Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

  1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with Urban Outfitters, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2024.

The Company’s business experiences seasonal fluctuations in net sales and net income, with a more significant portion of net sales typically realized in the second half of each year predominantly due to the year-end holiday period. Historically, and consistent with the retail industry, this seasonality also impacts our working capital requirements, particularly with regard to inventory. Accordingly, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on January 31. All references in these notes to the Company’s fiscal years refer to the fiscal years ended on January 31 in those years. For example, the Company’s fiscal year 2025 will end on January 31, 2025.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and other costs within relevant income statement captions. The update will be effective for the Company in its annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2028, and interim periods thereafter. The Company is currently assessing this update and the additional disclosures that will be required within the notes to its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures. The update requires disaggregated information about an entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction, among other changes. The update will be effective for the Company in its annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026, and can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing this update and the additional disclosures that will be required within the notes to its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that introduces additional segment disclosure requirements. The update requires entities to quantitatively disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker for each reportable segment as well as an amount for other segment items for each reportable segment and a description of their composition. Entities are also required to disclose how reported measures of segment profit or loss are used in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The update will be effective for the Company in its annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025, and interim periods thereafter. The Company is currently assessing this update and expects adoption of this update to result in additional disclosures in the notes to its consolidated financial statements. The update will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented.

  1. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Contract receivables occur when the Company satisfies all of its performance obligations under a contract and recognizes revenue prior to billing or receiving consideration from a customer for which it has an unconditional right to payment. Contract receivables arise from credit card and other electronic payment transactions and sales to the Company's wholesale segment customers and franchisees. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2024, the openingand closing balances of contract receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, were $67,008 and $96,977, respectively. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2023, the opening and closing balances of contract receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, were $70,339 and $77,399, respectively. Contract receivables are included in “Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities represent unearned revenue and result from the Company receiving consideration in a contract with a customer for which it has not satisfied all of its performance obligations. The Company’s contract liabilities result from the issuance of gift cards, customer deposits, Nuuly Rent deferred subscription fee revenue and customer loyalty programs. Gift cards are expected to be redeemed withintwo years of issuance, with the majority of redemptions occurring in the first year. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2024, the opening and closing balances of contract liabilities were $91,408 and $87,517, respectively. For the nine month period ended October 31, 2023, the opening and closing balances of contract liabilities were $82,867 and $70,763, respectively. Contract liabilities are included in “Accrued expenses, accrued compensation and other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the nine month period ended October 31, 2024, the Company recognized $43,646 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. During the nine month period ended October 31, 2023, the Company recognized $32,828 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

Proceeds from the sales and maturities of available-for-sale securities were $309,178 and $242,847 for the nine months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company included in “Other income, net,” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, a net realized loss of $17 and $96 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively, and a net realized gain of $2 and a net realized loss of $4 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, respectively. Amortization of discounts and premiums, net, resulted in a benefit of $1,832 and $6,053 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively, and a benefit of $1,406 and $2,578 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, respectively. Amortization of discounts and premiums, net, is included in “Other income, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Mutual funds represent assets held in an irrevocable rabbi trust for the Company’s Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (“NQDC”). These assets are a source of funds to match the funding obligations to participants in the NQDC but are subject to the Company’s general creditors. The Company elected the fair value option for financial assets for the mutual funds held in the rabbi trust resulting in all unrealized gains and losses being recorded in “Other income, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

  1. Fair Value

The Company utilizes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach that relate to its financial assets and financial liabilities). The levels of the hierarchy are described as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.

Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial assets that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the tables below:

Financial assets

Level 1 assets consist of financial instruments whose value has been based on inputs that use, as their basis, readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services and brokers.

Level 2 assets consist of financial instruments whose value has been based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3 assets consist of financial instruments where there has been no active market. The Company held no Level 3 financial instruments as of October 31, 2024, January 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents (Level 1) approximates carrying value since cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase. As of October 31, 2024, January 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents included cash on hand, cash in banks, money market accounts and marketable securities with maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase.

Non-financial assets

The Company’s non-financial assets, primarily consisting of property and equipment and lease-related right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The fair value of property and equipment was determined using a discounted cash-flow model that utilized Level 3 inputs. The Company’s retail locations are reviewed for impairment at the retail location level, which is the lowest level at which individual cash flows can be identified. In calculating future cash flows, the Company makes estimates regarding future operating results based on its experience and knowledge of market factors in its retail locations. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as property and equipment. For lease right-of-use assets, the Company determines the estimated fair value of the assets by comparing the discounted contractual rent payments to estimated market rent using an acceptable valuation methodology.

During the nine months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company determined that certain long-lived assets at the Company's retail locations were unable to recover their carrying values and were written down to their fair values. During the three months ended October 31, 2024, impairment charges were zero. During the nine months ended October 31, 2024, the Company recorded impairment charges of $815 for one retail location, with a carrying value after impairment of $1,500 related to the right-of-use asset. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company committed to a cease-use date of February 29, 2024 at one retail location for which the lease was not terminated, resulting in lease abandonment charges of $3,786 during the nine months ended October 31, 2024. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1,392 across five retail locations, with a carrying value after impairment of $5,996 related to the right-of-use assets.

  1. Debt

On February 10, 2023, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the fourth amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Company’s amended and restated credit agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), amending the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility with its lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, joint lead arranger and co-book managers along with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Amended Credit Facility"). The Fourth Amendment permits the Company to purchase an equity membership interest in a federal low-income housing tax credit entity. See Note 6, "Tax Credit Investment," for further discussion of the investment.

The Amended Credit Facility provides for loans and letters of credit up to $350,000, subject to a borrowing base that is comprised of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and inventory and includes a swing-line sub-facility, a multicurrency sub-facility and the option to expand the facility by up to $150,000. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Amended Credit Facility matures in June 2027.

The Amended Credit Facility provides for interest on borrowings, at the Company’s option, at either (i) adjusted SOFR, CDOR, SONIA or EURIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.375%, or (ii) an adjusted ABR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.375%, each such applicable margin depending on the level of availability under the Amended Credit Facility. Depending on the type of borrowing, interest on the Amended Credit Facility is payable monthly, quarterly or at the end of the applicable interest period. A commitment fee of 0.20% is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Amended Credit Facility.

All obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. The obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest in inventory, accounts receivable and certain other assets of the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. The obligations of URBN Canada Retail, Inc. are secured by a first-priority security interest in its inventory, accounts receivable and certain other assets. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, negative and affirmative covenants and provisions relating to events of default.

As of October 31, 2024, the Company had $0 in borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility. As of October 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement and expects to remain in compliance with all terms, including covenants, of the Amended Credit Agreement. Outstanding stand-by letters of credit, which reduce the funds available under the Amended Credit Facility, were $9,668. Interest expense for the Amended Credit Facility was $731 and $727 for the nine months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which was included in “Other income, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

  1. Tax Credit Investment

On February 10, 2023, the Company committed $100,000 to purchase an equity membership interest in a federal low-income housing tax credit entity. An initial payment of $20,000 was paid at closing with the remaining balance payable in quarterly installments over a five-year period beginning in fiscal 2024. The present value of such payments was $62,120 and was recorded as an increase to the initial tax credit investment asset and liability. In exchange for the total payments of $100,000, the Company expects to realize a comparable amount of tax credits and other tax benefits that will reduce its future federal income tax payments. Although the investment vehicle is considered a variable interest entity, the Company is not the primary beneficiary, and therefore, the investment is not consolidated. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient method of amortization, which approximates the proportional amortization method, to amortize the investment to income tax expense in proportion to the tax credits received over an estimated 10-year tax credit period beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company included in "Other income, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, interest expense related to the accretion of the liability of $1,221 and $3,763 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively, and $1,344 and $4,875 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, respectively. Included in "Income tax expense" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income was amortization of the investment of $4,112 and $12,872 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively, and $3,976 and $11,929 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, respectively. Also included in "Income tax expense" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income were income tax credits and other income tax benefits of $6,012 and $18,262 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively, and $5,600 and $16,979 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, respectively. The carrying value of the investment is recorded in "Other assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liabilities for the present value of the estimated future capital contributions are recorded in "Accrued expenses, accrued compensation and other current liabilities" and "Other non-current liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table summarizes the balances related to the investment at October 31, 2024, January 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023:

  1. Share-Based Compensation

The Company maintains stock incentive plans pursuant to which it can grant restricted shares, unrestricted shares, incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance stock units (“PSUs”) or stock appreciation rights. The fair value of PSUs and RSUs is equal to the stock price on the date of the grant. Share-based compensation expense included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, was as follows:

  1. Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for the Company's stock options, performance stock units and restricted stock units. The following is a reconciliation of the weighted-average common shares outstanding and calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share:

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is party to various legal proceedings arising from normal business activities. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  1. Segment Reporting

The Company offers lifestyle-oriented general merchandise and consumer products and services through a portfolio of global consumer brands. The Company operates three reportable segments – “Retail,” “Nuuly” and “Wholesale.”

The Company’s Retail segment includes Anthropologie (which includes the Anthropologie and Terrain brands), Free People (which includes the Free People and FP Movement brands), Urban Outfitters and Menus & Venues. The Company has aggregated its brands into the Retail segment based upon their shared management, customer base and economic characteristics. Reporting in this format provides management with the financial information necessary to evaluate the success of the segments and the overall business. The Company’s Retail segment omni-channel strategy enhances its customers’ brand experience by providing a seamless approach to the customer shopping experience. All Company-owned Retail segment shopping channels are closely integrated, including retail locations, websites, mobile applications, catalogs and customer contact centers.

The Nuuly segment includes the Nuuly brand, which offers customers a more sustainable way to explore fashion primarily through a monthly women’s apparel subscription rental service.

The Company’s Wholesale segment includes the Free People, FP Movement and Urban Outfitters brands. The Wholesale segment sells through department and specialty stores worldwide, digital businesses and the Retail segment.

The Company evaluates the performance of each segment based on the net sales and income from operations (excluding intercompany charges) of the segment. The Company accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales and transfers were made to third parties making similar volume purchases. Corporate expenses include expenses incurred and directed by the corporate office that are not allocated to segments. The principal identifiable assets for the Retail and Wholesale segments are inventory and property and equipment. The principal identifiable assets for the Nuuly segment are rental product and property and equipment.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the policies described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024. All of the Company’s segments are highly diversified. No one customer constitutes more than 10% of the Company’s total consolidated net sales. A summary of the information about the Company’s operations by segment is as follows:
