NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
As used in these financial statements, the term “Company” or “G-III” refers to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. The Company designs, sources and markets an extensive range of apparel, including outerwear, dresses, sportswear, swimwear, women’s suits and women’s performance wear, as well as women’s handbags, footwear, small leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage. The Company also operates retail stores and licenses its proprietary brands under several product categories.
The Company consolidates the accounts of its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Fabco Holding B.V. (“Fabco”) is a Dutch joint venture limited liability company that is
KLH, Vilebrequin International SA (“Vilebrequin”), a Swiss corporation that is wholly-owned by the Company, Fabco and Sonia Rykiel report results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by the Company. Accordingly, the results of KLH, Vilebrequin, Fabco and Sonia Rykiel are included in the financial statements for the quarter ended or ending closest to the Company’s fiscal quarter end. For example, with respect to the Company’s results for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2023, the results of KLH, Vilebrequin, Fabco and Sonia Rykiel are included for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. For the year ended January 31, 2023, the results of KLH, which includes KLNA, are included for the period from May 31, 2022 through December 31, 2022. The results of the Company’s previous
The results for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year, given the seasonal nature of the Company’s business. The accompanying financial statements included herein are unaudited. All adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period presented have been reflected.
The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar (reporting currency), are translated from the foreign currency into U.S. dollars at period-end rates, while income and expenses are translated at the weighted-average exchange rates for the period. The related translation adjustments are reflected as a foreign currency translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders’ equity.

NOTE 2 – ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
The Company’s financial instruments consist of trade receivables arising from revenue transactions in the ordinary course of business. The Company considers its trade receivables to consist of
The Company’s accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts as of October 31, 2023, October 31, 2022 and January 31, 2023 were:

Accounts receivable, net | $ | | $ | | $ | |
The allowance for doubtful accounts for wholesale trade receivables is estimated based on several factors. In circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations (such as in the case of bankruptcy filings (including potential bankruptcy filings), extensive delay in payment or substantial downgrading by credit rating agencies), a specific reserve for bad debt is recorded against amounts due from that customer to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. For all other wholesale customers, an allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable at the end of the reporting period for financial statements, assessments of collectability based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions. The Company considers both current and forecasted future economic conditions in determining the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts.
The allowance for doubtful accounts for retail trade receivables is estimated at the credit card chargeback rate applied to the previous 90 days of credit card sales. In addition, the Company considers both current and forecasted future economic conditions in determining the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTE 3 – INVENTORIES
Wholesale inventories, which comprise a significant portion of the Company’s inventory, are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Retail and Vilebrequin inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the weighted average method) or net realizable value. Substantially all of the Company’s inventories consist of finished goods.
The inventory return asset, which consists of the amount of goods that are anticipated to be returned by customers, was $
Inventory held on consignment by the Company’s customers totaled $
NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy for a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in its valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-based (observable) or internally-derived (unobservable). A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:
● | Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
● | Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable. |
● | Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on unobservable prices or valuation techniques that are significant to the fair value measurement. |
