CAPRI HOLDINGS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
The Company was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on December 13, 2002 as Michael Kors Holdings Limited and changed its name to Capri Holdings Limited (“Capri,” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) on December 31, 2018. The Company is a holding company that owns brands that are leading designers, marketers, distributors and retailers of branded women’s and men’s accessories, apparel and footwear bearing the Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors tradenames and related trademarks and logos. The Company completed the acquisition of Gianni Versace S.r.l. (“Versace”) on December 31, 2018. As a result, the Company now operates in three reportable segments: Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors. See Note 18 for additional information.
The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned or controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements as of September 28, 2019 and for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018 are unaudited. In addition, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 30, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2019, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
The Company utilizes a 52 to 53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31. As such, the term “Fiscal Year” or “Fiscal” refers to the 52-week or 53-week period, ending on that day. The results for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, are based on 13-week and 26-week periods, respectively.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment and make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The level of uncertainty in estimates and assumptions increases with the length of time until the underlying transactions are completed. The most significant assumptions and estimates involved in preparing the financial statements include allowances for customer deductions, sales returns, sales discounts and doubtful accounts, estimates of gift card breakage, estimates of inventory recovery, the valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of deferred taxes and the valuation of and the estimated useful lives used for amortization and depreciation of intangible assets and property and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods’ financial information in order to conform to the current period’s presentation, including the realignment of the Company’s segment reporting structure in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, as further described in Note 18.
Seasonality
The Company experiences certain effects of seasonality with respect to its business. The Company generally experiences greater sales during its third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during its first fiscal quarter.
Inventories, net
Inventories mainly consist of finished goods with the exception of raw materials inventory of $22 million and $25 million, respectively, recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019.

Derivative Financial Instruments
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Company uses forward currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain transactions. The Company, in its normal course of business, enters into transactions with foreign suppliers and seeks to minimize risks related to these transactions. The Company employs these forward currency contracts to hedge the Company’s cash flows, as they relate to foreign currency transactions. Certain of these contracts are designated as hedges for accounting purposes, while others remain undesignated. All of the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a gross basis, regardless of their hedge designation.
In connection with the September 24, 2018 definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Versace, the Company entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts in September 2018 with notional amounts totaling €1.680 billion (approximately $2.001 billion) to mitigate its foreign currency exchange risk through the closing date of the acquisition, which were settled on December 21, 2018. These derivative contracts were not designated as accounting hedges. Therefore, changes in fair value were recorded to foreign currency (gain) loss in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company’s accounting policy is to classify cash flows from derivative instruments that are accounted for as cash flow hedges in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged. Accordingly, the Company classified the unrealized gains and losses relating to these derivative instruments within cash flows from investing activities.
The Company designates certain contracts related to the purchase of inventory that qualify for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges. Formal hedge documentation is prepared for all derivative instruments designated as hedges, including description of the hedged item and the hedging instrument and the risk being hedged. The changes in the fair value for contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item affects earnings. When the inventory related to forecasted inventory purchases that are being hedged is sold to a third party, the gains or losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are recognized within cost of goods sold. The Company uses regression analysis to assess effectiveness of derivative instruments that are designated as hedges, which compares the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument to the change in the related hedged item. If the hedge is no longer expected to be highly effective in the future, future changes in the fair value are recognized in earnings. For those contracts that are not designated as hedges, changes in the fair value are recorded to foreign currency (gain) loss in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company classifies cash flows relating to its forward foreign currency exchange contracts related to purchase of inventory consistently with the classification of the hedged item, within cash flows from operating activities.
The Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. In order to mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Company only enters into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and certain other financial factors, adhering to established limits for credit exposure. The aforementioned forward contracts generally have a term of no more than 12 months. The period of these contracts is directly related to the foreign transaction they are intended to hedge.
Net Investment Hedges
The Company also uses fixed-to-fixed cross currency swap agreements to hedge its net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between its U.S. Dollars and these foreign currencies. The Company has elected the spot method of designating these contracts under ASU 2017-12 and has designated these contracts as net investment hedges. The net gain or loss on the net investment hedge is reported within foreign currency translation gains and losses (“CTA”), as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest accruals and coupon payments are recognized directly in interest expense in the Company’s statement of operations and comprehensive income. Upon discontinuation of a hedge, all previously recognized amounts remain in CTA until the hedged net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated.
Net Income per Share
The Company’s basic net income per ordinary share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per ordinary share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if share option grants or any other potentially dilutive instruments, including restricted shares and restricted share units (“RSUs”), were exercised or converted into ordinary shares. These potentially dilutive securities are included in diluted shares to the extent they are dilutive under the treasury stock method for the applicable periods. Performance-based RSUs are included in diluted shares if the related performance conditions are considered satisfied as of the end of the reporting period and to the extent they are dilutive under the treasury stock method.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Lease Accounting
On March 31, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset on the balance sheet for all leases, except certain short-term leases. In evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02, the Company considered guidance provided by several additional ASUs issued by the FASB, including ASU 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842” in January 2018, ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements,” both issued in July 2018, and ASU 2018-20, “Leases (Topic 842) - Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors” issued in December 2018. In connection with its implementation of ASU 2016-02, the Company adopted the package of three practical expedients, allowing it to carry forward its previous lease classification and embedded lease evaluations and not to reassess initial direct costs as of the date of adoption. The Company also adopted, the practical expedient allowing it to combine lease and non-lease components for its real estate leases. Lastly, the Company adopted the practical expedient provided by ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements,” allowing it to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption without restating the comparative prior year periods.
The Company’s existing lease obligations, which relate to stores, corporate locations, warehouses, and equipment, are subject to the new standard and resulted in recording of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets for operating leases on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We have considered all new accounting pronouncements and, other than the recent pronouncements discussed below, have concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows based on current information.
Intangibles
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract,” which reduces the complexity for the accounting for costs of implementing a cloud computing service arrangement. The standard aligns the accounting for capitalizing implementation costs of hosting arrangements, regardless of whether or not the contract conveys a license to the hosted software. ASU 2018-15 is effective beginning with the Company’s Fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and can either be presented prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-15 on its consolidated financial statements, but believes it is generally consistent with its current accounting for cloud computing arrangements and will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for contracts with its customers when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties and payment terms have been identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for goods or services.
The Company sells its products through three primary channels of distribution: retail, wholesale and licensing. Within the retail and wholesale channels, substantially all of the Company’s revenues consist of sales of products that represent a single performance obligation, where control transfers at a point in time to the customer. For licensing arrangements, royalty and advertising revenue is recognized over time based on access provided to the Company’s brands.
Retail
The Company generates sales through directly operated stores and e-commerce throughout the Americas (U.S., Canada and Latin America, excluding Brazil), EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) and certain parts of Asia.
Gift Cards. The contract liability related to gift cards, net of estimated “breakage,” was $12 million and $13 million as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
Loyalty Program. The contract liability, net of an estimated “breakage,” of $3 million as of both September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019 is recorded as a reduction to revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and is expected to be recognized within the next 12 months.
Wholesale
The Company’s products are sold primarily to major department stores, specialty stores and travel retail shops throughout the Americas, EMEA and Asia. The Company also has arrangements where its products are sold to geographic licensees in certain parts of EMEA, Asia, and South America.
Licensing
The Company provides its third-party licensees with the right to access its Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors trademarks under product and geographic licensing arrangements. Under geographic licensing arrangements, third party licensees receive the right to distribute and sell products bearing the Company’s trademarks in retail and/or wholesale channels within certain geographical areas, including Brazil, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, South Africa, certain parts of Asia and Australia.
The Company recognizes royalty revenue and advertising contributions based on the percentage of sales made by the licensees. Generally the Company’s guaranteed minimum royalty amounts due from licensees relate to contractual periods that do not exceed 12 months, however, some of our guaranteed minimums for Versace are multi-year based. As of September 28, 2019, contractually guaranteed minimum fees from our license agreements expected to be recognized as revenue during future periods were as follows (in millions):

					
 	 	Contractually Guaranteed Minimum Fees	
 			
 	Remainder of Fiscal 2020	$	14		
 	Fiscal 2021	27		
 	Fiscal 2022	27

Sales Returns
The refund liability recorded as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019 was $35 million in each period and the related asset for the right to recover returned product as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019 was $12 million in each period.
Contract Balances
Total contract liabilities were $17 million and $31 million as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, respectively. For the three and six months ended September 28, 2019, the Company recognized $3 million and $17 million, respectively, in revenue which related to contract liabilities that existed at March 30, 2019. For the three and six months ended September 29, 2018, the Company recognized $3 million and $11 million, respectively, in revenue which related to contract liabilities that existed at April 1, 2018. There were no contract assets recorded as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019.
There were no changes in historical variable consideration estimates that were materially different from actual results.

4. Leases
The Company leases retail stores, office space and warehouse space under operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through September 2043. The Company’s leases generally have terms of up to 10 years, generally require a fixed annual rent and may require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. Although most of the Company’s equipment is owned, the Company has limited equipment leases that expire on various dates through February 2024. The Company acts as sublessor in certain leasing arrangements, primarily related to closed stores under its Retail Fleet Optimization Plan, as defined in Note 10. Fixed sublease payments received are recognized on a straight-line basis over the sublease term. The Company determines the sublease term based on the date it provides possession to the subtenant through the expiration date of the sublease.

13

The Company recognizes operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at lease commencement date, based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rates to determine the present value of fixed lease payments based on the information available at the lease commencement date, as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s leases. The Company’s incremental borrowing rates are based on the term of the leases, the economic environment of the leases, and reflect the rate it would pay to borrow on a secured basis. Certain leases include one or more renewal options, generally for the same period as the initial term of the lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion and as such, the Company typically determines that exercise of these renewal options is not reasonably certain. As a result, the Company generally does not include the renewal option period in the expected lease term and the associated lease payments are not included in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability. Certain leases also contain termination options with an associated penalty. Generally, the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise these options and as such, they are not included in the determination of the expected lease term. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company’s leases generally provide for payments of non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other costs associated with the leased property. The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components of its real estate leases together as a single lease component and, as such, includes fixed payments of non-lease components in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for its real estate leases. Variable lease payments, such as percentage rentals based on location sales, periodic adjustments for inflation, reimbursement of real estate taxes, any variable common area maintenance and any other variable costs associated with the leased property are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs and are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

5. Acquisitions
Acquisition of Versace
On December 31, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Versace for a total enterprise value of approximately €1.753 billion (or approximately $2.005 billion), giving effect to an investment made by the Versace family at acquisition of 2.4 million shares of CPRI stock. The acquisition was funded through a combination of borrowings under the Company’s 2018 Term Loan Facility, drawings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility and cash on hand (see Note 11 for additional information).
Versace’s results of operations have been included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on December 31, 2018. Versace contributed total revenue of $228 million and $435 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended August 31, 2019 and net income from operations of $9 million and $6 million, respectively, after amortization of non-cash purchase accounting adjustments, for the three and six months ended August 31, 2019 (reflecting a one-month reporting lag).
As the Company finalizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional purchase price adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period. See Note 4 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019 for additional disclosures relating to the Company’s acquisitions.
6. Receivables, net
Receivables, net, consist of (in millions):

								
 	September 28,

 	454		 	482		
Less: allowances	(86	)	 	(99	)	
 	$	368		 	$	383		

	

		
(1) 	As of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, $64 million and $317 million, respectively, of trade receivables were insured.	
Receivables are presented net of allowances for discounts, markdowns, operational chargebacks and doubtful accounts. Discounts are based on open invoices where trade discounts have been extended to customers. Markdowns are based on wholesale customers’ sales performance, seasonal negotiations with customers, historical deduction trends and an evaluation of current market conditions. Operational chargebacks are based on deductions taken by customers, net of expected recoveries. Such provisions, and related recoveries, are reflected in revenues.
The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of periodic aging of receivables that are not covered by insurance and assessments of collectability based on an evaluation of historic and anticipated trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers and the impact of general economic conditions. The past due status of a receivable is based on its contractual terms. Amounts deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance when it is probable the amounts will not be recovered. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $15 million and $18 million, respectively, as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019. The Company had bad debt expense of $4 million and $1 million, respectively, for the six months ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018. All other periods presented were immaterial.

10. Restructuring and Other Charges
Retail Fleet Optimization Plan
On May 31, 2017, the Company announced that it plans to close between 100 and 125 of its Michael Kors retail stores in order to improve the profitability of its retail store fleet (“Retail Fleet Optimization Plan”). The Company anticipates finalizing the remainder of the planned store closures under the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan by the end of Fiscal 2020. The Company expects to incur approximately $100 - $125 million of one-time costs associated with these store closures. Collectively, the Company anticipates lower depreciation and amortization expense as a result of the impairment charges recorded once these initiatives are completed.
During the six months ended September 28, 2019, the Company closed 23 of its Michael Kors retail stores under the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan, for a total of 123 stores closed at a cost of $95 million since plan inception. Restructuring charges recorded in connection with the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan during the six months ended September 28, 2019 were $1 million. The below table presents a rollforward of the Company’s remaining restructuring liability related to this plan (in millions):

Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility
The 2018 Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a leverage ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter of no greater than 3.75 to 1. Such leverage ratio is calculated as the ratio of the sum of total indebtedness as of the date of the measurement plus six times the consolidated rent expense for the last four consecutive fiscal quarters, to Consolidated EBITDAR (as defined below) for the last four consecutive fiscal quarters. Consolidated EBITDAR is defined as consolidated net income plus income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, consolidated rent expense and other non-cash charges, subject to certain additions and deductions. The 2018 Credit Facility also includes covenants that limit additional indebtedness, guarantees, liens, acquisitions and other investments and cash dividends that are customary for financings of this type. As of September 28, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants related to this agreement.
As of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, the Company had borrowings of $513 million and $539 million, respectively, outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, which were recorded within short-term debt in its consolidated balance sheets. In addition, stand-by letters of credit of $16 million were outstanding as of September 28, 2019. At September 28, 2019, the amount available for future borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility was $471 million. As of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, the carrying value of borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan Facility was $1.428 billion and $1.570 billion, respectively, of which $80 million was recorded within short-term debt in each period and $1.348 billion and $1.490 billion, respectively, was recorded within long-term debt in its consolidated balance sheets.

See Note 11 to the Company’s Fiscal 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding the Company’s credit facilities and debt obligations.
12. Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to various legal proceedings and claims. Although the outcome of such items cannot be determined with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will have a material adverse effect on its cash flow, results of operations or financial position.
Please refer to the Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments disclosure within the Liquidity section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019 for a detailed disclosure of other commitments and contractual obligations as of March 30, 2019.
13. Fair Value Measurements
Financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value using the three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy of a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in the valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-based (observable) or internally derived (unobservable). Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs based on a company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:
Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data.
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

At September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, the fair values of the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts and net investment hedges were determined using broker quotations, which were calculations derived from observable market information: the applicable currency rates at the balance sheet date and those forward rates particular to the contract at inception. The Company makes no adjustments to these broker obtained quotes or prices, but assesses the credit risk of the counterparty and would adjust the provided valuations for counterparty credit risk when appropriate. The fair values of the forward contracts are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on whether they represent assets or liabilities to the Company. The fair values of net investment hedges are included in other assets, as detailed in Note 14.

21

All contracts are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as shown in the following table (in millions):

The Company’s long-term debt obligations are recorded in its consolidated balance sheets at carrying values, which may differ from the related fair values. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is estimated using external pricing data, including any available quoted market prices and based on other debt instruments with similar characteristics. Borrowings under revolving credit agreements, if outstanding, are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such borrowings. See Note 11 for detailed information relating to carrying values of the Company’s outstanding debt. The following table summarizes the carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s short- and long-term debt, based on Level 2 measurements (in millions):

																
 	September 28, 2019	 	March 30, 2019	
 	Carrying
Value	 	Estimated
Fair Value	 	Carrying

Revolving Credit Facilities	$	523		 	$	523		 	$	550		 	$	550		

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.
Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s non-financial assets include goodwill, intangible assets, operating lease right-of-use assets and property and equipment. Such assets are reported at their carrying values and are not subject to recurring fair value measurements. The Company’s goodwill and its indefinite-lived intangible assets (Versace and Jimmy Choo brands) are assessed for impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, while its other long-lived assets, including operating lease right-of-use assets, property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any such asset may not be recoverable. The fair values of these assets were determined based on Level 3 measurements using the Company’s best estimates of the amount and timing of future discounted cash flows, based on historical experience, market conditions, current trends and performance expectations.

22

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts of such assets may not be recoverable. This assessment is performed for each long-lived asset group that represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The grouping of assets requires a significant amount of judgment. The Company historically grouped certain premier store locations, primarily Michael Kors premier stores, with other Michael Kors stores within the immediate geographic area surrounding the premier store as the Company believed the assets of the store group benefited from the Company’s investments in the premier store. Due to the Company’s recent significant expansion in luxury retail, as well as its continued growth in its global digital business, the Company reassessed its methodology for evaluating impairment of long-lived assets, including the determination of asset groupings. The Company’s luxury retail business generally operates only premier, more luxurious, retail store locations with consistent investments across its individual stores. As a result, during the six months ended September 28, 2019, the Company determined that asset groups at an individual store level represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. As a result of this determination, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, the Company identified impairment indicators at certain premier retail store locations and recorded operating lease right-of-use asset and property and equipment impairment charges of $68 million and $11 million, respectively, which are included in the impairment charges detailed in the table below (in millions):

In addition to the impairment charges above, the Company recorded an adjustment to reduce its March 31, 2019 opening balance of retained earnings by $152 million, net of tax, reflecting impairments of operating lease right-of-use assets for certain underperforming real estate locations for which the carrying value of the opening operating lease right-of-use asset exceeded its related fair value. Property and equipment related to these underperforming locations were fully impaired due to the adoption of ASU 2016-02. See Note 2 and Note 4 for additional information.
14. Derivative Financial Instruments
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain of its transactions. The Company, in its normal course of business, enters into transactions with foreign suppliers and seeks to minimize risks related to certain forecasted inventory purchases by using forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Company only enters into derivative instruments with highly credit-rated counterparties. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

23

In connection with the September 24, 2018 definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Versace, the Company entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts in September 2018 with notional amounts totaling €1.680 billion (approximately $2.001 billion) to mitigate its foreign currency exchange risk through the closing date of the acquisition, which were settled on December 21, 2018. These derivative contracts were not designated as accounting hedges. Therefore, changes in fair value were recorded to foreign currency (gain) loss in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company’s accounting policy is to classify cash flows from derivative instruments that are accounted for as cash flow hedges in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged. Accordingly, the Company classified the unrealized gains and losses relating to these derivative instruments within cash flows from investing activities.
Net Investment Hedges
As of September 28, 2019, the Company had multiple fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $3.190 billion to hedge its net investment in Euro-denominated subsidiaries and $44 million to hedge its net investment in Japanese Yen-denominated subsidiaries against future volatility in the exchange rates between U.S. Dollar and these currencies. Under the terms of these contracts, which have maturity dates between January 2022 and June 2026, the Company will exchange the semi-annual fixed rate payments on U.S. denominated debt for fixed rate payments of 0% to 1.674% in Euros and 0.89% in Japanese Yen. These contracts have been designated as net investment hedges.
When a cross-currency swap is used as a hedging instrument in a net investment hedge assessed under the spot method, the cross-currency basis spread is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and is recognized as a reduction in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Accordingly, the Company recorded a reduction in interest expense of $19 million and $34 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended September 28, 2019 and $3 million and $4 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended September 29, 2018.
The following table details the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts, which are recorded on a gross basis in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019 (in millions):

The Company records and presents the fair values of all of its derivative assets and liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets on a gross basis, as shown in the previous table. However, if the Company were to offset and record the asset and liability balances for its derivative instruments on a net basis in accordance with the terms of its master netting arrangements, which provide for the right to set-off amounts for similar transactions denominated in the same currencies, the resulting impact as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019 would be as follows (in millions):

Derivative assets, net	$	6		 	$	5		 	$	109		 	$	37		
Derivative liabilities, net	$	3		 	$	5		 	$	—		 	$	—		

The Company’s master netting arrangements do not require cash collateral to be pledged by the Company or its counterparties.
Changes in the fair value of the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are designated as accounting hedges are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings when the items underlying the hedged transactions are recognized into earnings, as a component of cost of sales within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The net gain or loss on net investment hedges are reported within foreign currency translation gains and losses (“CTA”) as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Upon discontinuation of the hedge, such amounts remain in CTA until the related investment is sold or liquidated.

The Company expects that substantially all of the amounts currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for its forward foreign currency exchange contracts will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months, based upon the timing of inventory purchases and turnover.
Undesignated Hedges
During the three and six months ended September 28, 2019, the net impact of changes in the fair value of undesignated forward foreign currency exchange contracts recognized within foreign currency loss (gain) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income was not material.
During the three and six months ended September 29, 2018, the Company recognized a net loss of $30 million and $29 million, respectively, related to changes in the fair value of undesignated forward foreign currency exchange contracts within foreign currency loss (gain) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. These amounts were primarily comprised of a $30 million loss related to the derivative contracts entered into on September 25, 2018 to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk associated with the Versace acquisition that were settled on December 21, 2018.
15. Shareholders’ Equity
Share Repurchase Program
During the six months ended September 29, 2018, the Company repurchased 1,659,941 shares at a cost of $100 million through open market transactions under its $1.0 billion share-repurchase program, which expired on May 25, 2019. On August 1, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a new $500 million share repurchase program, which expires August 1, 2021. Share repurchases may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, trading under the Company’s insider trading policy and other relevant factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
The Company also has in place a “withhold to cover” repurchase program, which allows the Company to withhold ordinary shares from certain executive officers and directors to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of their restricted share awards. During the six month periods ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, the Company withheld 63,223 shares and 106,002 shares, respectively, with a fair value of $2 million and $7 million, respectively, in satisfaction of minimum tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of restricted share awards.

(1) 	Foreign currency translation gains and losses for the six months ended September 28, 2019 include net gains of $6 million on intra-entity transactions that are of a long-term investment nature, a $42 million translation loss relating to the inclusion of the Versace business and an $86 million gain, net of taxes of $18 million, relating to the Company’s net investment hedges. Foreign currency translation gains and losses for the six months ended September 29, 2018 include net gains of $8 million on intra-entity transactions that are of a long-term investment nature, a $105 million translation loss relating to the inclusion of the Jimmy Choo business and a $4 million gain, net of taxes of $1 million, relating to the Company’s net investment hedges.	
		
(2) 	Reclassified amounts relate to the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts for inventory purchases and are recorded within cost of goods sold in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. All tax effects were not material for the periods presented.	
16. Share-Based Compensation
The Company issues equity grants to certain employees and directors of the Company at the discretion of the Company’s Compensation and Talent Committee. The Company has two equity plans, one stock option plan adopted in Fiscal 2008 (as amended and restated, the “2008 Plan”), and the Omnibus Incentive Plan adopted in the third fiscal quarter of Fiscal 2012 and amended and restated with shareholder approval in May 2015 (the “Incentive Plan”). The 2008 Plan only provided for grants of share options and was authorized to issue up to 23,980,823 ordinary shares. As of September 28, 2019, there were no shares available to grant equity awards under the 2008 Plan. The Incentive Plan allows for grants of share options, restricted shares and RSUs, and other equity awards, and authorizes a total issuance of up to 15,246,000 ordinary shares. At September 28, 2019, there were 2,530,245 ordinary shares available for future grants of equity awards under the Incentive Plan. Option grants issued from the 2008 Plan generally expire ten years from the date of the grant, and those issued under the Incentive Plan generally expire seven years from the date of the grant.
The following table summarizes the Company’s share-based compensation activity during the six months ended September 28, 2019:

									
 	Options	 	Service-Based RSUs	 	Performance-Based RSUs	
Outstanding/Unvested at March 30, 2019	2,131,259		 	3,839,862		 	737,074		
Granted	—		 	1,869,918		 	169,817		
Exercised/Vested	—		 	(711,173	)	 	(53,025	)	
Decrease due to performance condition	—		 	—		 	(39,999	)	
Canceled/forfeited	(6,452	)	 	(120,970	)	 	—		
Outstanding/Unvested at September 28, 2019	2,124,807		 	4,877,637		 	813,867		

The weighted average grant date fair value of service-based and performance-based RSUs granted during the six months ended September 28, 2019 was $33.90 and $33.86, respectively, and $67.39 and $67.52, respectively, during the six months ended September 29, 2018.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
The following table summarizes compensation expense attributable to share-based compensation for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018 (in millions):

																
 	Three Months Ended	 	Six Months Ended	
 	September 28,
2019	 	September 29,
2018	 	September 28,
2019	 	September 29,
2018	
Share-based compensation expense	$	21		 	$	13		 	$	49		 	$	26		
Tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense	$	4		 	$	3		 	$	9		 	$	5		

Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company estimates forfeitures based on its historical forfeiture rate to date. The estimated value of future forfeitures for equity grants as of September 28, 2019 is approximately $11 million.

27

See Note 17 in the Company’s Fiscal 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Company’s share-based compensation awards.
17. Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019 are (5.8)% and 1.7%, respectively. Such rates differ from the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) federal statutory rate of 19% primarily due to the favorable impact from the realization of previously unrecognized tax benefits associated with certain positions in Europe realized during the period and return to provision adjustments in the US and Europe, which resulted in a benefit to the Company’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019. In addition, the Company had favorable effects related to global financing activities. The global financing activities are related to the Company’s 2014 move of its principal executive office from Hong Kong to the U.K. and decision to become a U.K. tax resident. In connection with this decision, the Company funded its international growth strategy through intercompany debt financing arrangements between certain of our U.S., U.K. and Switzerland subsidiaries in December 2015. Due to the difference in the statutory income tax rates between these jurisdictions, the Company realized a lower effective tax rate.
The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and six months ended September 29, 2018 were 9.9% and 9.5%, respectively. Such rates differed from the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) federal statutory rate of 19% primarily due to the favorable effects of global financing arrangements and tax benefits of share-based compensation.
18. Segment Information
The Company operates its business through three operating segments—Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors, which are based on its business activities and organization. The reportable segments are segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources, as well as in assessing performance. The primary key performance indicators are revenue and operating income for each segment. The Company’s reportable segments represent components of the business that offer similar merchandise, customer experience and sales/marketing strategies.
The Company’s three reportable segments are as follows:
		
•	Versace — segment includes revenue generated through the sale of Versace luxury ready-to-wear, accessories, footwear and home furnishings through directly operated Versace boutiques throughout North America (United States and Canada), EMEA and certain parts of Asia, as well as through Versace outlet stores and e-commerce sites. In addition, revenue is generated through wholesale sales to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements that allow third parties to use the Versace trademarks in connection with retail and/or wholesale sales of Versace branded products in specific geographic regions), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide, as well as through product license agreements in connection with the manufacturing and sale of jeans, fragrances, watches, jewelry and eyewear.	
		
•	Jimmy Choo — segment includes revenue generated through the sale of Jimmy Choo luxury footwear, handbags and small leather goods through directly operated Jimmy Choo stores throughout the Americas, EMEA and certain parts of Asia, through its e-commerce sites, as well as through wholesale sales of luxury goods to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements that allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo trademarks in connection with retail and/or wholesale sales of Jimmy Choo branded products in specific geographic regions), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide. In addition, revenue is generated through product licensing agreements, which allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of fragrances, sunglasses and eyewear.	
		
•	Michael Kors — segment includes revenue generated through the sale of Michael Kors products through four primary Michael Kors retail store formats: “Collection” stores, “Lifestyle” stores (including concessions), outlet stores and e-commerce, through which the Company sells Michael Kors products, as well as licensed products bearing the Michael Kors name, directly to the end consumer throughout the Americas, Europe and certain parts of Asia. The Michael Kors e-commerce business includes e-commerce sites in the U.S., Canada and certain parts of Europe and Asia. The Company also sells Michael Kors products directly to department stores, primarily located across the Americas and Europe, to specialty stores and travel retail shops, and to its geographic licensees. In addition, revenue is generated through product and geographic licensing arrangements, which allow third parties to use the Michael Kors brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of products, including watches, jewelry, fragrances and eyewear.	

28

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has certain corporate costs that are not directly attributable to its brands and, therefore, are not allocated to segments. Such costs primarily include certain administrative, corporate occupancy, and information systems expenses, including enterprise resource planning system implementation costs. In addition, certain other costs are not allocated to segments, including restructuring and other charges (including transition costs related to the Company’s recent acquisitions) and impairment costs. The segment structure is consistent with how the Company’s CODM plans and allocates resources, manages the business and assesses performance. All intercompany revenues are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance.

As of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, the Company's total assets were $8.393 billion and $6.650 billion, respectively. The increase in total assets was primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, which resulted in the Company recording operating lease right-of-use assets of $1.671 billion, of which $1.062 billion related to Michael Kors, $386 million related to Versace, and $223 million related to Jimmy Choo, as of September 28, 2019.

Founded in 1978 in Milan, Versace is known for its iconic and unmistakable style and unparalleled craftsmanship, over the past several decades the House of Versace has grown globally from its roots in haute couture, expanding into the design, manufacturing, distribution and retailing of ready-to-wear, accessories, footwear, eyewear, watches, jewelry, fragrance and home furnishings businesses.

Segment Information
We now operate in three reportable segments, which are as follows:
Versace
We generate revenue through the sale of Versace luxury ready-to-wear, accessories, footwear and home furnishings through directly operated Versace boutiques throughout North America (United States and Canada), EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and certain parts of Asia, as well as through Versace outlet stores and e-commerce sites. In addition, revenue is generated through wholesale sales to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide, as well as through product license agreements in connection with the manufacturing and sale of jeans, fragrances, watches, jewelry and eyewear.

In addition, revenue is generated through product licensing agreements, which allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of fragrances, sunglasses and eyewear.
Michael Kors
We generate revenue through the sale of Michael Kors products through four primary Michael Kors retail store formats: “Collection” stores, “Lifestyle” stores (including concessions), outlet stores and e-commerce, through which we sell our products, as well as licensed products bearing our name, directly to the end consumer throughout the Americas, Europe and certain parts of Asia.

32

Unallocated Expenses
In addition to the reportable segments discussed above, we have certain corporate costs that are not directly attributable to our brands and, therefore, are not allocated to segments. Such costs primarily include certain administrative, corporate occupancy, information systems expenses, including Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system implementation costs. In addition, certain other costs are not allocated to segments, including restructuring and other charges (including transaction and transition costs related to our recent acquisitions) and impairment costs. The new segment structure is consistent with how our chief operating decision maker plans and allocates resources, manages our business and assesses our performance. All prior period segment information has been recast to reflect the realignment of our segment reporting structure on a comparable basis, which occurred in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019. The following table presents our total revenue and income from operations by segment for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018 (in millions):

Seasonality
We experience certain effects of seasonality with respect to our business. We generally experience greater sales during our third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during our first fiscal quarter.
Certain Factors Affecting Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Establishing brand identity and enhancing global presence. We intend to grow our international presence through our global fashion luxury group, bringing together industry-leading fashion luxury brands. We believe that our recent acquisitions of Versace and Jimmy Choo significantly strengthen our future growth opportunities, while also increasing both product and geographic diversification. However, there are risks associated with new acquisitions and the anticipated benefits of acquisitions on our financial results may not be in line with our expectations.
We intend to continue to increase our international presence and global brand recognition by growing our existing international operations through acquisitions, the formation of various joint ventures with international partners and continuing with our international licensing arrangements. We feel this is an efficient method for continued penetration into the global luxury goods market, especially for markets where we have yet to establish a substantial presence. In addition, our growth strategy includes assuming direct control of certain licensed international operations to better manage our growth opportunities in the related regions.
See Note 5 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our recent acquisitions.
Channel Shift and Demand for Our Accessories and Related Merchandise. Our performance is affected by trends in the luxury goods industry, as well as shifts in demographics and changes in lifestyle preferences. Although the overall consumer spending for personal luxury products has recently increased, consumer shopping preferences have continued to shift from physical stores to on-line shopping. We currently expect that this trend will continue in the foreseeable future. We continue to adjust our operating strategy to the changing business environment. We have made significant progress toward our previously announced plan to close between 100 and 125 of our Michael Kors retail stores at an expected total one-time cost of approximately $100 - $125 million, in order to improve the profitability of our Michael Kors retail store fleet (“Retail Fleet Optimization Plan”). As of September 28, 2019, we closed a total of 123 stores at a cost of $95 million to date and recorded restructuring charges of $1 million and $6 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, respectively. We anticipate finalizing the remainder of the planned store closures under the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan by the end of Fiscal 2020. Collectively, we continue to anticipate lower depreciation and amortization associated with the impairment charges recorded once these initiatives are completed.
Foreign currency fluctuation. Our consolidated operations are impacted by the relationships between our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar, and those of our non-U.S. subsidiaries whose functional/local currency is other than the U.S. dollar, particularly the Euro, the British Pound, the Chinese Renminbi, the Japanese Yen, the Korean Won and the Canadian Dollar, among others. We continue to expect volatility in the global foreign currency exchange rates, which may have a negative impact on the reported results of certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in the future, when translated to U.S. Dollars.
Disruptions in shipping and distribution. Our operations are subject to the impact of shipping disruptions as a result of changes or damage to our distribution infrastructure, as well as due to external factors. Any future disruptions in our shipping and distribution network could have a negative impact on our results of operations.
Costs of Manufacturing and Tariffs. Our industry is subject to volatility in costs related to certain raw materials used in the manufacturing of our products. This volatility applies primarily to costs driven by commodity prices, which can increase or decrease dramatically over a short period of time. In addition, our costs may be impacted by tariffs imposed on our products and increased duties due to changes in trade terms. On May 10, 2019, the U.S. increased the tariff rate from 10% to 25% on $200 billion of imports of select product categories from China, and effective September 1, 2019, a 10% tariff on an additional $300 billion of goods from China, including ready-to-wear, footwear and men’s products, went into effect. If additional tariffs or trade restrictions are implemented by the U.S. or other countries, the cost of our products could increase which could adversely affect our business. In addition, commodity prices and tariffs may have an impact on our revenues, results of operations and cash flows. We use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate these effects by sourcing our products as efficiently as possible and diversifying the countries where we produce. In addition, manufacturing labor costs are also subject to degrees of volatility based on local and global economic conditions. We use commercially reasonable efforts to source from localities that suit our manufacturing standards and result in more favorable labor driven costs to our products.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies are those that are the most important to the portrayal of our results of operations and financial condition and that require our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In applying such policies, we must use certain assumptions that are based on our informed judgments, assessments of probability and best estimates. Estimates, by their nature, are subjective and are based on analysis of available information, including current and historical factors and the experience and judgment of management. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, we adopted the new accounting guidance related to lease accounting, as described in Note 2 and Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, our existing lease obligations, which relate to stores, corporate locations, warehouses, and equipment, will be recorded as a lease liability and right-of-use asset for operating leases on our consolidated balance sheet. Accordingly, adoption of this standard significantly increased the Company’s total assets and total liabilities. Our critical accounting policies are disclosed in full in the MD&A section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since March 30, 2019, other than described above.
General Definitions for Operating Results
Total revenue consists of sales from comparable retail stores and e-commerce sites and non-comparable retail stores and e-commerce sites, net of returns and markdowns, as well as those made to our wholesale customers, net of returns, discounts, markdowns and allowances. Additionally, revenue includes royalties and other contributions earned on sales of licensed products by our licensees as well as contractual royalty rates for the use of our trademarks in certain geographic territories.
Comparable store sales include sales from a retail store or an e-commerce site that has been operating for one full year after the end of the first month of its operation under our ownership. For stores that are closed, sales that were made in the final month of their operations (assuming closure prior to the fiscal month’s end), are excluded from the calculation of comparable store sales. Additionally, sales for stores that are either relocated, or expanded by a square footage of 25% or greater, in any given fiscal year, are also excluded from the calculation of comparable store sales at the time of their move or interruption, until such stores have been in their new location, or are operating under their new size/capacity, for at least one full year after the end of the first month of their relocation or expansion. All comparable store sales are presented on a 52-week basis. Comparable store sales are reported on a global basis, which represents management’s view of our Company as an expanding global business.
Constant currency effects are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, which are provided to supplement our reported operating results to facilitate comparisons of our operating results and trends in our business, excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Because we are a global company, foreign currency exchange rates may have a significant effect on our reported results. We calculate constant currency measures and the related foreign currency impacts by translating the current-year’s reported amounts into comparable amounts using prior year’s foreign exchange rates for each currency. All constant currency performance measures discussed below should be considered a supplement to and not in lieu of our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Cost of goods sold includes the cost of inventory sold and related duties and tariffs, freight-in on merchandise and foreign currency exchange gains/losses related to designated forward contracts for purchase commitments. All retail operating and occupancy costs are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses (see below) and, as a result, our cost of goods sold may not be comparable to that of other entities that have chosen to include some or all of those expenses as a component of their cost of goods sold.
Gross profit is total revenue minus cost of goods sold. As a result of retail operating and occupancy costs being excluded from our cost of goods sold, our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other entities that have chosen to include some or all of those expenses as a component of their gross profit.
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of warehousing and distribution costs, rent for our distribution centers, payroll, store occupancy costs (such as rent, common area maintenance, store pre-opening, real estate taxes and utilities), information technology and systems costs, corporate payroll and related benefits, advertising and promotion expense and other general expenses, as well as sublease income.
Depreciation and amortization includes depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets.

36

Impairment of long-lived assets consists of charges to write-down operating lease right-of-use assets, property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets to fair value. Impairment charges are not allocated to our reportable segments.
Restructuring and other charges includes store closure costs recorded in connection with the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan and other restructuring initiatives, as well as costs recorded in connection with our acquisitions of Versace and Jimmy Choo (see Note 5 and Note 10 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). Restructuring and other charges are not allocated to our reportable segments.
Income from operations consists of gross profit minus total operating expenses.
Other (income) expense, net includes insurance settlements and proceeds received related to our anti-counterfeiting efforts. In future periods, it may include any other miscellaneous activities not directly related to our operations.
Interest expense, net represents interest and fees on our revolving credit facilities, senior notes, term loan facilities and letters of credit (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further detail on our credit facilities), as well as amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount, offset by interest earned on highly liquid investments (investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less, classified as cash equivalents) and interest on cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges (see Note 14 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).
Foreign currency (gain)/loss includes net gains or losses related to the mark-to-market (fair value) on our forward currency contracts not designated as accounting hedges, and unrealized income or loss from the re-measurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of our subsidiaries.
Noncontrolling interests/Redeemable noncontrolling interest represents the portion of the equity ownership in the Michael Kors Latin American joint venture, MK (Panama) Holdings, S.A. and subsidiaries (“MK Panama”), noncontrolling interests in JC Industry S.r.L and JC Gulf Trading LLC, as well as in J. Choo Russia J.V. Limited, and noncontrolling interests in Versace Singapore Pte. Ltd., as well as the redeemable noncontrolling interest in Versace Australia PTY Limited.

(1) 	Includes store closure costs recorded in connection with the Retail Fleet Optimization Plan (as defined in Note 10) and other restructuring initiatives, as well as costs recorded in connection with our acquisitions of Jimmy Choo and Versace.	
Total Revenue
Total revenue increased $189 million, or 15.1%, to $1.442 billion for the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $1.253 billion for the three months ended September 29, 2018, which included net unfavorable foreign currency effects of approximately $13 million, primarily related to the weakening of the Euro, the British Pound, and the Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. Dollar during the three months ended September 28, 2019 as compared to the same prior year period. On a constant currency basis, our total revenue increased $202 million, or 16.1%. Total revenue for the three months ended September 28, 2019 includes approximately $228 million of incremental revenue attributable to Versace, which was acquired and consolidated into our results of operations effective December 31, 2018, as well as increased revenue from our Jimmy Choo business, offset in part by lower revenue from our Michael Kors business, as compared to the prior year.
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $111 million, or 14.5%, to $874 million for the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $763 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018, which included net unfavorable foreign currency effects of $9 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue decreased 30 basis points to 60.6% during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 60.9% during the three months ended September 29, 2018. The decrease in our gross profit margin was primarily attributable to lower gross profit margin for Michael Kors primarily driven by increased markdowns during the three months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to the three months ended September 29, 2018, partially offset by the inclusion of Versace, which benefited our gross margin 80 basis points.

38

Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased $226 million, or 39.4%, to $799 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $573 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018, which included incremental operating expenses of $139 million associated with the recently acquired Versace business. Our operating expenses included a net favorable foreign currency impact of approximately $23 million. Total operating expenses increased to 55.4% as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 45.7% for the three months ended September 29, 2018. The components that comprise total operating expenses are explained below.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $129 million, or 26.1%, to $623 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $494 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to incremental costs of $123 million associated with the recently acquired Versace business, which has been consolidated in our operations beginning on December 31, 2018.
Corporate unallocated expenses, which are included within selling, general and administrative expenses discussed above, but are not directly attributable to a reportable segment, increased $12 million, or 52.2%, to $35 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019 as compared to $23 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 43.2% for the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 39.4% for the three months ended September 29, 2018, primarily due to the inclusion of expenses associated with the Versace business, and increased retail store and e-commerce related costs as a percentage of total revenue during the three months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to the three months ended September 29, 2018.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $12 million, or 22.6%, to $65 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $53 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to incremental depreciation and amortization expense of $15 million attributable to our Versace business (including amortization of purchase accounting adjustments), partially offset by lower depreciation due to previously recorded property and equipment impairment charges. Depreciation and amortization increased to 4.5% as a percentage of total revenue during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 4.2% for the three months ended September 29, 2018.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
During the three months ended September 28, 2019, we recognized long-lived asset impairment charges of $104 million, which primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets largely driven by the negative impact from the situation in Hong Kong (see Note 13 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). During the three months ended September 29, 2018, we recognized long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately $7 million, which were primarily related to underperforming Michael Kors retail store locations, some of which related to closures as part of our Retail Fleet Optimization Plan.
Restructuring and Other Charges
During the three months ended September 28, 2019, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $7 million, which primarily included other costs of $6 million primarily in connection with the acquisition of Versace (see Note 10 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).
During the three months ended September 29, 2018, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $19 million, which were comprised of $16 million of other costs and restructuring charges of $3 million primarily recorded in connection with our Retail Fleet Optimization Plan. The other costs recorded during the three months ended September 29, 2018 included $9 million related to our agreement to acquire Versace and $7 million in connection with the Jimmy Choo acquisition. Restructuring and other charges are not evaluated as part of our reportable segments’ results (See Segment Information above for additional information).

39

Income from Operations
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations decreased $115 million, or 60.5%, to $75 million during three months ended ended September 28, 2019, compared to $190 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018. Income from operations as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 5.2% during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 15.2% for the three months ended September 29, 2018. See Segment Information above for a reconciliation of our segment operating income to total operating income.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased $3 million to $3 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $6 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018, primarily due to a $19 million reduction to interest expense related to the cross-currency swap used in the net investment hedge during the three months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to $3 million during the three months ended September 29, 2018, largely offset by increased interest expense attributable to higher borrowings than in prior year (see Note 11 and Note 14 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).
Foreign Currency Loss
During the three months ended September 28, 2019, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $4 million, primarily attributable to the revaluation and settlement of certain of our accounts payable in currencies other than the functional currency, as well as the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.
During the three months ended September 29, 2018, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $33 million, primarily attributable to a $30 million unrealized loss related to a forward foreign currency exchange derivative contract entered into to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk relating to the Versace acquisition.
Provision for Income Taxes
We recognized $4 million of income tax benefit during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $15 million of income tax expense for the three months ended September 29, 2018. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 28, 2019, was a benefit of 5.8%, compared to a provision of 9.9% for the three months ended September 29, 2018. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily related to the realization of previously unrecognized tax benefits associated with certain positions in Europe realized during the period and return to provision adjustments in the US and Europe, offset by the unfavorable impact of tax deficits recognized on shared based compensation during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to three months ended September 29, 2018.
Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.
Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
During the three months ended September 29, 2018, we recorded a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint ventures of $1 million. This loss represents the share of income that is not attributable to the Company.
Net Income Attributable to Capri
As a result of the foregoing, our net income decreased $65 million, or 47.1%, to $73 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $138 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018.

Revenues
Michael Kors revenues decreased $48 million, or 4.2%, to $1.089 billion during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $1.137 billion for the three months ended September 29, 2018, which included unfavorable foreign currency effects of $11 million. On a constant currency basis, revenue decreased $37 million, or 3.3%. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to:
		
•	a $56 million decrease in revenues, primarily driven by lower sales of women’s accessories and footwear, partially offset by increased sales of men’s apparel.	
This decrease was partially offset by:
		
•	an increase in comparable store sales of $3 million, including net unfavorable foreign currency effects of $6 million, which was primarily attributable to higher sales from women’s footwear, women’s apparel and men’s accessories, offset in part by lower sales from our watches, women’s accessories and jewelry product categories. Our comparable store sales benefited approximately 220 basis points from the inclusion of e-commerce sales.	
Income from Operations
Income from operations for our Michael Kors segment decreased $26 million, or 10.5%, to $222 million during the three months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $248 million for the three months ended September 29, 2018. Income from operations as a percentage of Michael Kors revenue declined 140 basis points from 21.8% for the three months ended September 29, 2018, to 20.4% during the three months ended September 28, 2019, largely due to a decrease in gross profit margin, as previously discussed.

Total Revenue
Total revenue increased $332 million, or 13.5%, to $2.788 billion for the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $2.456 billion for the six months ended September 29, 2018, which included net unfavorable foreign currency effects of approximately $36 million, primarily related to the weakening of the Euro, the Chinese Renminbi, the British Pound and the Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar during the six months ended September 28, 2019 as compared to the same prior year period. On a constant currency basis, our total revenue increased $368 million, or 15.0%. Total revenue for the six months ended September 28, 2019 includes approximately $435 million of incremental revenue attributable to Versace, which was acquired and consolidated into our results of operations effective December 31, 2018, offset in part by lower revenue from our Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo businesses, as compared to the prior year.

43

Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $194 million, or 12.8%, to $1.708 billion for the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $1.514 billion for the six months ended September 29, 2018, which included net unfavorable foreign currency effects of $24 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue decreased 30 basis points to 61.3% during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 61.6% during the six months ended September 29, 2018. The decrease in our gross profit margin was primarily attributable to lower gross profit margin for Michael Kors primarily driven by increased markdowns during the six months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to the six months ended September 29, 2018, partially offset by the inclusion of Versace, which benefited our gross margin 90 basis points.
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased $460 million, or 41.5%, to $1.569 billion during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $1.109 billion for the six months ended September 29, 2018, which included incremental operating expenses of $281 million associated with the recently acquired Versace business. Our operating expenses included a net favorable foreign currency impact of approximately $32 million. Total operating expenses increased to 56.3% as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 45.2% for the six months ended September 29, 2018. The components that comprise total operating expenses are explained below.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $262 million, or 27.3%, to $1.221 billion during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $959 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018. The increased in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to incremental costs of $251 million associated with the recently acquired Versace business, which has been consolidated in our operations beginning on December 31, 2018.
Corporate unallocated expenses, which are included within selling, general and administrative expenses discussed above, but are not directly attributable to a reportable segment, increased $23 million, or 51.1%, to $68 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019 as compared to $45 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 43.8% during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 39.0% for the six months ended September 29, 2018, primarily due to the inclusion of expenses associated with the Versace business and increased retail store and e-commerce related costs as a percentage of total revenue during the six months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to the six months ended September 29, 2018.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $16 million, or 14.7%, to $125 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $109 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to incremental depreciation and amortization expense of $29 million attributable to the Versace business (including amortization of purchase accounting adjustments), partially offset by lower depreciation due to previously recorded property and equipment impairment charges. Depreciation and amortization increased to 4.5% as a percentage of total revenue during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 4.4% for the six months ended September 29, 2018.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
During the six months ended September 28, 2019, we recognized long-lived asset impairment charges of $201 million, which primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets as part of our quarterly impairment assessments (see Note 13 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). During the six months ended September 29, 2018, we recognized long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately $11 million, which were related to underperforming Michael Kors retail store locations, some of which related to closures as part of our Retail Fleet Optimization Plan.
Restructuring and Other Charges
During the six months ended September 28, 2019, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $22 million, which included restructuring charges of $4 million, primarily related to Jimmy Choo lease-related charges and our Retail Fleet Optimization Plan, and other costs of $18 million. The other costs recorded during the six months ended September 28, 2019 included $13 million related to the acquisition of Versace and $5 million in connection with the Jimmy Choo acquisition (see Note 10 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).

44

During the six months ended September 29, 2018, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $30 million, which were primarily comprised of $23 million of other costs and restructuring charges of $7 million primarily recorded in connection with our Retail Fleet Optimization Plan. The other costs recorded during the six months ended September 29, 2018 included $14 million in connection with the Jimmy Choo acquisition and $9 million related to our agreement to acquire Versace. Restructuring and other charges are not evaluated as part of our reportable segments’ results (See Segment Information above for additional information).
Income from Operations
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations decreased $266 million or 65.7%, to $139 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $405 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018. Income from operations as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 5.0% during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to 16.5% for the six months ended September 29, 2018 (see Segment Information above for a reconciliation of our segment operating income to total operating income).
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net increased $2 million to $16 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $14 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018, primarily due to increased interest expense attributable to higher borrowings than in prior year (see Note 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). This increase was largely offset by a $34 million reduction to interest expense related to the cross-currency swap used in the net investment hedge during the six months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to $4 million during the six months ended September 29, 2018 (see Note 14 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).
Foreign Currency Loss
During the six months ended September 28, 2019, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $6 million, primarily attributable to the revaluation and settlement of certain of our accounts payable in currencies other than the functional currency, as well as the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.
During the six months ended September 29, 2018, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $36 million, primarily attributable to a $30 million unrealized loss related to a forward foreign currency exchange derivative contract to hedge the transaction price of the Jimmy Choo business.
Provision for Income Taxes
We recognized $2 million of income tax expense during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $34 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended September 28, 2019, was 1.7%, compared to 9.5% for the six months ended September 29, 2018. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily related to the realization of previously unrecognized tax benefits associated with certain positions in Europe realized during the period and return to provision adjustments in the US and Europe, offset by the unfavorable impact of tax deficits recognized on shared based compensation during the six months ended September 28, 2019 compared to the six months ended September 29, 2018.
Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.
Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
During the six months ended September 29, 2018, we recorded a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint ventures of $1 million. This loss represents the share of income that is not attributable to the Company.
Net Income Attributable to Capri
As a result of the foregoing, our net income decreased $206 million, or 63.6%, to $118 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $324 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018.

Income from operations as a percentage of Jimmy Choo revenue declined 410 basis points from 4.5% for the six months ended September 29, 2018, to 0.4% during the six months ended September 28, 2019, which was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses, including retail store related and advertising and marketing, as well as an increase in occupancy costs.

Revenues
Michael Kors revenues decreased $97 million, or 4.5%, to $2.070 billion during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $2.167 billion for the six months ended September 29, 2018, which included unfavorable foreign currency effects of $29 million. On a constant currency basis, revenue decreased $68 million, or 3.1%. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to:
		
•	an $84 million decrease in revenues, primarily driven by lower sales of women’s accessories, partially offset by increased sales of men’s apparel; and	
		
•	a decrease in comparable store sales of $15 million, including net unfavorable foreign currency effects of $16 million, which was primarily attributable to lower sales from our watches, women’s accessories and jewelry product categories, largely offset by higher sales from women’s footwear, women’s apparel and men’s accessories. Our comparable store sales benefited approximately 170 basis points from the inclusion of e-commerce sales.	
Income from Operations
Income from operations for our Michael Kors segment decreased $55 million, or 11.5%, to $423 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, compared to $478 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018. Income from operations as a percentage of Michael Kors revenue declined 170 basis points from 22.1% for the six months ended September 29, 2018, to 20.4% during the six months ended September 28, 2019, largely due to a decrease in gross profit margin, as previously discussed.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated from our operations, along with borrowings available under our credit facilities and available cash and cash equivalents. Our primary use of this liquidity is to fund our ongoing cash requirements, including working capital requirements, acquisitions, debt repayments, investment in information systems infrastructure, global retail store construction, expansion and renovation, distribution and corporate facilities, construction and renovation of shop-in-shops, share repurchases and other corporate activities. We believe that the cash generated from our operations, together with borrowings available under our revolving credit facility and available cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next 12 months, including investments made and expenses incurred in connection with our store growth plans, shop-in-shop growth, investments in corporate and distribution facilities, continued systems development, e-commerce and marketing initiatives. We spent $105 million on capital expenditures during the six months ended September 28, 2019, and expect to spend approximately $170 million on capital expenditures during the remainder of Fiscal 2020.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $21 million to $243 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to $264 million for the six months ended September 29, 2018, which was primarily due to decreases related to changes in our working capital.
Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased $13 million to $75 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, as compared to $62 million during the six months ended September 29, 2018, which was primarily attributable to higher capital expenditures of $15 million compared to prior year.
Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities decreased $45 million to $157 million during the six months ended September 28, 2019, from $202 million during the six months ended September 29, 2018, which was primarily attributable to a $105 million decrease in cash payments to repurchase our ordinary shares, partially offset by increased debt repayments of $40 million, net of debt borrowings.

(1) 	The 2018 Credit Facility contains customary events of default and requires us to maintain a leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter of no greater than 3.75 to 1, calculated as the ratio of the sum of total indebtedness as of the date of the measurement plus 6.0 times the consolidated rent expense for the last four consecutive fiscal quarters, to Consolidated EBITDAR for the last four consecutive fiscal quarters. Consolidated EBITDAR is defined as consolidated net income plus income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, consolidated rent expense and other non-cash charges, subject to certain deductions. The 2018 Credit Facility also includes other customary covenants that limit additional indebtedness, guarantees, liens, acquisitions and other investments and cash dividends. As of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants related to our agreements then in effect governing our debt.

(2) 	Recorded as short-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019.	
		
(3) 	Recorded as long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019, except for the current portion of $80 million outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan Facility, which was recorded within short-term debt at September 28, 2019 and March 30, 2019.	
We believe that our 2018 Credit Facility is adequately diversified with no undue concentration in any one financial institution. As of September 28, 2019, there were 18 financial institutions participating in the facility, with none maintaining a maximum commitment percentage in excess of 10%. We have no reason to believe that the participating institutions will be unable to fulfill their obligations to provide financing in accordance with the terms of the 2018 Credit Facility.
See Note 11 in the accompanying financial statements and Note 11 in our Fiscal 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for detailed information relating to our credit facilities and debt obligations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks during the normal course of our business, such as risk arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, as well as fluctuations in interest rates. In attempts to manage these risks, we employ certain strategies to mitigate the effect of these fluctuations. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to manage our foreign currency exposure to the fluctuations of certain foreign currencies. The use of these instruments primarily helps to manage our exposure to our foreign purchase commitments and better control our product costs. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
We are exposed to risks on certain purchase commitments to foreign suppliers based on the value of our purchasing subsidiaries’ local currency relative to the currency requirement of the supplier on the date of the commitment. As such, we enter into forward currency exchange contracts that generally mature in 12 months or less and are consistent with the related purchase commitments, to manage our exposure to the changes in the value of the Euro and the Canadian Dollar. These contracts are recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or liability, and are derivative contracts to hedge cash flow risks. Certain of these contracts are designated as hedges for hedge accounting purposes, while certain of these contracts, are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the changes in the fair value of the majority of these contracts at the balance sheet date are recorded in our equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and upon maturity (settlement) are recorded in, or reclassified into, our cost of sales or operating expenses, in our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income, as applicable to the transactions for which the forward currency exchange contracts were established.
We perform a sensitivity analysis on our forward currency contracts, both designated and not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, to determine the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For this sensitivity analysis, we assume a hypothetical change in U.S. Dollar against foreign exchange rates. Based on all foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding as of September 28, 2019, a 10% appreciation or devaluation of the U.S. Dollar compared to the level of foreign currency exchange rates for currencies under contract as of September 28, 2019, would result in a net increase and decrease, respectively, of approximately $14 million in the fair value of these contracts.
Net Investment Hedges
We are exposed to adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements related to interest from our net investment hedges. As of September 28, 2019, the net investment hedges have aggregate notional amounts of $3.190 billion to hedge our net investments in Euro-denominated subsidiaries, and $44 million to hedge our net investments in Japanese Yen-denominated subsidiaries against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and these currencies. Under the terms of these contracts, which mature between January 2022 and June 2026, we will exchange the semi-annual fixed rate payments made under our Senior Notes for fixed rate payments of 0% to 1.674% in Euros and 0.89% in Japanese Yen. Based on all net investment hedges outstanding as of September 28, 2019, a 10% appreciation or devaluation of the U.S. Dollar compared to the level of foreign currency exchange rates under contract as of September 28, 2019, would result in a potential net cash increase or decrease upon settlement of approximately $326 million in the fair value of these contracts, which have staggered maturities of 3 to 7 years.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk in relation to borrowings outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility, our 2018 Credit Facility, our Hong Kong Credit Facility, our Japan Credit Facility and our Versace Credit Facility. Our 2018 Term Loan Facility carries interest at a rate that is based on LIBOR. Our 2018 Credit Facility carries interest rates that are tied to LIBOR and the prime rate, among other institutional lending rates (depending on the particular origination of borrowing), as further described in Note 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Our Hong Kong Credit Facility carries interest at a rate that is tied to the Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate. Our China Credit Facility carries interest at a rate that is tied to the People’s Bank of China’s Benchmark lending rate. Our Japan Credit Facility carries interest at a rate posted by the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. Our Versace Credit Facility carries interest at a rate set by the bank on the date of borrowing that is tied to the European Central Bank. Therefore, our statements of operations and comprehensive income and cash flows are exposed to changes in those interest rates. At September 28, 2019, we had $513 million in short-term borrowings outstanding under our 2018 Credit Facility and $1.428 billion, net of debt issuance costs, outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility and $10 million outstanding under our Versace Credit Facility. At March 30, 2019, we had $539 million in short-term borrowings outstanding under our 2018 Credit Facility, $1.570 billion, net of debt issuance costs, outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility and $11 million outstanding under our Versace Credit Facility. These balances are not indicative of future balances that may be outstanding under our revolving credit facilities that may be subject to fluctuations in interest rates. Any increases in the applicable interest rate(s) would cause an increase to the interest expense relative to any outstanding balance at that date.

Credit Risk
We have outstanding $450 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due in 2024. The Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed rate equal to 4.000% per year, payable semi-annually. Our Senior Notes interest rate payable may be subject to adjustments from time to time if either Moody’s or S&P (or a substitute rating agency), downgrades (or downgrades and subsequent upgrades) the credit rating assigned to the Senior Notes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 28, 2019. This evaluation was performed based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), the 2013 Framework. Based on this assessment, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 28, 2019 are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, we implemented additional internal controls in connection with our adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), none of which materially affected our internal control over financial reporting. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended September 28, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are involved in various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of our business. We believe that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. These risks are not the only risks that we face. Our business operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.

4.     General Release. (a) In consideration for the payment to be provided to you pursuant to paragraph 2 above, and for other valuable consideration as set forth in the Agreement, you, for yourself and for your heirs, executors, administrators, trustees, legal representatives and assigns (hereinafter referred to collectively as "Releasors"), forever release and discharge the Company and its past, present and future parent entities, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates and related business entities, successors and assigns, assets, employee benefit and/or pension plans or funds (including qualified and non-qualified plans or funds), and any of its or their respective past, present and/or future directors, officers, fiduciaries, agents, trustees, administrators, employees, insurers, attorneys and assigns, whether acting on behalf of the Company or in their individual capacities (collectively the "Company Entities") from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, fees and liabilities of any kind whatsoever (upon any legal or equitable theory, whether contractual, common-law, statutory, federal, state, local, or otherwise), whether known or unknown, which you ever had, now have, or may have against any of the Company Entities by reason of any act, omission, transaction, practice, plan, policy, procedure, conduct, occurrence, or other matter up to and including the date on which you sign this Agreement.

However , no notice shall be required if you are prohibited from providing such notice by law or to the extent such notice would be deemed to interfere with or chill your rights not waived in paragraph 4(c).

8.    Confidentiality of Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement are and shall be deemed to be confidential, and you agree, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, rule, code or regulation, not to disclose any thereof to any person or entity without the prior written consent of the Company, except if required by law, and to your accountants, attorneys and/or spouse. However, you acknowledge and agree that if you disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to your accountant, attorneys and/or your spouse, you shall inform each such person about the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and that such disclosure is made on the condition that such information be treated as strictly confidential.

9.    Confidential Information; Non-Solicitation; Non-Compete. (a) You acknowledge that during the course of your employment with the Company and/or any of the Company Entities, you have had access to information relating to the Company and/or the Company Entities and their respective business that is not generally known by persons not employed by the Company and/or the Company Entities and that could not easily be determined or learned by someone outside of the Company and/or the Company Entities ("Confidential Information"). Except as required by law or in connection with any future ethics, legal or other investigation of wrong doing or illegality conducted by any governmental agency, you agree not to disclose or use such Confidential Information at any time in the future and you further agree not to trade in securities of the Company on the basis of material non-public information or disclose material non-public information to others who then trade in securities of the Company on the basis of such information.

You further represent that you have paid all personal charges that may have been made on any Company credit card and submitted accurate expense reports with appropriate documentation of all business expenses through the Termination Date.

13.    Interpretation. Should any provision of this Agreement require interpretation or construction, it is agreed by the parties that the entity interpreting or constructing this Agreement shall not apply a presumption against one party by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the party who prepared the document.
