Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q or in other materials we have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contains or may contain forward‑looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), including, but not limited to, statements regarding our future financial performance and financial condition.  Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “envisions,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.  Forward‑looking statements reflect our current views regarding certain events that could affect our financial condition or results of operations and may include, but are not limited to, references to future sales, comparable sales, margins, costs, earnings, number and costs of store openings, closings, remodels, refreshes, relocations and expansions, capital expenditures, potential acquisitions or divestitures, synergies from acquisitions, business strategies, demand for clothing or rental product, economic conditions, market trends in the retail and corporate apparel clothing business, currency fluctuations, inflation and various political, legal, regulatory, social, economic and business trends. Forward‑looking statements are based upon management’s current beliefs or expectations and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive risks, uncertainties and contingencies and third party approvals, many of which are beyond our control.

Any forward‑looking statements that we make herein and in future reports are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results may differ materially from those in such forward‑looking statements as a result of various factors. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: actions or inactions by governmental entities; domestic and international macro‑economic conditions; inflation or deflation; the loss of, or changes in, key personnel; success, or lack thereof, in formulating or executing our internal strategies and operating plans including new store and new market expansion plans; cost reduction initiatives and revenue enhancement strategies; changes in demand for clothing or rental product; market trends in the retail business; customer confidence and spending patterns; changes in traffic trends in our stores; customer acceptance of our merchandise strategies, including custom clothing; performance issues with key suppliers; disruptions in our supply chain; severe weather; foreign currency fluctuations; government export and import policies, including the enactment of duties or tariffs; advertising or marketing activities of competitors; the impact of cybersecurity threats or data breaches; legal proceedings and the impact of climate change.

Forward‑looking statements are intended to convey the Company’s expectations about the future, and speak only as of the date they are made.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward‑looking statements that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. However, any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be consulted.  This discussion is provided as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and all written or oral forward-looking statements that are made by or attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referenced in this section.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Significant Accounting Policies  

 

Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of Tailored Brands, Inc. and its 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 the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading, and the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal recurring 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.

 

Our business results historically have fluctuated throughout the year and, as a result, the operating results of the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 3, 2018.

 

Unless the context otherwise requires, "Company", "we", "us" and "our" refer to Tailored Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

 

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

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — We have considered all new accounting pronouncements and have concluded there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, based on current information, except for those listed below. 

 

In August 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 amends the existing hedge accounting model in order to enable entities to better portray the economics of their risk management activities in their financial statements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The guidance must be applied on a modified retrospective basis, while presentation and disclosure requirements set forth under ASU 2017-12 are required prospectively in all interim periods and fiscal years ending after the date of adoptionEarly adoption of ASU 2017-12 is permitted.  We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-12 to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases.  ASU 2016-02 increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.  The main difference between previous U.S. GAAP and ASU 2016-02 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption of ASU 2016-02 is permitted.  In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases - Targeted Improvements, that provided a practical expedient that removed the requirement to restate prior period financial statements upon adoption of the standard, which we plan to elect.  We have completed our review of the guidance and have made progress in our assessment phase including finalizing the practical expedient and accounting policy elections we will make upon adoption. Furthermore, we have selected a lease accounting system and are implementing processes and controls around that system to enable the preparation of the required financial information for this standard. While we are still evaluating the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, we expect that it will result in a significant increase in our long-term assets and liabilities given we have a considerable number of operating leases.

2.  Divestiture of MW Cleaners

 

On February 28, 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement to divest our MW Cleaners business for approximately $18.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, and the transaction closed on March 3, 2018.  During the first quarter of 2018, we received cash proceeds of $17.7 million and recorded a loss on the divestiture totaling $3.6 million, which is included within selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings, and relates to our retail segment.  During the second quarter of 2018, we recorded a $0.2 million unfavorable final working capital adjustment, which is included in SG&A in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings, and relates to our retail segment.  During the third quarter of 2018, no amounts were recorded related to the divestiture.  For the nine months ended November 3, 2018, the total loss on the divestiture of the MW Cleaners business totaled $3.8 million.

We determined that the sale of the MW Cleaners business did not represent a strategic shift and will not have a major effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.  Accordingly, we have not presented the sale as a discontinued operation in the condensed consolidated financial statements. 

 

 

3.  Termination of Tuxedo Rental License Agreement with Macy's

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we reached an agreement with Macy's to wind down operations under the tuxedo rental license agreement established between Macy's and The Men's Wearhouse, Inc. ("The Men's Wearhouse") in 2015. The winding down of our tuxedo shops within Macy's was completed in fiscal 2017 and all tuxedo shops within Macy's closed in the second quarter of 2017. 

 

As a result of the agreement, during the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we incurred $17.2 million of termination-related costs, of which $14.6 million were cash charges.  These costs included $12.3 million related to contract termination, $1.4 million of rental product write-offs, $1.2 million of asset impairment charges and $2.3 million of other costs, all of which relate to our retail segment. Of the $17.2 million in termination-related costs, $15.8 million is recorded in SG&A and $1.4 million is included in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  All termination-related costs were paid in fiscal 2017.

4.  Earnings Per Share    

 

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share is calculated using the treasury stock method.  Basic and diluted earnings per common share are computed using the actual net earnings and the actual weighted-average common shares outstanding rather than the rounded numbers presented within our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes.  As a result, it may not be possible to recalculate earnings per common share in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings and the accompanying notes. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

5.  Debt

 

In 2014, The Men's Wearhouse entered into a term loan credit agreement that provided for a senior secured term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (the "Original Term Loan") and a $500.0 million asset-based revolving credit agreement (the "ABL Facility", and together with the Original Term Loan, the "Credit Facilities") with certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and Moores the Suit People Inc., one of our Canadian subsidiaries, as co-borrowers. Proceeds from the Original Term Loan were reduced by an $11.0 million original issue discount ("OID"), which was presented as a reduction of the outstanding balance on the Original Term Loan on the balance sheet and amortized to interest expense over the contractual life of the Original Term Loan. In addition, in 2014, The Men's Wearhouse issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.00% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "Senior Notes").

 

In October 2017, The Men’s Wearhouse amended the ABL Facility in part to increase the principal amount available to $550.0 million and extend the maturity date to October 2022.  In April 2018, The Men’s Wearhouse refinanced its Original Term Loan, and in October 2018, amended its term loan to reduce the interest rate margin.  See Credit Facilities section below for additional information. 

 

The Credit Facilities and the Senior Notes contain customary non-financial and financial covenants, including fixed charge coverage ratios, total leverage ratios and secured leverage ratios.  Should our total leverage ratio and secured leverage ratio exceed certain thresholds specified in the agreements, we would be subject to certain additional restrictions, including limitations on our ability to make significant acquisitions and incur additional indebtedness. As of November 3, 2018, our total leverage ratio and secured leverage ratio are below these thresholds and we believe these ratios will remain below the thresholds specified in the agreements for the foreseeable future, which results in the elimination of these additional restrictions. In addition, as a result of the refinancing of our Original Term Loan and amending of our ABL Facility, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock has increased from a maximum of $10.0 million per quarter to a maximum of $15.0 million per quarter.

Credit Facilities

 

In April 2018, we refinanced our Original Term Loan.  Immediately prior to the refinancing, the Original Term Loan consisted of $593.4 million in aggregate principal amount with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.50% (with a floor of 1.0%) and $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount with a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum.  Upon entering into the refinancing, we made a prepayment of $93.4 million on the Original Term Loan using cash on hand.

 

As a result, we refinanced $900.0 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans then outstanding with a new Term Loan totaling $900.0 million (the “New Term Loan”).  Additionally, we may continue to request additional term loans or incremental equivalent debt borrowings, all of which are uncommitted, in an aggregate amount up to the greater of (1) $250.0 million and (2) an aggregate principal amount such that, on a pro forma basis (giving effect to such borrowings), our senior secured leverage ratio will not exceed 2.5 to 1.0. 

 

The New Term Loan will amortize in an annual amount equal to 1.0% of the principal amount of the New Term Loan, payable quarterly commencing on May 1, 2018.  Proceeds from the New Term Loan were reduced by a $4.5 million OID, which was presented as a reduction of the outstanding balance on the New Term Loan on the balance sheet and was to be amortized to interest expense over the contractual life of the New Term Loan. 

 

The New Term Loan extends the maturity date of the Original Term Loan from June 18, 2021 until April 9, 2025, subject to a springing maturity provision that would accelerate the maturity of the New Term Loan to April 1, 2022 if any of the Company’s obligations under its Senior Notes remain outstanding on April 1, 2022.

 

The New Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at the Company’s option, either LIBOR (with a floor of 1.0%) or the base rate (with a floor of 2.0%).  In October 2018, we amended the New Term Loan resulting in a reduction in the interest rate margin of 25 basis points.  As a result of the amendment, the margins for borrowings under the New Term Loan are 3.25% for LIBOR and 2.25% for the base rate and the OID was eliminated.  The maturity date for the New Term Loan remains April 9, 2025, and all other material provisions of the New Term Loan remain unchanged.

 

The interest rate on the New Term Loan is based on 1-month LIBOR, which was 2.32% at November 3, 2018, plus the applicable margin of 3.25%, resulting in a total interest rate of 5.57%.  We have two interest rate swap agreements where the variable rates due under the New Term Loan have been exchanged for a fixed rate, including an interest rate swap entered into during June 2018.  At November 3, 2018, the total notional amount under these interest rate swaps is $715.0 million.  Please see Note 15 for additional information on our interest rate swaps.

 

As a result of our interest rate swaps, 80% of the variable interest rate under the New Term Loan has been converted to a fixed rate and, as of November 3, 2018, the New Term Loan had a weighted average interest rate of 5.69%.

 

In connection with the April 2018 refinancing of the New Term Loan, we incurred deferred financing costs of $5.6 million, which was to be amortized over the life of the New Term Loan using the interest method.  In addition, as a result of the refinancing, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $11.9 million consisting of the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs and OID related to the Original Term Loan, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.

 

In connection with the October 2018 amendment of the New Term Loan, we incurred deferred financing costs of $1.1 million, which will be amortized over the life of the New Term Loan using the interest method.  In addition, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $9.4 million consisting of the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs and OID, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.

In October 2017, we amended our ABL Facility, which now provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility of $550.0 million, with possible future increases to $650.0 million under an expansion feature, that matures in October 2022, and is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Tailored Brands, Inc. and certain of our U.S. subsidiaries. The ABL Facility has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBOR, (ii) Canadian Dollar Offered Rate ("CDOR") rate, (iii) Canadian prime rate or (iv) an alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the New York Federal Reserve Bank (“NYFRB”) rate plus 0.5% or adjusted LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.0%). Advances under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin of up to 1.75%.  The ABL Facility also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit which range from 1.25% to 1.75%, and a fee on unused commitments of 0.25%.  As of November 3, 2018, $58.5 million in borrowings were outstanding under the ABL Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.3%. During the nine months ended November 3, 2018, the maximum borrowing outstanding under the ABL Facility was $104.5 million.

 

The obligations under the Credit Facilities are secured on a senior basis by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, The Men’s Wearhouse and its U.S. subsidiaries and, in the case of the ABL Facility, Moores The Suit People Inc. The Credit Facilities and the related guarantees and security interests granted thereunder are senior secured obligations of, and will rank equally with all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company, the co-borrowers and the respective guarantors. 

We utilize letters of credit primarily as collateral for workers compensation claims and to secure inventory purchases.  At November 3, 2018, letters of credit totaling approximately $33.8 million were issued and outstanding. Borrowings available under the ABL Facility as of November 3, 2018 were $457.7 million.

 

Senior Notes

 

The Senior Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by Tailored Brands, Inc. and certain of our U.S. subsidiaries. The Senior Notes and the related guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the guarantors, respectively, and will rank equally with all of the Company's and each guarantor's present and future senior indebtedness. The Senior Notes will mature in July 2022.  Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in January and July of each year.

 

During the second quarter of 2018, we completed a partial redemption of $175.0 million in face value of our Senior Notes.  The Senior Notes were redeemed at a redemption price equal to $1,035 per $1,000 principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, we recorded a net loss on extinguishment totaling $8.1 million, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  The net loss on extinguishment reflects a $6.1 million loss upon repurchase of the Senior Notes and the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs totaling $2.0 million related to the Senior Notes. 

 

For the nine months ended November 3, 2018, as a result of the partial redemption of $175.0 million in face value of our Senior Notes as well as the repurchase and retirement of $17.6 million in face value of Senior Notes through open market transactions in the first quarter of 2018, we recorded a net loss on extinguishment totaling $8.9 million, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  The net loss on extinguishment reflects a $6.7 million loss upon repurchase and the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs totaling $2.2 million related to the Senior Notes.

Adoption of ASC 606

 

Effective February 4, 2018, we adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all related amendments (“ASC 606”), to all contracts using the modified retrospective approach.  We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC 606 as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.  The adoption had no impact to our previously reported results of operations or cash flows.  The comparative period information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the period presented.

The adoption of ASC 606 primarily impacted the timing of revenue recognition related to our customer loyalty program, gift cards and e-commerce sales within our retail segment, as discussed in more detail below.  In addition, for our corporate apparel segment, certain deferred revenue balances along with related inventory amounts were eliminated as part of the cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings.  Also, for estimated sales returns, we now recognize allowances for estimated sales returns on a gross basis rather than a net basis on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Please see Note 16 for additional information regarding our reporting segments.

 

Retail Segment

For retail clothing product revenue, we transfer control and recognize revenue at a point in time, upon sale or shipment of the merchandise, net of actual sales returns and an accrual for estimated sales returns.  For rental and alteration services, we transfer control and recognize revenue at a point in time, upon receipt by the customer.  Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services.  Sales, use and value added taxes we collect from our customers and are remitted to governmental agencies are excluded from revenue.   

 

Loyalty Program

 

We maintain a customer loyalty program for our Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank and Moores brands in which customers receive points for purchases. Points are generally equivalent to dollars spent on a one‑to‑one basis, excluding any sales tax dollars, and do not expire. Upon reaching 500 points, customers are issued a $50 rewards certificate which they may redeem for purchases at our stores or online. Generally, reward certificates earned must be redeemed no later than six months from the date of issuance.  We believe our loyalty program represents a customer option that is a material right and, accordingly, is a performance obligation in the contract with our customer.  Therefore, we will record our obligation for future point redemptions using a deferred revenue model.  In prior years, we used an incremental cost approach where we accrued the estimated costs of the anticipated certificate redemptions when the certificates were issued and charged such costs to cost of sales.

 

When loyalty program members earn points, we recognize a portion of the transaction as revenue for merchandise product sales or services and defer a portion of the transaction representing the value of the related points. The value of the points

is recorded in deferred revenue on our condensed consolidated balance sheet and recognized into revenue when the points are converted into a rewards certificate and the certificate is used.

 

We account for points earned and certificates issued that will never be redeemed by loyalty members, which we refer to as breakage. We review our breakage estimates at least annually based upon the latest available information regarding redemption and expiration patterns.

 

Our estimate of the expected usage of points and certificates requires significant management judgment. Current and future changes to our assumptions or to loyalty program rules may result in material changes to the deferred revenue balance as well as recognized revenues from the loyalty program.  For example, during fiscal 2018, we plan to test potential changes to our loyalty program in order to improve the effectiveness of the program, such as redemption of points into a rewards certificate prior to reaching 500 points.

 

Gift Card Breakage

 

Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are recorded as a liability and are recognized as net sales from products and services when the cards are redeemed.  Our gift cards do not have expiration dates.  In addition, we recognize revenue for gift cards for which the likelihood of redemption is deemed to be remote and for which there is no legal obligation to remit the value of such unredeemed gift cards to any relevant jurisdictions (commonly referred to as gift card breakage) under the redemption recognition method. This method records gift card breakage as revenue on a proportional basis over the redemption period based on our historical gift card breakage rate. We review our gift card breakage estimate based on our historical redemption patterns.  In prior years, we recognized income from breakage of gift cards as a reduction of SG&A when the likelihood of redemption of the gift card was remote.

 

Sales Returns

 

Revenue from merchandise product sales is reported net of sales returns, which includes an estimate of future returns based on historical return rates, with a corresponding reduction to cost of sales. Our refund liability for sales returns was $6.1 million at November 3, 2018, which is included in accrued and other current liabilities and represents the expected value of the refund that will be due to our customers.  We also have a corresponding asset included in other current assets that represents the right to recover products from customers associated with sales returns of $2.7 million at November 3, 2018.  In prior years, we recognized an accrual for estimated sales returns on a net basis.

 

Corporate Apparel Segment

 

For our corporate apparel segment, we sell corporate clothing and uniforms to workforces under a contract or by purchase order.  We transfer control and recognize revenue at a point in time, generally upon delivery of the product to the customer.  Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services.  Sales, use and value added taxes we collect from our customers and are remitted to governmental agencies are excluded from revenue.

transactions since we typically receive payment from our customers prior to our performance and deferred revenue related to our loyalty programs and unredeemed gift cards.  These amounts are included as “Customer deposits, prepayments and refunds payable,” “Loyalty program liabilities” and “Unredeemed gift cards,” respectively, within the accrued expenses and other current liabilities line item on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.  Please see Note 10 for additional information on our accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

 

The amount of revenue recognized for the three and nine months ended November 3, 2018 that was included in the opening contract liability balance was $10.1 million and $76.4 million, respectively.  This revenue primarily consists of recognition of deposits for completed transactions as well as redeemed certificates related to our loyalty program and gift card redemptions.

 

Practical Expedients and Impact on Fiscal 2018 Results

 

Due to the short term nature of a significant portion of our contracts with customers, we have elected to apply the practical expedients under ASC 606 to:  (1) not adjust the consideration for the effects of a significant financing component, (2) recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract as expense when incurred and (3) not disclose the value of our unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less. 

 

In accordance with ASC 606, the following tables reflect the impact on our fiscal 2018 condensed consolidated statement of earnings and balance sheet as if we had continued to apply accounting standards in effect last year (“Legacy GAAP”) (in thousands, except per share amounts):

9.  Income Taxes

 

In December 2017, the U.S. enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”). The changes included in the Tax Reform Act are broad and complex, including, but not limited to reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.  Our federal income tax expense for fiscal 2018 is based on the new rate. 

 

Our effective income tax rate increased to 48.9% for the third quarter of 2018 from 32.8% for the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to the non-deductibility of the goodwill impairment charge and certain executive compensation costs partially offset by the impact of the Tax Reform Act.

 

Our effective income tax rate decreased to 26.3% for the first nine months of 2018 from 34.2% for the first nine months of 2017 primarily from enactment of the Tax Reform Act, the release of $3.1 million of state valuation allowances and anniversarying last year’s $2.2 million of tax deficiencies related to the vesting of stock-based awards recorded in the first nine months of 2017 resulting from the adoption of new accounting guidance related to stock-based compensation.

 

Shortly after the Tax Reform Act was enacted, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”) which provides guidance on accounting for the Tax Reform Act’s impact. SAB 118 provides a measurement period, which in no case should extend beyond one year from the Tax Reform Act enactment date, during which a company acting in good faith may complete the accounting for the impacts of the Tax Reform Act. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act in the reporting period in which the accounting is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act is incomplete, a company can determine a reasonable estimate for those effects and record a provisional estimate in the financial statements in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined.

At the end of fiscal 2017, we recorded a provisional discrete net tax benefit of $0.3 million related to the Tax Reform Act as well as a provisional estimate of incremental withholding liabilities on our investment in foreign earnings totaling $17.3 million as we no longer intend to permanently reinvest our foreign earnings from Canada. 

 

During the first nine months of 2018, there have been no material updates to these provisional amounts; however, we expect a favorable SAB 118 adjustment in the fourth quarter of 2018. While we have made a reasonable estimate of the impact of the Tax Reform Act, we are continuing to finalize the consequences of tax reform, including analyzing additional information related to the Tax Reform Act as supplemental legislation, regulatory guidance, or evolving technical interpretations become available.  We expect that our transition tax and the temporary differences that existed on the date of enactment will be presumed final once our federal return is filed. 

 

Additionally, we are currently undergoing several audits; however, we currently do not believe these audits will result in any material charge to tax expense in the future.

Cash Settled Awards

 

During 2017, we granted stock-based awards to certain employees, which vest over a period of three years, and will be settled in cash ("cash settled awards").  The fair value of the cash settled awards at each reporting period is based on the price of our common stock and includes a market condition.  The fair value of the cash settled awards will be remeasured at each reporting period until the awards are settled.  Cash settled awards are classified as liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  At November 3, 2018, the liability associated with the cash settled awards was $3.9 million with $2.5 million recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $1.4 million recorded in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment at least annually. A more frequent evaluation is performed if events or circumstances indicate that impairment could have occurred. Such events or circumstances could include, but are not limited to, new significant negative industry or economic trends, unanticipated changes in the competitive environment, decisions to significantly modify or dispose of operations and a significant sustained decline in the market price of our stock.

During the third quarter of 2018, sales, profitability and cash flow of our corporate apparel reporting unit underperformed in comparison to our forecast.  The performance of our corporate apparel business was and continues to be impacted by increasing uncertainty surrounding Brexit, which is resulting in lower replenishment demand from existing accounts in the United Kingdom (“UK”).  In addition, in the third quarter of 2018, we received notification from a significant U.S. customer of their decision not to renew their existing agreement with us in 2019. As a result of the continued uncertainty surrounding Brexit and the notification from our U.S. customer, we appropriately lowered our forecast of sales, profitability and cash flow for the corporate apparel reporting unit for the fourth quarter of 2018 and future years.

   

As a result of the factors above, we determined that a triggering event occurred during the third quarter of 2018 and an interim goodwill impairment test for our corporate apparel reporting unit was required.  We concluded that the reporting unit’s goodwill was fully impaired and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $24.0 million during the third quarter of 2018, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  As of November 3, 2018, October 28, 2017, and February 3, 2018, accumulated goodwill impairment totaled $804.0 million, $778.5 million and $780.0 million, respectively. 

 

Consistent with the procedures followed in our annual impairment test, we estimated the fair value of the reporting unit using a combined income and market comparable approach.  Our income approach uses projected future cash flows that are discounted using a weighted‑average cost of capital analysis that reflects current market conditions.  The market comparable approach primarily considers market price multiples of comparable companies and applies those price multiples to certain key drivers of the reporting unit.  We believe these two approaches are appropriate valuation techniques and we weighted the two values equally as an estimate of reporting unit fair value for the purposes of our impairment testing. 

 

Management judgment is a significant factor in the goodwill impairment evaluation process. The computations require management to make estimates and assumptions. Critical assumptions used in the interim impairment test for the corporate apparel reporting unit included:

 

·

The potential future cash flows of the reporting unit.  The income approach relies on the timing and estimates of future cash flows. The projections use management’s estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period, including growth rates in revenue, gross margin and expense (all Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy). 

·

Selection of an appropriate discount rate.  The income approach requires the selection of an appropriate discount rate, which is based on a weighted‑average cost of capital analysis. The discount rate is affected by changes in short‑term interest rates and long‑term yield as well as variances in the typical capital structure of marketplace participants. The weighted‑average cost of capital used to discount the cash flows for the interim goodwill impairment test was 13.5%, which is 100 basis points higher than the last annual test, reflecting the increasing uncertainty surrounding Brexit.

·

Selection of comparable companies within the industry.  For purposes of the market comparable approach, valuations were determined by calculating average price multiples of relevant key drivers from a group of companies that are comparable to the reporting unit being tested and applying those price multiples to the key drivers of the reporting unit. The determination of the market comparable also involves a degree of judgment. Earnings multiples used in the market comparable approach for the interim goodwill impairment test ranged from 5.5 to 8.0.

 

During the third quarter of 2018, we also performed an interim impairment test of the intangible assets of the corporate apparel reporting unit totaling $10.7 million, consisting of a customer relationship asset with a carrying value of $8.2 million and tradenames with a carrying value of $2.5 million and determined, as of November 3, 2018, that none were impaired.

14.  Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, categorizing the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy can be described as follows:  Level 1- observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2- inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3- unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.  The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Derivative financial instruments are comprised of (1) interest rate swap agreements to minimize our exposure to interest rate changes on our outstanding indebtedness, (2) foreign currency forward exchange contracts primarily entered into to minimize our foreign currency exposure related to forecasted purchases of certain inventories denominated in a currency different from the operating entity’s functional currency, (3) foreign currency forward exchange contracts primarily entered into to minimize our foreign currency exposure related to forecasted revenues from our UK operations denominated in a currency different from the UK’s functional currency and (4) foreign currency forward exchange contracts primarily entered into to minimize our foreign currency exposure related to intercompany loans denominated in a currency different from the operating entity’s functional currency. These derivative financial instruments are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value based upon observable market inputs, primarily pricing models based on current market rates. Derivative financial instruments in an asset position are included within other current assets or other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Derivative financial instruments in a liability position are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities or noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Please see Note 15 for further information regarding our derivative instruments.

Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

 

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and identifiable intangibles, are periodically evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the asset carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. 

 

During the three and nine months ended November 3, 2018, we incurred $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of asset impairment charges, which is included within SG&A expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings, related to underperforming stores. In addition, during the nine months ended November 3, 2018, we recognized a writeoff of $4.0 million of rental product related to the closure of a rental product distribution center, which is included within cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings.

During the nine months ended October 28, 2017, we incurred $2.9 million of asset impairment charges, which is included within SG&A expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of earnings, primarily related to underperforming stores as well as long-lived assets related to our tuxedo rental license agreement with Macy’s. 

 

We estimated the fair value of the long-lived assets based on an income approach using projected future cash flows discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital analysis that reflects current market conditions, which we classify as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and our Term Loan and Senior Notes.  Management estimates that, as of November 3, 2018, October 28, 2017, and February 3, 2018, the carrying value of our financial instruments, other than our Term Loan and Senior Notes, approximated their fair value due to the highly liquid or short-term nature of these instruments.  We believe that the borrowings under our ABL Facility approximate their fair value because interest rates are adjusted on a short-term basis.

 

The fair values of our Term Loan were valued based upon observable market data provided by a third party for similar types of debt, which we classify as a Level 2 input within the fair value hierarchy.   The fair value of our Senior Notes is based on quoted prices in active markets, which we classify as a Level 1 input within the fair value hierarchy.  The table below shows the fair value and carrying value of our long-term debt, including current portion (in thousands):

15.  Derivative Financial Instruments

 

In April 2017, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on an initial notional amount of $260.0 million that matures in June 2021 with periodic interest settlements. At November 3, 2018, the notional amount totaled $370.0 million. Under this interest rate swap agreement, we receive a floating rate based on 1-month LIBOR and pay a fixed rate of 5.31% (including the applicable margin of 3.25%) on the outstanding notional amount. We have designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge of the variability of interest payments under the Term Loan due to changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate.

 

In June 2018, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on an initial notional amount of $320.0 million that matures in April 2025 with periodic interest settlements. At November 3, 2018, the notional amount totaled $345.0 million. Under this interest rate swap agreement, we receive a floating rate based on 1-month LIBOR and pay a fixed rate of 6.18% (including the applicable margin of 3.25%) on the outstanding notional amount. We have designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge of the variability of interest payments under the Term Loan due to changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate.

 

At November 3, 2018, the fair value of the interest rate swaps was a net asset of $11.1 million with $2.3 million recorded in other current assets and $9.6 million recorded in other assets offset by $0.8 million recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The effective portion of the swaps is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income.  There was no hedge ineffectiveness at November 3, 2018.

(Unaudited)

 

Changes in fair value are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income into earnings in the same period that the hedged item affects earnings.

 

Over the next 12 months, $1.5 million of the effective portion of the interest rate swaps is expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income into earnings within interest expense.  If, at any time, an interest rate swap is determined to be ineffective, in whole or in part, due to changes in the interest rate swap or underlying debt agreements, the fair value of the portion of the interest rate swap determined to be ineffective will be recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of earnings for the applicable period.

 

Also, we have entered into derivative instruments to hedge our foreign exchange risk, specifically related to the British pound and Euro.  At November 3, 2018, the notional amount of the British pound and Euro instruments totaled $25.6 million and $8.9 million, respectively, and mature at various times through December 2019. We have designated these instruments as cash flow hedges of the variability in exchange rates for those foreign currencies.  At November 3, 2018, the fair value of these cash flow hedges was an asset of $0.7 million recorded in other current assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The effective portion of the hedges is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income.  Hedge ineffectiveness at November 3, 2018 was immaterial.  Changes in fair value are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income into earnings in the same period that the hedged item affects earnings. Over the next 12 months, $1.8 million of the effective portion of the cash flow hedges is expected to be reclassified as expense into cost of sales from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income.

 

In addition, we are exposed to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct sourcing programs, specifically related to the Canadian dollar.  As a result, from time to time, we may enter into derivative instruments to hedge this foreign exchange risk.  At November 3, 2018, the notional amount of these instruments totaled $4.6 million. We have not elected to apply hedge accounting to these derivative instruments. Amounts related to these transactions were immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.

 

16.  Segment Reporting

 

Our operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.

 

The retail segment includes the results from our four retail merchandising brands: Men's Wearhouse/Men's Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank, Moores Clothing for Men ("Moores") and K&G.  These four brands are operating segments that have been aggregated into the retail reportable segment.  Prior to its divestiture, MW Cleaners was also aggregated in the retail segment as its operations did not have a significant effect on our revenues or expenses.  Specialty apparel merchandise offered by our four retail merchandising concepts include suits, suit separates, sport coats, slacks, formalwear, business casual, denim, sportswear, outerwear, dress shirts, shoes and accessories for men. Women's career and casual apparel, sportswear and accessories, including shoes, and children's apparel is offered at most of our K&G stores.  Rental product is offered at our Men's Wearhouse/Men's Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank and Moores retail stores.

 

The corporate apparel segment includes the results from our corporate apparel and uniform operations conducted by Dimensions, Alexandra, and Yaffy in the UK and Twin Hill in the U.S., which provide corporate apparel uniforms and workwear to workforces. 

 

We measure segment profitability based on operating income, defined as income before interest expense, interest income, (loss) gain on extinguishment of debt, net and income taxes, before shared service expenses. Shared service expenses include costs incurred and directed primarily by our corporate offices that are not allocated to segments.

17.  Legal Matters

 

On February 17, 2016, Anthony Oliver filed a putative class action lawsuit against our Men's Wearhouse subsidiary in the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:16-cv-01100).  The complaint attempts to allege claims under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. In particular the complaint alleges that the Company sent unsolicited text messages to cellular telephones beginning October 1, 2013 to the present day. After we demonstrated that the Company had the plaintiff's permission to send him texts, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint alleging the Company sent text messages exceeding the number plaintiff had agreed to receive each week.  The parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment on what constitutes a “week” and the Court recently issued an order granting the plaintiff’s motion and denying our motion on what period constitutes a “week.” On or about August 17, 2018, we entered into a settlement agreement for an immaterial amount consisting of a combination of cash and coupons. The settlement agreement, which is subject to preliminary and final approval of the Court, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On August 2, 2017, two American Airlines employees, Thor Zurbriggen and Dena Catan, filed a putative class action lawsuit against our Twin Hill subsidiary in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (Case No. 1:17-cv-05648). The complaint alleged claims for strict liability, negligence, and medical monitoring based on allegedly defective uniforms Twin Hill supplied to American Airlines for its employees. On September 28, 2017, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint adding nine additional named plaintiffs, adding American Airlines, Inc. as a defendant, and adding claims for civil battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Plaintiffs filed a Seconded Amended Complaint on October 4, 2018 on behalf of 39 named plaintiffs, adding PSA Airlines, Inc. and Envoy Air Inc. as defendants, adding new factual allegations and adding a new claim of fraud against American.  The Second Amended Complaint included plaintiffs from the Onody (Case No. 1:18-cv-02303) and Joy (Case No. 1:18-cv-05808) matters we reported in prior filings. As a result, on October 16, 2018, the judge dismissed the separate Onody and Joy matters. We have timely answered the Second Amended Complaint and the matter will proceed in due course. We believe that any lawsuit filed on the basis of the safety of the Twin Hill uniforms supplied to American Airlines is without merit, and we intend to contest this action vigorously. Twin Hill has substantial and convincing evidence of the uniforms' safety and fitness for their intended purpose, and we believe that there is no evidence linking any of the plaintiffs' alleged injuries to our uniforms. The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time. We do not currently believe, however, that it will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

On September 27, 2017, Heather Poole and numerous other American Airlines employees filed a lawsuit against our Twin Hill subsidiary in the Superior Court for the State of California for the County of Alameda (Case No. RG17876798).  The complaint attempts to allege claims for strict liability and negligence based on allegedly defective uniforms Twin Hill supplied to American Airlines for its employees. On December 11, 2017, the Company filed a demurrer to Plaintiff’s complaint.  On February 20, 2018, the Court granted our demurrer and dismissed the plaintiffs’ Complaint. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on April 10, 2018 and again on April 27, 2018, which added allegations regarding Plaintiffs’ alleged injuries and named Tailored Brands as a defendant. We believe that any lawsuit filed on the basis of the safety of the Twin Hill uniforms supplied to American Airlines is without merit, and we intend to contest this action vigorously. Twin Hill has substantial and convincing evidence of the uniforms' safety and fitness for their intended purpose, and we believe that there is no evidence linking any of the plaintiffs' alleged injuries to our uniforms. The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time. We do not currently believe, however, that it will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On October 30, 2017, Melodie Agnello, Denise Mumma, and numerous other American Airlines employees filed a lawsuit against our Twin Hill subsidiary in the Superior Court for the State of California for the County of Alameda (Case No. RG17880635).  The complaint attempts to allege claims for strict liability and negligence based on allegedly defective uniforms Twin Hill supplied to American Airlines for its employees. On December 11, 2017, the Company filed a demurrer to plaintiff’s complaint.  On February 20, 2018, the Court granted our demurrer and dismissed the plaintiffs’ Complaint. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on April 27, 2018, which added allegations regarding Plaintiffs’ alleged injuries and named Tailored Brands as a defendant. We believe that any lawsuit filed on the basis of the safety of the Twin Hill uniforms supplied to American Airlines is without merit, and we intend to contest this action vigorously. Twin Hill has substantial

The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time. We do not currently believe, however, that it will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On April 27, 2018, Alexandra Hughes, and numerous other American Airlines employees filed a lawsuit against our Twin Hill subsidiary and Tailored Brands in the Superior Court for the State of California for the County of Alameda (Case No. RG18902727).  The complaint attempts to allege claims for strict liability and negligence based on allegedly defective uniforms Twin Hill supplied to American Airlines for its employees.  We believe that any lawsuit filed on the basis of the safety of the Twin Hill uniforms supplied to American Airlines is without merit, and we intend to contest this action vigorously.

On April 27, 2018, Rosemary Mackonochie, and numerous other American Airlines employees filed a lawsuit against our Twin Hill subsidiary and Tailored Brands in the Superior Court for the State of California for the County of Alameda (Case No. RG18902720).  The complaint attempts to allege claims for strict liability and negligence based on allegedly defective uniforms Twin Hill supplied to American Airlines for its employees.  We believe that any lawsuit filed on the basis of the safety of the Twin Hill uniforms supplied to American Airlines is without merit, and we intend to contest this action vigorously. Twin Hill has substantial and convincing evidence of the uniforms' safety and fitness for their intended purpose, and we believe that there is no evidence linking any of the plaintiffs' alleged injuries to our uniforms. The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time. We do not currently believe, however, that it will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On August 31, 2018, Michele Wagoner and several other American Airlines employees filed a lawsuit against our Twin Hill subsidiary and Tailored Brands in the Superior Court for the State of California for the County of Alameda (Case No. RG18919080).  The complaint attempts to allege claims for strict liability and negligence based on allegedly defective uniforms Twin Hill supplied to American Airlines for its employees.  We believe that any lawsuit filed on the basis of the safety of the Twin Hill uniforms supplied to American Airlines is without merit, and we intend to contest this action vigorously. Twin Hill has substantial and convincing evidence of the uniforms' safety and fitness for their intended purpose, and we believe that there is no evidence linking any of the plaintiffs' alleged injuries to our uniforms. The range of loss, if any, is not reasonably estimable at this time. We do not currently believe, however, that it 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 does not believe that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

18.  Condensed Consolidating Information

 

As discussed in Note 5, The Men's Wearhouse (the "Issuer") issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes.  The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by Tailored Brands, Inc. (the "Parent") and certain of our U.S. subsidiaries (the "Guarantors").  Our foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the "Non-Guarantors") are not guarantors of the Senior Notes.  Each of the Guarantors is 100% owned and all guarantees are joint and several.  In addition, the guarantees are full and unconditional except for certain automatic release provisions related to the Guarantors.

 

These automatic release provisions are considered customary and include the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or all of the capital stock of any subsidiary guarantor, the release or discharge of a guarantor's guarantee of the obligations under the Term Loan other than a release or discharge through payment thereon, the designation in accordance with the Indenture of a guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary or the satisfaction of the requirements for defeasance or discharge of the Senior Notes as provided for in the Indenture.

 

The tables in the following pages present the condensed consolidating financial information for the Parent, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Non-Guarantors, together with eliminations, as of and for the periods indicated.  The consolidating financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the financial positions, results of operations or cash flows had the Issuer, Guarantors and Non-Guarantors operated as independent entities.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

We encourage you to read this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" ("MD&A") in conjunction with the corresponding section included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 3, 2018.  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 "2018" mean the 52-week fiscal year ending February 2, 2019.

 

Executive Overview

 

Background

 

We are the leading specialty retailer of men’s tailored clothing and the largest men’s formalwear provider in the United States (“U.S.”) and Canada and help men dress for work and special occasions.  We serve our customers through an expansive omni-channel network that includes over 1,400 stores in the U.S. and Canada as well as our branded e-commerce websites at www.menswearhouse.com, www.josbank.com, and www.josephabboud.com.

On February 28, 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement to divest our MW Cleaners business for approximately $18.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, and the transaction closed on March 3, 2018.  Please see Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

 

Our operations are conducted in two reportable segments, retail and corporate apparel, based on the way we manage, evaluate and internally report our business activities.  Please see Note 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the discussion included in "Results of Operations" below for additional information and disclosures regarding our reportable segments.

 

Leadership Transition Discussion

 

On August 28, 2018, we reported that Douglas S. Ewert announced his intention to retire as Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and as a member of our Board of Directors (the “Board”), effective September 30, 2018. Dinesh Lathi, Non-Executive Chairman of the Board, was appointed Executive Chairman. In light of Mr. Lathi’s new role, the Board appointed Theo Killion as lead independent director. To ensure an orderly transition, Mr. Ewert agreed to serve as a strategic advisor until the end of the calendar year. The Board has initiated a comprehensive search process to identify a successor CEO. As a result of Mr. Ewert’s retirement, in the third quarter of 2018, we recorded a total of $6.4 million in costs including $5.4 million of severance and consulting costs, $0.7 million related to the accelerated vesting of certain share-based awards (net of the impact of forfeited awards) and $0.3 million of other costs.

 

We also announced that Bruce Thorn resigned from his position as President and Chief Operating Officer, effective August 31, 2018 to pursue another opportunity.

 

Third Quarter Discussion

 

During the third quarter of 2018, retail segment comparable sales increased 2.3% with all retail brands generating positive comparable sales.  Our sales growth was driven primarily by custom suiting, which sold at an average rate of $5 million per week.  During the third quarter, we executed well on our custom growth strategy including improving our custom offering’s speed, selection and service, making custom even more compelling to customers. 

 

In addition, during the third quarter of 2018, we also executed our strategies to reduce inventories and debt to improve capital efficiency and strengthen our balance sheet.  Inventories at the end of third quarter of 2018 decreased approximately 10.0% compared to the end of the third quarter of 2017.  We also repriced our term loan, reducing the interest rate by 25 basis points, which lowers our annual cash interest expense by more than $2 million.  Our total debt has decreased approximately $300.0 million versus a year ago. 

 

Also, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $24.0 million related to our corporate apparel reporting unit, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  Please see Note 13 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets within ‘‘Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates’’ for further details.

Key operating metrics for the quarter ended November 3, 2018 include:

 

·

Net sales increased 0.2% primarily due to an increase in retail segment comparable sales partially offset by the impact of our MW Cleaners divestiture.

·

Comparable sales increased 1.7% at Men’s Wearhouse, 3.8% at Jos. A. Bank, 4.0% at K&G and 1.2% at Moores. Overall, comparable sales for our retail segment increased 2.3%.

·

Operating income was $55.1 million for the third quarter of 2018 compared to operating income of $76.6 million in the third quarter of 2017.

·

Key liquidity metrics for the nine months ended November 3, 2018 include:

 

·

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter of 2018 were $68.4 million, a decrease of $57.8 million compared to the end of the third quarter of 2017, resulting from the use of cash on hand in the second quarter of 2018 to fund a portion of the partial redemption of $175.0 million in face value of our Senior Notes.

·

Cash provided by operating activities was $277.8 million for the first nine months of 2018 compared to $252.5 million for the first nine months of 2017.

·

Capital expenditures were $46.9 million for the first nine months of 2018 compared to $56.0 million for the first nine months of 2017.

·

We repaid $100.2 million on our term loan, repurchased and retired $192.6 million in face value of Senior Notes and have $58.5 million of borrowings outstanding on our revolving credit facility as of November 3, 2018.

·

Dividends paid totaled $27.8 million for the first nine months of 2018.

Seasonality

 

Our sales and net earnings are subject to seasonal fluctuations and may vary by brand. Typically, our rental product revenues are heavily concentrated in the second and third quarters (prom and wedding season) while the fourth quarter is the seasonal low point.  With respect to corporate apparel sales and operating results, seasonal fluctuations are not significant but the acquisition of new customers or existing customer decisions to rebrand or revise their corporate wear programs can cause significant variations in period results. Because of these fluctuations, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year.

Net Sales

 

Total net sales increased $1.9 million, or 0.2%, to $812.7 million for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017.

 

Total retail sales increased $4.2 million, or 0.6%, to $751.7 million for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to a $13.2 million increase in clothing product sales, driven by an increase in comparable sales at all of our retail brands. This increase was partially offset by a $7.3 million decrease in alteration and other services revenues primarily reflecting the impact of our divestiture of MW Cleaners and a $1.7 million decrease in rental service revenues. The increase in total retail sales is further described below:

Comparable sales percentages for Moores are calculated using Canadian dollars.

 

Comparable sales is defined as net sales from stores open at least twelve months at period end, excluding stores where the square footage has changed by more than 25% within the past year, and includes e-commerce sales. Due to the 53-week to 52-week calendar shift, comparable sales for the third quarter of 2018 are compared with the 13-week period ended November 4, 2017.  We operate our business using an omni-channel approach and do not differentiate e-commerce sales from our other channels.

 

The increase in comparable sales at Men's Wearhouse resulted primarily from an increase in average unit retail (net selling prices) partially offset by a decrease in both units per transaction and transactions for clothing. Rental service comparable sales at Men’s Wearhouse decreased 0.6%. The increase at Jos. A. Bank resulted primarily from an increase in both transactions and average unit retail partially offset by a decrease in units per transaction. The increase at K&G resulted from an increase in transactions, units per transaction and average unit retail. The increase at Moores resulted primarily from an increase in transactions partially offset by a decrease in units per transaction, while average unit retail was flat. 

 

Total corporate apparel clothing product sales decreased $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to lower sales in the United Kingdom (“UK”) as well as the impact of a weaker British pound this year compared to last year of approximately $0.6 million. 

 

Gross Margin

 

Procurement and distribution costs are included in determining our retail and corporate apparel clothing product gross margins.  Our gross margin may not be comparable to other specialty retailers, as some companies exclude costs related to their distribution network from cost of sales while others, like us, include all or a portion of such costs in cost of sales and exclude them from SG&A expenses.  Distribution costs are not included in determining our rental services gross margin but are included in SG&A expenses.

 

Our total gross margin increased $4.0 million, or 1.1%, to $362.7 million in the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017 primarily as a result of higher retail clothing product revenue.  Total retail segment gross margin increased $4.1 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared to same period last year. 

 

For the retail segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased to 46.0% in the third quarter of 2018 from 45.8% in the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to leveraging of occupancy costs as a percent of sales.

 

Occupancy costs, which includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, decreased $2.1 million primarily due to the impact of our divestiture of MW Cleaners. Occupancy costs as a percentage of retail sales decreased to 13.5% in the third quarter of 2018 as compared to 13.9% in the third quarter of 2017.

Corporate apparel gross margin decreased $0.1 million, or 0.5%, to $16.6 million for the third quarter of 2018 compared to the third quarter of 2017.  For the corporate apparel segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased to 27.2% in the third quarter of 2018 from 26.4% in the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to the impact of renegotiated pricing arrangements with our UK customers.

 

Advertising Expense

 

Advertising expense decreased to $37.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 from $38.7 million in the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 3.4%.  As a percentage of total net sales, advertising expense decreased to 4.6% in the third quarter of 2018 from 4.8% in the third quarter of 2017.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

SG&A expenses increased to $246.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 from $243.5 million in the third quarter of 2017, an increase of $2.8 million, or 1.2%.  As a percentage of total net sales, these expenses increased to 30.3% in the third quarter of 2018 from 30.0% in the third quarter 2017. The components of this 0.3% net increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of total net sales and the related dollar changes were as follows:

In the corporate apparel segment, SG&A expenses were flat.  As a percentage of related net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 21.8% in the third quarter of 2018 from 21.0% in the third quarter of 2017. 

 

Shared service expenses represent costs not specifically related to the operations of our business segments and are included in SG&A and increased $1.5 million.  As a percentage of total net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 6.4% in the third quarter of 2018 from 6.2% in the third quarter of 2017.

 

Goodwill Impairment Charge

 

During the third quarter of 2018, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $24.0 million related to our corporate apparel reporting unit, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings.  Please see Note 13 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets within ‘‘Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates’’ for further details.

 

Net (Loss) Gain on Extinguishment of Debt

 

The $9.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the third quarter of 2018 relates to the amending of the New Term Loan resulting in a reduction in the interest rate margin of 25 basis points and consists of the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue discount (“OID”). 

 

The $2.5 million net gain on extinguishment of debt in the third quarter of 2017 relates to open market repurchases of our Senior Notes.

Provision for Income Tax

 

In December 2017, the U.S. enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”). The changes included in the Tax Reform Act are broad and complex, including, but not limited to reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.  Our federal income tax expense for fiscal 2018 is based on the new rate. 

 

Our effective income tax rate increased to 48.9% for the third quarter of 2018 from 32.8% for the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to the non-deductibility of the goodwill impairment charge and certain executive compensation costs partially offset by the impact of the Tax Reform Act.

 

For the third quarter of 2018, the statutory tax rates in U.S., Canada, UK and Hong Kong were approximately 21%, 26%, 19% and 16.5%, respectively. In addition, we recorded a Canadian withholding tax of 5% based on the removal of the permanent reinvestment representation in the fourth quarter of 2017.  For the third quarter of 2017, the statutory tax rates in U.S., Canada, UK and Hong Kong were approximately 35%, 26%, 19% and 16.5%, respectively.  For the third quarters of 2018 and 2017, tax expense for our operations in foreign jurisdictions totaled $3.3 million and $6.2 million, respectively.

 

Our income tax expense and effective income tax rate in future periods may be impacted by many factors, including finalization of provisional items with respect to the Tax Reform Act, and our geographic mix of earnings and changes in tax laws. 

 

In addition, if our financial results in fiscal 2018 generate a loss or certain deferred tax liabilities decrease, we may need to establish a valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets, which could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Lastly, we are currently undergoing several audits, however, we currently do not believe these audits will result in any material charge to tax expense in the future.

 

Net Earnings

 

Net earnings were $13.9 million for the third quarter of 2018 compared with net earnings of $36.9 million for the third quarter of 2017.

Net Sales

 

Total net sales increased $9.7 million, or 0.4%, to $2,454.1 million for the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of 2017.

 

Total retail sales increased $8.7 million, or 0.4%, to $2,274.5 million for the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of 2017 due to a $54.1 million increase in clothing product revenues primarily due to an increase in comparable sales partially offset by a $23.2 million decrease in rental services revenue primarily reflecting a consumer shift to purchase suits for special occasions and a $22.2 million decrease in alteration and other services revenues primarily reflecting the impact of our divestiture of MW Cleaners.

Comparable sales percentages for Moores are calculated using Canadian dollars.

 

Comparable sales is defined as net sales from stores open at least twelve months at period end, excluding stores where the square footage has changed by more than 25% within the past year, and includes e-commerce sales. We operate our business using an omni-channel approach and do not differentiate e-commerce sales from our other channels. 

 

The increase in comparable sales at Men's Wearhouse resulted primarily from an increase in both transactions for clothing and average unit retail partially offset by a decrease in units per transaction. At Men's Wearhouse, rental service comparable sales decreased 5.6% primarily reflecting a consumer shift to purchase suits for special occasions. The increase at Jos. A. Bank resulted primarily from an increase in transactions partially offset by a decrease in average unit retail and units per transaction. The increase at K&G resulted from an increase in both units per transaction and average unit retail partially offset by a decrease in transactions. The increase at Moores resulted from an increase in transactions and a slight increase in average unit retail partially offset by a slight decrease in units per transaction. 

 

Total corporate apparel clothing product sales increased $1.0 million for the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of 2017 primarily due to a stronger British pound this year compared to last year of approximately $5.9 million partially offset by a decrease in sales at the UK. 

 

Gross Margin

 

Procurement and distribution costs are included in determining our retail and corporate apparel clothing product gross margins. Our gross margin may not be comparable to other specialty retailers, as some companies exclude costs related to their distribution network from cost of sales while others, like us, include all or a portion of such costs in cost of sales and exclude them from SG&A expenses.  Distribution costs are not included in determining our rental services gross margin but are included in SG&A expenses.

 

Our total gross margin decreased $11.0 million, or 1.0%, to $1,076.9 million in the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of 2017.  Total retail segment gross margin decreased $11.9 million, or 1.1%, in the first nine months of 2018 compared to the same period last year primarily due to lower rental service revenue as well as lower alteration and other services revenue primarily resulting from our divestiture of MW Cleaners. 

 

For the retail segment, total gross margin as a percentage of retail sales decreased to 45.2% in the first nine months of 2018 from 45.9% in the nine months of 2017 driven primarily by deeper discounts on seasonal merchandise in support of our strategy to move to a more efficient inventory model partially offset by lower occupancy costs as a percent of sales. 

 

Occupancy costs, which includes store related rent, common area maintenance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security, property taxes and depreciation, decreased $7.7 million primarily due to the impact of our divestiture of MW Cleaners and

the closure of our tuxedo shops within Macy’s in 2017. Occupancy costs as a percentage of retail sales decreased to 13.4% in the first nine months of 2018 from 13.8% in the first nine months of 2017.

 

Corporate apparel gross margin increased $0.8 million, or 1.8%, in the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of 2017.  For the corporate apparel segment, total gross margin as a percentage of related sales increased to 26.7% in the first nine months of 2018 from 26.4% in the first nine months of 2017.

 

Advertising Expense

 

Advertising expense decreased to $117.2 million in the first nine months of 2018 from $120.8 million in the first nine months of 2017, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 3.0%.  The decrease in advertising expense was driven primarily by reductions in television advertising reflecting a shift to digital advertising, as well as the timing of marketing spend. As a percentage of total net sales, advertising expense was 4.8% in the first nine months of 2018 compared to 4.9% in the first nine months of 2017.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

SG&A expenses decreased to $739.7 million in the first nine months of 2018 from $751.0 million in the first nine months of 2017, a decrease of $11.3 million, or 1.5%.  As a percentage of total net sales, these expenses decreased to 30.1% in the first nine months of 2018 from 30.7% in the first nine months of 2017.  The components of this 0.6% decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of total net sales and the related dollar changes were as follows:

Net (Loss) Gain on Extinguishment of Debt

 

The $30.3 million net loss on extinguishment of debt in the first nine months of 2018 consists of the elimination of unamortized deferred financing costs and OID related to the refinancing and repricing of our Term Loan totaling $21.4 million and an $8.9 million loss on extinguishment related to our Senior Notes.

 

The $6.5 million net gain on extinguishment of debt in the first nine months of 2017 relates to open market repurchases of our Senior Notes. 

 

Provision for Income Tax

 

Our effective income tax rate decreased to 26.3% for the first nine months of 2018 from 34.2% for the first nine months of 2017 primarily from enactment of the Tax Reform Act, the release of $3.1 million of state valuation allowances and anniversarying last year’s $2.2 million of tax deficiencies related to the vesting of stock-based awards recorded in the first six months of 2017 resulting from the adoption of new accounting guidance related to stock-based compensation.

 

For the first nine months of 2018, the statutory tax rates in U.S., Canada, UK and Hong Kong were approximately 21%, 26%, 19% and 16.5%, respectively. For the first nine months of 2017, the statutory tax rates in U.S., Canada, UK and Hong Kong were approximately 35%, 26%, 19% and 16.5%, respectively.  For the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, tax expense for our operations in foreign jurisdictions totaled $8.7 million and $12.2 million, respectively.

 

Our income tax expense and effective income tax rate in future periods may be impacted by many factors, including our geographic mix of earnings and changes in tax laws. 

 

In addition, if our financial results in fiscal 2018 generate a loss or certain deferred tax liabilities decrease, we may need to establish a valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets, which could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.  Lastly, we are currently undergoing several federal, foreign and state audits; however, we currently do not believe these audits will result in any material change to tax expense in the future.

In 2014, The Men's Wearhouse entered into a term loan credit agreement that provided for a senior secured term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (the "Original Term Loan") and a $500.0 million asset-based revolving credit agreement (the "ABL Facility", and together with the Original Term Loan, the "Credit Facilities") with certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and Moores the Suit People Inc., one of our Canadian subsidiaries, as co-borrowers. Proceeds from the Original Term Loan were reduced by an $11.0 million OID, which was presented as a reduction of the outstanding balance on the Original Term Loan on the balance sheet and amortized to interest expense over the contractual life of the Original Term Loan. In addition, in 2014, The Men's Wearhouse issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.00% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "Senior Notes").

 

In October 2017, The Men’s Wearhouse amended the ABL Facility in part to increase the principal amount available to $550.0 million and extend the maturity date to October 2022.  In April 2018, The Men’s Wearhouse refinanced its Original Term Loan, and in October 2018, amended its term loan to reduce the interest rate margin.  See Credit Facilities section below for additional information. 

47


 

The Credit Facilities and the Senior Notes contain customary non-financial and financial covenants, including fixed charge coverage ratios, total leverage ratios and secured leverage ratios.  Should our total leverage ratio and secured leverage ratio exceed certain thresholds specified in the agreements, we would be subject to certain additional restrictions, including limitations on our ability to make significant acquisitions and incur additional indebtedness. As of November 3, 2018, our total leverage ratio and secured leverage ratio are below these thresholds and we believe these ratios will remain below the thresholds specified in the agreements for the foreseeable future, which results in the elimination of these additional restrictions. In addition, as a result of the refinancing of our Original Term Loan and amending of our ABL Facility, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock has increased from a maximum of $10.0 million per quarter to a maximum of $15.0 million per quarter.

 

Credit Facilities

 

In April 2018, we refinanced our Original Term Loan.  Immediately prior to the refinancing, the Original Term Loan consisted of $593.4 million in aggregate principal amount with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.50% (with a floor of 1.0%) and $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount with a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum.  Upon entering into the refinancing, we made a prepayment of $93.4 million on the Original Term Loan using cash on hand.

 

As a result, we refinanced $900.0 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans then outstanding with a new Term Loan totaling $900.0 million (the “New Term Loan”).  Additionally, we may continue to request additional term loans or incremental equivalent debt borrowings, all of which are uncommitted, in an aggregate amount up to the greater of (1) $250.0 million and (2) an aggregate principal amount such that, on a pro forma basis (giving effect to such borrowings), our senior secured leverage ratio will not exceed 2.5 to 1.0. 

 

The New Term Loan will amortize in an annual amount equal to 1.0% of the principal amount of the New Term Loan, payable quarterly commencing on May 1, 2018.  Proceeds from the New Term Loan were reduced by a $4.5 million OID, which was presented as a reduction of the outstanding balance on the New Term Loan on the balance sheet and was to be amortized to interest expense over the contractual life of the New Term Loan. 

 

The New Term Loan extends the maturity date of the Original Term Loan from June 18, 2021 until April 9, 2025, subject to a springing maturity provision that would accelerate the maturity of the New Term Loan to April 1, 2022 if any of the Company’s obligations under its Senior Notes remain outstanding on April 1, 2022.

 

The New Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at the Company’s option, either LIBOR (with a floor of 1.0%) or the base rate (with a floor of 2.0%).  In October 2018, we amended the New Term Loan resulting in a reduction in the interest rate margin of 25 basis points.  As a result of the amendment, the margins for borrowings under the New Term Loan are 3.25% for LIBOR and 2.25% for the base rate and the OID was eliminated.  The maturity date for the New Term Loan remains April 9, 2025, and all other material provisions of the New Term Loan remain unchanged.

 

The interest rate on the New Term Loan is based on 1-month LIBOR, which was 2.32% at November 3, 2018, plus the applicable margin of 3.25%, resulting in a total interest rate of 5.57%.  We have two interest rate swap agreements where the variable rates due under the New Term Loan have been exchanged for a fixed rate, including an interest rate swap entered into during June 2018.  At November 3, 2018, the total notional amount under these interest rate swaps is $715.0 million.  Please see Note 15 for additional information on our interest rate swaps.

 

As a result of our interest rate swaps, 80% of the variable interest rate under the New Term Loan has been converted to a fixed rate and, as of November 3, 2018, the New Term Loan had a weighted average interest rate of 5.69%.

 

In October 2017, we amended our ABL Facility, which now provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility of $550.0 million, with possible future increases to $650.0 million under an expansion feature, that matures in October 2022, and is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Tailored Brands, Inc. and certain of our U.S. subsidiaries. The ABL Facility has several borrowing and interest rate options including the following indices:  (i) adjusted LIBOR, (ii) Canadian Dollar Offered Rate ("CDOR") rate, (iii) Canadian prime rate or (iv) an alternate base rate (equal to the greater of the prime rate, the New York Federal Reserve Bank (“NYFRB”) rate plus 0.5% or adjusted LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.0%). Advances under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin of up to 1.75%.  The ABL Facility also provides for fees applicable to amounts available to be drawn under outstanding letters

of credit which range from 1.25% to 1.75%, and a fee on unused commitments of 0.25%.  As of November 3, 2018, $58.5 million in borrowings were outstanding under the ABL Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.3%.

 

We utilize letters of credit primarily as collateral for workers compensation claims and to secure inventory purchases.  At November 3, 2018, letters of credit totaling approximately $33.8 million were issued and outstanding. Borrowings available under the ABL Facility as of November 3, 2018 were $457.7 million.

 

The obligations under the Credit Facilities are secured on a senior basis by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, The Men’s Wearhouse and its U.S. subsidiaries and, in the case of the ABL Facility, Moores The Suit People Inc. The Credit Facilities and the related guarantees and security interests granted thereunder are senior secured obligations of, and will rank equally with all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company, the co-borrowers and the respective guarantors. 

The Senior Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by Tailored Brands, Inc. and certain of our U.S. subsidiaries. The Senior Notes and the related guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the guarantors, respectively, and will rank equally with all of the Company's and each guarantor's present and future senior indebtedness. The Senior Notes will mature in July 2022.  Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in January and July of each year. Please see Note 5 for additional information on the partial redemption of $175.0 million in face value of our Senior Notes during the second quarter of 2018.

 

Cash Flow Activities

 

Operating activities — Net cash provided by operating activities was $277.8 million and $252.5 million for the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The $25.3 million increase was driven by higher net earnings, after adjusting for certain items primarily related to extinguishment of debt and goodwill impairment as well as favorable fluctuations in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities primarily due to timing, partially offset by an increase in inventories ahead of the fourth quarter holiday season.

 

Investing activities — Net cash used in investing activities was $29.2 million and $54.3 million for the first nine months of 2018 and 2017. The net change of $25.1 million was primarily driven by $17.8 million of net proceeds from the divestiture of MW Cleaners.

 

Financing activities — Net cash used in financing activities was $281.4 million and $146.3 million for the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The $135.1 million increase primarily reflects the impact of additional debt repayments this year compared to last year.

 

Share repurchase program — In March 2013, the Board of Directors (the "Board") approved a share repurchase program for our common stock.  At November 3, 2018, the remaining balance available under the Board's authorization was $48.0 million.  During the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, no shares were repurchased in open market transactions under the Board's authorization.

 

Dividends — Cash dividends paid were $27.8 million and $26.9 million for the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, respectively.  During each of the quarters ended November 3, 2018 and October 28, 2017, we declared quarterly dividends of $0.18 per share.

 

Future Sources and Uses of Cash

 

Our primary uses of cash are to finance working capital requirements of our operations and to repay our indebtedness.  In addition, we will use cash to fund capital expenditures, income taxes, dividend payments, operating leases and various other commitments and obligations, as they arise.

 

During the first nine months of 2018, we borrowed and repaid amounts under our ABL Facility with the maximum borrowing outstanding at any point in time totaling $104.5 million.

 

Capital expenditures are now anticipated to be approximately $90.0 million for 2018.  This amount includes the anticipated costs to open approximately three Men's Wearhouse stores and to relocate approximately seven stores across our retail brands.  The balance of the capital expenditures for 2018 will be used for store refreshes and other enhancements of our

49


 

store fleet, investments in computer equipment and systems, distribution facilities improvements, and investment in other corporate assets.

Additionally, market conditions may produce attractive opportunities for us to make acquisitions. Any such acquisitions may be undertaken as an alternative to opening new stores. We may use cash on hand, together with cash flow from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facilities and issuances of debt or equity securities, to take advantage of any acquisition opportunities.

Current and future domestic and global economic conditions could negatively affect our future operating results as well as our existing cash and cash equivalents balances. In addition, conditions in the financial markets could limit our access to further capital resources, if needed, and could increase associated costs. We believe based on our current business plan that our existing cash and cash flows from operations and availability under our ABL Facility will be sufficient to fund our operating cash requirements, repayment of current indebtedness, and capital expenditures.

Contractual Obligations

 

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018, except as related to long-term debt which are summarized below:

The payments due by period do not consider amounts which may become payable under the excess cash flow provision of our New Term Loan.  Interest on our ABL borrowings is excluded from the amounts presented in the table due to our inability to predict the timing and settlement of our ABL borrowings.  See Notes 5 and 15 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires the appropriate application of accounting policies in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  In many instances, this also requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts and disclosures included in our financial statements.  We base our estimates on historical experience and various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under our current business model.  However, because future events and conditions and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results will differ from our estimates and such differences could be material to our financial statements.  There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018 except as follows.

 

Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

 

During the third quarter of 2018, sales, profitability and cash flow of our corporate apparel reporting unit underperformed in comparison to our forecast.  The performance of our corporate apparel business was and continues to be impacted by increasing uncertainty surrounding Brexit, which is resulting in lower replenishment demand from existing accounts in the UK.  In addition, in the third quarter of 2018, we received notification from a significant U.S. customer of their decision not to renew their existing agreement with us in 2019. As a result of the continued uncertainty surrounding Brexit and the notification from our U.S. customer, we appropriately lowered our forecast of sales, profitability and cash flow for the corporate apparel reporting unit for the fourth quarter of 2018 and future years.

   

As a result of the factors above, we determined that a triggering event occurred during the third quarter of 2018 and an interim goodwill impairment test for our corporate apparel reporting unit was required.  We concluded that the reporting unit’s goodwill was fully impaired and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $24.0 million during the third quarter of 2018, which is included as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings. 

 

50


 

Consistent with the procedures followed in our annual impairment test, we estimated the fair value of the reporting unit using a combined income and market comparable approach.  Our income approach uses projected future cash flows that are discounted using a weighted‑average cost of capital analysis that reflects current market conditions.  The market comparable approach primarily considers market price multiples of comparable companies and applies those price multiples to certain key drivers of the reporting unit.  We believe these two approaches are appropriate valuation techniques and we weighted the two values equally as an estimate of reporting unit fair value for the purposes of our impairment testing. 

 

Management judgment is a significant factor in the goodwill impairment evaluation process. The computations require management to make estimates and assumptions. Critical assumptions used in the interim impairment test for the corporate apparel reporting unit included:

 

·

The potential future cash flows of the reporting unit.  The income approach relies on the timing and estimates of future cash flows. The projections use management’s estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period, including growth rates in revenue, gross margin and expense (all Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy). 

·

Selection of an appropriate discount rate.  The income approach requires the selection of an appropriate discount rate, which is based on a weighted‑average cost of capital analysis. The discount rate is affected by changes in short‑term interest rates and long‑term yield as well as variances in the typical capital structure of marketplace participants. The weighted‑average cost of capital used to discount the cash flows for the interim goodwill impairment test was 13.5%, which is 100 basis points higher than the last annual test, reflecting the increasing uncertainty surrounding Brexit.

·

Selection of comparable companies within the industry.  For purposes of the market comparable approach, valuations were determined by calculating average price multiples of relevant key drivers from a group of companies that are comparable to the reporting unit being tested and applying those price multiples to the key drivers of the reporting unit. The determination of the market comparable also involves a degree of judgment. Earnings multiples used in the market comparable approach for the interim goodwill impairment test ranged from 5.5 to 8.0.

 

As of November 3, 2018, goodwill totaled $79.5 million, with $58.3 million allocated to our Men’s Wearhouse reporting unit and $21.2 million allocated to our Moores reporting unit.    Based on our last annual impairment evaluation, the fair values of these reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying values and, therefore, as of November 3, 2018, no reporting units are deemed “at risk” for goodwill impairment.

 

During the third quarter of 2018, we also performed an interim impairment test of the intangible assets of the corporate apparel reporting unit totaling $10.7 million, consisting of a customer relationship asset with a carrying value of $8.2 million and tradenames with a carrying value of $2.5 million and determined, as of November 3, 2018, that none were impaired.  The estimated fair value of the customer relationship asset exceeded its carrying value by approximately 32%.

 

Estimating future cash flows requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment, including forecasting future sales, costs and useful lives of assets. Significant judgment is also involved in selecting the appropriate discount rate to be applied in determining the estimated fair value of an asset. Changes to our key assumptions related to future performance, market conditions and other economic factors can significantly affect our impairment evaluation and may trigger the need for future impairment tests possibly resulting in future impairment charges related to intangible assets of the corporate apparel reporting unit.

 

We are committed to an ongoing evaluation of our portfolio of businesses and maximizing value for our shareholders.  Such an evaluation may result in the consideration of a range of options related to our corporate apparel business, some of which could result in additional non-cash losses in future periods.

Loyalty Program Accounting

 

Effective February 4, 2018, we adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all related amendments (“ASC 606”). As a result, we no longer use the incremental cost method approach but will record our obligation for future point redemptions using a deferred revenue model. 

 

We maintain a customer loyalty program for our Men’s Wearhouse, Men’s Wearhouse and Tux, Jos. A. Bank and Moores brands in which customers receive points for purchases. Points are generally equivalent to dollars spent on a one‑to‑one basis, excluding any sales tax dollars, and do not expire. Upon reaching 500 points, customers are issued a $50 rewards certificate which they may redeem for purchases at our stores or online. Generally, reward certificates earned must be redeemed no later than six months from the date of issuance. 

 

When loyalty program members earn points, we recognize a portion of the transaction as revenue for merchandise product sales or services and defer a portion of the transaction representing the value of the related points. The value of the points is recorded in deferred revenue on our condensed consolidated balance sheet and recognized into revenue when the points are converted into a rewards certificate and the certificate is used.

 

We account for points earned and certificates issued that will never be redeemed by loyalty members, which we refer to as breakage. We review our breakage estimates at least annually based upon the latest available information regarding redemption and expiration patterns.

 

Our estimate of the expected usage of points and certificates requires significant management judgment. Current and future changes to our assumptions or to loyalty program rules may result in material changes to the deferred revenue balance as well as recognized revenues from the loyalty program.  For example, during fiscal 2018, we plan to test potential changes to our loyalty program in order to improve the effectiveness of the program, such as redemption of points into a rewards certificate prior to reaching 500 points.

 

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.

 

We are exposed to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of our direct sourcing programs and our operations in foreign countries.  In connection with our direct sourcing programs, we may enter into merchandise purchase commitments that are denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the operating entity.  Our risk management policy is to hedge a portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for our direct sourcing programs that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts.  In addition, we have entered into derivative instruments to hedge our foreign exchange risk, specifically related to the British pound and Euro. 

 

As the foreign exchange forward contracts are with financial institutions, we are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by these parties but due to the creditworthiness of these major financial institutions, full performance is anticipated.

 

As discussed in Note 5 and Note 15 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we have undertaken steps to mitigate our exposure to changes in interest rates on our New Term Loan.  As of November 3, 2018, 80% of the variable interest rate under the New Term Loan has been converted to a fixed rate.  At November 3, 2018, the effect of one percentage point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $1.8 million change in annual interest expense on our New Term Loan.

 

In addition, borrowings under our ABL Facility bear a floating rate of interest.  As of November 3, 2018, the outstanding borrowings under the ABL Facility were $58.5 million.  At November 3, 2018, the effect of a one percentage point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $0.6 million change in annual interest expense on our ABL borrowings.

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 ("Executive Chairman") 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 period covered by this report.  Based on this evaluation, the Executive Chairman and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure information that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Executive Chairman and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

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 third quarter ended November 3, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1 — LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 17 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

ITEM 1A — RISK FACTORS

 

For a more detailed explanation of the factors affecting our business, please refer to the Risk Factors section in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018.  There has not been a material change to the risk factors set forth in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018, except for the following risk factors which supplement and/or update risk factors previously disclosed and should be considered in conjunction with the Risk Factors section in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018: 

 

We source our products globally, therefore, we may be impacted by tariffs recently imposed and proposed by the U.S. with respect to certain products imported from China.

 

In fiscal 2017, we reported that our retail brands sourced approximately 66% of direct sourced merchandise from Asia (39% from China) while 11% was sourced in the U.S. (primarily from our U.S. factory), 6% was sourced in Mexico and 17% was sourced in other regions.  The Company’s historical practice was to include raw materials sourced in foreign countries even if the finished goods using those raw materials were manufactured in a different country.  As the U.S. has recently imposed tariffs on certain imports from China, we believe revising our historical practice to report the amount of finished goods manufactured in foreign countries is more meaningful to investors to evaluate the impact of current or future tariffs on imports from China.  For fiscal 2017, our revised metrics reflect that our retail brands sourced approximately 74% of direct sourced merchandise from Asia (30% from China) while 9% was sourced in the U.S. (primarily from our U.S. factory), 6% was sourced in Mexico and 11% was sourced in other regions. 

 

During 2018, the U.S. imposed tariffs on goods imported from China and expressed a willingness for further tariffs on additional goods imported from China. As a result, we are evaluating the potential impact of the effective and proposed tariffs on our supply chain, costs, sales and profitability and are considering strategies to address such impact. Given the uncertainty regarding the scope and duration of the effective and proposed tariffs, as well as the potential for additional trade actions by the U.S. or other countries, the impact on our operations and results is uncertain and could be significant, and we can provide no assurance that any strategies we implement to address the impact of such tariffs or other trade actions will be successful. To the extent that our supply chain, costs, sales or profitability are negatively affected by the tariffs or other trade actions, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

 

Our corporate apparel business faces risks relating to the United Kingdom’s 2016 referendum, which called for its exit from the European Union.

 

The June 2016 referendum result in the United Kingdom (“UK”) to exit the European Union (“EU”) (commonly known as “Brexit”), and the subsequent commencement of the official withdrawal process by the UK government in March 2017, has created uncertainties affecting our business operations in the UK.  For the first nine months of 2018, net sales of our UK operations constituted approximately 6% of our consolidated net sales.

 

In the near term, we believe this uncertainty has caused some of our UK customers and potential customers to curtail spending on their uniform programs.  In the longer term, any impact from Brexit on our corporate apparel business will depend, in part, on the outcome of tariff, trade, regulatory and other negotiations. Although it is unknown what the result of those negotiations will be, it is possible that new terms may disrupt trade and the movement of goods, services and people between the UK and the EU or other countries, disrupt the stability of the EU generally, as well as create legal, political and global economic uncertainty. These and other potential implications may adversely affect our corporate apparel business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

The decrease in sales for our UK operations, combined with the notification received by a significant U.S. customer of their decision not to renew their existing agreement with us in 2019, resulted in the lowering of our forecast of sales, profitability

54


 

and cash flow for the corporate apparel reporting unit for the fourth quarter of 2018 and future years. As a result, we concluded that the goodwill of the corporate apparel business was fully impaired and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $24.0 million during the third quarter of 2018.  Please see Note 13 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets within ‘‘Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates’’ for further details.
