FOSSIL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED
 
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENT POLICIES
Basis of Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fossil Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”).
The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 29, 2019, and the results of operations for the thirteen-week periods ended June 29, 2019 (“Second Quarter”) and June 30, 2018 (“Prior Year Quarter”), respectively, and the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2019 (“Year To Date Period”) and June 30, 2018 (“Prior Year YTD Period”). All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the Second Quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full fiscal year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has not made any changes in its significant accounting policies from those disclosed in the 2018 Form 10-K, other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842): Amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification® ("ASU 2016-02") and ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities ("ASU 2017-12").
Business. The Company is a global design, marketing and distribution company that specializes in consumer fashion accessories. Its principal offerings include an extensive line of men's and women's fashion watches and jewelry, handbags, small leather goods, belts and sunglasses. In the watch and jewelry product categories, the Company has a diverse portfolio of globally recognized owned and licensed brand names under which its products are marketed. The Company's products are distributed globally through various distribution channels, including wholesale in countries where it has a physical presence, direct to the consumer through its retail stores and commercial websites and through third-party distributors in countries where the Company does not maintain a physical presence. The Company's products are offered at varying price points to meet the needs of its customers, whether they are value-conscious or luxury oriented. Based on its extensive range of accessory products, brands, distribution channels and price points, the Company is able to target style-conscious consumers across a wide age spectrum on a global basis.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), trade name impairment and restructuring charges. SG&A expenses include selling and distribution expenses primarily consisting of sales and distribution labor costs, sales distribution center and warehouse facility costs, depreciation expense related to sales distribution and warehouse facilities, the four-wall operating costs of the Company’s retail stores, point-of-sale expenses, advertising expenses and art, design and product development labor costs. SG&A also includes general and administrative expenses primarily consisting of administrative support labor and “back office” or support costs such as treasury, legal, information services, accounting, internal audit, human resources, executive management costs and costs associated with stock-based compensation. Restructuring charges include costs to reorganize, refine and optimize the Company’s infrastructure as well as store closure expenses. During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, the SKAGEN® trade name with a carrying amount of $27.3 million was written down to its implied fair value of $21.1 million, resulting in a pre-tax impairment charge of $6.2 million.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS adjusts basic EPS for the effects of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during each period using the treasury stock method.

At the end of the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, approximately 3.4 million and 3.9 million weighted average shares issuable under stock-based awards, respectively, were not included in the diluted EPS calculation because they were antidilutive. The total antidilutive weighted average shares included approximately 0.7 million and 0.9 million weighted average performance-based shares at the end of the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively.
At the end of the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period, approximately 5.2 million and 5.1 million weighted average shares issuable under stock-based awards, respectively, were not included in the diluted EPS calculation because they were antidilutive. The total antidilutive weighted average shares included approximately 1.2 million weighted average performance-based shares at the end of the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period.

Leases. The Company evaluates contractual arrangements at inception to determine if individual agreements are a lease or contain an identifiable lease component as defined by Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). When evaluating contracts to determine appropriate classification and recognition under ASC 842, significant judgment may be necessary to determine, among other criteria, if an embedded leasing arrangement exists, the length of the term, classification as either an operating or financing lease and whether renewal or termination options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.  These assets and liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using our incremental borrowing rate, adjusted for the lease term and lease country, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable.  Lease assets also include any upfront lease payments made and are reduced by lease incentives. Some lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease and they are included in the measurement of the lease assets and lease liabilities if the Company is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised.


10



Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and include certain index-based changes in rent and certain non-lease components such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor to the extent the charges are variable.  Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.
Lease agreements with lease and non-lease components are combined as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets.  The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) ("ASU 2018-15"). ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans ("ASU 2018-14"). ASU 2018-14 removes certain disclosures that are not considered cost beneficial, clarifies certain required disclosures and adds additional disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). ASU 2018-13 eliminates certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, adds new disclosure requirements related to the changes in unrealized gains and losses for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant observable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements and modifies certain disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty for fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments, including trade receivables. The estimate of expected credit losses will require the consideration of historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is still evaluating the effect of adopting ASU 2016-13.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on December 30, 2018, the first day of fiscal 2019, using the modified retrospective approach and accordingly information for periods prior to December 30, 2018 are presented under ASC 840, Leases ("ASC 840"), the predecessor to ASC 842. The Company has elected to use the transition practical expedient. The transition practical expedient allows companies to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption rather than the earliest period presented.
The Company used the package of practical expedients that allows companies to not reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. The Company did not elect to adopt the hindsight practical expedient and therefore maintained the lease terms previously determined under ASC 840.
Adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in recording right-of-use ("ROU") lease assets of $370.3 million which were written down to $327.3 million as a result of $43.0 million of previous store impairment, excluding taxes, and lease liabilities of $390.6 million as of December 30, 2018. The Company recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings of approximately $29.5 million as of December 30, 2018 as a result of previous store impairment and a previous sale leaseback transaction, net of tax effects. Under ASC 840, the gain on the sale leaseback transaction was deferred over the lease term, however under ASC 842 the gain is recognized at the time of sale. Accordingly, a retained earnings adjustment to

11



recognize the remaining gain was recorded upon the adoption of ASC 842. The standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or cash flows. See "Note 14—Leases" for additional lease disclosures.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12. ASU 2017-12 amends and simplifies hedge accounting guidance in order to enable entities to better portray the economics of their risk management activities. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 on the first day of fiscal year 2019. Adoption resulted in $2.8 million and $4.8 million of net gains being recorded in cost of sales for the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively, which would have been recognized in other income (expense) - net under previous accounting guidance.

The tax rate in the Second Quarter is unfavorable as compared to the Prior Year Quarter and the Year To Date Period tax rate is unfavorable to the Prior YTD Period primarily due to a larger amount of favorable discrete items recorded in the Prior Year Quarter and the Prior YTD Period over those recorded in the Second Quarter and in the Year To Date Period.
Beginning in 2018, no tax benefit has been accrued on the U.S. net operating losses (“NOLs”) due to the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law in 2017, whereby certain foreign income inclusions absorb the U.S. NOL, eliminating the availability of any future tax benefit. The Second Quarter and Year To Date Period tax rates are negative due to accrual of income tax expense on entities with positive taxable income against a consolidated net loss.
As of June 29, 2019, the Company's total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, was $39.9 million, $33.4 million of which would favorably impact the effective tax rate in future periods, if recognized. The Company is subject to examinations in various state and foreign jurisdictions for its 2011-2018 tax years, none of which the Company believes are significant, individually or in the aggregate. Tax audit outcomes and timing of tax audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.
The Company has classified uncertain tax positions as long-term income taxes payable, unless such amounts are expected to be settled within twelve months of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had recorded $18.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, for positions that are expected to be settled within the next twelve months. Consistent with its past practice, the Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax overpayments and income tax underpayments in income tax expense and income taxes receivable/payable. At June 29, 2019, the total amount of accrued income tax-related interest and penalties included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $5.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, the Company accrued income tax related interest expense of $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

6. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common and Preferred Stock. The Company has 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, authorized, with 50,453,351 and 49,517,817 shares issued and outstanding at June 29, 2019 and December 29, 2018, respectively. The Company has 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, authorized, with none issued or

14



outstanding at June 29, 2019 or December 29, 2018. Rights, preferences and other terms of preferred stock will be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of issuance.
Common Stock Repurchase Programs. Purchases of the Company’s common stock are made from time to time pursuant to its repurchase programs, subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through the open market. Repurchased shares of common stock are recorded at cost and become authorized but unissued shares which may be issued in the future for general corporate or other purposes. The Company may terminate or limit its stock repurchase program at any time. In the event the repurchased shares are canceled, the Company accounts for retirements by allocating the repurchase price to common stock, additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. The repurchase price allocation is based upon the equity contribution associated with historical issuances. The repurchase programs are conducted pursuant to Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
At June 29, 2019 and December 29, 2018, all treasury stock had been effectively retired. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had $30.0 million of repurchase authorizations remaining under its repurchase program. The Company is currently prohibited by the terms of its Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 15) from making open market repurchases of its common stock and did not repurchase any common stock under its authorized stock repurchase plans during the Second Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period or Prior Year YTD Period.
Controlling and Noncontrolling Interests. The Company has entered into an agreement to purchase the outstanding minority interest shares in Fossil Accessories South Africa Pty. Ltd. (‘‘Fossil South Africa’’), representing the entire noncontrolling interest in the subsidiary. The purchase price is based on variable payments through fiscal year 2021, assuming the put option is exercised by the seller each year. During the Year To Date Period, the Company made payments of $1.0 million towards the purchase price. The present value of the remaining purchase price is $1.8 million as of June 29, 2019. The transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company recorded $0.9 million of the variable consideration in accrued expenses-other and $0.9 million in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets at June 29, 2019.

9. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company reports segment information based on the “management approach”. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments.
The Company manages its business primarily on a geographic basis. The Company’s reportable operating segments are comprised of (i) Americas, (ii) Europe and (iii) Asia. Each reportable operating segment includes sales to wholesale and distributor customers, and sales through Company-owned retail stores and e-commerce activities based on the location of the selling entity. The Americas segment primarily includes sales to customers based in Canada, Latin America and the United States. The Europe segment primarily includes sales to customers based in European countries, the Middle East and Africa. The Asia segment primarily includes sales to customers based in Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. Each reportable operating segment provides similar products and services.
The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on net sales and operating income (loss). Net sales for geographic segments are based on the location of the selling entity. Operating income (loss) for each segment includes net sales to third parties, related cost of sales and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment. Corporate includes peripheral revenue generating activities from factories and intellectual property and general corporate expenses, including certain administrative, legal, accounting, technology support costs, equity compensation costs, payroll costs attributable to executive management, brand management, product development, art, creative/product design, marketing, strategy, compliance and back office supply chain expenses that are not allocated to the various segments because they are managed at the corporate level internally. The Company does not include intercompany transfers between segments for management reporting purposes.
Summary information by operating segment was as follows (in thousands):

10. DERIVATIVES AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Cash Flow Hedges. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are the fluctuations in global currencies that will ultimately be used by non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries to settle future payments of intercompany inventory transactions denominated in U.S. dollars. Specifically, the Company projects future intercompany purchases by its non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries generally over a period of up to 24 months. The Company enters into forward contracts, generally for up to 85% of the forecasted purchases, to manage fluctuations in global currencies that will ultimately be used to settle such U.S. dollar denominated inventory purchases. Additionally, the Company enters into forward contracts to manage fluctuations in Japanese yen exchange rates that will be used to settle future third-party inventory component purchases by a U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiary. Forward contracts represent agreements to exchange the currency of one country for the currency of another country at an agreed-upon settlement date and exchange rate. These forward contracts are designated as single cash flow hedges. Fluctuations in exchange rates will either increase or decrease the Company’s U.S. dollar equivalent cash flows from these inventory transactions, which will affect the Company’s U.S. dollar earnings. Gains or losses on the forward contracts are expected to offset these fluctuations to the extent the cash flows are hedged by the forward contracts.
These forward contracts meet the criteria for hedge accounting, which requires that they represent foreign currency-denominated forecasted transactions in which (i) the operating unit that has the foreign currency exposure is a party to the hedging instrument and (ii) the hedged transaction is denominated in a currency other than the hedging unit’s functional currency.
At the inception of each forward contract designated as a cash flow hedge, the hedging relationship is expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. The Company assesses hedge effectiveness under the critical terms matched method at inception and at least quarterly throughout the life of the hedging relationship. If the critical terms (i.e., amounts, currencies and settlement dates) of the forward contract match the terms of the forecasted transaction, the Company concludes that the hedge is effective. Hedge accounting is discontinued if it is determined that the derivative is not highly effective.
For a derivative instrument that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company records all forward contract hedge assets and liabilities on a gross basis as they do not meet the balance sheet netting criteria because the Company does not have master netting agreements established with the derivative counterparties that would allow for net settlement. Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded at fair value at each balance sheet date and the change in fair value is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within the equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets until such derivative’s gains or losses become realized or the cash flow hedge relationship is terminated.
If the cash flow hedge relationship is terminated, the derivative’s gains or losses that are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are immediately recognized in earnings. There were no gains or losses reclassified into earnings as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges in the Second Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period or Prior Year YTD Period.
As of June 29, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges that were entered into to hedge the future payments of inventory transactions (in millions):

Non-designated Hedges. The Company also periodically enters into forward contracts to manage exchange rate risks associated with certain intercompany transactions and for which the Company does not elect hedge accounting treatment. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had non-designated forward contracts of approximately $0.4 million on 6.3 million rand associated with a South African rand-denominated foreign subsidiary. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in earnings when they occur.
The gains and losses on cash flow hedges that were recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes during the Second Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period and Prior Year YTD Period are set forth below (in thousands):

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.
ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.

The fair values of the Company’s deferred compensation plan assets are based on quoted prices. The deferred compensation plan assets are recorded in intangible and other assets-net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the Company’s forward contracts are based on published quotations of spot currency rates and forward points, which are converted into implied forward currency rates. See “Note 10—Derivatives and Risk Management” for additional disclosures about the forward contracts.
As of June 29, 2019, debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and capital leases, was recorded at cost and had a carrying value of $231.1 million and a fair value of approximately $230.6 million. As of December 29, 2018, the fair value of the Company's debt approximated its carrying amount. The fair value of debt was based on observable market inputs.
During the Year to Date Period, operating lease assets with a carrying amount of $6.9 million and property, plant and equipment-net with a carrying amount of $1.1 million related to retail store leasehold improvements, fixturing and shop-in-shops were written down to a fair value of $3.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively, resulting in impairment charges of $4.2 million.
The fair values of fixed assets related to Company-owned retail stores and operating lease assets were determined using Level 3 inputs. Of the $4.2 million impairment expense, $2.2 million and $0.3 million was recorded in SG&A in the Europe and Americas segment, respectively, and $1.3 million and $0.4 million was recorded in restructuring charges in the Americas and Europe segment, respectively.
The fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to Fossil South Africa was determined using Level 3 inputs. See "Note 6—Stockholders' Equity" for additional disclosures about the equity transaction. The contingent consideration is based on Fossil South Africa's projected earnings and dividends through fiscal year 2020 with the final payments expected the following year. A discount rate of 14% was used to calculate the present value of the contingent consideration. The present value of the contingent consideration liability was valued at $1.8 million as of June 29, 2019.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. The Company is occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any currently pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material effect on the business or financial condition of the Company. 

14. LEASES
The Company's leases consist primarily of retail space, offices, warehouses, distribution centers and vehicles. The Company determines if an agreement contains a lease at inception based on the Company's right to the economic benefits of the leased assets and its right to direct the use of the leased asset. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset, and ROU liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date adjusted for the lease term and lease country to determine the present value of the lease payments.
Some leases include one or more options to renew at the Company's discretion, with renewal terms that can extend the lease from one to ten additional years. The renewal options are not included in the measurement of ROU assets and ROU liabilities unless the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the optional renewal periods. Short-term leases are leases having a term of twelve months or less. The Company does not record a related lease asset or liability for such leases. The Company has certain leases containing lease and non-lease components which are accounted for as a single lease component. The Company has certain leases agreements where lease payments are based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. The variable portion of these lease payments is not included in the Company's lease liabilities. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any significant restrictions or covenants other than those that are customary in such arrangements.

15. DEBT ACTIVITY
On January 29, 2018, the Company, as U.S. borrower, and certain of its foreign subsidiaries, as non-U.S. borrowers, entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides for (i) revolving credit loans in the amount of $325 million, subject to a borrowing base (as described below), (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), with an up to $45.0 million subfacility for letters of credit, and (ii) a term loan made to the Company in the amount of $425 million (the "Term Loan Facility"). The Credit Agreement expires and is due and payable on December 31, 2020.

Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility and any letters of credit are subject to a borrowing base equal to, (a) with respect to Fossil Group Inc., the sum of (i) 85% of eligible U.S. accounts receivable and 90% of net U.S. credit card receivables (less any dilution reserve), (ii) the lesser of (A) 65% of the lower of cost or market value of eligible U.S. finished good inventory and (B) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible U.S. finished good inventory, minus (iii) the aggregate amount of reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable business judgment from the perspective of a secured asset-based lender; and (b) with respect to each non-U.S. borrower, the sum of (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable of the non-U.S. borrowers (less any dilution reserve) and (ii) the least of (A) 65% of the lower of cost or market value of eligible foreign finished goods inventory of the non-U.S. borrowers, (B) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible foreign finished goods inventory of the non-U.S. borrowers, and (C) $185,000,000 minus (iii) the aggregate amount of reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable business judgment from the perspective of a secured asset-based lender.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company and all of its domestic subsidiaries entered into a Collateral Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Company and such subsidiaries granted liens on all or substantially all of their assets in order to secure the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other loan documents (the “Obligations”). Additionally, all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries entered into a Guaranty Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such subsidiaries guarantee the payment and performance of the Obligations. Additionally, Fossil Group Europe and the other non-U.S. borrowers from time to time party to the Credit

28



Agreement are required to enter into security instruments with respect to all or substantially all of their assets that can be pledged under applicable local law.

Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest per annum at the (a) LIBOR rate plus the applicable interest margin, (b) the daily LIBOR rate plus the applicable interest margin or (c) the base rate plus the applicable interest margin. The applicable interest margin varies from 4.00% to 5.00% for LIBOR rate loans and daily LIBOR rate loans and 1.50% to 3.00% for base rate loans and is based on the Company’s average daily excess availability under the Revolving Credit Facility for the most recently ended calendar quarter, which is an amount equal to (a) the lesser of (i) $325 million and (ii) the aggregate borrowing base minus (b) the amount of all outstanding borrowings and letter of credit obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility, for each day during the applicable period divided by the number of days in such period. The applicable interest margin will increase by 1% per annum on each anniversary of the closing of the Credit Agreement. The base rate loans under the Revolving Credit Facility are available only to the Company and Fossil Group Europe and loans denominated in U.S. dollars.

Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the LIBOR rate plus 7% prior to January 28, 2019, which increased to the LIBOR rate plus 8% on January 29, 2019 and will increase to the LIBOR rate plus 9% on January 29, 2020 and thereafter or (b) the base rate plus 5.5% prior to January 28, 2019, which increased to the base rate plus 6.5% on January 29, 2019 and will increase to the base rate plus 7.5% on January 29, 2020 and thereafter.

The Company is required to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan Facility in the amount of $64.1 million on March 31, 2020 and the outstanding balance on December 31, 2020. Additionally, loans under the Credit Agreement may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, in minimum principal amounts of (a) $1.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, with respect to a base rate loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, (b) $5.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, with respect to a LIBOR rate loan or a daily LIBOR rate loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, and (c) $5.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, with respect to the Term Loan Facility. Loans under the Credit Agreement must be repaid with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance and condemnation events, certain debt and equity issuances and certain cash dividends received from the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company may permanently reduce the revolving credit commitment at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, in a minimum aggregate principal amount of not less than $3.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof.

The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused amounts of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears, of 0.5% on the average daily unused portion of the overall commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility.
    
The repayment obligation under the Credit Agreement can be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default, including the failure to pay principal or interest, a material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty, violation of covenants, cross-default, change in control, bankruptcy events, failure of a loan document provision, certain Employee Retirement Income Security Act events and material judgments.

Financial covenants governing the Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain (a) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio measured quarterly on a rolling twelve-month basis of 1.15 to 1.00 if the Company’s quarter-end balances of cash and cash equivalents plus the excess availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is less than $200 million; (b) a maximum leverage ratio measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period of four fiscal quarters ending on such date of (i) 3.75 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter through September 28, 2019 and (ii)  3.5 to 1.0 thereafter; (c) a minimum trailing twelve-month EBITDA tested quarterly of $110 million; (d) a minimum liquidity covenant of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents plus available and unused capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility equal to $160 million; and (e) maximum capital expenditures of $35 million per year. Additionally, the Company is restricted from making open market repurchases of its common stock.
The Company had no borrowings or payments under the Term Loan Facility during the Second Quarter and net payments of $170.2 million during the Year To Date Period. The Company had no borrowings or payments under the Revolving Credit Facility during the Second Quarter or Year To Date Period. Amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility were reduced by any amounts outstanding under standby letters of credit. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had available borrowing capacity of $220.7 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company incurred approximately $6.0 million and $12.5 million of interest expense related to the Term Loan Facility during the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively. The Company did not incur interest expense related to the Revolving Credit Facility during the Second Quarter or Year To Date Period. The Company incurred approximately $1.0 million and $1.9 million of interest expense related to the amortization of debt issuance costs during the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively. At June 29, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants related to all the Company's credit facilities.

16. RESTRUCTURING
The Company implemented a multi-year restructuring program that began in fiscal year 2016 called New World Fossil ("NWF 1.0"). As part of NWF 1.0, the Company targets to improve operating profit and support sales growth through a leaner infrastructure and an enhanced business model. The Company is working to achieve greater efficiencies from production to distribution through activities such as organizational changes, reducing its overall product assortment, optimizing its base cost structure and consolidating facilities. The Company also intends to build a quicker and more responsive operating platform. The Company is reducing its retail footprint to reflect the evolving shopping habits of today's consumer, which results in restructuring costs, such as store impairment, lease exit obligations and termination fees and accelerated depreciation. The Company expects to spend up to $20 million in the second half of fiscal year 2019 as it completes its NWF 1.0 program. NWF 1.0 restructuring charges of approximately $10.8 million, $46.6 million and $48.2 million were recorded during the Year To Date period, fiscal year 2018 and fiscal year 2017, respectively.

The following tables show a rollforward of the accrued liability related to the Company’s NWF 1.0 restructuring plan (in thousands):

Additionally, during the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company launched a new restructuring program, New World Fossil 2.0 (“NWF 2.0”), which is focused on optimizing the Company’s operating structure to be more efficient, with faster decision-making and a more customer-centric focus. In addition to optimizing the way the Company goes to market, the Company is also pursuing additional gross margin expansion opportunities. The Company is taking a zero based budgeting approach to adjust its business model to enable more investment in digital capabilities and marketing, move closer to the consumer and react more quickly to the ever-evolving consumer shopping patterns.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Fossil Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2019 (the “Second Quarter” and “Year To Date Period,” respectively) as compared to the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2018 (the “Prior Year Quarter” and “Prior Year YTD Period,” respectively). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto.
General
We are a global design, marketing and distribution company that specializes in consumer fashion accessories. Our principal offerings include an extensive line of men’s and women’s fashion watches and jewelry, handbags, small leather goods, belts and sunglasses. In the watch and jewelry product categories, we have a diverse portfolio of globally recognized owned and licensed brand names under which our products are marketed. Our products are distributed globally through various distribution channels, including wholesale in countries where we have a physical presence, direct to the consumer through our retail stores and commercial websites and through third party distributors in countries where we do not maintain a physical presence. Our products are offered at varying price points to meet the needs of our customers, whether they are value conscious or luxury oriented. Based on our extensive range of accessory products, brands, distribution channels and price points, we are able to target style conscious consumers across a wide age spectrum on a global basis.
Domestically, we sell our products through a diversified distribution network that includes department stores, specialty retail locations, specialty watch and jewelry stores, Company-owned retail and outlet stores, mass market stores and through our FOSSIL® website and third party websites. Our wholesale customer base includes, among others, Amazon, Best Buy, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Kohl’s, Macy’s, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, Target and Wal-Mart. In the United States, our network of Company-owned stores included 61 retail stores located in premier retail sites and 102 outlet stores located in major outlet malls as of June 29, 2019. In addition, we offer an extensive collection of our FOSSIL brand products on our website, www.fossil.com, as well as proprietary and licensed watch and jewelry brands through other managed and affiliated websites.
Internationally, our products are sold to department stores, specialty retail stores and specialty watch and jewelry stores in approximately 150 countries worldwide through 23 Company-owned foreign sales subsidiaries and through a network of approximately 70 independent distributors. Internationally, our network of Company-owned stores included 165 retail stores and 121 outlet stores as of June 29, 2019. Our products are also sold through licensed and franchised FOSSIL retail stores, retail concessions operated by us and kiosks in certain international markets. In addition, we offer an extensive collection of our FOSSIL brand products on our websites in certain countries.
Our business is subject to economic cycles, retail industry conditions and the impact of tariffs on our products. Purchases of discretionary fashion accessories, such as our watches, handbags, sunglasses and other products, tend to decline during recessionary periods when disposable income is low and consumers are hesitant to use available credit. In addition, acts of terrorism, acts of war and military action both in the U.S. and abroad can have a significant effect on economic conditions and may negatively affect our ability to procure our products from manufacturers for sale to our customers. In 2018, new tariffs were imposed on a list of products totaling $200 billion which are imported from China and impacted certain of our products. On May 10, 2019, the Trump Administration increased these tariffs to 25% ad valorem. The current U.S. presidential administration recently indicated it may also impose tariffs on additional products potentially including both traditional watches and smart watches. It is difficult to accurately estimate the impact on our business of this or similar tariff actions. However, assuming no offsets resulting from price increases, sourcing changes, or other changes to regulatory rulings, all of which are currently under review, the estimated gross exposure from an additional 10% tariff recognized in the second half of fiscal year 2019 is approximately $5 to $10 million. Any significant declines in general economic conditions, additional tariffs on our products, public safety concerns or uncertainties regarding future economic prospects that affect the competitiveness of our products or consumer spending habits could have a material adverse effect on consumer purchases of our products.

Our business is also subject to the risks inherent in global sourcing supply. Certain key components in our products come from limited sources of supply, which exposes us to potential supply shortages that could disrupt the manufacture and sale of our products. Any interruption or delay in the supply of key components could significantly harm our ability to meet scheduled product deliveries to our customers and cause us to lose sales. Interruptions or delays in supply may be caused by a number of factors that are outside of our and our contract manufacturers’ control.
Future sales and earnings growth are also contingent upon our ability to anticipate and respond to changing fashion trends and consumer preferences in a timely manner while continuing to develop innovative products in the respective markets in which we compete. As is typical with new products, including our lines of connected accessories, market acceptance of new

32



designs and products that we may introduce is subject to uncertainty. In addition, we generally make decisions regarding product designs several months in advance of the time when consumer acceptance can be measured. We believe that we can drive long-term growth with brand building, innovation through design, fashion and new materials and introducing new technology and functionality into our accessories, while continuing to provide a solid value proposition to consumers across all of our brands.
Our international operations are subject to many risks, including foreign currency fluctuations and risks related to the global economy. Generally, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar against currencies of other countries in which we operate will reduce the translated amounts of sales and operating expenses of our subsidiaries, which results in a reduction of our consolidated operating income. We manage these currency risks by using derivative instruments. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are the future payments by non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries of intercompany inventory transactions denominated in U.S. dollars. We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts ("forward contracts") to manage fluctuations in global currencies that will ultimately be used to settle such U.S. dollar denominated inventory purchases.
For a more complete discussion of the risks facing our business, see “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018 and "Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors" of this Quarter Report on Form 10-Q.
Results of Operations
Executive Summary. During the Second Quarter, net sales decreased 13% (11% in constant currency), as compared to the Prior Year Quarter. We generated a net loss of $7.3 million in the Second Quarter as compared to a net loss of $7.8 million in the Prior Year Quarter. Overall, sales for the Second Quarter were in line with our expectations, though down from the Prior Year Quarter. Although top-line sales growth remains challenging, we are making solid progress on our key strategic initiatives such as our China and India growth plans, our direct to consumer expansion, our connected product performance and our investment in more advanced e-commerce and marketing cloud platforms. The watch and accessories businesses continue to evolve rapidly, and consumer shopping patterns continue to shift. Those dynamics, particularly in our wholesale channels, continue to put pressure on our sales. However, we are seeing some underlying positive signs in parts of the business such as the contraction in our core sales improving sequentially from the first quarter of this year and our Asia business continuing to perform well with double-digit core sales growth in the Second Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter.
As we previously disclosed, we have four overarching priorities. First, we are focused on improving our overall profitability. Our second key objective is to continue to focus on innovation and design in the watch category. Our third priority is maximizing sales growth, and fourth, transforming our business model. Our New World Fossil ("NWF") program continues to drive meaningful improvements to profitability, both within gross margin and in the cost structure. We expect NWF 1.0 be completed in 2019 and will have delivered $200 million of run-rate profitability improvements over a three year period. The program has been critical to our ability to improve profitability while also funding investments such as digital marketing capabilities and product innovation. Our NWF 2.0 - Transform to Grow ("NWF 2.0") program will be even more critical to our ability to invest in the business and improve profitability. As disruption continues across retail and consumer shopping behavior evolves, there are significant opportunities to capture market share in the growing watch market. Capitalizing on those market share opportunities will require investments and a reallocation of resources which we will fund through NWF 2.0.

Within the NWF 2.0 program, we see significant opportunities to drive value within our revenue management, supply chain, and procurement processes. We are also taking a zero-based budgeting approach across the organization in order to rework our business model and create organizational and operational efficiencies. All of these enhancements will allow us to invest more in direct to consumer and digital capabilities while streamlining our business model to move closer to the consumer and react more quickly to trends. There is much work still ahead of us on our NWF 2.0 program but the initial work streams continue to show a potential for significant profit improvement and are generally consistent with the level we achieved in NWF 1.0.

While we remain focused on profitability, delivering new product innovations while engaging consumers in unique and creative ways is essential in this disruptive environment. New products will be hitting the market this fall and holiday season across our portfolio of brands. Within the connected category, we continue to expand on our line-up of products, with a focus on fashion, functionality and wellness features. In addition, the underlying technology is expanding even more with our Gen 5 product, with improved chipsets, speaker capabilities to better support Google Assistant, extended battery life, and enhanced proprietary interface for iOS users, including tethered calls for iPhones, which builds on our current Android phone capabilities. These new technology enhancements combined with innovative fashion designs will build on our current Gen 4 product and provide additional smart watch functionality for consumers, regardless of their phone choice. Within the traditional category,

33



our design teams are launching new design concepts based on trends we are seeing in the marketplace. We are also continuing to expand our use of limited edition and exclusives across all brands, as consumers are responding to more innovation and personalization. Our new e-commerce and marketing technology platform is expected to launch in the third quarter this year and will enable our ability to drive more consumer engagement with our new, innovative products. This platform will provide better insights and tools to reach our consumers in a more targeted manner across direct and wholesale channels. We continue to see favorable consumer response to our digital marketing initiatives, and these new tools will accelerate our ability to reach the consumer directly.

During the Second Quarter, sales of FOSSIL branded products decreased 11% (9% in constant currency), as compared to the Prior Year Quarter with declines across all major product categories. FOSSIL brand watch sales decreased 9% (6% in constant currency) during the Second Quarter. Our multi-brand global watch portfolio declined 11% (8% in constant currency) during the Second Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter, with traditional watch sales improving from the double-digit declines experienced in the past several fiscal quarters to a high single digit decline in the Second Quarter. While most brands in the portfolio decreased, EMPORIO ARMANI posted strong growth during the Second Quarter, driven by third party e-commerce and wholesale growth in China. Connected sales decreased moderately during the Second Quarter largely due to reduced liquidation levels as compared to the Prior Year Quarter. FOSSIL connected watches grew modestly despite these challenges. For all brands, excluding the negative impacts of prior year liquidations, sales of newer generation connected display products increased double-digits during the Second Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter. During the Second Quarter, our connected watch business delivered $85 million in sales, representing 21% of total watch sales for the period.
Global comparable retail sales, including our stores and our own e-commerce, were negative 4% for the Second Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter, as positive e-commerce comparable sales were more than offset by comparable sales declines in our retail stores.
During the Second Quarter, our gross profit margin rate decreased 70 basis points to 52.9% compared to 53.6% in the Prior Year Quarter. The gross margin contraction was primarily driven by an unfavorable currency impact of approximately 90 basis points. In addition, factory cost absorption and royalty costs on lower sales volumes increased product costs. These additional costs were offset by favorable regional and product mix from higher margin Asia sales, benefits from our NWF initiatives and decreased off-price sales mix with improved margins. Total operating expenses, including $7 million of restructuring expenses, declined 14% in the Second Quarter, compared to the Prior Year Quarter. During the Second Quarter, our financial performance resulted in a net loss of $0.15 per diluted share and included NWF restructuring charges of $0.11 per diluted share. The Prior Year Quarter resulted in a net loss of $0.16 per diluted share and included restructuring charges of $0.23 per diluted share and non-cash intangible asset impairment charges of $0.10 per diluted share. Currencies, including both the translation impact on operating earnings and the impact of foreign currency hedging contracts, unfavorably impacted earnings in the Second Quarter by $0.06 per diluted share.
Constant Currency Financial Information
As a multinational enterprise, we are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The translation of the operations of our foreign-based entities from their local currencies into U.S. dollars is sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and can have a significant impact on our reported financial results. In general, our overall financial results are affected positively by a weaker U.S. dollar and are affected negatively by a stronger U.S. dollar as compared to the foreign currencies in which we conduct our business.
As a result, in addition to presenting financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), our discussions contain references to constant currency financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. To calculate net sales on a constant currency basis, net sales for the current year for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average rates during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. We present constant currency information to provide investors with a basis to evaluate how our underlying business performed, excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The constant currency financial information presented herein should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We provide constant currency financial information and the most directly comparable GAAP measure where applicable.

Quarterly Periods Ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018
Consolidated Net Sales. Net sales decreased $75.2 million or 13.0% (10.6% in constant currency), for the Second Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter. During the Second Quarter, watch sales decreased $49.7 million or 10.7% (8.3% in constant currency), our leathers products decreased $15.3 million or 22.5% (20.8% in constant currency), and our jewelry business decreased $12.3 million or 37.2% (34.1% in constant currency). Second Quarter sales results were negatively impacted by store closures, less off-price and liquidation sales and licensed brand exits. Excluding store closures and business exits, our core sales declined high single-digits, primarily driven by our traditional wholesale and off-price channels. Asia wholesale sales increased double-digits driven mainly by emerging markets in China and India. While our Asia business is quickly gaining scale, the sales growth is not yet large enough to overcome the continued challenges in our traditional wholesale business in our mature markets in the Americas and Europe. Our direct business, while continuing to contract mainly due to store closures, improved to a moderate single-digit decline as compared to a double-digit decline in the 2019 first quarter.
Net sales information by product category is summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

Americas Net Sales. Americas net sales decreased $55.8 million or 20.0% (19.8% in constant currency), during the Second Quarter in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter, improving from a 23.6% decrease in the 2019 first quarter. The sequential quarter-over-quarter improvement was driven by improved retail performance and lessening impacts of last year liquidations in our department store channels partially offset by lower sales in our off-price channels. The improved retail performance was driven by comparable retail store improvements and gaining traction on our third party e-commerce strategy. During the Second Quarter, watches decreased $36.5 million or 16.5% (16.3% in constant currency), our leathers business decreased $9.2 million or 21.5% (21.0% in constant currency), while our jewelry category decreased $8.9 million or 84.8% (83.8% in constant currency). In the region, sales declined in the U.S. and Mexico, while sales in Canada increased. Comparable retail sales, including our own retail stores and own e-commerce, decreased moderately in the region.

Europe Net Sales. Europe net sales decreased $28.7 million or 16.3% (11.8% in constant currency) during the Second Quarter in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter, improving from the 18.8% decrease in the 2019 first quarter on a constant currency basis. Watches decreased $22.3 million or 16.3% (11.8% in constant currency), our leathers business declined $3.7 million or 28.7% (24.0% in constant currency), and jewelry declined $2.8 million or 13.2% (8.5% in constant currency). Across the Eurozone, sales were down in most major markets with the greatest declines in the U.K., the distributor markets and Germany while Italy sales increased modestly. While sales continued to contract in Germany during the Second Quarter, sales performance improved double-digits on a sequential quarter-over-quarter basis driven by improvements in the wholesale channel. Comparable retail sales declined moderately, with comparable retail store decreases partially offset by strong e-commerce growth.

Asia Net Sales. Net sales in Asia increased $5.4 million or 4.5% (increased 9.0% in constant currency) driven by the wholesale channel. During the Second Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter, our watch category increased $9.0 million or 8.6% (13.4% in constant currency), while our leathers category decreased $2.4 million or 19.7% (16.4% in constant currency), and our jewelry category decreased $0.8 million or 53.3% (46.7% in constant currency). Excluding store closures and business exits, our underlying core sales in Asia grew low double digits. For the Second Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter, EMPORIO ARMANI traditional watches posted strong double-digit growth while Fossil watches increased moderately with sales growth in both the connected and traditional watch categories. This sales growth was partially offset by the MARC JACOBS licensed brand exit. Strong growth momentum continued in China and India, primarily driven by third party e-commerce and wholesale growth, while Hong Kong also had sales growth. Comparable retail sales, including our stores and our own e-commerce, decreased slightly, with positive comparable retail sales in watches more than offset by declines in other categories. Strong e-commerce growth was more than offset by comparable retail store declines.

During the Second Quarter, we closed seven stores and opened two new stores.
Both stores and our own e-commerce sites are included in comparable retail sales in the thirteenth month of operation. Stores that experience a gross square footage increase of 10% or more due to an expansion and/or relocation are removed from the comparable retail sales base, but are included in total sales. These stores are returned to the comparable retail sales base in the thirteenth month following the expansion and/or relocation. Comparable retail sales also exclude the effects of foreign currency fluctuations.
Gross Profit. Gross profit of $265.1 million in the Second Quarter decreased 14.2% in comparison to $309.0 million in the Prior Year Quarter. Gross profit margin rate decreased 70 basis points to 52.9% in the Second Quarter compared to 53.6% in the Prior Year Quarter. The gross margin contraction was primarily driven by an unfavorable currency impact of approximately 90 basis points. In addition, factory cost absorption and royalty costs on lower sales volumes increased product costs. These additional costs were offset by favorable region and product mix from higher margin Asia sales, benefits from our New World Fossil initiatives and decreased off-price sales mix with improved margins.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses in the Second Quarter decreased by $44.6 million, or 14.5%, to $263.4 million compared to $308.0 million in the Prior Year Quarter. In the Second Quarter, selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $31.1 million lower compared to the Prior Year Quarter, primarily as a result of lower retail store expenses given the significant number of stores we have closed since the Prior Year Quarter and corporate and regional infrastructure reductions driven by our NWF initiatives. Restructuring costs under our NWF initiative were $7.3 million, related to employee costs, store closings and professional services in the Second Quarter while the Prior Year Quarter included $14.5 million in restructuring costs and $6.2 million in non-cash intangible asset impairment charges. The translation of foreign-denominated expenses during the Second Quarter decreased operating expenses by approximately $6.7 million as a result of the stronger U.S. dollar. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 51.1% in the Second Quarter as compared to 49.8% in the Prior Year Quarter.
Operating Income (Loss). Operating income (loss) improved to income of $1.7 million in the Second Quarter as compared to income of $1.0 million in the Prior Year Quarter. SG&A expenses decreased due to lower store costs due to store closures and corporate and regional infrastructure reductions. The decline in gross profit was more than offset by decreased operating expenses. As a percentage of net sales, operating margin (loss) was 0.3% in the Second Quarter compared to 0.2% in the Prior Year Quarter. Operating margin rate in the Second Quarter included a negative impact of approximately 110 basis points due to changes in foreign currencies.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $3.7 million during the Second Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter as a result of a smaller borrowing base.
Other Income (Expense)-Net. During the Second Quarter, other income (expense)-net was a net income of $0.5 million in comparison to a net expense of $0.6 million in the Prior Year Quarter. This change was primarily driven by more favorable transactional currency gains and losses compared to the Prior Year Quarter.
Provision for Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the Second Quarter was $1.4 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of (28.0)%. For the Prior Year Quarter, the income tax benefit was $3.4 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 31.8%. The effective tax rate in the Second Quarter was unfavorable to the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to a larger amount of favorable discrete items recorded in the Prior Year Quarter over those recorded in the Second Quarter. The Second Quarter tax rate was negative due to the accrual of income tax expense on entities with positive taxable income against a consolidated net loss combined with the impact of the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law in 2017, whereby certain foreign income inclusions absorb the U.S. Net Operating Loss ("NOL"), effectively resulting in no tax benefit derived on the loss.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. Second Quarter net income (loss) attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. was a loss of $7.3 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in comparison to a loss of $7.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the Prior Year Quarter. Diluted earnings (loss) per share in the Second Quarter included restructuring expenses of $0.11 per diluted share. The Prior Year Quarter diluted earnings (loss) per share included restructuring expenses of $0.23 per diluted share and non-cash intangible asset impairment charges of $0.10 per diluted share. Currency fluctuations decreased diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.06 during the Second Quarter.
 
Fiscal Year To Date Periods Ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018
Consolidated Net Sales. Net sales decreased $179.0 million or 15.6% (12.9% in constant currency), for the Year To Date Period as compared to the Prior Year YTD Period. Global watch sales decreased $131.1 million or 14.4% (11.6% in constant currency). Our leathers category decreased $30.7 million or 22.4% (20.3% in constant currency) and our jewelry product category decreased $23.0 million or 30.7% (27.2% in constant currency) during the Year To Date Period as compared to the Prior Year YTD Period. While we experienced declines in all major product categories, our most significant declines were in wholesale watches in the Americas and Europe. Year To Date sales results were negatively impacted by store closures, less off-price and liquidation sales and licensed brand exits. Global comparable retail sales declined moderately for the Year To Date Period, with negative comparable store sales partially offset by e-commerce growth.

In the Year To Date Period, the translation of foreign-based net sales into U.S. dollars decreased reported net sales by approximately $31.6 million, including unfavorable impacts of $18.6 million, $11.3 million and $1.7 million in our Europe, Asia and Americas segments, respectively, compared to the Prior Year YTD Period.

Americas Net Sales. For the Year To Date Period, Americas net sales decreased $114.4 million or 21.7% (21.4% in constant currency), compared to the Prior Year YTD Period. During the Year To Date Period, watches decreased $83.9 million or 20.1% (19.8% in constant currency), leathers decreased $16.7 million or 20.6% (20.1% in constant currency), while jewelry declined $11.7 million or 52.0% (52.4% in constant currency). During the Year To Date Period, sales declined in most brands in our watch portfolio, including BURBERRY and MARC JACOBS due to the termination of these licenses. Geographically, sales declines in the U.S. and Mexico were slightly offset by constant currency sales growth in Canada. Both wholesale and direct channel sales decreased during the Year To Date Period, with moderate growth in our e-commerce business partially offsetting the negative impact of store closures. Comparable retail sales decreased moderately in the region, with positive comparable sales in our e-commerce business more than offset by negative comparable sales in our full price and outlet stores.

Europe Net Sales. For the Year To Date Period, Europe net sales decreased $77.3 million or 20.5% (15.6% in constant currency), compared to the Prior Year YTD Period. Our watches category declined $56.9 million or 19.8% (14.9% in constant currency), jewelry declined $10.5 million or 21.1% (16.3% in constant currency), and our leathers category decreased $10.4 million or 33.5% (28.7% in constant currency). During the Year To Date Period, most of the brands in the portfolio declined, driven by weakness in the wholesale channel and retail store closures. Sales were down in all markets, most notably in the United Kingdom and Germany. Comparable retail sales were moderately negative during the Year To Date Period, with positive comparable sales in e-commerce more than offset by negative comparable sales in our store concepts.

Asia Net Sales. For the Year To Date Period, Asia net sales increased $4.4 million or 1.8% (6.6% in constant currency), compared to the Prior Year YTD Period. Watch sales increased $9.5 million or 4.6% (9.6% in constant currency), while leathers decreased $3.5 million or 13.9% (10.4% in constant currency) and jewelry decreased $0.8 million or 28.6% (28.6% in constant currency). In our watch portfolio, we had strong sales growth in EMPORIO ARMANI products and modest growth in FOSSIL while most other brands declined. Year To Date sales were negatively impacted by the termination of the MARC JACOBS and BURBERRY licenses. Within the region we continued to have strong sales growth in China and India. For the Year To Date Period, comparable retail sales decreased moderately with positive comparable sales in our e-commerce business offset by negative comparable sales in our stores.

Gross Profit. For the Year To Date Period, gross profit margin increased 100 basis points to 53.1% compared to 52.1% in the Prior Year YTD Period. The increased gross profit margin was driven by a favorable regional sales mix, fewer off-price sales and benefits from our New World Fossil initiatives partially offset by an unfavorable foreign currency impact of approximately 70 basis points in the Year To Date Period. Additionally, factory cost absorption and royalty costs on lower sales volumes increased product costs.
Operating Expenses. For the Year To Date Period, total operating expenses decreased to $531.3 million compared to $624.0 million in the Prior Year YTD Period. SG&A expenses were lower compared to the Prior Year YTD Period mainly due to lower store costs due to store closures and corporate and regional infrastructure reductions. During the Year To Date Period, we incurred restructuring costs of $17.5 million under our NWF 1.0 and NWF 2.0 initiatives compared with restructuring costs of $35.9 million in the Prior Year YTD Period. The translation of foreign-denominated expenses during the Year To Date Period decreased operating expenses by approximately $15.5 million as a result of the stronger U.S. dollar. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 53.2% in the Year To Date Period as compared to 50.8% in the Prior Year YTD Period.
Operating Income (Loss). Operating income (loss) improved to a loss of $18.3 million in the Year To Date Period as compared to a loss of $27.3 million in the Prior Year YTD Period. Operating expenses were lower due to lower store costs due to store closures, corporate and regional infrastructure reductions, and lower restructuring costs. The Prior Year YTD Period was also negatively impacted by non-cash intangible asset impairment charges of $6.2 million. The operating expense reduction

40



and an improved gross margin rate were largely offset by gross profit decreases due to lower sales volume. As a percentage of net sales, operating margin was (1.9)% in the Year To Date Period as compared to (2.4)% in the Prior Year YTD Period and was negatively impacted by approximately 90 basis points due to changes in foreign currencies.
Operating income (loss) by segment is summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $6.3 million during the Year To Date Period as a result of a smaller borrowing base.
Other Income (Expense)-Net. During the Year To Date Period, other income (expense)-net increased favorably by $28.9 million to net other income of $26.4 million in comparison to net other expense of $2.4 million in the Prior Year YTD Period. This change was primarily driven by a $21.6 million gain on the sale of intellectual property to Google and net foreign currency gains during the Year To Date Period as compared to net losses in the Prior Year YTD Period.
Provision for Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the Year To Date Period was $11.1 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of (151.0)%. The effective tax rate in the Year To Date Period was unfavorable to the Prior YTD Period primarily due to a larger amount of favorable discrete items recorded in the Prior YTD Period over those recorded in the Year To Date Period. The Year To Date Period tax rate was negative due to the accrual of income tax expense on entities with positive taxable income against a consolidated Year To Date Period loss combined with the impact of the GILTI provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law in 2017, whereby certain foreign income inclusions absorb the U.S. NOL, effectively resulting in no tax benefit derived on the loss. Furthermore, for entities in a loss position, the Company has recorded valuation allowances on the deferred tax assets and the NOLs.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. For the Year To Date Period, net income (loss) attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. improved to a loss $19.6 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in comparison to a loss of $56.1 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, in the Prior Year YTD Period. Operating expenses were lower due to lower store costs due to store closures, corporate and regional infrastructure reductions, and lower restructuring costs. The Prior Year YTD Period was also negatively impacted by non-cash intangible asset impairment charges of $6.2 million. This operating expense reduction and an improved gross margin rate were largely offset by gross profit decreases due to decreased sales volume. The Company also benefited from a $21.6 million gain on the sale of intellectual property to Google in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Diluted earnings per share in the Year To Date Period, as compared to the Prior Year YTD Period, decreased $0.14 per diluted share due to the currency impact of a stronger U.S. dollar.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash and cash equivalents balance at the end of the Second Quarter was $226.6 million, including $206.8 million held in banks outside the U.S., in comparison to cash and cash equivalents of $241.8 million at the end of the Prior Year Quarter and $403.4 million at the end of fiscal year 2018. Historically, our business operations have not required substantial cash during the first several months of our fiscal year. Generally, starting in the third quarter, our cash needs begin to increase, typically reaching a peak in the September-November time frame as we increase inventory levels in advance of the holiday season. Our quarterly cash requirements are also impacted by debt repayments, restructuring charges, strategic investments such as acquisitions and other capital expenditures. We believe cash flows from operations combined with existing cash on hand and amounts available under our credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our cash needs for the next twelve months.
For the Year To Date Period, we had an operating cash flow deficit of $26.1 million. A net loss of $18.4 million and an increase in working capital items of $69.5 million was partially offset by net non-cash items of $61.7 million. We had net debt payments of $169.8 million and capital expenditures of $10.5 million.

41



Accounts receivable, net of allowances, decreased by 0.2% to $204.2 million at the end of the Second Quarter compared to $204.7 million at the end of the Prior Year Quarter. Days sales outstanding for our wholesale businesses for the Second Quarter increased to 50 days compared to 44 days in the Prior Year Quarter as a result of not participating in early payment discount programs in the Americas as terms were not economically attractive this year and a shift in customer mix in Europe.
Inventory at the end of the Second Quarter was $460.3 million, which decreased by 7.5% from the end of the Prior Year Quarter ending inventory balance of $497.8 million, driven by prudent sku management and aggressive liquidation of excess and older generation products.
At the end of the Second Quarter, we had net working capital of $488.0 million compared to net working capital of $561.8 million at the end of the Prior Year Quarter. At the end of the Second Quarter, we had $66.4 million of short-term borrowings and $162.0 million in long-term debt.
For fiscal year 2019, we expect total capital expenditures to be approximately $30 million. Of this amount, we expect approximately 55% will be for technology and facilities maintenance, approximately 25% will be for retail store renovations and enhancements, and approximately 20% for strategic growth, including investments in global concessions and technology. Our capital expenditure budget and allocation to the foregoing investments are estimates and are subject to change. We believe that cash flows from operations combined with existing cash on hand and amounts available under our credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs and planned capital expenditures for the next twelve months.

On January 29, 2018, we and certain of our foreign subsidiaries, as non-U.S. borrowers, entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides for (i) revolving credit loans in the amount of $325 million, subject to a borrowing base (as described below) (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), with an up to $45.0 million subfacility for letters of credit, and (ii) a term loan in the amount of $425 million (the "Term Loan Facility").

Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility and any letters of credit are subject to a borrowing base equal to, (a) with respect to Fossil Group Inc., the sum of (i) 85% of eligible U.S. accounts receivable and 90% of net U.S. credit card receivables (less any dilution reserve), (ii) the lesser of (A) 65% of the lower of cost or market value of eligible U.S. finished good inventory and (B) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible U.S. finished good inventory, minus (iii) the aggregate amount of reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable business judgment from the perspective of a secured asset-based lender; and (b) with respect to each non-U.S. borrower, the sum of (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable of the non-U.S. borrowers (less any dilution reserve) and (ii) the least of (A) 65% of the lower of cost or market value of eligible foreign finished goods inventory of the non-U.S. borrowers, (B) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible foreign finished goods inventory of the non-U.S. borrowers, and (C) $185,000,000 minus (iii) the aggregate amount of reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable business judgment from the perspective of a secured asset-based lender.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, we and all of our domestic subsidiaries entered into a Collateral Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which we and our subsidiaries granted liens on all or substantially all of our assets in order to secure our obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other loan documents (the “Obligations”). Additionally, all of our domestic subsidiaries entered into a Guaranty Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such subsidiaries guarantee the payment and performance of the Obligations. Additionally, Fossil Group Europe and the other non-U.S. borrowers from time to time party to the Credit Agreement are required to enter into security instruments with respect to all or substantially all of their assets that can be pledged under applicable local law.

Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest per annum at the (a) LIBOR rate plus the applicable interest margin, (b) the daily LIBOR rate plus the applicable interest margin or (c) the base rate plus the applicable interest margin. The applicable interest margin varies from 4.00% to 5.00% for LIBOR rate loans and daily LIBOR rate loans and 1.50% to 3.00% for base rate loans and is based on our average daily excess availability under the Revolving Credit Facility for the most recently ended calendar quarter, which is an amount equal (a) the lesser of (i) $325 million and (ii) the aggregate borrowing base minus (b) the amount of all outstanding borrowings and letter of credit obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility, for each day during the applicable period divided by the number of days in such period. The applicable interest margin will increase by 1% per annum on each anniversary of the closing of the Credit Agreement.

Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the LIBOR rate plus 8%, increasing to the LIBOR rate plus 9% on January 29, 2020 and thereafter or (b) the base rate plus 6.5%, increasing to the base rate plus 7.5% on January 29, 2020 and thereafter.

We are required to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan Facility in the amount of $64.1 million on March 31, 2020 and the outstanding balance on December 31, 2020. Additionally, loans under the Credit Agreement may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at our option, in minimum principal amounts of (a) $1.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, with respect to a base rate loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, (b) $5.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, with respect to a LIBOR rate loan or a daily LIBOR rate loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, and (c) $5.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, with respect to the Term Loan Facility. Loans under the Credit Agreement must be repaid with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance and condemnation events, certain debt and equity issuances and certain cash dividends received from our subsidiaries. We may permanently reduce the revolving credit commitment at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, in a minimum aggregate principal amount of not less than $3.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof.

We are required to pay a commitment fee on the unused amounts of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears, of 0.5% on the average daily unused portion of the overall commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility.
    
The repayment obligation under the Credit Agreement can be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default, including the failure to pay principal or interest, a material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty, violation of covenants, cross-default, change in control, bankruptcy events, failure of a loan document provision, certain Employee Retirement Income Security Act events and material judgments.

Financial covenants governing the Credit Agreement require us to maintain (a) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio measured quarterly on a rolling twelve-month basis of 1.15 to 1.00 if the Company’s quarter-end balances of cash and cash equivalents plus the excess availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is less than $200 million; (b) a maximum leverage ratio measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period of four fiscal quarters ending on such date of (i) 3.75 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter ending during the period through September 28, 2019 and (ii)  3.5 to 1.0 thereafter; (c) a minimum trailing twelve-month EBITDA tested quarterly of $110 million; (d) a minimum liquidity covenant of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents plus available and unused capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility equal to $160 million; and (e) maximum capital expenditures of $35 million per year. Additionally, we are restricted from making open market repurchases of our common stock.
During the Year To Date Period, we had net payments of $170.2 million under the Term Loan at an average annual interest rate of 10.4%. We had no borrowings or payments under the Revolving Credit Facility during the Year To Date Period. As of June 29, 2019, we had $229.8 million outstanding under the Term Loan and no loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. We also had unamortized debt issuance costs of $5.8 million, which reduce the corresponding debt liability. In addition, we had $2.7 million of outstanding standby letters of credit at June 29, 2019. Amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility are reduced by any amounts outstanding under standby letters of credit. As of June 29, 2019, we had available borrowing capacity of $220.7 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. At June 29, 2019, we were in compliance with all debt covenants related to all our credit facilities.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 29, 2019, lease agreements that have commenced are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842): Amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification® ("ASC 842"). There were no other material changes to our off balance sheet arrangements as set forth in commitments and contingencies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to product returns, inventories, long-lived asset impairment, impairment of trade names, income taxes and warranty costs. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018, except for the effects that the adoption of ASC 842 had on our policies as disclosed under the header

Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained and incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our expected financial position, results of operations, business and financing plans found in this “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The words “may,” “believes,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “estimates,” “anticipates” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The actual results of the future events described in such forward-looking statements could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are: the effect of worldwide economic conditions; significant changes in consumer spending patterns or preferences; interruptions or delays in the supply of key components; acts of war or acts of terrorism; changes in foreign currency valuations in relation to the U.S. dollar; lower levels of consumer spending resulting from a general economic downturn or generally reduced shopping activity caused by public safety or consumer confidence concerns; the performance of our products within the prevailing retail environment; customer acceptance of both new designs and newly-introduced product lines, including risks related to the expanded launch of connected accessories; financial difficulties encountered by customers; the effects of vigorous competition in the markets in which we operate; the integration of the organizations and operations of any acquired businesses into our existing organization and operations; risks related to the success of our restructuring programs; the termination or non-renewal of material licenses, foreign operations and manufacturing; changes in the costs of materials, labor and advertising; government regulation and tariffs; our ability to secure and protect trademarks and other intellectual property rights; and the outcome of current and possible future litigation.
In addition to the factors listed above, our actual results may differ materially due to the other risks and uncertainties discussed in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the risks and uncertainties set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018. Accordingly, readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should consider these facts in evaluating the information and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained herein. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
As a multinational enterprise, we are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our most significant foreign currency risk relates to the euro and, to a lesser extent, the Canadian dollar, British pound, Japanese yen, Mexican peso and Australian dollar as compared to the U.S. dollar. Due to our vertical nature whereby a significant portion of goods are sourced from our owned entities, we face foreign currency risks related to the necessary current settlement of intercompany inventory transactions. We employ a variety of operating practices to manage these market risks relative to foreign currency exchange rate changes and, where deemed appropriate, utilize forward contracts. These operating practices include, among others, our ability to convert foreign currency into U.S. dollars at spot rates and to maintain U.S. dollar pricing relative to sales of our products to certain distributors located outside the U.S. Additionally, we enter into forward contracts to manage fluctuations in Japanese yen exchange rates that will be used to settle future third-party inventory component purchases by a U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiary. The use of forward contracts allows us to offset exposure to rate fluctuations because the gains or losses incurred on the derivative instruments will offset, in whole or in part, losses or gains on the underlying foreign currency exposure. We use derivative instruments only for risk management purposes and do not use them for speculation or for trading. There were no significant changes in how we managed foreign currency transactional exposure in the Second Quarter, and management does not anticipate any significant changes in such exposures or in the strategies we employ to manage such exposure in the near future.

If we were to settle our euro, Canadian dollar, British pound, Japanese yen, Mexican peso, Australian dollar and U.S. dollar based forward contracts hedging inventory transactions as of June 29, 2019, the result would have been a net gain of approximately $3.8 million. As of June 29, 2019, a 10% unfavorable change in the U.S. dollar strengthening against foreign currencies to which we have balance sheet transactional exposures would have decreased net pre-tax income by $19.8 million. The translation of the balance sheets of our foreign-based operations from their local currencies into U.S. dollars is also sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As of June 29, 2019, a 10% unfavorable change in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar strengthening against the foreign currencies to which we have exposure would have reduced consolidated stockholders' equity by approximately $49.4 million.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to interest rate volatility with regard to debt borrowings. Based on our variable-rate debt outstanding as of June 29, 2019, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by approximately $2.3 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (“Disclosure Controls”), as defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Disclosure Controls evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective as of June 29, 2019.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the Second Quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
There are no legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which our properties are subject, other than routine litigation incidental to our business, which is not material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the following risk factor in addition to other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2018 and in other documents we file with the SEC, in evaluating the Company and its business.
When additional tariffs or other restrictions are placed on imports from China or any retaliatory trade measures are taken by China, our revenue and results of operations may be materially harmed.
When significant tariffs or other restrictions are placed on imports from China or any retaliatory trade measures are taken by China, our revenue and results of operations may be materially harmed. In September 2018, the Trump Administration implemented additional tariffs amounting to 10% ad valorem on thousands of categories of goods covering an estimated $200 billion of inbound trade from China, including certain electronics. On May 10, 2019, the Trump Administration increased these tariffs to 25% ad valorem. These additional tariffs followed earlier measures taken by the Trump Administration in 2018 to impose 25% ad valorem duties on certain goods comprising an estimated $50 billion of inbound trade from China. Certain of our packaging and handbag products were impacted with these additional 25% ad valorem tariffs, based on the first sale export price as imported into the United States. Our smartwatches that are assembled and manufactured in China are not currently subject to the 25% additional tariffs due to an exemption that was granted.
However, on August 1, 2019, President Trump announced new 10% ad valorem tariffs that will cover the remaining estimated $300 billion of inbound trade from China, including several of our watch products. The new tariffs will go into effect on September 1, 2019 barring a change in course. The announcement follows an earlier proposal by the Trump Administration that would have imposed 25% ad valorem tariffs on the balance of inbound trade from China, but that were suspended pending trade negotiations with China. The new 10% ad valorem tariffs could impact our imports of smartwatches and certain traditional watch components. Following a recent determination by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which administers the additional tariffs, these tariffs could apply broadly to our traditional watches incorporating a watch movement from China. Barring certain circumstances, they may also apply to individual China-sourced cases and bands on watches assembled in China as well as other countries. It is difficult to accurately estimate the impact on our business from these tariff actions or similar actions. However, assuming no offsets from price increases, sourcing changes, or other changes to regulatory rulings, all of which are currently under review, the estimated gross exposure from an additional 10% tariff recognized in the second half of fiscal year 2019 is approximately $5 to $10 million.
The Trump Administration continues to negotiate with China toward a trade deal, which would foreseeably lead to the removal of the additional tariffs. However, if the additional tariffs continue or increase, we may be required to raise our prices, which may result in the loss of customers and harm our operating performance. Alternatively, we may seek to shift production outside of China or otherwise change our sourcing strategy for these products, resulting in significant costs and disruption to our operations. Even if the United States does not impose these additional tariffs, it is always possible that our business will be impacted by retaliatory trade measures taken by China or other countries in response to existing or future tariffs, causing us to raise prices or make changes to our operations, any of which could materially harm our revenue or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no shares of common stock repurchased under any of our repurchase programs during the Second Quarter. We are currently prohibited by the terms of our Revolving Credit Facility from repurchasing shares of our common stock.
Item 5. Other Information
We have renewed our global licensing agreement with Donna Karan Studio LLC for the design, development and distribution of DKNY branded watches through 2024, subject to early termination. We have also renewed our global licensing agreement with the Tory Burch Company for the design, development and distribution of watches through year 2023, subject to early termination.
