FINANCIAL CONDITION
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements included under Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, in this report, as well as statements in
future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"), in the Company's press releases and oral statements made by or with the

income, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. Forward looking
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot

including, without limitation, the following: general economic and business
conditions which may impact disposable income of consumers, competitive products
and pricing, ability to enforce intellectual property rights, seasonality,
availability of alternative sources of supply in the case of loss of any
significant supplier, the Company's dependence on key officers, continued
availability to the Company of financing and credit on favorable terms and
success of hedging strategies in respect of currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Results of Operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2000 as compared
to the nine months ended October 31, 1999.
Net Sales. Comparative net sales by product class were as follows:

Other.................................................. 29,556 25,215

Net Sales.............................................. $234,634 $216,223
======== ========
Net sales increased by $18.4 million or 8.5% for the nine months ended
October 31, 2000 as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 1999. Domestic
wholesale sales of our brands increased by $13.4 million or 8.9% while
international wholesale sales increased by $.6 million or 1.6%. All of our
domestic brands posted sales increases led by double digit gains in our Movado
and ESQ brands. International sales increases were led by growth in our Concord
and Coach Watch brands. International sales were negatively impacted by
approximately $4.3 million due to changes in currency translation rates.
Other net sales, which include our Company outlet stores, Movado Boutiques
and our after sales service business, increased by $4.3 million or 17.2%. Growth
in the other sales category was primarily attributable to comparable store sales
increases in our outlets and Boutiques and new store openings.
Gross Margin. Gross profit for the nine months ended October 31, 2000 was
$143.0 million (61.0% of net sales) as compared to $131.9 million (61.0% of net
sales) for the nine months ended October 31, 1999, an increase of $11.1 million
or 8.4%. This increase was attributable to sales increases.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative
expenses for the nine months ended October 31, 2000 were $115.4 million or 49.2%
of net sales, an 11.4% increase over the $103.6 million or 47.9% of net sales in
the first nine months of last year. The 11.4% increase was primarily
attributable to an
7
9
increase in advertising and marketing expenses to promote retail sell-through of
our brands as well as the factors discussed below in the review of the three
month results of operations.
Interest Expense. Net interest expense increased $1.0 million or 26.6%.
The increase in interest costs reflects higher interest rates on borrowings
under the Company's bank lines of credit, an increase in average outstanding
working capital borrowings and a reduction in interest income due to lower
invested cash balances. These factors were somewhat mitigated by reduced
interest costs on long-term debt due to the repayment of $5.0 million of Senior
Notes in January 2000.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $5.7 million for the nine months ended
October 31, 2000 decreased as compared to $6.7 million for the nine months ended
October 31, 1999. Income taxes in the prior year also included a provision for
taxes of $1.1 million on the gain of the Company's sale of its Piaget
distribution business. Taxes were recorded at the Company's expected annual
effective tax rate for fiscal 2001 of 25% as compared to a 23% rate for fiscal
2000.
Results of Operations for the three months ended October 31, 2000 as compared
to the three months ended October 31, 1999.
Net sales. Comparative net sales by product class were as follows:
THREE MONTHS ENDED

Concord, Movado, Coach and ESQ
Domestic.............................................. $ 79,072 $70,507

Other................................................... 10,521 10,381
-------- -------
Net Sales............................................... $105,122 $99,032
======== =======
Net sales increased by $6.1 million or 6.2% for the three months ended
October 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 1999.
Domestic wholesale sales of our brands increased by $8.6 million or 12.2% led by
double digit increases in the Movado and ESQ brands. Concord sales increased at
a low single digit percentage rate and were negatively impacted by delays in
product deliveries due to extended lead times in the manufacturing of certain
components. International sales decreased by $2.6 million or 14.4% due primarily
to the negative impact of changes in foreign currency translation rates of
approximately $2.2 million. International sales of Concord were also negatively
impacted by delays in product deliveries due to extended lead times in the
manufacturing of certain components. Sales of Coach Watch for the three months
ended October 31, 2000 increased at a double digit rate led by significant
increases in international sales due to increased penetration of the Japan and
duty free channels.
Other net sales, which include our Company outlet stores, Movado Boutiques
and our after sales service business, increased by $.1 million or 1.3%. Growth
in the other sales category was attributable to both comparable store sales
increases in our Boutiques and new store openings in our Outlets and Boutiques
of $.9 million or 9.5%. Prior year third quarter sales included $0.8 million in
sales from discontinued brands.
Gross Margin. Gross profit for the three months ended October 31, 2000 was
$65.2 million (62.0% of net sales) as compared to $61.6 million (62.2% of net
sales) for the three months ended October 31, 1999, an increase of $3.6 million
or 5.8%. This increase was attributable to sales increases.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative
expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2000 were $46.7 million or 44.5%
of net sales, a 9.6% increase over the $42.6 million or 43.1% of net sales in
the third quarter of last year. The 9.6% increase was attributable to expenses
in connection with the ongoing implementation of the Company's growth
initiatives, increases in certain variable costs resulting from sales growth and
increases in certain general and administrative costs. Additional expenses
associated with the Company's growth initiatives included the opening of
additional outlet stores, expenses related to the opening of two Movado
Boutiques, expenses associated with the planned launch of the new
8
10
Tommy Hilfiger watch line in Spring 2001 and initial expenses associated with
the Company's new Moonachie, New Jersey distribution center. Variable cost
increases associated with sales growth were primarily in the areas of selling
commissions and product distribution costs. General and administrative cost
increases were primarily related to depreciation of new information systems
implemented in Fiscal 2001 and certain employee benefit costs.
Interest Expense. Net interest expense for the three months ended October
31, 2000 increased $0.6 million or 52.7%. The increase in interest costs
reflects higher interest rates on borrowings under the Company's bank lines of
credit, an increase in average bank borrowings and a reduction in interest
income for the quarter due to lower invested cash balances. These factors were
somewhat mitigated by lower interest costs on long-term debt due to the
repayment of $5.0 million of Senior Notes in January 2000.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $4.2 million for the three months
ended October 31, 2000 increased as compared to $4.1 million for the three
months ended October 31, 1999. Taxes were recorded at the Company's expected
annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2001 of 25% as compared to a 23% rate for
fiscal 2000.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL POSITION
Cash flows used in operating activities for the nine months ended October
31, 2000 were $23.1 million as compared to the use of $6.9 million for the nine
months ended October 31, 1999. The increase in cash used in operating activities
was primarily attributable to increases in accounts receivable and inventory
associated with sales growth.
The Company used $7.7 million of cash for investing activities for the nine
months ended October 31, 2000 as compared to generating $19.4 million in cash
from investing activities for the nine months ended October 31, 1999. Cash
generated from investing activities in the prior year resulted primarily from
the sale of the Piaget distribution business in February 1999 for $28.4 million.
Capital expenditures for the first nine months were $7.0 million compared to
$7.8 million in the prior year with the reduction attributable to lower
information system outlays as the Company nears completion of implementation of
a new enterprise wide information system offset somewhat by increases in
expenditures for retail expansion.
Cash generated from financing activities amounted to $16.2 million for the
nine months ended October 31, 2000 as compared to $2.7 million used in financing
activities for the comparable prior year period. The increase is attributable to
increased bank borrowings due to a reduction in cash balances available to fund
working capital requirements. This increase is offset somewhat by a reduction in
share repurchase activity and the absence, in the first nine months of fiscal
2001, of a sinking fund requirement associated with the Company's Senior Notes.
At October 31, 2000, the Company had two series of Senior Notes
outstanding. Senior Notes due January 31, 2005 which were originally issued in a
private placement completed in fiscal 1994. These notes have required annual
principal payments of $5.0 million since January 1998. The Company repaid $5.0
million principal amount of these notes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 and
is scheduled to repay an additional $5.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2001. At October 31, 2000, $25 million in principal amount of these notes
remained outstanding.
During fiscal 1999, the Company issued $25 million of Series A Senior Notes
under a Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement dated November 30, 1998. This
agreement allows for the issuance for up to two years from the date of the
agreement of Senior Promissory Notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to
$50 million with maturities up to 12 years from their original date of issuance.
These notes bear interest at 6.90%, mature on October 30, 2010 and are subject
to annual repayments of $5.0 million commencing October 31, 2006. The Company is
presently negotiating an extension of the shelf debt facility and expects to
complete an extension before the end of fiscal 2001.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company completed the renewal
of its revolving credit and working capital lines with its bank group. The new
agreement provides for a three-year $100 million unsecured revolving line of
credit and $15.0 million of uncommitted working capital lines. At October 31,
2000, the
9
11
Company had $37.8 million of outstanding borrowings under its bank lines as
compared to $20.0 million at October 31, 1999. The increase in borrowings at the
end of the third quarter as compared to the prior year period was primarily the
result of a reduction in cash balances available to fund seasonal working
capital requirements.
Under a series of share repurchase authorizations approved by the Board of
Directors, the Company has maintained a discretionary buy-back program. Current
year repurchases under this program amounted to $7.3 million. The Company has
remaining Board authorization to spend up to $4.5 million more for the
repurchase of additional shares of its common stock.
The Company paid dividends of $863,000 for the first nine months of fiscal
2001 compared to $942,000 in the first nine months of last year. The decrease is
attributable to a reduction in outstanding shares related to the share
repurchase programs described above.
Cash and cash equivalents at October 31, 2000 amounted to $11.2 million
compared to $15.3 million at October 31, 1999. The reduction in cash related
primarily to the funding of the Company's share repurchase program, repayment of
$5 million of long-term debt in January 2000 and reduction of bank borrowings.
Debt to total capitalization at October 31, 2000 was 33.9% as compared to 25.5%
at October 31, 1999.
YEAR 2000
The Company experienced no significant problems relating to the Year 2000
issue in the first nine months of this year. The Company does not foresee any
problems for the remainder of 2000; however, if not all Year 2000 issues have
been identified or foreseen, there can be no assurance that such issues will not
materially adversely impact the Company's results of operations or adversely
affect the Company's relationships with customers, vendors, or others.
