J.CREW GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2019 and November 3, 2018

(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise indicated)

 

1. Basis of Presentation  

J.Crew Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Group”) were acquired (the “Acquisition”) on March 7, 2011 through a merger with a subsidiary of Chinos Holdings, Inc. (the “Parent”). The Parent was formed by investment funds affiliated with TPG Capital, L.P. (“TPG”) and Leonard Green & Partners, L.P. (“LGP” and, together with TPG, the “Sponsors”). Subsequent to the Acquisition, Group became an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, which is owned by affiliates of the Sponsors, investors and members of management. Prior to March 7, 2011, the Company operated as a public company with its common stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. All references to “fiscal 2019” represent the 52-week fiscal year that will end on February 1, 2020 and to “fiscal 2018” represent the 52-week fiscal year that ended February 2, 2019.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly in all material respects the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the applicable interim periods. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily comparable to, or indicative of, results of any other interim period or for the fiscal year as a whole.

Management is required to make estimates and assumptions about future events in preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. While management believes that past estimates and assumptions have been materially accurate, current estimates are subject to change if different assumptions as to the outcome of future events are made. Management evaluates estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and predicates those estimates and judgments on historical experience and on reasonable factors. Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Contract Liabilities

The Company recognizes a contract liability when it has received consideration from a customer and has a future performance obligation to transfer merchandise to the customer. The Company’s contract liabilities include (i) unredeemed gift cards and (ii) unredeemed loyalty program rewards.  

With respect to unredeemed gift cards, the Company is obligated to transfer merchandise in the future when a holder uses a gift card to make a purchase. The contract liability for gift cards is increased when customers purchase cards, and decreased when (i) a customer redeems the card or (ii) the Company estimates the gift card will go unredeemed (referred to as “breakage”). All of the Company’s gift cards do not have an expiration date, and are classified as a current liability.  

With respect to unredeemed loyalty program rewards, the Company is obligated to transfer merchandise to the customer upon accumulating points to certain thresholds. The contract liability for loyalty program rewards is increased as certain customers make qualifying purchases, and decreased when (i) a reward is redeemed for merchandise or (ii) the Company estimates that points will expire and go unredeemed.

Rollforwards of the liabilities for gift cards and loyalty program awards are as follows:
