COVID-19 Pandemic The outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") was declared a global pandemic by theWorld Health Organization inMarch 2020 . The spread of COVID-19 has caused public health officials to impose restrictions and to recommend precautions to mitigate the spread of the virus, especially when congregating in heavily populated areas, such as malls and lifestyle centers. We have taken actions to temporarily close retail locations and to reduce operating hours, and we continue to monitor the situation and work closely with local authorities to prioritize the safety of our people and guests. InFebruary 2020 , we temporarily closed all of our retail locations in Mainland China. InMarch 2020 , we temporarily closed all of our retail locations inNorth America ,Europe , and certain countries inAsia Pacific . The stores in Mainland China reopened during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and stores in other markets began reopening in accordance with local government and public health authority guidelines during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , 492 of our company-operated stores were open. Our distribution centers inColumbus, Ohio andSumner, Washington were temporarily closed for one and two weeks, respectively, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 due to COVID-19. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , all of our distribution centers were open. 24

Our retail locations and distribution centers are operating with restrictive and precautionary measures in place such as reduced operating hours, physical distancing, enhanced cleaning and sanitation, and limited occupancy levels. This pandemic has also impacted the operations of our third party logistics providers and our manufacturing and supply partners, including through the closure or reduced capacity of facilities, and operational changes to accommodate physical distancing. As the pandemic continues, we may face further disruptions or increased operational and logistics costs throughout our supply chain. There is significant uncertainty regarding the extent and duration of the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our store operations, the demand for our products, and on our supply chain. It had a material adverse impact on our results of operations for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020, and we expect it to continue to impact our results of operations, financial position, and liquidity. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat its impact. We remain confident in the long-term growth opportunities and our Power of Three growth plan and believe that we have sufficient cash and cash equivalents, and available capacity under our revolving credit facilities, to meet our liquidity needs. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , we had cash and cash equivalents of$523.0 million and the capacity under our committed revolving credit facilities was$697.7 million . Financial Highlights For the second quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019: •Net revenue increased 2% to$902.9 million . On a constant dollar basis, net revenue increased 3%. •Company-operated stores net revenue decreased 51% to$287.2 million . •Direct to consumer net revenue increased 155% to$554.3 million , or increased 157% on a constant dollar basis. We held an online warehouse sale during the second quarter of fiscal 2020 which generated net revenue of$43.3 million . •Gross profit increased 1% to$489.5 million . •Gross margin decreased 80 basis points to 54.2%. •Acquisition-related expenses of$11.5 million were recognized. •Income from operations decreased 26% to$124.4 million . •Operating margin decreased 520 basis points to 13.8%. •Income tax expense decreased 17% to$37.3 million . Our effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 30.0% compared to 26.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2019. •Diluted earnings per share were$0.66 compared to$0.96 in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. This includes$9.5 million of after-tax costs related to the MIRROR acquisition, which reduced diluted earnings per share by$0.08 for the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As the temporary store closures from COVID-19 have resulted in a significant number of stores being removed from our comparable store base, total comparable sales and comparable store sales are not currently representative of the underlying trends of our business. We do not believe these metrics are currently useful to investors in understanding performance, therefore we have not included these metrics in our discussion and analysis of results of operations. Refer to the non-GAAP reconciliation tables contained in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for reconciliations between constant dollar changes in net revenue and direct to consumer net revenue and the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. 25

Results of Operations Second Quarter Results The following table summarizes key components of our results of operations for the quarters endedAugust 2, 2020 andAugust 4, 2019 . The percentages are presented as a percentage of net revenue. Quarter Ended August 2, 2020 August 4, 2019 August 2, 2020 August 4, 2019 (In thousands) (Percentages) Net revenue$ 902,942 $ 883,352 100.0 % 100.0 % Cost of goods sold 413,441 397,556 45.8 45.0 Gross profit 489,501 485,796 54.2 55.0 Selling, general and administrative expenses 352,904 317,814 39.1

On a constant dollar basis, assuming the average exchange rates for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 remained constant with the average exchange rates for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, net revenue increased$26.6 million , or 3%. The increase in net revenue was primarily due to increased direct to consumer net revenue. This was partially offset by a decrease in company-operated store revenue, as well as a decrease in net revenue from our other channels driven by temporary retail location closures as well as reduced operating hours and limited guest occupancy levels as a result of COVID-19. Net revenue on a segment basis for the quarters endedAugust 2, 2020 andAugust 4, 2019 is summarized below. The percentages are presented as a percentage of total net revenue. Quarter Ended August 2, 2020 August 4, 2019 August 2, 2020 August 4, 2019 (In thousands) (Percentages) Company-operated stores$ 287,201 $ 583,756 31.8 % 66.1 % Direct to consumer 554,302 217,636 61.4 24.6 Other 61,439 81,960 6.8 9.3 Net revenue$ 902,942 $ 883,352 100.0 % 100.0 % Company-Operated Stores. Net revenue from our company-operated stores segment decreased$296.6 million , or 51%, to$287.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$583.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in net revenue from our company-operated stores segment was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19, including temporary store closures, reduced operating hours, and occupancy restrictions. Direct to Consumer. Net revenue from our direct to consumer segment increased$336.7 million , or 155%, to$554.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$217.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Direct to consumer net revenue increased 157% on a constant dollar basis. The increase in net revenue from our direct to consumer segment was primarily a result of increased website traffic and improved conversion rates. This was partially offset by a decrease in dollar value per transaction. The shift in the way guests are shopping continued in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 as a result of COVID-19, with more guests shopping online instead of in-store. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we held an online warehouse sale inthe United States andCanada which generated net revenue of$43.3 million . We did not hold any warehouse sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2019. 26

Other. Net revenue from our other segment decreased$20.5 million , or 25%, to$61.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$82.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. This decrease was primarily the result of COVID-19, including temporary location closures, reduced operating hours, and occupancy restrictions. Gross Profit Gross profit increased$3.7 million , or less than 1%, to$489.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$485.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue, or gross margin, decreased 80 basis points to 54.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 55.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in gross margin was primarily the result of: •an increase in costs as a percentage of revenue related to our distribution centers of 130 basis points; and •an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates of 20 basis points. This was partially offset by a decrease in costs related to our product departments as a percentage of revenue of 40 basis points, and a decrease in depreciation and occupancy costs as a percentage of revenue of 30 basis points. Product margin was consistent with the second quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to lower product costs and product mix, offset by higher markdowns. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased$35.1 million , or 11%, to$352.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$317.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to: •an increase in costs related to our operating channels of$38.7 million , comprised of: -an increase in variable costs of$36.9 million primarily due to an increase in distribution costs as a result of increased direct to consumer net revenue; -an increase in other costs of$19.2 million primarily due to increased digital marketing expenses; and -a decrease in employee costs of$17.4 million primarily due to lower incentive compensation expenses in our company-operated store and other channels; •an increase in head office costs of$14.3 million , comprised of: -an increase of$15.8 million primarily due to increases in information technology costs, professional fees, and depreciation; and -a decrease in employee costs of$1.5 million primarily due to decreased travel and decreased incentive compensation expense, partially offset by increased salaries and wages expense as a result of headcount growth, and stock-based compensation expense; and • an increase in net foreign exchange and derivative revaluation losses of$3.0 million . The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was partially offset by$20.9 million of government payroll subsidies which were recognized during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As a percentage of net revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 310 basis points, to 39.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 36.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Amortization of intangible assets Amortization of intangible assets was$0.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. This was primarily the result of the recognition of intangible assets of$85.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 as a result of our acquisition of MIRROR. We did not recognize an expense for the amortization of intangible assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Acquisition-related expenses As a result of our acquisition of MIRROR in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized acquisition-related expenses of$11.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. This included transaction and integration related costs of$7.2 million for advisory and professional services, and integration costs subsequent to the acquisition. This also included acquisition-related compensation of$5.0 million for the partial acceleration of vesting of certain options and deferred 27

consideration due to certain continuing MIRROR employees. Acquisition-related expenses were partially offset by a$0.8 million gain recognized on our existing investment. We did not have acquisition-related expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Please refer to Note 3 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this report for further information. Income from Operations Income from operations decreased$43.6 million , or 26%, to$124.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$168.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Operating margin decreased 520 basis points to 13.8% compared to 19.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. On a segment basis, we determine income from operations without taking into account our general corporate expenses. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we reviewed our segment and general corporate expenses and determined certain costs that are more appropriately classified in different categories. Accordingly, comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the financial presentation adopted for the current year. Segmented income (loss) from operations for the quarters endedAugust 2, 2020 andAugust 4, 2019 is summarized below. The percentages are presented as a percentage of net revenue of the respective operating segments.

The decrease was primarily the result of decreased gross profit of$209.3 million which was primarily due to lower net revenue as a result of the impact of COVID-19 restrictions, and lower gross margin, which was primarily due to deleverage on occupancy and depreciation costs as a result of lower net revenue. This was partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily due to decreased store operating expenses including lower incentive compensation, credit card fees, packaging costs, and distribution costs primarily as a result of lower net revenue, and due to the recognition of government payroll subsidies and lower community costs. Income from operations as a percentage of company-operated stores net revenue decreased primarily due to lower gross margin and deleverage on selling, general and administrative expenses. Direct to Consumer. Income from operations from our direct to consumer segment increased$151.0 million , or 174%, to$237.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$86.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase was primarily the result of increased gross profit of$222.2 million which was primarily due to increased net revenue and higher gross margin. This was partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to higher variable costs including distribution costs, credit card fees, and packaging as a result of higher net revenue, as well as higher digital marketing expenses. Income from operations as a percentage of direct to consumer net revenue increased 310 basis points primarily due to leverage on selling, general and administrative expenses and higher gross margin. Other. Income from operations from our other channels decreased$13.8 million , or 84%, to$2.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$16.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

General Corporate Expense. General corporate expense increased$8.9 million , or 10%, to$98.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$89.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019. This increase was primarily due to increases in depreciation, information technology costs, and professional fees, and an increase in net foreign exchange and derivative revaluation losses of$3.0 million . The increase in general corporate expense was partially offset by a decrease in incentive compensation and the recognition of government payroll subsidies. Other Income (Expense), Net Other income, net decreased$2.2 million , or 119%, to an expense of$0.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from income of$1.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

Net Income Net income decreased$38.2 million , or 31%, to$86.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from$125.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

The decrease in net revenue from our company-operated stores segment was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19. All of our stores inNorth America ,Europe , and certain countries inAsia Pacific were temporarily closed for a significant portion of the first two quarters of fiscal 2020. Since re-opening our company-operated store net revenues have been impacted by COVID-19 restrictions including reduced operating hours and occupancy limits. Direct to Consumer. Net revenue from our direct to consumer segment increased$478.9 million , or 112%, to$906.3 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$427.5 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. Direct to consumer net revenue increased 114% on a constant dollar basis. The increase in net revenue from our direct to consumer segment was primarily a result of increased website traffic and improved conversion rates. This was partially offset by a decrease in dollar value per transaction. There was a shift in the way guests shopped in the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 as a result of COVID-19, with more guests shopping online instead of in-store. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we held an online warehouse sale inthe United States andCanada which generated net revenue of$43.3 million .

The decrease in gross margin was primarily the result of: •an increase in occupancy and depreciation costs as a percentage of revenue of 120 basis points; •an increase in costs as a percentage of revenue related to our distribution centers of 110 basis points; and •an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates of 20 basis points. This was partially offset by an increase in product margin of 80 basis points primarily due to lower product costs, and a favorable mix of higher margin product, partially offset by higher markdowns, and a decrease in costs related to our product departments as a percentage of revenue of 20 basis points. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased$41.8 million , or 7%, to$652.5 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$610.7 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019.

We did not recognize an expense for the amortization intangible assets in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. Acquisition-related expenses As a result of our acquisition of MIRROR in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized acquisition-related expenses of$13.5 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2020. This included transaction and integration related costs of$9.2 million for advisory and professional services, and integration costs subsequent to the acquisition. This also included acquisition-related compensation of$5.0 million for the partial acceleration of vesting of certain options and deferred consideration to certain continuing MIRROR employees. Acquisition-related expenses were partially offset by a$0.8 million gain recognized on our existing investment. We did not have acquisition-related expenses in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. Please refer to Note 3 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this report for further information. Income from Operations Income from operations decreased$139.6 million , or 47%, to$157.2 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$296.8 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. Operating margin decreased 770 basis points to 10.1% compared to 17.8% in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. On a segment basis, we determine income from operations without taking into account our general corporate expenses. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we reviewed our segment and general corporate expenses and determined certain costs that are more appropriately classified in different categories. Accordingly, comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the financial presentation adopted for the current year. 31

Income from operations from our company-operated stores segment decrease$310.7 million , or 113%, to a loss of$35.4 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from income of$275.2 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The decrease was primarily the result of decreased gross profit of$386.8 million which was primarily due to lower net revenue as a result of the impact of COVID-19 restrictions, and lower gross margin, which was primarily due to deleverage on occupancy and depreciation costs as a result of lower net revenue. This was partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily due to decreased store operating expenses including lower incentive compensation, credit card fees, packaging costs, and distribution costs primarily as a result of lower net revenue, as well as decreases in security and repairs and maintenance costs, and due to the recognition of government payroll subsidies. Income from operations as a percentage of company-operated stores net revenue decreased, primarily due to lower gross margin and deleverage on selling, general and administrative expenses. Direct to Consumer. Income from operations from our direct to consumer segment increased$228.6 million , or 138%, to$394.5 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$166.0 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The increase was primarily the result of increased gross profit of$325.3 million which was primarily due to increased net revenue and higher gross margin. This was partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to higher variable costs including distribution costs and credit card fees as a result of higher net revenue, as well as higher digital marketing expenses and employee costs. Income from operations as a percentage of direct to consumer net revenue increased 470 basis points, primarily due to leverage on selling, general and administrative expenses and higher gross margin. Other. Income from operations from our other channels decreased$26.7 million , or 92%, to$2.3 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$29.0 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The decrease was primarily the result of decreased gross profit of$22.2 million which was primarily due to decreased net revenue, and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to an increase in marketing costs, partially offset by decreased operating expenses including lower incentive compensation, credit card fees, and packaging costs primarily as a result of lower net revenue. Income from operations as a percentage of other net revenue decreased primarily due to deleverage on selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by an increase in gross margin. General Corporate Expense. General corporate expense increased$16.6 million , or 10%, to$190.0 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$173.4 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. This increase was primarily due to increases in information technology costs, depreciation, professional fees, and brand and community costs, and an increase in net foreign exchange and derivative revaluation losses of$1.8 million . The increase in general corporate expense was partially offset by a decrease in incentive compensation and the recognition of government payroll subsidies. Other Income (Expense), Net Other income, net decreased$3.4 million , or 80%, to$0.8 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$4.2 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in net interest income. Income Tax Expense Income tax expense decreased$36.9 million , or 46%, to$42.6 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$79.4 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The effective tax rate for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 was 26.9% compared to 26.4% for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. 32
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
The increase in the effective tax rate was due to certain non-deductible expenses related to the MIRROR acquisition which increased the effective tax rate by 90 basis points and due to new regulations which resulted in additional foreign tax credits being recognized in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. This was partially offset by an increase in tax deductions related to stock-based compensation. Net Income Net income decreased$106.2 million , or 48%, to$115.4 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$221.6 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. This was primarily due to a decrease in gross profit of$83.6 million , an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of$41.8 million , acquisition-related expenses of$13.5 million , amortization of intangible assets of$0.7 million , and a decrease in other income (expense), net of$3.4 million , partially offset by a decrease in income tax expense of$36.9 million . Comparable Store Sales and Total Comparable Sales We separately track comparable store sales, which reflect net revenue from company-operated stores that have been open, or open after being significantly expanded, for at least 12 full fiscal months. Net revenue from a store is included in comparable store sales beginning with the first fiscal month for which the store has a full fiscal month of sales in the prior year. Comparable store sales exclude sales from new stores that have not been open for at least 12 full fiscal months, from stores which have not been in their significantly expanded space for at least 12 full fiscal months, and from stores which have been temporarily relocated for renovations or temporarily closed for at least 30 days. Comparable store sales also exclude sales from direct to consumer and other segments, as well as sales from company-operated stores that we have closed. Total comparable sales combines comparable store sales and direct to consumer sales. We are evolving towards an omni-channel approach to support the shopping behavior of our guests. This involves country and region specific websites, mobile apps, including mobile apps on in-store devices that allow demand to be fulfilled via our distribution centers, social media, product notification emails, and online order fulfillment through stores. In fiscal years with 53 weeks, the 53rd week of net revenue is excluded from the calculation of comparable sales. In the year following a 53 week year, the prior year period is shifted by one week to compare similar calendar weeks. The comparable sales measures we report may not be equivalent to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We typically use comparable store sales to assess the performance of our existing stores as it allows us to monitor the performance of our business without the impact of recently opened or expanded stores. We typically use total comparable sales to evaluate the performance of our business from an omni-channel perspective. We therefore typically believe that investors would similarly find these metrics useful in assessing the performance of our business. However, as the temporary store closures from COVID-19 have resulted in a significant number of stores being removed from our comparable store base, we believe total comparable sales and comparable store sales are not currently representative of the underlying trends of our business. We do not believe these metrics are currently useful to investors in understanding performance, therefore we have not included these metrics in our discussion and analysis of results of operations. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Constant dollar changes in net revenue and direct to consumer net revenue are non-GAAP financial measures. A constant dollar basis assumes the average foreign exchange rates for the period remained constant with the average foreign exchange rates for the same period of the prior year. We provide constant dollar changes in our results to help investors understand the underlying growth rate of net revenue excluding the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or with greater prominence to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures follows, which includes more detail on the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to each non-GAAP financial measure, and the related reconciliations between these financial measures. 33

Constant dollar changes in net revenue and direct to consumer net revenue The below changes in net revenue show the change compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Quarter Ended August 2, 2020 Direct to Consumer Net Revenue Net Revenue (In thousands) (Percentages) (Percentages) Change$ 19,590 2 % 155 % Adjustments due to foreign exchange rate changes 6,976 1 2 Change in constant dollars$ 26,566 3 % 157 % Two Quarters Ended August 2, 2020 Direct to Consumer Net Revenue Net Revenue (In thousands) (Percentages) (Percentages) Change$ (110,763) (7) % 112 % Adjustments due to foreign exchange rate changes 14,650 1 2 % Change in constant dollars$ (96,113) (6) % 114 % Seasonality Our business is affected by the general seasonal trends common to the retail apparel industry. Our annual net revenue is weighted more heavily toward our fourth fiscal quarter, reflecting our historical strength in sales during the holiday season, while our operating expenses are more equally distributed throughout the year. As a result, a substantial portion of our operating profits are generated in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year. For example, we generated approximately 47% of our full year operating profit during each of the fourth quarters of fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our primary sources of liquidity are our current balances of cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, and capacity under our revolving credit facilities. Our primary cash needs are capital expenditures for opening new stores and remodeling or relocating existing stores, making information technology system investments and enhancements, funding working capital requirements, and making other strategic investments both inNorth America and internationally. We may also use cash to repurchase shares of our common stock. Cash and cash equivalents in excess of our needs are held in interest bearing accounts with financial institutions, as well as in money market funds, treasury bills, and term deposits. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , our working capital, excluding cash and cash equivalents, was$203.4 million , our cash and cash equivalents were$523.0 million , and our capacity under our committed revolving credit facilities was$697.7 million . The following table summarizes our net cash flows provided by and used in operating, investing, and financing activities for the periods indicated: Two Quarters Ended August 2, 2020 August 4, 2019 (In thousands)

Operating Activities Cash flows provided by operating activities consist primarily of net income adjusted for certain items including depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and the effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash provided by operating activities increased$10.0 million , to$60.1 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 compared to$50.0 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019, primarily as a result of the following: •an increase of$110.6 million in changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily due to the following: -an increase of$122.8 million related to income taxes, primarily due to the deferral of Canadian income tax payments to the third quarter of fiscal 2020 as well as payments for withholding taxes on repatriated foreign earnings in the first quarter of fiscal 2019; -an increase of$50.5 million related to other accrued liabilities, primarily due to increases in accrued duty, freight, and other operating expenses as well as an increase in the sales return allowance as a result of COVID-19 reducing in-period returns; and -an increase of$20.2 million related to accounts payable. The increase in changes in operating assets and liabilities was partially offset by the following: -a decrease of$41.6 million related to accrued compensation related expenses; -a decrease of$31.3 million related to prepaid expenses and other current and non-current assets, primarily due to government payroll subsidy receivables related to COVID-19; and -a decrease of$12.4 million related to inventories, primarily due to lower than expected net revenue as a result of temporary store closures and other COVID-19 restrictions. •an increase of$5.6 million from adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities other than changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily related to an increase in depreciation and amortization, partially offset by a decrease in the settlement of derivatives not designated in a hedging relationship. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was partially offset by a decrease of$106.2 million in net income, primarily due temporary retail location closures as well as reduced operating hours and limited guest occupancy levels as a result of COVID-19. Investing Activities Cash flows used in investing activities relate to the acquisition of MIRROR, capital expenditures, the settlement of net investment hedges, and other investing activities. Capital expenditures primarily relate to opening new company-operated stores, remodeling or relocating certain stores, and ongoing store refurbishment. We also had capital expenditures related to information technology and business systems, related to corporate buildings, and for opening retail locations other than company-operated stores. Cash used in investing activities increased$413.4 million to$545.3 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 from$132.0 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The increase was primarily the result of the acquisition of MIRROR, partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures for our company-operated stores. Financing Activities Cash flows used in financing activities consist primarily of cash used to repurchase shares of our common stock, certain cash flows related to stock-based compensation, and other financing activities. Cash used in financing activities decreased$88.8 million to$82.2 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 compared to$171.0 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in stock repurchases. Cash used in financing activities for the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 included$63.7 million to repurchase 0.4 million shares of our common stock compared to$165.1 million to repurchase 1.0 million shares for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. During the first two quarters of fiscal 2019, 1.0 million shares were repurchased in a private transaction. We did not purchase any shares in a private transaction during the first two quarters of fiscal 2020. The other common stock was repurchased in the open market at prevailing market prices, including under plans complying with the provisions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with the timing and actual number of shares repurchased depending upon market conditions, eligibility to trade, and other factors. The share repurchase program was temporarily paused as ofMarch 31, 2020 . 35

We believe the cash and cash equivalent balances, cash flows from operations, and borrowings available under the revolving credit facilities are adequate to meet our liquidity needs and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. The cash from operations may be negatively impacted by a decrease in demand for our products, the continuing impact of COVID-19, as well as the other factors described in Item 1 of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, discretionary capital improvements may be made with respect to the stores, distribution facilities, headquarters, or systems. Strategic investments or repurchase of shares under an approved stock repurchase program may be made, which we would expect to fund through the use of cash, issuance of debt or equity securities or other external financing sources to the extent we were unable to fund such capital expenditures out of our cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from operations. Revolving Credit FacilitiesNorth America revolving credit facility OnDecember 15, 2016 , we entered into a credit agreement for$150.0 million under a committed and unsecured five-year revolving credit facility.Bank of America, N.A ., is administrative agent andHSBC Bank Canada is the syndication agent and letter of credit issuer, and the lenders party thereto. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be made, inU.S. Dollars, Euros, Canadian Dollars, and in other currencies, subject to the approval of the administrative agent and the lenders. Up to$35.0 million of the revolving credit facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit and up to$25.0 million is available for the issuance of swing line loans. Commitments under the revolving credit facility may be increased by up to$200.0 million , subject to certain conditions, including the approval of the lenders. Borrowings under the agreement may be prepaid and commitments may be reduced or terminated without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs). The principal amount outstanding under the credit agreement, if any, will be due and payable in full onDecember 15, 2021 , subject to provisions that permit us to request a limited number of one year extensions annually. Borrowings made under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (a) a rate based on the rates applicable for deposits on the interbank market forU.S. Dollars or the applicable currency in which the borrowings are made ("LIBOR") or (b) an alternate base rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined by reference to a pricing grid, based on the ratio of indebtedness to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization, and rent ("EBITDAR") and ranges between 1.00%-1.75% for LIBOR loans and 0.00%-0.75% for alternate base rate loans. Additionally, a commitment fee of between 0.125%-0.200%, also determined by reference to the pricing grid, is payable on the average daily unused amounts under the revolving credit facility. The credit agreement contains negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit the ability of our subsidiaries to incur indebtedness, incur liens, undergo fundamental changes, make dispositions of all or substantially all of their assets, alter their businesses and enter into agreements limiting subsidiary dividends and distributions. We are also required to maintain a consolidated rent-adjusted leverage ratio of not greater than 3.50:1.00 and we are not permitted to allow the ratio of consolidated EBITDAR to consolidated interest charges (plus rent) to be less than 2.00:1.00. The credit agreement also contains certain customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants, and events of default (including, among others, an event of default upon the occurrence of a change of control). If an event of default occurs, the credit agreement may be terminated and the maturity of any outstanding amounts may be accelerated. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , we were in compliance with the covenants of the credit facility. OnJune 6, 2018 , we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the credit agreement. The Amendment amended the credit agreement to provide for (i) an increase in the aggregate commitments under the unsecured five-year revolving credit facility to$400.0 million , with an increase of the sub-limits for the issuance of letters of credit and extensions of swing line loans to$50.0 million for each, (ii) an increase in the option, subject to certain conditions as set forth in the credit agreement, to request increases in commitments under the revolving facility from$400.0 million to$600.0 million and (iii) an extension in the maturity of the revolving facility fromDecember 15, 2021 toJune 6, 2023 . In addition, the Amendment decreased the applicable margins for LIBOR loans from 1.00%-1.75% to 1.00%-1.50% and for alternate base rate loans from 0.00%-0.75% to 0.00%-0.50%, reduced the commitment fee on average daily unused amounts under the revolving facility from 0.125%-0.200% to 0.10%-0.20%, and reduced fees for unused letters of credit from 1.00%-1.75% to 1.00%-1.50%. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , aside from letters of credit of$2.3 million , we had no other borrowings outstanding under this credit facility. 36

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We enter into standby letters of credit to secure certain of our obligations, including leases, taxes, and duties. As ofAugust 2, 2020 , letters of credit and letters of guarantee totaling$2.3 million had been issued. We have not entered into any transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party and under which we have (i) any obligation under a guarantee, (ii) any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity, (iii) any obligation under derivative instruments that are indexed to our shares and classified as equity in our consolidated balance sheets, or (iv) any obligation arising out of a variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity withU.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. Actual results may vary from our estimates in amounts that may be material to the financial statements. An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact our consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in our fiscal 2019 Annual Report 37
