REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Quiksilver, Inc.:
Quiksilver, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets of Quiksilver, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of October 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended October 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility
of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2009 and 2008,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 31,
2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 12 to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for income tax uncertainties during the year ended October
31, 2008 as a result of adopting Accounting Standards Codification 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted guidance requiring retrospective
application relating to non-controlling interests during the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Companys internal control over financial
reporting as of October 31, 2009, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated January 12,
2010 (not presented herein) expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years Ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007
Years Ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007
Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies
Company Business
Quiksilver, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) design, produce and distribute branded
apparel, footwear, accessories and related products. The Companys apparel and footwear brands
represent a casual lifestyle for young-minded people that connect with its boardriding culture and
heritage. The Companys Quiksilver, Roxy, DC and Hawk brands are synonymous with the heritage and
culture of surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding, and its beach and water oriented swimwear
brands include Raisins, Radio Fiji and Leilani. The Company makes snowboarding equipment under its
DC, Roxy, Lib Technologies, Gnu and Bent Metal labels. The Companys products are sold in over 90
countries in a wide range of distribution channels, including surf shops, skateboard shops,
snowboard shops, its proprietary concept stores, other specialty stores and select department
stores. Distribution is primarily in the United States, Europe and Australia.
In November 2008, the Company sold its Rossignol business, including the related brands of
Rossignol, Dynastar, Look and Lange, and in December 2007, the Company sold its golf equipment
business. As a result, the Company has classified its Rossignol wintersports and golf equipment
businesses as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
The Company is highly leveraged; however, management believes that its cash flow from operations,
together with its existing credit facilities and term loans will be adequate to fund the Companys
capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. During fiscal 2009, the Company closed a
$153.1 million five year senior secured term loan, refinanced its existing asset-based credit
facility with a new $200 million three year asset-based credit facility for its Americas segment,
and refinanced its short-term uncommitted lines of credit in Europe with a new 268 million
multi-year facility. The closing of these transactions enabled the Company to extend a significant
portion of its short-term maturities to a long-term basis. The Company also believes that its
short-term uncommitted lines of credit in Asia/Pacific will continue to be made available. If
these lines of credit are not made available, then the Company could be adversely affected.
Adjustment for Retrospective Application of New Accounting Standard Adopted
At the beginning of fiscal 2010, the Company adopted new accounting guidance related to the
presentation of non-controlling interests, which required retrospective application. The financial
statements and accompanying notes presented in this report have been adjusted for the retrospective
application of this new accounting standard.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Quiksilver, Inc. and
subsidiaries, including Pilot, SAS and subsidiaries (Quiksilver Europe) and Quiksilver Australia
Pty Ltd. and subsidiaries (Quiksilver Asia/Pacific and Quiksilver International). Intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Cash Equivalents
Certificates of deposit and highly liquid short-term investments purchased with original maturities
of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Carrying values approximate fair value.
6
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Management regularly
reviews the inventory quantities on hand and adjusts inventory values for excess and obsolete
inventory based primarily on estimated forecasts of product demand and market value.
Fixed Assets
Furniture and other equipment, computer equipment, manufacturing equipment and buildings are
recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which
generally range from two to twenty years. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and
amortized over their estimated useful lives or related lease term, whichever is shorter. Land use
rights for certain leased retail locations are amortized to estimated residual value.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with ASC
360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. In accordance with ASC 360, management assesses potential
impairments of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an
assets carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying
value exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to result from the use and eventual
disposition of the asset. The Company recorded approximately $10.7 million, $10.4 million and zero
in fixed asset impairments in continuing operations as of October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles -
Goodwill and Other. Under ASC 350, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not
amortized but are tested for impairment annually and also in the event of an impairment indicator.
The annual impairment test is a fair value test as prescribed by ASC 350 which includes assumptions
such as growth and discount rates. The Company determined that there was no impairment loss in
continuing operations as of October 31, 2009, recorded approximately $55.4 million in goodwill
impairment in continuing operations as of October 31, 2008, and had previously determined that
there was no impairment loss in continuing operations as of October 31, 2007.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized upon the transfer of title and risk of ownership to customers. Allowances
for estimated returns and doubtful accounts are provided when revenues are recorded. Returns and
allowances are reported as reductions in revenues, whereas allowances for bad debts are reported as
a component of selling, general and administrative expense. Royalty income is recorded as earned.
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require
collateral.
Revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations include the following:

Promotion and Advertising
The Companys promotion and advertising efforts include athlete sponsorships, world-class
boardriding contests, websites, magazine advertisements, retail signage, television programs,
co-branded products, surf camps, skate park tours and other events. For the fiscal years ended
October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, these expenses totaled $101.8 million, $122.1 million and $102.9
million, respectively. Advertising costs are expensed when incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach as promulgated by the
authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 740 Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and the
tax bases of the Companys assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such
assets or liabilities are realized or settled. Deferred income tax assets are reduced by a
valuation allowance if, in the judgment of the Companys management, it is more likely than not
that such assets will not be realized.
On November 1, 2007, the Company adopted the authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 740
Income Taxes. This guidance clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized
in the financial statements. This guidance provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax
position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon
examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the
technical merits of the tax position. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related
to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its provision for income taxes.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payments net of an estimated
forfeiture rate and only recognizes compensation cost for those shares expected to vest using the
graded vested method over the requisite service period of the award. For option valuation, the
Company determines the fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which requires the
input of certain assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based payment awards, stock
price volatility and interest rates.
Net (Loss) Income per Share
The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS). Basic EPS is based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted EPS additionally
includes the dilutive effect of the Companys outstanding stock options, warrants and shares of
restricted stock computed using the treasury stock method. For the year ended October 31, 2009,
the weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, does not include 1,048,000 of
dilutive stock options and shares of restricted stock as the effect is anti-dilutive. For the
years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, the weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming
dilution, includes 3,510,000 and 5,936,000 shares, respectively, of dilutive stock options and
restricted stock. For the years ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, additional option shares
outstanding of 14,861,000, 12,392,000 and 11,375,000, respectively, and warrant shares outstanding
of 25,654,000, zero and zero, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS, as
their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Foreign Currency and Derivatives
The Companys reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, while Quiksilver Europes functional
currencies are primarily the euro and the British pound, and Quiksilver Asia/Pacifics functional
currencies are primarily the Australian dollar and the Japanese yen. Assets and liabilities of the
Company denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange on the balance
sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate for the period.
8
Derivative financial instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance
sheet and are measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative
depends on the use and type of the derivative. The Companys derivative financial instruments
principally consist of foreign
currency exchange contracts and interest rate swaps, which the Company uses to manage its exposure
to the risk of foreign currency exchange rates and variable interest rates. The Companys
objectives are to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in
foreign currency exchange and interest rates. The Company does not enter into derivative financial
instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss or income includes all changes in stockholders equity except those resulting
from investments by, and distributions to, stockholders. Accordingly, the Companys Consolidated
Statements of Comprehensive Loss include its net loss and the foreign currency adjustments that
arise from the translation of the financial statements of Quiksilver Europe, Quiksilver
Asia/Pacific and the foreign entities within the Americas segment into U.S. dollars and fair value
gains and losses on certain derivative instruments.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Companys trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates its
fair value due to their short-term nature.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated all subsequent events through the time that it filed its consolidated
financial statements in this Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 12,
2010.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued the Accounting
Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 105 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which
establishes the Accounting Standards Codification as the single source of authoritative accounting
principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of
financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities
and Exchange Commission under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of
authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The subsequent issuances of new standards will be in the
form of Accounting Standards Updates that will be included in the codification. This guidance is
effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15,
2009. The Company updated its historical U.S. GAAP references to comply with the codification
effective at the beginning of its fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2009. The adoption of this
guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results
of operations or cash flows, since the codification is not intended to change U.S. GAAP.
In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 820 Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of its
fiscal year ending October 31, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect
on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See note 15
for certain required disclosures related to this guidance.
9
In February 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 825
Financial Instruments, which permits companies to choose to measure certain financial instruments
and other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. This
guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of its fiscal year ending October 31,
2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows, since the Company did not elect the fair
value option for any assets or liabilities.
In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 805
Business Combinations, which requires the Company to record fair value estimates of contingent
consideration and certain other potential liabilities during the original purchase price
allocation, expense acquisition costs as incurred and does not permit certain restructuring
activities to be recorded as a component of purchase accounting. In April 2009, the FASB issued
additional guidance that requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination
that arise from contingencies be recognized at fair value, only if fair value can be reasonably
estimated and eliminates the requirement to disclose an estimate of the range of outcomes of
recognized contingencies at the acquisition date. This guidance is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will adopt
this guidance at the beginning of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2010 for all prospective
business acquisitions. The Company has not determined the effect that the adoption of this
guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements, but the impact will be limited to any
future acquisitions beginning in fiscal 2010, except for certain tax treatment of previous
acquisitions.
In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 810
Consolidation, which requires noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries to be included in the
equity section of the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company will adopt this guidance at the
beginning of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2010. In the year of adoption, presentation and
disclosure requirements apply retrospectively to all periods presented. These presentation and disclosure
requirements resulted in the reclassification of minority interest liability to equity on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets and the movement of minority interest expense to a separate line after net loss
on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Other than these presentation and disclosure changes,
the adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
In March 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 815
Derivatives and Hedging, which requires enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better
understand how and why derivatives are used and their effects on an entitys financial position,
financial performance and cash flows. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted this
guidance at the beginning of its fiscal quarter ending April 30, 2009. The adoption of this
guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results
of operations or cash flows. See note 15 for certain required disclosures related to this
guidance.
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 825 Financial
Instruments, which enhances consistency in financial reporting by increasing the frequency of fair
value disclosures. This guidance is effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009 and
the Company adopted this guidance during the three months ending July 31, 2009. The adoption of
this guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows. See note 15 for certain required disclosures related to this
guidance.
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance included in ASC Subtopic 855 Subsequent
Events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur
after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be
issued. Specifically, this guidance provides (i) the period after the balance sheet date during
which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for
potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; (ii) the circumstances under which
an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its
financial statements; and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or
transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This guidance is effective for interim or
annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009, and is
10
to be applied prospectively. The Company adopted this guidance as of July 31, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a
material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows. See section above, entitled Subsequent Events, for certain required disclosures related
to this guidance.

Note 2 Business Acquisitions
The Company did not engage in any business acquisitions, nor pay cash related to any prior business
acquisitions, during the year ended October 31, 2009. For the years ended October 31, 2008 and
2007, the Company paid cash of approximately $31.1 million and $41.3 million respectively, in
connection with certain business acquisitions, of which $19.2 million and $20.2 million for those
same years relates to payments to the former owners of DC Shoes, Inc. in connection with the
achievement of certain sales and earnings targets. The remaining $11.9 million and $21.1 million
for the years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007 relate primarily to insignificant acquisitions of
certain distributors, licensees and retail store locations.
Effective June 1, 2008, the Company acquired an additional 29% of Quiksilver Brazil for an
aggregate purchase price of approximately $7.7 million, which included 300,180 shares of its common
stock and approximately $3.9 million in cash. As a result of this transaction, the Company
increased its ownership in Quiksilver Brazil to 51%.
Note 3 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

During the three months ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded approximately $10.7
million and $10.4 million, respectively, in fixed asset impairments in continuing operations,
primarily related to impairment of leasehold improvements on certain underperforming U.S. retail
stores. These stores were not generating positive cash flows and are not expected to become
profitable in the future. As a result, the Company is working to close these stores as soon as
possible. Any charges associated with future rent commitments will be charged to future earnings
upon store closure.

As of October 31, 2008 and in connection with its annual goodwill impairment test, the Company
remeasured the value of its intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles Goodwill
and Other, and noted that the carrying value of assets of its Asia/Pacific segment were in excess
of their estimated fair value. As a result, the Company recorded related goodwill impairment
charges of approximately $55.4 million during the three months ended October 31, 2008. The fair
value of assets was estimated using a combination of a discounted cash flow and market approach.
The value implied by the test was affected by (1) reduced future cash flows expected for the
Asia/Pacific segment, (2) the discount rates which were applied to future cash flows, and (3)
current market estimates of value. The discount rates applied and current estimates of market
values were affected by macro-economic conditions, contributing to the estimated decline in value.
Goodwill in the Asia/Pacific segment arose primarily from the acquisition of the Companys
Australian and Japanese distributors in fiscal 2003, including subsequent earnout payments to the
former owners of these businesses, and the acquisition of certain Australian retail store locations
in fiscal 2005. For the years ended October 31, 2009 and 2007, there were no impairment charges
resulting from the Companys annual impairment test.
The change in non-amortizable trademarks is due primarily to foreign currency exchange
fluctuations. Other amortizable intangibles primarily include non-compete agreements, patents and
customer relationships. These amortizable intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over
their estimated
13
useful lives. Certain trademarks and licenses will continue to be amortized using estimated useful lives of
10 to 25 years with no residual values. Intangible amortization expense for the fiscal years ended
October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $3.2 million, $2.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively.
Annual amortization expense, based on the Companys amortizable intangible assets as of October 31,
2009, is estimated to be approximately $3.2 million in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2010,
approximately $3.0 million in each of the fiscal years ending October 31, 2011 through October 31,
2013 and approximately $2.0 million in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2014.
Goodwill arose primarily from the acquisitions of Quiksilver Europe, Quiksilver Asia/Pacific and DC
Shoes, Inc. Goodwill increased approximately $34.4 million during the fiscal year ended October
31, 2009, which was due to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Goodwill
decreased $99.5 million during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, which included a $55.4
million goodwill impairment in the Asia/Pacific segment. The remaining decrease was primarily due
to $49.4 million related to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which was
partially offset by an increase to goodwill of approximately $5.3 million related to other
insignificant acquisitions.

In July 2005, the Company issued $400 million in senior notes (Senior Notes), which bear a coupon
interest rate of 6.875% and are due April 15, 2015. The Senior Notes were issued at par value and
sold in accordance with Rule 144A and Regulation S. In December 2005, these Senior Notes were
exchanged for publicly registered notes with identical terms. The Senior Notes are guaranteed on a
senior unsecured basis by each of the Companys domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any of its
indebtedness or its subsidiaries indebtedness, or are obligors under its existing senior secured
credit facility (the Guarantors). The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes after
April 15, 2010 at fixed redemption prices as set forth in the indenture related to such Senior
Notes.
The Senior Notes indenture includes covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its
restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: incur additional debt; pay dividends on their
capital stock or repurchase their capital stock; make certain investments; enter into certain types
of transactions with affiliates; limit dividends or other payments to the Company; use assets as
security in other transactions; and sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies. If
the Company experiences a change of control (as defined in the indenture), it will be required to
offer to purchase the Senior Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount, plus
accrued and unpaid interest. The Company is currently in compliance with these covenants. In
addition, the Company has approximately $7.1 million in unamortized debt issuance costs related to
the Senior Notes included in other assets as of October 31, 2009.
On July 31, 2009, the Company entered into a $153.1 million five year senior secured term loan with
funds affiliated with Rhône Capital LLC. In connection with the term loan, the Company issued
warrants to purchase approximately 25.7 million shares of its common stock, representing 19.99% of
the
14
outstanding equity of the Company at the time, with an exercise price of $1.86 per share. The
warrants are fully vested and have a seven year term. The estimated fair value of these warrants
at issuance was $23.6 million. This amount was recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized into interest expense
over the term of the loan. In addition to this, the Company incurred approximately $15.8 million
in debt issuance costs which are classified in prepaid expenses (short-term) and other assets
(long-term) and are being amortized into interest expense over the five year term of the loan. The
term loan is primarily secured by certain of the Companys trademarks in the Americas and a first
or second priority interest in substantially all property related to the Companys Americas
business. The term loan bears an interest rate of 15% on a $125 million tranche, with 6% of that
interest payable in kind or in cash, at the Companys option. The remaining tranche is denominated
in euros (20 million) and also bears an interest rate of 15%, with the full 15% payable in kind or
cash at the Companys option. The gross outstanding balance of the term loan at October 31, 2009
was $158.7 million, while the balance net of the debt discount and included on the balance sheet
was $135.7 million. Net proceeds from the new term loan were used to reduce other borrowings and
increase cash reserves. The term loan contains customary restrictive covenants and default
provisions for loans of its type. The Company is currently in compliance with such covenants.
On July 31, 2009, the Company also entered into a new $200 million three year asset-based credit
facility for its Americas segment (with the option to expand the facility to $250.0 million on
certain conditions) which replaced its existing credit facility which was to expire in April 2010
(Credit Facility). The new Credit Facility, which expires in July 2012, includes a $100 million
sublimit for letters of credit and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 4.0% to 4.5%,
depending upon availability. In connection with obtaining the Credit Facility, the Company
incurred approximately $9.1 million in debt issuance costs which are classified in prepaid expenses
(short-term) and other assets (long-term) and are being amortized into interest expense over the
term of the Credit Facility. As of October 31, 2009, there were no borrowings outstanding under
the Credit Facility, other than outstanding letters of credit, which totaled $34.7 million.
The Credit Facility is guaranteed by Quiksilver, Inc. and certain of its domestic and Canadian
subsidiaries. The Credit Facility is secured by the Companys U.S. and Canadian accounts
receivable, inventory, certain intangibles, a second priority interest in substantially all other
personal property and a second priority pledge of shares of certain of the Companys domestic
subsidiaries. The borrowing base is limited to certain percentages of eligible accounts receivable
and inventory from participating subsidiaries. The Credit Facility contains customary default
provisions and restrictive covenants for facilities of its type. The Company is currently in
compliance with such covenants.
On July 31, 2009, the Company and certain of its European subsidiaries entered into a commitment
with a group of lenders in Europe to refinance its European indebtedness. This refinancing, which
closed and was funded on September 29, 2009, consists of two term loans totaling approximately
$251.7 million (170 million), an $85.9 million (58 million) credit facility and a line of credit
of $59.2 million (40 million) for issuances of letters of credit. Together, these are referred to
as the European Facilities. The maturity of these European Facilities is July 31, 2013. The
term loans have minimum principal repayments due on January 31 and July 31 of each year, with 14.0
million due for each semi-annual payment in 2010, 17.0 million due for each semi-annual payment in
2011 and 27.0 million due for each semi-annual payment in 2012 and 2013. Amounts outstanding
under the European Facilities bear interest at a rate of Euribor plus a margin of between 4.25% and
4.75%. The weighted average borrowing rate on the European Facilities was 5.09% as of October 31,
2009. In connection with obtaining the European Facilities, the Company incurred approximately
$19.3 million in debt issuance costs which are classified in prepaid expenses (short-term) and
other assets (long-term) and are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the
European Facilities. As of October 31, 2009, there were borrowings of approximately $251.7 million
outstanding on the two term loans, approximately $37.0 million outstanding on the credit facility,
and approximately $26.6 million of outstanding letters of credit.
The European Facilities are guaranteed by Quiksilver, Inc. and secured by pledges of certain assets
of its European subsidiaries, including certain trademarks of its European business and shares of
certain
15
European subsidiaries. The European Facilities contain customary default provisions and
covenants for transactions of this type. The Company is currently in compliance with such
covenants.
In connection with the closing of the European Facilities, the Company refinanced an additional
European term loan of $74.0 million (50 million) such that its maturity date aligns with the
European Facilities. This term loan has principal repayments due on January 31 and July 31 of each
year, with 8.9 million due in the aggregate in 2011, 12.6 million due in the aggregate in 2012
and 28.5 million due in the aggregate in 2013. This extended term loan currently bears an
interest rate of 3.23%, but will change to a variable rate of Euribor plus a margin of 4.8%
beginning in July 2010. This term loan has the same security as the European Facilities and it
contains customary default provisions and covenants for loans of its type. The Company is
currently in compliance with such covenants.
In August 2008, Quiksilver Europe entered into a $148.0 million (100 million) secured financing
facility which expires in August 2011. Under this facility, Quiksilver Europe may borrow up to
100.0 million based upon the amount of accounts receivable that are pledged to the lender to
secure the debt. Outstanding borrowings under this facility accrue interest at a rate of Euribor
plus a margin of 0.55% (currently 1.34%). As of October 31, 2009, the Company had approximately
$38.2 million of borrowings outstanding under this facility. This facility contains customary
default provisions and covenants for facilities of its type. The Company is currently in
compliance with such covenants.
Quiksilver Asia/Pacific has uncommitted revolving lines of credit with banks that provide up to
$45.8 million ($50.3 million Australian dollars) for cash borrowings and letters of credit. These
lines of credit are generally payable on demand, although the Company believes these lines of
credit will continue to be available. The amount outstanding on these lines of credit at October
31, 2009 was $32.6 million, in addition to outstanding letters of credit of $3.4 million, at an
average borrowing rate of 2.2%.
The Companys current credit facilities allow for total maximum cash borrowings and letters of
credit of $357.7 million. The Companys total maximum borrowings and actual availability fluctuate
depending on the extent of assets comprising the Companys borrowing base under certain credit
facilities. The Company had $107.8 million of borrowings drawn on these credit facilities as of
October 31, 2009, and letters of credit issued at that time totaled $64.8 million. The amount of
availability for borrowings under these facilities as of October 31, 2009 was $142.7 million, all
of which was committed. Of this $142.7 million in committed capacity, $93.8 million can also be
used for letters of credit. In addition to the $142.7 million of availability for borrowings, the
Company also had $42.4 million in additional capacity for letters of credit in Europe and
Asia/Pacific as of October 31, 2009.
In connection with the acquisition of Rossignol, the Company deferred payment of a portion of the
purchase price. This deferred purchase price obligation is expected to be paid in 2010 and accrues
interest equal to the 3-month Euribor plus 2.35% (3.14% as of October 31, 2009) and is denominated
in euros. The carrying amount of the obligation fluctuates based on changes in the foreign
currency exchange rate between euros and U.S. dollars. The Company has a cash collateralized
guaranty to the former owner of Rossignol of $52.7 million. The cash related to this guaranty is
classified as restricted cash on the balance sheet as of October 31, 2009. As of October 31, 2009,
the deferred purchase price obligation totaled $49.1 million.
The Company also has approximately $20.9 million in capital leases and other borrowings as of
October 31, 2009.

Under the Companys current sponsorship agreement with Kelly Slater, in addition to the cash
payment obligations included in the above table, the Company has agreed to propose to its
shareholders a grant to Mr. Slater of 3 million shares of restricted stock. This restricted stock
grant is subject to shareholder approval and would vest over a four year period. Should the grant
not be approved by the Companys shareholders, the Company may be required to compensate Mr. Slater
with additional cash payments, which are not included in the table above.
Litigation
The Company is involved from time to time in legal claims involving trademark and intellectual
property, licensing, employee relations and other matters incidental to its business. The Company
believes the resolution of any such matter currently pending will not have a material adverse
effect on its financial condition or results of operations or cash flows.
Indemnities and Guarantees
During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and
guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions.
These include (i) intellectual property indemnities to the Companys customers and licensees in
connection with the use, sale and/or license of Company products, (ii) indemnities to various
lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facilities or
leases, (iii) indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on the
negligence or willful misconduct of the Company, and (iv) indemnities involving the accuracy of
representations and warranties in certain contracts. The duration of these indemnities,
commitments and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, may be indefinite. The majority of these
indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential
for future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any
liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets.
Note 10 ¾ Stockholders Equity
In March 2000, the Companys stockholders approved the Companys 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the
2000 Plan), which generally replaced the Companys previous stock option plans. Under the 2000
Plan, 33,444,836 shares are reserved for issuance over its term, consisting of 12,944,836 shares
authorized under predecessor plans plus an additional 20,500,000 shares. The plan was amended in
March 2007 to allow for the issuance of restricted stock and restricted stock units. The maximum
number of shares that may be reserved for issuance of restricted stock or restricted stock unit
awards is 800,000. Nonqualified and incentive options may be granted to officers and employees
selected by the plans administrative committee at an exercise price not less than the fair market
value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. Options vest over a period of time, generally
three years, as designated by the committee and are
18
subject to such other terms and conditions as the committee determines. Certain stock options have also
been granted to employees of acquired businesses under other plans. The Company issues new shares
for stock option exercises and restricted stock grants.
Changes in shares under option are summarized as follows:

Of the 5.7 million non-vested shares under option as of October 31, 2009, approximately 4.8
million are expected to vest over their respective lives.
As of October 31, 2009, there were 1,269,652 shares of common stock that were available for future
grant. Of these shares, 5,669 were available for issuance of restricted stock.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value stock-based compensation expense.
Forfeitures are estimated at the date of grant based on historical rates and reduce the
compensation expense recognized. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical
data on employee exercises. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve
in effect at the date of grant. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the
Companys stock. The fair value of each option grant was estimated as of the grant date using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model for the years ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, assuming
risk-free interest rates of 2.6%, 3.0% and 4.8%, respectively; volatility of 51.5%, 40.8% and 43.0%, respectively; zero dividend
yield; and expected lives of 6.1, 5.7 and 5.6 years, respectively. The weighted average fair value
of options granted was $1.00, $3.85 and $7.16 for the years ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. The Company records stock-based compensation expense using the graded vested method
over the vesting period, which is generally three years. As of October 31, 2009, the Company had
approximately $4.3 million of unrecognized compensation expense expected to be recognized over a
weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years. Compensation expense was included as selling,
general and administrative expense for fiscal 2009, 2008 and 2007.
In March 2006, the Companys shareholders approved the 2006 Restricted Stock Plan and in March
2007, the Companys shareholders approved an amendment to the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan whereby
restricted shares and restricted stock units can be issued from such plan. Restricted stock issued
under these plans vests over a period of time, generally three to five years, and may have certain
performance based acceleration features which allow for earlier vesting.
Changes in restricted stock are as follows:

Compensation expense for restricted stock is determined using the intrinsic value method and
forfeitures are estimated at the date of grant based on historical rates and reduce the
compensation expense recognized. The Company monitors the probability of meeting the
restricted stock performance criteria and will adjust the amortization period as appropriate.
As of October 31, 2009, there had been no acceleration of the amortization period. As of
October 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $1.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense expected to be recognized over a weighted average
period of approximately 1.9 years.
The Company began the Quiksilver Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP) in fiscal 2001, which
provides a method for employees of the Company to purchase common stock at a 15% discount from
fair market value as of the beginning or end of each purchasing period of six months,
whichever is lower. The ESPP covers substantially all full-time domestic and Australian
employees who have at least five months of service with the Company. Since the adoption of
guidance within ASC 718, Stock Compensation, compensation expense has been recognized for
shares issued under the ESPP. During the years ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007,
550,798, 257,178 and 92,187 shares of stock were issued under the plan with proceeds to the
Company of $0.9 million, $1.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
20
During the years ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Company recognized total compensation
expense related to options, restricted stock and ESPP shares of approximately $8.4 million,
$12.0 million and $16.1 million, respectively.
The Company issued warrants for approximately 25.7 million shares of its common stock in
connection with the closing of its new five year senior secured term loan. See note 7 for
further details.

The tax benefits from the exercise of certain stock options are reflected as additions to paid-in
capital.
Income before provision for income taxes from continuing operations includes $102.7 million, $138.9
million and $172.3 million of income from foreign jurisdictions for the fiscal years ended October
31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Company does not provide for the U.S. federal, state or
additional foreign income tax effects on certain foreign earnings that management intends to
permanently reinvest. As of October 31, 2009, foreign earnings earmarked for permanent
reinvestment totaled approximately $170.3 million.
As of October 31, 2009, the Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$101 million and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $134 million, which will
expire on various dates through 2029. In addition, the Company has foreign tax loss carryforwards
of approximately $358 million as of October 31, 2009. Approximately $340 million will be carried
forward until fully utilized, with the remaining $18 million expiring on various dates through
2029. As of October 31, 2009, the Company has capital loss carryforwards of approximately $42
million which will expire in 2014.
On November 6, 2009, the Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 (the Act) was
enacted into legislation. The Act allows corporate taxpayers with net operating losses (NOLs)
for fiscal years ending after 2007 and beginning before 2010 to elect to carry back such NOLs up to
five years. This election may be made for only one fiscal year. The Company is evaluating the
impact that this legislation will have on its results and expects to apply the impact of the
extended NOL carry back period during fiscal 2010.
During the year ended October 31, 2009, the Company evaluated the realizability of its U.S. federal
and state deferred tax assets. The Company has evaluated the need for a valuation allowance with
respect to the U.S. consolidated tax group, which includes the U.S. portion of the Americas
operating segment and the U.S. portion of corporate operations. The Company has concluded that
based on all available information and proper weighting of objective and subjective evidence as of
October 31, 2009, including a cumulative loss that had been sustained over a three-year period by
the U.S. consolidated tax group, it is more likely than not that its U.S. federal and state
deferred tax assets will not be realized and a full valuation allowance was established against
$45.9 million of deferred tax assets that existed as of
23
October 31, 2008. A benefit from loss carrybacks of $2.8 million has been recognized on U.S. losses
sustained during the twelve months ended October 31, 2009. Income tax expense has been recognized
against non-U.S. earnings in the current period.
On November 1, 2007, the Company adopted guidance included in ASC 740, Income Taxes. As a result
of the adoption of this guidance, the Company recognized a $21.3 million reduction in retained
earnings upon adoption. This adjustment consisted of an increase in the Companys liability for
unrecognized tax benefits of $30.4 million partially offset by an increase to the Companys
deferred tax assets of $2.0 million and an increase in the Companys taxes receivable of $7.1
million. The total balance of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties of $7.8
million, was $37.4 million as of November 1, 2007.
The following table summarizes the activity related to the Companys unrecognized tax benefits
(excluding interest and penalties and related tax carryforwards):

If the Companys positions are sustained by the relevant taxing authority, approximately $31.4
million (excluding interest and penalties) of uncertain tax position liabilities would favorably
impact the Companys effective tax rate in future periods.
The Company includes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision
for income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, which is included in
current tax expense in the summary of income tax provision table shown above. During the fiscal
year ended October 31, 2009, the Company recorded tax expense of $4.1 million relating to interest
and penalties, and as of October 31, 2009, the Company had recognized a liability for interest and
penalties of $12.3 million.
During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that the Companys liability for uncertain tax
positions may change by a significant amount as a result of the resolution or payment of uncertain
tax positions related to intercompany transactions between foreign affiliates and certain foreign
withholding tax exposures. Conclusion of these matters could result in settlement for different
amounts than the Company has accrued as uncertain tax benefits. If a position for which the
Company concluded was more likely than not is subsequently not upheld, then the Company would need
to accrue and ultimately pay an additional amount. Conversely, the Company could settle positions
with the tax authorities for amounts lower than have been accrued or extinguish a position through
payment. The Company believes the outcomes which are reasonably possible within the next 12 months
range from a reduction of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $19 million to an increase
of the liability of $14 million, excluding penalties and interest.
The Company has completed a federal tax audit in the United States for fiscal years ending in 2004
and 2005 and remains subject to examination for years thereafter. The Companys significant
foreign tax jurisdictions, including France, Australia and Canada, are subject to normal and
regular examination for various tax years generally beginning in the 2000 fiscal year. The Company
is currently under examination in France, Australia and Canada for fiscal years ending through
2007.

Note 13 ¾ Employee Plans
The Company maintains the Quiksilver 401(k) Employee Savings Plan and Trust (the 401(k) Plan).
This plan is generally available to all domestic employees with six months of service and is funded
by employee contributions and, through fiscal 2007, periodic discretionary contributions from the
Company, which are approved by the Companys Board of Directors. The Company made contributions of
zero, zero and $1.0 million to the 401(k) Plan for the years ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
Employees of the Companys French subsidiary, Na Pali SAS, with three months of service are covered
under the French Profit Sharing Plan (the French Profit Sharing Plan), which is mandated by law.
Compensation is earned under the French Profit Sharing Plan based on statutory computations with an
additional discretionary component. Funds are maintained by the Company and vest with the
employees after five years, although earlier disbursement is optional if certain personal events
occur or upon the termination of employment. Compensation expense of $3.2 million, $3.4 million
and $4.1 million was recognized related to the French Profit Sharing Plan for the fiscal years
ended October 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Note 14 ¾ Segment and Geographic Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial
information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Companys management in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operates in the outdoor market of the
sporting goods industry in which the Company designs, markets and distributes clothing, footwear,
accessories and related products. The Company currently operates in three segments: the Americas,
Europe and Asia/Pacific. The Americas segment includes revenues from the U.S., Canada and Latin
America. The European segment includes revenues primarily from Western Europe. The Asia/Pacific
segment includes revenues primarily from Australia, Japan, New Zealand and Indonesia. Costs that
support all three segments, including trademark protection, trademark maintenance and licensing
functions, are part of corporate operations. Corporate operations also includes sourcing income
and gross profit earned from the Companys licensees. The Companys largest customer accounts for
less than 4% of its net revenues from continuing operations.
The Company sells a full range of its products within each geographical segment. The percentages
of revenues attributable to each of the Companys major product categories are as follows:

Note 15 Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates relating to certain sales, royalty income, and product purchases of its international
subsidiaries that are denominated in currencies other than their functional currencies. The
Company is also exposed to foreign currency gains and losses resulting from domestic transactions
that are not denominated in U.S. dollars, and to fluctuations in interest rates related to its
variable rate debt. Furthermore, the Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from the
effect that fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have on the reported results in the
Companys consolidated financial statements due to the translation of the operating results and
financial position of the Companys international subsidiaries. As part of its overall strategy to
manage the level of exposure to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the
Company uses various foreign currency exchange contracts and intercompany loans.
The Company accounts for all of its cash flow hedges under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging,
which requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at
fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company designates
forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities.
Effective February 1, 2009, the Company adopted additional guidance, which provides an enhanced
disclosure framework for derivative instruments. ASC 815 requires that the fair values of
derivative instruments and their gains and losses be disclosed in a manner that provides adequate
information about the impact these instruments can have on a companys financial position, results
of operations and cash flows.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective
portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive
income (OCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged
transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge
ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in
current earnings. As of October 31, 2009, the Company was hedging forecasted transactions expected
to occur through October 2011. Assuming October 31, 2009 exchange rates remain constant, $16.6
million of losses, net of tax, related to hedges of these transactions are expected to be
reclassified to earnings over the next 24 months.
For the year ended October 31, 2009, the effective portions of gains (losses) of foreign exchange
derivative instruments in the consolidated statement of operations were as follows:
Year Ended October 31, 2009 | ||||||||
In thousands | Amount | Location | ||||||
Loss recognized in OCI on derivatives |
$ | (41,036 | ) | Other comprehensive income | ||||
Loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into income |
$ | (14,343 | ) | Cost of goods sold | ||||
Loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into income |
$ | (17 | ) | Foreign currency gain (loss) | ||||
Loss recognized in income on derivatives |
$ | (691 | ) | Foreign currency gain (loss) |
On the date the Company enters into a derivative contract, management designates the derivative as
a hedge of the identified exposure. The Company formally documents all relationships between
hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for
entering into various hedge transactions. In this documentation, the Company identifies the asset,
liability, firm commitment, or forecasted transaction that has been designated as a hedged item and
indicates how the hedging instrument is expected to hedge the risks related to the hedged item.
The Company formally
27
measures effectiveness of its hedging relationships both at the hedge inception and on an ongoing
basis in accordance with its risk management policy. The Company would discontinue hedge
accounting prospectively (i) if management determines that the derivative is no longer effective in
offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item, (ii) when the derivative expires or is sold,
terminated, or exercised, (iii) if it becomes probable that the forecasted transaction being hedged
by the derivative will not occur, (iv) because a hedged firm commitment no longer meets the
definition of a firm commitment, or (v) if management determines that designation of the derivative
as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate. As a result of the expiration, sale, termination,
or exercise of derivative contracts, the Company reclassified into earnings net losses of $23.8
million and $8.3 million during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The Company enters into forward exchange and other derivative contracts with major banks and is
exposed to exchange rate losses in the event of nonperformance by these banks. The Company
anticipates, however, that these banks will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the
contracts. Accordingly, the Company does not obtain collateral or other security to support the
contracts.
As of October 31, 2009, the Company had the following outstanding forward contracts that were
entered into to hedge forecasted purchases:

Effective November 1, 2008, the Company adopted guidance included in ASC 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under generally
accepted accounting principles. ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be
received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most
advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 requires that valuation techniques maximize the use
of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820 also establishes a fair
value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the
underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three
levels. These levels are:
| Level 1 Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury securities. | ||
| Level 2 Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. | ||
| Level 3 Valuation is determined using model-based techniques with significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Companys own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of third party pricing services, option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. |

liabilities measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis on the consolidated balance

Note 18 Discontinued Operations
In October 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its golf equipment business, which
included Roger Cleveland Golf Company, Inc. and certain other related international subsidiaries,
for approximately $132.5 million. Majority ownership in this business was originally acquired in
fiscal 2005 as part of the Rossignol acquisition. The Company acquired the remaining 36.37%
minority interest in Roger Cleveland Golf Company, Inc. in September 2007. In connection with the
acquisition of the minority interest in Roger Cleveland Golf Company, Inc., the Companys U.S. golf
equipment operations, the Company remeasured the carrying value of related intangible assets. As a
result, the Company recorded asset impairments in fiscal 2007 of approximately $8.2 million, which
included goodwill impairment of approximately $5.4 million, trademark impairments of approximately
$2.4 million and patent impairments of approximately $0.4 million. The operations of the golf
equipment business are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The
Company closed this transaction in December 2007. The Company used the net proceeds from this sale
to repay indebtedness.
As of October 31, 2007 and in connection with its annual goodwill impairment test, the Company
remeasured the value of its intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles Goodwill
and Other, and noted that the carrying value was in excess of the estimated fair value. As a
result, the Company recorded Rossignol related goodwill impairment charges of approximately $156.9
million, approximately $6.9 million in trademark impairments and approximately $2.6 million in
fixed asset impairments. The Companys goodwill impairment was recognized as a result of its
annual impairment test for goodwill which was calculated using a combination of a discounted cash
flow and market approach. The value implied by the test was primarily affected by future forecasts
for its wintersports equipment businesses which were revised downward, primarily due to
managements assessment of the time frame for recovery of the wintersports equipment business and
the related expected future cash flows based on working capital requirements, recent snow
conditions, current industry conditions and trends, and general economic conditions.
During the three months ended April 30, 2008, the Company classified its Rossignol business,
including both wintersports equipment and related apparel, as discontinued operations. During this
same period, the Company reassessed the carrying value of Rossignol under ASC 205-20, Discontinued
Operations. The fair value of the Rossignol business was estimated using a combination of current
market indications of value, a discounted cash flow and a market-based multiple approach. As a
result, the Company recorded an impairment of Rossignols long-term assets of approximately $240.2
million, before taxes, during the three months ended April 30, 2008. This impairment included
approximately $129.7 million in fixed assets, $88.2 million in trademark and other intangible
assets, $18.3 million in goodwill and $4.0 million in other long-term assets. During the six
months ended October 31, 2008, the Company performed the same assessment and recorded additional
impairments of approximately $11.2 million, primarily consisting of fixed assets.
In August 2008, the Company received a binding offer for its Rossignol business, and completed the
transaction on November 12, 2008 for a purchase price of $50.8 million, comprised of $38.1 million
in cash and a $12.7 million sellers note. The Company used the net cash proceeds from the sale to
pay for related transaction costs and reduce its indebtedness. The sellers note was canceled in
October 2009 in connection with the completion of the final working capital adjustment.
The business sold includes the related brands of Rossignol, Dynastar, Look and Lange. The actual
pre-tax losses incurred upon closing were approximately $212.3 million, partially offset by a tax
benefit of approximately $89.4 million. These losses were recorded primarily during the three
months ended January 31, 2009.

Note 19 Restructuring Charges
In connection with its cost reduction efforts, the Company formulated the Fiscal 2009 Cost
Reduction Plan (the Plan). During the twelve months ended October 31, 2009, the Company recorded
$19.8 million in severance charges in selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A), which
includes $13.9 million in the Americas segment, $4.1 million in the European segment and $1.8
million in corporate operations. The Plan covers the global operations of the Company, but is
primarily concentrated in the United States. In addition to severance charges, the Company
completed the closure of its Huntington Beach, California distribution center during the twelve
months ended October 31, 2009. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $4.6
million in SG&A for the fair value of its lease commitments on this facility which extends through
fiscal 2014. This charge is net of estimated future sublease income. The Company could be
required to take future charges if it is not able to sub-lease this facility as planned. The
Company continues to evaluate its cost structure and may incur future charges under the Plan.
