FOSSIL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENT POLICIES
Basis of Presentation. On May 22, 2013, the company changed its corporate name from Fossil, Inc. to Fossil Group, Inc. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fossil Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries (the Company). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Companys financial position as of June 29, 2013, and the results of operations for the thirteen week periods ended June 29, 2013 (Second Quarter) and June 30, 2012 (Prior Year Quarter), respectively, and the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2013 (Year To Date Period) and June 30, 2012 (Prior Year YTD Period), respectively. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012 (the 2012 Form 10-K). Operating results for the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full fiscal year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has not made any changes in its significant accounting policies from those disclosed in the 2012 Form 10-K.
Business. The Company is a global design, marketing and distribution company that specializes in consumer fashion accessories. Its principal offerings include an extensive line of mens and womens fashion watches and jewelry, handbags, small leather goods, belts, sunglasses, soft accessories and clothing. In the watch and jewelry product categories, the Company has a diverse portfolio of globally recognized owned and licensed brand names under which its products are marketed. The Companys products are distributed globally through various distribution channels, including wholesale in countries where it has a physical presence, direct to the consumer through its retail stores and commercial websites and through third-party distributors in countries where the Company does not maintain a physical presence. The Companys products are offered at varying price points to meet the needs of its customers, whether they are value-conscious or luxury oriented. Based on its extensive range of accessory products, brands, distribution channels and price points, the Company is able to target style-conscious consumers across a wide age spectrum on a global basis.
Foreign Currency Hedging Instruments. The Companys foreign subsidiaries periodically enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge the future payment of intercompany inventory transactions denominated in U.S. dollars. If the Companys foreign subsidiaries were to settle their contracts designated as cash flow hedges that were denominated in Euros, British Pounds, Mexican Pesos, Australian Dollars, Canadian Dollars and Japanese Yen, the net result would have been a gain of approximately $4.5 million, net of taxes, as of June 29, 2013. The Company applies the hedge accounting rules as required by Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). See Note 8Derivatives and Risk Management for additional disclosures about the Companys use of forward contracts.
Earnings Per Share (EPS). Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS adjusts basic EPS for the effects of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during each period using the treasury stock method.
The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used in the computations of both basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share data):

Restricted Cash. As of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, the Company had short-term restricted cash balances of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and long-term restricted cash balances of $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, primarily pledged as collateral to secure bank guarantees for the purpose of obtaining retail space. Short-term restricted cash is reported in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of current assets. Long-term restricted cash is reported in intangible and other assets-net in the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of long-term assets.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards. In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11). ASU 2013-11 requires, unless certain conditions exist, an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented as a reduction to a deferred tax asset in the financial statements for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. The guidance in ASU 2013-11 will become effective for the Company prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is also permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have on its condensed consolidated results of operations and financial position.
In March 2013, FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parents Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (ASU 2013-05). ASU 2013-05 addresses the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice. The guidance in ASU 2013-05 will become effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim periods within those years. The Company will apply the guidance prospectively to any derecognition events that may occur after the effective date, and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2013-05 to have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11), to address certain comparability issues between financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and those prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2013-01), which clarifies which instruments and transactions are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. ASU 2011-11 will require an entity to provide enhanced disclosures about certain financial instruments and derivatives, as defined in ASU 2013-01, to enable users to understand the effects of offsetting in the financial statements as well as the effects of master netting arrangements on an entitys financial condition. The amendments in ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those years, with respective disclosures required for all comparative periods presented. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 to have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards. In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (ASU 2012-02). The amendments in this update permit an entity to make a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset other than goodwill is impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset other than goodwill is less than its carrying amount, it is required to perform the quantitative impairment test for that asset. This ASU aligns the guidance of impairment testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill with that in ASU 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08). The guidance in ASU 2012-02 was effective for the Company beginning December 30, 2012 and did not have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02). FASB issued ASU 2013-02 to improve the transparency of changes in other comprehensive income (OCI) and items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in financial statements. ASU 2013-12 requires an entity to provide information about amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. In addition, an entity must present either on the face of the income statement or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income. See Note 6Stockholders Equity and Benefit Plans for additional disclosures about the Companys OCI. The guidance in ASU 2013-02 became effective for the Company on December 30, 2012 and did not have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
2. ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURE AND GOODWILL
Skagen Designs, Ltd. Acquisition. On April 2, 2012, the Company acquired Skagen Designs, Ltd. and certain of its international affiliates (Skagen Designs). Skagen Designs was a privately held Nevada-based company that globally marketed and distributed contemporary Danish design accessories including watches, clocks, jewelry and sunglasses. The primary purpose of the acquisition was to add an attractive brand to the Companys portfolio that the Company could grow using its established distribution channels. The purchase price was $231.7 million in cash and 150,000 shares of the Companys common stock valued at $19.9 million based on the mean between the highest and lowest sales price of the Companys common stock on NASDAQ on April 2, 2012. To fund the cash purchase price, the Company utilized approximately $200 million of availability under its revolving line of credit and excess cash available in its international subsidiaries to fund the international portion of the purchase price. In addition, subject to the purchase agreement, the sellers could have received up to 100,000 additional shares of the Companys common stock if the Companys net sales of SKAGEN® branded products exceeded certain thresholds over a defined period of time (the Earnout).
The Company recorded the Earnout as a $9.9 million contingent consideration liability in accrued expenses-other in the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets as of the acquisition date. As of December 29, 2012, the contingent consideration liability was remeasured at zero, which resulted in a decrease in operating expenses of $9.9 million during fiscal year 2012. During fiscal year 2013, the contingent consideration liability remained valued at zero as the Earnout criteria was not met. The results of Skagen Designs operations have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements since April 2, 2012.
Prior to closing the Skagen Designs acquisition, the Company incurred approximately $600,000 of acquisition-related expenses for legal, accounting and valuation services during fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2012. The Company incurred additional acquisition and integration related costs of approximately $8.2 million in fiscal year 2012, subsequent to the closing date. Acquisition and integration costs were reflected in general and administrative expenses on the Companys consolidated statements of comprehensive income. There were no acquisition and integration costs incurred during the Year To Date Period.
The Companys condensed consolidated statement of operations for the Prior Year Quarter included $25.2 million of net sales and $1.0 million of operating income related to the results of operations of Skagen Designs from the date of its acquisition on April 2, 2012.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company finalized the purchase accounting for the acquisition, with no change since fiscal year end December 29, 2012. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were recorded at their acquisition date fair values, while transaction costs associated with the acquisition were expensed as incurred. Because the total purchase price exceeded the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, goodwill was recorded equal to the difference. The element of goodwill that is not separable into identifiable intangible assets represents expected synergies. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of April 2, 2012, the effective date of the acquisition (in thousands):

The goodwill and trade name assets recognized from the acquisition have indefinite useful lives, were tested for impairment at fiscal year end 2012 and will continue to be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if indicators are present. The amortization periods for the acquired customer lists, patents and noncompete agreements range from three years to nine years. Approximately $133.8 million of the goodwill recognized in the acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The following unaudited pro forma information presents the combined results of operations of Fossil Group, Inc. and Skagen Designs as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the prior year periods.

Fossil Spain Acquisition. On August 10, 2012, the Companys joint venture company, Fossil, S.L. (Fossil Spain), entered into a Framework Agreement (the Framework Agreement) with several related and unrelated parties, including General De Relojeria, S.A. (General De Relojeria), the Companys joint venture partner. Pursuant to the Framework Agreement, Fossil Spain was granted the right to acquire the outstanding 50% of its shares owned by General De Relojeria upon the expiration of the joint venture agreement on December 31, 2015. Upon the acquisition of these shares, Fossil Spain will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Effective January 1, 2013, pursuant to the Framework Agreement, the Company assumed control over the board of directors and the day-to-day management of Fossil Spain. As a result of this change, the Company now controls Fossil Spain and began consolidating it in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, instead of treating it as an equity method investment. In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, the Company remeasured its preexisting investment in Fossil Spain to fair value as of January 1, 2013, resulting in a gain of $6.5 million, which was recorded in other (expense) income-net on the Companys condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The results of Fossil Spains operations have been included in the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements since January 1, 2013. The Company recorded approximately $10.6 million of goodwill related to the acquisition.
The purchase price for the shares has a fixed and variable component. The fixed portion is based on 50% of the net book value of Fossil Spain as of December 31, 2012. The fixed portion was measured at 5.2 million Euros (approximately $6.8 million at the purchase date). The Company recorded a contingent consideration liability of 5.9 million Euros (approximately $7.8 million at the purchase date) related to the variable portion of the purchase price as of January 1, 2013. The variable portion will be determined based on Fossil Spains aggregated results of operations less dividends distributed by Fossil Spain to General De Relojeria with a minimum annual variable price of 2.0 million Euros (approximately $2.6 million at the purchase date) and a maximum annual variable price of 3.5 million Euros (approximately $4.6 million at the purchase date) for each of the calendar years 2013, 2014, and 2015. See Note 9 Fair Value measurements for additional information about the contingent consideration liability for Fossil Spain.
Both the fixed and variable portions of the purchase price were recorded in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 29, 2013.
Bentrani Watches, LLC Acquisition. On December 31, 2012, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Bentrani Watches, LLC (Bentrani). Bentrani was a distributor of watch products in 16 Latin American countries and was based in Miami, Florida. Bentrani was the Companys largest third-party distributor and had partnered with the Company for ten years. The purchase price was $26.0 million, comprised of $18.7 million in cash and $7.3 million in forgiveness of a payable to the Company. The Company recorded approximately $8.1 million of goodwill related to the acquisition. The results of Bentranis operations have been included in the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. On June 28, 2013, the Company also obtained control of Bentrani Chile SpA (Bentrani Chile), and the results of Bentrani Chiles operations have been included in the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements since that date. The terms of the Bentrani Chile acquisition were not significant.
Swiss Technology Components GmbH Divestiture. On April 24, 2013, Swiss Technology Holding GmbH (STH), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, sold 80% of STHs share in Swiss Technology Components GmbH (STC). During the Second Quarter, STC was deconsolidated as a result of the Companys termination of control and is now accounted for under the cost method.
Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, which is not subject to amortization, were as follows (in thousands):

4. WARRANTY RESERVE
The Companys warranty liabilities are primarily related to watch products. The Companys FOSSIL® watch products sold in the U.S. are covered by a limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship for a period of 11 years from the date of purchase. RELIC® watch products sold in the U.S. are covered by a comparable 12 year warranty, while certain other watches sold by the Company are covered by a comparable two year limited warranty. SKAGEN branded watches are covered by a lifetime warranty against defects due to faulty material or workmanship, subject to normal conditions of use. The Companys warranty liability is recorded using historical warranty repair expense and is recorded in accrued expenses-other in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As changes in warranty costs are experienced, the warranty accrual is adjusted as necessary. Warranty liability activity consisted of the following (in thousands):

The higher effective tax rate in the Second Quarter and the Year To Date Period was primarily due to the quarter impact of adjusting the estimated full year rate to reflect a shift in geographical earnings mix.
As of June 29, 2013, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, was $9.6 million, of which $6.1 million would favorably impact the effective tax rate in future periods, if recognized. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service completed its examination of the Companys 2007-2009 federal income tax returns, and the Company has settled all outstanding federal income tax liabilities for those years. The Company is subject to examinations in various state and foreign jurisdictions for its 2005-2012 tax years, none of which the Company believes are individually significant. Audit outcomes and timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.
The Company has classified uncertain tax positions as long-term income taxes payable, unless such amounts are expected to be paid within twelve months of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date. As of June 29, 2013, the Company had recorded $0.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, for positions that could be settled within the next twelve months. Consistent with its past practice, the Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax overpayments and income tax underpayments in income tax expense and income taxes receivable/payable, respectively. The total amount of accrued income tax-related interest and penalties included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 29, 2013 was $0.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the Second Quarter, the Company accrued income tax-related interest expense of $0.1 million.
6. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY AND BENEFIT PLANS
Common Stock Repurchase Programs. Purchases of the Companys common stock are made from time to time pursuant to its repurchase programs, subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through the open market. Repurchased shares of common stock are recorded at cost and become authorized but unissued shares which may be issued in the future for general corporate or other purposes. The Company may terminate or limit its stock repurchase program at any time. In the event the repurchased shares are cancelled, the Company accounts for retirements by allocating the repurchase price to common stock, additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. The repurchase price allocation is based upon the equity contribution associated with historical issuances. The repurchase programs are conducted pursuant to Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act.
During the Year To Date Period, the Company effectively retired 2.2 million shares of common stock repurchased under its repurchase programs. The effective retirement of repurchased common stock decreased common stock by $22,300, additional paid-in capital by $4.5 million, retained earnings by $221.2 million and treasury stock by $225.8 million. At December 29, 2012 and June 29, 2013, all treasury stock had been effectively retired.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (ASC 718), using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options and stock appreciation rights at the date of grant. Grants under the Companys stock-based compensation plans generally include: (i) stock options and restricted stock for its international employees, (ii) restricted stock units for its non-employee directors and (iii) stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units for its U.S.-based employees. There have been no significant changes to the Companys stock-based compensation plans since the 2012 Form 10-K.

8. DERIVATIVES AND RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations, which it attempts to manage by using derivative instruments. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are the fluctuations in global currencies that will ultimately be used by non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries to settle future payments of intercompany inventory transactions denominated in U.S. dollars. Specifically, the Company projects future intercompany purchases by its non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries generally over a period of up to 18 months. The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts (forward contracts) generally for up to 65% of the forecasted purchases to manage fluctuations in global currencies that will ultimately be used to settle such U.S. dollar denominated inventory purchases. Forward contracts represent agreements to exchange the currency of one country for the currency of another country at an agreed-upon settlement date. The majority of the Companys forward contracts are designated as single cash flow hedges. Fluctuations in exchange rates will either increase or decrease the Companys U.S. dollar equivalent cash flows from these intercompany inventory transactions, which will affect the Companys U.S. dollar earnings. Gains or losses on the forward contracts are expected to offset these fluctuations to the extent the cash flows are hedged by the forward contracts. The Company also periodically enters into forward contracts to manage exchange rate risks associated with certain non-inventory intercompany transactions and to which the Company does not elect hedge treatment. All of the Companys outstanding forward contracts were designated as hedging instruments as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012.
The forward contracts that the Company purchased to hedge exchange rate risk associated with intercompany inventory transactions meet the criteria for hedge eligibility, which requires that they represent foreign-currency-denominated forecasted intra-entity transactions in which (i) the operating unit that has the foreign currency exposure is a party to the hedging instrument and (ii) the hedged transaction is denominated in a currency other than the hedging units functional currency.
At the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. The Company assesses hedge effectiveness under the critical terms matched method at inception and at least quarterly throughout the life of the hedging relationship. If the critical terms (i.e., amounts, currencies and settlement dates) of the forward currency exchange contract match the terms of the forecasted transaction, the Company concludes that the hedge is effective.
The accounting for gains and losses that result from changes in the fair values of derivative instruments depends on whether the derivatives have been designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in earnings when they occur. For a derivative instrument that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income, net of taxes and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. Due to the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instruments and the underlying exposures being hedged, the Companys hedges resulted in no ineffectiveness in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, and there were no components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness for the Second Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period or Prior Year YTD Period.
All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are recorded at fair value at each balance sheet date and the change in fair value is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within the equity section of the balance sheet until such forward contracts gains (losses) become realized or the cash flow hedge relationship is terminated. If the cash flow hedge relationship is terminated, the derivatives gains or losses that are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be recognized in earnings when the hedged cash flows occur. However, for cash flow hedges that are terminated because the forecasted transaction is not expected to occur in the original specified time period, the derivatives gains or losses are immediately recognized in earnings. There were no gains or losses reclassified into earnings as a result of the discontinuation of cash flow hedges in the Second Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period or Prior Year YTD Period. Hedge accounting is discontinued if it is determined that the derivative is not highly effective. The Company records all cash flow hedge assets and liabilities on a gross basis as they do not meet the balance sheet netting criteria because the Company does not have master netting agreements established with the derivative counterparties that would allow for net settlement.
As of June 29, 2013, the Company had the following outstanding forward contracts that were entered into to hedge the future payments of intercompany inventory transactions (in millions):

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASC 820), establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:
· Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
· Level 2 Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
· Level 3 Unobservable inputs based on the Companys assumptions.
ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.
The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 29, 2013 (in thousands):

The fair values of the Companys securities available for sale and deferred compensation plan assets are based on quoted prices. The deferred compensation plan assets are recorded in intangible and other assets-net in the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the Companys forward contracts are based on published quotations of spot currency rates and forward points, which are converted into implied forward currency rates.
The Company has evaluated its short-term and long-term debt and believes, based on the interest rates, related terms and maturities, that the fair values of such instruments approximate their carrying amounts. As of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these accounts.
The fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to Fossil Spain is determined using Level 3 inputs. See Note 2 Acquisitions, Divestiture and Goodwill for additional disclosure about the acquisition. The contingent consideration is based on Fossil Spains earnings during the three year period from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2015. The contingent consideration for calendar years 2013 and 2014 will be paid each year within thirty days of calculation of the amount. The contingent consideration for calendar year 2015 will be paid upon the execution of the purchase agreement in 2016. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using present value techniques with forecasted future cash flows for Fossil Spain as the significant unobservable input. Future revenue growth based on managements projections for calendar years 2013, 2014, and 2015 ranges from 3% to 10%. Operating expenses are projected to be approximately 28% of revenues for calendar years 2013, 2014, and 2015. A discount rate of 19% was used to calculate the present value of the contingent consideration. An increase in future cash flows may result in a higher estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability. Alternatively, a decrease in future cash flows may result in a lower estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability. Future changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability, if any, will be reflected in earnings. None of the underlying assumptions in regard to the estimates have changed since the first quarter of fiscal year 2013.

Key money is the amount of funds paid to a landlord or tenant to acquire the rights of tenancy under a commercial property lease for a certain property. Key money represents the right to lease with an automatic right of renewal. This right can be subsequently sold by the Company or can be recovered should the landlord refuse to allow the automatic right of renewal to be exercised. Key money is amortized over the initial lease term, which ranges from approximately four to 18 years.
Amortization expense for intangible assets was approximately $1.3 million, $1.3 million, $2.6 million and $1.5 million for the Second Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period, and Prior YTD Period, respectively. Estimated aggregate future amortization expense by fiscal year for intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. The Company is occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any currently pending legal matters, individually or collectively, will have a material effect on the business or financial condition of the Company.
13. DEBT
Short Term Foreign-Based Activity. Due to the deconsolidation of STC during the Second Quarter, the 1.1 million Swiss Franc note entered into by STC on October 31, 2012 is no longer recognized on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 29, 2013. See Note 2-Acquisitions, Divestiture and Goodwill for additional disclosures on the deconsolidation of STC.
Long Term U.S.-Based Activity. On May 17, 2013, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a five year Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with (i) the lenders party thereto, (ii) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (Wells Fargo), as administrative agent, swingline lender and issuing lender, (iii) Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as syndication agents, (iv) HSBC Bank USA, National Association and Fifth Third Bank, as documentation agents, and (v) Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as joint lead arrangers and bookrunners. The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit loans in the amount of $750 million (the Revolver), a swingline subfacility up to $20 million, an up to $10 million subfacility for letters of credit, and a term loan in the amount of $250 million (the Term Loan). The Credit Agreement expires and is due and payable on May 17, 2018. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by all direct and indirect material domestic subsidiaries of the Company and is secured by 65% of the outstanding voting capital stock and 100% of the non-voting capital stock of the following foreign subsidiaries of the Company: Fossil Europe B.V., Swiss Technology Holding GmbH and Fossil (East) Limited. In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, the Company paid upfront fees of approximately $4.8 million, which are being amortized over the life of the Credit Agreement.
Amounts outstanding under the Revolver and Term Loan bear interest at the Companys option of (i) the base rate (defined as the higher of (a) the prime rate publicly announced by Wells Fargo (3.75% at the end of the Second Quarter), (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (c) the London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) (0.2% at the end of the Second Quarter) for an interest period of one month plus 1.0%) plus the base rate applicable margin (which varies based upon the Companys consolidated leverage ratio (the Ratio) from 0.25% if the Ratio is less than 1.00 to 1.00, to 1.00% if the Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00) or (ii) the LIBOR rate (defined as the quotient obtained by dividing (a) LIBOR by (b) 1.00 minus the Eurodollar reserve percentage) plus the LIBOR rate applicable margin (which varies based upon the Ratio from 1.25% if the Ratio is less than 1.00 to 1.00, to 2.00% if the Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00). Amounts outstanding under the swingline loan under the Credit Agreement or upon any drawing under a letter of credit bear interest at the base rate plus the base rate applicable margin. Interest based upon the base rate is payable quarterly in arrears. Interest based upon the LIBOR rate is payable either monthly or quarterly in arrears, depending on the interest period selected by the Company. The Revolver also includes a commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.35% for any amounts not drawn under the Revolver.
The Credit Agreement replaced a credit agreement dated as of December 17, 2010, as amended, by and among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swingline lender and issuing lender, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as sole lead arranger and sole book manager and Bank of America, N.A., as lender, which was scheduled to mature on December 17, 2014 (the Prior Credit Agreement). The Company incurred approximately $0.5 million and $1.2 million of interest expense related to the Prior Credit Agreement during the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively. Additionally, during the Year To Date Period, the Company had total borrowings of $346.5 million and repayments of $411.5 million, inclusive of the final payment of $248.0 million. The Company incurred approximately $0.7 million of interest expense related to the Prior Credit Agreement during the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period. On May 17, 2013, the entire amount outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement was repaid using funds borrowed under the Credit Agreement. No penalties or other early termination fees were incurred in connection with the termination of the Prior Credit Agreement.
Loans under the Credit Agreement may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, in minimum principal amounts of $2.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof with respect to a base rate loan under the Revolver, $5.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof with respect to a LIBOR rate loan under the Revolver and Term Loan, and $100,000 or increments of $100,000 in excess thereof with respect to a swingline loan. Loans under the Credit Agreement must be repaid with the net proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance and condemnation events. The Company may permanently reduce the revolving credit commitment at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, in a minimum aggregate principal amount of not less than $3.0 million or increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof.
Wells Fargo can accelerate the repayment obligation upon the occurrence of an event of default, including the failure to pay principal or interest, a material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty, violation of covenants, cross-default, change in control, bankruptcy events, failure of a loan document provision, certain ERISA events and material judgments.
During the Year To Date Period, the Company had borrowings of $250.0 million under the Term Loan which was used to pay off amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement and pay upfront fees related to the Credit Agreement. During the Year To Date Period, the Company also had borrowings of $80.0 million under the Revolver which was used primarily to fund common stock repurchases. As of June 29, 2013, $250.0 million and $80.0 million were outstanding under the Term Loan and the Revolver, respectively. Amounts available under the Revolver are reduced by any amounts outstanding under standby letters of credit. As of June 29, 2013, the Company had available borrowings of approximately $669.0 million under the Revolver. The Company incurred approximately $0.5 million of interest expense related to the Term Loan during the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period. The Company incurred approximately $15,000 of interest expense related to the Revolver during the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period.
Financial covenants in the Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain (i) a consolidated leverage ratio no greater than 2.50 to 1.00, (ii) a consolidated interest coverage ratio no less than 3.50 to 1.00, and (iii) maximum capital expenditures not in excess of (x) $200.0 million from the closing through the fiscal year ending 2013 and during each of fiscal years 2014 and 2015 and (y) $250.0 million during each fiscal year thereafter, subject to certain adjustments. The Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants, events of default and indemnities that are customary for agreements of this type. The Company was in compliance with all covenants in the Credit Agreement as of June 29, 2013 and during the Second Quarter.
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Interest Rate Swap Agreement. On July 26, 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a term of approximately five years. The interest rate swap agreement hedges approximately $250 million of 1-month LIBOR-based variable rate debt obligations under the Term Loan. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will pay a fixed interest rate of 1.288% on a notional amount of $250 million to the swap counterparty, which will amortize over the remaining life of the Term Loan to generally match the amortization of the underlying loan. The Company will receive interest from the swap counterparty on $250 million at a variable rate based on 1-month LIBOR.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Fossil Group, Inc. and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2013 (the Second Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively) as compared to the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2012 (the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period, respectively). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto.
General
We are a global design, marketing and distribution company that specializes in consumer fashion accessories. Our principal offerings include an extensive line of mens and womens fashion watches and jewelry, handbags, small leather goods, belts, sunglasses, soft accessories and clothing. In the watch and jewelry product categories, we have a diverse portfolio of globally recognized owned and licensed brand names under which our products are marketed. Our products are distributed globally through various distribution channels, including wholesale in countries where we have a physical presence, direct to the consumer through our retail stores and commercial websites and through third-party distributors in countries where we do not maintain a physical presence. Our products are offered at varying price points to meet the needs of our customers, whether they are value-conscious or luxury oriented. Based on our extensive range of accessory products, brands, distribution channels and price points, we are able to target style-conscious consumers across a wide age spectrum on a global basis.
Domestically, we sell our products through a diversified distribution network that includes department stores, specialty retail locations, specialty watch and jewelry stores, Company-owned retail and outlet stores, mass market stores, and through our FOSSIL® catalogs and website. Our wholesale customer base includes, among others, Dillards, JCPenney, Kohls, Macys, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, Target and Wal-Mart. In the United States, our network of Company-owned stores included 130 retail stores located in premier retail sites and 100 outlet stores located in major outlet malls as of June 29, 2013. In addition, we offer an extensive collection of our FOSSIL brand products on our website, www.fossil.com, as well as proprietary and licensed watch and jewelry brands through other managed and affiliate websites.
Internationally, our products are sold to department stores, specialty retail stores and specialty watch and jewelry stores in approximately 130 countries worldwide through 25 Company-owned foreign sales subsidiaries and through a network of over 60 independent distributors. Our products are offered on airlines and cruise ships and in international Company-owned retail stores. Internationally, our network of Company-owned stores included 192 retail stores and 71 outlet stores in select international markets as of June 29, 2013. Our products are also sold through licensed and franchised FOSSIL retail stores, retail concessions operated by us and kiosks in certain international markets, as well as our websites in certain countries.
Our business is subject to economic cycles and retail industry conditions. Purchases of discretionary fashion accessories, such as our watches, handbags, sunglasses and other products, tend to decline during recessionary periods when disposable income is low and consumers are hesitant to use available credit. If economic conditions worsen or if the global or regional economies slip back into a recession, our revenues and earnings for fiscal year 2013 or beyond could be negatively impacted.
Our business is also subject to the risks inherent in global sourcing of supply. Certain key components in our products come from limited sources of supply, which exposes us to potential supply shortages that could disrupt the manufacture and sale of our products. Any interruption or delay in the supply of key components could significantly harm our ability to meet scheduled product deliveries to our customers and cause us to lose sales. Interruptions or delays in supply may be caused by a number of factors that are outside of our and our contractor manufacturers control, such as natural disasters like the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in early fiscal year 2011.
Future sales and earnings growth are also contingent upon our ability to anticipate and respond to changing fashion trends and consumer preferences in a timely manner while continuing to develop innovative products in the respective markets in which we compete. As is typical with new products, market acceptance of new designs and products that we may introduce is subject to uncertainty. In addition, we generally make decisions regarding product designs several months in advance of the time when consumer acceptance can be measured. We believe the net sales growth we have experienced over the last several fiscal quarters is the result of our ability to design innovative watch products incorporating a number of new materials that not only differentiate us from our competition but also continue to provide a solid value proposition to consumers across all of our brands.
The majority of our products are sold at price points ranging from $85 to $600. Although the current economic environment continues to weigh on consumer discretionary spending levels, we believe that the price/value relationship and the differentiation and innovation of our products, in comparison to those of our competitors, will allow us to maintain or grow our market share in those markets in which we compete. Historically, during recessionary periods, the strength of our balance sheet, our strong operating cash flow and the relative size of our business with our wholesale customers, in comparison to that of our competitors, have allowed us to weather recessionary periods for longer periods of time and generally resulted in market share gains to us.
Our international operations are subject to many risks, including foreign currency. Generally, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar against currencies of other countries in which we operate will reduce the translated amounts of sales and operating expenses of our subsidiaries, which results in a reduction of our consolidated operating income. We manage these currency risks by using derivative instruments. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are the future payments by non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries of intercompany inventory transactions denominated in U.S. dollars. We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage fluctuations in global currencies that will ultimately be used to settle such U.S. dollar denominated inventory purchases.
For a more complete discussion of the risks facing our business, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to product returns, bad debt, inventories, long-lived asset impairment, impairment of goodwill and trade names, income taxes, warranty costs, hedge accounting, litigation reserves and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11). ASU 2013-11 requires, unless certain conditions exist, an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented as a reduction to a deferred tax asset in the financial statements for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. The guidance in ASU 2013-11 will become effective for us prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is also permitted. We are still currently assessing the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have on our condensed consolidated results of operations and financial position.
In March 2013, FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parents Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (ASU 2013-05). ASU 2013-05 addresses the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice. The guidance in ASU 2013-05 will become effective for us for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim periods within those years. We will apply the guidance prospectively to any derecognition events that may occur after the effective date, and we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2013-05 to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11), to address certain comparability issues between financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and those prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2013-01), which clarifies which instruments and transactions are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. ASU 2011-11 will require an entity to provide enhanced disclosures about certain financial instruments and derivatives, as defined in ASU 2013-01, to enable users to understand the effects of offsetting in the financial statements as well as the effects of master netting arrangements on an entitys financial condition. The amendments in ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those years, with respective disclosures required for all comparative periods presented. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (ASU 2012-02). The amendments in this update permit an entity to make a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset other than goodwill is impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset other than goodwill is less than its carrying amount, it is required to perform the quantitative impairment test for that asset. This ASU aligns the guidance of impairment testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill with that in ASU 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08). The guidance in ASU 2012-02 was effective for us beginning December 30, 2012 and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02). FASB issued ASU 2013-02 to improve the transparency of changes in other comprehensive income (OCI) and items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in financial statements. ASU 2013-12 requires an entity to provide information about amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. In addition, an entity must present either on the face of the income statement or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income. See Note 6-Stockholders Equity and Benefit Plans for additional disclosures about our OCI. The guidance in ASU 2013-02 became effective for us on December 30, 2012 and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.

The following net sales discussion excludes the impact on sales growth attributable to foreign currency exchange rate changes as noted in the above table.
Consolidated Net Sales. Net sales rose 11.4% for the Second Quarter representing sales growth across each of our wholesale and retail operations in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter. Global watch sales delivered the strongest performance, increasing 15.2%, or $72.5 million. We believe that we continue to gain market share in the watch category as we maximize the potential for our brands with our global distribution infrastructure and design innovation. Our jewelry category also favorably impacted the Second Quarter, increasing 23.9%, or $9.0 million, as our new global assortment resonated well with consumers. These sales gains were partially offset by sales decreases in leathers of 5.1%, or $5.0 million, and eyewear of 39.2%, or $4.0 million, as a result of decreased sell through rates at retail. For the Year To Date Period, net sales increased by 13.5%, or $165.1 million, representing sales growth in each of our wholesale and direct to consumer businesses.
North America Wholesale Net Sales. North America wholesale net sales increased 4.2%, or $10.5 million, during the Second Quarter in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter. The Second Quarter was negatively impacted by a timing shift of approximately $15 million from the Second Quarter into the first quarter of fiscal 2013 due to the early timing of Easter in the current fiscal year as compared to the prior fiscal year. North America sales growth was led by an 8.9%, or $17.4 million, increase in watches and a 19.8%, or $1.8 million, increase in the jewelry category. Our leathers and eyewear businesses experienced sales decreases of 12.2%, or $4.8 million, and 63.1%, or $2.5 million, respectively. North America wholesale sales increased across geographies as our U.S. shipments increased 2.6% or $5.9 million, during the Second Quarter, while our subsidiaries in Canada and Mexico delivered increases of 27.7% and 10.5%, respectively. For the Year To Date Period, North America wholesale net sales increased 8.5%, or $40.4 million, compared to the Prior Year YTD Period. This increase was principally driven by sales gains in watches and jewelry, partially offset by decreases in leathers and eyewear. The Year To Date Period was negatively impacted by approximately $10 million as a result of the misalignment of our fiscal calendar with the National Retail Federation (NRF) calendar, on which many of our customers operate. The NRF calendar included an extra week in January 2013 as compared to our fiscal calendar. The extra week on our fiscal calendar will take place in January 2014, leaving every month in this fiscal year misaligned. Accordingly, our fiscal calendar will not re-align with the NRF calendar until January 2014.
Europe Wholesale Net Sales. Europe wholesale net sales rose 15.0%, or $22.1 million, during the Second Quarter in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter representing growth across multiple geographies within the European region. Sales growth was primarily a result of a 17.0%, or $19.6 million, increase in our watch category and a 22.6%, or $4.2 million, increase in our jewelry business. Sales to third party distributors also favorably contributed to the Second Quarter, increasing 13.1%, or $4.3 million, as a result of increased sell-through rates. The Second Quarter was negatively impacted by decreases in the leathers and eyewear categories of 24.0%, or $2.0 million, and 66.4%, or $1.5 million, respectively. The decrease in leathers was primarily attributable to decreased sell-through rates at retail, while the decrease in eyewear was largely due to door reduction. Europe wholesale net sales increased 14.2%, or $42.6 million, for the Year To Date Period as compared to the Prior Year YTD Period, led by a 19.4%, or $43.7 million, increase in watch sales and a 10.8%, or $4.5 million, increase in our jewelry business. These sales gains were partially offset by decreases in our eyewear and leathers categories of 62.8%, or $4.2 million, and 19.3%, or $4.1 million, respectively.
Asia Pacific Wholesale Net Sales. Asia Pacific wholesale net sales rose 17.7%, or $14.9 million, during the Second Quarter in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter. This increase was principally attributable to watch sales increasing 20.6%, or $15.5 million, partially offset by a 41.7%, or $0.8 million, decrease in jewelry sales. We experienced strong growth across most markets led by China, India and Japan. At the end of the Second Quarter, we operated 294 concession locations in Asia with a net 13 new concessions opened during the Second Quarter. For the Second Quarter, concession sales increased by 27.9% with comp sales growing 4.2% in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter. For the Year To Date Period as compared to the Prior Year YTD Period, Asia Pacific wholesale net sales rose 16.6%, or $26.7 million, principally as a result of the same factors experienced during the Second Quarter. Concession sales increased by 27.0%, with comp sales growing 4.1% in the Year To Date Period in comparison to the Prior Year YTD Period.
Direct to Consumer Net Sales. Direct to consumer net sales for the Second Quarter increased by 16.1%, or $24.9 million, in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter, primarily the result of a 17.4% increase in the average number of Company-owned stores open during the Second Quarter partially offset by comparable store sales decreases of 0.1%. For the Year To Date Period, net sales from our Direct to consumer segment increased 19.2%, or $55.5 million, in comparison to the Prior Year YTD Period, primarily as a result of a 15.9% increase in the average number of Company-owned stores open and comparable store sales increases of 2.0%.

During the Second Quarter, we opened 21 new stores and closed five stores. For fiscal year 2013, we anticipate opening a total of approximately 70-75 net new retail stores globally, with a focus internationally and in outlet stores.
A store is included in comparable store sales in the thirteenth month of operation. Stores that experience a gross square footage increase of 10% or more due to an expansion and/or relocation are removed from the comparable store sales base, but are included in total sales. These stores are returned to the comparable store sales base in the thirteenth month following the expansion and/or relocation.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by 14.7% to $408.9 million in the Second Quarter compared to $356.4 million in the Prior Year Quarter as a result of increased sales and gross profit margin expansion. Gross profit margin increased 190 basis points to 57.9% in the Second Quarter compared to 56.0% in the Prior Year Quarter. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily driven by reduced levels of liquidation sales and improved liquidation strategies that drive more profitable margins, a more favorable sales mix of higher margin watch products, growth in the Direct to consumer distribution channel and direct distribution in Latin America, Spain and Portugal as a result of recent acquisitions. Gross profit margin was unfavorably impacted by an increase in the sales mix of lower margin sales to third party distributors. Foreign currency exchange rate changes negatively impacted gross profit margin by approximately 20 basis points during the Second Quarter. For the Year To Date Period, gross profit margin increased 90 basis points to 56.8% compared to 55.9% in the Prior Year YTD Period. During the Year To Date Period, foreign currency exchange rate changes negatively impacted gross profit margin by approximately 20 basis points in comparison to the Prior Year YTD Period. Excluding the impact of currency, gross profit margin was favorably impacted by factors similar to those experienced during the Second Quarter.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses in the Second Quarter increased by $33.7 million and, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 42.8% in the Second Quarter as compared to 42.2% in the Prior Year Quarter. The translation of foreign-based expenses in the Second Quarter increased operating expenses by approximately $0.4 million as a result of the weaker U.S. dollar. On a constant dollar basis, operating expense increases were primarily attributable to the expansion of our retail store and concession base, investments to support growth in the Asia Pacific region and global initiatives, the impact of newly acquired businesses and costs associated with our enhanced Swiss production capabilities. For the Year To Date Period, operating expenses expressed as a percentage of net sales increased to 42.3% compared to 42.0% in the Prior Year YTD Period and included a $2.3 million favorable impact from the translation of foreign-based expenses into U.S. dollars due to a stronger U.S. dollar. On a constant dollar basis, operating expenses for the Year To Date Period increased by $69.4 million primarily the result of the same factors that impacted the Second Quarter.
The following tables set forth operating expenses on a segment basis and the relative percentage of operating expenses to net sales for each segment for the periods indicated (in millions, except for percentage data):

Operating Income. Operating income increased $18.9 million, or 21.4%, in the Second Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter. As a percentage of net sales, operating income increased to 15.1% in the Second Quarter compared to 13.8% of net sales in the Prior Year Quarter. During the Second Quarter, operating income was negatively impacted by approximately $2.8 million as a result of the translation of foreign-based sales and expenses into U.S. dollars. During the Year To Date Period, operating profit margin increased to 14.5% as compared to 13.9% in the Prior Year YTD Period. Operating income for the Year To Date Period included approximately $2.6 million of net currency losses related to the translation of foreign-based sales and expenses into U.S. dollars.
Other (Expense) Income-Net. Other (expense) income-net decreased unfavorably by $2.4 million in comparison to the Prior Year Quarter. This decrease was primarily driven by net foreign currency losses resulting from mark-to-market hedging and other transactional activities as compared to net gains in the Prior Year Quarter. For the Year To Date Period, other (expense) income-net increased favorably by $4.8 million in comparison to the Prior Year YTD Period. This increase was primarily driven by (i) a $6.5 million non-cash, mark-to-market valuation gain related to our right to acquire in 2015 the remaining 50% of Fossil, S.L. (Fossil Spain), our Spanish joint venture owned by General De Relojeria, S.A. and (ii) decreased net foreign currency gains resulting from mark-to-market hedging and other transactional activities as compared to the Prior Year YTD Period.
Provision For Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the Second Quarter was $33.8 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 32.5%. For the Prior Year Quarter, income tax expense was $27.7 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 31.4%. Income tax expense was $62.7 million for the Year To Date Period, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 30.3%. For the Prior Year YTD Period, income tax expense was $51.2 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 29.7%. The higher effective tax rate in the Second Quarter and the Year To Date Period was primarily due to the quarter impact of adjusting the estimated full year rate to reflect a shift in geographical earnings mix.
Net Income Attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. Second Quarter net income attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. increased by 18.1% to $67.7 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, in comparison to $57.3 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, in the Prior Year Quarter. The Second Quarter results included net foreign currency losses of $0.06 per diluted share, offset by a $0.06 per diluted share benefit as a result of a 5.2% lower outstanding share count due to common stock repurchases under our ongoing stock repurchase program. For the Year To Date Period, net income attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. of $139.9 million, or $2.36 per diluted share, represented a 21.1% increase compared to $115.5 million, or $1.86 per diluted share earned during the Prior Year YTD Period. The Year To Date Period results included a $6.5 million non-cash, non-operating gain, which benefitted earnings by $0.11 per diluted share, related to our right to acquire in 2015 the remaining 50% of Fossil Spain. Additionally, net income attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. for the Year To Date Period included net foreign currency losses of $0.04 per diluted share, and an $0.11 per diluted share benefit as a result of a 4.7% lower outstanding share count due to common stock repurchases under our ongoing stock repurchase program.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, our business operations have not required substantial cash during the first several months of our fiscal year. Generally, starting in the third quarter, our cash needs begin to increase, typically reaching a peak in the September-November time frame as we increase inventory levels in advance of the holiday season. Our quarterly cash requirements are also impacted by the number of new stores we open, other capital expenditures and strategic investments such as acquisitions and stock repurchases. Our cash and cash equivalents balance at the end of the Second Quarter was $313.3 million, including $299.1 million held in banks outside the U.S., in comparison to cash and cash equivalents of $138.8 million at the end of the Prior Year Quarter and $177.2 million at the end of fiscal year 2012.
Net cash provided by operating activities and financing activities of $158.7 million and $38.9 million, respectively, was partially offset by net cash used by investing activities of $60.6 million during the Year To Date Period. Excluding net non-cash activities of $28.5 million, net cash provided by operating activities during the Year To Date Period consisted primarily of net income of $144.4 million, partially offset by uses of cash related to net increases in working capital of $14.2 million. Net cash used in investing activities during the Year To Date Period was primarily driven by $43.0 million related to capital expenditures and $14.9 million used for business acquisitions, net of cash acquired. During the Year To Date Period, net cash provided by financing activities was principally comprised of $264.8 million of net debt borrowings, partially offset by $231.9 million of common stock acquisitions.
Net borrowings on notes payable primarily consisted of draws and repayments made under our revolving credit facility.
Accounts receivable, net of allowances, increased by 13.8% to $257.7 million at the end of the Second Quarter compared to $226.4 million at the end of the Prior Year Quarter, primarily as a result of increased wholesale sales and acquisitions. Excluding acquisitions, days sales outstanding for our wholesale segments for the Second Quarter moderately improved.
Inventory at the end of the Second Quarter was $582.1 million, representing an increase of 11.0% from the Prior Year Quarter inventory balance of $524.4 million. Our inventory growth was driven by new store growth, investments in components to preserve production flow and our acquisitions.
In fiscal year 2010, our Board of Directors approved two common stock repurchase programs pursuant to which up to $30 million and $750 million, respectively, could be used to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. In December 2012, our Board of Directors approved an additional common stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $1.0 billion could be used to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. All of these repurchase programs are to be conducted pursuant to Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The $750 million repurchase program has a termination date of December 2013, and the $30 million repurchase program has no termination date. The $1.0 billion common stock repurchase program has a termination date of December 2016.

We effectively retired 2.2 million shares of the common stock repurchased under our repurchase programs during the Year To Date Period. We account for the retirements by allocating the repurchase price, which is based upon the equity contribution associated with historical issuances, to common stock, additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. The effective retirement of common stock repurchased during the Year To Date Period decreased common stock by $22,300, additional paid-in capital by $4.5 million, retained earnings by $221.2 million and treasury stock by $225.8 million. We effectively retired 7.5 million shares of our common stock during the Prior Year YTD Period that were repurchased under our repurchase programs during our 2012, 2011 and 2010 fiscal years. The effective retirement of common stock repurchased during the Prior Year YTD Period decreased common stock by $75,000, additional paid-in capital by $48.4 million, retained earnings by $520.4 million and treasury stock by $568.9 million. At December 29, 2012 and June 29, 2013, all treasury stock had been effectively retired. As of June 29, 2013, we had $842.8 million of repurchase authorizations remaining under the combined purchase plans.
At the end of the Second Quarter, we had working capital of $924.4 million compared to working capital of $726.5 million at the end of the Prior Year Quarter. Additionally, at the end of the Second Quarter, we had approximately $1.6 million of outstanding short-term borrowings and $339.4 million in long-term debt.
On May 17, 2013, we entered into a five year Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with (i) certain lenders party thereto (ii) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (Wells Fargo), as administrative agent, swingline lender and issuing lender, (iii) Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as syndication agents, (iv) HSBC Bank USA, National Association and Fifth Third Bank, as documentation agents, and (v) Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as joint lead arrangers and bookrunners. The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit loans in the amount of $750 million (the Revolver), a swingline subfacility up to $20 million, and up to $10 million subfacility for letters of credit, and a term loan in the amount of $250 million (the Term Loan). Amounts outstanding under the Revolver and Term Loan bear interest at our option of (i) the base rate (defined as the higher of (a) the prime rate publicly announced by Wells Fargo (3.75% at the end of the Second Quarter), (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (c) the London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) (0.2% at the end of the Second Quarter) for an interest period of one month plus 1.0%) plus the base rate applicable margin (which varies based upon our consolidated leverage ratio (the Ratio) from 0.25% if the Ratio is less than 1.00 to 1.00, to 1.00% if the Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00) or (ii) the LIBOR rate (defined as the quotient obtained by dividing (a) LIBOR by (b) 1.00 minus the Eurodollar reserve percentage) plus the LIBOR rate applicable margin (which varies based upon the Ratio from 1.25% if the Ratio is less than 1.00 to 1.00 to 2.00% if the Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00). Amounts outstanding under the swingline subfacility under the Credit Agreement or upon any drawing under a letter of credit bear interest at the base rate plus the base rate applicable margin. Interest based upon the base rate is payable quarterly in arrears. Interest based upon the LIBOR rate is payable either monthly or quarterly in arrears, depending on the interest period selected by us. The Revolver also contains a commitment fee, determined based upon the Ratio, which varies from 0.20%, if the Ratio is less than 1.00 to 1.00, to 0.35%, if the Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00.
The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by all of our direct and indirect material domestic subsidiaries and secured by 65% of the total outstanding voting capital stock and 100% of the non-voting capital stock of Fossil Europe B.V., Fossil (East) Limited and Swiss Technology Holding GmbH, certain of our foreign subsidiaries, pursuant to a pledge agreement.
Financial covenants governing the Credit Agreement require us to maintain (i) a consolidated total leverage ratio no greater than 2.50 to 1.00, (ii) a consolidated interest coverage ratio no less than 3.50 to 1.00, and (iii) maximum capital expenditures not in excess of (x) $200.0 million from the closing through the fiscal year ending 2013 and during each of fiscal years 2014 and 2015 and (y) $250.0 million during each fiscal year thereafter, subject to certain adjustments.
The Credit Agreement replaced a credit agreement dated as of December 17, 2010, as amended, by and among us and certain of our subsidiaries, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swingline lender and issuing lender, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as sole lead arranger and sole book manager and Bank of America, N.A., as lender, which was scheduled to mature on December 17, 2014 (the Prior Credit Agreement). During the Year To Date Period, we borrowed $346.5 million under the Prior Credit Agreement at an average rate of 1.47%. These borrowings were mainly used to fund common stock repurchases. The entire outstanding balance of $248.0 million was repaid on May 17, 2013 using funds borrowed under the Credit Agreement. No penalties or other early termination fees were incurred in connection with the termination of the Prior Credit Agreement.
We had $1.1 million of outstanding standby letters of credit at June 29, 2013 that reduced amounts available under the Revolver. During the Year To Date Period, we borrowed $250.0 million under the Term Loan at an average rate of 1.7%, and we borrowed $80.0 million under the Revolver at an average rate of 1.7%. As of June 29, 2013, the amounts borrowed were still outstanding, and we had $669.0 million available for borrowing under the Revolver. The borrowings made under the Term Loan were used to repay the outstanding balance under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay upfront fees related to the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolver were mainly used to fund common stock repurchases.
At the end of the Second Quarter, excluding long-term capital lease obligations of $5.9 million, we had outstanding short-term and long-term borrowings of $0.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively, related to our wholly-owned subsidiary, Fossil Group Europe, Gmbh, in the form of a term note. This note is secured by our building in Basel, Switzerland. This note has a variable interest rate (2.0% at the end of the Second Quarter) and interest payments due quarterly. This note requires minimum principal payments of 100,000 Swiss Francs (approximately $106,000 at the end of the Second Quarter) each year, has no stated maturity and has no penalties for early termination.
During fiscal 2012, we assumed a 500,000 Swiss Franc short-term note payable (the STP Note) with Eastime Limited, as lender. The STP Note has a fixed interest rate of 2% with interest due annually. The note originally expired on March 31, 2013 but was extended until June 30, 2013. The note was repaid upon its expiration on June 30, 2013. At June 29, 2013, Swiss Franc-based borrowings, in U.S. dollars, under the STP Note were approximately $0.5 million.
Due to the deconsolidation of Swiss Technology Components AG (STC) during the Second Quarter, the 1.1 million Swiss Franc note entered into by STC on October 31, 2012 is no longer recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 29, 2013. See Note 2-Acquisitions, Divestiture and Goodwill for additional disclosures on the deconsolidation of STC.
At June 29, 2013, we were in compliance with all material debt covenants related to all of our credit agreements. For the remainder of fiscal year 2013, we expect total capital expenditures to be in a range of $67 million to $77 million. These capital expenditures will be primarily related to global retail store expansion and renovation and investment in technological infrastructure. We believe that cash flows from operations combined with existing cash on hand and amounts available under the Revolver will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, common stock repurchases and planned capital expenditures for the next twelve months.
Contractual Obligations
As of June 29, 2013, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012, other than those described in Note 13Debt in our notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements at June 29, 2013.
Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained and incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our expected financial position, results of operations, business and financing plans found in this Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The words may, believes, expects, plans, intends, estimates, anticipates and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The actual results of the future events described in such forward-looking statements could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are: the effect of worldwide economic conditions; significant changes in consumer spending patterns or preferences; interruptions or delays in the supply of key components; acts of war or acts of terrorism; changes in foreign currency valuations in relation to the U.S. dollar; lower levels of consumer spending resulting from a general economic downturn or generally reduced shopping activity caused by public safety or consumer confidence concerns; the performance of our products within the prevailing retail environment; customer acceptance of both new designs and newly-introduced product lines; financial difficulties encountered by customers; the effects of vigorous competition in the markets in which we operate; the integration of the organizations and operations of any acquired businesses into our existing organization and operations; the termination or non-renewal of material licenses, foreign operations and manufacturing; changes in the costs of materials, labor and advertising; government regulation; our ability to secure and protect trademarks and other intellectual property rights; and the outcome of current and possible future litigation.
In addition to the factors listed above, our actual results may differ materially due to the other risks and uncertainties discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risks and uncertainties set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012. Accordingly, readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should consider these facts in evaluating the information and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained herein. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
As a multinational enterprise, we are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our most significant foreign currency risks relate to the Euro, and to a lesser extent, the British Pound, Japanese Yen, Canadian Dollar, Mexican Peso and Australian Dollar as compared to the U.S. dollar. Due to our vertical nature whereby a significant portion of goods are sourced from our owned facilities, the foreign currency risks relate primarily to the necessary current settlement of intercompany inventory transactions. We employ a variety of operating practices to manage these market risks relative to foreign currency exchange rate changes and, where deemed appropriate, utilize forward contracts. These operating practices include, among others, our ability to convert foreign currency into U.S. dollars at spot rates and to maintain U.S. dollar pricing relative to sales of our products to certain distributors located outside the U.S. The use of foreign exchange forward contracts allows us to offset exposure to rate fluctuations because the gains or losses incurred on the derivative instruments will offset, in whole or in part, losses or gains on the underlying foreign currency exposure. We use derivative instruments only for risk management purposes and do not use them for speculation or for trading. There were no significant changes in how we managed foreign currency transactional exposure in the Second Quarter and management does not anticipate any significant changes in such exposures or in the strategies we employ to manage such exposure in the near future.
At June 29, 2013, the following table reflects the outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts and their expiration dates (in millions).

If we were to settle our Euro, British Pound, Japanese Yen, Australian Dollar, Mexican Peso and Canadian Dollar based contracts at June 29, 2013, the net result would have been a net gain of approximately $4.5 million, net of taxes. At the end of the Second Quarter, a 10% unfavorable change in the U.S. dollar strengthening against foreign currencies to which we have balance sheet transactional exposures, would have decreased net pre-tax income by $6.1 million. The translation of the balance sheets of our foreign-based operations from their local currencies into U.S. dollars is also sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. At the end of the Second Quarter, a 10% unfavorable change in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar strengthening against the foreign currencies to which we have exposure would have reduced consolidated stockholders equity by approximately $69.0 million. In our view, these hypothetical losses resulting from these assumed changes in foreign currency exchange rates are not material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to interest rate volatility with regard to existing and future debt borrowings. Based on our variable-rate debt outstanding as of June 29, 2013, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by approximately $2.8 million. Effective July 26, 2013, subsequent to the balance sheet date, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on our Term Loan. See Note 14-Subsequent Event for additional disclosures about our interest rate swap. We will continue to evaluate our interest rate exposure and the use of interest rate swaps in future periods to mitigate our risk associated with adverse fluctuations in interest rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (Disclosure Controls), as defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Disclosure Controls evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 29, 2013.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the Second Quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
There are no legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which our properties are subject, other than routine litigation incidental to our business, which is not material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
There were no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012.

(1) During the Second Quarter, 774 shares of repurchased common stock were acquired from grantees in connection with income tax withholding obligations arising from vesting of restricted stock grants. These shares were not part of our publicly announced program to repurchase shares of common stock.
(2) On August 10, 2010, we announced a common stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $30 million could be used to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. The $30 million repurchase program has no termination date. On August 30, 2010, we announced a common stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $750 million could be used to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. The $750 million repurchase program was completed during the first quarter of fiscal year 2013. In December 2012, we announced a common stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $1.0 billion could be used to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock. The $1.0 billion repurchase program has a termination date in December 2016. During the Second Quarter, approximately 1,672,000 shares of common stock were repurchased pursuant to the $1.0 billion plan.
