NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with Urban Outfitters, Inc.s (the Companys) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2016.
The Companys business experiences seasonal fluctuations and realizes greater net sales and operating income in the fourth quarter of each year reflecting the year-end holiday period. Historically, and consistent with the retail industry, this seasonality also impacts our working capital requirements, particularly with regard to inventory. Accordingly, the results of operations for the three and six months ended July 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The Companys fiscal year ends on January 31. All references in these notes to the Companys fiscal years refer to the fiscal years ended on January 31 in those years. For example, the Companys fiscal year 2017 will end on January 31, 2017.
2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update that introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. This includes loan commitments, accounts receivable, trade receivables, and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The guidance also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The update will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects this update may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that makes several modifications to the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the requirement to recognize excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement rather than in additional-paid-in capital. The guidance also clarifies the classification of components of share-based awards on the statement of cash flows. The update will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2017 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects this update may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting. This update requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases with terms of more than twelve months. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. The update will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The update requires a modified retrospective transition approach, which includes a number of practical expedients. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects this update may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
6
In July 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that clarifies the measurement of inventory. The update applies to entities which utilize the first-in, first-out (FIFO) and average cost methods of measuring inventory and states that an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less costs associated with completion, disposal and transportation. The update will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2017 and early adoption is permitted. The update is to be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects this update may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The update outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The update states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in the amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. Entities are required to apply the following steps when recognizing revenue under the update: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligation in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The update allows for a full retrospective adoption, meaning the update is applied to all periods presented, or a modified retrospective adoption, meaning the update is applied only to the most current periods presented in the financial statements. In August 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which approved a one-year deferral of the effective date that allows the Company to defer the effective date to February 1, 2018, but still permits the Company to adopt the update as of the original February 1, 2017 effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the adoption method to apply and the impact that the update will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
3. Acquisition
On February 1, 2016, the Company acquired certain assets of the Vetri Family group of restaurants, headquartered in Philadelphia, PA, for a total aggregate purchase price of approximately $18,937, of which $15,325 was in cash, $2,687 was satisfied through the settlement of a note receivable and up to an additional $925 in cash that will be paid in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. No liabilities were assumed. Pro forma information related to this acquisition is not included because the impact on the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is not considered to be material.

Proceeds from the sales and maturities of available-for-sale securities were $109,357 and $213,930 for the six months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company included in Other income (expense), net, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, net realized gains of $9 and $22 for the three and six months ended July 31, 2016, respectively, and net realized gains of $39 and $42 for the three and six months ended July 31, 2015, respectively. Amortization of discounts and premiums, net, resulted in a reduction of Other income (expense), net of $567 and $1,161 for the three and six months ended July 31, 2016, and $1,042 and $2,158 for the three and six months ended July 31, 2015, respectively. Mutual funds represent assets held in an irrevocable rabbi trust for the Companys Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (NQDC). These assets are a source of funds to match the funding obligations to participants in the NQDC but are subject to the Companys general creditors. The Company elected the fair value option for financial assets for the mutual funds held in the rabbi trust resulting in all unrealized gains and losses being recorded in Other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
5. Fair Value
The Company utilizes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach that relate to its financial assets and financial liabilities). The levels of the hierarchy are described as follows:
| Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
| Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Companys own assumptions. |
9
Managements assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The Companys financial assets that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the tables below:

Financial assets
Level 1 assets consist of financial instruments whose value has been based on inputs that use, as their basis, readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services and brokers.
Level 2 assets consist of financial instruments whose value has been based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 assets consist of financial instruments where there has been no active market. The Company held no Level 3 financial instruments as of July 31, 2016, January 31, 2016 and July 31, 2015.
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents (Level 1) approximates carrying value since cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months at the time
10
of purchase. As of July 31, 2016 and 2015, cash and cash equivalents included cash on hand, cash in banks, money market accounts and marketable securities with maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase. The fair value of debt approximates its carrying value as it is all variable rate debt.
Non-financial assets
The Companys non-financial assets, primarily consisting of property and equipment, are periodically tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
The fair value of the non-financial assets was determined using a discounted cash flow model that utilized Level 3 inputs. The Companys stores are reviewed for impairment at the store level, which is the lowest level at which individual cash flows can be identified. In calculating future cash flows, the Company makes estimates regarding future operating results based on its experience and knowledge of market factors in which the store is located. For the three and six months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015, impairment charges were zero.
6. Debt
On July 1, 2015, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into a five-year asset-based revolving Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement) with certain lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as joint lead arrangers and co-book managers.
The Credit Agreement provides senior secured revolving credit for loans and letters of credit up to $400,000 (the Credit Facility), subject to a borrowing base that is comprised of the Companys eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The Credit Facility includes a swing-line sub-facility, a multicurrency sub-facility and the option to expand the facility by up to $150,000.
The Credit Facility provides for interest on borrowings, at the Companys option, at either (i) adjusted LIBOR, CDOR or EURIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.625%, or (ii) an adjusted ABR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.625%, each such rate based on the level of availability under the Credit Facility and the Companys adjusted leverage ratio. Interest is payable either monthly or quarterly depending on the type of borrowing. A commitment fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Credit Facility based on the Companys adjusted leverage ratio.
All obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest in inventory, accounts receivable, and certain other assets of the borrowers and guarantors. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, negative and affirmative covenants and provisions relating to events of default.
As of July 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all terms of the Credit Agreement, borrowings on the Credit Facility totaled approximately $50,000 and stand-by letters of credit outstanding were $13,525.
Additionally, the Company has borrowing agreements with two separate financial institutions under which the Company may borrow an aggregate of $130,000 for the purposes of trade letter of credit issuances. The availability of any future borrowings under the trade letter of credit facilities is subject to acceptance by the respective financial institutions. As of July 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding trade letters of credit of $67,561, and available trade letters of credit of $62,439 under these facilities.

7. Share-Based Compensation
The Company maintains stock incentive plans pursuant to which it can grant restricted shares, unrestricted shares, incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), performance stock units (PSUs) or stock appreciation rights (SARs). A lattice binomial pricing model was used to estimate the fair values of stock options and SARs. The fair value of each of the PSUs was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. Share-based compensation expense included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, for the three and six months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

For the three months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015, awards to purchase 1,097,875 common shares with an exercise price range of $28.10 to $46.02 and 559,875 common shares with an exercise price of $36.07 to $46.02, respectively, were excluded from the Companys computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015, awards to purchase 1,007,938 common shares with an exercise price range of $28.10 to $46.02 and 329,938 common shares with an exercise price of $36.07 to $46.02, respectively, were excluded from the Companys computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share as of July 31, 2016 and 2015 were 3,886,315 and 2,047,250 performance-based equity awards, respectively, since they did not meet the required performance criteria.
11. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is party to various legal proceedings arising from normal business activities. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

12. Segment Reporting
The Company is a portfolio of global consumer brands that offer lifestyle-oriented general merchandise and consumer products and services with two reportable segmentsRetail and Wholesale. The Companys Retail segment consists of the aggregation of its six brands operating under the names Anthropologie, Bhldn, Free People, Terrain, Urban Outfitters and Vetri Family. The Anthropologie, Bhldn, and Terrain brands make up the Anthropologie Group. As of July 31, 2016, there were 240 Urban Outfitters stores, 220 Anthropologie Group stores, 121 Free People stores and seven Vetri Family restaurants. Urban Outfitters, the Anthropologie Group, and Free People, including their retail stores and direct-to-consumer channels, and Vetri Family are each considered an operating segment. Net sales from the Retail segment accounted for approximately 91.6% and 91.7% of total consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended July 31, 2016, respectively. Net sales from the Retail segment accounted for approximately 91.7% and 92.2% of total consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended July 31, 2015, respectively. The remaining net sales are derived from the Companys Wholesale segment that distributes apparel and shoes to approximately 1,800 better department and specialty retailers worldwide and to the Retail segment.
The Company has aggregated its brands into the Retail segment based upon their shared management, customer base and economic characteristics. Reporting in this format provides management with the financial information necessary to evaluate the success of the segments and the overall business. The Company evaluates the performance of the segments based on the net sales and pre-tax income from operations (excluding intercompany charges) of the segment. Corporate expenses include expenses incurred and directed by the corporate office that are not allocated to segments. The principal identifiable assets for each reporting segment are inventory and property and equipment.
Other assets are comprised primarily of general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, deferred taxes and prepaid expenses, which are typically not allocated to the Companys segments. The Company accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales and transfers were made to third parties making similar volume purchases.
The Companys omni-channel strategy enhances its customers brand experience by providing a seamless approach to the customer shopping experience. All available shopping channels are fully integrated, including stores, websites, mobile applications and catalogs. The Companys investments in areas such as marketing campaigns and technology advancements are designed to generate demand for the omni-channel and not the separate store or direct-to-consumer channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from that stores inventory, but may also be shipped from any of the Companys fulfillment centers or from a different store location if an item is not available at the original store. Direct-to-consumer orders are primarily shipped to the Companys customers through its fulfillment centers, but may also be shipped from any store, or a combination of fulfillment centers and stores depending on the availability of a particular item. Direct-to-consumer orders may also be picked up at a store location. Customers may also return certain merchandise purchased through direct-to-consumer channels at store locations. As the Companys customers continue to shop across multiple channels, the Company has adapted its approach towards meeting this demand. Due to the availability of like product in a variety of shopping channels, the Company sources these products utilizing single stock keeping units based on the omni-channel demand rather than the demand of the separate channels. These and other technological capabilities allow the Company to better serve its customers and help it to complete a sale that otherwise may not have occurred due to out-of-stock positions. As a result of changing customer behavior and the substantial integration of the operations of the Companys store and direct-to-consumer channels, the Company manages and analyzes its performance based on a single omni-channel rather than separate channels and believes that the omni-channel results present the most meaningful and appropriate measure of the Companys performance.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the policies described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016. Both the Retail and
15
Wholesale segments are highly diversified. No one customer constitutes more than 10% of the Companys total consolidated net sales. A summary of the information about the Companys operations by segment is as follows:

Overview
We operate two reportable segments: a leading lifestyle specialty Retail segment and a Wholesale segment. Our Retail segment consists of our Anthropologie, Bhldn, Free People, Terrain, Urban Outfitters and Vetri Family brands. Our Retail segment consumer products and services are sold directly to our customers through our stores, websites, mobile applications, catalogs and customer contact centers. Our Wholesale segment consists of the Free People wholesale division that primarily designs, develops and markets young womens contemporary casual apparel and shoes through individual and chain specialty stores and department stores.
Our fiscal year ends on January 31. All references to our fiscal years refer to the fiscal years ended on January 31 in those years. For example, our fiscal year 2017 will end on January 31, 2017.
Retail Segment
Our omni-channel strategy enhances our customers brand experience by providing a seamless approach to the customer shopping experience. All available shopping channels are fully integrated, including stores, websites, mobile applications and catalogs. Our investments in areas such as marketing campaigns and technology advancements are designed to generate demand for the omni-channel and not the separate store or direct-to-consumer channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from that stores inventory, but may also be shipped from any of our fulfillment centers or from a different store location if an item is not available at the original store. Direct-to-consumer orders are primarily shipped to our customers through our fulfillment centers, but may also be shipped from any store, or a combination of fulfillment centers and stores depending on the availability of particular items. Direct-to-consumer orders may also be picked up at a store location. Customers may also return certain merchandise purchased through direct-to-consumer channels at store locations. As our
17
customers continue to shop across multiple channels, we have adapted our approach towards meeting this demand. Due to the availability of like product in a variety of shopping channels, we source these products utilizing single stock keeping units based on the omni-channel demand rather than the demand of the separate channels. These and other technological capabilities allow us to better serve our customers and help us complete sales that otherwise may not have occurred due to out-of-stock positions. As a result of changing customer behavior and the substantial integration of the operations of our store and direct-to-consumer channels, we manage and analyze our performance based on a single omni-channel rather than separate channels and believe that the omni-channel results present the most meaningful and appropriate measure of our performance.
Our comparable Retail segment net sales data is equal to the sum of our comparable store and comparable direct-to-consumer channel net sales. A store is considered to be comparable if it has been open at least twelve full months, unless it was materially expanded or remodeled within that year or was not otherwise operating at its full capacity within that year. A direct-to-consumer channel is considered to be comparable if it has been operational for at least twelve full months. There is no overlap between comparable store net sales and comparable direct-to-consumer net sales. Sales from stores and direct-to-consumer channels that do not fall within the definition of comparable store or channel are considered to be non-comparable. The effects of foreign currency translation are also considered non-comparable.
We monitor customer traffic at our stores, and customer sessions, average order value and conversion rates on our websites. We believe that changes in any of these metrics may be caused by a response to our brands fashion offerings, our marketing campaigns, circulation of our catalogs and an overall growth in brand recognition as we expand our store base.
As of July 31, 2016, we operated 240 Urban Outfitters stores of which 178 were located in the United States, 18 were located in Canada and 44 were located in Europe. For the six months ended July 31, 2016, we opened one store located in Europe and closed one store located in the United States. Total store selling square footage increased 1.0% over the prior year period to 2.2 million square feet. Urban Outfitters operates websites in North America and Europe that capture the spirit of the brand by offering a similar yet broader selection of merchandise as found in our stores. Urban Outfitters offers a catalog in Europe offering select merchandise, most of which is also available in our Urban Outfitters stores. Urban Outfitters targets young adults aged 18 to 28 through a unique merchandise mix, compelling store environment and websites. Urban Outfitters product offering includes womens and mens fashion apparel, intimates, footwear, beauty and accessories, home goods, activewear and gear, electronics, as well as an assortment of exclusive product through collaborations with global third-party brands. We plan to open additional stores over the next several years. Urban Outfitters North American and European Retail segment net sales accounted for approximately 32.0% and 7.5% of consolidated net sales, respectively, for the six months ended July 31, 2016, compared to 32.0% and 7.7%, respectively, for the comparable period in fiscal 2016.
The Anthropologie Group consists of the Anthropologie, Bhldn and Terrain brands. We initially operated the Bhldn and Terrain brands as standalone concepts and opened two Bhldn stores and two Terrain garden centers. We ultimately determined that the Bhldn and Terrain brands were complementary to the Anthropologie brand and integrated those brands into the Anthropologie Group during fiscal 2015 and 2016, respectively. As of July 31, 2016, we operated 220 Anthropologie Group stores, of which 199 were located in the United States, 12 were located in Canada and nine were located in Europe. For the six months ended July 31, 2016, we opened three new Anthropologie Group stores, and we closed one store, all located in the United States. Total store selling square footage increased 5.7% over the prior year period to 1.6 million square feet. The Anthropologie Group operates websites in North America and Europe that capture the spirit of our brands by offering a similar yet broader selection of merchandise as found in our stores. The Anthropologie brand offers registry services through our website and mobile applications and in all of our stores throughout the United States, allowing our customers to create gift registries for any occasion. In addition, the brand offers catalogs in North America and Europe that market select merchandise, most of which is also available in our Anthropologie brand stores. Merchandise at the Anthropologie brand is tailored to sophisticated and contemporary women aged 28 to 45.
18
Product assortment includes womens casual apparel and accessories, intimates, shoes, beauty, home furnishings and a diverse array of gifts and decorative items. The Bhldn brand emphasizes every element that contributes to a wedding. The Bhldn brand offers a curated collection of heirloom quality wedding gowns, bridesmaid frocks, party dresses, assorted jewelry, headpieces, footwear, lingerie and decorations. In addition to two standalone Bhldn stores, we operate shop-within-shop locations within certain Anthropologie brand stores that offer a comparable product assortment to our Bhldn stores and website. The Terrain brand is designed to appeal to women and men interested in a creative and sophisticated outdoor living and gardening experience. Merchandise includes lifestyle home and garden products combined with antiques, live plants, flowers, wellness products and accessories. Both Terrain garden centers also offer a full service restaurant and coffee bar. We plan to open additional Anthropologie brand stores over the next several years, some of which will include Bhldn or Terrain shop-within-shop concepts. Some of the new Anthropologie brand stores will be expanded format stores that allow us to present a broader product offering in expanded categories such as petites, jewelry and accessories, footwear, intimates, beauty and home furnishings. The Anthropologie Groups North American and European Retail segment net sales accounted for approximately 39.9% and 1.5% of consolidated net sales, respectively, for the six months ended July 31, 2016, compared to 40.9% and 1.6%, respectively, for the comparable period in fiscal 2016.
As of July 31, 2016, we operated 121 Free People stores, of which 115 were located in the United States and six were located in Canada. For the six months ended July 31, 2016, we opened eight new Free People stores, seven located in the United States and one located in Canada, and we closed one Free People store located in the United States. Total store selling square footage increased 29.7% over the prior year period to 229,000 square feet. The increase in selling square footage compared to the prior year period was a result of operating 13 net new stores and the addition of expanded format stores that were not in operation during the prior year period. Free People operates websites in North America, Europe and Asia that capture the spirit of the brand by offering a similar yet broader selection of merchandise as found in our stores, as well as substantially all of the Free People wholesale offerings. Free People also offers a catalog that markets select merchandise, most of which is also available in our Free People stores. Free People focuses its product offering on private label merchandise targeted to young contemporary women aged 25 to 30. Free People provides a unique merchandise mix of casual womens apparel, intimates, shoes, activewear, accessories, home products and gifts. We plan to open additional stores over the next several years. Some of the new Free People stores will be expanded format stores that allow us to present an expanded assortment of intimates, shoes, party dresses and activewear (FP Movement). Free Peoples Retail segment net sales accounted for approximately 10.4% of consolidated net sales for the six months ended July 31, 2016, compared to approximately 10.0% for the comparable period in fiscal 2016.
In February 2016, we acquired six restaurants as part of our acquisition of the Vetri Family group of restaurants. For the six months ended July 31, 2016, we opened one Vetri Family restaurant. The Vetri Family operates restaurants under the names Amis, Alla Spina, Lo Spiedo, Pizzeria Vetri and Osteria. The Vetri Family focuses on a dining experience that provides excellence in food, beverage and service. The Vetri Family restaurants net sales accounted for less than 1.0% of consolidated net sales for the six months ended July 31, 2016.
We plan to open approximately 31 new stores during fiscal 2017, including our restaurant locations. For the year we are planning on opening four Urban Outfitters stores, ten Anthropologie Group stores and 14 Free People stores. We are also planning on opening two new Pizzeria Vetri restaurants and one café adjacent to an Anthropologie expanded format store.
Wholesale Segment
Our Wholesale segment consists of the Free People wholesale division that designs, develops and markets young womens contemporary casual apparel and shoes, that are sold through approximately 1,800 better department and specialty stores worldwide, and our own Free People stores. Our Wholesale segment net sales accounted for approximately 8.3% of consolidated net sales for the six months ended July 31, 2016, compared to 7.8% for the comparable period in fiscal 2016.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses during the reporting period.
Our senior management has reviewed the critical accounting policies and estimates with our Audit Committee. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2016. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and require managements most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. If actual results were to differ significantly from estimates made, the reported results could be materially affected. We are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would cause our actual results to be materially different from our estimates. We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended July 31, 2016.

Three Months Ended July 31, 2016 Compared To Three Months Ended July 31, 2015
Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 increased by 2.7% to $890.6 million, from $867.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The $23.1 million increase was attributable to a $20.0 million, or 2.5%, increase in Retail segment net sales and a $3.1 million, or 4.3%, increase in our Wholesale segment net sales. Retail segment net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 accounted for 91.6% of total net sales compared to 91.7% of total net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
The growth in our Retail segment net sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was due to an increase of $8.2 million, or 1.1%, in Retail segment comparable net sales, which includes our direct-to-consumer channel, and an increase of $11.8 million in non-comparable and new store net sales. Retail segment comparable net sales
20
increased 5.2% at Urban Outfitters, was flat at Free People and declined 2.5% at the Anthropologie Group. The increase in Retail segment comparable net sales was driven by continued growth in the direct-to-consumer channel, which was partially offset by negative comparable store net sales. Direct-to-consumer net sales increases were driven by an increase in sessions and conversion rate, while average order value decreased. Negative comparable store net sales resulted from a reduction in transactions and average unit selling price, while units per transaction were flat. The increase in net sales attributable to non-comparable and new stores was primarily the result of operating 43 new stores during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 that were not in operation for the full comparable quarter in fiscal 2016 including sales from the newly acquired Vetri Family restaurants. Thus far during the third quarter of fiscal 2017, comparable Retail segment net sales are flat.
The increase in Wholesale segment net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2016, was primarily due to increased sales to department stores, driven by increased selling square footage at select department stores and growth in our European accounts. Wholesale sales growth was driven by an increase in units that was partially offset by a decrease in average unit selling price.
Gross profit percentage for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 increased to 38.5% of net sales, from 36.7% of net sales in the comparable quarter in fiscal 2016. Gross profit dollars increased to $342.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $318.1 million in the comparable quarter in fiscal 2016. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by improvement in the Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie Group merchandise margins, with both delivering higher initial margins and lower merchandise markdowns compared to the prior year. The percentage increase was partially offset by a lower gross profit rate at Free People as a result of lower merchandise margins due to higher merchandise markdowns. The dollar increase in gross profit was primarily due to higher net sales and the increase in gross profit percentage. Total inventory at July 31, 2016 decreased by $17.2 million, or 4.5%, to $367.2 million from $384.4 million at July 31, 2015. The decrease in total inventory is primarily related to the decline in comparable Retail segment inventory, which decreased 4.4% at cost.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 to 25.2% of net sales, compared to 24.7% of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by an increase in direct marketing and technology related expenses to support our direct-to-consumer growth and direct store controllable expenses to support our 4.1% square footage growth. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $9.9 million, or 4.6%, to $224.3 million, in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, from $214.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The dollar increase versus the prior year was primarily related to the operating expenses of new and non-comparable stores, increased marketing expense to support our customer acquisition and retention efforts, and an increase in technology expenses that were used to support our omni-channel initiatives.
Income from operations increased to 13.3% of net sales, or $118.2 million, for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to 12.0%, or $103.8 million, for the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
Our effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was 35.5% of income before income taxes compared to 35.2% of income before income taxes in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
Six Months Ended July 31, 2016 Compared To Six Months Ended July 31, 2015
Net sales for the six months ended July 31, 2016 increased by 2.9% to $1.65 billion, from $1.61 billion in the comparable period of fiscal 2016. The $46.7 million increase was attributable to a $35.2 million, or 2.4%, increase in Retail segment net sales and an $11.5 million, or 9.1%, increase in our Wholesale segment net sales. Retail segment net sales for the six months ended July 31, 2016 accounted for 91.7% of total net sales compared to 92.2% of total net sales during the six months ended July 31, 2015.
21
The growth in Retail segment net sales during the first six months of fiscal 2017 was driven by an increase of $14.6 million, or 1.0%, in Retail segment comparable net sales, which includes our direct-to-consumer channel, and a $20.6 million increase in non-comparable and new store net sales. Retail segment comparable net sales increased 4.0% at Urban Outfitters, and decreased 0.9% and 1.3% at Free People and the Anthropologie Group, respectively. The increase in the Retail segment comparable net sales was driven by continued growth in the direct-to-consumer channel, partially offset by negative comparable store net sales. Direct-to-consumer net sales were driven by an increase in sessions and conversion rate, while average order value decreased. Negative comparable store net sales resulted from a reduction in transactions and average unit selling price, while units per transaction were flat. The increase in net sales attributable to non-comparable and new stores was primarily the result of operating 50 new stores during the first half of fiscal 2017 that were not in operation for the full comparable first half of fiscal 2016 and sales from the newly acquired Vetri Family restaurants.
The increase in Wholesale segment net sales during the first six months of fiscal 2017, as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2016, was primarily due to increased sales to department and specialty stores, driven by increased selling square footage at select department stores and growth in our European distribution. Wholesale sales growth was driven by an increase in units that was partially offset by a decrease in average unit selling price.
Gross profit percentage for the first six months of fiscal 2017 increased to 36.6% of net sales, from 35.1% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2016. Gross profit dollars increased to $604.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to $564.5 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2016. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by improvement in the Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie Group merchandise margins, with both delivering lower merchandise markdowns compared to the prior year. The percentage increase was partially offset by a lower gross profit rate at Free People, which was primarily driven by lower merchandise margins due to higher merchandise markdowns. The dollar increase in gross profit was primarily due to higher net sales and the increase in gross profit percentage.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased during the first six months of fiscal 2017 to 26.4% of net sales, compared to 25.3% of net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2016. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by an increase in direct marketing and technology related expenses to support our direct-to-consumer growth and direct store controllable expenses to support our 4.1% square footage growth. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $28.0 million, or 6.9%, to $435.7 million, in the first half of fiscal 2017, from $407.7 million in the first half of fiscal 2016. The dollar increase versus the prior year was primarily related to increased marketing and technology expenses, which drove higher direct-to-consumer traffic, and the operating expenses of new and non-comparable stores.
Income from operations increased to 10.2% of net sales, or $168.7 million, for the first half of fiscal 2017 compared to 9.8%, or $156.8 million, for the first half of fiscal 2016.
Our effective tax rate for the first half of fiscal 2017 was 36.7% of income before income taxes compared to 35.4% of income before income taxes in the first half of fiscal 2016. The increase in the rate was due to the ratio of foreign taxable losses to global taxable profits for the year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $328.3 million as of July 31, 2016, as compared to $362.9 million as of January 31, 2016 and $339.1 million as of July 31, 2015. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as compared to January 31, 2016 was primarily due to cash used for the repayment of long-term debt. Our working capital was $502.0 million at July 31, 2016 compared to $505.1 million at January 31, 2016 and $486.2 million at July 31, 2015.
22
During the last two years, we have satisfied our cash requirements primarily through our cash flow from operating activities. In fiscal 2016, we utilized borrowings on our long-term debt facility as an additional source of cash that were used for the repurchase of our common shares. In addition to repurchasing common shares, our primary uses of cash have been to open new stores, purchase inventory and expand our home offices and fulfillment facilities. We have also continued to invest in our omni-channel capabilities and technology.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities during the first half of fiscal 2017 increased by $21.9 million to $160.9 million from $139.0 million in the first half of fiscal 2016. For both periods, our major source of cash from operations was merchandise sales and our primary outflow of cash for operations was for the payment of operational costs. The period over period increase was primarily due to higher net income and higher share-based compensation expense in the first half of fiscal 2017 as compared to the first half of fiscal 2016.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities during the first half of fiscal 2017 increased by $69.7 million to $75.9 million from $6.2 million in the first half of fiscal 2016. For both periods, our primary outflow of cash for investing activities was for the payment of property and equipment. Cash paid for property and equipment for the six months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015 was $74.4 million and $69.3 million, respectively, and was used in fiscal 2017 primarily to expand our store base and was used in fiscal 2016 primarily to expand our store base and home offices and to increase our fulfillment capabilities. Additionally, the increase in cash used in investing activities was driven by $15.3 million used to acquire the Vetri Family group of restaurants and a $49.3 million change in net investment of cash in marketable securities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities during the first half of fiscal 2017 was $107.8 million, primarily related to $100.0 million in long-term debt repayments and $10.7 million of repurchases of our common shares under the February 23, 2015 share repurchase program.
Credit Facilities
On July 1, 2015, we entered into a five-year asset-based revolving Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement) with certain lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as joint lead arrangers and co-book managers. The Credit Agreement provides senior secured revolving credit for loans and letters of credit up to $400.0 million (the Credit Facility), subject to a borrowing base that is comprised of our eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The Credit Facility includes a swing-line sub-facility, a multicurrency sub-facility and the option to expand the facility by up to $150.0 million. The funds available under the Credit Facility may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The Credit Facility provides for interest on borrowings, at our option, at either (i) adjusted LIBOR, CDOR or EURIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.625%, or (ii) an adjusted ABR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.625%, each such rate based on the level of availability under the Credit Facility and our adjusted leverage ratio. Interest is payable either monthly or quarterly depending on the type of borrowing. A commitment fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Credit Facility based on our adjusted leverage ratio.
All obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by us and our domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest in inventory, accounts receivable, and certain other assets of the borrowers and guarantors. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, negative and affirmative covenants and provisions relating to events of default.
23
As of July 31, 2016, we were in compliance with all terms of the Credit Agreement, borrowings on the Credit Facility totaled $50.0 million and stand-by letters of credit outstanding were $13.5 million.
Additionally, we have borrowing agreements with two separate financial institutions under which we may borrow an aggregate of $130.0 million for the purposes of trade letter of credit issuances. The availability of any future borrowings under the trade letter of credit facilities is subject to acceptance by the respective financial institutions. As of July 31, 2016, we had $67.6 million in outstanding trade letters of credit, and $62.4 million available for future trade letters of credit under these facilities.
Capital and Operating Expenditures
During fiscal 2017, we plan to construct and open approximately 31 new stores, including our restaurant locations, expand certain existing stores, complete the construction of our new east coast fulfillment center, upgrade our systems, invest in omni-channel marketing and purchase inventory for our Retail and Wholesale segments at levels appropriate to maintain our planned sales growth. We believe that our marketing, social media, merchandise expansion, website and mobile initiatives are a significant contributor to our Retail segment sales growth. During fiscal 2017, we plan to continue our investment in these initiatives for all brands. We anticipate our capital expenditures during fiscal 2017 to be approximately $170 million, all of which are expected to be financed by cash flow from operating activities. We believe that our new store investments have the potential to generate positive cash flow within a year. We may also enter into one or more acquisitions or transactions related to the expansion of our brand offerings. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, available credit facilities and future cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund these initiatives.
Share Repurchases
See Note 8 Shareholders Equity of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for certain financial information regarding the Companys share repurchases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of and for the six months ended July 31, 2016, except for operating leases entered into in the normal course of business, we were not party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Other Matters
See Note 2 Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
We are exposed to the following types of market risksfluctuations in the purchase price of merchandise, as well as other goods and services, the value of foreign currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar, and changes in interest rates. Due to our inventory turnover rate and our historical ability to pass through the impact of any generalized changes in our cost of goods to our customers through pricing adjustments, commodity and other product risks are not expected to be material. We purchase the majority of our merchandise in U.S. dollars, including a majority of the goods for our stores located in Canada and a portion of the goods for our stores located in Europe.
24
Our exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currencies is due to our financial statements being presented in U.S. dollars and our international subsidiaries transacting in currencies other than U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in exchange rates in effect during or at the end of the reporting period may affect the value of the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. As we expand our international operations, the potential impact of currency fluctuations increases.
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and our Credit Facility. As of July 31, 2016, our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities consisted primarily of cash on hand and in banks, money market accounts, municipal and pre-refunded municipal bonds rated BBB or better, corporate bonds rated BBB or better, certificates of deposit, and mutual funds. Due to the short average maturity and conservative nature of our investment portfolio, we believe a 100 basis point change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As the interest rates on a material portion of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are variable, a change in interest rates earned on the cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities would impact interest income along with cash flows, but would not impact the fair market value of the related underlying instruments.
We are exposed to market risks relating to changes in interest rates on outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility because these borrowings bear interest at variable rates. A 100 basis point change in our applicable interest rate would not have a material impact to interest expense for the six months ended July 31, 2016.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended July 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
25
