These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with Urban Outfitters, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2018.
The Company’s business experiences seasonal fluctuations in net sales and net income, with a more significant portion typically realized in the second half of each year predominantly due to 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 nine months ended October 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on January 31. All references in these notes to the Company’s fiscal years refer to the fiscal years ended on January 31 in those years. For example, the Company’s fiscal year 2019 will end on January 31, 2019.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standards update that amends the existing guidance on the income tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers with the exception of transfers of inventory. The update requires the recognition of tax expense when an intra-entity asset transfer occurs as opposed to being deferred under the existing guidance. The Company adopted the new guidance on February 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. The net cumulative effect of this change was $4,496 and was recognized as a decrease to retained earnings as of February 1, 2018.
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 the 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(s); (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company adopted this update on February 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach and applied the new guidance to all contracts that were not completed as of the adoption date. Adoption resulted in a change in the timing of recognizing breakage income related to its gift cards and in recognizing estimated sales returns on a gross basis on its balance sheet. The net cumulative effect of this change was $11,060, after tax, and was recognized as an increase to retained earnings as of February 1, 2018. The difference in financial statement line item amounts in the current period under the new accounting guidance as compared to what the balances would be as reported under the previous accounting guidance is immaterial.
Recently Issued
In June 2016, the 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
6
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 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 12 months. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The update will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The update allows for a modified retrospective transition approach applied either as of the earliest period presented in the financial statements or as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company has determined it will adopt this update on February 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the period of adoption. The update includes a number of practical expedients, of which the Company will elect the “package of three” and will not reassess expired or existing leases as of the effective date. The Company will also elect the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components. While the Company expects adoption to result in a significant increase in the assets and liabilities recorded on its balance sheet, the Company is currently assessing the overall impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenue Recognition
Merchandise: Merchandise is sold through retail stores, catalogs and the digital sales channel, as well as to wholesale customers and franchise partners. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer. The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling as fulfillment activities, and not a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company will recognize revenue for its single performance obligation at the point of sale or at the time of shipment, which is when transfer of control to the customer occurs. Revenue does not include taxes assessed by governmental authorities, including value-added and other sales-related taxes, that are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing activities. Revenue is recognized net of estimated customer returns. Retail segment return policies vary by brand, but generally provide for no time limit on returns and the refund to be issued in either the form of original payment or as a gift card. Payment for merchandise is tendered primarily by cash, check, credit card, debit card or gift card. Uncollectible accounts receivable primarily results from unauthorized credit card transactions. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for its Wholesale segment accounts receivable, which management reviews on a regular basis and believes is sufficient to cover potential credit losses and billing adjustments. Payment terms in the Wholesale segment vary by customer with the most common being a net 30-day policy.
Food and Beverage: Revenue from restaurant sales and events is recognized upon completion of the service, when the Company satisfies its single performance obligation. Customer deposits may be received in advance for events which represents a contract liability until the Company satisfies its performance obligation.
Franchise Fees: Revenue from franchise operations primarily relates to merchandise sales to franchisees and royalty fees. Merchandise sales to franchisees are discussed above under Merchandise. Royalty fees are based upon a percentage of franchisee net sales to third party customers and are recognized when such sales occur.
Gift Cards: The Company accounts for a gift card transaction by recording a liability at the time the gift card is issued to the customer in exchange for consideration from the customer. At the time of issuance, the Company has an open performance obligation for the future delivery of promised goods or services. The liability remains outstanding until the card is redeemed by the customer, at which time the Company recognizes revenue. Over time, a portion of the outstanding gift cards will not be redeemed by the customer (“breakage”). Revenue is recognized from breakage over time in proportion to gift card redemptions. Judgment is used in determining the amount of breakage revenue to be recognized and is based on historical gift card redemption patterns. Gift card breakage revenue is included in net sales and is not material. The Company’s gift cards do not expire.
See Note 13, “Segment Reporting,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information including net sales recorded by reportable segment and net sales from contracts with customers by merchandise category.
7
Contract receivables occur when the Company satisfies all of its performance obligations under a contract and recognizes revenue prior to billing or receiving consideration from a customer for which it has an unconditional right to payment. Contract receivables arise from credit card transactions and sales to Wholesale segment customers and franchisees. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2018, the opening and closing balance of contract receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, was $76,962 and $90,954, respectively. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2017, the opening and closing balance of contract receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, was $54,505 and $78,348, respectively. Contract receivables are included in “Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contract liabilities represent unearned revenue and result from the Company receiving consideration in a contract with a customer for which it has not satisfied all of its performance obligations. The Company’s contract liabilities result from customer deposits and the issuance of gift cards. Gift cards are expected to be redeemed within two years of issuance, with the majority of redemptions occurring in the first year. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2018, the opening and closing balance of contract liabilities was $56,637 and $34,253, respectively. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2017, the opening and closing balance of contract liabilities was $59,013 and $45,006, respectively. Contract liabilities are included in “Accrued expenses, accrued compensation and other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the nine month period ended October 31, 2018, the Company recognized $26,562 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Proceeds from the sales and maturities of available-for-sale securities were $211,174 and $209,937 for the nine months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company included in “Other income (expense), net,” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, net realized losses of $3 and $16 for the three and nine
9
months ended October 31, 2018, respectively, and net realized losses of $2 and $11 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2017, respectively. Amortization of discounts and premiums, net, resulted in a reduction of “Other income (expense), net” of $328 and $1,479 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018, respectively, and $538 and $2,066 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2017, respectively. Mutual funds represent assets held in an irrevocable rabbi trust for the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 Company’s own assumptions. |
Management’s 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 Company’s 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 October 31, 2018, January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017.
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 of purchase. As of October 31, 2018, January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, 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.
Non-financial assets
The Company’s non-financial assets, primarily consisting of property and equipment and goodwill, are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable and, in the case of goodwill, an annual assessment is performed.
The fair value of property and equipment was determined using a discounted cash-flow model that utilized Level 3 inputs. The Company’s retail locations are reviewed for impairment at the retail location 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 retail location is located. Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. The Company evaluates goodwill to determine if the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, impairment charges were zero.
6. Debt
On June 29, 2018, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) that amended the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility with certain lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as joint lead arrangers and co-book managers.
11
The Amended Credit Agreement extended the maturity date of the senior secured revolving credit facility to June 2023 (the “Amended Credit Facility”). The Amended Credit Facility provides for loans and letters of credit up to $350,000, subject to a borrowing base that is comprised of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The Amended 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 funds available under the Amended Credit Facility may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The Amended Credit Facility provides for interest on borrowings, at the Company’s option, at either (i) adjusted LIBOR, CDOR or EURIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.375%, or (ii) an adjusted ABR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.375%, each such applicable margin depending on the level of availability under the Amended Credit Facility. Depending on the type of borrowing, interest on the Amended Credit Agreement is payable monthly, quarterly or at the end of the interest period. A commitment fee of 0.20% is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Amended Credit Facility.
All obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. The obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest in inventory, accounts receivable, and certain other assets of the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. The obligations of URBN Canada Retail, Inc. are secured by a first-priority security interest in its inventory, accounts receivable, and certain other assets. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, negative and affirmative covenants and provisions relating to events of default.
As of October 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all terms of the Amended Credit Agreement and borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility totaled $0. Outstanding stand-by letters of credit, which reduce the funds available under the Amended Credit Facility, were $12,737.
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 October 31, 2018, the Company had outstanding trade letters of credit of $56,563, and available trade letters of credit of $73,437 under these facilities.
7. Income Taxes
The new federal tax legislation commonly referred to as the U.S. Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) enacted on December 22, 2017 (the “Enactment Date”) introduced significant changes to U.S. income tax law. Effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, the Tax Act reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% and created new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings and certain intercompany payments.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was 20.6% of income before income taxes compared to 37.4% of income before income taxes in the three months ended October 31, 2017. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 31, 2018 was 21.7% of income before income taxes compared to 37.2% of income before income taxes in the nine months ended October 31, 2017. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018, compared with the same periods in 2017, was primarily affected by the Tax Act, which reduced the Company’s income tax rate to 21%, and by the favorable impact of share-based award activity and certain other discrete items occurring in the fiscal 2019 periods.
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission allows registrants to record provisional estimates for the Tax Act during a measurement period not to exceed one year from the Enactment Date. Due to the timing of the enactment and the complexity involved in applying the provisions of the Tax Act, the Company made reasonable estimates of the effects and recorded provisional amounts in its financial statements as of January 31, 2018 amounting to a net expense of $64,705. The impacts of the Tax Act may differ from the Company’s provisional estimates due to many factors, including, but not limited to, changes to its interpretations of the provisions in the Tax Act; guidance that may be issued; and actions that the Company may take.
12
For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018, the Company recorded an additional measurement-period adjustment to its provisional estimate for the deemed repatriation transition tax obligation, with an immaterial impact to income tax expense. The Company has not made any measurement-period adjustments related to reduction of U.S. federal corporate tax rate or global intangibles low-tax income and amounts remain provisional. The Company is still evaluating the effects of the Tax Act’s provisions on its consolidated financial statements; however, the Company expects to complete its evaluation within the applicable measurement period, pursuant to SAB 118. As such, the Company’s provisional estimates for the Tax Act could change significantly within this period, resulting in a material impact to its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act will be completed during fiscal 2019.
Each year, the Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal and state jurisdictions and non-U.S. jurisdictions. These tax returns are subject to examination and possible challenge by taxing authorities. Positions challenged by the taxing authorities may be settled or appealed by the Company. As a result, income tax uncertainties are recognized in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting for income taxes under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes, when applicable.
8. 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 (“RSU’s”), performance stock units (“PSU’s”) or stock appreciation rights (“SAR’s”). A lattice binomial pricing model was used to estimate the fair values of stock options and SAR’s. The fair value of each of the PSU’s 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 nine months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 was as follows:

For the nine months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, awards to purchase 249,167 common shares ranging in price from $37.02 to $46.42 and 1,016,733 common shares ranging in price from $25.60 to $46.02, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share because the impact would be anti-dilutive.
Excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share as of October 31, 2018 and 2017 were 742,855 and 2,610,295 performance-based equity awards, respectively, because they did not meet the required performance criteria.
12. 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 adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
15
The Company offers lifestyle-oriented general merchandise and consumer products and services through a portfolio of global consumer brands. The Company operates two reportable segments—“Retail” and “Wholesale.” The Company’s Retail segment consists of the “Anthropologie,” “Bhldn,” “Free People,” “Terrain” and “Urban Outfitters” brands and the Food and Beverage division. The Anthropologie, Bhldn and Terrain brands make up the “Anthropologie Group.” As of October 31, 2018, there were 248 Urban Outfitters stores, 228 Anthropologie Group stores, 134 Free People stores, 13 restaurants under the Food and Beverage division and three Urban Outfitters franchisee-owned stores. Each of Urban Outfitters, the Anthropologie Group and Free People, including their Company-owned and franchisee-owned stores and digital channels, and the restaurants operated under the Company’s Food and Beverage division, are considered an operating segment. Net sales from the Retail segment accounted for approximately 90.3% and 90.6% of total consolidated net sales for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018, respectively. Net sales from the Retail segment accounted for approximately 90.6% of total consolidated net sales for each of the three and nine months ended October 31, 2017. The remaining net sales are derived from the Company’s Wholesale segment which consists of the Free People, Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters brands that sell through approximately 2,100 department and specialty stores worldwide, digital businesses and the Company’s Retail segment. The Wholesale segment primarily designs, develops and markets young women’s contemporary casual apparel, intimates, FP Movement activewear and shoes under the Free People brand, home goods including gifts, tabletop and textiles under the Anthropologie brand and the BDG apparel collection under the Urban Outfitters brand. The Anthropologie wholesale division was established in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 and the Urban Outfitters wholesale division was established in the third quarter of fiscal 2019.
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 Company’s 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 Company’s 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, catalogs and customer contact centers. The Company’s 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 digital channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from that store’s inventory, but may also be shipped from any of the Company’s fulfillment centers or from a different store location if an item is not available at the original store. We also allow customers to view in-store inventory from our websites and mobile applications. Digital orders are primarily shipped to the Company’s 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. In addition, customers can pick up digital orders and return certain merchandise purchased through digital channels at retail locations. As the Company’s 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. 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.
16
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 Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018. Both the Retail and Wholesale segments are highly diversified. No one customer constitutes more than 10% of the Company’s total consolidated net sales. A summary of the information about the Company’s operations by segment is as follows:

Certain matters contained in this filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) may contain forward-looking statements and are being made pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words “project,” “believe,” “plan,” “will,” “anticipate,” “expect” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Any one, or all, of the following factors could cause actual financial results to differ materially from those financial results mentioned in the forward-looking statements: the difficulty in predicting and responding to shifts in fashion trends, changes in the level of competitive pricing and promotional activity and other industry factors, overall economic and market conditions and worldwide political events and the resultant impact on consumer spending patterns, the effects of the implementation of the United Kingdom's referendum to withdraw membership from the European Union (commonly referred to as “Brexit”), including currency fluctuations, economic conditions, and legal or regulatory changes, any effects of war, terrorism and civil unrest, natural disasters or severe or unseasonable weather conditions, increases in labor costs, increases in raw material costs, availability of suitable retail space for expansion, timing of store openings, risks associated with international expansion, seasonal fluctuations in gross sales, the departure of one or more key senior executives, import risks, changes to U.S. and foreign trade policies, including the enactment of tariffs, border adjustment taxes or increases in duties or quotas, the closing or disruption of, or any damage to, any of our distribution centers, our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, risks associated with digital sales, our ability to maintain and expand our digital sales channels, response to new store concepts, our ability to integrate acquisitions, failure of our manufacturers and third-party vendors to comply with our social compliance program, changes in our effective income tax rate, the impact of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, changes in accounting standards and subjective assumptions, regulatory changes and legal matters and other risks identified in our filings with the SEC, including those set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, filed on April 2, 2018. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that actual results may differ materially from any projected results expressed or implied therein.
Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Urban Outfitters, Inc., together with its subsidiaries.
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 and Urban Outfitters brands and our Food and Beverage division. Our Retail segment consumer products and services are sold directly to our customers through our stores, websites, mobile applications, catalogs and customer contact centers and franchised or third-party operated stores and digital businesses. The Wholesale segment consists of our Free People, Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters brands that sell through department and specialty stores worldwide, digital businesses and our Retail segment. The Wholesale segment primarily designs, develops and markets young women’s contemporary casual apparel, intimates, FP Movement activewear and shoes under the Free People brand, home goods including gifts, tabletop and textiles under the Anthropologie brand and the BDG apparel collection under the Urban Outfitters brand.
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 2019 will end on January 31, 2019.
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, catalogs and customer contact centers. 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 digital channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from that store’s 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. We also allow customers to view in-store inventory from our websites and mobile applications. Digital orders are primarily
19
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. Digital orders may also be picked up at a store location, and customers may also return certain merchandise purchased through digital channels at store locations. As our 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. 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 digital channel net sales. A store is considered to be comparable if it has been open at least 12 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 digital channel is considered to be comparable if it has been operational for at least 12 full months. Sales from stores and digital channels that do not fall within the definition of comparable store or channel are considered to be non-comparable. Franchise net sales and the effects of foreign currency translation are also considered non-comparable.
We monitor customer traffic, average unit selling price, transactions and average units per transaction at our stores, and customer sessions, average order value and conversion rates on our websites and mobile applications. We believe that changes in any of these metrics may be caused by a response to our brands’ fashion offerings, our marketing and digital marketing campaigns, circulation of our catalogs and an overall growth in brand recognition.
Urban Outfitters targets young adults aged 18 to 28 through a unique merchandise mix, compelling store environment, websites and mobile applications through a product offering that includes women’s and men’s fashion apparel, activewear, intimates, footwear, accessories, home goods, electronics and beauty. A large portion of our merchandise is exclusive to Urban Outfitters, consisting of an assortment of product designed internally and designed in collaboration with third-party brands. Urban Outfitters stores are in street locations in large metropolitan areas and select university communities, specialty centers and enclosed malls that accommodate our customers’ propensity not only to shop, but also to congregate with their peers.

Urban Outfitters’ North American and European Retail segment net sales accounted for approximately 30.2% and 8.1% of consolidated net sales, respectively, for the nine months ended October 31, 2018, compared to 30.7% and 7.4%, respectively, for the comparable period in fiscal 2018.

The Bhldn brand offers a curated collection of heirloom quality wedding gowns, bridesmaid frocks, party dresses, assorted jewelry, headpieces, footwear, lingerie and decorations. The Terrain brand is designed to appeal to women and men interested in a creative and sophisticated outdoor living and gardening experience. In addition to individual brand stores, we operate expanded format stores that include multiple Anthropologie Group brands that allow us to present an expanded assortment of products in certain categories. Merchandise includes lifestyle home, garden and outdoor living products, antiques, live plants, flowers, wellness products and accessories. Anthropologie Group stores are located in specialty centers, upscale street locations and enclosed malls.

Free People focuses its product offering on private label merchandise targeted to young contemporary women aged 25 to 30 and provides a unique merchandise mix of casual women’s apparel, intimates, FP Movement activewear, shoes, accessories, home products, gifts and beauty and wellness. Free People stores are located in enclosed malls, upscale street locations and specialty centers.

We plan to open additional Free People stores in Europe that will allow us to expand the presence of the brand internationally. Free People’s Retail segment net sales accounted for approximately 11.7% of consolidated net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2018, compared to approximately 11.2% for the comparable period in fiscal 2018.
The Food and Beverage division focuses on a dining experience that provides excellence in food, beverage and service. Three new restaurants were opened in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The Food and Beverage division net sales accounted for less than 1.0% of consolidated net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2018 and the comparable period in fiscal 2018.

Food and Beverage restaurants and franchisee-owned stores are not included in selling square footage. |
We plan to open approximately 18 new Company-owned stores during fiscal 2019, including five Urban Outfitters stores, four Anthropologie Group stores, six Free People stores and three Food and Beverage restaurants. We plan to close approximately 12 Company-owned stores during fiscal 2019, including five Urban Outfitters stores, four Anthropologie Group stores and three Free People stores, all due to lease expirations. We plan to open four franchisee-owned stores during fiscal 2019, including three Urban Outfitters franchisee-owned stores and one Anthropologie franchisee-owned store. Within the United States and Canada, we are at or close to our desired maximum store count for the Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie and Free People brands. We plan for growth for all three brands to come from expansion internationally, which may include opening stores in new and existing markets, entering into additional franchise or joint venture agreements or enhancing our presence in third-party digital marketplaces including Tmall in China and through our franchise partners. The Company currently operates franchise locations in Israel and in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 signed a second franchise agreement to open stores in Middle Eastern countries in fiscal 2020.
Wholesale Segment
Our Wholesale segment consists of the Free People, Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters brands that sell through approximately 2,100 department and specialty stores worldwide, third-party digital businesses and our Retail segment. The Wholesale segment primarily designs, develops and markets young women’s contemporary casual apparel, intimates, FP Movement activewear and shoes under the Free People brand, home goods including gifts, tabletop and textiles under the Anthropologie brand and the BDG apparel collection under the Urban Outfitters brand. The Anthropologie wholesale division was established in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 and the Urban Outfitters wholesale division was established in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Our Wholesale segment net sales accounted for approximately 9.4% of consolidated net sales for each of the nine months ended October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017.
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 the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. 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, 2018, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 2, 2018. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and require management’s 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 adopted new accounting standards related to revenue recognition and intra-entity asset transfers on February 1, 2018, which changed certain accounting policies (see Note 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements,” of
22
the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Other than the adoption of the new accounting standards, there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended October 31, 2018.

Three Months Ended October 31, 2018 Compared To Three Months Ended October 31, 2017
Net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 were $973.5 million, compared to $892.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The $80.7 million increase was attributable to a $70.3 million, or 8.7%, increase in Retail segment net sales and a $10.4 million, or 12.4%, increase in Wholesale segment net sales. Retail segment net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 accounted for 90.3% of total net sales compared to 90.6% of total net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2018.
The increase in our Retail segment net sales during the third quarter of fiscal 2019 was due to an increase of $59.9 million, or 7.7%, in Retail segment comparable net sales, which includes our digital channel, and an increase of $10.4 million in non-comparable net sales, including the impact of foreign currency translation and new store net sales. Retail segment comparable net sales increased 12.3% at Free People, 7.7% at the Anthropologie Group and 6.5% at Urban Outfitters. The increase in Retail segment comparable net sales was driven by continued growth in the digital channel and positive comparable store net sales. The digital channel net sales increase was driven by increases in average order value, sessions and conversion rate. Positive comparable store net sales resulted from increases in average unit selling price and units per transaction, partially offset by a decrease in transactions. Store traffic for the quarter decreased. The increase in net sales attributable to non-comparable sales during the three months ended October 31, 2018 was primarily due to the net impact of opening 20 new stores and restaurants and closing nine stores and restaurants since the prior comparable period. Thus far during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, comparable Retail segment net sales are mid single-digit positive.
The increase in Wholesale segment net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2018, was due to an increase of 8.4% for the Free People brand, primarily resulting from an increase in domestic sales to department stores, specialty stores and digital businesses. These increases resulted from growth in several categories, including women’s apparel, intimates and FP Movement activewear, as well as from the recently-launched Anthropologie home goods wholesale business and the launch of the Urban Outfitters BDG apparel collection wholesale business.
Gross profit percentage for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 increased to 34.7% of net sales, from 33.4% of net sales in the comparable quarter in fiscal 2018. Gross profit increased to $337.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal
23
2019 from $297.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by lower markdowns at all three brands and leverage in store occupancy cost due to increases in Retail segment comparable net sales. Total inventory at October 31, 2018 increased by $1.7 million, or 0.4%, to $451.7 million from $450.0 million at October 31, 2017. Comparable Retail segment inventory was flat.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased during the third quarter of fiscal 2019 to 24.8% of net sales, compared to 25.2% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2018. This percentage decrease was primarily driven by the net sales growth. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $16.5 million, or 7.3%, to $241.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The dollar growth in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased direct selling and marketing expenses to support and drive the increase in Retail segment net sales and higher bonus and share-based compensation expense.
Income from operations increased to 9.9% of net sales, or $96.4 million, for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to 8.2% of net sales, or $72.9 million, for the third quarter of fiscal 2018.
Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 was 20.6% of income before income taxes compared to 37.4% of income before income taxes in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the lower federal statutory rate resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the favorable impact of share-based award activity and certain other discrete items.
Nine Months Ended October 31, 2018 Compared To Nine Months Ended October 31, 2017
Net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2018 were $2.82 billion, compared to $2.53 billion in the comparable period of fiscal 2018. The $294.8 million increase was attributable to a $266.9 million, or 11.7%, increase in Retail segment net sales and a $27.9 million, or 11.7%, increase in Wholesale segment net sales. Retail segment net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2018 accounted for 90.6% of total net sales compared to 90.6% of total net sales in the nine months ended October 31, 2017.
The increase in our Retail segment net sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 was due to an increase of $225.1 million, or 10.2%, in Retail segment comparable net sales, which includes our digital channel, and an increase of $41.8 million in non-comparable net sales, including the impact of foreign currency translation and new store net sales. Retail segment comparable net sales increased 14.7% at Free People, 9.7% at Urban Outfitters and 9.6% at the Anthropologie Group. The increase in Retail segment comparable net sales was driven by continued growth in the digital channel and positive comparable store net sales. The digital channel net sales increase was driven by increases in average order value, sessions and conversion rate. Positive comparable store net sales resulted from increased average unit selling price and units per transaction, partially offset by a decrease in transactions. Store traffic for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 was flat. The increase in net sales attributable to non-comparable sales during the nine months ended October 31, 2018 was primarily due to the net impact of opening 32 new stores and restaurants and closing 15 stores and restaurants since the prior comparable period.
The increase in Wholesale segment net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2019, as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2018, was due to an increase of 9.0% for the Free People brand, primarily resulting from an increase in domestic sales to department stores, specialty stores and digital businesses. These increases resulted from growth in several categories, including women’s apparel, intimates and FP Movement activewear, as well as from the recently-launched Anthropologie home goods wholesale business and the launch of the Urban Outfitters BDG apparel collection wholesale business.
Gross profit percentage for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 increased to 34.5% of net sales, from 33.0% of net sales in the comparable period in fiscal 2018. Gross profit increased to $974.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 from $834.9 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2018. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by lower markdowns at all three brands and leverage in store occupancy cost due to increases in Retail segment comparable net sales.
24
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 to 25.0% of net sales, compared to 26.3% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2018. This percentage decrease was primarily driven by the net sales growth, continued savings associated with the fiscal 2018 store reorganization project and the nonrecurring store reorganization expenses incurred in the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $41.3 million, or 6.2%, to $707.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2019, compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2018. The dollar growth in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased direct selling and marketing expenses to support and drive the increase in Retail segment net sales and higher bonus and share-based compensation expense.
Income from operations increased to 9.5% of net sales, or $267.1 million, for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 compared to 6.7% of net sales, or $169.1 million, for the first nine months of fiscal 2018.
Our effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 was 21.7% of income before income taxes compared to 37.2% of income before income taxes in the first nine months of fiscal 2018. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the lower federal statutory rate resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the favorable impact of share-based award activity and certain other discrete items.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $602.4 million as of October 31, 2018, as compared to $506.0 million as of January 31, 2018 and $369.2 million as of October 31, 2017. During the first nine months of fiscal 2019, we generated $270.2 million in cash from operations and invested $90.0 million in property and equipment. Our working capital was $793.8 million at October 31, 2018 compared to $618.5 million at January 31, 2018 and $544.2 million at October 31, 2017.
During the last two years, we have satisfied our cash requirements primarily through our cash flow from operating activities. Our primary uses of cash have been to repurchase our common shares, open new stores, purchase inventory, fund store operations and expand our home offices and fulfillment centers. 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 nine months of fiscal 2019 increased by $100.6 million to $270.2 million from $169.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2018. For both periods, our major source of cash from operations was merchandise sales and our primary outflow of cash from operations was for the payment of operational costs. The period over period increase in cash flows from operations was primarily due to higher net income.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 increased by $130.7 million to $159.0 million from $28.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2018. Cash used in investing activities in both periods primarily related to purchases of marketable securities and property and equipment, partially offset by the sales and maturities of marketable securities. Cash paid for property and equipment in the first nine months of fiscal 2019 and 2018 was $90.0 million and $63.3 million, respectively, which was primarily used to expand our store base.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 decreased by $105.1 million to $54.1 million from $159.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2018. Cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2019 and 2018 primarily related to $57.5 million and $157.0 million, respectively, of repurchases of our common shares under our share repurchase program.
25
See Note 6, “Debt,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the Company’s debt.
Capital and Operating Expenditures
During fiscal 2019, we plan to construct and open approximately 18 new Company-owned retail locations, expand or relocate certain existing retail locations, upgrade our systems, improve our capabilities in the digital channel, invest in omni-channel marketing, expand our fulfillment capabilities and purchase inventory for our Retail and Wholesale segments at levels appropriate to maintain our planned sales growth and repurchase common shares. We believe that our new store openings, merchandise expansion programs, international growth opportunities and our marketing, social media, website and mobile initiatives are significant contributors to our Retail segment sales growth. During fiscal 2019, we plan to continue our investment in these initiatives for all brands. We anticipate our capital expenditures during fiscal 2019 to be approximately $120 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, including additional franchise and joint venture agreements. In the third quarter of fiscal 2019, we signed a second franchise agreement to open stores in Middle Eastern countries in fiscal 2020. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, availability under our current credit facilities and future cash flows provided by operations will be sufficient to fund these initiatives.
Share Repurchases
See Note 9, “Shareholders’ Equity,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the Company’s share repurchases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of and for the nine months ended October 31, 2018, 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, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements,” of the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of recently adopted and issued accounting pronouncements.
There have been no material changes to our quantitative or qualitative disclosures found in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018.
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
26
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 October 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
27
OTHER INFORMATION
We are party to various legal proceedings arising from normal business activities. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
There have been no material changes in our risk factors since January 31, 2018. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2018, for our risk factors.
