NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

As used in these financial statements, the term “Company” refers to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. The results for the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year, given the seasonal nature of the Company’s business. The accompanying financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been reflected.

The Company consolidates the accounts of all its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Investments in entities that the Company does not control but has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments are recorded initially at cost in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Those amounts are adjusted to recognize the Company’s proportional share of the investee’s net income or loss after the date of the investment. The Company’s share of net income or loss of these investments is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 2 – Acquisition of Vilebrequin

On August 7, 2012, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Vilebrequin International SA, a Swiss corporation (“Vilebrequin”) for aggregate consideration consisting of (i) €70.5 million (approximately $87.6 million) in cash and (ii) €15.0 million (approximately $18.6 million) of unsecured promissory notes due December 31, 2017, with interest payable at the rate of 5% per year and (iii) contingent consideration of up to €22.5 million (approximately $27.9 million) based upon achieving certain performance objectives related to the growth of the Vilebrequin business over the three years ending December 31, 2015. The dollar equivalents to the amounts in Euro set forth in the notes to these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are based on the exchange rate at the time of the acquisition.

The total consideration was approximately $111.7 million, including the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the tangible assets, liabilities and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values, and is subject to adjustment when additional information concerning asset and liability valuations is finalized. The fair value of the contingent consideration is estimated as of the acquisition date based on the present value of the expected contingent payments, which are determined using weighted probabilities of possible payments. The preliminary allocation has resulted in goodwill and intangible assets in the aggregate amount of $99.9 million related to the acquisition of Vilebrequin. Such amounts could change upon finalization of the purchase accounting which is expected to be completed by year end.

The following table (in thousands) summarizes the components of the preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Vilebrequin:

Table of Contents

The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired were based on assumptions and estimates made by management. Identifiable intangible assets acquired include trademarks valued at $58.6 million with an indefinite life, franchise agreements valued at $7.4 million with an estimated useful life of 14 years, and customer relationships valued at $2.6 million with an estimated useful life of 8 years. The goodwill represents the future economic benefits expected to arise that could not be individually identified and separately recognized, including use of our existing infrastructure to expand sales of Vilebrequin products.

The following unaudited pro forma information presents the results of operations of the Company as if the Vilebrequin acquisition had taken place on February 1, 2011:

The unaudited pro forma results shown above reflect the assumption that the Company would have financed the acquisition under identical terms and conditions as the actual financing and do not reflect any anticipated cost savings that may result from combining the entities. The unaudited pro forma results of operations have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations which actually would have resulted had the Vilebrequin acquisition occurred as of February 1, 2011.

The operating results of Vilebrequin have been included in the Company’s financial statements since August 7, 2012, the date of acquisition, and are reported on a calendar year basis.

Note 3 - Inventories

Wholesale inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first out method) or market. Retail inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market as determined by the retail inventory method. Inventories consist of:

Note 4 – Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential dilutive common shares, consisting of stock options and unvested restricted stock awards outstanding during the period. Approximately 245,393 and 154,777 shares of common stock have

8

Table of Contents

been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012, respectively, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2011, there were no anti-dilutive shares excluded from the diluted per share calculation. For the nine months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, 311,388 and 203,790 shares of common stock, respectively, were issued in connection with the exercise or vesting of equity awards.

A reconciliation between basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

Note 5 - Notes Payable

On August 6, 2012, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for a group of lenders. The credit agreement is a five year senior secured credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $450 million. Amounts available under the credit agreement are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the credit agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at the Company’s option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.5% to 2.0% or prime plus a margin of 0.5% to 1.0%, with the applicable margin determined based on availability under the credit agreement. The credit agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined, under certain circumstances and prohibits payments for cash dividends and stock redemptions until February 2014, after which such payments may be made subject to compliance with certain covenants. As of October 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

The credit agreement is secured by all of the assets of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., J. Percy for Marvin Richards, Ltd., CK Outerwear, LLC, Andrew & Suzanne Company Inc., AM Retail Group, Inc., G-III Apparel Canada ULC, G-III License Company, LLC and AM Apparel Holdings, Inc.

Amounts payable under the Company’s new credit agreement were $265.1 million at October 31, 2012 compared to $245.1 million payable under the Company’s prior financing agreement at October 31, 2011.

On August 7, 2012, as part of the purchase price in connection with the Vilebrequin acquisition, the Company issued €15.0 million (approximately $18.6 million) of unsecured promissory notes to the seller due December 31, 2017, with interest payable at the rate of 5% per year.

Note 6 - Segments

The Company’s reportable segments are business units that offer products through different channels of distribution and are managed separately. The Company operates in four segments: wholesale licensed products, wholesale non-licensed products, retail operations and other. The other segment consists of the operations of the Vilebrequin business added as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Vilebrequin in August 2012. There is substantial intersegment cooperation, cost allocations and sharing of assets. As a result, the Company does not represent that these segments, if operated independently, would report the operating results set forth in the table below. The following information, in thousands, is presented for the three and nine month periods indicated below:

10

Table of Contents

Included in finished goods inventory at October 31, 2012 are approximately $198.3 million, $38.9 million, $55.0 million and $7.6 million of inventories for wholesale licensed products, wholesale non-licensed products, retail operations and other segments, respectively. Included in finished goods inventory at October 31, 2011 are approximately $175.6 million, $37.3 million and $52.3 million of inventories for wholesale licensed products, wholesale non-licensed products and retail operations segments, respectively. Substantially all other assets are commingled.

Note 7 – Investment in Joint Venture

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Finity Apparel Retail Limited to open and operate Calvin Klein Performance retail stores in mainland China and Hong Kong. The Company contributed $153,000 to capital for a 51% ownership interest of the joint venture. The Company and the noncontrolling interest also funded $1,632,000 and $1,568,000, respectively, in shareholder debt. The joint venture began operating retail locations in major Chinese markets beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2013. As the majority owner, the Company consolidates the accounts of this joint venture in its financial statements and the results of operations are included in the retail segment.

In October 2012, AM Retail Group, Inc. (“AM Retail”), a wholly owned subsidiary, sold back its 50% interest in the joint venture with VCS Group LLC that was operating footwear and accessory outlet stores under the name “Vince Camuto.” The proceeds received approximated the carrying cost of the Company’s 50% interest in the joint venture.

Note 8 – Share Repurchase Program

In September 2011, the Company’s board of directors authorized a program to repurchase up to two million shares of its common stock. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend upon a number of factors, including market conditions and prevailing stock prices. Share repurchases may take place on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, and would be made in accordance with applicable securities laws. Pursuant to the share repurchase program, during fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased 125,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.9 million. Repurchased shares are accounted for as treasury stock at cost and will be held in treasury for future use. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the nine months ended October 31, 2012. The Company’s new credit agreement prohibits the repurchase of shares until February 2014, after which repurchases may be made subject to compliance with certain covenants.

Note 9 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” ASU 2011-04 amends Topic 820 to provide common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and International Financial Reporting Standards. Consequently, the amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, as well as providing guidance on how fair value should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards within U.S. GAAP. ASU No. 2011-04 is to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Table of Contents

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments to Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The guidance in ASU 2011-05 is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and presented other comprehensive income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” ASU 2011-12 defers the specific requirement to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income separately with their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-12 did not defer the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. The Company’s other comprehensive income represents foreign currency translation adjustments. The amendments are effective at the same time as the amendments in ASU 2011-05. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and it did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU 2011-08 simplifies how entities test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-12, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment”, an update to their accounting guidance regarding indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment testing and whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test currently required. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements.” ASU 2012-04 contains amendments to clarify the ASC, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the ASC that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, the amendments are intended to make the ASC easier to understand and the fair value measurement guidance easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing needed clarifications. The amendments that do not have transition guidance were effective upon issuance. The amendments that are subject to the transition guidance will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Note 10 – Subsequent Events

The Company has considered subsequent events up to the filing date and does not believe there are any occurrences that would have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Unless the context otherwise requires, “G-III”, “us”, “we” and “our” refer to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that year. For example, our fiscal year ending January 31, 2013 is referred to as “fiscal 2013”. Vilebrequin reports results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by G-III. Accordingly, the results of Vilebrequin are and will be included in our financial statements for the quarter ended or ending closest to G-III’s fiscal quarter. For example, in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2012, Vilebrequin’s results are included from August 7, the date of acquisition, through September 30, 2012.

Various statements contained in this Form 10-Q, in future filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), in our press releases and in oral statements made from time to time by us or on our behalf constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Forward-looking statements also include representations of our expectations or beliefs concerning future events that involve risks and uncertainties, including:

These forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations and judgments and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are unforeseeable and beyond our control. A detailed discussion of significant risk factors that have the potential to cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations is described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2012 and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 31, 2012. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Recent Developments

On August 7, 2012, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Vilebrequin International SA, (“Vilebrequin”) for a total purchase price of €85.5 million (approximately $106.2 million), of which €70.5 million (approximately $87.6 million) was paid in cash and €15 million (approximately $18.6 million) was paid by delivery of unsecured promissory notes, due December 31, 2017, with interest payable at the rate of 5% per year. In addition to the purchase price, the purchase agreement provides for up to an additional €22.5 million (approximately $27.9 million) of contingent future payments based upon achieving certain performance objectives related to growth of the Vilebrequin business over the three years ending December 31, 2015. The dollar equivalents to the amounts in Euro set forth in this paragraph are based on the exchange rate at the time of the acquisition.

Vilebrequin is a leading global provider of swimwear, accessories and resort wear. Vilebrequin sells its products through a network of company owned and franchised specialty retail stores and shops, as well as through select wholesale distribution. We believe that Vilebrequin is a status brand that is capable of significant worldwide expansion. A substantial majority of Vilebrequin’s current revenues are derived from sales in Europe and the United States.

Concurrently with the acquisition of Vilebrequin, we entered into a new credit agreement that provides for aggregate borrowings of up to $450 million compared to $300 million under our prior financing agreement.

Overview

G-III designs, manufactures and markets an extensive range of apparel, including outerwear, dresses, sportswear, beachwear, women’s suits and women’s performance wear, as well as luggage and women’s handbags, small leather goods and cold weather accessories. We sell our products under our own proprietary brands and labels, licensed brands and private labels. G-III sells swimwear, accessories and resort wear under our own Vilebrequin brand. We also sell a variety of apparel products under our other owned brands which include Andrew Marc, Marc New York, Jessica Howard, Eliza J and Black Rivet, G-III has fashion licenses with respect to numerous well-known brands, including such brands as Calvin Klein, Sean John, Kenneth Cole, Guess, Cole Haan and Tommy Hilfiger. G-III also operates retail stores under the Wilsons Leather, Vilebrequin, Calvin Klein Performance and Andrew Marc names. While our products are sold at a variety of price points through a broad mix of retail partners and our own stores, a majority of our sales are concentrated with our ten largest customers. With the acquisition of Vilebrequin, we also sell swimwear, accessories and resort wear under our Vilebrequin brand, as well as operate and franchise Vilebrequin retail stores.

Our business is dependent on, among other things, retailer and consumer demand for our products. We believe that economic uncertainty and a slowdown in the global macroeconomic environment could continue to negatively impact the level of consumer spending for discretionary items. The current uncertain economic environment has been characterized by a decline in consumer discretionary spending that may affect retailers and sellers of consumer goods, particularly those whose goods are viewed as discretionary purchases, such as fashion apparel and related products, such as ours. We cannot predict the direction in which the current economic environment will move. Continued uncertain macroeconomic conditions may have a negative impact on our results for fiscal 2013.

We operate in fashion markets that are intensely competitive. Our ability to continuously evaluate and respond to changing consumer demands and tastes, across multiple market segments, distribution channels and geographies, is critical to our success. Although our portfolio of brands is aimed at diversifying our risks in this regard, misjudging shifts in consumer preferences could have a negative effect on our business. Our success in the future will depend on our ability to design products that are accepted in the marketplace, source the manufacture of our products on a competitive basis, and continue to diversify our product portfolio and the markets we serve.

We operate our business in four segments: wholesale licensed products, wholesale non-licensed products, retail operations and other. The wholesale licensed products segment includes sales of products under brands licensed by us from third parties. The wholesale non-licensed products segment includes sales of products under our own brands and private label brands. The retail operations segment consists almost entirely of the operations of our Wilsons outlet stores. The other segment consists of the operations of the Vilebrequin business added as a result of our acquisition of Vilebrequin in August 2012 and has both a wholesale and a retail component.

Table of Contents

We have expanded our portfolio of proprietary and licensed brands through acquisitions and by entering into license agreements for new brands or for additional products under previously licensed brands. Our acquisitions have helped to broaden our product offerings, expand our ability to serve different tiers of distribution and add a retail component to our business.

Our acquisitions are part of our strategy to expand our product offerings and increase the portfolio of proprietary and licensed brands that we offer through different tiers of retail distribution and at a variety of price points.

Our recent acquisition of Vilebrequin provides us with a premier brand selling status products worldwide. We believe that Vilebrequin is a powerful brand and expect to add more company owned and franchised retail locations and increase our wholesale distribution throughout the world, as well as develop the business beyond its heritage in men’s swimwear, accessories and resort wear.

When we acquired Andrew Marc, it was a supplier of fine outerwear and handbags for both men and women to upscale specialty and department stores and we have since expanded our product categories and product offerings for Andrew Marc, both in house and through licensing arrangements. We began a program to license our Andrew Marc and Marc New York brands and have entered into agreements to license these brands for a number of product categories.

Our retail operations segment consists almost entirely of our Wilsons outlet store business. We continue to believe that operation of the Wilsons outlet stores is part of our core competency, as outerwear comprised about one-half of our net sales at Wilsons in fiscal 2012. As of October 31, 2012, we operated 142 Wilsons outlet stores, 5 Andrew Marc outlet stores and 2 Calvin Klein Performance stores.

In November 2011, we entered into a license agreement granting us the retail rights to distribute and market Calvin Klein women’s performance apparel in the United States, Asia and other select countries around the world. We opened our first Calvin Klein Performance store in Scottsdale, Arizona in February 2012 and opened a second store in San Francisco, California in May 2012. In March 2012, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Finity Apparel Retail Limited to open and operate Calvin Klein Performance retail stores in mainland China and Hong Kong. G-III will retain 51% ownership in the joint venture which began operating retail locations in major Chinese markets in Fall 2012. We consolidate the results of operations of this joint venture in our financial statements. In October 2012, we sold back to the Camuto Group our 50% interest in the joint venture that operated outlet stores under the Vince Camuto name.

The sale of licensed product has been a key element of our business strategy for many years. As part of this strategy, we continue to add new fashion and sports apparel licenses. Our most significant licensor is Calvin Klein with whom we have nine different license agreements.

Commencing April 1, 2012, we have operated under an expanded five year license agreement with the National Football League to manufacture and market men’s and women’s outerwear, sportswear, and swimwear products in the United States under a variety of NFL trademarks.

In November 2011, we entered into a license agreement to develop sportswear, dresses, tailored clothing, activewear and sweaters under the Kensie and Mac & Jac brands for the U.S. and Canadian markets. In December 2011, we added licenses under these brands for women’s handbags and cold weather accessories. We began shipping Kensie sportswear in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and began shipping Kensie dresses in July 2012. In December 2011, we entered into a license agreement that expanded our Jessica Simpson products to include women’s outerwear. We began shipping Jessica Simpson outerwear for the Fall 2012 season.

We believe that consumers prefer to buy brands they know and we have continually sought licenses that would increase the portfolio of name brands we offer through different tiers of retail distribution, for a wide array of products at a variety of price points. We believe that brand owners will look to consolidate the number of licensees they engage to develop product and they will seek licensees with a successful track record of expanding brands into new categories. It is our objective to continue to expand our product offerings and we are continually discussing new licensing opportunities with brand owners.

Trends

Retailers are seeking to expand the differentiation of their offerings by devoting more resources to the development of exclusive products, whether by focusing on their own private label products or on products

15

Table of Contents

produced exclusively for a retailer by a national brand manufacturer. Retailers are placing more emphasis on building strong images for their private label and exclusive merchandise. Exclusive brands are only made available to a specific retailer, and thus customers loyal to their brands can only find them in the stores of that retailer.

A number of retailers are experiencing financial difficulties, which in some cases has resulted in bankruptcies, liquidations and/or store closings. The financial difficulties of a retail customer of ours could result in reduced business with that customer. We may also assume higher credit risk relating to receivables of a retail customer experiencing financial difficulty that could result in higher reserves for doubtful accounts or increased write-offs of accounts receivable. We attempt to lower credit risk from our customers by closely monitoring accounts receivable balances and shipping levels, as well as the ongoing financial performance and credit standing of our customers.

We have attempted to respond to these trends by continuing to focus on selling products with recognized brand equity, by attention to design, quality and value and by improving our sourcing capabilities. We have also responded with the strategic acquisitions made by us and new license agreements entered into by us that have added additional licensed and proprietary brands and helped diversify our business by adding new product lines, additional distribution channels and a retail component to our business. We believe that our broad distribution capabilities help us to respond to the various shifts by consumers between distribution channels and that our operational capabilities will enable us to continue to be a vendor of choice for our retail partners.

Results of Operations

Three months ended October 31, 2012 compared to three months ended October 31, 2011

Net sales for the three months ended October 31, 2012 increased to $543.5 million from $510.0 million in the same period last year. Net sales of wholesale licensed products increased to $402.7 million from $374.2 million primarily as a result of $16.9 million in net sales of our new Kensie sportswear and dress lines and an increase of $10.1 million in net sales of licensed sports apparel. Net sales of wholesale non-licensed products in the three months ended October 31, 2012 decreased to $102.6 million from $109.9 million in the same period last year primarily as a result of decreased net sales in our Andrew Marc product lines. Net sales of our retail operations increased to $44.7 million for the three months ended October 31, 2012 from $36.9 million in the same period last year as a result of an increase in the number of stores, as well as a comparative store sales increase of 18.9%. Sales of our recently acquired Vilebrequin business were $6.8 million for the period from August 7, the date of acquisition, through September 30, 2012.

Gross profit increased to $190.2 million, or 35.0% of net sales, for the three months ended October 31, 2012, from $162.3 million, or 31.8% of net sales, in the same period last year. The gross profit percentage in our wholesale licensed products segment was 32.9% in the three months ended October 31, 2012 compared to 29.8% in the same period last year. The gross profit percentage in our wholesale licensed products segment improved due to our new Kensie division which realized higher than average margins, increased sales of our licensed sports apparel products and increased penetration of our Calvin Klein sportswear, dresses and women’s suits in higher margin department stores. The gross profit percentage in our wholesale non-licensed products segment was 29.9% in the three month period ended October 31, 2012 compared to 29.8% in the same period last year. The gross profit percentage for our retail operations segment was 49.8% for the three months ended October 31, 2012 compared to 48.4% for the comparable period last year. Gross profit percentage for the retail operations segment was positively impacted by less promotional activity and a higher margin product mix. The gross profit in our newly added other segment, which consists of our Vilebrequin business, was 70.6%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $106.3 million, or 19.6% of net sales, in the three months ended October 31, 2012 from $87.0 million, or 17.1% of net sales, in the same period last year. This increase is primarily a result of increases in personnel costs ($7.1 million), advertising and promotion expenses ($3.7 million), third party warehousing ($2.8 million) and professional fees ($2.5 million). Personnel costs increased primarily as a result of our new Vilebrequin business and an increase in personnel to staff additional outlet stores in our retail division. Advertising and promotion expenses increased as a result of increased Calvin Klein promotional campaigns, an increase in customer chargebacks during the period and increased required advertising expenses which are generally based on a percentage of net sales of licensed product. Third party warehousing costs increased as a result of our increased shipping volume, as well as storage costs resulting from our higher inventory levels compared to the same period last year. Professional fees increased during the period primarily due to expenses associated with the acquisition of Vilebrequin.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary cash requirements are to fund our seasonal buildup in inventories and accounts receivable, primarily during the second and third fiscal quarters each year. Due to the seasonality of our business, we generally reach our peak borrowings under our asset-based credit facility during our third fiscal quarter. The primary sources to meet our cash requirements have been borrowings under our credit facility and cash generated from operations.

At October 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $39.6 million, outstanding borrowings under our financing agreement were $265.1 million and outstanding promissory notes issued in connection with the acquisition of Vilebrequin in the amount of $18.6 million. At October 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $16.1 million and outstanding borrowings of $245.1 million.

Our contingent liability under open letters of credit was approximately $11.7 million as of October 31, 2012 compared to $18.1 million as of October 31, 2011.

Financing Agreement

On August 6, 2012, we entered into a new credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for a group of lenders. The credit agreement is a five year senior secured credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $450 million. Amounts available under the credit agreement are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the credit agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.5% to 2.0% or prime plus a margin of 0.5% to 1.0%, with the applicable margin determined based on availability under the credit agreement. The credit agreement requires us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined, under certain circumstances and prohibits payments for cash dividends and stock redemptions until February 2014, after which such payments may be made subject to compliance with certain covenants. As of October 31, 2012, we were in compliance with these covenants.

The credit agreement is secured by all of the assets of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., J. Percy for Marvin Richards, Ltd., CK Outerwear, LLC, Andrew & Suzanne Company Inc., AM Retail Group, Inc., G-III Apparel Canada ULC, G-III License Company, LLC and AM Apparel Holdings, Inc.

Share Repurchase Program

In September 2011, our board of directors authorized a program to repurchase up to two million shares of our common stock. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend upon a number of factors, including market conditions and prevailing stock prices. Share repurchases may take place on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, and would be made in accordance with applicable securities laws. Pursuant to the share repurchase program, during fiscal 2012, we repurchased 125,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.9 million. We did not repurchase any shares during the nine months ended October 31, 2012. Repurchased shares are accounted for as treasury stock at cost and will be held in treasury for future use. The Company’s new credit agreement prohibits the repurchase of shares until February 2014, after which repurchases may be made subject to compliance with certain covenants.

Cash from Operating Activities

We used $140.3 million of cash in operating activities during the nine months ended October 31, 2012, primarily as a result of an increase of $193.2 million in accounts receivable and $44.0 million in inventories, offset, in part, by our net income of $48.8 million, an increase in income taxes payable of $21.4 million and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $18.9 million.

The changes in these operating cash flow items are generally consistent with our seasonal pattern of building up inventory for the fall shipping season resulting in the increases in inventory and accounts payable. The fall shipping season begins during the latter half of our second quarter resulting in the increase in accounts receivable during the third quarter.

Cash from Investing Activities

We used $85.3 million of cash in investing activities in the nine months ended October 31, 2012 primarily for our acquisition of Vilebrequin, as well as for $7.0 million in capital expenditures primarily for retail store fittings.

Cash from Financing Activities

Cash from financing activities provided $240.3 million in the nine months ended October 31, 2012, primarily as a result of $235.0 million of net borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We increased our borrowings primarily to fund the acquisition of Vilebrequin and for the purchases of inventory.

Financing Needs

We believe that our cash on hand and cash generated from operations, together with funds available from our credit agreement, are sufficient to meet our expected operating and capital expenditure requirements. We may seek to acquire other businesses in order to expand our product offerings. We may need additional financing in order to complete one or more acquisitions. We cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing, if required, on acceptable terms or at all.
