NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (the “Company", "AEO", “we”, and “our”), a Delaware corporation, at October 29, 2022, January 29, 2022, and October 30, 2021 and for the 13 and 39 week periods ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report. Therefore, these Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2022 (the “Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and those described in the notes that follow) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The existence of subsequent events has been evaluated through the filing date of this Quarterly Report.
The Company operates under the American Eagle® ("AE") and Aerie® brands. We also operate Todd Snyder New York ("Todd Snyder"), a premium menswear brand, and Unsubscribed, which focuses on consciously-made slow fashion.
Founded in 1977, the Company is a leading multi-brand specialty retailer that operates more than i 1,000 retail stores in the U.S. and internationally, online through our digital channels at www.ae.com and www.aerie.com, www.toddsnyder.com, www.unsubscribed.com and more than i 260 international store locations managed by third-party operators. We offer a broad assortment of high quality, on-trend apparel, accessories, and personal care products at affordable prices for men and women under the AE brand, and intimates, apparel, active wear, and swim collections under the Aerie brand. We sell directly to consumers through our retail channel, which includes our stores and concession-based shop-within-shops. We operate stores in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Hong Kong, and Japan. We also have license agreements with third parties to operate American Eagle and Aerie stores throughout Asia, Europe, India, Latin America, and the Middle East. The Company's online business, AEO Direct, ships to i 81 countries worldwide.
In Fiscal 2021, we acquired AirTerra, Inc. ("AirTerra") and Quiet Logistics, Inc. ("Quiet Logistics"), creating a new supply chain platform ("Quiet Platforms”). AirTerra is a middle-mile freight consolidator that provides cost effective shipping solutions. Quiet Logistics is a leading logistics company that operates a network of in-market fulfillment centers, locating products closer to need, creating inventory efficiencies, cost benefits and affordable same-day and next-day delivery options for customers and stores. Both acquisitions represent an important step in our ongoing supply chain transformation strategy. Quiet Platforms provides fulfillment benefits to American Eagle and Aerie. Additionally, it provides the Company with a new long-term growth opportunity by extending its cutting-edge shared supply chain assets and capabilities to the platform's third party customer file of small- and mid-sized retailers.
Historically, our operations have been seasonal, with a large portion of total net revenue and operating income occurring in the third and fourth fiscal quarters, reflecting increased demand during the back-to-school and year-end holiday selling seasons, respectively. Our quarterly results of operations also may fluctuate based upon such factors as the timing of certain holiday seasons, the number and timing of new store openings, the acceptability of seasonal merchandise offerings, the timing and level of markdowns, store closings and remodels, competitive factors, weather and general economic and political conditions.
COVID-19 Pandemic
Impacts related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic have been significantly negative for the retail industry, our Company, our customers, and our associates. We have experienced and may continue to experience significant disruptions to our business due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the related suggested and mandated social distancing and shelter-in-place orders. During periods when stores have been impacted by reduced mall traffic, we have focused on our omni-channel capabilities. As of October 29, 2022, all of our stores have reopened and remain open, although we continue to see residual impacts on foot traffic and in-store revenues.
The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business are discussed in further detail within these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and within Item 2 of this Quarterly Report, of which these Notes form a part.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated entities where the Company's ownership percentage is less than i 100%. Non-controlling interests are included as a component of contributed capital within the Consolidated Balance Sheets and was not material for any period presented. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. At October 29, 2022, the Company operated in i two reportable segments, American Eagle and Aerie.
/Fiscal Year
Our fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week year that ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. As used herein, “Fiscal 2022” refers to the 52-week period that will end on January 28, 2023. “Fiscal 2021” refers to the 52-week period ended January 29, 2022.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, our management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments. The new guidance eliminates two of the three models in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options that require separating embedded conversion features from convertible instruments. The guidance also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) calculation. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company i adopted ASU 2020-06 effective i January 30, 2022 under the modified retrospective method.
Refer to Note 5 and Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding EPS and long-term debt, respectively.
/Foreign Currency Translation
In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translates assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into United States dollars (“USD”) (the reporting currency) at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. The Company translates revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies into USD at the monthly average exchange rates for the period. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated results of operations, whereas related translation adjustments are reported as an element of other comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with ASC 220, Comprehensive Income.
We are exposed to the impact of foreign exchange rate risk primarily through our Canadian and Mexican operations where the functional currency is the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso, respectively. The impact of all other foreign currencies is currently immaterial to our consolidated financial results. During the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022, an unrealized loss of $ i 1.3 million was included in other comprehensive income (loss). During the 39 weeks ended, October 29, 2022, an unrealized loss of $ i 0.4 million was included in other comprehensive income (loss), primarily related to the fluctuations of the USD to Mexican peso and USD to Canadian dollar exchange rates.
/Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding cash and cash equivalents.
13
Receivables
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses from the failure of certain of our customers to make required payments for products or services delivered. The Company estimates this allowance based on the age of the related receivable, knowledge of the financial condition of customers, review of historical and expected future receivables and reserve trends and other pertinent information. If the financial condition of customers deteriorates or an unfavorable trend in receivable collections is experienced in the future, additional allowances may be required. Historically, the Company’s reserves have approximated actual experience.
Merchandise Inventory
Merchandise inventory is valued at the lower of average cost or net realizable value, utilizing the retail method. Average cost includes merchandise design and sourcing costs and related expenses. The Company records merchandise receipts when control of the merchandise has transferred to the Company.
The Company reviews its inventory levels to identify slow-moving merchandise and generally uses markdowns to clear merchandise. Additionally, the Company estimates a markdown reserve for future planned permanent markdowns related to current inventory. Markdowns may occur when inventory exceeds customer demand for reasons of style, seasonal adaptation, changes in customer preference, lack of consumer acceptance of fashion items, competition, or if it is determined that the inventory in stock will not sell at its currently ticketed price. Such markdowns may have a material adverse impact on earnings, depending on the extent and amount of inventory affected.
The Company also estimates a shrinkage reserve for the period between the last physical count and the balance sheet date. The estimate for the shrinkage reserve, based on historical results, can be affected by changes in merchandise mix and changes in actual shrinkage trends.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded on the basis of cost with depreciation computed utilizing the straight-line method over the asset’s estimated useful life. i The useful lives of our major classes of assets are as follows:
Buildings |
|
i 25 years |
Leasehold improvements |
|
i Lesser of i 10 years or the term of the lease / |
Fixtures and equipment Information technology |
|
i Five years Three - i five years |
As of October 29, 2022, the weighted average remaining useful life of our assets was approximately i 6 years.
In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”), the Company’s management evaluates the value of leasehold improvements, store fixtures, and operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets associated with retail stores. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment at the individual store level, which is the lowest level at which individual cash flows can be identified. Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the projected undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts. When events such as these occur, the impaired assets are adjusted to their estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recorded separately as a component of operating income within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. i i i i No / / / asset impairment charges were recorded during the 13 or 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021.
When the Company closes, remodels, or relocates a store prior to the end of its lease term, the remaining net book value of the assets related to the store is recorded as a write-off of assets within depreciation and amortization expense. Refer to Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding property and equipment.
/Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net
The Company’s goodwill is primarily related to the acquisition of Quiet Logistics in Fiscal 2021, as well as its importing operations and Canadian business, and represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, the Company evaluates goodwill for possible impairment at least annually as of the last day of the fiscal year and upon occurrence of certain triggering events or substantive changes in circumstances that indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit may be below its carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, an impairment charge is recorded in the period of the evaluation based on that difference. As a result of the Company's annual goodwill impairment test as of January 29, 2022, the Company concluded
14
that its goodwill was i not impaired. No indicators of impairment were present during the 13 or 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021.
Definite-lived intangible assets are initially recorded at fair value, with amortization computed utilizing the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets, which consist primarily of trademark assets, are generally amortized over i 10 to i 15 years.
The Company evaluates definite-lived intangible assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 360 when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Such an evaluation includes the estimation of undiscounted future cash flows to be generated by those assets. If the sum of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amounts of the assets, then the assets are impaired and are adjusted to their estimated fair value. i i i i No / / / definite-lived intangible asset impairment charges were recorded during the 13 or 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021.
Refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding goodwill and intangible assets.
/Construction Allowances
As part of certain lease agreements for retail stores, the Company receives construction allowances from lessors, which are generally comprised of cash amounts. The Company records a receivable and an adjustment to the operating lease ROU asset at the lease commencement date (date of initial possession of the store). The deferred lease credit is amortized as part of the single lease cost over the term of the original lease (including the pre-opening build-out period). The receivable is reduced as amounts are received from the lessor.
Self-Insurance Liability
The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance mechanisms for certain losses related to employee medical benefits and worker’s compensation. Costs for self-insurance claims filed and claims incurred but not reported are accrued based on known claims and historical experience. Management believes that it has adequately reserved for its self-insurance liability, which is capped by stop loss contracts with insurance companies. However, any significant variation of future claims from historical trends could cause actual results to differ from the accrued liability.
Leases
The Company leases all store premises, regional distribution facilities, some of its office space, and certain information technology and office equipment. These leases are generally classified as operating leases.
Store leases generally provide for a combination of base rentals and contingent rent based on store sales. Additionally, most leases include lessor incentives such as construction allowances and rent holidays. The Company is typically responsible for tenant occupancy costs including maintenance costs, common area charges, real estate taxes and certain other expenses. When measuring operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities, the Company only includes cash flows related to options to extend or terminate leases once those options are executed.
Some leases have variable payments. However, because they are not based on an index or rate, they are not included in the measurement of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities.
When determining the present value of future payments for an operating lease that does not have a readily determinable implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as of the date of initial possession of the leased asset.
For leases that qualify for the short-term lease exemption, the Company does not record an operating lease liability or operating lease ROU asset. Short-term lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term of 12 months or less.
Co-branded Credit Card
The Company offers a co-branded credit card and a private label credit card under the AE and Aerie brands. These credit cards are issued by a third-party bank (the “Bank”) in accordance with a credit card agreement (the “Agreement”). The Company has no liability to the Bank for bad debt expense, provided that purchases are made in accordance with the Bank’s procedures. We receive funding from the Bank based on the Agreement and card activity, which includes payments for new account activations and usage of the credit cards. We recognize revenue for this funding as we fulfill our performance obligations under the Agreement. This revenue is recorded in other revenue, which is a component of total net revenue in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
For further information on the Company’s loyalty program, refer to the Customer Loyalty Program caption below.
15
Customer Loyalty Program
The Company offers a highly digitized loyalty program called Real Rewards by American Eagle and Aerie™ (the “Program”). i This Program features both shared and unique benefits for loyalty members and credit card holders. Under the Program, members accumulate points based on purchase activity and earn rewards by reaching certain point thresholds. Members earn rewards in the form of discount savings certificates. Rewards earned are valid through the stated expiration date, which is i 60 days from the issuance date of the reward. Rewards not redeemed during the 60-day redemption period are forfeited. /
Points earned under the Program on purchases at American Eagle and Aerie are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The portion of the sales revenue attributed to the reward points is deferred and recognized when the reward is redeemed or when the points expire, using the relative stand-alone selling price method. Additionally, reward points earned using the co-branded credit card on non-AE or Aerie purchases are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. As the points are earned, a current liability is recorded for the estimated cost of the reward, and the impact of adjustments is recorded in revenue.
The Company defers a portion of the sales revenue attributed to the loyalty points and recognizes revenue when the points are redeemed or expire, consistent with the requirements of ASC 606.
/Long-Term Debt
In April 2020, the Company issued $ i 415 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes"). Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 in Fiscal 2022, the 2025 Notes were accounted for under the cash conversion model, which is one of the models eliminated by ASU 2020-06. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 resulted in the 2025 Notes being accounted for as a single balance in long-term debt, rather than being accounted for as separate debt and equity components. As of October 29, 2022, approximately $ i 69.6 million aggregate principal of the 2025 Notes remain outstanding.
In June 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides senior secured asset based revolving credit for loans and letters of credit up to $ i 700 million, subject to customary borrowing base limitations (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility expires on i June 24, 2027.
Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding Long-Term Debt.
/Income Taxes
The Company calculates income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires the use of the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the difference between the Consolidated Financial Statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as computed pursuant to ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates, based on certain judgments regarding enacted tax laws and published guidance, in effect in the years when those temporary differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established against the deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred taxes may not be realized. Changes in the Company’s level and composition of earnings, tax laws or the deferred tax valuation allowance, as well as the results of tax audits, may materially impact the Company’s effective income tax rate.
The Company evaluates its income tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, which prescribes a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, including a decision whether to file or not to file in a particular jurisdiction. Under ASC 740, a tax benefit from an uncertain position may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable based on its technical merits.
The calculation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as the decision to recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain position and to establish a valuation allowance, requires management to make estimates and assumptions. The Company believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, although actual results may have a positive or negative material impact on the balances of deferred tax assets and liabilities, valuation allowances or net income (loss).
Refer to Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding income taxes.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue pursuant to ASC 606. Revenue is recorded for store sales upon the purchase of merchandise by customers. The Company’s e-commerce operation records revenue upon the customer receipt date of the merchandise. Shipping and handling revenues are included in total net revenue. Sales tax collected from customers is
16
excluded from revenue and is included as part of accrued income and other taxes on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Revenue is recorded net of estimated and actual sales returns and promotional price reductions. The Company records the impact of adjustments to its sales return reserve quarterly within total net revenue and cost of sales. The sales return reserve reflects an estimate of sales returns based on projected merchandise returns determined using historical average return percentages. The presentation on a gross basis of the sales return reserve consists of a separate right of return asset and liability. These amounts are recorded within (i) prepaid expenses and other and (ii) other current liabilities and accrued expenses, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Revenue is not recorded on the issuance of gift cards. A current liability is recorded upon issuance, and revenue is recognized when the gift card is redeemed for merchandise. Additionally, the Company recognizes revenue on gift card breakage, determined through historical redemption trends. Revenue on unredeemed gift cards, based on an estimate of the amounts that will not be redeemed "gift card breakage"), is recognized in proportion to actual gift card redemptions as a component of total net revenue. The Company determines an estimated gift card breakage rate by continuously evaluating historical redemption data and the time when there is a remote likelihood that a gift card will be redeemed. The Company recorded approximately $ i i 1.7 / million of revenue related to gift card breakage during both the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021. During the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, the Company recorded $ i 6.6 million and $ i 6.1 million, respectively, of revenue related to gift card breakage.
The Company recognizes royalty revenue generated from its license or franchise agreements based on a percentage of merchandise sales by the licensee/franchisee. This revenue is recorded as a component of total net revenue when earned and collection is probable.
The Company defers a portion of the sales revenue attributed to loyalty points and recognizes revenue when the points are redeemed or expire, consistent with the requirements of ASC 606. Refer to the Customer Loyalty Program caption above for additional information.
Revenue associated with Quiet Platforms is recognized as the services are performed.
/Cost of Sales, Including Certain Buying, Occupancy and Warehousing Expenses
Cost of sales consists of merchandise costs, including design, sourcing, importing and inbound freight costs, as well as markdowns, shrinkage and certain promotional costs (collectively, “merchandise costs”) and buying, occupancy and warehousing costs and services.
Design costs are related to the Company's Design Center operations and include compensation, travel and entertainment, supplies and samples for our design teams, as well as rent and depreciation for our Design Center. These costs are included in cost of sales as the respective inventory is sold.
Buying, occupancy and warehousing costs and services consist of compensation, employee benefit expenses and travel and entertainment for our buyers and certain senior merchandising executives; rent and utilities related to our stores, corporate headquarters, distribution centers and other office space; freight from our distribution centers to the stores; compensation and supplies for our distribution centers, including purchasing, receiving and inspection costs; and shipping and handling costs related to our e-commerce operation. Gross profit is the difference between total net revenue and cost of sales.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") consist of compensation and employee benefit expenses, including salaries, incentives and related benefits associated with our stores and corporate headquarters. SG&A expenses also include advertising costs, supplies for our stores and home office, communication costs, travel and entertainment, leasing costs and services purchased.
SG&A expenses do not include compensation, employee benefit expenses and travel for our design, sourcing and importing teams, our buyers and our distribution centers as these amounts are recorded in cost of sales. Additionally, SG&A expenses do not include rent and utilities related to our stores, operating costs of our distribution centers, and shipping and handling costs related to our e-commerce operations, all of which are included in cost of sales.
Debt Related Charges
Debt related charges consists primarily of a $ i 55.7 million induced conversion expense on the exchange of the 2025 Notes, along with certain other costs related to actions we took to strengthen our capital structure during the 26 weeks ended July 30, 2022. Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the 2025 Notes.
/17
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net primarily consists of interest expense related to the Company’s 2025 Notes and borrowings under our Credit Facility, partially offset by interest income from cash and cash equivalents.
Other Expense (Income), Net
Other expense (income), net consists of allowances for uncollectible receivables, foreign currency fluctuations and changes in other non-operating items. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests was not material for any period presented and is included within other expense (income), net.

4. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement Disclosures (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined under ASC 820 as the exit price associated with the sale of an asset or transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Financial Instruments
Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. In addition, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
The Company’s cash equivalents are Level 1 financial assets and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, for all periods presented. Refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding cash equivalents.

Long-Term Debt
As of October 29, 2022, the fair value of the Company's $ i 343.0 million in outstanding borrowings under its Credit Facility approximated the carrying value. As of October 30, 2021, the Company had i no outstanding borrowings under its previous credit agreement.
The Company had approximately $ i 69.6 million aggregate principal of the i 2025 Notes outstanding at October 29, 2022. The fair value of the Company's 2025 Notes is not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Upon issuance, the fair value of the 2025 Notes was measured using two approaches that consider market related conditions, including market benchmark rates and a secondary market quoted price, and is therefore within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding long-term debt and other credit arrangements.
Non-Financial Assets
The Company’s non-financial assets, which include intangible assets and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur and the Company is required to evaluate the non-financial asset for impairment, a resulting impairment would require that the non-financial asset be recorded at the estimated fair value. There were i i i i no / / / asset impairment charges recorded during the 13 or 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021.
The Company evaluates goodwill for possible impairment at least annually as of the last day of the fiscal year and upon occurrence of certain triggering events or substantive changes in circumstances that indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit may be below its carrying value. The Company last performed an annual goodwill impairment test using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820 as of January 29, 2022. As a result of the Company's annual goodwill impairment test, the Company concluded that its goodwill was not impaired. No indicators of impairment were present during the 13 or 39 weeks ended
19
October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021. Refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding goodwill and intangible assets.

10. Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and is adjusted as necessary for discrete quarterly events. The effective income tax rate for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 was i 28.0% compared to i 25.5% for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The effective income tax rate for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 was i 34.1% compared to i 24.9% for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The change in the effective tax rate for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 is primarily due to international tax provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"), the impact of tax guidance related to foreign taxes, and overall geographic mix of earnings in jurisdictions with different tax rates. The change in the effective tax rate for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 is primarily due to the Note Exchange as a portion of the inducement charge was not deductible, lower excess tax benefits on share-based payments, and state legislative changes.
The Company records accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The Company recognizes income tax liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with ASC 740 and adjusts these liabilities when its judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Unrecognized tax benefits did not change significantly during the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022. Over the next twelve months, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by approximately $ i 0.8 million due to settlements, expiration of statute of limitations, or other changes in unrecognized tax benefits.
/11. Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims arising out of the conduct of its business. In accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies (“ASC 450”), the Company records a reserve for estimated losses when the loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a range of possible loss exists and no anticipated loss within the range is more likely than any other anticipated loss, the Company records the accrual at the low end of the range, in accordance with ASC 450. As the Company believes that it has provided adequate reserves, it anticipates that the ultimate outcome of any matter currently pending against the Company will not materially affect the consolidated financial position, results of operations or consolidated cash flows of the Company. However, our assessment of any litigation or other legal claims could potentially change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known or determinations by judges, juries, or other finders of fact which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.
12. Segment Reporting
In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company has identified i i two / operating segments (American Eagle brand and Aerie brand) that also represent our reportable segments and reflect the Chief Operating Decision Maker’s (defined as our CEO) internal view of analyzing results and allocating resources. Additionally, our Todd Snyder brand, Unsubscribed brand, and Quiet Platforms have been identified as separate operating segments; however, as they do not meet the quantitative thresholds for separate disclosure, they have been included in the Corporate and Other category, as permitted by ASC 280.
Our CEO analyzes segment results and allocates resources between segments based on the adjusted operating income (loss), or the operating income (loss) in periods where there are no adjustments, of each segment. Adjusted operating income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure ("non-GAAP" or "adjusted") that is defined by the Company as operating income excluding impairment, restructuring and COVID-19 related charges. Adjusted operating income (loss) is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that this non-GAAP information is useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate our operating performance, when reviewed in conjunction with our GAAP consolidated financial statements and provides a higher degree of transparency. These amounts are not determined in accordance with GAAP and, therefore, should not be used exclusively in evaluating our business and operations. There were no adjustments to operating income in either the 13 or 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021 for any segment, therefore adjusted operating income (loss) is not presented in the table below.

In addition, the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements and should be read in conjunction with these statements and notes thereto.
Introduction

Executive Overview
We are a leading global specialty retailer offering high-quality, on-trend clothing, accessories and personal care products at affordable prices under our American Eagle®, Aerie® and other brands.
We have two reportable segments, American Eagle and Aerie. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (defined as our CEO) analyzes segment results and allocates resources between segments based on adjusted operating income (loss), or the operating income (loss) in periods where there are no adjustments, of each segment. See Note 12. “Segment Reporting,” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for additional information.
26
Key Performance Indicators
Our management evaluates the following items, which are considered key performance indicators, in assessing our performance:
Comparable sales — Comparable sales and comparable sales changes provide a measure of sales growth for stores and channels open at least one year over the comparable prior year period. In fiscal years following those with 53 weeks, the prior year period is shifted by one week to compare similar calendar weeks. A store is included in comparable sales in the thirteenth month of operation. However, stores that have a gross square footage change of 25% or greater due to a remodel are removed from the comparable sales base, but are included in total sales. These stores are returned to the comparable sales base in the thirteenth month following the remodel. Sales from American Eagle, Aerie, Todd Snyder, and Unsubscribed stores, as well as sales from AEO Direct and other digital channels, are included in total comparable sales. Sales from licensed stores are not included in comparable sales. Individual American Eagle and Aerie brand comparable sales disclosures include sales from stores and AEO Direct.
Omni-channel Sales Performance – Our management utilizes the following quality of sales metrics in evaluating our omni-channel sales performance: comparable sales, average unit retail price, total transactions, units per transaction, and consolidated comparable traffic. We include these metrics in our discussion within this MD&A when we believe they enhance the understanding of the matter being discussed. Investors may find them useful as such. Each of these metrics is defined as follows (except comparable sales, which is defined separately above):
Gross profit — Gross profit measures whether we are optimizing the profitability of our sales. Gross profit is the difference between total net revenue and cost of sales. Cost of sales consists of merchandise costs, including design, sourcing, importing, and inbound freight costs, as well as markdowns, shrinkage and certain promotional costs and buying, occupancy and warehousing costs and services. Design costs consist of compensation, rent, depreciation, travel, supplies, and samples.
Buying, occupancy and warehousing costs and services consist of: compensation, employee benefit expenses and travel for our buyers and certain senior merchandising executives; rent and utilities related to our stores, corporate headquarters, distribution centers and other office space; freight from our distribution centers to the stores; compensation and supplies for our distribution centers, including purchasing, receiving and inspection costs; and shipping and handling costs related to our e-commerce operations.
The inability to obtain acceptable levels of sales, initial markups or any significant increase in our use of markdowns could have an adverse effect on our gross consolidated profit and results of operations.
Operating income — Our management views operating income as a key indicator of our performance. The key drivers of operating income are net revenue, gross profit, our ability to control SG&A expenses, and our level of capital expenditures.
Cash flow and liquidity — Our management evaluates cash flow from operations and investing and financing activities in determining the sufficiency of our cash position and capital allocation strategies. Cash flow has historically been sufficient to cover our uses of cash. Our management believes that cash flow and liquidity will be sufficient to fund anticipated capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the next twelve months and beyond.
Current Trends and Outlook
Inflation
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022, our quarterly results were negatively impacted by macro-economic challenges and global inflationary pressures impacting consumer spending behavior, which constrained revenue and increased margin pressure to clear through excess inventory. Given ongoing external uncertainties, we have taken additional actions to improve financial performance, including more extensive expense and capital expenditure reductions. For further
27
information about the risks associated with global economic conditions and the effect of economic pressures on our business, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K.
COVID-19
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic remains highly volatile and continues to evolve on a daily basis, and we continue to see disruptions and volatility in our business caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The unpredictability of the trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly diminished visibility into the future operating environment, and we believe that the Company may continue to experience degrees of volatility and business disruptions and remain at risk for periods of closure of our stores, distribution centers, and corporate facilities. While trends in new cases of COVID-19 in the United States improved during the nine months ended October 29, 2022 compared to the final quarter of Fiscal 2021, we cannot reasonably estimate the extent to which our business will continue to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Past and future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic may disrupt the operations of our partners, suppliers, and vendors, which could lead to or exacerbate existing supply chain disruptions, shipping delays, freight cost increases, and labor shortages. We are monitoring ongoing developments, and we will take further actions that we believe are in the best interests of our associates and customers, as needed. For further information about the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K.
Quiet Platforms
In Fiscal 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of AirTerra and Quiet Logistics. With these acquisitions, the Company expects to be able to execute on operational efficiencies to create a supply chain platform, which we refer to as Quiet Platforms, with significant long-term growth potential.
Omni-Channel and Digital Capabilities
We sell merchandise through our digital channels, www.ae.com, www.aerie.com, www.toddsnyder.com, www.unsubscribed.com, and our AEO apps, both domestically and internationally in 81 countries. We also sell merchandise on various international online marketplaces. The digital channels reinforce each particular brand and are designed to complement the in-store experience.
Over the past several years, we have invested in building our technologies and digital capabilities. We focused our investments in three key areas: making significant advances in mobile technology, investing in digital marketing and improving the digital customer experience.
Non-GAAP Information
The results of operations section below contains net income (loss) per diluted share presented on an adjusted or non-GAAP basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. This financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that this non-GAAP information is useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate our operating performance when reviewed in conjunction with our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements and provides a higher degree of transparency. These amounts are not determined in accordance with GAAP and, therefore, should not be used exclusively in evaluating our business and operations. The table below reconciles the GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measure discussed above.

Results of Operations
Overview
Demand in the third quarter was soft, reflecting the impact of inflationary pressure and a related shift in consumer spending patterns. In this environment, margin pressure was more amplified as we worked to clear through excess spring and summer goods. Given ongoing uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment, we have taken additional steps to position the business for improved financial performance. This includes further resetting inventory plans for the back half of the year, expanding the scope of expense and capital expenditure reductions.

As of October 29, 2022, we operated 876 American Eagle retail stores, which include 189 Aerie side-by-side locations and two OFFLINE™ side-by-side locations, 292 Aerie stand-alone stores (including 33 OFFLINE™ stand-alone stores and 26 OFFLINE™ side-by-side locations), and AEO Direct. Additionally, there were six Todd Snyder stand-alone locations and five Unsubscribed locations.
Comparison of the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 to the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021
Total Net Revenue
Total net revenue decreased $33.5 million, to $1.241 billion compared to $1.274 billion last year.
American Eagle
Total net revenue for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 for the American Eagle brand was $837.6 million compared to $941.0 million for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Aerie
Total net revenue for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 for the Aerie brand was $349.7 million compared to $315.0 million for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased 15% or $84.7 million to $479.8 million compared to $564.5 million last year. Our gross margin percentage decreased to 38.7% of revenue from 44.3% of revenue last year. Higher markdowns and increased product
costs drove approximately 400 basis points of the decline. Rent and warehousing also deleveraged, partially offset
by lower compensation costs.
There was $3.7 million and $3.5 million of share-based payment expense included in gross profit for the 13 week periods ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively, comprised of both time and performance-based awards.
Our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other retailers, as some retailers include all costs related to their distribution network as well as design costs in cost of sales and others may exclude a portion of these costs from cost of sales, including them in a line item such as SG&A expenses. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our accounting policy regarding cost of sales, including certain buying, occupancy and warehousing expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses decreased 1% or $2.8 million to $311.1 million from $313.9 million last year. As a percentage of total net revenue, SG&A expenses increased 50 basis points to 25.1%, compared to 24.6% last year. The decrease in expenses was primarily related to lower
incentive accruals and expense actions announced earlier this year.
There was $3.1 million and $4.4 million of share-based payment expense included in SG&A expenses for the 13 week periods ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively, comprised of both time and performance-based awards.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 25% or $10.2 million, to $51.1 million for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to $40.9 million for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021, which was primarily driven by increased capital spending and the acquisition of Quiet Logistics that occurred on December 29, 2021. As a percentage of total net revenue, depreciation and amortization expense was 4.1% for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 compared to 3.2% for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased $4.7 million, to $3.9 million, for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to $8.6 million for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The decrease in expense was primarily attributable to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 30, 2022 which reduced non-cash interest expense related to amortization of the non-cash discount on our 2025 Notes and the Note Exchange that occurred in June 2022 which reduced the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes, partially offset by $2.9 million of interest expense from borrowings under our Credit Facility this year.
30
Other Expense (Income), net
Other expense (income), net was $0.8 million for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to other expense (income), net of ($3.1) million for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and is adjusted as necessary for discrete quarterly events. The effective income tax rate for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 was 28.0% compared to 25.5% for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The change in the effective tax rate for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022 is primarily due to the international tax provisions of the Tax Act, the impact of tax guidance related to foreign taxes, and overall geographic mix of earnings in jurisdictions with different tax rates.
Net Income
Net income decreased $70.9 million, to $81.3 million for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022, or 6.6% as a percentage of total net revenue, compared to net income of $152.2 million, or 11.9% as a percentage of total net revenue for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Net income per share decreased to $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $0.74 per diluted share, which included $0.02 of the amortization of the non-cash discount on the 2025 Notes for the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The change in net income was attributable to the factors noted above.
Comparison of the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 to the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021
Total Net Revenue
Total net revenue decreased by $9.1 million, to $3.494 billion compared to $3.503 billion last year.
American Eagle
Total net revenue for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 for the American Eagle brand was $2.301 billion compared to $2.514 billion for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Aerie
Total net revenue for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 for the Aerie brand was $1.043 billion compared to $947.9 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased 18% or $265.3 million, to $1.238 billion compared to $1.503 billion last year. Our gross margin percentage decreased to 35.5% of revenue from 42.9% of revenue last year. The gross margin decline was driven by a 370 basis point impact from higher markdowns, largely reflecting initiatives to clear excess inventory. Delivery, warehousing costs and rent also increased, offset by lower incentive compensation accruals.
There was $13.1 million and $11.6 million of share-based payment expense included in gross profit for the 39 week periods ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively, comprised of both time and performance-based awards.
Our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other retailers, as some retailers include all costs related to their distribution network as well as design costs in cost of sales and others may exclude a portion of these costs from cost of sales, including them in a line item such as SG&A expenses. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our accounting policy regarding cost of sales, including certain buying, occupancy and warehousing expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses increased 5% or $45.4 million to $917.7 million from $872.3 million last year. As a percentage of total net revenue, SG&A expenses increased 140 basis points to 26.3%, compared to 24.9% last year. The increase in expenses was primarily related to increased store wages and corporate compensation, professional services and advertising, partially offset by lower incentive compensation accruals.
There was $16.9 million and $17.8 million of share-based payment expense included in SG&A expenses for the 39 week periods ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively, comprised of both time and performance-based awards.
31
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 23% or $27.0 million, to $146.7 million for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to $119.7 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021, which was primarily driven by increased capital spending and the acquisition of Quiet Logistics on December 29, 2021. As a percentage of total net revenue, depreciation and amortization expense was 4.2% this year compared to 3.4% last year.
Debt Related Charges
Debt related charges of $60.1 million for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 consists primarily of a $55.7 million induced conversion expense related to the Note Exchange, along with certain other costs related to actions we took to strengthen our capital structure.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased $14.1 million, to $11.9 million, for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to $26.0 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The decrease in expense was primarily attributable to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 30, 2022 which reduced non-cash interest expense related to amortization of the non-cash discount on our 2025 Notes and the Note Exchange that occurred in June 2022 which reduced the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes, partially offset by $3.9 million of interest expense from borrowings under our Credit Facility.

Other expense (income), net was ($5.5) million for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to ($6.4) million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and is adjusted as necessary for discrete quarterly events. The effective income tax rate for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 was 34.1% compared to 24.9% for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The change in the effective tax rate, as compared to the prior period, is primarily due to the Note Exchange as a portion of the inducement charge was not deductible, lower excess tax benefits on share-based payments, and state legislative changes.
Net Income
Net income decreased $298.7 million to $70.5 million for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, or 2.0% as a percentage of total net revenue, compared to $369.2 million, or 10.5% as a percentage of total net revenue for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021.
Net income per share decreased to $0.36 per diluted share, including $0.24 of debt related charges for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to net income of $1.78 per diluted share, including $0.05 of the amortization of the non-cash discount on the 2025 Notes for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The change in net income was attributable to the factors noted above.
International Operations
We have agreements with multiple third-party operators to expand our brands internationally. Our international licensing partners acquire the right to sell, promote, market, and/or distribute various categories of our products in a given geographic area and to source products from us. International licensees' rights include the right to own and operate retail stores and may include rights to sell in wholesale markets, shop-in-shop concessions and operate online marketplace businesses. As of October 29, 2022, our international licensing partners operated in more than 260 licensed retail stores and concessions, as well as wholesale markets, online brand sites, and online marketplaces in 26 countries.
As of October 29, 2022, we had 103 company-owned stores in Canada, 67 in Mexico, 18 in Hong Kong, 7 in Puerto Rico and 2 in Japan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our uses of cash have historically been for working capital, the construction of new stores and remodeling of existing stores, information technology and e-commerce upgrades and investments, distribution center improvements and expansion, and the return of value to shareholders through the repurchase of common stock and the payment of dividends. Additionally, our uses of cash have included the development of the Aerie brand, investments in supply chain technology and omni-channel capabilities, and our international expansion efforts.
Historically, our uses of cash have been funded with cash flow from operations and existing cash on hand. We also maintain a Credit Facility that allows us to borrow up to $700 million, which will expire in June 2027. As of October 29, 2022, we had borrowings under the Credit Facility of $343.0 million. Additionally, approximately $69.6 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes remain outstanding at October 29, 2022.
As of October 29, 2022, we had approximately $82.1 million in cash and cash equivalents. We expect to be able to fund our current and long-term cash requirements through current cash holdings and available liquidity.
The following sets forth certain measures of our liquidity:

Working capital increased $37.6 million compared to January 29, 2022 and decreased $314.3 million compared to last year. The $314.3 million decrease in our working capital compared to October 30, 2021, is driven by a $658.5 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents. This decrease is primarily related to our acquisition of Quiet Logistics in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2021 totaling $358.1 million (net of cash acquired), as well as $200.0 million in share repurchases under our ASR Agreement and $136.1 million in cash paid to holders of the 2025 Notes pursuant to the Note Exchange during the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022. This decrease in working capital was partially offset by a $126.1 million decrease in accounts payable, an $87.2 million decrease in accrued compensation, a $79.8
million increase in prepaid expenses and other,
and a $57.9 million increase in inventory.
Cash Flows (Used for) Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash used for operating activities totaled $86.7 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2022, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $133.7 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. For both periods, our major source of cash from operations was merchandise sales and our primary outflow of cash from operations was for the payment of operational costs.
Cash Flows Used for Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities totaled $200.1 million for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to net cash used for investing activities of $148.8 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. Investing activities for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 primarily consisted of $199.4 million of capital expenditures for property and equipment. Investing activities for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 primarily consisted of $144.4 million of capital expenditures for property and equipment.
Cash Flows Used for Financing Activities
Net cash used for financing activities totaled $64.1 million for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared to net cash used for financing activities of $94.8 million for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. Cash used for financing activities for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 consisted primarily of $200.0 million used to repurchase the Company's common stock under the ASR Agreement, $136.1 million used for the principal paid in connection with the Note Exchange, $64.8 million used for cash dividends paid at a quarterly rate of $0.18 per share during the 26 weeks ended July 30, 2022 and $9.8 million used for the repurchase of common stock from employees for the payment of taxes in connection with vesting of share-based payments, partially offset by $343.0 million of proceeds from borrowings under our Credit Facility.
Cash used for financing activities for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 consisted primarily of $83.6 million for cash dividends paid at quarterly rates of $0.1375 for the 13 weeks ended May 2, 2021 and $0.18 per share for the 13 weeks ended July 31, 2021 and October 30, 2021, and $24.0 million for the repurchase of common stock from employees for the payment of taxes in connection with vesting of share-based payments, partially offset by $13.1 million of proceeds from stock option exercises.

Credit Facility
In June 2022, we entered into the Credit Agreement, which provides senior secured asset-based revolving credit for loans and letters of credit up to $700 million pursuant to the Credit Facility, subject to customary borrowing base limitations. The Credit Facility expires on June 24, 2027.
All obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by certain subsidiaries. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by certain assets of the Company and certain subsidiaries.
As of October 29, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and had $343.0 million in borrowings and $7.9 million outstanding in stand-by letters of credit. No loans were outstanding under the Company's previous credit agreement as of October 30, 2021.
Capital Expenditures for Property and Equipment
Capital expenditures for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 were $199.4 million, and included $119.0 million related to investments in our stores, including 72 new stores (19 American Eagle stores, 51 combined Aerie stand-alone stores and OFFLINE™ stand-alone stores, one Todd Snyder store, and one Unsubscribed store), and fixtures and visual investments. Additionally, we continued to support our infrastructure growth by investing in information technology initiatives ($56.4 million), Quiet Platforms ($21.2 million) and other home office projects ($2.8 million).
For Fiscal 2022, we expect total capital expenditures to be approximately $250 million, related to the continued support of our expansion efforts, stores, information technology upgrades to support growth, and investments in e-commerce, as well as to support and enhance our supply chain. We expect to be able to fund our capital expenditures through current cash holdings and available liquidity.
Share Repurchases
During Fiscal 2019, our Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized the repurchase of 30.0 million shares under a share repurchase program.
On June 3, 2022, the Company entered into an ASR Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank (“JPM”) to repurchase an aggregate of $200.0 million of the Company’s common stock.
Pursuant to the terms of the ASR Agreement, on June 3, 2022, the Company paid to JPM $200.0 million in cash and received an initial delivery of 13.4 million shares of its common stock on June 3, 2022. At final settlement, on July 28, 2022, an additional 3.7 million shares were received. The cumulative repurchase under the ASR Agreement was 17.0 million shares repurchased at an average price per share of $11.75.
As of October 29, 2022, our total remaining share repurchase authorization was approximately 13.0 million shares.
During the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, we repurchased approximately 0.6 million and 0.8 million shares, respectively, from certain employees at market prices totaling $9.8 million and $24.0 million, respectively. These shares were repurchased for the payment of taxes, in connection with the vesting of share-based payments, as permitted under our equity incentive plans.
The aforementioned repurchased shares have been recorded as treasury stock.
Dividends
During the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2022, the Company announced that, given ongoing external uncertainties, in order to increase financial flexibility it is temporarily suspending its quarterly cash dividends.
The Company maintains the right to defer the record and payment dates of any declared dividends, depending upon, among other factors, the progression of the COVID-19 outbreak, business performance, and the macroeconomic environment. The payment of future dividends is at the discretion of our Board and is based on future earnings, cash flow, financial condition, capital requirements, changes in U.S. taxation, and other relevant factors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended January 29, 2022 contained in our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. Any new accounting policies or updates to existing accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements have been discussed in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report. The application of our critical accounting policies and estimates may require our management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our management
34
uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are primarily exposed to the impact of foreign exchange rate risk primarily through our Canadian and Mexican operations where the functional currency is the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso, respectively. The impact of all other foreign currencies is currently immaterial to our consolidated financial results. An unrealized loss of $1.3 million and $0.4 million was included in other comprehensive income during the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, respectively. Our market risk profile as of January 29, 2022, is disclosed in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K, and is unchanged as of October 29, 2022.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the management of American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (the “Management”), including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report, as of October 29, 2022, the Company performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in the timely and accurate recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting of material financial and non-financial information within the time periods specified within the SEC’s rules and forms. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
35
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
We are involved, from time to time, in actions associated with or incidental to our business, including, among other things, matters involving consumer privacy, trademark and other intellectual property, licensing, importation of products, taxation, and employee relations. We believe at present that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, our assessment of any litigation or other legal claims could potentially change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known or determinations by judges, juries, or other finders of fact that are not in accord with management's evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.
Refer to Note 11. “Legal Proceedings” of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for additional information.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed within Part I, Item 1A of our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our risk factors as disclosed in the Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K.
