MOVADO GROUP INC

SOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Business

Movado Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) designs, sources, markets and distributes quality watches with prominent brands across most price categories of the watch industry. In fiscal 2025, the Company marketed the following distinct brands of watches: Movado, Concord, EBEL, Olivia Burton, MVMT, Coach, Tommy Hilfiger, Hugo Boss, Lacoste and Calvin Klein. The Company also designs, sources, markets and distributes jewelry and other accessories under certain of its brands.

Movado (with the exception of certain Movado collections), EBEL and Concord watches, as well as a limited number of Calvin Klein watch styles, are manufactured in Switzerland by independent third-party assemblers using Swiss movements and other parts sourced by the Company’s Swiss operations. All of the Company’s products are manufactured using components obtained from third party suppliers. Certain Movado collections of watches are manufactured by independent contractors in Asia using Swiss movements. Coach, Hugo Boss, Lacoste, Olivia Burton, MVMT, Tommy Hilfiger and most Calvin Klein watches are manufactured by independent contractors in Asia. The Company’s jewelry and other accessories are manufactured by independent contractors in Asia and, to a lesser extent, the United States.

In addition to its sales to trade customers and independent distributors, the Company sells directly to consumers via its e-commerce platforms and also operates 52 retail outlet locations throughout the United States andfour in Canada, through which it sells current and discontinued models and factory seconds of all of the Company’s watch brands.

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. To the extent a subsidiary is not wholly-owned, any related noncontrolling interests are included as a separate component of Shareholders’ Equity.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgment. These estimates include accounting for sales discounts, returns, markdowns, allowance for expected credit losses, allowances and incentives, warranties, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, inventory write-downs, stock-based compensation, pensions, contingencies and impairments of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Translation of Foreign Currency Financial Statements and Foreign Currency Transactions

The financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries have been translated into United States dollars by translating balance sheet accounts at year-end exchange rates and the weighted average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses, gains, losses and cash flows. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are charged or credited to earnings as incurred. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are reflected in the equity section of the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities at date of purchase ofthree months or less.

Restricted cash is comprised of cash or cash equivalents which has been placed into an account that is restricted for a specific use and from which the Company cannot withdraw the cash on demand.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables as shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are net of various allowances. The Company utilizes a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires the use of a forward-looking expected credit loss rate for its trade accounts receivables. The Company writes off uncollectible trade receivables once collection efforts have been exhausted and third parties confirm the balance is not recoverable.

Included in Trade receivables are amounts due from trade customers including department stores, jewelry store chains, independent jewelers, third-party e-commerce retailers and payment processors used by the Company's owned e-comm erce websites. All of the Company’s watch brands are also marketed outside the U.S. through a network of independent distributors. Accounts receivable are stated net of reserves for expected credit losses, returns and allowances of $26.1 million and $23.0 million at January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accounts receivable are also stated net of co-operative advertising allowances of $4.2 million and $5.5 million at January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Co-operative advertising allowances are credits taken by the customer at a future date on previously executed co-operative advertising.

The Company’s concentrations of credit risk arise primarily from accounts receivable related to trade customers during the peak selling seasons. The Company has significant accounts receivable balances due from major national chain and department stores and third-party e-commerce retailers. The Company’s results of operations could be materially adversely affected in the event any of these customers or a group of these customers defaulted on all or a significant portion of their obligations to the Company. As of January 31, 2025, except for those accounts provided for in the allowance for expected credit losses, the Company knew of no situations with any of the Company’s major customers which would indicate any such customer’s inability to make its required payments.

No single customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales during any of the years in the three-year period ended January 31, 2025. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s account receivable balance at January 31, 2025 or 2024.

Inventories

The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the average cost method. The Company performs reviews of its on-hand inventory to determine amounts, if any, of inventory that is deemed discontinued, excess, or unsaleable. Inventory classified as discontinued, together with the related component parts that can be assembled into saleable finished goods, is sold primarily through the Company’s retail outlet locations. The Company retains adequate levels of component parts to facilitate both the manufacturing of its watches as well as the after-sales service of its watches for an extended period of time after the discontinuance of the manufacturing of such watches. The adjustment to reduce the value of component parts below their cost to their net realizable value is based on the timing of when a component part is no longer associated with a watch that is being manufactured as well as the significant assumption related to the anticipated utilization of component parts for after-sales service.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment, including computer software, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company capitalizes certain computer software costs after technological feasibility has been established. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of property, plant and equipment and related depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts upon the disposition or retirement of such assets and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operating income.

Intangibles

Intangible assets consist primarily of trade names, customer relationships and trademarks. In accordance with applicable guidance, the Company estimates and records the fair value of purchased intangible assets at the time of their acquisition. The fair values of these intangible assets are estimated at the time of acquisition based on independent third-party appraisals. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, which range from three toten years, and are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their related carrying values may not be fully recoverable. The Company determined that there wasno impairment in fiscal 2025, fiscal 2024 or in fiscal 2023.

Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interest is recognized as equity in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and represents ownership interests in the Company’s subsidiaries held by third parties.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives of its depreciable assets based on factors including historical experience, the expected beneficial service period of the asset, the quality and durability of the asset and the Company’s maintenance policy including periodic upgrades. Changes in useful lives are made on a prospective basis unless factors indicate the carrying amounts of the assets may not be recoverable and an impairment is necessary.

The Company performs an impairment review of its long-lived assets once events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. When such a determination has been made, management compares the carrying value of the asset groups with their estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If it is determined that an impairment has occurred, the fair value of the asset group is determined and compared to its carrying value. The excess of the carrying value over the fair value, if any, is recognized as a loss during that period. The impairment is calculated as the difference between asset carrying values and their estimated fair values. No impairment charge was recorded in fiscal 2025, fiscal 2024 or in fiscal 2023.

Investments Without Readily Determinable Fair Values

From time to time the Company may make minority investments in growth companies in the consumer products sector and other sectors relevant to its business, including certain of the Company's suppliers and customers, as well as in venture capital funds that invest in companies in media, entertainment, information technology and technology-related fields and in digital assets. The Company has evaluated and will regularly evaluate the carrying value of its investments. The carrying value of the investments are recorded in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at January 31, 2025 and 2024.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with the accounting guidance which requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. A significant portion of the Company’s purchases are denominated in Swiss Francs and, to a lesser extent, the Japanese Yen. The Company also sells to third-party customers in a variety of foreign currencies, most notably the Euro, Swiss Franc and the British Pound. The Company reduces its exposure to the Swiss Franc, Euro, British Pound, Chinese Yuan and Japanese Yen exchange rate risks through a hedging program. Under the hedging program, the Company manages most of its foreign currency exposures on a consolidated basis, which allows it to net certain exposures and take advantage of natural offsets. In the event these exposures do not offset, from time to time the Company uses various derivative financial instruments to further reduce the net exposures to currency fluctuations, predominately forward and option contracts. Certain of these contracts meet the requirements of qualified hedges. In these circumstances, the Company designates and documents these derivative instruments as a cash flow hedge of a specific underlying exposure, as well as the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions. Changes in the fair value of hedges designated and documented as a cash flow hedge and which are highly effective, are recorded in other comprehensive income until the underlying transaction affects earnings, and then are later reclassified into earnings in the same account as the hedged transaction. The earnings impact is mostly offset by the effects of currency movements on the underlying hedged transactions. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at each fiscal quarter thereafter, the effectiveness of the derivative instrument hedging the underlying forecasted cash flow transaction. The Company does not exclude any designated cash flow hedges from its effective testing. Hedge accounting is discontinued if it is determined that the derivative is not highly effective.

From time to time the Company uses forward exchange contracts, which do not meet the requirements of qualified hedges, to offset its exposure to certain foreign currency receivables and liabilities. These forward contracts are not designated as qualified hedges and, therefore, changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in earnings in the period they arise, thereby offsetting the current earnings effect resulting from the revaluation of the related foreign currency receivables and liabilities.

All of the Company’s derivative instruments have fair values which can be determined directly or indirectly based on available market data. The Company does not enter into any derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Revenue Recognition

Wholesale revenue is recognized and recorded when a contract is in place, obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied and control is transferred to the customer. Such revenue is measured as the ultimate amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods including variable consideration. The Company has determined that transfer of control passes to the wholesale customer upon shipment or upon receipt depending on the agreement with the customer and shipping terms. Control passes to outlet store customers at the time of sale and to substantially all e-commerce customers upon shipment. Factors considered in the transfer of control include the right to payment, transfer of legal title, physical possession and customer acceptance of the goods and whether significant risks and rewards for the goods belong with the customer. The Company records estimates of variable consideration, which includes sales returns, markdowns, volume-based programs and sales and cash discount allowances as a reduction of revenue in the same period that the sales are recorded. These estimates are based upon the expected value method considering all reasonably available information including historical analysis, customer agreements and/or currently known factors that arise in the normal course of business. Returns, discounts and allowances have historically been within the Company’s expectations and the provisions established. The future provisional rates may differ from those experienced in the past. Taxes imposed by governmental authorities on the Company's revenue-producing activities with customers, such as sales taxes and value added taxes, are excluded from net sales.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales of the Company’s products consist primarily of costs for raw materials, component costs, royalties, depreciation, amortization, assembly costs, shipping to customers, design costs and unit overhead costs associated with the Company’s supply chain operations predominately in Switzerland and Asia. The Company’s supply chain operations consist of logistics management of assembly operations and product sourcing predominately in Switzerland and Asia and minor assembly in Switzerland. The Swiss watch movements used in the manufacture of Movado, EBEL and Concord watches, as well as certain Calvin Klein watch styles, are purchased from three suppliers, one of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a competitor of the Company, and only one of which supplies mechanical movements. The elimination or disruption of any of these manufacturers could disrupt the Company's Swiss watch operations. This is particularly true for mechanical movements given the single source of supply, although mechanical movements are only used in a relatively small number of the Company's watch styles.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses

The Company’s SG&A expenses consist primarily of marketing, selling, distribution, general and administrative expenses.

Marketing expenditures are based principally on overall strategic considerations relative to maintaining or increasing market share in markets that management considers to be crucial to the Company’s continued success as well as on general economic conditions in the various markets around the world in which the Company sells its products. Marketing expenses include salaries, various forms of media advertising, digital advertising (including social media), customer acquisition costs and co-operative advertising with customers and distributors and other point of sale marketing and promotional spending.

Selling expenses consist primarily of salaries, sales commissions, salesforce travel and related expenses, credit card fees, depreciation and amortization and operating costs incurred in connection with the Company’s retail business. Sales commissions vary with overall sales levels. Retail selling expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses and store occupancy costs.

Distribution expenses consist of costs of running distribution centers and customer service, and include primarily salaries, rental and other occupancy costs, security, depreciation and amortization of furniture and leasehold improvements and shipping supplies.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other employee compensation including performance-based compensation, employee benefit plan costs, office rent, management information systems costs, professional fees, bad debts, depreciation and amortization of furniture, computer software, leasehold improvements, amortization of finite-lived intangible assets, patent and trademark expenses and various other general corporate expenses.

Warranty Costs

All watches sold by the Company come with limited warranties covering the movement against defects in material and workmanship for periods generally ranging fromtwo tothree years from the date of purchase. When changes in warranty costs are experienced, the Company will adjust the warranty liability as required. The Company records an estimate for future warranty costs based on historical repair costs. Warranty costs have historically been within the Company’s expectations and the provisions established. If such costs were to substantially exceed estimates, they could have an adverse effect on the Company's operating results.

The warranty liability, included in accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and activity for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was as follows (in thousands):

Pre-opening Costs

Marketing and administrative costs associated with the opening of retail stores are expensed in the period incurred.

Marketing

The Company expenses the production costs of an advertising campaign at the commencement date of the advertising campaign. Included in marketing expenses are costs associated with co-operative advertising, media advertising, digital advertising, customer acquisition costs, production costs, costs of point of sale materials and displays and internal payroll related costs. These costs are recorded as SG&A expenses. The Company participates in co-operative advertising programs on a voluntary basis and receives a “separately identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration.” Since the amount of consideration paid to the retailer does not exceed the fair value of the benefit received by the Company, these costs are recorded as SG&A expenses as opposed to being recorded as a reduction of revenue. Marketing expense for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $146.5 million, $129.1 million and $126.2 million, respectively.

Included in other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are the costs of certain prepaid advertising, including principally product displays and point of sale materials. Prepaid advertising accounted for $6.5 million and $4.2 million in other non-current assets at January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Amounts charged to customers for shipping and handling were$1.6 million, $1.8 million and $1.7 million for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The costs related to shipping and handling were$12.3 million, $12.0 million and $14.6 million for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The amounts charged and incurred by the Company related to shipping and handling are included in net sales and cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively.

The Company, under ASC Topic 740, follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax laws and tax rates in each jurisdiction where the Company operates and applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities due to a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, the amounts of any future tax benefits are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent such benefits are not expected to be realized on a more-likely-than-not basis. The Company calculates estimated income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves estimating actual current tax expense along with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for both book and tax purposes.

The Company follows guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This guidance clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement standard for an income tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This guidance also provides instructions for de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transitions. Interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and as deferred tax liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Earnings Per Share

The Company presents net income attributable to Movado Group, Inc. after adjusting for noncontrolling interests, as applicable, per share on a basic and diluted basis. Basic earnings per share is computed using weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for dilutive common stock equivalents.

The number of shares used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in thousands):

For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, approximately 681,000,682,000 and 296,000 respectively, of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which requires that certain assumptions be made to calculate the fair value of each option at the grant date. The expected life of stock option grants is determined using historical data and represents the time period during which the stock option is expected to be outstanding until it is exercised. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. treasury note interest rate in effect on the date of grant for the expected life of the stock option. The expected stock price volatility is derived from historical volatility and calculated based on the estimated term structure of the stock option grant. The expected dividend yield is calculated using the Company’s expected average of annualized dividend yields and applied over the expected term of the option. Management monitors stock option exercises and employee termination patterns to estimate forfeitures rates within the valuation model. Separate groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior are considered separately for valuation purposes.

In addition to stock options, the Company may also grant stock awards to employees and directors. The stock awards are generally in the form of time-vesting restricted stock unit awards (pursuant to which unrestricted shares of Common Stock are issued to the grantee when the award vests) or performance-based awards (under which vesting occurs only if one or more predetermined financial goals are achieved within the relevant performance period); both are subject to the participant’s continued employment (or board service) with the Company through such vesting date. Stock awards generally are cliff-vested after three years from the date of grant (one year in the case of directors’ awards). The fair value of stock awards is generally equal to the closing price of the Company’s publicly-traded common stock on the grant date.

Compensation expense for all awards is accrued based on the estimated number of instruments for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered as well as awards expected to be paid in cash. This estimate is reflected in the period the stock option and stock awards are either granted or canceled. Expense related to stock options and stock awards compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting term and, as applicable, only if the performance condition is probable of being achieved.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) attributable to the Movado Group, Inc. and other gains and losses that are not included in net income (loss), but are recorded directly in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity, such as the unrealized gains and losses on the translation of the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations and net unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the Company's defined benefit plan and available for sale securities.

NOTE 1A – RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In late January 2025, the Company became aware of allegations of misconduct within the Dubai branch (the “Dubai Branch”) of the Company’s Swiss subsidiary, MGI Luxury Group Sárl, related to sales to certain customers in the Middle East, India & Asia Pacific region (the “Affected Region”). Promptly thereafter, the Company retained outside counsel to conduct an investigation into these allegations. Based on that investigation, the Company has determined that the former managing director of the Dubai Branch, who oversaw the Affected Region, as well as certain employees under his direction, took actions that resulted in an overstatement of sales, premature recognition of sales, and underreporting of credit notes (e.g., sales discounts) owed to customers in the Affected Region. These actions included the use of a third-party warehouse unknown to the Company’s management to facilitate the premature recognition of sales, and the falsification of documents to circumvent internal controls. The conduct occurred over a period of approximately five years (beginning with the Company’s fiscal year ended January 31, 2021). The investigation has not identified any impact to reported sales to customers in other regions, nor has the investigation identified any knowledge of, or participation in, the misconduct by Company employees (whether members of management or otherwise) outside of the Affected Region. The Company has terminated the now former managing director of the Dubai Branch.

The Company has concluded that its historical consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2024 and 2023, and the interim periods within fiscal years 2025 and 2024 (the “Affected Periods”), require restatement to properly record the extent and timing of sales earned and credits issued during the relevant time period. Additionally, the restated interim periods of fiscal 2025 reflect a reduction in operating expenses as a result of the reversal of certain accruals due to the lower adjusted operating results. As a result, the Company is including restated Consolidated Financial Statements for the Affected Periods within the footnotes to these financial statements. The misstatements did not impact the Company’s cash flows or compliance with the debt covenants in the Company’s credit agreement.

The Company has restated herein its audited Consolidated Financial Statements at January 31, 2024 and for the years ended January 31, 2024 and January 31, 2023.

The Company has also restated impacted amounts within the accompanying footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following amounts (in thousands) were restated in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2024 and 2023.

The following amounts (in thousands) were restated in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2024 and 2023.

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07 "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" which requires expanded disclosures about an entity's reportable segments, including more enhanced information about a reportable segment's expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how an entity's chief operating decision maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, and on a retrospective basis for all periods presented.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" which requires expanded income tax disclosures primarily related to an entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and should be adopted on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine the impact of adoption on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" which requires disclosure about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. The new disclosure requirements are effective for the Company's annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption in its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3 - COST SAVINGS INITIATIVE

During fiscal year 2025, in light of the ongoing challenging consumer-spending environment, the Company committed to a cost-savings initiative to reduce operating expenses through headcount reductions, bringing them more in line with sales.

During fiscal year 2025, the Company recorded$4.6 million in accruals for severance and employee-related charges and early lease termination charges which are included in Selling, general and administrative in the Consolidated Statements of operations for the year ended January 31, 2025. The amounts are included in the Watch and Accessory segment with$1.9 million in the United States locations and $2.7 million in the International locations.

Of the total amount recorded, $1.3 million was paid related to severance and employee-related charges during fiscal year 2025, and the remaining $2.8 million is included in Accrued payroll and benefits and $0.5 million is included in Accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at January 31, 2025. The Company expects the remaining severance and employee-related expenses and the early lease termination expenses to be paid during fiscal year 2026.

NOTE 4 –JOINT VENTURES

Spain

From December 2018 through January 31, 2023, the Company owned 51% of the entity that distributes its products in Spain pursuant to a joint venture with a third party. The results of the joint venture have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of acquisition. Effective January 31, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 49% interest by exercising a call option under the joint venture agreement. The Company paid a purchase price of $1.9 million for the remaining 49% interest.

India

In order to more cost effectively market and distribute the Company’s products to customers in India, on October 4, 2021, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Bizotico, an Indian company that historically distributed certain of the Company’s products in that country. The agreement governs the establishment of a joint venture, MGI Distribution Private Limited (“MGI India”), and sets out the terms governing the Company’s and Bizotico’s relationship as shareholders of MGI India, and terms on which the joint venture will be managed.

On January 24, 2022, the Company contributed approximately 89 million Indian rupees (equivalent to approximately $1.2 million US dollars) to the joint venture and became an 80% shareholder and the minority shareholder Bizotico contributed approximately 22 million Indian rupees (equivalent to approximately $0.3 million US dollars). The Company controls all of the significant participating rights of the joint venture. As the Company controls all of the significant participating rights of the joint venture and is the majority interest holder in MGI India, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the joint venture are consolidated and included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of establishment within the Watch and Accessory Brands segment. Bizotico’s interest is reflected in Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Noncontrolling interest in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 5 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

As previously disclosed, the Company performs its annual impairment assessment of intangible assets at the beginning of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or if an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount.

The changes in the carrying amount of other intangible assets during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 are as follows (in thousands):

The estimated future amortization expense during each of the next five fiscal years is as follows:

NOTE 6 – INVENTORIES

Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

NOTE 7 – PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

A summary of the components of property, plant and equipment and their estimated useful lives is as follows (in thousands):

Depreciation and amortization expense from operations related to property, plant and equipment for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 was$7.2 million, $7.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively, which includes computer software amortization expense for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 of$2.0 million, $2.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

NOTE 8 – DEBT AND LINES OF CREDIT

The Company and its U.S. and Swiss subsidiaries (collectively, the "Borrowers") are parties to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement originally dated October 12, 2018 (as subsequently amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”). The Credit Agreement provides for a $100.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) and has a maturity date of October 28, 2026. The Facility includes a $15.0 million letter of credit subfacility, a $25.0 million swingline subfacility and a $75.0 million sublimit for borrowings by the Swiss Borrower, with provisions for uncommitted increases to the Facility of up to $50.0 million in the aggregate subject to customary terms and conditions. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants binding on the Company and its subsidiaries that are customary for credit facilities of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions and limitations on the incurrence of debt and liens, dispositions of assets, capital expenditures, dividends and other payments in respect of equity interests, the making of loans and equity investments, mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, and transactions with affiliates (in each case, subject to various exceptions).

The borrowings under the Facility are joint and several obligations of the Borrowers and are also cross-guaranteed by each Borrower, except that the Swiss Borrower is not liable for, nor does it guarantee, the obligations of the U.S. Borrowers. In addition, the Borrowers’ obligations under the Facility are secured by first priority liens, subject to permitted liens, on substantially all of the U.S. Borrowers’ assets other than certain excluded assets. The Swiss Borrower does not provide collateral to secure the obligations under the Facility.

As of both January 31, 2025, and January 31, 2024, there wereno amounts of loans outstanding under the Facility. Availability under the Facility was reduced by the aggregate number of letters of credit outstanding, issued in connection with retail and operating facility leases to various landlords and for Canadian payroll to the Royal Bank of Canada, totaling approximately$0.3 million at both January 31, 2025, and January 31, 2024. At January 31, 2025, the letters of credit have expiration dates through June 2, 2025. As of both January 31, 2025, and January 31, 2024, availability under the Facility was $99.7 million.

The Company had weighted average borrowings under the Facility ofzero during both fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, respectively.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at rates generally based on either the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or a specified base rate, as selected periodically by the Company. The SOFR-based loans bear interest at SOFR plus a spread ranging from 1.00% to 1.75% per annum and the base rate loans bear interest at the base rate plus a spread ranging from 0% to 0.75% per annum, with the spread in each case being based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of both January 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company’s spreads were 1.00% over SOFR and 0% over the base rate.

The Company's Swiss subsidiary maintains unsecured lines of credit with a Swiss bank that are subject to repayment upon demand. As of January 31, 2025, and 2024, these lines of credit totaled 6.5 million Swiss Francs for both periods, with a dollar equivalent of $7.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively. As of January 31, 2025, and 2024, there wereno borrowings against these lines. As of January 31, 2025, and 2024, two European banks had guaranteed obligations to third parties on behalf oftwo of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries in the dollar equivalent of$1.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, in various foreign currencies, of which $0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, was a restricted deposit as it relates to lease agreements.

Cash paid for interest, including unused commitment fees, was $0.3 million during fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, and amortization of debt fees was $0.2 million during fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023.

NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company addresses certain financial exposures that include the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the effects of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. As of January 31, 2025, the Company did not have any net forward contracts in its hedging portfolio that qualified as cash flow hedging instruments. The net gain or loss on the derivatives is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings using the same revenue or expense category that the hedged item impacted. The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts not designated as qualified hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. As of January 31, 2025, the Company’s net forward contracts hedging portfolio not designated as qualified hedges consisted of 28.0 million Swiss Francs equivalent,32.5 million U.S. dollars equivalent,25.3 million Euros equivalent and 1.5 million British Pounds equivalent with various expiry dates ranging through July 17, 2025. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in earnings in the period they arise. Net gains or losses related to these forward contracts are included in cost of sales, selling and general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The cash flows related to these foreign currency contracts are classified in operating activities.

The following table presents the fair values of the Company's derivative financial instruments included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of net deferred gains on derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges included in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss)were $0 and $43,000, respectively. For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company reclassified $46,000 and an immaterial amount, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive income to Net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. No ineffectiveness has been recorded in fiscal year 2025.

See Note 10 - Fair Value Measurements for further information about how fair value of derivative assets and liabilities are determined.

NOTE 10 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting guidance 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 the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

•

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.

The guidance requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of January 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

(1)

See Note 18 for a discussion of the fair value of the assets held in the Company’s defined benefit plan in Switzerland.

The fair values of the Company’s available-for-sale securities are based on quoted market prices. The fair value of the short-term investment, which is a guaranteed investment certificate, is based on its purchase price plus one half of one percent calculated annually. The assets related to the Company’s defined contribution supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) consist of both employer (employee unvested) and employee assets which are invested in investment funds with fair values calculated based on quoted market prices. The SERP liability represents the Company’s liability to the employees in the plan for their vested balances. The hedge derivatives consist of cash flow hedging instruments and forward contracts (see Note 9 for further discussion) and are entered into by the Company principally to reduce its exposure to Swiss Franc and Euro exchange rate risks. Fair values of the Company’s hedge derivatives are calculated based on quoted foreign exchange rates and quoted interest rates.

The Company sponsors a defined pension plan in Switzerland. The plan covers certain international employees and is based on years of service and compensation on a career-average pay basis. The assets within the plan are classified as a Level 3 asset within the fair value hierarchy and consist of an investment in pooled assets and include separate employee accounts that are invested in equity securities, debt securities and real estate. The values of the separate accounts invested are based on values provided by the administrator of the funds that cannot be readily derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The value of the assets is part of the defined benefit plan and included in other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, respectively.

There wereno transfers between any levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of the Company’s fair value measurements.

Investments Without Readily Determinable Fair Values

From time to time, the Company may make minority investments in growth companies in the consumer products sector and other sectors relevant to its business, including certain of the Company's suppliers and customers, as well as in venture capital funds that invest in companies in media, entertainment, information technology and technology-related fields and in digital assets. Through fiscal 2024, the Company invested approximately $8.4 million and during fiscal 2025 the Company invested an additional$5.7 million in venture capital funds (see Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies for discussion of commitments made related to venture capital funds). The Company has evaluated and will regularly evaluate the carrying value of its investments. One consumer products company in which the Company made an equity investment in fiscal year 2022 sold its business and assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 in a transaction that yielded little return for equity holders. As a result, the Company fully impaired its $0.5 million investment in this entity in fiscal 2024 and is recorded in Other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The carrying value of the remaining investments are recorded in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Licensing Agreements:

The Company has minimum commitments related to the Company’s license agreements and endorsement agreements with brand ambassadors, and also includes service agreements. The Company sources, distributes, advertises and sells watches and jewelry pursuant to its exclusive license agreements with unaffiliated licensors. Royalty amounts under the license agreements are generally based on a stipulated percentage of revenues, although most of these agreements contain provisions for the payment of minimum annual royalty amounts. The license agreements have various terms, and some have renewal options, provided that minimum sales levels are achieved. Additionally, the license agreements require the Company to pay minimum annual advertising amounts. As of January 31, 2025, the total amount of the Company’s minimum commitments related to its license agreements and endorsement agreements, which includes service agreements, was$289.4 million, payable in the next seven years.

Purchase Obligations:

The Company had outstanding purchase obligations of $86.6 million with suppliers at the end of fiscal 2025 primarily for raw materials, finished watches and packaging in the normal course of business. These purchase obligation amounts do not represent total anticipated purchases but represent only amounts to be paid for items required to be purchased under agreements that are enforceable, legally binding and specify minimum quantity, price and term.

Tax:

The Company had previously recorded an obligation of $28.2 million due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was signed into law on December 22, 2017, and imposed a one-time mandatory deemed repatriation tax on cumulative undistributed foreign earnings which have not been previously taxed. The obligation is payable in installments over eight years, with the first payment having been made in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. At January 31, 2025, the Company had an outstanding obligation of $7.1 million.

The Company believes that income tax reserves are adequate; however, amounts asserted by taxing authorities could be greater or less than amounts accrued and reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Accordingly, the Company could record adjustments to the amounts for federal, state, and foreign liabilities in the future as the Company revises estimates or settles or otherwise resolves the underlying matters. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may take new positions that could increase or decrease unrecognized tax benefits in future periods. See Note 13 – Income Taxes for more information.

Investments:

From time to time, the Company may make minority investments in growth companies in the consumer products sector and other sectors relevant to its business, including certain of the Company's suppliers and customers, as well as in venture capital funds that invest in companies in media, entertainment, information technology and technology-related fields and in digital assets. During fiscal 2022, the Company committed to invest up to $21.5 million in such investments. Through fiscal 2024 the Company invested approximately $8.4 million and during fiscal 2025 the Company invested an additional $5.7 million and may be called upon to satisfy capital calls in respect of the remaining$7.5 million in such commitments at any time during a period generally ending ten years after the first capital call in respect of a given commitment.

Litigation:

The Company is involved in legal proceedings and claims from time to time, in the ordinary course of its business. Legal reserves are recorded in accordance with the accounting guidance for contingencies. Contingencies are inherently unpredictable and it is possible that results of operations, balance sheets or cash flows could be materially and adversely affected in any particular period by unfavorable developments in, or resolution or disposition of, such matters. For those legal proceedings and claims for which the Company believes that it is probable that a reasonably estimable loss may result, the Company records a reserve for the potential loss. For proceedings and claims where the Company believes it is reasonably possible that a loss may result that is materially in excess of amounts accrued for the matter, the Company either discloses an estimate of such possible loss or range of loss or includes a statement that such an estimate cannot be made.

In December 2016, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“U.S. Customs”) issued an audit report concerning the methodology used by the Company to allocate the cost of certain watch styles imported into the U.S. among the component parts of those watches for tariff purposes. The report disputed the reasonableness of the Company’s historical allocation formulas and proposed an alternative methodology that would imply $5.1 million in underpaid duties for all imports that entered the United States during the audit period which extended from August 1, 2011, through July 15, 2016, plus possible penalties and interest. Although the Company believes that U.S. Customs’ alternative duty methodology and estimate were not consistent with the Company’s facts and circumstances and consistently disputed U.S. Customs’ position, the Company previously established reserves for a portion of the alleged underpayment indicated in the audit report. Between February 2017 and January 2021, the Company made numerous submissions to U.S. Customs containing supplemental analyses and information in response to U.S. Customs’ information requests. On May 1, 2023, the statute of limitations lapsed with respect to all entries encompassed by the audit period. As a result, during the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company released the reserves that it had established in respect of those entries.

In addition to the above matters, as of January 31, 2025, the Company is party to legal proceedings and contingencies, the resolution of which is not expected to materially affect its financial condition, future results of operations beyond the amounts accrued, or cash flows.

NOTE 12 – LEASES

The Company leases certain real estate properties, vehicles and equipment in various countries around the world. Leased properties are typically used for retail space, office, warehouse and distribution.

The Company evaluates contractual arrangements at inception to determine if individual agreements are a lease or contain an identifiable lease component. When evaluating contracts to determine appropriate classification and recognition, significant judgment may be necessary to determine, among other criteria, if an embedded leasing arrangement exists, the length of the term, classification as either an operating or financing lease and whether renewal or termination options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are recognized on the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, adjusted for the lease term and lease country, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. Lease assets also include any up front lease payments made and are reduced by lease incentives. The Company’s leases are classified as operating leases with remaining terms of 1 to 11 years, some of which include anoption to extend or renew. If the exercise of an option to extend or renew is determined to be reasonably certain, the associated right-of-use asset and liability reflects the extended period of payments.

Lease expense for operating leases consist of both fixed and variable components. Expenses related to fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and include certain index-based changes in rent, certain non-lease components such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor and other charges included in the lease. The variable portion of lease payments is not included in the Company’s lease liabilities. Short-term leases are leases having a term of 12 months or less at inception. The Company does not record a related lease asset or liability forshort-term leases. The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

The components of lease expense were as follows (in thousands):

The following table discloses supplemental balance sheet information for the Company’s leases (in thousands):

The following table discloses the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate for the Company's leases:

Future minimum lease payments by year as of January 31, 2025 is as follows (in thousands):

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):

As of January 31, 2025, the Company did not have any material operating or finance leases that have been signed but not commenced.

NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES

Income/(loss) before provision/(benefit) for income taxes for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 on a legal entity basis consists of the following (in thousands):

Cash paid for income taxes during fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 was$28.4 million, $28.7 million and $29.0 million respectively.

The provision/(benefit) for income taxes for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 consists of the following components (in thousands):

Significant components of the Company’s deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 are as follows (in thousands):

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had U.S. state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $0.7 million and $4.6 million, respectively, with expiration dates ranging from 1-10 years and, with respect to some foreign jurisdictions, an indefinite carryforward period. Of the foreign net operating losses,$1.8 million is related to the United Kingdom, $1.6 million is related to China and the remaining is related to other foreign countries.

A valuation allowance is required to be established unless management determines it is more likely than not that the Company will ultimately utilize the tax benefit associated with a deferred tax asset. The Company has foreign valuation allowances of $3.7 million, which are primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards.

Management will continue to evaluate the appropriate level of valuation allowance on all deferred tax assets considering such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods and tax and business strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of the deferred tax assets.

The Company elected to account for the tax on Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") as a period cost and therefore has not recorded deferred taxes related to GILTI.

The provision/(benefit) for income taxes for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate due to the following (in thousands):

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2025 was 27.9% and differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to the tax consequences of a foreign currency gain related to an extraordinary intercompany dividend and an increase in valuation allowances against certain foreign losses, partially offset by foreign profits being taxed in lower taxing jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 was 21.8% and differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign profits being taxed in lower taxing jurisdictions, partially offset by cross-border tax effects and U.S. state and local taxes, net of the federal benefit.

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into law by President Biden. Among other things, the IR Act implemented a 1% excise tax on the fair market stock repurchases by covered corporations, a 15% minimum tax based on adjusted financial statement income of certain large corporations, and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. Although the Company is continuing to evaluate the IR Act and its potential impact on future periods, to date, the IR Act has not had a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) has issued Pillar Two model rules implementing a new global minimum tax of 15%, which was intended to be effective on January 1, 2024 While several countries have adopted and enacted changes to their legislation in response to Pillar Two, in January 2025, the President of the United States issued an executive order announcing the United States’ opposition to aspects of these rules. The Company's revenue currently does not meet the minimum requirements that were set by OECD inclusive framework and rules. Although the Company will continue to evaluate and monitor the enactments of Pillar Two, to the extent that Pillar Two becomes applicable, the Company does not expect a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examinations by taxing authorities in many countries, such as Germany, Hong Kong, Switzerland and the United States. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examination for years ended prior to January 31, 2021, with few exceptions.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of gross unrecognized tax benefits (exclusive of interest) for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 are as follows (in thousands):

Included in the balances at January 31, 2025, January 31, 2024 and January 31, 2023 are$0.5 million for each period of unrecognized tax benefits which would impact the Company’s effective tax rate, if recognized. As of January 31, 2025, January 31, 2024, and January 31, 2023, the Company had$0.3 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of accrued interest (net of tax benefit) and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits. Interest (net of tax benefit) and penalties accrued in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 were immaterial. The Company does not anticipate any significant increases or decreases to unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months.

At January 31, 2025, the Company hadno deferred tax liability for substantially all of the undistributed foreign earnings of approximately$234.2 million because the Company intends to permanently reinvest such earnings in its foreign operations. It is not practicable to estimate the tax liability related to a future distribution of these permanently reinvested foreign earnings.

NOTE 14 – TREASURY STOCK

On November 23, 2021, the Board approved a share repurchase program under which the Company was authorized to purchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding common stock through November 23, 2024, depending on market conditions, share price and other factors. On December 5, 2024, the Board approved a new share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to purchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding common stock through December 5, 2027, depending on market conditions, share price and other factors. These repurchases may be made through open market purchases, repurchase plans, block trades or otherwise.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the Company repurchased a total of 120,000 shares of its common stock under the November 23, 2021 share repurchase program at a total cost of $2.6 million, or an average of$21.90 per share. There wereno shares repurchased under the December 5, 2024 share repurchase program during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 111,722 shares of its common stock under the November 23, 2021 share repurchase program at a total cost of $3.1 million, or an average of $27.89 pershare. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023, the

Company repurchased a total of 898,956 shares of its common stock under the March 25, 2021 share repurchase program and November 23, 2021 share repurchase program at a total cost of $31.4 million, or an average of $34.94 per share.

At January 31, 2025, the November 23, 2021 repurchase plan had expired and $50.0 million remains available for purchase under the Company's December 5, 2024 repurchase program.

There were 42,388,22,034 and 28,405 shares of common stock repurchased during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as a result of the surrender of shares in connection with the vesting of restricted stock awards or stock options. At the election of an employee, shares having an aggregate value on the vesting date equal to the employee’s withholding tax obligation may be surrendered to the Company.

NOTE 15 – ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The accumulated balances at January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, related to each component of accumulated other comprehensive income are as follows (in thousands):

Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) to operating income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $46,000, an immaterial amount and $2.1 million, respectively.

NOTE 16 – REVENUE

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table presents the Company’s net sales disaggregated by customer type. Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from net sales (in thousands).

The Company’s revenue from contracts with customers is recognized at a point in time. The Company’s net sales disaggregated by geography are based on the location of the Company’s customer (see Note 19 Segment and Geographic Information).

Wholesale Revenue

The Company’s wholesale revenue consists primarily of revenues from independent distributors, department stores, chain stores, independent jewelry stores and third-party e-commerce retailers. The Company recognizes and records its revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, and control is transferred to the customer. Transfer of control passes to wholesale customers upon shipment or upon receipt depending on the agreement with the customer and shipping terms. Wholesale revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company ultimately expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Wholesale revenue is included entirely within the Watch and Accessory Brands segment (see Note 19 – Segment and Geographic Information), consistent with how management makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources and performance measurement.

Direct to Consumer Revenue

The Company’s direct to consumer revenue primarily consists of revenues from the Company’s outlet stores, the Company’s owned e-commerce websites and concession stores, and consumer repairs. The Company recognizes and records its revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, and control is transferred to the customer. Control passes to outlet store customers at the time of sale and to substantially all e-commerce customers upon shipment. Direct to Consumer revenue is included in either the Watch and Accessory Brands Segment or Company Stores Segment based on how the Company makes decisions about the allocation of resources and performance measurement. Revenue derived from outlet stores and related e-commerce is included within the Company Stores Segment. Other Direct to Consumer revenue (i.e., revenue derived from other Company-owned e-commerce websites, concession stores and consumer repairs) is included within the Watch and Accessory Brands segment. (See Note 19 – Segment and Geographic Information).

After-sales service

All watches sold by the Company come with limited warranties covering the movement against defects in materials and workmanship.

The Company’s after-sales service revenues consists of out of warranty service provided to customers and authorized third party repair centers, and sale of watch parts. The Company recognizes and records its revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied and control is transferred to the customer. After-sales service revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company ultimately expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Revenue from after sales service, including consumer repairs, is included entirely within the Watch and Accessory Brands segment, consistent with how management makes decisions about the allocation of resources and performance measurement.

NOTE 17 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Under the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated as of June 22, 2023 (the “Plan”), the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Board of Directors, which consists of three of the Company’s non-employee directors, has the authority to grant participants incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and stock awards, for up to 12,000,000 shares of common stock.

Stock Options:

Stock options granted to participants under the Plan generally become exercisable after three years and remain exercisable until the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. All stock options granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

The table below presents the weighted average assumptions used with the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for the calculation of the fair value of stock options granted during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2023. There were no stock options granted during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024.

The fair value of the stock options, less expected forfeitures, is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting term. Total compensation expense for stock option grants recognized during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was$0.9 million, $2.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively. As of January 31, 2025, there was $0.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.2 years. Total cash consideration received for stock option exercises during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was$0.1 million, $0.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The shortfall tax expense on these exercises for fiscal 2025 was approximately$0.3 million.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option plan as of January 31, 2025 and changes during each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended January 31, 2025:

The table below presents information related to stock option activity for the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

Non-vested Stock Options

A summary of the Company’s non-vested stock options at January 31, 2025 and changes during fiscal 2025 are presented below:

Stock Awards:

Under the Plan, the Company can also grant stock awards to employees and directors. For fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, compensation expense for stock awards was$3.2 million, $5.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively. As of January 31, 2025, there was $3.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock awards. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

Transactions for stock awards under the Plan since fiscal 2022 are summarized as follows:

Stock awards granted by the Company can be classified as either time-based stock awards or performance-based stock awards. Time-based stock awards vest over time in the number of shares established at grant date, subject to continued employment. Performance-based stock awards vest over time subject both to continued employment and to the achievement of corporate financial performance goals. Upon the vesting of a stock award, shares are issued from the pool of authorized shares. The number of shares to be issued related to the outstanding performance-based stock awards can vary from 0% to 200% of the target number of underlying stock award units, established at grant date, depending on the particular stock awards and the extent of the achievement of the predetermined financial goals. The total fair value of stock award units that vested during fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 was$3.9 million, $2.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively. There were 42,388,22,034 and 28,405 shares of common stock of the Company tendered by the employee for the payment of the employee’s withholding tax obligation totaling$1.2 million, $0.6 million and $1.1 million during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Unvested stock award units had a total fair value of$19.3 million, $14.7 million and $8.5 million, for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The shortfall tax expense on the vested stock awards for fiscal 2025 was an immaterial amount. The number of shares issued related to the remaining stock awards are established at grant date.

NOTE 18 – PENSION AND RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

Defined Contribution Plans

401(k) Savings Plan

All employees in the United States are eligible to participate in the Company’s Employee Savings and Investment Plan (“401(k) Plan”), a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement savings plan. Prior to fiscal year 2024, the Company matched 50% of each 1% contributed by the employee up to a maximum of 6% of pay (totaling a Company maximum match of 3%), subject to the contribution limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. Effective fiscal year 2024, the Company matches 50% of each 1% contributed by the employee up to a maximum of 8% of pay (totaling a Company maximum match of 4%). Employees vest in the Company match after three years of service. In fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company contributed$1.5 million, $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in cash to the 401(k) Plan.

Other Defined Contribution Plans

The Company sponsors defined contribution benefit plans for certain of its employees located outside of the United States. Company contributions and expenses of administering the plans were $1.0 million, $1.2 million and $1.2 million in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company maintains a defined contribution deferred compensation plan (also known as a supplemental employee retirement plan or SERP). The SERP provides eligible executives with supplemental retirement benefits in addition to amounts received under the Company’s other retirement plans. The Company makes a matching contribution, up to either 5% or 10% of the executive’s salary, which vests in equal annual installments over five years. Twenty percent of the Company’s matching contribution is in the form of rights to the Company’s common stock. During fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded expenses related to the SERP of$0.6 million, $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Defined Benefit Plan

The Company sponsors a defined benefit plan in Switzerland. The plan covers certain international employees and is based on years of service and compensation on a career-average pay basis.

The components of the net periodic pension costs for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:

The other components of the net periodic pension costs, including interest cost, expected return on assets, actuarial gain recognized due to partial settlement and the amortization of the prior service costs, are all included in other income, net in fiscal 2025, fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

During fiscal 2024 there was a plan amendment resulting in a new conversion rate at normal retirement age for retirements in 2025 or later. This plan amendment resulted in a prior service credit of $0.1 million and will be amortized over 5.4 years.

During fiscal 2025 and 2023, the settlements, including lump sum payments, exceeded the sum of the current service cost and interest cost components. Because only a portion of the benefit obligation is settled, the Company recognized in fiscal 2025 and 2023 a pro rata portion of the unamortized net gain in the net periodic pension cost as a reduction of other components of the net periodic pension cost.

The estimated prior service cost that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic pension cost in the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 is $0.1 million.

A reconciliation of the change in benefit obligation, the change in plan assets and the net amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are shown below (based on a January 31 measurement date):

Investment Policy:

It is the objective of the plan sponsor to maintain an adequate level of diversification to balance market risk, to prudently invest to preserve capital and to provide sufficient liquidity while maximizing earnings for near-term payments of benefits accrued under the plan and to pay plan administrative expenses. The assumption used for the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based on the long-term expected returns for each investment category currently in the portfolio. Historical return trends for the various asset classes in the class portfolio are combined with current and anticipated future market conditions to estimate the rate of return for each class. These rates are then adjusted for anticipated future inflation to determine estimated nominal rates of return for each class.

The assets are classified as a Level 3 asset within the fair value hierarchy and consist of an investment in pooled assets and include separate employee accounts that are invested in equity securities, debt securities and real estate. The values of the separate accounts invested are based on values provided by the administrator of the funds that cannot be readily derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

The weighted average assumptions that were used to determine the Company’s benefit obligations as of the measurement date (January 31) were as follows:

The discount rates used are based on high quality AAA- and AA-rated corporate bonds with durations corresponding to the expected durations of the benefit obligations and service time.

The weighted average assumptions that were used to determine the Company’s net periodic pension cost were as follows:

The overall expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is a weighted average expectation based on the targeted portfolio composition. Historical experience and current benchmarks are considered to arrive at expected long-term rates of return in each asset category.

The Company expects the following benefit payments to be paid out for the fiscal years indicated. The expected benefit payments are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company’s benefit obligation at January 31, 2025 and include estimated future employee service. The Company does not expect any plan assets to be returned to it during the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026. Payments from the pension plan are made from the plan assets.

During fiscal 2026, the Company expects to contribute $1.3 million to its Swiss defined benefit plan.

NOTE 19 – SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

The Company follows accounting guidance related to disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information. This guidance requires disclosure of segment data based on how management makes decisions about allocating resources to segments and measuring their performance. In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07 “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” which requires expanded disclosures about an entity’s reportable segments, including more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how an entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The Company adopted this new guidance for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, and on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. This ASU does not change how an entity identifies its operating segments.

The Company conducts its business intwo operating segments: Watch and Accessory Brands and Company Stores. The Company’s Watch and Accessory Brands segment includes the designing, manufacturing and distribution of watches and, to a lesser extent, jewelry and other accessories, of owned and licensed brands, in addition to revenue generated from after-sales service activities and shipping. The Company Stores segment includes the Company’s retail outlet business. The Chief Executive Officer of the Company is the CODM and regularly reviews operating results for each of thetwo operating segments to assess performance and makes operating decisions about the allocation of the Company’s resources. The Company’s CODM evaluates operating results based on gross profit, defined as net sales less cost of sales, and operating income, defined as gross profit less selling, general and administrative expenses. The CODM uses gross profit and operating income in the budgeting and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-current forecast and prior forecast-to-current forecast variances for gross profit and operating income for evaluating performance of the segments and making decisions about allocating capital and other resources to each segment.

The Company divides its business intotwo major geographic locations: United States operations, and International, which includes the results of all non-U.S. Company operations. The allocation of geographic revenue is based upon the location of the customer. The Company’s International operations in Europe, the Americas (excluding the United States), Asia and the Middle East accounted for 31.0%,9.9%, 8.9% and 7.6%, respectively, of the Company’s total net sales for fiscal 2025. For fiscal 2024, the Company’s International operations in Europe, the Americas (excluding the United States), Asia and the Middle East accounted for 30.9%,9.4%,8.1% and 7.9%, respectively, of the Company’s total net sales. For fiscal 2023, the Company’s International operations in Europe, the Americas

(excludingthe United States), Asia and the Middle East accounted for 33.2%,7.9%,7.6% and 6.4%, respectively, of the Company’s total net sales. A vast majority of the Company’s tangible International assets are owned by the Company’s Swiss and Hong Kong subsidiaries.
