net of tax, of existing net gains presently deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income.

4. Comprehensive Income and Supplemental Cash Flows

     Our comprehensive income is as follows (in thousands):

     We paid cash during the first nine months of 2003 of $1.8 million for interest and $15.9 million for income taxes, compared with $4.3 million for interest and $36.0 million for income taxes during the first nine months of 2004. We had non-cash investing and financing activities resulting from the tax benefit recognized upon exercise of stock options of $1.2 million and $1.0 million for the first nine months of 2003 and 2004, respectively, and from the issuance of treasury stock to the employee stock ownership plan of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the first nine months of 2003 and 2004, respectively.

5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

     Changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill for the year ended January 31, 2004 and for the nine months ended October 30, 2004 are as follows (in thousands):

     In September 2004, we acquired the assets and operating leases for 11 retail dry cleaning and laundry facilities operating in the Houston, Texas area.

     The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of our other intangibles, which are included in other assets in the accompanying balance sheet, are as follows (in thousands):

THE MEN’S WEARHOUSE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(Unaudited)

     The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets totaled approximately $521,000 and $635,000 for the nine months ended November 1, 2003 and October 30, 2004, respectively, and approximately $737,000 for the year ended January 31, 2004. Pretax amortization associated with intangible assets at October 30, 2004 is estimated to be $221,000 for the remainder of fiscal year 2004, $886,000 for fiscal year 2005, $831,000 for fiscal year 2006 and $673,000 for each of the fiscal years 2007 and 2008.

6. Long-Term Debt

     In January 2003, we replaced an existing $125.0 million revolving credit facility which was scheduled to mature in February 2004 with a new revolving credit agreement with a group of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for borrowing of up to $100.0 million through February 4, 2006. In July 2004, we amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date to July 7, 2009. The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the stock of the subsidiaries of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. Advances under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, the agent’s prime rate or the reserve adjusted LIBOR rate plus a varying interest rate margin up to 2.25%. The Credit Agreement also provides for fees applicable to unused commitments ranging from 0.275% to 0.500%. As of October 30, 2004, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

     The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain a minimum level of net worth and certain financial ratios. The Credit Agreement also prohibits payment of cash dividends on our common stock. We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement as of October 30, 2004.

     In January 2003, we entered into a new Canadian term credit agreement under which we borrowed Can $62.0 million (US $40.7 million) which was used to repay approximately Can $60.9 million (US $40.0 million) in outstanding indebtedness of Moores under a previous term credit agreement. Advances under the Canadian term credit agreement incurred interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, the agent’s prime rate or the Canadian prime rate plus a varying interest rate margin up to 1.75%. On October 31, 2003, we repaid all the outstanding Canadian term credit agreement indebtedness of Can $60.5 million (US $45.9 million).

     On October 21, 2003, we issued $130.0 million of 3.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (“Notes”) in a private placement. A portion of the net proceeds from the Notes was used to repay the outstanding indebtedness under our Canadian term credit agreement and to repurchase shares of our common stock under the program authorized by the Board in September 2003; the balance is reserved for general corporate purposes, which may include additional purchases of our common stock under our share repurchase program. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2004. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2023. However, holders may require us to purchase all or part of the Notes, for cash, at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount per Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on October 15, 2008, October 15, 2013 and October 15, 2018 or upon a designated event. Beginning on October 15, 2008, we will pay additional contingent interest on the Notes if the average trading price of the Notes is above a specified level during a specified period. In addition, we may redeem all or a portion of the Notes on or after October 20, 2008, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest, contingent interest and additional amounts, if any. We also have the right to redeem the Notes between October 20, 2006 and October 19, 2008 if the price of our common stock reaches certain levels.

     During certain periods, the Notes are convertible by holders into shares of our common stock initially at a conversion rate of 23.3187 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $42.88 per share of common stock (subject to adjustment in certain events), under the following circumstances: (1) if the closing sale price of our common stock issuable upon conversion exceeds 120% of the conversion price under specified conditions; (2) if we call the Notes for redemption; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. Upon conversion of the Notes, in lieu of delivering common stock we may, at our election, deliver cash or a combination of cash and common stock. The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations, ranking on parity in right of payment with all our existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness and our other general unsecured obligations, and senior in right of payment

with all our future subordinated indebtedness. The Notes are effectively subordinated to all of our senior secured indebtedness and all indebtedness and liabilities of our subsidiaries.

     In December 2003, we acquired the assets and operating leases for 13 retail dry cleaning and laundry facilities and issued a note payable for $1.0 million as partial consideration. The unsecured note payable is due in full in 2008 and interest compounds annually at 4.0%.

     We utilize letters of credit primarily for inventory purchases. At October 30, 2004, letters of credit totaling approximately $11.8 million were issued and outstanding.

7. Share Repurchase Program

     In November 2002, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $25.0 million of Company stock in the open market or in private transactions. As of November 1, 2003, a total of 1,057,100 shares at a cost of $24.1 million were repurchased in open market transactions under this program at an average price per share of $22.80.

     In September 2003, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of Company common stock in the open market or in private transactions. This authorization superceded the approximately $1.0 million we had remaining under the November 2002 authorization. As of November 1, 2003, we had repurchased under this program 1,405,400 shares at a cost of $42.4 million in private transactions and 235,600 shares at a cost of $6.9 million in open market transactions. A total of 2,698,100 shares at a cost of $73.4 million were repurchased under all authorized stock repurchase programs during the first nine months of 2003 at an average price per share of $27.22. As of October 30, 2004, we had repurchased under the September 2003 program 1,405,400 shares at a cost of $42.4 million in private transactions and 2,036,400 shares at a cost of $51.4 million in open market transactions, for a total of 3,441,800 shares at an average price per share of $27.25.

     In June 2004, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of Company common stock in the open market or in private transactions. This authorization superceded the approximately $6.2 million we had remaining under the September 2003 authorization. As of October 30, 2004, a total of 99,400 shares at a cost of $2.5 million were repurchased in open market transactions under this program at an average price per share of $24.99.

     During the first nine months of 2004, a total of 422,400 shares at a cost of $11.2 million were repurchased in open market transactions under all authorized stock repurchase programs at an average price per share of $26.48.

8. Related Party Transactions

     On August 16, 2004, we purchased a store (land and building, which we had been leasing) in Dallas, Texas for $1.0 million from 8239 Preston Road, Inc., a Texas corporation of which George Zimmer, Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Company, James E. Zimmer, Senior Vice President of the Company, and Richard Goldman, a former officer and director of the Company, each owned 20% of the outstanding common stock, and Laurie Zimmer, sister of George and James E. Zimmer, owned 40% of the outstanding common stock.

     On August 20, 2004, we purchased a 1980 Gulfstream III aircraft from Regal Aviation L.L.C. (“Regal Aviation”) for $5.0 million. Regal Aviation operates a private air charter service and is a limited liability company of which George Zimmer owns 99%. In addition, on August 20, 2004, we entered into a leasing arrangement with Regal Aviation under which Regal Aviation will operate, manage and market the aircraft as well as provide the appropriate flight personnel and services. The aircraft will be utilized to provide air transportation from time to time for employees of the Company as well as be leased to third parties for charter.

     On October 15, 2004, we purchased a warehouse facility located in Houston, Texas (the “Facility”) from Zig Zag for $0.7 million. Zig Zag is a Texas joint venture, in which Richard E. Goldman, a former officer and director of the Company, George Zimmer, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and James E. Zimmer, Senior Vice President — Merchandising of the Company, were the sole and equal joint venturers. Prior to the purchase of the Facility, we leased the Facility from Zig Zag.

     Based on the results of recent appraisals and review of the terms of other Regal Aviation leasing arrangements with unrelated third parties, we believe that the terms of the aircraft purchase and leasing agreements and the terms of the store purchase and the Facility purchase are comparable to what would have been available to us from unaffiliated third parties at the time such agreements were entered into.

9. Legal Matters

     On April 18, 2003, a lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Orange, Case No. 03CC00132 (the “Orange County Suit”). The Orange County Suit was brought as a purported class action and alleges several causes of action, each based on the factual allegation that in the State of California the Company misclassified its managers and assistant managers as exempt from the application of certain California labor statutes. Because of this alleged misclassification, the Orange County Suit alleges that the Company failed to pay overtime compensation and provide the required rest periods to such employees. The Orange County Suit seeks, among other things, declaratory and injunctive relief along with an accounting as to alleged wages, premium pay, penalties, interest and restitution allegedly due the class defendants. We believe that the Orange County Suit will be resolved in 2005; however, no assurance can be given that the anticipated resolution will be realized. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of the Orange County Suit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     On April 1, 2004, a lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC313038 (the “PII Suit”). The PII Suit, which was brought as a purported class action, alleges two causes of action, each based on the factual allegation that the Company requests or requires, in conjunction with a customer’s use of his or her credit card, the customer to provide personal identification information which is recorded upon the credit card transaction form. The PII Suit seeks: (i) civil penalties pursuant to the California Civil Code; (ii) an order enjoining the Company from requesting or requiring that a customer provide personal identification information which is then recorded on the transaction form; (iii) permanent and preliminary injunctions against the Company requesting or requiring that a customer provide personal identification information which is then recorded on the transaction form; (iv) restitution of all funds allegedly acquired by means of any act or practice declared by the Court to be unlawful or fraudulent or to constitute a violation of the California Business and Professions Code; (v) attorney’s fees; and (vi) costs of suit. The Court has not yet decided whether the action may proceed as a class action. The court has determined that the claim for restitution may not proceed. The Company intends to vigorously defend the PII Suit. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of the PII Suit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     On June 24, 2004, the Company filed a lawsuit against Suits Warehouse Outlet Corp. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Civil Action No. CV-04-2625 (ADS), for trademark infringement. Suits Warehouse Outlet Corp. has counterclaimed against TMW Marketing Company, Inc., one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, to cancel the registration of the trademark “The Men’s Wearhouse” on the grounds of genericness of the mark and abandonment of the mark through failure to police the mark (the “Name Suit”). There are no monetary damages claimed, apart from attorney’s fees and costs. Damages would be the cancellation of the registration of the trademark. The Company believes the Name Suit lacks merit and intends to vigorously defend the Name Suit. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of the Name Suit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     In addition, we are involved in various routine legal proceedings, including ongoing litigation, incidental to the conduct of our business. Management believes that none of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

     For supplemental information, it is suggested that “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” be read in conjunction with the corresponding section included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2004. References herein to years are to our 52-week or 53-week fiscal year which ends on the Saturday nearest January 31 in the following calendar year. For example, references to “2004” mean the 52-week fiscal year ending January 29, 2005.

     The following table presents information with respect to retail apparel stores in operation during each of the respective fiscal periods:

     In connection with our strategy of testing opportunities to market complementary products and services, in December 2003 and in September 2004 we acquired the assets and operating leases for 13 and 11, respectively, retail dry cleaning and laundry facilities operating in the Houston, Texas area. We may open or acquire additional facilities on a limited basis as we test market and evaluate the feasibility of developing a national retail dry cleaning and laundry line of business. As of October 30, 2004, we had opened all six of our new casual clothing/sportswear concept stores which we were planning to open in 2004 in order to test an expanded, more fashion-oriented merchandise concept for men and women. These stores are approximately 3,000 to 3,500 square feet and are located in high-end regional malls. They target the 25 to 35 year old customer with Latin-inspired store designs and offerings.

Results of Operations

     Three Months Ended November 1, 2003 and October 30, 2004

     Our net sales were $357.8 million for the three months ended October 30, 2004, a $35.2 million or 10.9% increase from the same prior year quarter due mainly to a $23.6 million increase in clothing and alteration sales and a $8.6 million increase in tuxedo rental revenues. Our U.S. comparable store sales (which are calculated primarily by excluding the net sales of a store for any month of one period if the store was not open throughout the same month of the prior period) increased 6.1% as we experienced a strong response by customers to the initiation of our revamped and improved customer loyalty program at our traditional Men’s Wearhouse stores, continued growth in our tuxedo rental business and increased store traffic levels at our K&G stores primarily from extending our hours of operation from four days to seven days a week beginning September 1, 2004. In Canada, comparable store sales increased 9.7% as a result of improved unit suit sales as well as the rollout of the

11

tuxedo rental business to all Moores stores at the beginning of this fiscal year. Combined U.S. and Canadian tuxedo rental revenues increased from 4.3% of total revenues in the third quarter of 2003 to 6.3% of total revenues in the third quarter of 2004.

     Gross margin increased $20.9 million or 17.7% from the same prior year quarter to $139.4 million in the third quarter of 2004. As a percentage of sales, gross margin increased from 36.7% in the third quarter of 2003 to 39.0% in the third quarter of 2004. This increase in gross margin percentage resulted mainly from continued growth in our tuxedo rental business, which carries a significantly higher incremental gross margin impact than our clothing sales, and from higher cumulative mark-ups and lower markdowns that produced higher clothing product margins. The gross margin percentage was also increased as occupancy cost, which is relatively constant on a per store basis and includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, decreased modestly as a percentage of sales from the third quarter of 2003 to the third quarter of 2004. However, on an absolute dollar basis, occupancy costs increased by 7.2% from the third quarter of 2003 to the third quarter of 2004 due mainly to higher rent expense from our increased store count and renewals of existing leases at higher rates.

     Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 32.0% for the third quarter of 2003 and 33.0% for the third quarter of 2004, with SG&A expenditures increasing by $14.9 million or 14.4% to $118.2 million. As a percentage of sales, advertising expense decreased from 4.7% to 3.8% of net sales, store salaries increased from 12.8% to 13.1% of net sales and other SG&A expenses increased from 14.5% to 16.1% of net sales. On an absolute dollar basis, the principal components of SG&A expenses increased primarily due to (i) increased commissions due to higher sales, (ii) increased store salaries, benefits and other costs associated with store personnel additions for tuxedo rental operations, (iii) increased legal costs related to various matters being litigated, (iv) consulting costs associated with ongoing Sarbanes Oxley Section 404 compliance efforts and (v) recognition of a $2.2 million pretax impairment charge related to certain technology assets.

     Interest expense increased from $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2003 to $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2004 while interest income remained at $0.3 million. Weighted average borrowings outstanding increased from $61.8 million in the third quarter of 2003 to $131.0 million for the third quarter of 2004, and the weighted average interest rate on outstanding indebtedness decreased from 4.6% to 3.4%. The increase in the weighted average borrowings was due primarily to the issuance of $130.0 million of 3.125% Notes in a private placement on October 21, 2003. A portion of the proceeds from the Notes was used to repay the balance outstanding on our Canadian credit facility. The decrease in the weighted average interest rate was due primarily to the lower interest rate on the Notes. See further discussion of the Notes in Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” herein.

     Our effective income tax rate was 37.3% for the third quarter of 2003 and 2004, respectively. The effective tax rate was higher than the statutory U.S. federal rate of 35% primarily due to the effect of state income taxes.

     These factors resulted in net earnings of $12.6 million or 3.5% of net sales for the third quarter of 2004, compared with net earnings of $9.1 million or 2.8% of net sales for the third quarter of 2003.

     Nine Months Ended November 1, 2003 and October 30, 2004

     Our net sales were $1.088 billion for the nine months ended October 30, 2004, a $118.0 million or 12.2% increase from the same prior year period due mainly to a $87.8 million increase in clothing and alteration sales and a $23.6 million increase in tuxedo rental revenues. Our U.S. comparable store sales increased 8.3% due mainly to increased store traffic levels at our traditional Men’s Wearhouse stores and at our K&G stores where our hours of operation were extended from four days to seven days a week beginning September 1, 2004. At our traditional Men’s Wearhouse brand, a 7.5% increase in unit suit sales helped drive increases in other product categories, as well as an increase in alteration sales. In addition, our U.S. tuxedo rental business continued to grow with a 40.9% increase in tuxedo rental revenues. In Canada, comparable store sales increased 7.5% as a result of improved unit suit sales, a strong response by customers to Moores’ summer sale event which occurred during the second quarter and the rollout of the tuxedo rental business to all Moores stores at the beginning of this fiscal year. Combined U.S. and Canadian tuxedo rental revenues increased from 4.6% of total revenues in the first nine months of 2003 to 6.3% of total revenues in the first nine months of 2004.

     Gross margin increased $70.1 million or 19.9% over the same prior year period to $422.7 million for the first nine months of 2004. As a percentage of sales, gross margin increased from 36.4% for the first nine months of 2003 to 38.9% for the first

12

nine months of 2004. This increase in gross margin percentage resulted mainly from continued growth in our tuxedo rental business, which carries a significantly higher incremental gross margin impact than our clothing sales, and from higher cumulative mark-ups and lower markdowns that produced higher clothing product margins. The gross margin percentage was also increased as occupancy cost, which is relatively constant on a per store basis and includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, decreased modestly as a percentage of sales from the first nine months of 2003 to the first nine months of 2004. However, on an absolute dollar basis, occupancy costs increased by 6.2% from the first nine months of 2003 to the first nine months of 2004 due mainly to higher rent expense from our increased store count and renewals of existing leases at higher rates.

     SG&A expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 31.0% for the first nine months of 2003, compared to 31.8% for the first nine months of 2004, with SG&A expenditures increasing by $45.4 million or 15.1% to $346.3 million. As a percentage of sales, advertising expense decreased from 4.5% to 3.8% of net sales, store salaries increased from 12.3% to 12.8% of net sales and other SG&A expenses increased from 14.2% to 15.2% of net sales. On an absolute dollar basis, the principal components of SG&A expenses increased primarily due to (i) increased commissions due to higher sales, (ii) increased store salaries, benefits and other costs associated with store personnel additions for tuxedo rental operations, (iii) increased travel and training expenses related to incremental training for new and existing store personnel, (iv) increased legal costs related to various matters being litigated, (v) consulting costs associated with ongoing Sarbanes Oxley Section 404 compliance efforts and (vi) recognition of a $2.2 million pretax impairment charge related to certain technology assets. SG&A expenses were reduced in the first nine months of 2003 by the recognition of a $4.4 million deferred pretax gain from the sale in March 2002 of certain technology assets to an unrelated company regularly engaged in the development and licensing of software to the retail industry. However, most of the gain recognized was offset by $4.1 million in costs related to store closures and the write-off of certain technology assets.

     Interest expense increased from $2.5 million for the first nine months of 2003 to $4.2 million in the first nine months of 2004 while interest income remained at $1.0 million. Weighted average borrowings outstanding increased from $49.5 million in the prior year to $131.0 million for the first nine months of 2004, and the weighted average interest rate on outstanding indebtedness decreased from 5.4% to 3.4%. The increase in the weighted average borrowings was due primarily to the issuance of $130.0 million of 3.125% Notes in a private placement on October 21, 2003. A portion of the proceeds from the Notes was used to repay the balance outstanding on our Canadian credit facility. The decrease in the weighted average interest rate was due primarily to the lower interest rate on the Notes. See further discussion of the Notes in Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” herein.

     Our effective income tax rate was 37.3% for the first nine months of 2003 and 2004, respectively. The effective tax rate was higher than the statutory U.S. federal rate of 35% primarily due to the effect of state income taxes.

     These factors resulted in net earnings of $45.9 million or 4.2% of net sales for the first nine months of 2004, compared with net earnings of $31.5 million or 3.3% of net sales for the first nine months of 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     In January 2003, we replaced an existing $125.0 million revolving credit facility which was scheduled to mature in February 2004 with a new revolving credit agreement with a group of banks (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for borrowing of up to $100.0 million through February 4, 2006. In July 2004, we amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date to July 7, 2009. The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the stock of the subsidiaries of The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. Advances under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, the agent’s prime rate or the reserve adjusted LIBOR rate plus a varying interest rate margin up to 2.25%. The Credit Agreement also provides for fees applicable to unused commitments ranging from 0.275% to 0.500%. As of October 30, 2004, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

     The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive and financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain a minimum level of net worth and certain financial ratios. The Credit Agreement also prohibits payment of cash dividends on our common stock. We were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement as of October 30, 2004.

     In January 2003, we entered into a new Canadian term credit agreement under which we borrowed Can $62.0 million (US $40.7 million) which was used to repay approximately Can $60.9 million (US $40.0 million) in outstanding indebtedness of

13

Moores under a previous term credit agreement. Advances under the Canadian term credit agreement incurred interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, the agent’s prime rate or the Canadian prime rate plus a varying interest rate margin up to 1.75%. On October 31, 2003, we repaid all the outstanding Canadian term credit agreement indebtedness of Can $60.5 million (US $45.9 million).

     On October 21, 2003, we issued $130.0 million of 3.125% Notes in a private placement. A portion of the net proceeds from the Notes was used to repay the outstanding indebtedness under our Canadian term credit agreement and to repurchase shares of our common stock under the program authorized by the Board in September 2003 (see below); the balance is reserved for general corporate purposes, which may include additional purchases of our common stock under our share repurchase program. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2004. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2023. However, holders may require us to purchase all or part of the Notes, for cash, at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount per Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on October 15, 2008, October 15, 2013 and October 15, 2018 or upon a designated event. Beginning on October 15, 2008, we will pay additional contingent interest on the Notes if the average trading price of the Notes is above a specified level during a specified period. In addition, we may redeem all or a portion of the Notes on or after October 20, 2008, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest, contingent interest and additional amounts, if any. We also have the right to redeem the Notes between October 20, 2006 and October 19, 2008 if the price of our common stock reaches certain levels.

     During certain periods, the Notes are convertible by holders into shares of our common stock initially at a conversion rate of 23.3187 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $42.88 per share of common stock (subject to adjustment in certain events), under the following circumstances: (1) if the closing sale price of our common stock issuable upon conversion exceeds 120% of the conversion price under specified conditions; (2) if we call the Notes for redemption; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. Upon conversion of the Notes, in lieu of delivering common stock we may, at our election, deliver cash or a combination of cash and common stock. The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations, ranking on parity in right of payment with all our existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness and our other general unsecured obligations, and senior in right of payment with all our future subordinated indebtedness. The Notes are effectively subordinated to all of our senior secured indebtedness, and all indebtedness and liabilities of our subsidiaries.

     In December 2003, we acquired the assets and operating leases for 13 retail dry cleaning and laundry facilities and issued a note payable for $1.0 million as partial consideration. The unsecured note payable is due in full in 2008 and interest compounds annually at 4.0%.

     We utilize letters of credit primarily for inventory purchases. At October 30, 2004, letters of credit totaling approximately $11.8 million were issued and outstanding.

     Working capital was $374.9 million at October 30, 2004, which is up from $356.8 million at January 31, 2004 and slightly down from $379.8 million at November 1, 2003. Historically, our working capital has been at its lowest level in January and February and has increased through November as inventory buildup occurs in preparation for the fourth quarter selling season.

     Our operating activities provided net cash of $24.6 million during the first nine months of 2003, due to net earnings, adjusted for non-cash charges (including recognition of a deferred gain on a sale of assets and an impairment charge for certain technology assets) and a decrease in accounts receivable and increases in accounts payable, accrued expenses and income taxes payable, offset partially by increases in inventories and other assets. During the first nine months of 2004, our operating activities provided net cash of $32.9 million, due mainly to net earnings, adjusted for non-cash charges (including an impairment charge for certain technology assets), and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses offset partially by increases in inventories and other assets and a decrease in income taxes payable. Accounts receivable decreased in the first nine months of 2003 mainly due to collection of certain sales tax credits associated with our Canadian operations. Inventories and accounts payable increased in the first nine months of 2003 and 2004 mainly due to seasonal inventory buildup and the purchase of fabric used in the direct sourcing of inventory. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the first nine months of 2003 and 2004 were partially offset by payment of bonuses accrued at the end of the previous year and, in 2004, payment for treasury stock purchased as of the end of 2003. Other assets increased in the first nine months of 2003 and 2004 due mainly to purchases of tuxedo rental product. The 2004 decrease in income taxes payable was due primarily to the

14

payment of taxes accrued at the end of 2003. The payment of taxes has increased due to increased earnings and the timing of previous tax payments.

     Our investing activities used net cash of $34.2 million and $66.0 million for the first nine months of 2003 and 2004, respectively. Cash used in investing activities was primarily comprised of capital expenditures relating to stores opened, remodeled or relocated during the period or under construction at the end of the period, distribution facility additions and infrastructure technology investments. For the first nine months of 2004, our cash used by investing activities also included $11.0 million for net assets acquired relating to our acquisition in September 2004 of the assets and operating leases for 11 retail dry cleaning and laundry facilities operating in the Houston, Texas area.

     Our financing activities provided net cash of $15.7 million for the first nine months of 2003, due mainly to proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes and proceeds from the issuance of our common stock for options exercised, offset by purchases of treasury stock and the repayment of our Canadian term loan. In November 2002, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $25.0 million of Company stock in the open market or in private transactions. A total of 1,057,100 shares at a cost of $24.1 million were repurchased in open market transactions under this new program during the first nine months of 2003. In September 2003, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of Company common stock in the open market or in private transactions. This authorization superceded the approximately $1.0 million we had remaining under the November 2002 authorization. As of November 1, 2003, we had repurchased under this program 1,405,400 shares at a cost of $42.4 million in private transactions and 235,600 shares at a cost of $6.9 million in open market transactions. A total of 2,698,100 shares at a cost of $73.4 million were repurchased under all authorized stock repurchase programs during the first nine months of 2003 at an average price per share of $27.22. As of October 30, 2004, we had repurchased under the September 2003 program 1,405,400 shares at a cost of $42.4 million in private transactions and 2,036,400 shares at a cost of $51.4 million in open market transactions, for a total of 3,441,800 shares at an average price per share of $27.25.

     During the first nine months of 2004, our financing activities used net cash of $5.3 million due mainly to purchases of treasury stock offset by proceeds from the issuance of our common stock for options exercised. In June 2004, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of Company common stock in the open market or in private transactions. This authorization superceded the approximately $6.2 million we had remaining under the September 2003 authorization. As of October 30, 2004, a total of 99,400 shares at a cost of $2.5 million were repurchased in open market transactions under this program at an average price per share of $24.99. During the first nine months of 2004, a total of 422,400 shares at a cost of $11.2 million were repurchased in open market transactions under all authorized stock repurchase programs at an average price per share of $26.48.

     On August 16, 2004, we purchased a store (land and building, which we had been leasing) in Dallas, Texas for $1.0 million from 8239 Preston Road, Inc., a Texas corporation of which George Zimmer, Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Company, James E. Zimmer, Senior Vice President of the Company, and Richard Goldman, a former officer and director of the Company, each owned 20% of the outstanding common stock, and Laurie Zimmer, sister of George and James E. Zimmer, owned 40% of the outstanding common stock.

     On August 20, 2004, we purchased a 1980 Gulfstream III aircraft from Regal Aviation L.L.C. (“Regal Aviation”) for $5.0 million. Regal Aviation operates a private air charter service and is a limited liability company of which George Zimmer owns 99%. In addition, on August 20, 2004, we entered into a leasing arrangement with Regal Aviation under which Regal Aviation will operate, manage and market the aircraft as well as provide the appropriate flight personnel and services. The aircraft will be utilized to provide air transportation from time to time for employees of the Company as well as be leased to third parties for charter.

     On October 15, 2004, we purchased, a warehouse facility located in Houston, Texas (the “Facility”) from Zig Zag for $0.7 million. Zig Zag is a Texas joint venture, in which Richard E. Goldman, a former officer and director of the Company, George Zimmer, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and James E. Zimmer, Senior Vice President — Merchandising of the Company, were the sole and equal joint venturers. Prior to the purchase of the Facility, we leased the Facility from Zig Zag.

     Based on the results of recent appraisals and review of the terms of other Regal Aviation leasing arrangements with unrelated third parties, we believe that the terms of the aircraft purchase and leasing agreements and the terms of the store

15

purchase and the Facility purchase are comparable to what would have been available to us from unaffiliated third parties at the time such agreements were entered into.

     We anticipate that our existing cash and cash flow from operations, supplemented by borrowings under our Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to fund planned store openings, other capital expenditures and operating cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

     As substantially all of our cash is held by three financial institutions, we are exposed to risk of loss in the event of failure of any of these parties. However, due to the creditworthiness of these three financial institutions, we anticipate full performance and access to our deposits and liquid investments.

     In connection with our direct sourcing program, we may enter into purchase commitments that are denominated in a foreign currency (primarily the Euro). We generally enter into forward exchange contracts to reduce the risk of currency fluctuations related to such commitments. As these forward exchange contracts are with one financial institution, we are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by this party. However, due to the creditworthiness of this major financial institution, full performance is anticipated. We may also be exposed to market risk as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. This market risk should be substantially offset by changes in the valuation of the underlying transactions.

Forward-Looking Statements

     Certain statements made herein and in other public filings and releases by the Company contain “forward-looking” information (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that involves risk and uncertainty. These forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, future capital expenditures, acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), future sales, earnings, margins, costs, number and costs of store openings, demand for clothing, market trends in the retail clothing business, currency fluctuations, inflation and various economic and business trends. Forward-looking statements may be made by management orally or in writing, including, but not limited to, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section and other sections of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Securities Act of 1933.

     Actual results and trends in the future may differ materially depending on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, domestic and international economic activity and inflation, our successful execution of internal operating plans and new store and new market expansion plans, performance issues with key suppliers, severe weather, foreign currency fluctuations, government export and import policies and legal proceedings. Future results will also be dependent upon our ability to continue to identify and complete successful expansions and penetrations into existing and new markets and our ability to integrate such expansions with our existing operations.

     Expansion into more fashion-oriented merchandise categories or into complementary products and services may present greater risks. We are continuously assessing opportunities to expand complementary products and services related to our traditional business, such as corporate apparel sales and retail dry cleaning establishments, as well as concepts that include more fashion-oriented merchandise. We may expend both capital and personnel resources on such business opportunities which may or may not be successful.

     Our business is particularly sensitive to economic conditions and consumer confidence. Consumer confidence is often adversely impacted by many factors including local, regional or national economic conditions, continued threats of terrorism, acts of war and other uncertainties. We believe that a decrease in consumer spending will affect us more than other retailers because men’s discretionary spending for items like tailored apparel tends to slow faster than other retail purchases.

     According to industry sources, sales in the men’s tailored clothing market generally have declined over the past several years. We believe that this decline has been attributable primarily to: (1) men allocating less of their income to tailored clothing and (2) certain employers relaxing their dress codes. We believe that this decrease in sales has contributed, and may continue to contribute, to a consolidation among retailers of men’s tailored clothing. However, recent industry data as well as various industry observers indicate that the buying patterns are trending back to more suits and other tailored clothing. Despite the past overall decline, we have been able to increase our share of the men’s tailored clothing market; however, we may not be able to continue to expand our sales volume or maintain our profitability within our segment of the retailing industry.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     We are subject to exposure from fluctuations in U.S. dollar/Euro exchange rates. As further described in Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Information and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources”, we utilize foreign currency forward exchange contracts to limit exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. At October 30, 2004, we had 30 contracts maturing in varying increments to purchase an aggregate notional amount of $13.7 million in foreign currency, maturing at various dates through December 2005. At November 1, 2003, we had 29 contracts maturing in varying increments to purchase an aggregate notional amount of $20.9 million in foreign currency, maturing at various dates through January 2005. Unrealized pretax gains on these forward contracts totaled approximately $0.1 million at November 1, 2003 and approximately $.8 million at October 30, 2004, respectively. A hypothetical 10% change in applicable October 30, 2004 forward rates could increase or decrease the October 30, 2004 unrealized pretax gain by approximately $1.4 million related to these positions. However, it should be noted that any change in the value of these contracts, whether real or hypothetical, would be significantly offset by an inverse change in the value of the underlying hedged item.

     Moores conducts its business in Canadian dollars. The exchange rate between Canadian dollars and U.S. dollars has fluctuated historically. If the value of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar weakens, then the revenues and earnings of our Canadian operations will be reduced when they are translated to U.S. dollars. Also, the value of our Canadian net assets in U.S. dollars may decline.

ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

     The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended October 30, 2004. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended October 30, 2004 to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

     There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended October 30, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 — LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On April 18, 2003, a lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Orange, Case No. 03CC00132 (the “Orange County Suit”). The Orange County Suit was brought as a purported class action and alleges several causes of action, each based on the factual allegation that in the State of California the Company misclassified its managers and assistant managers as exempt from the application of certain California labor statutes. Because of this alleged misclassification, the Orange County Suit alleges that the Company failed to pay overtime compensation and provide the required rest periods to such employees. The Orange County Suit seeks, among other things, declaratory and injunctive relief along with an accounting as to alleged wages, premium pay, penalties, interest and restitution allegedly due the class defendants. We believe that the Orange County Suit will be resolved in 2005; however, no assurance can be given that the anticipated resolution will be realized. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of the Orange County Suit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     On April 1, 2004, a lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC313038 (the “PII Suit”). The PII Suit, which was brought as a purported class action, alleges two causes of action, each based on the factual allegation that the Company requests or requires, in conjunction with a customer’s use of his or her credit card, the customer to provide personal identification information which is recorded upon the credit card transaction form. The PII Suit seeks: (i) civil penalties pursuant to the California Civil Code; (ii) an order enjoining the Company from requesting or requiring that a customer provide personal identification information which is then recorded on the transaction form; (iii) permanent and preliminary injunctions against the Company requesting or requiring that a customer provide personal identification information which is then recorded on the transaction form; (iv) restitution of all funds allegedly acquired by means of any act or practice declared by the Court to be unlawful or fraudulent or to constitute a violation of the California Business and Professions Code; (v) attorney’s fees; and (vi) costs of suit. The court has not yet decided whether the action may proceed as a class action. The Court has determined that the claim for restitution may not proceed. The Company intends to vigorously defend the PII Suit. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of the PII Suit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     On June 24, 2004, the Company filed a lawsuit against Suits Warehouse Outlet Corp. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Civil Action No. CV-04-2625 (ADS), for trademark infringement. Suits Warehouse Outlet Corp. has counterclaimed against TMW Marketing Company, Inc., one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, to cancel the registration of the trademark “The Men’s Wearhouse” on the grounds of genericness of the mark and abandonment of the mark through failure to police the mark (the “Name Suit”). There are no monetary damages claimed, apart from attorney’s fees and costs. Damages would be the cancellation of the registration of the trademark. The Company believes the Name Suit lacks merit and intends to vigorously defend the Name Suit. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of the Name Suit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     In addition, we are involved in various routine legal proceedings, including ongoing litigation, incidental to the conduct of our business. Management believes that none of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
