We have the kind of culture, the kind of talented people on our team and exactly the kind of track record that demonstrate we can prosper regardless of the state of our industry. On behalf of the entire G-III organization, I would like to thank all of our shareholders for their continued interest and support. Sincerely,improved year with full year comps up low double-digits outside of the U.S. and mid-single digits in the U.S. We continue to push for expanded wholesale distribution in the best specialty stores in the world, as well as a more vibrant company-owned ecommerce business. We are particularly focused on developing the business in China and have signed a key partner for distribution in some of the best markets in China.We are continuing to make changes to our business to address the additional challenges and opportunities created by the evolving role of the online marketplace in the retail sector and expect to increase the sale of our products in an omni-channel environment. We benefit from the growth our partners are experiencing from their well-developed web sites and have also increased sales to pure play online retail partners. We are further developing the web sites of our own proprietary brands as well. While not a significant contributor to our business at present, we plan on increasing sales from this channel. This past year was about demonstrating, despite the pressures on a disrupted retail industry, a superior ability to grow. I am pleased that we did exactly that. As we look ahead to the upcoming year, we see a significant opportunity for us to continue to grow our business and to be the partner of choice for licensors and department stores. We believe that we have brands that resonate. While everyone in our industry is facing challenges, we believe that this market is an (1) Includes expenses associated with the G.H.

Ltd. and its subsidiaries. References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that
year. For example, our fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 is referred to as “fiscal 2018.”

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd.

is a Delaware corporation that was formed in 1989. We and our

predecessors have conducted our business since 1974.

All share and per share data in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been retroactively adjusted to

reflect our two-for-one stock split effected on May 1, 2015.

Overview

G-III designs, manufactures and markets an extensive range of apparel, including outerwear, dresses,
sportswear, swimwear, women’s suits and women’s performance wear, as well as women’s handbags,
footwear, small leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage. G-III has a substantial portfolio of
over 40 licensed and proprietary brands, anchored by five global power brands: DKNY, Donna Karan,
Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger and Karl Lagerfeld. We are not only licensees, but also brand owners, and we
distribute our products through multiple channels of distribution including brick and mortar and online
channels.

Our own proprietary brands include DKNY, Donna Karan, Vilebrequin, Eliza J, Jessica Howard, G.H.
Bass, Andrew Marc and Marc New York. We sell products under an extensive portfolio of well-known
licensed brands, including Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Levi’s, Docker’s, Kenneth
Cole, Cole Haan and Guess?. In our team sports business, we have licenses with the National Football
League, National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball, National Hockey League and over 150
U.S. colleges and universities. We also sell products under private retail labels for retailers such as Costco,
Christopher A. Banks, Express, Harley Davidson, JC Penney and Ross Stores.

Our products are sold through a cross section of leading retailers such as Macy’s, Hudson’s Bay
Company, including their Lord & Taylor and Saks Fifth Avenue divisions, Ross Stores, Dillard’s, Burlington
Coat Factory, Nordstrom, JC Penney and TJX Companies. We also sell our products over the web through
retail partners such as Macys.com and Nordstrom.com, each of which has a significant online business. We
have also increased sales to pure play online retail partners such as Amazon and Fanatics.

We also distribute apparel and other products through our own retail stores. Substantially all of our
DKNY, Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass stores are operated as outlet stores. As of January 31, 2018, we
operated 165 Wilsons Leather stores, 139 G.H. Bass stores, 51 DKNY stores, 8 Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores
and 4 Calvin Klein Performance stores, of which 359 were located in the continental U.S. and Puerto Rico
and 8 are located internationally. Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY each operates its own online
store.
In addition, as of January 31, 2018, Vilebrequin products were distributed through 91
company-operated stores, as well as through 66 franchised locations and e-commerce stores in each of
Europe and the United States.

Recent Transactions

We have acquired businesses that have broadened our product offerings, expanded our ability to serve
different tiers of distribution and added a retail component to our business. Our acquisitions and joint
ventures are part of our strategy to expand our product offerings and increase the portfolio of proprietary
and licensed brands that we offer through different tiers of retail distribution.

Donna Karan/DKNY

other associated brands. We believe that we can also capitalize on significant, untapped global licensing
potential in a number of men’s categories, as well as in home and jewelry. We plan to leverage our
demonstrated ability to drive organic growth,
identify and integrate acquisitions and develop talent
throughout the organization to maximize the potential of the DKNY and Donna Karan brands.

In March 2017, we entered into an agreement with Macy’s under which Macy’s serves, since
February 2018, as the exclusive U.S. department store for sales of DKNY women’s apparel and accessories.
Under the agreement, Macy’s has the exclusive rights to sell DKNY women’s apparel, including women’s
sportswear, dresses, suit separates, women’s performance wear, denim, swimwear and outerwear, handbags
and women’s shoes, as well as men’s swimwear and outerwear, and luggage in all Macy’s locations and on
Macys.com. The agreement also plans for increased and enhanced DKNY shop-in-shops in many Macy’s
stores. G-III and Macy’s are committed to making DKNY the premier fashion and lifestyle brand.

We sell DKNY products through department stores, specialty retailers and online retailers worldwide,
as well as through company-operated retail stores, e-commerce sites and distribution agreements. We also
maintain DKNY’s agreements with international license partners and distributors outside of the United
States. Products outside the exclusive categories and products distributed by DKNY’s various licensees
under other categories will continue to be sold to department stores, including Macy’s. In addition, we
re-launched Donna Karan as an aspirational luxury brand that is priced above DKNY and targeted to fine
department stores globally.

In August 2017, we entered into a joint venture with Amlon Capital B.V. (“Amlon”) to produce and
market women’s and men’s apparel and accessories pursuant to a long-term license for DKNY and Donna
Karan in the People’s Republic of China, including Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. We own 49% of the
joint venture, with Amlon owning the remaining 51%. The principals of Amlon were formerly executives of
Tommy Hilfiger and were instrumental in the expansion of the Tommy Hilfiger brand in China. The joint
venture will be funded with $25 million of equity to be used to strengthen the DKNY and Donna Karan
brands and accelerate the growth of the business in the region. Of this amount, we are required to
contribute an aggregate of $10 million to the joint venture by August 2018. Starting January 1, 2018, this
joint venture is the exclusive seller of women’s and men’s apparel, handbags, luggage and certain accessories
under the DKNY and Donna Karan brands in the territory. The joint venture commenced operations in
the second half of fiscal 2018 and was operating 13 stores as of January 31, 2018.

Karl Lagerfeld Paris

In June 2015, we acquired a 49% interest in a joint venture that holds the worldwide rights to the Karl
Lagerfeld trademarks, including the Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand we currently use, for consumer products
(with certain exceptions) and apparel in the United States, Canada and Mexico. We were also the first
licensee of the joint venture, having been granted a license for women’s apparel, women’s handbags,
women’s and men’s footwear and men’s apparel. We began shipping Karl Lagerfeld Paris sportswear,
dresses, women’s outerwear and handbags in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, Karl Lagerfeld Paris women’s
footwear in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and Karl Lagerfeld Paris women’s suits in the third quarter of
fiscal 2017.

In February 2016, we acquired a 19% minority interest in the parent company of the group that holds
the worldwide rights to the Karl Lagerfeld brand. This investment is intended to expand the partnership
between us and the owners of
the Karl Lagerfeld brand and extend their business development
opportunities on a global scale. The business plan for this entity includes developing its wholesale business,
expanding its outlet retail footprint and further developing out its online presence.

Licensed Products

The sale of licensed products is a key element of our strategy and we have continually expanded our

offerings of licensed products over the past 20 years.

In September 2017, we renewed our license agreements with Levi’s and Dockers for an additional
four-year term. We also recently extended through 2020 our license agreements with the National Basketball
Association and with the Camuto Group for Vince Camuto dresses.

In July 2016, we signed a three-year extension through March 2020 of our license agreement with the
National Football League. This agreement includes men’s and women’s outerwear, Starter men’s and
women’s outerwear, men’s and women’s lifestyle apparel, Hands High men’s and women’s lifestyle apparel,
and Touch by Alyssa Milano women’s lifestyle apparel.

In February 2016, we expanded our relationship with Tommy Hilfiger through a license agreement for
Tommy Hilfiger womenswear in the United States and Canada. This license for women’s sportswear,
dresses, suit separates, performance and denim is in addition to our existing Tommy Hilfiger licenses for
men’s and women’s outerwear and luggage. This Tommy Hilfiger womenswear license agreement has an
initial term of five years and a renewal term of four years. Macy’s is the principal retailer of Tommy
Hilfiger in the United States and women’s sportswear continues to be a Macy’s exclusive offering. We
believe Tommy Hilfiger is a classic American lifestyle brand. We intend to leverage our market expertise to
help build sales of Tommy Hilfiger women’s apparel. We sell Tommy Hilfiger dresses, women’s suit
separates, women’s performance wear, jeans and luggage. Women’s performance wear and women’s suits
began shipping during the third quarter of fiscal 2017.

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

Licensing of Proprietary Brands

As we have increased our portfolio of proprietary brands, we have licensed these brands in new
categories. We began licensing Andrew Marc, Vilebrequin and G.H. Bass in selected categories after
acquiring these brands in 2008, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Our licensing program has significantly
increased as a result of owning the Donna Karan and DKNY brands.

We currently license the DKNY brand for a broad array of products including fragrance, watches,
hosiery, intimates, eyewear, children’s clothing, home furnishings, sleepwear and men’s tailored clothing. We
recently licensed DKNY and Donna Karan men’s and women’s apparel and accessories in China pursuant
to a long-term license agreement with a joint venture of which we are a 49% owner. We also recently signed
license agreements for the DKNY brand in North America for men’s sportswear, men’s dress shirts, ties,
small leather goods, men’s belts, fashion jewelry and children’s apparel. In addition, we entered into a license
agreement for the DKNY and Donna Karan brands in North America for women’s belts. We intend to
focus on expanding licensing opportunities for the DKNY and Donna Karan brands. We believe that we
can capitalize on significant, untapped global licensing potential for these brands in a number of categories.

We license G.H. Bass for the wholesale distribution of men’s and women’s footwear, men’s sportswear,

men’s and boy’s tailored clothing, men’s socks, men’s accessories and women’s hosiery.

Vilebrequin has entered into licenses for watches and sunglasses.

We currently license the Andrew Marc brand for men’s tailored clothing and men’s footwear.

Segments

We report based on two segments: wholesale operations and retail operations.

The wholesale operations segment includes sales of products under brands licensed by us from third
parties, as well as sales of products under our own brands and private label brands. Wholesale sales and
revenues from license agreements related to the DKI, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Vilebrequin businesses
are included in the wholesale operations segment.

The retail operations segment consists primarily of our Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY retail
stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores, as well as a limited number of Calvin Klein
Performance and Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores. Sales through our owned websites are also included in the
retail operations segment.

See Note K to our Consolidated Financial Statements for financial information with respect to these

segments.

Competitive Strengths

We believe that our broad portfolio of high-profile brands combined with our extensive distribution
relationships position us for growth. We intend to capitalize on the following competitive strengths in order
to expand our position as an all-season diversified apparel company:

Broad portfolio of recognized brands.

In an environment of rapidly changing consumer fashion trends,
we benefit from a balanced mix of over 40 licensed and proprietary brands anchored by five global power
brands: DKNY, Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger and Karl Lagerfeld Paris. We believe we are a
licensee of choice for well-known brands, as demonstrated by our partnerships with such brands as Calvin
Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Karl Lagerfeld Paris, Levi’s, Dockers, Kenneth Cole, Cole Haan and Guess?, that
have built a loyal following of both fashion-conscious consumers and retailers who desire high quality, well
designed products. We have selectively added the licensing rights to premier brands in women’s, men’s and
team sports categories catering to a wide range of customers. In addition to our licensed brands, we own a
number of proprietary brands, including DKNY, Donna Karan, Vilebrequin, Eliza J, Jessica Howard, G.H.
Bass, Andrew Marc and Marc New York. Our experience in developing and acquiring licensed brands and
proprietary labels, as well as our reputation for producing high quality, well-designed apparel, has led major
department stores and retailers to select us as a designer and manufacturer for their own private label
programs.

We currently market apparel and other products under, among others, the following licensed and

proprietary brand names:

Diversified distribution base. We market our products at multiple price points and across multiple
channels of distribution, allowing us to provide products to a broad range of consumers. Our products are

sold to approximately 2,400 customers, including a cross section of retailers such as Macy’s, Hudson’s Bay
Company, including their Lord & Taylor and Saks Fifth Avenue divisions, Dillard’s, Nordstrom, JC Penney,
Ross Stores, Burlington Coat Factory, and TJX Companies, as well as membership clubs such as Costco
and Sam’s Club We have also increased sales to pure play online retail partners such as Amazon and
Fanatics. Our strong relationships with retailers have been established through many years of personal
customer service and adherence to meeting or exceeding retailer expectations.

In addition to selling our products through a diverse range of other retailers, we also have our own
retail channel. While we continue to believe that this represents an important form of diversification for us,
and can provide a profitable distribution channel for our proprietary brands, we also recognize that the
retail landscape continues to evolve, and we are changing our retail strategy to regain profitability in this
segment going forward. We are in the process of executing a turn-around of this segment of our business,
including the termination and renegotiation of long-term leases as they come up for renewal, overall cost
cutting, improved merchandising strategies and re-purposing certain stores for our Karl Lagerfeld Paris or
DKNY brands.

Superior design, sourcing and quality control. Our in-house design and merchandising teams design
substantially all of our licensed, proprietary and private label products. Our designers work closely with our
licensors and private label customers to create designs and styles that represent the look they want. We have
a network of worldwide suppliers that allows us to negotiate competitive terms without relying on any
single vendor. In addition, we employ a quality control team and a sourcing group in China to ensure the
quality of our products. We believe we have developed a significant customer following and positive
reputation in the industry as a result of our design capabilities, sourcing expertise, on-time delivery and high
standards of quality control.

Leadership position in the wholesale business. As one of the largest wholesalers of outerwear, dresses
and sportswear, we are widely recognized within the apparel industry for our high-quality and well-designed
products. Our expertise and reputation in designing, manufacturing and marketing apparel have enabled us
to build strong customer relationships and to become one of the leading dress and sportswear suppliers in
the United States over the past several years. We have also expanded into women’s performance wear and
other apparel categories, as well as to non-apparel categories such as handbags, footwear, small leather
goods, cold weather accessories and luggage.

Experienced management

team. Our executive management

team has worked together for a
significant period of time and has extensive experience in the apparel industry. Morris Goldfarb, our
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, has been with us for over 40 years. Sammy Aaron, our Vice
Chairman and President, joined us in 2005 when we acquired Marvin Richards, Wayne S. Miller, our Chief
Operating Officer, has been with us for 20 years, Neal S. Nackman, our Chief Financial Officer, has been
with us for almost 15 years and Jeffrey Goldfarb, our Executive Vice President, has been with us for over
15 years. Our leadership team has demonstrated experience in successfully acquiring, managing, integrating
and positioning new businesses having completed nine acquisitions and several joint ventures over the last
thirteen years, while also adding numerous new licenses and licensed products.

Growth Strategy

Our goal is to continue to expand our position as an all-season diversified apparel and accessories
company with a broad portfolio of brands that we offer in multiple channels of retail distribution through
the following growth strategies:

Execute diversification initiatives. We are continually seeking opportunities to produce products for all
seasons. Over the past five years we have diversified through the acquisition and licensing of well-known
brands. We have initiated the following key diversification efforts:

•

In December 2016, we acquired DKI, which we believe owns some of the world’s most iconic and
recognizable power brands, including DKNY and Donna Karan. The acquisition of DKI fits
squarely into our strategy to diversify and expand our business. We intend to focus on the
expansion of the DKNY brand, while also re-establishing Donna Karan and other associated
brands. We have re-launched Donna Karan as an aspirational luxury brand that is priced above
DKNY and targeted to fine department stores globally. We believe that we can also capitalize on

significant, untapped global licensing potential in a number of categories. We plan to leverage our
demonstrated ability to drive organic growth, identify and integrate acquisitions and develop
talent throughout the organization to maximize the potential of the DKNY and Donna Karan
brands.

•

In February 2016, we expanded our relationship with Tommy Hilfiger through a new license for
womenswear which includes sportswear, suit separates, dresses, performance wear and denim.
These categories are in addition to our other licenses for Tommy Hilfiger dresses, men’s and
women’s outerwear and luggage. We believe that Tommy Hilfiger is a classic American lifestyle
brand. We intend to leverage our market expertise to help build sales of Tommy Hilfiger women’s
apparel.

In February 2016, we expanded our partnership with respect to the Karl Lagerfeld brand through
the acquisition of an approximately 19% minority interest in the parent company of the group
that holds the worldwide rights to the Karl Lagerfeld brand. In June 2015, we entered into a joint
venture pursuant to which we acquired a 49% ownership interest in an entity that holds brand
rights to the Karl Lagerfeld trademarks,
including the Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand that we
currently use, for consumer products (with certain exceptions) and apparel in the United States,
Canada and Mexico. We were also the first licensee of the joint venture, having been granted a
license for women’s apparel, women’s handbags, women’s and men’s footwear, and men’s apparel.

• We have continually expanded our relationship with Calvin Klein, our most important license
relationship. Initially, we had licenses for Calvin Klein men’s and women’s outerwear. Between
2005 and 2013, we added licenses for women’s suits, dresses, women’s performance wear, women’s
better sportswear, men’s and women’s swimwear, women’s handbags and small leather goods and
luggage, as well as to operate Calvin Klein Performance retail stores in the United States. In
March 2014, the term of each of our Calvin Klein license agreements was extended to
December 31, 2023.

Partnering to increase business.

In growing our business, we seek to join forces with partners that can

best help us achieve increased sales. For example,

•

In March 2017, we entered into an agreement with Macy’s under which Macy’s serves, since
February 2018, as the exclusive U.S. department store for sales of DKNY women’s apparel and
accessories. Under the agreement, Macy’s has the exclusive rights to sell DKNY women’s apparel,
including women’s sportswear, dresses, suit separates, women’s performance wear, denim,
swimwear and outerwear, handbags and women’s shoes, as well as men’s swimwear and outerwear
and luggage in all Macy’s locations and on Macys.com. The agreement also plans for increased
and enhanced DKNY shop-in-shops in many Macy’s stores. G-III and Macy’s are committed to
making DKNY the premier fashion and lifestyle brand. Products outside the exclusive categories
and products distributed by DKNY’s various licensees under other categories will continue to be
sold to department stores, including Macy’s.

Grow our apparel business through power brands. We have been a leader in the apparel business for
many years and believe we can continue to grow our apparel business that is anchored by five power brands.
Specifically, our Calvin Klein businesses benefit from Calvin Klein’s strong brand awareness and loyalty
among consumers. Most recently, we acquired the Donna Karan business, including the DKNY brand, and
added licenses for womenswear, outerwear and dresses under the Tommy Hilfiger brand. We are also
developing Karl Lagerfeld Paris into an additional power brand sold by us.

Grow our licensing business. As we have increased our portfolio of proprietary brands, we have
licensed these brands in new categories. We began licensing Vilebrequin and G.H. Bass in selected categories
after acquiring these brands in 2012 and 2013, respectively. We expect to significantly increase our licensing
program as a result of our ownership of the Donna Karan and DKNY brands. Donna Karan and DKNY
are two of the world’s most iconic and recognizable power brands. We believe that we can capitalize on
significant, untapped global licensing potential in a number of men’s categories, as well as in home and
jewelry. G-III intends to grow royalty streams through expansion of additional categories with existing
Donna Karan and DKNY licensees, as well as new categories with new licensees. We also plan to continue
seeking licensing opportunities for other brands we own such as G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Vilebrequin.
Add new product categories. We have been able to leverage our expertise and experience in the apparel
business, our relationships with our licensors and our sourcing capabilities to expand our licenses to new
product categories such as dresses, sportswear, women’s suits, women’s performance wear, footwear and
men’s and women’s swimwear. We expanded our licenses with Calvin Klein beyond apparel categories to
include women’s handbags, small leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage. In addition, we
added luggage to the products we sell under the Tommy Hilfiger brand and added swimwear, resort wear
and related accessories as a result of our acquisition of Vilebrequin. Our acquisition of G.H. Bass added
footwear to our product mix. We will attempt to expand our distribution of products in these and other
categories under licensed brands, our own brands, including the recently acquired Donna Karan brands,
and private label brands.

Products — Development and Design

G-III designs, manufactures and markets women’s and men’s apparel at a wide range of retail price
points. Our product offerings primarily include outerwear, dresses, sportswear, swimwear, women’s suits and
women’s performance wear. We also market footwear and accessories including women’s handbags, small
leather goods, cold weather accessories and luggage.

G-III’s licensed apparel consists of both women’s and men’s products in a broad range of categories.
See “Business — Licensing.” Our strategy is to seek licenses that will enable us to offer a range of products
targeting different price points and different distribution channels. We also offer a wide range of products
under our own proprietary brands.

We work with a diversified group of retail chains, such as Costco, Christopher A. Banks, Express,
Harley Davidson, JC Penney and Ross Stores in developing product lines that are sold under their private
label programs. Our design teams collaborate with our customers to produce custom-made products for
department and specialty chain stores. Store buyers may provide samples to us or may select styles already
available in our showrooms. We believe we have established a reputation among these buyers for our ability
to produce high quality product on a reliable, expeditious and cost-effective basis.

Our in-house designers are responsible for the design and look of our licensed, proprietary and private
label products. We work closely with our licensors to create designs and styles for each of our licensed
brands. Licensors generally must approve products to be sold under their brand names prior to production.
We maintain a global pulse on styles, using trend services and color services to enable us to quickly respond
to style changes in the apparel industry. Our experienced design personnel and our focused use of outside
services enable us to incorporate current trends and consumer preferences in designing new products and
styles.

Our design personnel meet regularly with our sales and merchandising departments, as well as with the
design and merchandising staffs of our licensors, to review market trends, sales results and the popularity of
our latest products. In addition, our representatives regularly attend trade and fashion shows and shop at
fashion forward stores in the United States, Europe and the Far East for inspiration. Our designers present
sample items along with their evaluation of the styles expected to be in demand in the United States. We
also seek input from selected customers with respect to product design. We believe that our sensitivity to the
needs of retailers, coupled with the flexibility of our production capabilities and our continual monitoring
of the retail market, enables us to modify designs and order specifications in a timely fashion.

Wholesale Operations

Our wholesale operations segment includes sales of products licensed by us from third parties, as well
as sales of products under our own proprietary brands and private label brands. Revenues from our

wholesale operations accounted for 83.0% of our net sales in fiscal 2018 compared to 81.0% of our net sales
in fiscal 2017 and 79.1% of our net sales in fiscal 2016. Revenues from the wholesale operations of DKI are
included for the last two months of fiscal 2017 and all of fiscal 2018.

Licensed Products

The sale of licensed products is a key element of our strategy and we have continually expanded our
offerings of licensed products for more than 20 years. In September 2017, we renewed our license
agreements with Levi’s and Dockers for an additional four-year term. We also recently extended our license
agreements with the National Basketball Association and for Vince Camuto dresses through 2020. In
July 2016, we signed a three-year extension through March 2020 of our license agreement with the National
Football League. We expanded our relationship with Tommy Hilfiger to include a license for womenswear
in February 2016.

The following table sets forth, for each of our principal licenses, the date on which the current term

ends and the date on which any potential renewal term ends.

* Discussions in process

Under our license agreements, we are generally required to achieve minimum net sales of licensed
products, pay guaranteed minimum royalties, make specified royalty and advertising payments (usually
based on a percentage of net sales of licensed products), and receive prior approval of the licensor as to all
design and other elements of a product prior to production. License agreements also may restrict our ability
to enter into other license agreements for competing products or acquire businesses that produce competing
products without the consent of the licensor. If we do not satisfy any of these requirements or otherwise
fail to meet our obligations under a license agreement, a licensor usually will have the right to terminate our
license. License agreements also typically restrict our ability to assign or transfer the agreement without the
prior written consent of a licensor and generally provide that a change in control, including as a result of
the acquisition of us by another company, is considered to be a transfer of the license agreement that would
give a licensor the right to terminate the license unless it has approved the transaction.

Our ability to renew the current term of a license agreement may be subject to the discretion of the
licensor or to attaining minimum sales and/or royalty levels and to our compliance with the provisions of
the agreement. We believe that brand owners are looking to consolidate the number of licensees they engage
to develop product and to choose licensees who have a successful track record of developing brands. We
continue to seek other opportunities to enter into license agreements in order to expand our product
offerings under well-known labels and broaden the markets that we serve.

Proprietary Brands

Dating back to the beginning of our company, G-III has sold apparel under our own proprietary
brands. Over the years, we developed or acquired brands such as G-III Sports by Carl Banks, Eliza J,
Jessica Howard and Andrew Marc. We acquired G.H. Bass, a well-known heritage brand, and Vilebrequin,
which provides us with a premier brand selling status products worldwide. Most recently, we acquired DKI,
which owns Donna Karan and DKNY, two of the world’s most iconic and recognizable power brands.

As we have increased our portfolio of proprietary brands, we have licensed these brands in a growing
group of categories. We began licensing Andrew Marc, Vilebrequin and G.H. Bass in selected categories
after acquiring these brands in 2008, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Our licensing program has significantly
increased as a result of owning the Donna Karan and DKNY brands.

Donna Karan and DKNY

The DKI business has a portfolio of some of the world’s most iconic fashion brands, including DKNY
and Donna Karan. First launched in 1984, DKI designs, sources, markets, retails, and distributes
collections of women’s and men’s clothing, sportswear, accessories and shoes under the DKNY and Donna
Karan brand names.

Based on Donna Karan’s and DKNY’s significant brand equity, we believe there are opportunities to
expand existing categories, launch new initiatives and develop a strong licensing and distribution base. We
believe that the DKNY brand has the potential for significant growth. In addition, other areas for growth
include the relaunch of Donna Karan Collection, as well as increased licensing revenues. We expect sales
growth across multiple categories, led by sportswear, jeans and footwear.

The distribution agreement we signed with Macy’s in March 2017 for DKNY provides us with the
opportunity to distribute through Macy’s retail network a total wardrobe for a woman’s active, modern
lifestyle. Products developed reflect
the DKNY brand DNA and emphasize a strong price-value
relationship. We believe that DKNY has the potential to be the premier fashion and lifestyle brand.

Products outside of women’s apparel and accessories and all products distributed by DKNY’s various
licensees will continue to be sold to a broad range of department stores, including Macy’s. G-III will also
maintain DKNY’s agreements with international brand partners and distributors outside of the United
States.

We believe that the Donna Karan brand offers significant growth potential. We re-launched Donna
Karan as an aspirational luxury brand that is priced above DKNY and targeted to fine department stores
located in the United States, such as Lord & Taylor, Dillard’s, Bloomingdales, Saks Fifth Avenue and
Nordstrom, as well as, fine department stores overseas, such as Harvey Nichols in the UK.

We currently license the DKNY brand for a broad array of products including fragrance, watches,
hosiery, intimates, eyewear, children’s clothing, home furnishings, sleepwear and men’s tailored clothing. We
have strong relationships with category leading license partners, including Estee Lauder, Fossil, PVH Corp.
(“PVH”) and Hanesbrands. We recently licensed DKNY and Donna Karan men’s and women’s apparel and
accessories in China pursuant to a long-term license agreement with a joint venture of which we are a 49%
owner. We also recently signed license agreements for the DKNY brand in North America for men’s
sportswear, men’s dress shirt, ties, small leather goods, men’s belts, fashion jewelry and children’s apparel, as
well as a license agreement in North America for the DKNY and Donna Karan brands for women’s belts
and cold weather accessories. We intend to focus on the expansion of licensing opportunities for the DKNY
brand, while also re-establishing Donna Karan and other associated brands. We believe there is untapped
global licensing potential in several men’s categories, as well as home and jewelry. G-III intends to grow
royalty streams through expansion of additional categories with existing licensees, as well as new categories
with new licensees.

The acquisition of DKI also strengthened our online retail channels and brick-and-mortar store base.
We believe there are significant opportunities to focus and enhance the DKNY and Donna Karan websites,
prudently expand retail stores over the long term, including through conversion of stores within the existing
G-III retail base, and capitalize on industry relationships to ensure premium placement for certain product
categories in department and other retail stores nationwide. The distribution agreement we signed with
Macy’s provides us with the opportunity to bring together DKNY’s remarkable global brand recognition
and Macy’s footprint as one of the largest nationwide retailers.

Vilebrequin

Vilebrequin is a premier provider of status swimwear, resort wear and related accessories. Vilebrequin
sells its products in over 60 countries around the world. Vilebrequin has also licensed its brand for the
wholesale distribution of watches and sunglasses. We believe that Vilebrequin has the potential to
significantly develop its distribution network worldwide and expand its product offerings. A majority of
Vilebrequin’s current revenues are derived from sales in Europe and the United States. As of January 31,
2018, Vilebrequin products were distributed through 91 company-operated stores, plus e-commerce websites
in each of Europe and the United States, as well as through 66 franchised locations and select wholesale
distribution.

Vilebrequin’s iconic designs and reputation are linked to its French Riviera heritage arising from its
founding in St. Tropez over forty years ago. Vilebrequin’s men’s swimwear, which accounts for the majority
of its sales, is known for its exclusive prints, wide range of colors, attention to detail, fabric quality and
well-designed cut. In addition to swimwear, Vilebrequin sells a line of resort wear products, including shirts,
T-shirts, Bermuda shorts and trousers, and related accessories, including hats, beach bags, beach towels,
shoes, sunglasses and watches. Vilebrequin also offers a collection of women’s swimwear and resort wear.
We believe that Vilebrequin is a powerful brand. We plan to continue adding more company operated and
franchised retail locations and increase our wholesale distribution of Vilebrequin product throughout the
world, as well as develop the business beyond its heritage in men’s swimwear, resort wear and related
accessories.

Retail Operations

We are a national retailer of outerwear, apparel, footwear and accessories in the United States. As of
January 31, 2018, our retail operations segment consisted of 367 leased retail stores, of which 165 are stores
operated under our Wilsons Leather name, 139 are stores operated under our G.H. Bass brand, 51 stores

are operated under our DKNY brand, 8 stores are operated under the licensed Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand
and 4 stores are operated under the licensed Calvin Klein Performance brand. Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass,
DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris each operate their own online store.

Substantially all of our Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY stores are operated as outlet stores
and located in larger outlet centers. Wilsons Leather stores average approximately 3,605 square feet, G.H.
Bass stores average approximately 5,887 square feet and DKNY stores average approximately 3,686 square
feet. Given the current retail environment, we are focusing on turning around our retail business by not
renewing long-term leases as they come up for renewal if we are unable to satisfactorily renegotiate the
terms of those leases. In addition, we are implementing cost-cutting initiatives, revising our merchandising
strategy and repurposing certain Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass stores for the Karl Lagerfeld Paris or
DKNY brands. We intend to continue our program of door count reduction and to increase the efficiency
and productivity of our retail operations.

At the beginning of fiscal 2018, we operated 411 retail stores across our Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass,
DKNY, Karl Lagerfeld Paris and Calvin Klein Performance brands. At January 31, 2018, the store count
for these brands had decreased to 367 locations. We expect to further reduce the number of stores and
anticipate closing approximately 65 to 70 stores by the end of fiscal 2019.

Our Wilsons Leather retail stores primarily sell men’s and women’s outerwear and accessories.
Outerwear sold in our Wilsons Leather stores includes both products sold to us by G-III’s wholesale
operations segment, as well as products sourced by us. Accessories are purchased from third parties. Our
G.H. Bass stores offer casual and dress shoes for men and women under our G.H. Bass brand. Most of our
G.H. Bass stores also carry apparel under its brand for men and women, including tops, bottoms and
outerwear, as well as accessories such as handbags, wallets, belts and travel gear. We sell G.H. Bass products
through outlet stores located in the United States. Our DKNY stores offer a large range of products
including sportswear, dresses, suit separates, outerwear, handbags, footwear, intimates, sleepwear, hosiery,
watches and eyewear. Merchandise is shipped from our main Brooklyn Park, Minnesota distribution center,
as well as four regional distribution centers, to replenish stores as needed with key styles and to build
inventory for the peak holiday selling season.

platforms

own web

Our sales of apparel on e-commerce websites continue to increase. Our e-commerce business consists of
our
at www.dkny.com, www.donnakaran.com, www.wilsonsleather.com,
www.ghbass.com, www.vilebrequin.com and www.andrewmarc.com. We are building an e-commerce team
to help us expand our online opportunities going forward. We also sell our Karl Lagerfeld Paris products on
its website, www.karllagerfeldparis.com. We sell our licensed products over the web through retail partners
such as Macys.com and Nordstrom.com, each of which has a significant online business. We have also
increased sales to pure play online retail partners such as Amazon and Fanatics. We continue to develop
additional marketing initiatives over the Internet, our web sites and social media to increase our
e-commerce presence.

Revenues from our retail operations, before intercompany eliminations, accounted for 17.0% of our net
sales in fiscal 2018 compared to 19.0% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and 20.9% of our net sales in fiscal
2016. Revenues from DKNY’s retail operations are included for the last two months of fiscal 2017 and all
of fiscal 2018.

Manufacturing and Sourcing

G-III wholesale operations and retail operations segments arrange for the production of products from
independent manufacturers located primarily in China and, to a lesser extent, in Vietnam, Indonesia,
Jordan, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, and Central and South America. Vilebrequin’s
products are manufactured in Bulgaria, Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey, China and Romania. A small portion of
our garments is manufactured in the United States.

We currently have representative offices in Hangzhou, Nanjing, Qingdao and Dongguan, China, as
well as in Vietnam and Indonesia. These offices act as our liaison with manufacturers in the Far East. As of
January 31, 2018, we had 435 employees in these representative offices.

G-III’s headquarters provides these liaison offices with production orders stating the quantity, quality,
delivery time and types of garments to be produced. The personnel in our liaison offices assist in the
negotiation and placement of orders with manufacturers. In allocating production among independent
suppliers, we consider a number of criteria, including, but not limited to, quality, availability of production
capacity, pricing and ability to meet changing production requirements.

To facilitate better service for our customers and accommodate the volume of manufacturing in the
Far East, we also have a subsidiary in Hong Kong. Our Hong Kong subsidiary supports third party
production of products on an agency fee basis. Our Hong Kong office acts as an agent for substantially all
of our production. Our China and Hong Kong offices monitor production at manufacturers’ facilities to
ensure quality control, compliance with our specifications and timely delivery of finished garments to our
distribution facilities and, in some cases, direct to our customers. At January 31, 2018, we had 57 employees
in our Hong Kong office.

In connection with the foreign manufacture of our products, manufacturers purchase raw materials
including fabric, wool, leather and other submaterials (such as linings, zippers, buttons and trim) at our
direction. Prior to commencing the manufacture of products, samples of raw materials or submaterials are
sent to us for approval. We regularly inspect and supervise the manufacture of our products in order to
ensure timely delivery, maintain quality control and monitor compliance with our manufacturing
specifications. We also inspect finished products at the factory site.

We generally arrange for the production of products on a purchase order basis with completed
products manufactured to our design specifications. We assume the risk of loss predominantly on a
Freight-On-Board (F.O.B.) basis when goods are delivered to a shipper and are insured against casualty
losses arising during shipping.

As is customary, we have not entered into any long-term contractual arrangements with any contractor
or manufacturer. We believe that the production capacity of foreign manufacturers with which we have
developed, or are developing, a relationship is adequate to meet our production requirements for the
foreseeable future. We believe that alternative foreign manufacturers are readily available.

A majority of all finished goods manufactured for us is shipped to our distribution facilities or to
designated third party facilities for final inspection, allocation, and reshipment to customers. The goods are
delivered to our customers and us by independent shippers. We choose the form of shipment (principally
ship, truck or air) based upon a customer’s needs, cost and timing considerations.

Customs and Import Restrictions

Our arrangements with textile manufacturers and suppliers are subject to requisite customs clearances
for textile apparel and the imposition of export duties. United States Customs duties on our textile apparel
presently range from duty free to 32%, depending upon the type of fabric used, how the garment is
constructed and the country of export. A substantial majority of our product is imported into the United
States and, to a lesser extent, into Canada and Europe. Countries in which our products are sold may, from
time to time, impose new duties, tariffs, surcharges or other import controls or restrictions or adjust
prevailing duty or tariff levels, as well as quota restrictions. Any action by the executive branch of the
United States government to increase tariffs on imported goods, such as the recent tariffs imposed on steel
and aluminum and the possible imposition of tariffs on goods imported from China, could adversely affect
our business. Under the provisions of the World Trade Organization (“WTO”) agreement governing
international trade in textiles, known as the “WTO Agreement on Textiles and Clothing,” the United States
and other WTO member countries have eliminated quotas on textiles and apparel-related products from
WTO member countries. As a result, quota restrictions generally do not affect our business in most
countries.

Apparel and other products sold by us are also subject to regulations that relate to product labeling,
content and safety requirements, licensing requirements and flammability testing. We believe that we are in
compliance with those regulations, as well as applicable federal, state, local, and foreign regulations relating
to the discharge of materials hazardous to the environment.

Raw Materials

We purchase substantially all of the products manufactured for us on a finished goods basis. We
coordinate the sourcing of raw materials used in the production of our products, which are generally
available from numerous sources. The apparel
industry competes with manufacturers of many other
products for the supply of raw materials.

Marketing and Distribution

G-III’s products are sold primarily to department, specialty and mass merchant retail stores in the
United States. We sell to approximately 2,400 customers, ranging from national and regional chains to small
specialty stores. We also distribute our products through our retail stores and, to a lesser extent, through
our DKNY, Donna Karan, Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass, Vilebrequin and Andrew Marc websites, the Karl
Lagerfeld Paris website, and the websites of our retail partners such as Macy’s, Nordstrom, Amazon and
Fanatics.

Sales to our ten largest customers accounted for 63.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2018 compared to
64.1% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and 63.5% of our net sales in fiscal 2016. Sales to Macy’s, which
includes sales to its Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s store chains, as well as through macys.com, accounted for
an aggregate of 22.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2018 compared to 21.8% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and
20.8% of our net sales in fiscal 2016. Sales to Macy’s will likely increase as a percentage of our net sales as a
result of our expanded license agreement with Tommy Hilfiger and sales of DKNY product to Macy’s,
including as a result of the agreement that provides Macy’s with the exclusive right to sell DKNY women’s
apparel and accessories since February 2018. The loss of this customer or a significant reduction in
purchases by our largest customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

A substantial majority of our sales are made in the United States. We also market our products in
Canada, Europe and the Far East, which, on a combined basis, accounted for approximately 12.1% of our
net sales in fiscal 2018 compared to 8.6% of our net sales in Fiscal 2017. See Note K to our Consolidated
Financial Statements for information with respect to revenues and long-lived assets attributed by
geographic region.

Our products are sold primarily through a direct sales force consisting of 285 employees at January 31,
2018. Our principal executives are also actively involved in sales of our products. Some of our products are
also sold by independent sales representatives located throughout the United States. The Canadian market
is serviced by a sales and customer service team based both in the United States and in Canada. Sales
outside of the United States are managed by 31 salespeople located in our offices across Asia. At
January 31, 2018, we employed 7 salespeople located in Canada with respect to sales of Kensie product and
Vilebrequin employed 27 salespeople, most of whom are located across Europe.

Brand name products sold by us pursuant to a license agreement are promoted by institutional and
product advertisements placed by the licensor. Our license agreements generally require us to pay the
licensor a fee, based on a percentage of net sales of licensed product, to pay for a portion of these
advertising costs. We may also be required to spend a specified percentage of net sales of a licensed product
on advertising placed by us.

Our marketing and press efforts on behalf of the DKNY and Donna Karan brands are highly focused
around communicating brand DNA and visual identity for the new evolution of DKNY and Donna
Karan. We are re-building the brand image through high impact ad campaigns that feature socially relevant
talent. We are striving to create noteworthy marketing initiatives, collaborations and image programs to
build brand awareness and bring in a new young customer. Donna Karan and DKNY will continue to
support global licensees with brand campaigns and product images to tell the brand story. We expect to
invest in digital media and storytelling for brand amplification and to establish comprehensive commercial
marketing tools that will support our global wholesale and retail channels.

Marketing efforts by Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass are primarily focused on increasing store traffic
and then converting customers to buyers. This goal is mainly accomplished through our customer relations
programs, local advertising and mall marketing promotions along with marketing initiatives through the
Internet, social media and public relations support. We continue to revitalize and build the G.H. Bass
heritage brand through products featuring new design and comfort technology, improved assortments and
additional category licenses with strong partners.

Vilebrequin’s marketing efforts have been based on continually offering new swimwear prints and
expanding the range of its products to new categories such as women’s swimwear, ready-to-wear and
accessories. Besides its traditional advertising networks (print and outdoor advertising), Vilebrequin is
seeking to develop new marketing channels through the use of digital media, product placement and public
relations. Through the growth of its network of stores, distributors and franchisees, Vilebrequin is seeking
to reinforce its position in its traditional markets, such as the United States, Europe and the Middle East,
and to develop new markets in Asia.

We advertise our Andrew Marc and Marc New York brands and are engaged in both cooperative
advertising programs with retailers and direct to the consumer. Our marketing strategy is focused on media,
public relations and channel marketing. Our media strategy for Andrew Marc includes traditional print,
such as catalogs, and outdoor advertising, as well as digital and social media initiatives.

We believe we have developed awareness of our other owned labels primarily through our reputation,
consumer acceptance and the fashion press. We primarily rely on our reputation and relationships to
generate business in the private label portion of our wholesale operations segment. We believe we have
developed a significant customer following and positive reputation in the industry as a result of, among
other things, our standards of quality control, on-time delivery, competitive pricing and willingness and
ability to assist customers in their merchandising of our products.

Seasonality

Retail sales of apparel have traditionally been seasonal in nature. Historically, our wholesale business
has been dependent on our sales to retailers from July through November. Net sales in the months of July
through November accounted for approximately 54% of our net sales in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, and
57% of our net sales in fiscal 2016. We are highly dependent on our results of operations during the second
half of our fiscal year. The second half of the year is expected to continue to provide a larger amount of
our net sales and a substantial majority of our net income for the foreseeable future.

Order Book

A portion of our orders consists of short-term purchase orders from customers who place orders on an
as-needed basis. Information relative to open purchase orders at any date may also be materially affected by,
among other things, the timing of the initial showing of apparel to the trade, as well as by the timing of
recording of orders and shipments. As a result, we do not believe that disclosure of the amount of our
unfilled customer orders at any time is meaningful.

Competition

that

import products

We have numerous competitors with respect to the sale of our products, including brand owners,
from abroad, and domestic retailers with established foreign
distributors
manufacturing capabilities. Some of our competitors have greater financial and marketing resources and
greater manufacturing capacity than we do. Our retail business competes against a diverse group of
retailers, including, among others, other outlet stores, department stores, specialty stores, warehouse clubs
and e-commerce retailers. Sales of our products are affected by style, price, quality, brand reputation and
general fashion trends.

Trademarks

We own some of the trademarks used by us in connection with our wholesale operations segment, as
well as almost all of the trademarks used in our retail operations segment. We act as licensee of certain
trademarks owned by third parties that are used in connection with our wholesale operations segment. The
principal brands that we license are summarized under the heading “Licensing” above. We own a number of
proprietary brands that we use in connection with our business and products including, among others,
DKNY, Donna Karan, Vilebrequin, Eliza J, Jessica Howard, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc, Marc New York
and G-III Sports by Carl Banks. We have registered, or applied for registration of, many of our trademarks
in multiple jurisdictions for use on a variety of apparel and related other products.

In markets outside of the United States, our rights to some of our trademarks may not be clearly
established. In the course of our attempt to expand into foreign markets, we may experience conflicts with
various third parties who have acquired ownership rights in certain trademarks that would impede our use
and registration of some of our trademarks. Such conflicts may arise from time to time as we pursue
international expansion. Although we have not in the past suffered any material restraints or restrictions on
doing business in desirable markets or in new product categories, we cannot be sure that significant
impediments will not arise in the future as we expand product offerings and introduce additional brands to
new markets.

We regard our trademarks and other proprietary rights as valuable assets and believe that they have
value in the marketing of our products. We vigorously protect our trademarks and other intellectual
property rights against infringement.

Employees

As of January 31, 2018, we had 9,071 employees, of whom 653 worked in executive or administrative
capacities, 1,527 worked in design, merchandising and sourcing, 809 worked in warehouse and distribution
facilities, 285 worked in wholesale sales, and 5,797 worked in our retail stores. Additionally, during our peak
retail selling season from October through January, we employed approximately 1,780 additional seasonal
associates in our retail stores. We employ both union and non-union personnel and believe that our
relations with our employees are good. We have not experienced any interruption of our operations due to a
labor disagreement with our employees.

G-III is a party to an agreement with a labor union. As of January 31, 2018, this agreement covers
approximately 420 of our full-time employees, most of whom work in our warehouses located in New
Jersey, and is currently in effect through November 15, 2020. Through its membership in an association,
G-III’s subsidiary, The Donna Karan Company LLC, is a party to an agreement with the same union. The
Donna Karan agreement covers approximately 27 full time employees, most of whom work in their
warehouse in New Jersey. This agreement is currently in effect through May 31, 2019.

The Donna Karan Company LLC is also a party to an agreement with another labor union. As of
January 31, 2018, this agreement covers approximately 8 of our full-time employees, most of whom work as
pattern makers in our New York offices. The agreement is currently in effect through May 31, 2019.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

The following risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating our business and the
forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any of the following risks
could materially adversely affect our business, our prospects, our operating results, our financial condition,
the trading prices of our securities and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking
statements are made in this report. Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think
are immaterial may also affect our business operations.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Wholesale Operations

The failure to maintain our license agreements could cause us to lose significant revenues and have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are dependent on sales of licensed products for a substantial portion of our revenues. In fiscal 2018,
net sales of licensed product accounted for 58.6% of our net sales compared to 60.7% of our net sales in
fiscal 2017 and 59.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2016.

We are generally required to achieve specified minimum net sales, make specified royalty and
advertising payments and receive prior approval of the licensor as to all design and other elements of a
product prior to production. License agreements also may restrict our ability to enter into other license
agreements for competing products or acquire businesses that produce competing products without the
consent of the licensor. If we do not satisfy any of these requirements or receive approval with respect to a
restricted transaction, a licensor usually will have the right to terminate our license. Even if a licensor does
not terminate our license, the failure to achieve net sales sufficient to cover our required minimum royalty
payments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. If a license contains a renewal
provision, there are usually minimum net sales and other conditions that must be met in order to be able to
renew a license. Even if we comply with all the terms of a license agreement, we cannot be sure that we will
be able to renew an agreement when it expires even if we desire to do so. The failure to maintain or renew
our license agreements could cause us to lose significant revenue and have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations.

Our success is dependent on the strategies and reputation of our licensors.

We strive to offer our products on a multiple brand, multiple channels and multiple price point basis.
As a part of this strategy, we license the names and brands of numerous recognized companies, designers
and celebrities. In entering into these license agreements, we plan our products to be targeted towards
different market segments based on consumer demographics, design, suggested pricing and channel of
distribution. If any of our licensors decides to “reposition” its products under the brands we license from
them, introduce similar products under similar brand names or otherwise change the parameters of design,
pricing, distribution, target market or competitive set, we could experience a significant downturn in that
brand’s business, adversely affecting our sales and profitability. In addition, as licensed products may be
personally associated with designers or celebrities, our sales of those products could be materially and
adversely affected if any of those individuals’ images, reputations or popularity were to be negatively
impacted.

Any adverse change in our relationship with PVH and its Calvin Klein or Tommy Hilfiger brands would have
a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We have ten different license agreements relating to a variety of products sold under the Calvin Klein
brand that is owned by PVH. We have three different license agreements for products sold under the
Tommy Hilfiger brand, which is also owned by PVH. In February 2016, we significantly expanded our
relationship with Tommy Hilfiger through a license for women’s sportswear, suit separates, performance and
denim. Our Tommy Hilfiger dress license was also incorporated into this license. Net sales of these two
brands owned by PVH constituted approximately 46% of our net sales in fiscal 2018 and approximately
44% of our net sales in fiscal 2017. Any adverse change in our relationship with PVH, or in the reputation
of Calvin Klein or Tommy Hilfiger, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our business and the success of our products could also be harmed if we are unable to maintain or enhance
the images of our proprietary brands.

Our success has also been due to the growth of our proprietary brands, their favorable images and our
customers’ connection to our brands. Our recent acquisition of DKI and its DKNY and Donna Karan
brands further expands our portfolio of proprietary brands that also includes G.H. Bass, Vilebrequin and
Andrew Marc, among others. If we are unable to timely and appropriately respond to changing consumer
demand, the value and images of our brands may be impaired. Even if we react appropriately to changes in
consumer preferences, consumers may consider our brands’ images to be outdated or associate our brands
with styles that are no longer popular. In addition, brand value is based in part on consumer perceptions on
a variety of qualities, including merchandise quality and corporate integrity. Negative claims or publicity
regarding G-III, our brands or our products could adversely affect our reputation and sales regardless of
whether such claims are accurate. Social media, which accelerates the dissemination of information, can
increase the challenges of responding to negative claims. In the past, many apparel companies have
experienced periods of rapid growth in sales and earnings followed by periods of declining sales and losses.
Our businesses may be similarly affected in the future.

If our customers change their buying patterns, request additional allowances, develop their own private label
brands or enter into agreements with national brand manufacturers to sell their products on an exclusive
basis, our sales to these customers could be materially adversely affected.

Our customers’ buying patterns, as well as the need to provide additional allowances to customers,
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Customers’ strategic initiatives, including developing their own private labels brands, selling national brands
on an exclusive basis or reducing the number of vendors they purchase from, could also impact our sales to
these customers. There is a trend among major retailers to concentrate purchasing among a narrowing
group of vendors. To the extent that any of our key customers reduces the number of its vendors and, as a
result, reduces or eliminates purchases from us, there could be a material adverse effect on us.

We have significant customer concentration, and the loss of one of our large customers could adversely
affect our business.

Our ten largest customers, all of which are department or discount store groups, accounted for
approximately 63.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2018, 64.1% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and 63.5% of our
net sales in fiscal 2016, with the Macy’s Inc. group accounting for approximately 22.2% of our net sales in
fiscal 2018 compared to 21.8% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and 20.8% of our net sales in fiscal 2016. We
expect that the percentage of our sales to Macy’s will increase as a result of our womenswear license
agreement with Tommy Hilfiger and our agreement with Macy’s that provides Macy’s with the exclusive
right to sell DKNY women’s apparel and accessories since February 2018. Consolidation in the retail
industry could increase the concentration of our sales to our largest customers. A number of large
department or discount store groups,
including Macy’s, have announced their intention to close a
significant number of stores. This reduction in store count could adversely affect our results of operations.

Other than our agreement with Macy’s relating to DKNY, we do not have long-term contracts with
any customers. Sales to customers generally occur on an order-by-order basis that may be subject to
cancellation or rescheduling by the customer. A decision by our major customers to decrease the amount of
merchandise purchased from us, increase the use of their own private label brands, sell a national brand on
an exclusive basis or change the manner of doing business with us could reduce our revenues and materially
adversely affect our results of operations. The loss of any of our large customers, or the bankruptcy or
serious financial difficulty of any of our large customers, could have a material adverse effect on us.

If we miscalculate the market for our products, we may end up with significant excess inventories for some
products and missed opportunities for others.

We often produce products to hold in inventory in order to meet our customers’ delivery requirements
and to be able to quickly fulfill reorders. If we misjudge the market for our products, we may be faced with
significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for others. In addition, weak sales
and resulting markdown requests from customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations.

Risks Relating to Our Retail Operations

Our retail operations segment may continue to incur losses if our retail turnaround strategy and/or our
execution of the turnaround strategy are unsuccessful.

The retail landscape continues to evolve and, as a result, we are changing our retail strategy in an
attempt to regain profitability in our retail operations segment. We are in the process of executing a
turnaround strategy of this segment of our business, including termination or renegotiation of long-term
leases as they come up for renewal, overall cost cutting, improved merchandising strategies for our Wilsons
and G.H. Bass store chains and re-purposing certain stores for our Karl Lagerfeld Paris or DKNY brands.
We need to successfully implement this strategy in order to regain profitability in our retail operations
segment.

We may be required to record impairments of long-lived assets or incur other charges relating to our
company-operated retail stores.

Impairment testing of our retail stores’ long-lived assets requires us to make estimates about our future
performance and cash flows that are inherently uncertain. These estimates can be affected by numerous
factors, including changes in economic conditions, our results of operations, and competitive conditions in
the industry. Due to the fixed-cost structure associated with our retail operations, negative cash flows or the
closure of a store could result in an impairment of leasehold improvements or other long-lived assets,
write-downs of inventory, severance costs, lease termination costs or the loss of working capital, which
could adversely impact our business and financial results. For example, we recorded impairments of
$10.5 million in fiscal 2017 and $6.5 million in fiscal 2018. These impairment charges may increase as we
continue to evaluate our retail operations. The recording of additional impairments in the future may have a
material adverse impact on our business and financial results.

Leasing of significant amounts of real estate exposes us to possible liabilities and losses.

All of the stores operated by us are leased. Accordingly, we are subject to all of the risks associated
with leasing real estate. Our exposure with respect to retail store leases increased as a result of our
acquisition of DKI. Store leases generally require us to pay a fixed minimum rent and a variable amount
based on a percentage of annual sales at that location. We generally cannot cancel our leases. If an existing
or future store is not profitable, and we decide to close it, we may be committed to perform certain
obligations under the applicable lease including, among other things, paying rent for the balance of the
applicable lease term. As each of our leases expires, if we do not have a renewal option, we may be unable
to negotiate a renewal on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, which could cause us to close stores in
desirable locations. In addition, we may not be able to close an unprofitable store due to an existing
operating covenant, which may cause us to operate the location at a loss and prevent us from finding a
more desirable location.

Our retail stores are heavily dependent on the ability and desire of consumers to travel and shop. A reduction
in the volume of outlet mall traffic could adversely affect our retail sales.

Substantially all of the stores in our retail operations segment are operated as outlet stores and located
in larger outlet centers, many of which are located in, or near, vacation destinations or away from large
population centers where department stores and other traditional retailers are concentrated. Economic
uncertainty, increased fuel prices, travel concerns and other circumstances, which would lead to decreased
travel, could have a material adverse effect on sales at our outlet stores. Other factors that could affect the
success of our outlet stores include:

•

the location of the outlet mall or the location of a particular store within the mall;

the other tenants occupying space at the outlet mall;

increased competition in areas where the outlet malls are located;

a downturn in the economy generally or in a particular area where an outlet mall is located;

the shift to online shopping;

•

a downturn in foreign shoppers in the United States; and

the amount of advertising and promotional dollars spent on attracting consumers to outlet malls.

Sales at our outlet stores are derived, in part, from the volume of traffic at the malls where our stores
are located. In fiscal 2018, outlet malls experienced a reduction in consumer traffic, which adversely affected
the results of our retail operations segment. Our outlet stores benefit from the ability of a mall’s other
tenants and other area attractions to generate consumer traffic in the vicinity of our stores and the
continuing popularity of outlet malls as shopping destinations. Changes in areas around our existing retail
locations, including the type and nature of the other retailers located near our stores, that result in
reductions in customer foot traffic or otherwise render the locations unsuitable could cause our sales to be
less than expected. A reduction in outlet mall traffic as a result of these or other factors could materially
adversely affect our business.

Our ability to successfully operate retail stores depends on many factors.

Our ability to successfully operate our retail stores depends on many factors, including, among others,

our ability to:

•

negotiate acceptable lease terms, including desired rent and tenant improvement allowances;

achieve brand awareness, affinity and purchase intent in the our markets;

achieve increased sales and gross margins at our stores;

hire, train and retain store associates and field management;

assimilate store associates and field management into our corporate culture; and

source and supply sufficient inventory levels.

The retail business is intensely competitive and increased or new competition could have a material adverse
effect on us.

The retail industry is intensely competitive. We compete against a diverse group of retailers, including,
among others, other outlet stores, department stores, specialty stores, warehouse clubs and e-commerce
retailers. We also compete in particular markets with a number of retailers that specialize in the products
that we sell. A number of different competitive factors could have a material adverse effect on our retail
business, results of operations and financial condition including:

•

increased operational efficiencies of competitors;

competitive pricing strategies, including deep discount pricing by a broad range of retailers during
periods of poor consumer confidence or economic instability;

expansion of product offerings by existing competitors;

entry by new competitors into markets in which we operate retail stores;

adoption by existing competitors of innovative retail sales methods; and

increased consumer preference for online apparel purchases and innovations by e-commerce
retailers such as Amazon.

We may not be able to continue to compete successfully with our existing or new competitors, or be
assured that prolonged periods of deep discount pricing by our competitors will not have a material adverse
effect on our business.

Laws on privacy continue to evolve and further limits on how we collect or use customer information could
adversely affect our business.

We collect and store customer information primarily for marketing purposes and to improve the
services we provide. The use or retention of certain customer information is subject to applicable privacy
laws. These laws and the judicial interpretation of such laws are evolving on a frequent basis. If we fail to

comply with these laws, we may be subject to fines or penalties, which could impact our business, financial
condition and results of operations. Any limitations imposed on the use of such customer information by
federal, state or local governments, could have an adverse effect on our future marketing activities.
Governmental focus on data security and/or privacy may lead to additional legislation or regulations. As a
result, we may have to modify our business with the goal of further improving data security, which would
result in increased expenses and operating complexity. To the extent our or our business partners’ security
procedures and protection of customer information prove to be insufficient or inadequate, we may become
subject to litigation or other claims, which could expose us to liability and cause damage to our reputation,
brand and results of operations.

Risk Factors Relating to the Business of Donna Karan International

Our failure to realize the benefits of the DKI business in a timely and cost-efficient manner could adversely
affect our results of operations.

The success of the DKI acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to fully realize the anticipated
benefits of adding the Donna Karan and DKNY businesses to our portfolio. Prior to our acquisition, sales
of the DKI business were decreasing, in large part due to restructuring decisions made by the prior owner.
The DKI business incurred significant net losses in the year ended December 31, 2015 and the nine months
ended September 30, 2016, as well in the two months of our fiscal 2017 year and in fiscal 2018. In addition,
at the time of the acquisition, its retail operations were experiencing declines in comparable store sales, sales
per square foot and gross margins. To realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, as well as operate
on a profitable basis, we must increase sales of DKNY and other Donna Karan products and improve the
operations of the company. Any failure to timely realize these anticipated benefits could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. These efforts will also require substantial
commitments of management time and attention and other resources, which could otherwise have been
allocated to different uses that may have been beneficial to our business.

We have entered into an exclusive arrangement with Macy’s with respect to DKNY women’s apparel and
accessories since February 2018. If this arrangement does not result in significant sales of DKNY product,
our results of operations could be adversely affected.

In March 2017, we entered into an agreement with Macy’s under which Macy’s serves, since
February 2018, as the exclusive U.S. department store for sales of DKNY women’s apparel and accessories.
We will need to sell a significant amount of DKNY product to Macy’s in order for us to realize the
anticipated benefits of our acquisition of DKI. For this acquisition to be successful, we also need to sell
DKNY product outside women’s apparel and accessories to Macy’s and other department stores and our
licensees will need to sell
licensed DKNY product to Macy’s and other department stores. Other
department stores could decide to carry lower amounts of DKNY products, or not to carry DKNY
products at all, as a result of our exclusive arrangement with Macy’s. If Macy’s is not able to sell a
significant amount of DKNY product or if other department stores reduce their amount of purchases of
DKNY product or decide not to sell DKNY product, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our indebtedness increased following the completion of the DKI acquisition, which could adversely affect us.

Our indebtedness significantly increased as a result of the acquisition of DKI. We are a party to a
$650 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, which replaced our previous $450 million
facility, and a $300 million senior secured term loan facility (“Term Facility”) (collectively, the “Bank
Debt”). In addition to the indebtedness under the Bank Debt, we also incurred $125 million of debt
pursuant to a junior lien secured note in favor of LVMH. The increase in the amount of our outstanding
debt could adversely affect us by decreasing our business flexibility and increasing our borrowing costs. The
Bank Debt contains certain restrictive covenants imposing operating and financial restrictions on us. These
covenants restrict our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries, among other things, to: incur or
guarantee indebtedness;
incur liens; pay dividends or repurchase stock; enter into transactions with
affiliates; consummate asset sales, acquisitions or mergers; prepay certain other indebtedness; or make
investments. The revolving credit facility also requires us to comply with certain financial covenants.

The operating restrictions and financial covenants in the Bank Debt may limit our ability to finance
future operations, capital needs or acquisitions or to engage in other business activities. Our ability to
comply with financial covenants could be materially affected by events beyond our control, and there can be
no assurance that we will satisfy any such requirements. If we fail to comply with these covenants, we may
need to seek waivers or amendments of such covenants, seek alternative or additional sources of financing
or reduce our expenditures. We may be unable to obtain such waivers, amendments or alternative or
additional financing on favorable terms, or at all.

If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the Bank Debt, as well as the holder of the LVMH
note, may declare all outstanding borrowings, together with accrued interest and other fees, to be
immediately due and payable and exercise remedies in respect of the collateral. We may not be able to repay
all amounts due under the Bank Debt or LVMH note in the event these amounts are declared due upon an
event of default.

Our debt level and related debt service obligations could have negative consequences, including:

•

requiring us to dedicate significant cash flow from operations to the payment of principal, interest
and other amounts payable on our debt, which would reduce the funds we have available for other
purposes;

making it more difficult or expensive for us to obtain any necessary future financing for working
capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, debt refinancing, acquisitions or other
purposes;

reducing our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our industry or market
conditions;

making us more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in our business operations or in the
economy; and

exposing us to interest rate risk given that a substantial portion of our debt obligations is at
variable interest rates.

The Term Facility was the first debt issued by us that was rated by rating agencies. Our credit rating and
ability to access well-functioning capital markets are important to our ability to secure future debt financing
on acceptable terms.

Our access to the debt markets and the terms of such access depend on multiple factors including the
condition of the debt capital markets, our operating performance and our credit ratings. The Term Facility
was the first debt issued by us that was assigned a rating by the major credit rating agencies. These ratings
are based on a number of factors including their assessment of our financial strength and financial policies.
Our borrowing costs will be dependent to some extent on the rating assigned to our debt. However, there
can be no assurance that any particular rating assigned to us will remain in effect for any given period of
time or that a rating will not be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency if, in that rating agency’s
judgment, future circumstances relating to the basis of the rating so warrant. Incurrence of additional debt
by us could adversely affect our credit rating. Any disruptions or turmoil in the capital markets or any
downgrade of our credit rating could adversely affect our cost of funds, liquidity, competitive position and
access to capital markets, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial
condition and results of operations.

DKI will be subject to additional regulatory requirements as a result of becoming part of a publicly-traded
company in the United States.

Prior to our acquisition of DKI, it was an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of a company that is
traded on the Paris Bourse. As such, DKI was not subject to the information and reporting requirements of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended and other federal securities laws, as
well as the compliance obligations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including with respect to internal
control over financial reporting, and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of

2010, including with respect to the use of so-called “conflict minerals.” Compliance with these new
obligations as a result of DKI becoming a part of G-III, a publicly-traded company in the United States,
will require significant resources and management attention, and any failure to comply could have a
material adverse effect on us.

Risk Factors Relating to the Operation of Our Business

If we lose the services of our key personnel, or are unable to attract key personnel, our business will be
harmed.

Our future success depends on Morris Goldfarb, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and other
key personnel. The loss of the services of Mr. Goldfarb and any negative market or industry perception
arising from the loss of his services could have a material adverse effect on us and the market price of our
common stock. Our other executive officers have substantial experience and expertise in our business and
have made significant contributions to our success. The unexpected loss of services of one or more of these
individuals or the inability to attract key personnel could also adversely affect us.

We have expanded our business through acquisitions that could result in diversion of resources, an inability
to integrate acquired operations and extra expenses. This could disrupt our business and adversely affect our
financial condition.

Part of our growth strategy is to pursue acquisitions. The negotiation of potential acquisitions as well
as the integration of acquired businesses could divert our management’s time and resources. Acquired
businesses may not be successfully integrated with our operations. We may not realize the intended benefits
of an acquisition, such as our acquisition of DKI. We also might not be successful in identifying or
negotiating suitable acquisitions, which could negatively impact our growth strategy.

Acquisitions could also result in:

•

substantial cash expenditures;

potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities;

the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities;

a decrease in our profit margins;

amortization of intangibles and potential impairment of goodwill;

reduction of management attention to other parts of our business;

failure to generate expected financial results or reach business goals; and

increased expenditures on human resources and related costs.

If acquisitions disrupt our operations, our business may suffer.

We conduct certain of our operations through joint ventures. There could be disagreements with our joint
venture partners that could adversely affect our interest in the joint ventures.

In August 2017, we entered into a joint venture with Amlon Capital B.V. to produce and market
women’s and men’s apparel and accessories pursuant to a long-term license for DKNY and Donna Karan
in the People’s Republic of China, including Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. We own 49% of the joint
venture, with Amlon owning the remaining 51%. In addition, in June 2015, we entered into a joint venture
agreement with Karl Lagerfeld Group BV pursuant to which we acquired a 49% ownership interest in
KLNA, an entity that holds the worldwide rights to Karl Lagerfeld trademarks, including the Karl
Lagerfeld Paris brand that we currently use, for all consumer products (except eyewear, fragrance, cosmetics,
watches, jewelry, and hospitality services) and apparel in the United States, Canada and Mexico. We may
enter into additional joint ventures in the future. These joint venture partners, as well as any future partners,
may have interests that are different from our interests that may result in conflicting views as to the conduct
of the business of the joint venture. In the event that we have a disagreement with a joint venture partner
with respect to a particular issue to come before the joint venture, or as to the management or conduct of

the business of the joint venture, we may not be able to resolve such disagreement in our favor. Any such
disagreement could have a material adverse effect on our interest in the joint venture, the business of the
joint venture or the portion of our growth strategy related to the joint venture.

We may need additional financing to continue to grow.

We incurred significant additional debt in connection with our acquisition of DKI. The continued
growth of our business, including as a result of acquisitions, depends on our access to sufficient funds to
support our growth. Our primary source of working capital to support the growth of our operations is our
revolving credit agreement which currently extends to December 2021. Our growth is dependent on our
ability to continue to be able to extend and increase our line of credit. If we are unable to refinance our
debt, we cannot be sure we will be able to secure alternative financing on satisfactory terms or at all. The
loss of the use of this credit facility or the inability to replace this facility when it expires would materially
impair our ability to operate our business.

Our business is highly seasonal.

Retail sales of apparel have traditionally been seasonal in nature. Historically, our wholesale business
has been dependent on our sales from July through November. Net sales in the months of July through
November accounted for approximately 54% of our net sales in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, and 57% of our
net sales in fiscal 2016. We are highly dependent on our results of operations during the second half of our
fiscal year. Any difficulties we may encounter during this period as a result of weather or disruption of
manufacturing or transportation of our products will have a magnified effect on our net sales and net
income for the year. In addition, because of the large amount of outerwear we sell at both wholesale and
retail, unusually warm weather conditions during the peak fall and winter outerwear selling season,
including as a result of any change in historical climate patterns, could have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations. Our quarterly results of operations for our retail business 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 conditions. The second half of the year is
expected to continue to provide a larger amount of our net sales and a substantial majority of our net
income for the foreseeable future.

Extreme or unseasonable weather conditions could adversely affect our business.

Extreme weather events and changes in weather patterns can influence customer trends and shopping
habits. Extended periods of unseasonably warm temperatures during the fall and winter seasons, or cool
weather during the summer season, may diminish demand for our seasonal merchandise. Heavy snowfall,
hurricanes or other severe weather events in the areas in which our retail stores and the retail stores of our
wholesale customers are located may decrease customer traffic in those stores and reduce our sales and
profitability. If severe weather events were to force closure of or disrupt operations at the distribution
centers we use for our merchandise, we could incur higher costs and experience longer lead times to
distribute our products to our retail stores, wholesale customers or e-commerce customers. If prolonged,
such extreme or unseasonable weather conditions could adversely affect our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

If we are unable to successfully translate market trends into attractive product offerings, our sales and
profitability could suffer.

The retail and apparel industries are subject to sudden shifts in consumer trends and consumer
spending. Our ability to successfully compete depends on a number of factors, including our ability to
effectively anticipate, gauge and respond to changing consumer demands and tastes across multiple product
lines and tiers of distribution. We are required to translate market trends into attractive product offerings
and operate within substantial production and delivery constraints. We cannot be sure we will continue to
be successful in this regard. We need to anticipate and respond to changing trends quickly, efficiently and
effectively in order to be successful. Our failure to anticipate, identify or react appropriately to changes in
customer tastes, preferences, shopping and spending patterns could lead to, among other things, excess
inventories or a shortage or products and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations.

Expansion of our product offerings involves significant costs and uncertainty and could adversely affect our
results of operations.

An important part of our strategy is to expand the types of products we offer. During the past
few years, we have added licenses for new lines of women’s suits, dresses, performance wear, sportswear and
men’s and women’s swimwear, as well as women’s handbags, small leather goods and luggage. We became a
manufacturer of swimwear, resort wear and related accessories as a result of our acquisition of Vilebrequin
and a manufacturer of footwear as a result of our acquisition of G.H. Bass. We intend to continue to add
additional product lines and expand existing brands into new product lines in the future. As is typical with
new products, demand and market acceptance for any new products we introduce will be subject to
uncertainty. Designing, producing and marketing new products require substantial expenditures. We cannot
be certain that our efforts and expenditures will successfully generate sales or that sales that are generated
will be sufficient to cover our expenditures.

Operation of our Vilebrequin business involves costs and uncertainties.

Vilebrequin sells its products through a network of both owned and franchised specialty retail stores
and shops, online stores, as well as through select wholesale distribution. Our success with Vilebrequin is
dependent, in part, on our ability to protect and enhance the reputation and status of the Vilebrequin brand
and maintain the distinctive design and construction of Vilebrequin’s key swimwear products. The use by
Vilebrequin of a specialized fabric to manufacture its swimwear products restricts the number suppliers
from whom we can source this raw material. Any disruption in the operations of these suppliers could
create an inability to manufacture Vilebrequin swimwear and supply required product to our stores or to
our wholesale customers in a timely fashion or without a significant delay, as we may not be able to quickly
find another raw material supplier that can meet Vilebrequin’s production requirements.

We are subject to the risk of inventory loss and theft.

Efficient inventory management is a key component of our business success and profitability. To be
successful, we must maintain sufficient inventory levels and an appropriate product mix to meet the
demands of our wholesale and retail customers without allowing those levels to increase to such an extent
that the costs to store and hold the goods unduly impacts our financial results. If our buying decisions do
not accurately predict customer trends or purchasing actions, we may have to take unanticipated
markdowns to dispose of the excess inventory, which also can adversely impact our financial results. We
continue to focus on ways to reduce these risks, but we cannot be certain you that we will continue to be
successful in our inventory management. If we are not successful in managing our inventory balances, our
cash flows from operations and net income may be negatively affected.

We have experienced inventory shrinkage in the past, and we cannot be certain that incidences of
inventory loss and theft will decrease in the future or that the measures we are taking will effectively reduce
the problem of inventory shrinkage. Although some level of inventory shrinkage is an unavoidable cost of
doing business, if we were to experience higher rates of inventory shrinkage or incur increased security costs
to combat inventory theft, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of materials used in our products could have a material
adverse effect on our cost of goods sold and our ability to meet our customers’ demands.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of raw materials used in our products could have a
material adverse effect on our cost of sales or our ability to meet our customers’ demands. We compete with
numerous entities for supplies of materials and manufacturing capacity. Raw materials are vulnerable to
adverse climate conditions, animal diseases and natural disasters that can affect the supply and price of raw
materials. We may not be able to pass on all or any portion of higher raw material prices to our customers.
Future increases in raw material prices could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Any raw material price increase or increase in costs related to the transport of our products (primarily
petroleum costs) could increase our cost of sales and decrease our profitability unless we are able to pass
higher prices on to our customers. In addition, if one or more of our competitors is able to reduce its
production costs by taking greater advantage of any reductions in raw material prices, favorable sourcing

agreements or new manufacturing technologies (which enable manufacturers to produce goods on a more
cost-effective basis) we may face pricing pressures from those competitors and may be forced to reduce our
prices or face a decline in net sales, either of which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of
operations or financial condition.

Our trademark and other intellectual property rights may not be adequately protected.

We believe that our trademarks and other proprietary rights are important to our success and our
competitive position. We may, however, experience conflict with various third parties who acquire or claim
ownership rights in certain trademarks. We cannot be sure that the actions we have taken to establish and
protect our trademarks and other proprietary rights will be adequate to prevent imitation of our products
by others or to prevent others from seeking to block sales of our products as a violation of the trademarks
and proprietary rights of others.

In the course of our attempts to expand into foreign markets, we may experience conflicts with various
third parties who have acquired ownership rights in certain trademarks, which would impede our use and
registration of some of our trademarks. Such conflicts are common and may arise from time to time as we
pursue international expansion, such as with the overseas expansion of our Donna Karan, DKNY,
Vilebrequin and G.H. Bass businesses. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protect
proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Enforcing rights to our intellectual
property may be difficult and expensive, and we may not be successful in combating counterfeit products
and stopping infringement of our intellectual property rights, which could make it easier for competitors to
capture market share. Furthermore, our efforts to enforce our trademark and other intellectual property
rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims and countersuits attacking the validity and enforceability of
our trademark and other intellectual property rights. If we are unsuccessful in protecting and enforcing our
intellectual property rights, continued sales of such competing products by third parties could harm our
brands and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are dependent upon foreign manufacturers.

We do not own or operate any manufacturing facilities. We also do not have long-term written
agreements with any of our manufacturers. As a result, any of these manufacturers may unilaterally
terminate its relationship with us at any time. Almost all of our products are imported from independent
foreign manufacturers. The failure of these manufacturers to meet required quality standards could damage
our relationships with our customers. In addition, the failure by these manufacturers to ship products to us
in a timely manner could cause us to miss the delivery date requirements of our customers. The failure to
make timely deliveries could cause customers to cancel orders, refuse to accept delivery of products or
demand reduced prices.

We are also dependent on these manufacturers for compliance with our policies and the policies of our
licensors and customers regarding labor practices employed by factories that manufacture product for us.
Any failure by these manufacturers to comply with required labor standards or any other divergence in their
labor or other practices from those generally considered ethical in the United States and the potential
negative publicity relating to any of these events, could result in a violation by us of our license agreements,
and harm us and our reputation. In addition, a manufacturer’s failure to comply with safety or content
regulations and standards could result in substantial liability and harm to our reputation.

The use of foreign manufacturers subjects us to additional risks.

Our arrangements with foreign manufacturers are subject to the usual risks of engaging in business
abroad, including currency fluctuations, political or labor instability and potential import restrictions,
duties and tariffs. We do not maintain insurance for the potential lost profits due to disruptions of our
overseas manufacturers. Because our products are produced abroad, mostly in China, political or economic
instability in China or elsewhere could cause substantial disruption in the business of our foreign
manufacturers. For example, in the past, the Chinese government has reduced tax rebates to factories for
the manufacture of textile and leather garments. The rebate reduction resulted in factories seeking to
recoup more of their costs from customers, resulting in higher prices for goods imported from China. This
tax rebate has been reinstated in certain instances. However, new or increased reductions in this rebate
would cause an increase in the cost of finished products from China which could materially adversely affect
our financial condition and results of operations.

Heightened terrorism security concerns could subject imported goods to additional, more frequent or
more thorough inspections. This could delay deliveries or increase costs, which could adversely impact our
results of operations.

Our expansion into the European market exposes us to uncertain economic conditions in the Euro zone.

Demand for our products depends in part on the general economic conditions affecting the countries
in which we do business. We are attempting to expand our presence in the European markets, including for
our Donna Karan, DKNY and Vilebrequin businesses. The economic situation in Europe is still recovering
and economic performance remains uncertain. There is still some concern that certain European countries
may default in payments due on their national debt obligations and from related European financial
restructuring efforts. If such defaults were to occur, or if European financial restructuring efforts create
their own instability, current instability in the global credit markets may increase. Continued financial
instability in Europe could adversely affect our European operations and, in turn, could have a material
adverse effect on us.

We have foreign currency exposures relating to buying and selling in currencies other than the U.S. dollar,
our functional currency.

We have foreign currency exposure related to foreign denominated revenues and costs, which must be
translated into U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect our
reported earnings and the comparability of period-to-period results of operations. In addition, while
certain currencies (notably the Hong Kong dollar and Chinese Renminbi) are currently managed in value in
relation to the U.S. dollar by foreign central banks or governmental entities, such conditions may change,
thereby exposing us to various risks as a result.

Certain of our foreign operations purchase products from suppliers denominated in U.S. dollars and
Euros, which may expose such operations to increases in cost of goods sold (thereby lowering profit
margins) as a result of foreign currency fluctuations. Our exposures are primarily concentrated in the Euro.
Changes in currency exchange rates may also affect the relative prices at which we and our foreign
competitors purchase and sell products in the same market and the cost of certain items required in our
operations. In addition, certain of our foreign operations have receivables or payables denominated in
currencies other than their functional currencies, which exposes such operations to foreign exchange losses
as a result of foreign currency fluctuations. Such fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could have
an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We are not currently
engaged in any hedging activities to protect against currency risks. If there is downward pressure on the
value of the dollar, our purchase prices for our products could increase. We may not be able to offset an
increase in product costs with a price increase to our customers.

Recently enacted U.S. tax legislation may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial
condition and cash flow.

On December 22, 2017, U.S. federal tax legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
(the “Tax Act”), was signed into law, significantly changing the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Among other
things, the Tax Act:

•

establishes a flat corporate income tax rate of 21% to replace current rates that range from 15% to
35% and eliminates the corporate alternative minimum tax;

creates a territorial tax system rather than a worldwide system, which will generally allow
companies to repatriate future foreign source earnings without incurring additional U.S. taxes by
providing a 100% exemption for the foreign source portion of dividends from certain foreign
subsidiaries;

subjects certain foreign earnings on which U.S. income tax is currently deferred to a one-time
transition tax;

limits the deduction for net interest expense incurred by US companies;

eliminates the federal corporate alternative minimum tax;

•

permits immediate expensing of certain capital expenditures; and

eliminates the deduction for performance-based compensation paid to our top five executive
officers, subject to the effect of a limited transition rule.

As a result of the changes to U.S. federal tax laws implemented by the Tax Act, our taxable income
could change. The Tax Act is a complex revision to the U.S. federal income tax laws with various impacts
on different categories of taxpayers and industries. The legislation is unclear in many respects and could be
subject to potential amendments and technical corrections, as well as rulemaking and interpretations by the
Internal Revenue Service or Financial Accounting Standards Board, any of which could lessen or increase
adverse impacts of the legislation. In addition, it is unclear how these U.S. federal income tax changes will
affect state and local taxation, which often uses federal taxable income as a starting point for computing
state and local tax obligations. We recognized a provisional charge against income of $6.9 million in our
fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 as a result of one-time effects of the Tax Act primarily relating to a reduction
of deferred tax assets and taxes due on foreign earnings. We continue to work with our tax advisors to
determine the full impact that the Tax Act will have on us. Notwithstanding the reduction in the corporate
income tax rate, the overall impact of the Tax Act is uncertain, and the impact of certain provisions of the
Tax Act on our financial condition and results of operations could be adverse and such impact could be
material.

We are subject to risks associated with international operations.

Our ability to capitalize on the potential of our international operations, including to realize the
benefits of our Donna Karan, DKNY and Vilebrequin businesses and successfully expand into
international markets, is subject to risks associated with international operations. These include:

•

the burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws and regulations, including trade and labor
restrictions;

compliance with United States and other country laws relating to foreign operations, including the
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from making improper payments
to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business;

unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; and

new tariffs or other barriers in international markets.

We are also subject to general political and economic risks in connection with our international

operations, including:

•

political instability and terrorist attacks;

changes in diplomatic and trade relationships; and

general and economic fluctuations in specific countries or markets.

Changes in regulatory, geopolitical, social or economic policies and other factors may have a material
adverse effect on our international business in the future or may require us to exit a particular market or
significantly modify our current business practices.

Possible new tariffs that might be imposed by the United States government could have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s results of operations.

The President of the United States has ordered government officials to compile a list of products and
intended tariff increases on imports from China. After a required period of notice and consultation with
the appropriate parties, the list would be published and tariff increases would be implemented. Such a list
could include apparel and other items imported by us from China. China has already announced a plan to
impose tariffs on a wide range of American products in retaliation for new American tariffs on steel and
aluminum. Additional tariffs could be imposed by China in response to the President’s proposal to increase
tariffs on products imported from China. There is also a concern that the imposition of additional tariffs by
the United States, including the increases proposed for steel and aluminum, could result in the adoption of
tariffs by other countries as well. The resulting trade war could have a significant adverse effect on world

trade and the world economy. While it is too early to predict how the recently enacted tariffs on imported
aluminum and steel will impact our business, the imposition of tariffs on apparel or other items imported
by us from China could require us to increase prices to our customers or, if unable to do so, result in
lowering our gross margin on products sold. Tariffs on apparel imported from China could have a material
adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We have been audited by the Canadian Border Services Agency (“CBSA”) and are in the process of
appealing the CBSA ruling. Loss of this appeal could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

In October 2017, the CBSA issued a final audit report to G-III’s Canadian subsidiary that challenged
the valuation used by the Canadian subsidiary for certain goods imported into Canada. The period covered
by the examination is February 1, 2014 through the date of the final report, October 27, 2017. The CBSA
has requested us to reassess our customs entries for that period using the price paid or payable by the
Canadian retail customers for certain imported goods rather than the price paid by us to the vendor. The
CBSA has also requested that we change the valuation method used to pay duties with respect to good
imported in the future.

We issued a bond in the amount of CAD$26.9 million ($20.9 million) in March 2018, representing
customs duty and interest that is claimed to be owed by us through December 31, 2017. In March 2018, we
amended the duties filed for the month of January 2018 in accordance with the new valuation method. The
additional duty claimed to be owed for January 2018 was CAD$1.4 million ($1.1 million) which is under
review by the CBSA. Beginning February 1, 2018, we began paying duties in Canada on imported goods
based on the price paid or payable by the Canadian retail customers. Duties paid on the higher dutiable
value will be not be charged as an expense in our statement of operations, but will be recorded as a deferred
expense until the appeal process has concluded.

If our appeal of the audit findings is not successful, we will have to pay the duties and interest that
have been secured by the bond. This will result in a charge to our statement of operations for past duties, as
well as for the additional duties we deferred beginning on February 1, 2018 through the conclusion of the
appeal process. In addition, our loss of the appeal would result in increased duties paid in Canada on
products imported into Canada and will increase our cost of sales and decrease our profitability unless we
are able to pass higher prices on to our customers. This could have an adverse effect on our results of
operations.

If we do not successfully upgrade, maintain and secure our information systems to support the needs of our
organization, this could have an adverse impact on the operation of our business.

We rely heavily on information systems to manage operations, including a full range of financial,
sourcing, retail and merchandising systems, and regularly make investments to upgrade, enhance or replace
these systems. The reliability and capacity of our information systems is critical. Despite our preventative
efforts, our systems are vulnerable from time to time to damage or interruption from, among other things,
security breaches, computer viruses, power outages and other technical malfunctions. Any disruptions
affecting our information systems, or any delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems or in
integrating them with current systems, could have a material adverse impact on the operation of our
business. In addition, our ability to continue to operate our business without significant interruption in the
event of a disaster or other disruption depends in part on the ability of our information systems to operate
in accordance with our disaster recovery and business continuity plans.

A data security or privacy breach could adversely affect our business.

The protection of customer, employee and company data is critical to us. Customers have a high
expectation that we will adequately protect their personal information from cyberattack or other security
breaches. A significant breach of customer, employee, or company data could damage our reputation and
result in lost sales, fines, or lawsuits. Our business involves the receipt and storage of personal information
about customers and employees. The secure processing, maintenance and transmission of this information
is critical to our operations and business strategy. Despite our security measures, our information
technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breaches due to employee error,
malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach or attack could compromise our networks and the
information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen.

Because the methods used to obtain unauthorized access change frequently and may not be
immediately detected, we may be unable to anticipate these methods or promptly implement preventative
measures. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of
information could result in legal claims or
proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, disrupt our operations
and the services we provide to customers and damage our reputation, which could adversely affect our
business, revenues and competitive position. In addition to taking the necessary precautions ourselves, we
require that third-party service providers implement reasonable security measures to protect our customers’
identity and privacy. We do not, however, control these third-party service providers and cannot guarantee
that no electronic or physical computer break-ins and security breaches will occur in the future.

Our use and handling of personally identifiable data is regulated at the international, federal and state
levels. For example, the European Union adopted a new regulation that becomes effective on May 25, 2018,
called the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which requires companies to meet additional
requirements regarding the handling of personal data, including its use, protection and the ability of
persons whose data is stored to exercise certain additional rights with respect to their personal data. The
GDPR calls for privacy and process enhancements, accompanied by a commitment of resources and other
expenditures in support of compliance. We are reviewing our operations to determine our obligations under
GDPR. Violations of GDPR could result in significant penalties. The regulatory environment surrounding
information security and privacy is increasingly demanding. Privacy and information security laws and
regulations change from time to time, and compliance with them may result in cost increases due to
necessary systems changes and the development of new processes. If we fail to comply with these laws and
regulations, we could be subjected to legal risk. We are also contractually obligated to comply with certain
industry standards regarding payment card information. Increasing costs associated with information
security, such as increased investment in technology, the cost of compliance and costs resulting from
consumer fraud could cause our business and results of operations to suffer materially.

Risk Factors Relating to the Economy and the Apparel Industry

Recent and future economic conditions, including volatility in the financial and credit markets, may
adversely affect our business.

Economic conditions have affected, and in the future may adversely affect, the apparel industry and
our major customers. Economic conditions have, at times, led to a reduction in overall consumer spending,
which could have an adverse impact on sales of our products. A disruption in the ability of our significant
customers to access liquidity could cause serious disruptions or an overall deterioration of their businesses
which could lead to a significant reduction in their orders of our products and the inability or failure on
their part to meet their payment obligations to us, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations and liquidity. A significant adverse change in a customer’s financial and/or credit
position could also require us to sell fewer products to that customer or to assume greater credit risk
relating to that customer’s receivables or could limit our ability to collect receivables related to previous
purchases by that customer. As a result, our reserves for doubtful accounts and write-offs of accounts
receivable may increase.

Our ability to continue to have the necessary liquidity to operate our business may be adversely impacted by
a number of factors, including uncertain conditions in the credit and financial markets, which could limit the
availability and increase the cost of financing. A deterioration of our results of operations and cash flow
resulting from decreases in consumer spending, could, among other things, impact our ability to comply with
financial covenants in our existing credit facility.

Our historical sources of liquidity to fund ongoing cash requirements include cash flows from
operations, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings through our revolving credit facility and equity offerings.
The sufficiency and availability of credit may be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including,
without limitation, the tightening of the credit markets, including lending by financial institutions who are
sources of credit for our borrowing and liquidity; an increase in the cost of capital; the reduced availability
of credit; our ability to execute our strategy; the level of our cash flows, which will be impacted by retailer
and consumer acceptance of our products and the level of consumer discretionary spending; maintenance
of financial covenants included in our revolving credit facility; and interest rate fluctuations. Interest rates

increased in fiscal 2018 and are expected to continue to increase in fiscal 2019. We cannot predict the effect
of increasing interest rates on the availability or aggregate cost of our borrowings. We cannot be certain
that any additional required financing, whether debt or equity, will be available in amounts needed or on
terms acceptable to us, if at all.

As of January 31, 2018, we were in compliance with the financial covenants in our revolving credit
facility. Compliance with these financial covenants is dependent on the results of our operations, which are
subject to a number of factors including current economic conditions. The economic environment has at
times resulted in lower consumer confidence and lower retail sales. Adverse developments in the economy
could lead to reduced consumer spending which could adversely impact our net sales and cash flow, which
could affect our compliance with our financial covenants. A violation of our covenants could limit access to
our credit facilities. Should such restrictions on our credit facilities and these factors occur, they could have
a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

The cyclical nature of the apparel industry and uncertainty over future economic prospects and consumer
spending could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

The apparel industry is cyclical. Purchases of outerwear, sportswear, swimwear, footwear and other
apparel and accessories tend to decline during recessionary periods and may decline for a variety of other
reasons, including changes in fashion trends and the introduction of new products or pricing changes by
our competitors. Uncertainties regarding future economic prospects may affect consumer-spending habits
and could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Uncertainty with respect to consumer
spending as a result of weak economic conditions has, at times, caused our customers to delay the placing
of initial orders and to slow the pace of reorders during the seasonal peak of our business. Weak economic
conditions have had a material adverse effect on our results of operations at times in the past and could
have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the future as well.

The competitive nature of our industry may result in lower prices for our products and decreased gross profit
margins.

The apparel business is highly competitive. We have numerous competitors with respect to the sale of
apparel, footwear and accessories, including e-commerce websites, distributors that import products from
abroad and domestic retailers with established foreign manufacturing capabilities. Many of our competitors
have greater financial and marketing resources and greater manufacturing capacity than we do. The general
availability of contract manufacturing capacity also allows ease of access by new market entrants. The
competitive nature of the apparel industry may result in lower prices for our products and decreased gross
profit margins, either of which may materially adversely affect our sales and profitability. Sales of our
products are affected by a number of competitive factors including style, price, quality, brand recognition
and reputation, product appeal and general fashion trends.

If major department, mass merchant and specialty store chains consolidate, close stores or cease to do
business, our business could be negatively affected.

We sell our products to major department, mass merchant and specialty store chains. Continued
consolidation in the retail industry, as well as store closing or retailers ceasing to do business, could
negatively impact our business. Macy’s, JC Penney and Kohl’s, as well as other store chains, have announced
their intention to close stores. Bon-Ton Stores, a customer of ours for many years, has filed for bankruptcy
and may close all of its stores. Store closings could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Consolidation could reduce the number of our customers and potential customers. With increased
consolidation in the retail industry, we are increasingly dependent on retailers whose bargaining strength
may increase and whose share of our business may grow. As a result, we may face greater pressure from
these customers to provide more favorable terms, including increased support of their retail margins. As
purchasing decisions become more centralized, the risks from consolidation increase. A store group could
decide to close stores, decrease the amount of product purchased from us, modify the amount of floor
space allocated to outerwear or other apparel in general or to our products specifically or focus on
promoting private label products or national brand products for which it has exclusive rights rather than
promoting our products. Customers are also concentrating purchases among a narrowing group of vendors.
These types of decisions by our key customers could adversely affect our business.

If new legislation restricting the importation or increasing the cost of textiles and apparel produced abroad
is enacted, our business could be adversely affected.

Legislation that would restrict the importation or increase the cost of textiles and apparel produced
abroad has been periodically introduced in Congress. The enactment of new legislation or international
trade regulation, or executive action affecting international textile or trade agreements, could adversely
affect our business. International trade agreements that can provide for tariffs and/or quotas can increase
the cost and limit the amount of product that can be imported.

We cannot predict whether quotas, duties, taxes, or other similar restrictions will be imposed by the
U.S., the European Union, Asia, or other countries upon the import or export of our products in the
future, or what effect any of these actions would have, if any, on our business, results of operations, and
financial condition. Changes in regulatory, geopolitical, social, economic, or monetary policies and other
factors may have a material adverse effect on our business in the future, or may require us to exit a
particular market or significantly modify our current business practices.

The U.S. presidential administration has threatened to impose retaliatory duties against China in order
to reverse what it perceives as unfair trade practices that have negatively impacted manufacturing in the U.S.
The administration has also discussed the implementation of other taxes that would impose an additional
tax on imported goods regardless of origin. It is possible that the United States may impose new trade or
other initiatives that adversely affect the trading status of countries where our apparel is manufactured and
such initiatives could include retaliatory duties, higher tariffs or other trade sanctions. The administration
has indicated it may make modifications to international trade policy or agreements or engage in other
restrictive trade practices that may have the effect of reducing the amount or increasing the cost of
including the North American Free Trade
imported goods. Changes in existing trade agreements,
Agreement, or imposition of tariffs on our products imported from China or other countries could have a
material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

China’s accession agreement for membership in the World Trade Organization provides that member
countries, including the United States, may impose safeguard quotas on specific products. We are unable to
assess the potential for future action by the United States government with respect to any product category
in the event that the quantity of imported apparel significantly disrupts the apparel market in the United
States. Future action by the United States in response to a disruption in its apparel markets could limit our
ability to import apparel and increase our costs.

The effects of war, acts of terrorism or natural disasters could adversely affect our business and results of
operations.

The continued threat of terrorism, heightened security measures and military action in response to acts
of terrorism or civil unrest has, at times, disrupted commerce and intensified concerns regarding the United
States and world economies. Any further acts of terrorism or new or extended hostilities may disrupt
commerce and undermine consumer confidence, which could negatively impact our sales and results of
operations. Similarly, the occurrence of one or more natural disasters, such as hurricanes, fires, floods or
earthquakes could result in the closure of one or more of our distribution centers, our corporate
headquarters or a significant number of stores or impact one or more of our key suppliers. In addition,
these types of events could result in increases in energy prices or a fuel shortage, the temporary or
long-term disruption in the supply of product, disruption in the transport of product from overseas, delay
in the delivery of product to our factories, our customers or our stores and disruption in our information
and communication systems. Accordingly, these types of events could have a material adverse effect on our
business and our results of operations.

Other Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock

Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer may be in a position to control matters requiring a stockholder
vote.

As of March 28, 2018, Morris Goldfarb, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, beneficially
owned approximately 9.3% of our common stock. His significant role in our management and his
reputation in the apparel industry could make his support crucial to the approval of any major transaction

involving us. As a result, he may have the ability to control the outcome on matters requiring stockholder
approval including, but not limited to, the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all
or substantially all of our assets. He also may have the ability to control our management and affairs.

The price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly and could continue to fluctuate significantly.

Between February 1, 2015 and March 28, 2018, the market price of our common stock has ranged
from a low of $18.00 to a high of $73.93 per share. The market price of our common stock may change
significantly in response to various factors and events beyond our control, including:

•

fluctuations in our quarterly revenues or those of our competitors as a result of seasonality or
other factors;

a shortfall in revenues or net income from that expected by securities analysts and investors;

changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance or the financial performance
of our competitors or companies in our industry generally;

announcements concerning our competitors;

changes in product pricing policies by our competitors or our customers;

general conditions in our industry; and

general conditions in the securities markets.

Our actual financial results might vary from our publicly disclosed financial forecasts.

From time to time, we publicly disclose financial forecasts. Our forecasts reflect numerous assumptions
concerning our expected performance, as well as other factors that are beyond our control and that might
not turn out to be correct. As a result, variations from our forecasts could be material. Our financial results
are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those identified throughout this “Risk Factors”
section and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the documents incorporated by reference
in this Annual Report. If our actual financial results are worse than our financial forecasts, as occurred in
fiscal 2017, the price of our common stock may decline.

If our goodwill, trademarks and other intangibles become impaired, we may be required to record charges to
earnings.

As of January 31, 2018, we had goodwill, trademarks and other intangibles in an aggregate amount of
$751.4 million, or approximately 39% of our total assets and approximately 67% of our stockholders’
equity. Approximately $621.7 million of our goodwill, trademarks and other intangibles was recorded in
connection with our acquisition of DKI. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States (“GAAP”), we review our goodwill and other indefinite life intangibles for impairment annually
during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the
carrying value may not be recoverable due to factors such as reduced estimates of future cash flows and
profitability, increased cost of debt, slower growth rates in our industry or a decline in our stock price and
market capitalization. Estimates of future cash flows and profitability are based on an updated long-term
financial outlook of our operations. However, actual performance in the near-term or long-term could be
materially different from these forecasts, which could impact future estimates. A significant decline in our
market capitalization or deterioration in our projected results could result in an impairment of our
goodwill, trademarks and/or other intangibles. We may be required to record a significant charge to
earnings in our financial statements during a period in which an impairment of our goodwill is determined
to exist which would negatively impact our results of operations and could negatively impact our stock
price.

We are subject to significant corporate regulation as a public company and failure to comply with applicable
regulations could subject us to liability or negatively affect our stock price.

As a publicly traded company, we are subject to a significant body of regulation, including the
reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Global Select Market,
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of
2010.

The internal control over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may
not prevent or detect misstatements because of certain of its limitations, including the possibility of human
error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud. As a result, even effective internal controls may
not provide reasonable assurances with respect to the preparation and presentation of financial statements.
We cannot provide assurance that, in the future, our management will not find a material weakness in
connection with its annual review of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We also cannot provide assurance that we could correct any such weakness to
allow our management to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the
end of our fiscal year in time to enable our independent registered public accounting firm to state that such
assessment will have been fairly stated in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or state that we have
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of the end of our fiscal year. Discovery and
disclosure of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting could have a material
impact on our financial statements and could cause our stock price to decline.

There are significant corporate governance and executive compensation-related provisions in the
Dodd-Frank Act that have required, and continue to require, the SEC to adopt additional rules and
regulations in these areas. Our efforts to comply with Dodd-Frank requirements have resulted in, and are
likely to continue to result in, an increase in expenses and a diversion of management’s time from other
business activities. For example, we are subject to SEC disclosure obligations relating to our use of so-called
“conflict minerals” such as columbite-tantalite, cassiterite (tin), wolframite (tungsten) and gold. These
minerals are present in a number of our products.

We have incurred and will continue to incur costs associated with complying with the supply chain due
diligence procedures required by the SEC. The preparation of our conflict minerals report is dependent
upon the implementation and operation of our systems and processes and information supplied by our
suppliers of products that contain, or potentially contain, conflict minerals. To the extent that the
information that we receive from our suppliers is inaccurate or inadequate or our processes in obtaining
that information do not fulfill the SEC’s requirements, we could face both reputational and SEC
enforcement risks.

Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which additional corporate governance and
executive compensation-related provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented, the full extent of
the impact such requirements will have on our operations is unclear. The changes resulting from the
Dodd-Frank Act may require changes to certain business practices, or otherwise adversely affect our
business.

While we have developed and instituted corporate compliance programs and continue to update our
programs in response to newly implemented or changing regulatory requirements, we cannot provide
assurance that we are or will be in compliance with all potentially applicable corporate regulations. If we
fail to comply with any of these regulations, we could be subject to a range of regulatory actions, fines or
other sanctions or litigation.

stores, 139 are G.H. Bass retail stores, 91 are Vilebrequin retail stores, 51 are DKNY stores, 8 are Karl
Lagerfeld Paris stores and 4 are Calvin Klein Performance retail stores.

Most leases for retail stores in the United States require us to pay annual minimum rent plus a
contingent rent dependent on the store’s annual sales in excess of a specified threshold. In addition, the
leases generally require us to pay costs such as real estate taxes and common area maintenance costs. Retail
store leases are typically between three and ten years in duration.

Our leases expire at varying dates through 2027. During fiscal 2018, we entered into 27 new store
leases, renewed 44 store leases and terminated or allowed to expire 68 store leases. Almost all of our stores,
other than certain Vilebrequin and DKNY stores, are located in the United States. Vilebrequin has 60
stores located in Europe, 25 stores located in the United States and 6 stores located in Asia. DKNY has 43
stores located in the United States, 4 stores located in Canada and 4 stores located in Europe.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to periodic claims, investigations and lawsuits.
Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of claims, investigations and lawsuits,
asserted against us, we do not believe that any currently pending legal proceeding or proceedings to which
we are a party will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations.

Canadian Customs Duty Examination

In October 2017, the Canada Border Service Agency (“CBSA”) issued a final audit report to
G-III Apparel Canada ULC (“G-III Canada”), our wholly-owned subsidiary. The report challenged
the valuation used by G-III Canada for certain goods imported into Canada. The period covered by the
examination is February 1, 2014 through the date of the final report, October 27, 2017. The CBSA has
requested G-III Canada to reassess its customs entries for that period using the price paid or payable by the
Canadian retail customers for certain imported goods rather than the price paid by G-III Canada to the
vendor. The CBSA has also requested that G-III Canada change the valuation method used to pay duties
with respect to goods imported in the future.

On March 14, 2018, G-III Canada provided a bond to the CBSA to secure payment of the additional
duties payable as a result of the reassessment required by the final audit report. The Company issued a
bond in the amount of CAD$26.9 million ($20.9 million) representing customs duty and interest through
December 31, 2017 that is claimed to be owed to the CBSA. In March 2018, we amended the duties filed for
the month of January 2018 under the new valuation method. The additional duty claimed to be owed for
January 2018 was approximately CAD$1.4 million ($1.1 million) which is under review by the CBSA.
Beginning February 1, 2018, we began paying duties based on the new valuation method. The additional
duties paid beginning on February 1, 2018 on the higher dutiable value will not be charged as an expense in
our statement of operations, but will be recorded as a deferred expense until the appeal process has
concluded.

G-III Canada, based on the advice of counsel, believes it has positions that support its ability to
receive a refund of amounts claimed to be owed to the CBSA on appeal and intends to vigorously contest
the findings of the CBSA.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.

The selected consolidated financial data set forth below as of and for the years ended January 31, 2014,
2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, have been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. Our
audited consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, and our audited consolidated
statements of income for the years ended January 31, 2014 and 2015 are not included in this filing. The
selected consolidated financial data should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (Item 7 of this Report) and the audited
consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.

The operating results of G.H. Bass have been included in our financial statements since November 4,

2013, the date of acquisition.

The operating results of Karl Lagerfeld Paris North America BV (“KLNA”), which is 49% owned by
us have been included in our financial statements since June 8, 2015, the date of acquisition. We account for
the investments in Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V. (“KLH”), which is 19% owned by us, and KLNA using the
equity method of accounting. Our Vilebrequin subsidiary, KLNA and KLH report results on a calendar
year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year basis used by G-III. Accordingly, the results of
Vilebrequin, KLNA and KLH are and will be included in our financial statements for the year ended or
ending closest to G-III’s fiscal year. For example, for G-III’s fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, the results
of Vilebrequin, KLNA and KLH are included for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company’s retail
stores report results on a 52/53-week fiscal year.

The operating results of DKI have been included in our financial statements since December 1, 2016,

the date of acquisition.

Fabco Holding B.V. (“Fabco”) is a Dutch limited liability company formed in August 2017 that is a
joint venture which is 49% owned by the Company. This investment is accounted for using the equity
method of accounting.

All share and per share data in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been retroactively adjusted to

reflect our two-for-one stock split effected on May 1, 2015.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATION.

The following presentation of management’s discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial
condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, the
accompanying notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Report.

Overview

While our products are sold at a variety of price points through a broad mix of retail partners and our
own stores, a majority of our sales are concentrated with our ten largest customers. Sales to our ten largest
customers comprised 63.5% of our net sales in 2016, 64.1% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and 63.2% of our
net sales in fiscal 2018.

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

Segments

We report based on two segments: wholesale operations and retail operations. The wholesale
operations segment includes sales of products under brands licensed by us from third parties, as well as sales
of products under our own brands and private label brands. Wholesale sales and revenues from license
agreements related to the DKI, G.H. Bass, Andrew Marc and Vilebrequin businesses are included in the
wholesale operations segment. The retail operations segment consists primarily of our Wilsons Leather,
G.H. Bass and DKNY retail stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores, as well as a
limited number of Calvin Klein Performance and Karl Lagerfeld Paris stores. Sales through our owned
websites are also included in the retail operations segment. See Note K to our Consolidated Financial
Statements for financial information with respect to these segments.

Recent Transactions

Donna Karan/DKNY

In December 2016, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Donna Karan International Inc.
(“DKI”) from LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton Inc. (“LVMH”) for a total purchase price of
approximately $674 million, after taking into account certain adjustments. DKI owns Donna Karan and
DKNY, two of the world’s most iconic and recognizable power brands. The acquisition of DKI fits
squarely into our strategy to diversify and expand our business and to increase our ownership of brands.
We intend to focus on the expansion of the DKNY brand, while also re-establishing Donna Karan and
other associated brands. We believe that we can also capitalize on significant, untapped global licensing
potential in a number of men’s categories, as well as in home and jewelry. We plan to leverage our
identify and integrate acquisitions and develop talent
demonstrated ability to drive organic growth,
throughout the organization to maximize the potential of the DKNY and Donna Karan brands.

In August 2017, we entered into a joint venture with Amlon Capital B.V. (“Amlon”) to produce and
market women’s and men’s apparel and accessories pursuant to a long-term license for DKNY and Donna
Karan in the People’s Republic of China, including Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. We own 49% of the
joint venture, with Amlon owning the remaining 51%. The principals of Amlon were formerly executives of
Tommy Hilfiger and were instrumental in the expansion of the Tommy Hilfiger brand in China. The joint
venture will be funded with $25 million of equity to be used to strengthen the DKNY and Donna Karan
brands and accelerate the growth of the business in the region. Of this amount, we are required to
contribute an aggregate of $10.0 million to this joint venture by August 2018. Starting January 1, 2018, this
joint venture is the exclusive seller of women’s and men’s apparel, handbags, luggage and certain accessories
under the DKNY and Donna Karan brands in the territory. The joint venture commenced operations in
the second half of fiscal 2018 and was operating 13 stores as of January, 31. 2018.

The acquisition of DKI negatively impacted our results of operations in fiscal 2017 and in fiscal 2018.

We expect DKI to be profitable in fiscal 2019.

Karl Lagerfeld Paris

Licensed Products

The sale of licensed products is a key element of our strategy and we have continually expanded our
offerings of licensed products for more than 20 years. Sales of licensed products accounted for 58.6% of our
net sales in fiscal 2018, 60.7% of our net sales in fiscal 2017 and 59.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2016.

Our most significant licensor is Calvin Klein with whom we have ten different license agreements. We
have also entered into distribution agreements with respect to Calvin Klein luggage in a limited number of
countries in Asia, Europe and North America.

In February 2016, we expanded our relationship with Tommy Hilfiger through a new license agreement
for Tommy Hilfiger womenswear in the United States and Canada. This license for women’s sportswear,
dresses, suit separates, performance and denim is in addition to our other Tommy Hilfiger licenses for men’s
and women’s outerwear and luggage. The Tommy Hilfiger womenswear license agreement has an initial
term of five years and a renewal term of four years. Macy’s is the principal retailer of Tommy Hilfiger in the
United States and women’s sportswear continues to be a Macy’s exclusive offering. We believe Tommy
Hilfiger is a classic American lifestyle brand. We intend to leverage our market expertise to help build sales
of Tommy Hilfiger women’s apparel. We sell Tommy Hilfiger dresses, women’s suit separates, women’s
performance wear, jeans and luggage. Women’s performance wear and women’s suits began shipping during
the third quarter of fiscal 2017.

Retail Operations

Our retail operations segment consists primarily of our Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY retail
stores, substantially all of which are operated as outlet stores. As of January 31, 2018, we leased 367 retail
stores, of which 165 are stores operated under our Wilsons Leather name, 139 are stores operated under our
G.H. Bass brand, 51 stores are operated under our DKNY brand, 8 stores are operated under the licensed
Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand and 4 stores are operated under the licensed Calvin Klein Performance brand.
Wilsons Leather, G.H. Bass and DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris each operates its own online store. Given
the current retail environment, we are focusing on turning around our retail business by not renewing
long-term leases as they come up for renewal if we are unable to satisfactorily renegotiate the terms of those
leases. In addition, we are implementing cost-cutting initiatives, revising our merchandising strategy and
repurposing certain Wilsons Leather and G.H. Bass stores for the Karl Lagerfeld Paris or DKNY brands.
We intend to continue our program of door count reduction and to increase the efficiency and productivity
of our retail operations.

Trends

Significant trends that affect the apparel industry include retail chains closing unprofitable stores, an
increased focus by retail chains and others on expanding e-commerce sales, the continued consolidation of
retail chains and the desire on the part of retailers to consolidate vendors supplying them.

Retailers are seeking to expand the differentiation of their offerings by devoting more resources to the
development of exclusive products, whether by focusing on their own private label products or on products
produced exclusively for a retailer by a national brand manufacturer. Retailers are placing more emphasis

on building strong images for their private label and exclusive merchandise. Exclusive brands are only made
available to a specific retailer, and thus customers loyal to their brands can only find them in the stores of
that retailer.

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

Sales of apparel over the Internet continue to increase. We are addressing the increase in online
shopping by developing additional marketing initiatives over the Internet, our web sites and social media.
Our e-commerce business consists of our own web platforms at www.dkny.com, www.donnakaran.com,
www.wilsonsleather.com, www.ghbass.com, www.vilebrequin.com and www.andrewmarc.com. We are
building an e-commerce team to help us expand our online opportunities going forward. We also sell our
Karl Lagerfeld Paris products on its website, www.karllagerfeldparis.com. We sell our licensed products
over the web through retail partners such as Macys.com and Nordstrom.com, each of which has a
significant online business. We have also increased sales to pure play online retail partners such as Amazon
and Fanatics. We continue to develop additional marketing initiatives over the Internet, our web sites and
social media to increase our e-commerce presence.

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

Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Significant accounting policies employed by us, including the use of estimates, are presented in the notes to
our consolidated financial statements.

Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial
condition and our results of operations, and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex
judgments, as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently
uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates, discussed below, pertain to revenue recognition, accounts
receivable, inventories, income taxes, goodwill and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and
equity awards. In determining these estimates, management must use amounts that are based upon its
informed judgments and best estimates. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to
customer allowances and discounts, product returns, bad debts and inventories, and carrying values of
intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we
believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Goods are shipped to retailers in accordance with specific customer orders. We recognize wholesale
sales when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer, determined by us to be
when title to the merchandise passes to the customer.

We recognize retail sales upon customer receipt of the merchandise, generally at the point of sale.

Retail sales are recorded net of applicable sales tax.

Both wholesale revenues and retail store revenues are shown net of returns, discounts and other
allowances. We estimate the amount of reserves and allowances based on current and historical information
and trends. Discounts, allowances and estimates of future returns are recognized when the related revenues
are recognized.

Royalty revenue is recognized at the higher of royalty earned or guaranteed minimum royalty.

Accounts Receivable

In the normal course of business, we extend credit to our wholesale customers based on pre-defined
credit criteria. Accounts receivable, as shown on our consolidated balance sheet, are net of allowances and
anticipated discounts. In circumstances where we are aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its
financial obligation (such as in the case of bankruptcy filings, extensive delay in payment or substantial
downgrading by credit sources), a specific reserve for bad debts is recorded against amounts due to reduce
the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. For all other wholesale
customers, an allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts
receivable at the date of the financial statements, assessments of collectability based on historical trends and
an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions.

An allowance for discounts is based on reviews of open invoices where concessions have been extended
to customers. Costs associated with allowable deductions for customer advertising expenses are charged to
advertising expenses in the selling, general and administrative section of our consolidated statements of
income. Costs associated with markdowns and other operational chargebacks, net of historical recoveries,
are included as a reduction of net sales. All of these are part of the allowances included in accounts
receivable. We reserve against known chargebacks, as well as for an estimate of potential future deductions
by customers. These provisions result from seasonal negotiations with our customers as well as historical
deduction trends, net of historical recoveries and the evaluation of current market conditions.

Inventories

Wholesale inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or
net realizable value, which comprises a significant portion of our inventory. Retail inventories are valued at
the lower of cost or market as determined by the retail inventory method. Vilebrequin inventories are stated
at the lower of cost (determined by the weighted average method) or net realizable value.

We continually evaluate the composition of our inventories, assessing slow-turning, ongoing product as
well as fashion product from prior seasons. The net realizable value of distressed inventory is based on
historical sales trends of our individual product lines, the impact of market trends and economic conditions,
expected permanent retail markdowns and the value of current orders for this type of inventory. A
provision is recorded to reduce the cost of inventories to the estimated net realizable values, if required.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate
our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our
actual current tax expense, together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment
of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities,
which are included within our consolidated balance sheet.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

ASC 350 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life be tested for impairment at
least annually and are required to be written down when impaired. We perform our test in the fourth fiscal
quarter of each year, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount
of such assets may be impaired. Goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life are tested for
impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. In connection with the
change in our reportable segments and according to ASC 350, we reassessed the reporting units for
goodwill impairment purposes. We identified two reporting units, which are wholesale operations and retail
operations. Fair value is generally determined using discounted cash flows, market multiples and market
capitalization. Significant estimates used in the fair value methodologies include estimates of future cash
flows, future short-term and long-term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimates of
market multiples of the reportable unit. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future,
we may be required to record impairment charges for our goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite
life.

The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective and requires significant
judgment at many points during the analysis. In estimating the fair value of a reporting unit for the
purposes of our annual or periodic analyses, we make estimates and judgments about the future cash flows
of that reporting unit. Although our cash flow forecasts are based on assumptions that are consistent with
our plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses, there is significant exercise of
judgment involved in determining the cash flows attributable to a reporting unit over its estimated
remaining useful
life. In addition, we make certain judgments about allocating shared assets to the
estimated balance sheets of our reporting units. We also consider our and our competitor’s market
capitalization on the date we perform the analysis. Changes in judgment on these assumptions and estimates
could result in a goodwill impairment charge.

We have allocated the purchase price of the companies we acquired to the tangible and intangible
assets acquired and liabilities we assumed, based on their estimated fair values. These valuations require
management to make significant estimations and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.

The fair values assigned to the identifiable intangible assets acquired were based on assumptions and
estimates made by management using unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions about the inputs
that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available.

Identifiable intangible assets recorded as a result of our acquisition of DKI in 2016 include trademarks
having a net carrying value of $370.0 million with an indefinite life and customer relationships having a net
carrying value of $40.0 million with an estimated useful life of 17 years. We also recorded goodwill in the
amount of $211.7 million in connection with the acquisition. Goodwill was fully assigned to the Company’s
wholesale operations reporting unit as the wholesale operations reporting unit is expected to benefit from
the synergies of the combination and from the future growth of DKI. These synergies will be also
accomplished through the integration of DKI’s wholesale operations with G-III’s support functions such as
credit and collection, IT, finance, logistics, human resources, sourcing and overseas quality control.

In accordance with ASC 350, in the first step of our goodwill impairment review, we compared the fair
value of the wholesale operations reporting unit and the retail operations reporting unit to their respective
carrying values. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired
and no further testing is required. On January 31, 2018, we noted that both the fair value of the wholesale
operations reporting unit and the fair value of the retail operations reporting unit significantly exceeded
their respective carrying values. We estimated the fair value of the reporting units using a weighting of fair
values derived most significantly from the market approach and, to a lesser extent, from the income
approach. Under the income approach, we calculated the fair value of the reporting units based on the
present value of estimated future cash flows. Cash flows projections are based on management’s estimates
of revenue growth rates and earnings before interest and taxes, taking into consideration industry and
market conditions. The assumptions used for the impairment analysis were developed by management of
each reporting unit based on industry projections, as well as specific facts relating to the reporting units. If
the reporting units were to experience sales declines or be exposed to enhanced and sustained pricing and
volume pressures there would be an increased risk of impairment of goodwill for the reporting units.

Critical estimates in valuing intangible assets include future expected cash flows from license
agreements, trade names and customer relationships. In addition, other factors considered are the brand
awareness and market position of the products sold by the acquired companies and assumptions about the
period of
time the brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio.
Management’s estimates of fair value are based on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are
inherently uncertain and unpredictable.

If we did not appropriately allocate these components or we incorrectly estimate the useful lives of
these components, our computation of amortization expense may not appropriately reflect the actual
impact of these costs over future periods, which may affect our results of operations.

Trademarks having finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and measured for

impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360 — Property, Plant and Equipment, we annually evaluate the carrying value
of our long-lived assets to determine whether changes have occurred that would suggest that the carrying
amount of such assets may not be recoverable based on the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of the
businesses to which the assets relate. Any impairment would be equal to the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeded its fair value.

In fiscal 2018, the we recorded a $6.5 million impairment charge related to leasehold improvements
and furniture and fixtures at certain of our Wilsons, G.H. Bass and Vilebrequin stores as a result of the
performance at these stores. In addition, we recorded a $738,000 impairment charge with respect to
furniture and fixtures located in certain customers’ stores.

In fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a $10.5 million impairment charge related to leasehold
improvements and furniture and fixtures at certain of our Wilsons and G.H. Bass stores as a result of the
performance at these stores.

Equity Awards

All share-based payments to employees, including grants of restricted stock units and employee stock
options, are recognized in the consolidated financial statements as compensation expense over the service
period (generally the vesting period) based on their fair values. Restricted stock units that do not have

Year ended January 31, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”) compared to year ended January 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”)

Net sales for fiscal 2018 increased to $2.81 billion from $2.39 billion in the prior year. Net sales of our

segments are reported before intercompany eliminations.

Net sales of our wholesale operations segment increased to $2.45 billion from $2.01 billion in the
comparable period last year. Net sales from our DKNY and Donna Karan product lines accounted for
$250.2 million in fiscal 2018 compared to $16.6 million in fiscal 2017 when we operated the business for
only two months. The increase in net sales of our wholesale operations segment was also a result of a
$138.6 million increase in net sales of Tommy Hilfiger licensed products primarily from our denim, women’s
sportswear and women’s outerwear product categories, which were recently launched, as well as an increase
in net sales in the men’s outerwear and dresses categories. The increase in net sales was also driven by a
$85.7 million increase in net sales of Calvin Klein licensed products, primarily from dresses and women’s
performance wear, and a $34.2 million increase in net sales of Karl Lagerfeld Paris licensed products. These
increases are offset, in part, by a $38.3 million decrease in net sales of private label products and a
$15.7 million decrease in net sales of Jessica Simpson licensed products, for which the license agreement was
terminated in June 2017.

Net sales of our retail operations segment increased to $502.5 million from $474.2 million in the same
period last year. Our retail operations report on a 52/53 week fiscal year. Net sales increased by $6.9 million
as a result of fiscal 2018 containing 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks in fiscal 2017. The remainder of the
increase in net sales was due to $69.9 million in net sales in fiscal 2018 from our DKNY retail stores
compared to $12.3 million in net sales from these stores in fiscal 2017 when we only operated these stores
for two months. These increases were offset, in part, by a decrease in net sales of $27.8 million from the
G.H. Bass and $5.9 million from the Wilsons store chains. We operated 44 fewer stores as of January 31,
2018 compared to January 31, 2017. G.H. Bass same store sales decreased by 5.8% and Wilsons Leather
same stores sales decrease by 1.7% compared to the prior year. The decrease in comparable store sales for
G.H. Bass and Wilsons was impacted by declining customer traffic offset, in part, by increased transaction
values.

Gross profit was $1.05 billion, or 37.6% of net sales, for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, and
$840.9 million, or 35.2% of net sales, last year. The gross profit in our wholesale operations segment was
$804.3 million, or 32.8% of net sales, for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, and $633.6 million, or
31.3% of net sales, last year. The increase in gross profit percentage was in part the result of DKNY and
Donna Karan licensing income for which there is no associated cost of goods sold. In addition, our
wholesale segment’s gross profit was favorably impacted by improved gross profit as a result of increased
gross margin percentage from our Calvin Klein dresses product line. Our retail operations segment gross

profit percentage was 49.9% for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 compared to 43.6% for the same
period last year. This increase in gross profit percentage of our retail operations segment is due to the
increase in gross profit percentage of our G.H. Bass and Wilsons retail store chains as well as the addition
of our DKNY retail stores, which had a higher gross profit percentage than our other retail stores. The
increase in gross margin is also a result of a favorable weather during the outerwear season and less
promotional activity than the same period in the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $855.2 million in fiscal 2018 from
$704.4 million in fiscal 2017. The increased expense related to our Donna Karan business represented
$133.6 million of this increase. The remainder of the increase is primarily due to increased personnel costs
($16.7 million), facility costs ($13.3 million) and advertising costs ($4.8 million). Personnel costs increased
due to an increase in bonus accruals related to higher profitability and an increase in stock-based
compensation expense. We also incurred additional staffing costs for new product lines under our license
agreements offset by a decrease in personnel costs in our retail operations segment resulting from the
reduction in the number of our retail stores. Facility costs increased because of increased shipping, storage
and processing costs incurred at our third party warehouses. Advertising costs increased due to higher
advertising fees paid to our licensors in connection with the increase in net sales of our licensed products,
and an increase in cooperative advertising related to the increase in net sales of our wholesale operations
segment. These increases were offset, in part, by a decrease in professional fees ($7.4 million) related to fees
incurred in fiscal 2017 in connection with the acquisition of DKI.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $37.8 million in fiscal 2018 from $32.5 million in the prior
year. These expenses increased primarily because of additional depreciation and amortization expenses
incurred as a result of the acquisition of DKI. These increases were offset, in part, by depreciation not
incurred in fiscal 2018 relating to fixed assets impaired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

In fiscal 2018, we recorded a $7.9 million impairment charge. This impairment charge included (i) a
$6.5 million impairment charge related to leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures at certain of
our Wilsons, G.H. Bass and Vilebrequin stores as a result of the performance at these stores, (ii) a $738,000
impairment charge with respect to furniture and fixtures located in certain customers’ stores and (iii) a
$716,000 write-off of goodwill related to the retail operations segment as a result of the performance of the
retail operations segment. In fiscal 2017, we recorded a $10.5 million impairment charge with respect to
leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures at certain of our Wilsons and G.H. Bass stores as a
result of poor performance in these stores.

Interest and financing charges, net for fiscal 2018, were $43.5 million compared to $15.7 million for the
prior year. The increase in interest and financing charges is a result of the interest incurred with respect to
the bank loans and the note issued to the seller in connection with the acquisition of DKI and the
amortization of the capitalized debt issuance costs related to this debt. These costs were amortized over a
full year in fiscal 2018 compared to two months in fiscal 2017.

Income tax expense for fiscal 2018 was $47.9 million compared to $25.8 million for the prior year. Our
effective tax rate was 43.6% in fiscal 2018 compared to 33.2% in the prior year. This increase in our effective
tax rate is mainly a result of the provisional charges relating to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
(“TCJA”) as further discussed below and a reduced tax benefit in fiscal 2018 of $1.4 million compared to a
$3.1 million tax benefit realized in fiscal 2017 in connection with the vesting of equity awards subsequent to
the adoption of ASU 2016-09.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted a tax legislation commonly referred to as the
TCJA. The TCJA significantly changes U.S. corporate income tax laws by, among other things, reducing the
U.S. corporate income tax rate to 21% (effective January 1, 2018) and moving from a global taxation to a
modified territorial tax regime. As part of the legislation, U.S. companies are required to pay a tax on
historical foreign earnings that have not been repatriated to the U.S. and revalue its deferred tax asset and
liability positions at the lower federal base tax rate of 21%. The Company incurred income tax expense of
approximately $3.3 million as a result of the repatriation of foreign earnings and approximately $4.4 million
related to revaluation of its deferred tax asset and liability positions for fiscal 2018.

Year ended January 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”) compared to year ended January 31, 2016 (“fiscal 2016”)

Net sales for fiscal 2017 increased to $2.39 billion from $2.34 billion in the prior year. Net sales of our

segments are reported before intercompany eliminations.

Net sales of our wholesale operations segment were $2.01 billion for fiscal 2017 compared to
$1.95 billion last year. Our wholesale operations segment had $70.8 million of net sales of new Tommy
Hilfiger licensed products, including dresses, denim, women’s performance wear, and women’s suits and
sportswear product lines $35.0 million of net sales of new Karl Lagerfeld Paris licensed products, and
$16.6 million of net sales of new DKNY and Donna Karan products. The increase in net sales of our
wholesale operations division was also the result of a $43.7 million increase in net sales of Calvin Klein
licensed products and a $17.9 million increase in net sales of Ivanka Trump licensed products. These
increases were offset, in part, by a $41.8 million decrease in net sales of private label products, $27.5 million
decrease in net sales of Kensie licensed products, a $17.2 million decrease in net sales of our Andrew Marc
product lines, a $13.0 million decrease in net sales of Guess men’s and women’s licensed outerwear and a
$12.9 million decrease in net sales of Kenneth Cole licensed outerwear.

Net sales of our retail operations segment decreased to $474.2 million for fiscal 2017 from
$514.0 million in the prior year primarily as the result of a decrease of 14.2% in Wilsons’ same store sales
compared to the same period in the prior year and a decrease of 7.5% in G.H. Bass’ same store sales
compared to the same period in the prior year. These decreases are mainly the result of reduced net sales in
outerwear and cold weather products due to lower customer traffic at locations that are frequented by
international tourists, a highly promotional outlet and retail environment throughout the year and
unseasonably warm weather.

Gross profit increased to $840.9 million for fiscal 2017 from $838.6 million for fiscal 2016, with a gross
profit percentage of 35.2% in fiscal 2017 and 35.8% in fiscal 2016. The gross profit percentage in our
wholesale operations segment was 31.4% in fiscal 2017 compared to 30.9% in the prior year. This increase
was primarily the result of a more favorable product mix, as well as an increase in gross profit for the Calvin
Klein, Eliza J, Jessica Howard and Ivanka Trump product lines. The gross profit percentage in our retail
operations segment was 43.6% in fiscal 2017 compared to 46.1% in the prior year. The decrease in gross
profit percentage was the result of offering deeper discounts in order to maintain acceptable inventory levels
and increased promotional activity due to a decline in traffic.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $704.4 million, or 29.5% of net sales, in fiscal
2017 from $628.8 million, or 26.8% of net sales, in the prior year. Since December 1, 2016, we incurred
$23.8 million of selling, general and administrative expenses with respect to the acquired Donna Karan
the increase is primarily due to increased facility costs ($21.4 million),
business. The remainder of
advertising costs ($15.3 million) and personnel costs ($5.5 million), as well as professional fees associated
with the Donna Karan acquisition ($7.8 million). Facility costs increased as a result of increased shipping,
storage and processing costs incurred at our third party warehouses. Advertising costs increased due to the
increase in net sales of licensed products and cooperative advertising. We typically pay an advertising fee
and are required to participate in customer cooperative advertising pursuant to many of our license
agreements based on a percentage of net sales of licensed products. Additionally, advertising costs increased
due to an increase in advertising purchased, an increase in promotional activities at retail stores and
increased spending in e-commerce initiatives. Personnel costs increased as a result of staffing for new
product lines under new license agreements, as well as an increase in headcount to staff additional retail
stores that opened since last year. The increase in personnel costs was offset, in part, by reduced bonus
expense compared to last year.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $32.5 million in fiscal 2017 from $25.4 million in the prior
year. These expenses increased as a result of depreciation and amortization related to the increase in capital
expenditures in previous years primarily related to fixturing costs at department stores, as well as
remodeling, relocating and adding new Wilsons, G.H. Bass and Vilebrequin stores. We expect depreciation
and amortization to increase by approximately $12.0 million in fiscal 2018 as a result of the acquisition of
DKI.

In fiscal 2017, we recorded a $10.5 million impairment charge with respect to leasehold improvements,
furniture and fixtures at certain of our Wilsons and G.H. Bass stores as a result of poor performance in
these stores.

Our operating profit decreased by $91.0 million to $93.5 million in fiscal 2017 from $184.5 million in
fiscal 2016 primarily as a result of the losses in our retail operations segment. Operating profit in our
wholesale operations segment decreased by $32.6 million to $153.0 million in fiscal 2017 from

$185.6 million as a result of
the factors discussed above. This includes severance related costs of
$3.9 million, professional expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition of DKI of $7.8 million and
DKI’s wholesale operating loss of $5.5 million. Operating loss in our retail operations segment increased by
$60.2 million to $61.3 million in fiscal 2017 from $1.2 million in fiscal 2016 as a result of the factors
discussed above. This includes a $10.5 million impairment charge with respect to leasehold improvements
and DKI’s retail operating loss of $7.7 million.

Other income was $1.3 million in fiscal 2016 and primarily related to a gain with respect to the revised

estimated contingent consideration payable in connection with the acquisition of Vilebrequin.

Interest and financing charges, net for fiscal 2017, were $15.7 million compared to $6.7 million for the
prior year. The increase in interest and financing charges is a result of the additional interest incurred with
respect the bank loans and the note issued to the seller in connection with the acquisition of DKI, as well as
the amortization of the capitalized debt issuance costs related to this debt.

Income tax expense for fiscal 2017 was $25.8 million compared to $64.8 million for the prior year. The
decrease in income tax expense is primarily related to the lower pretax income in fiscal 2017. Our effective
tax rate was 33.2% in fiscal 2017 compared to 36.2% in the prior year. This decrease in our effective tax rate
is mainly a result of the $3.1 million tax benefit realized in fiscal 2017 in connection with the vesting of
equity awards subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2016-09.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Acquisition of Donna Karan International

On December 1, 2016, G-III acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of DKI from LVMH for a
total purchase price of approximately $674.4 million, after taking into account certain adjustments. The
purchase price was paid by us with a combination of (i) cash, (ii) $75.0 million of newly issued shares of
our common stock to LVMH and (iii) a junior lien secured promissory note in favor of LVMH in the
principal amount of $125 million. The cash portion of the purchase price was paid from proceeds of the
borrowings under the new financing agreements entered into in connection with the acquisition.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On December 1, 2016, our subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc. (“G-III Leather”), Riviera Sun,
Inc., CK Outerwear, LLC, Andrew & Suzanne Company Inc., AM Retail Group, Inc., The Donna Karan
Company Store LLC and The Donna Karan Company LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into an
amended and restated credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with the Lenders named therein and
with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The ABL Credit Agreement is a five-year
senior secured credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to
$650 million. We and our subsidiaries, G-III Apparel Canada ULC, AM Apparel Holdings, Inc., Gabrielle
Studio, Inc., Donna Karan International Inc. and Donna Karan Studio LLC (the “Guarantors”), are Loan
Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement.

The ABL Credit Agreement refinances, amends and restates the Credit Agreement, dated as of
August 6, 2012 as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to December 1,
2016, (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers and the Loan Guarantors (each as
defined therein) party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A., in its capacity as the administrative agent thereunder. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for
borrowings of up to $450 million and was due to expire in August 2017.

Amounts available under the ABL Credit Agreement are subject to borrowing base formulas and over
advances as specified in the ABL Credit Agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at the Borrowers’ option, at
LIBOR plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.75% or an alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime
rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the
LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus a margin of 0.25% to 0.75%, with
the applicable margin determined based on Borrowers’ availability under the ABL Credit Agreement. As of
January 31, 2018, interest under the ABL Credit Agreement was being paid at the average rate of 2.33% per
annum. The ABL Credit Agreement is secured by specified assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors.

In addition to paying interest on any outstanding borrowings under the new revolving credit facility,
we are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the ABL Credit Agreement with respect to
the unutilized commitments. The commitment fee shall accrue at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum on the
average daily amount of the available commitment.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the
Company’s ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of
assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve itself; acquire other companies; make loans,
advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. In certain circumstances, the credit agreement also
requires G-III to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined, that may not exceed 1.00 to
1.00 for each period of twelve consecutive fiscal months of holdings. As of January 31, 2018, the Company
was in compliance with these covenants.

On December 1, 2016, the Borrowers borrowed an aggregate of $40.0 million under the ABL Credit
Agreement to pay off all outstanding amounts under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay certain fees
and expenses in connection with the ABL Credit Agreement. In addition, on December 1, 2016, an
additional $230.0 million was borrowed under the ABL Credit Agreement to fund a portion of the
purchase price with respect to the acquisition of DKI.

Term Loan Credit Agreement

General

On December 1, 2016, we entered into a Credit Agreement with the lenders party thereto and Barclays

Bank PLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”).

The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for term loans in an aggregate principal amount of
$350.0 million (the “Term Loans”), which were drawn in full on December 1, 2016. We used the proceeds to
fund a portion of the purchase price with respect to the acquisition of DKI, with the remainder being used
for general corporate purposes. Also on December 1, 2016, we prepaid $50 million in principal amount of
the Term Loans, reducing the principal balance of the Term Loans to $300 million. The Term Loans and
other obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s
restricted subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”).

The Term Loan Credit Agreement permits the Company to incur, from time to time, additional
incremental term loans under the Term Loan Credit Agreement (subject to obtaining commitments for such
term loans) and other pari passu lien indebtedness, subject to an overall limit of (x) $125.0 million plus
(y) such additional amount that would cause the Company’s first lien leverage ratio not to exceed 2.25 to
1.00 on a pro forma basis. Any such incremental term loans and other pari passu lien indebtedness are
permitted to share in the Collateral described below on a pari passu basis with the Term Loans.

Maturity and Interest Rate

The Term Loan will mature in December 2022. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the
Term Loan accrues at a rate equal to LIBOR, subject to 1% floor, plus an applicable margin of 5.25% or an
alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” as published by the Wall Street Journal
from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an
interest period of one month) plus 4.25%, per annum, payable in cash. As of January 31, 2018, interest
under the Term Loan was being paid at the average rate of 6.55% per annum.

Collateral

Subject to certain permitted liens and other exclusions and exceptions, the Term Loans are secured
(i) on a first-priority basis by a lien on, among other things, our real estate assets, equipment and fixtures,
equity interests and intellectual property and certain related rights owned by us and the Guarantors (the
“Term Priority Collateral”) and (ii) by a second-priority security interest in our and the Guarantors’ other
assets (together with the Term Priority Collateral, the “Collateral”), which will secure on a first-priority
basis our asset-based loan facility described above under the caption “— Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement”.

Optional Prepayment

The Term Loans may be prepaid, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time at par
plus accrued interest and, in the case of prepayments from the proceeds of certain refinancings prior to
December 1, 2017, subject to a 1% prepayment fee. On December 1, 2016, we prepaid $50.0 million of the
outstanding balance of the loan. We paid a fee of $0.5 million to the lenders in connection with this
prepayment.

Mandatory Prepayment

The Term Loans are required to be prepaid with the proceeds of certain asset sales if such proceeds are

not applied as required by the Term Loan Credit Agreement within certain specified deadlines.

The Term Loans are also required to be prepaid in an amount equal to 75% of our Excess Cash Flow
(as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) with respect to each fiscal year ending on or after
January 31, 2018. The percentage of Excess Cash Flow that must be so applied is reduced to 50% if our
senior secured leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00, to 25% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than
2.75 to 1.00 and to 0% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than 2.25 to 1.00. As of January 31, 2018,
we were not required to make a prepayment based on excess cash flow.

Change of Control

The occurrence of specified change of control events constitute an event of default under the Term

Loan Credit Agreement.

Certain Covenants

The term loan contains covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to among other things, incur
additional debt, sell or dispose certain assets, make certain investments,
incur liens and enter into
acquisitions. This loan also includes a mandatory prepayment provision on excess cash flow as defined
within the agreement. A first lien leverage covenant requires the Company to maintain a level of debt to
EBITDA at a ratio as defined over the term of the agreement. As of January 31, 2018 the Company was in
compliance with these covenants.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement limits our and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to:

•

incur additional indebtedness;

make dividend payments or other restricted payments;

create liens;

sell assets (including securities of our restricted subsidiaries);

permit certain restrictions on dividends and transfers of assets by our restricted subsidiaries;

enter into certain types of transactions with shareholders and affiliates; and

enter into mergers, consolidations or sales of all or substantially all of our assets.

These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications. The Term Loan Credit Agreement also
contains affirmative covenants and events of default that are customary for credit agreements governing
term loans.

LVMH Note

On December 1, 2016, we issued to LVMH, as a portion of the consideration for the acquisition of
DKI, a junior lien secured promissory note in favor of LVMH in the principal amount of $125 million (the
“LVMH Note”) that bears interest at the rate of 2% per year. $75 million of the principal amount of the
LVMH Note is due and payable on June 1, 2023 and $50 million of such principal amount is due and
payable on December 1, 2023.

Based on an independent valuation, it was determined that the LVMH Note should be treated as
having been issued at a discount of $40.0 million in accordance with ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements.
This discount is being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the
LVMH Note.

In connection with the issuance of the LVMH Note, LVMH entered into (i) a subordination agreement
with Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent for the lenders party to the Term Loan Credit Agreement
and collateral agent for the Senior Secured Parties thereunder and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as
administrative agent for the lenders and other Senior Secured Parties under the ABL Credit Agreement,
providing that our obligations under the LVMH Note are subordinate and junior to our obligations under
the ABL Credit Agreement and Term Loan Credit Agreement, and (ii) a pledge and security agreement
with us and G-III Leather, pursuant to which we and G-III Leather granted to LVMH a security interest in
specified collateral to secure our payment and performance of our obligations under the LVMH Note that
is subordinate and junior to the security interest granted by us with respect to our obligations under the
ABL Credit Agreement and Term Loan Credit Agreement.

Outstanding Borrowings

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

We incurred significant additional debt in connection with our acquisition of DKI. We had
$12.0 million and $91.1 million in borrowings outstanding under the ABL Credit Agreement at January 31,
2018 and January 31, 2017, respectively, and $300.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Term
Loan Credit Agreement at both January 31, 2018 and 2017. At January 31, 2016, we had no borrowings
outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement. Our contingent liability under open letters of credit was
approximately $6.4 million at January 31, 2018, $10.4 million at January 31, 2017 and $5.5 million at
January 31, 2016. In addition to the amounts outstanding under these two loan agreements, at January 31,
2018 and 2017, we had $125 million of face value principal outstanding under the LVMH Note.

Issuance of Shares of Common Stock

As part of the purchase price for the acquisition of DKI, we issued to LVMH 2,608,877 shares of our
common stock. These shares were valued at $28.748 per share, which price per share is the volume weighted
average price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market over the five consecutive trading days
ending on November 30, 2016. The shares were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration
provided under Regulation D and Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction with a single,
sophisticated investor not involving a public offering. We entered into a registration rights agreement with
LVMH in which we granted piggyback registration rights to LVMH with respect to these shares for
two years from December 1, 2016.

In August 2017, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Amlon Capital B.V. (“Amlon”), a
private company incorporated in the Netherlands, to produce and market women’s and men’s apparel and
accessories pursuant to a long-term license for DKNY and Donna Karan in the People’s Republic of
China, including Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. We own 49% of the joint venture, with Amlon owning
the remaining 51%. The joint venture will be funded with $25 million of equity to be used to strengthen the
DKNY and Donna Karan brands and accelerate the growth of the business in the region. Of this amount,
we are required to contribute an aggregate of $10.0 million to the joint venture by August 2018. We funded
$49,000 of this amount upon the signing of the joint venture agreement. Starting January 1, 2018, this joint
venture is the exclusive seller of women’s and men’s apparel, handbags, luggage and certain accessories
under the DKNY and Donna Karan brands in the territory. The investment in Fabco, which is being
accounted for under the equity method of accounting, is reflected in Investment in Unconsolidated
Affiliates on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at January 31, 2018.

Investment in Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V.

In February 2016, we acquired a 19% minority interest in KLH, the parent company of the group that
holds the worldwide rights to the Karl Lagerfeld brand. We paid 32.5€ million (equal to $35.4 million at the
date of the transaction) for this interest. This investment is intended to expand the partnership between us
and the owners of Karl Lagerfeld and extend their business development opportunities on a global scale.
The investment in KLH, which is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting, is reflected
in Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at January 31, 2018.

Investment in KL North America

In June 2015, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Karl Lagerfeld Group BV (“KLBV”). We
paid KLBV $25.0 million for a 49% ownership interest in KLNA. KLNA holds brand rights to all Karl
Lagerfeld trademarks, including the Karl Lagerfeld Paris brand we currently use, for all consumer products
(except eyewear, fragrance, cosmetics, watches, jewelry and hospitality services) and apparel in the United
States, Canada and Mexico. The investment in KLNA, which is being accounted for under the equity
method of accounting, is reflected in Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates in our Consolidated Balance
Sheets at January 31, 2018.

Share Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of 5,000,000 shares. The timing
and actual number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a number of factors, including market
conditions and prevailing stock prices, and are subject to compliance with certain covenants contained in
in privately negotiated
our loan agreement. Share repurchases may take place on the open market,
transactions or by other means, and would be made in accordance with applicable securities laws. As of
April 2, 2018, we have approximately 49,145,809 shares of common stock outstanding.

Cash from Operating Activities

At January 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $45.8 million. We generated $79.7 million of
cash from operating activities in fiscal 2018, primarily as a result of our net income of $62.1 million, an
increase in account payables and accrued expenses of $10.7 million, a decrease in prepaid income taxes, net,
of $11.3 million and a decrease in other assets of $11.0 million, as well as non-cash charges totaling
$87.3 million related to depreciation and amortization, equity based compensation, amortization of
financing costs and impairment of assets. These amounts were offset,
in part, by an increase of
$68.8 million in inventory and $29.9 million in accounts receivable.

The increase in inventory is due to the expected increase in net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2019
compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The increase in accounts receivables is due to the increased net
sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the same period last year. The decrease in prepaid
income taxes, net is mainly the result of the timing of our tax payments compared to the same period in the
prior year. The decrease in other assets was mainly driven by the adjustments made to goodwill. The
increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses was the result of increased finished goods purchases to
accommodate our increase in net sales.

At January 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $80.0 million. We generated $105.7 million
of cash from operating activities in fiscal 2017, primarily as a result of our net income of $51.9 million,
non-cash charges of $32.5 million for depreciation and amortization and $16.9 million for equity based
compensation, as well as a decrease in prepaid income taxes, net of $14.2 million. These amounts were
offset, in part, by an increase of $29.3 million in accounts receivable.

The increase in accounts receivables is due to additional receivables acquired in connection with the
acquisition of DKI and the increase in the fourth quarter net sales compared to the same period last year.
The decrease in prepaid income taxes, net is mainly the result of the timing of our tax payments compared
to the same period in the prior year.

In connection with the purchase agreement, G-III and LVMH agreed to make an election under
Section 338(h)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code, which would allow us to step up the basis in the assets
acquired. We had initially estimated that the benefit from this election would be in excess of $10 million

annually. This benefit will be realized over a fifteen-year period if the we have taxable income in the United
States in an amount greater than $40 million per year. However, with the enactment of the TCJA, our
estimated benefit is approximately $6 million annually reflecting the change to our federal tax rate.

At January 31, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $132.6 million. We generated $74.3 million
of cash from operating activities in fiscal 2016, primarily as a result of our net income of $114.3 million,
non-cash charges of $25.4 million for depreciation and amortization, $15.6 million for equity based
compensation, and an increase in accounts payable of $14.8 million, offset, in part, by an increase of
$59.9 million in inventories, an increase of $23.6 million in accounts receivable and an increase in income
taxes payable of $16.9 million.

The increase in inventory is primarily a result of increased outerwear inventory due to unseasonably
warm weather during the fall and winter seasons, as well as a challenging retail environment in the last
quarter of fiscal 2016 that negatively impacted our sell through at the retail level. The increase in inventory
compared to the prior year is also due, to a lesser extent, to the additional inventory from our new lines of
Karl Lagerfeld Paris products and Tommy Hilfiger dresses. The increase in accounts receivables is due to a
shift in the timing of our January shipments, as we shipped larger volumes of merchandise later in the
month than in the same period in the prior year.

Cash from Investing Activities

In fiscal 2018, we used $33.9 million of cash in investing activities. The cash used in investing activities
consisted of capital expenditures related to additional fixturing costs at department stores, as well as
renovating, repurposing and relocating G.H. Bass and Wilsons Leather stores to Karl Lagerfeld Paris and
DKNY stores.

In fiscal 2017, we used $525.8 million in investing activities of which $465.4 million was in connection
with the acquisition of DKI. We also used $24.9 million for capital expenditures, primarily related to
fixturing costs at department stores, and $35.4 million for the investment in KLH.

In fiscal 2016, we used $67.7 million of cash in investing activities of which $42.2 million was for
capital expenditures, primarily related to fixturing costs at department stores, as well as for remodeling,
relocating and adding new Wilsons, G.H. Bass and Vilebrequin stores. The remainder of the cash used in
investing activities of $25.5 million related to the investment in KLNA.

Cash from Financing Activities

In fiscal 2018, we used $83.7 million of cash in financing activities primarily for the reduction in net

borrowings under our credit agreement.

Cash from financing activities provided $367.6 million in fiscal 2017, primarily from additional

borrowings to finance the DKI acquisition.

Cash from financing activities provided $0.5 million in fiscal 2016, primarily as a result of net proceeds

from the exercise of stock options.

Financing Needs

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

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350):
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The purpose of ASU 2017-04 is to simplify the subsequent
measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The amendment

should be applied on a prospective basis. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that year. Early adoption is permitted for interim or
annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We adopted the
provisions of ASU 2017-04 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. As a result of this early adoption, we
used a one-step approach to measure goodwill as of January 31, 2018 and recorded a $716,000 goodwill
impairment charge related to the retail operations segment as a result of the retail operations segment
performance.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330)”,
which changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to the lower of
cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary
course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.” ASU
2015-11 eliminates the guidance that entities consider replacement cost or net realizable value less an
approximately normal profit margin in the subsequent measurement of inventory when cost is determined
on a first-in, first-out or average cost basis. The provisions of ASU 2015-11 are effective for public entities
with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with
early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-11 during the first quarter of
fiscal 2018. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial
statements.

Accounting Guidance Issued Being Evaluated for Adoption

In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards
Update (“ASU”) 2018-02, “Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):
Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”, which provides
financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within accumulated other
comprehensive income to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S.
federal corporate income tax rate in the TCJA (or portion thereof) is recorded. The amendments of ASU
2018-12 are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods
within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2018-02 is permitted, including adoption in any interim
period for public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been
issued. The amendments of ASU 2018-12 should be applied either in the period of adoption or
retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate
income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. We are currently assessing the impact that
adopting ASU 2018-02 will have on our financial statements and footnote disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718):
Scope of Modification Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 provides clarification on when modification accounting
should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. ASU 2017-09 does
not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should
only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions or award classification and would not be
required if the changes are considered non-substantive. The amendments of ASU 2017-09 are effective for
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 is not expected to
have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the
Definition of a Business.” The purpose of ASU 2017-01 is to clarify the definition of a business to assist
entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets
or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim
periods within that year. The amendments in ASU 2017-01 should be applied prospectively on or after the
effective date. We do not expect ASU 2017-01 to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of
Assets Other Than Inventory.” The update requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of
an intra-entity transfer of an asset upon transfer other than inventory, eliminating the current recognition
exception. Prior to the update, GAAP prohibited the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for
intra-entity asset transfers until the asset was sold to an outside party. The amendments in this update do
not include new disclosure requirements; however, existing disclosure requirements might be applicable

when accounting for the current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other
than inventory. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years.
We do not expect ASU 2016-16 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification
of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which clarifies guidance with respect to the classification of
eight specific cash flow issues. ASU 2016-15 was issued to reduce diversity in practice and prevent financial
statement restatements. Cash flow issues include: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement
of zero-coupon bonds, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds
from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance
policies and bank-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees,
beneficial interests in securitization transactions and separately identifiable cash flows and application of
the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Under the provision, entities
must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively if
retrospective application would be impracticable. We do not believe that adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have
a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The primary difference
between the current requirement under GAAP and ASU 2016-02 is the recognition of lease assets and lease
liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. The FASB has continued to clarify this
guidance and most recently issued ASU 2017-13, “Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Staff
Announcement at the July 20, 2017 EITF Meeting and Rescission of Prior SEC Staff Announcements and
Observer Comments.” ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a
liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the
underlying asset for the lease term (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The
liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The asset will be based on the liability, subject
to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual
model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in
straight-line expense (similar to current operating leases) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded
expense pattern (similar to current capital leases). Classification will be based on criteria that are for the
most part similar to those applied in current lease accounting. ASU 2016-02 may be adopted using a
modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transactions will require
application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The
guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the potential
impact of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements. Given our significant number of leases,
we expect this standard will result in a significant increase to our long-term assets and liabilities but do not
expect it to have a material impact on our statements of operations. We are required to adopt the new
standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and do not expect to early adopt this new standard.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10):
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” This standard (i) modifies
how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities,
(ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by
requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) changes presentation and disclosure
requirements and (iv) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a
deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax
assets. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim
periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect that the adoption of this ASU 2016-01 will have a
material impact on our statement of operations.

“Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Staff Announcement at the July 20, 2017 EITF Meeting
and Rescission of Prior SEC Staff Announcements and Observer Comments”; ASU 2016-08, “Principal
versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”; ASU 2016-10, “Identifying
Performance Obligations and Licensing”; ASU 2016-12, “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical
Expedients”; and ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.” The amendments to ASU 2014-09 are intended to render more detailed
implementation guidance with the expectation of reducing the degree of judgment necessary to comply
with Topic 606. These new standards have the same effective date as ASU 2014-09 and will be effective for
public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period
presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the
guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). We have adopted the
pronouncement using a modified retrospective approach. We performed an analysis of our current revenue
streams worldwide and identified potential changes that will result from the adoption of the new guidance.
We are currently implementing changes to our accounting processes and controls to support the new
revenue recognition and disclosure requirements. The adoption of Topic 606 will primarily affect our
wholesale operations segment in the timing of recognition of certain adjustments that were recorded in net
sales. For example, we previously recorded markdowns and certain customer allowances when the liability
was known or incurred. Under the new guidance, we will have to estimate a liability for future anticipated
markdowns and allowances related to all shipments that have taken place. We will have reclassifications of
certain operating expenses that are considered customer assistance, such as cooperative advertising, which
aggregated approximately $28.2 million in fiscal 2018 and were recorded in selling, general and
administrative expenses, which will be recorded as an offset to net sales under the new guidance. The retail
operations segment will not be materially impacted by the new guidance, as our retail stores do not
currently offer significant loyalty programs to customers. Under the new standard, the transition
adjustment as of February 1, 2018 to retained earnings is estimated to be between approximately $39
million and $45 million. This estimate may change as we finalize the adoption of the new guidance.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risks and Commodity Price Risk

We negotiate substantially all our purchase orders with foreign manufacturers in United States dollars.
Thus, notwithstanding any fluctuation in foreign currencies, our cost for any purchase order is not subject
to change after the time the order is placed. However, if the value of the United States dollar against local
currencies were to decrease, manufacturers might increase their United States dollar prices for products.

Our sales from the non-US operations of Vilebrequin could be affected by currency fluctuations,
primarily relating to the Euro. We cannot fully anticipate all of our currency exposures and therefore
foreign currency fluctuations may impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
However, we believe that the risks related to these fluctuations are not material due to the low volume of
transactions by us that are denominated in currencies other than the US dollar. DKI has operations in the
Euro zone and, as such, sells product and records receivables denominated in Euro.

Interest Rate Exposure

We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates relating to our Term Loan and
our revolving credit facility. We borrow under our revolving credit facility to support general corporate
purposes, including capital expenditures and working capital needs. Interest rates increased in fiscal 2018
and we anticipate that increases in interest rates by the Federal Reserve in fiscal 2019 will result in a further
increase in our interest expense under our Term Loan and revolving credit facility. Based on the
outstanding balances of our Term Loan and our revolving credit facility as of January 31, 2018, we
estimate that each 100 basis point increase in our borrowing rates would result in additional interest expense
to us of approximately $3.1 million.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

Financial statements and supplementary data required pursuant to this Item begin on page F-1 of this

Report.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING

AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of January 31, 2018, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls
and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time
periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and thus, are effective in making known to them material
information relating to G-III required to be included in this Report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During our last fiscal quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control
over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management has conducted an
reporting, as required by Section 404 of

assessment, including testing, using the criteria on Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013), issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. Our system of
internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable
assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the
risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on its assessment, management has concluded that we maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of January 31, 2018, based on criteria in Internal Control — Integrated Framework
(2013), issued by the COSO.

Our independent auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, a registered public accounting firm, have audited and
reported on our consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting. The reports of our independent auditors appear on pages F-2 and F-3 of this Form
10-K and express unqualified opinions on the consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.

Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the
consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company at January 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended January 31, 2018, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31,
2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated April 2,
2018 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public
accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the
Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing
procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or
fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a
test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also
included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting
as of January 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO
criteria). In our opinion, G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained, in all
material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2018, based on the
COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of January 31, 2018
and 2017, the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2018, and the related notes and
financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) and our report dated April 2, 2018 expressed
an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in
the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We
are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to
the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over
financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing
the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and
that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Company. These investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All material
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Vilebrequin International SA (“Vilebrequin”), a Swiss corporation that is wholly-owned by the
Company, KLH and KLNA report results on a calendar year basis rather than on the January 31 fiscal year
basis used by the Company. Accordingly, the results of Vilebrequin, KLH and KLNA are, and will be,
included in the financial statements for the year ended or ending closest to the Company’s fiscal year. For
example, with respect to the Company’s results for the year ended January 31, 2018, the results of
Vilebrequin, KLH and KLNA are included for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company’s retail
operations segment reports results on a 52/53-week fiscal year. The Company’s year ended January 31, 2018
was a 53-week fiscal year for the retail operations segment. The Company’s years ended January 31, 2017
and 2016 were both 52-week fiscal years for the retail operations segment. For fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016,
the retail operations segment year end was February 3, 2018, January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016,
respectively.

2. Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or

less to be cash equivalents.

3. Revenue Recognition

Goods are shipped to retailers in accordance with specific customer orders. The Company recognizes
wholesale sales when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer, determined by
the Company to be when title to the merchandise passes to the customer.

The Company recognizes retail sales upon customer receipt of the merchandise, generally at the point

of sale. The Company’s sales are recorded net of applicable sales taxes.

Both wholesale revenues and retail store revenues are shown net of returns, discounts and other

allowances.

Royalty revenue is recognized at the higher of royalty earned or guaranteed minimum royalty.

4. Returns and Allowances

The Company reserves against known chargebacks and returns by customers. The Company
establishes these reserves for returns and allowances based on current and historical information and trends.
Allowances are established for trade discounts, markdowns, customer advertising agreements and

F-8

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

operational chargebacks. Estimated costs associated with allowable deductions for customer advertising
expenses are reflected as selling, general and administrative expenses. Estimated costs associated with trade
discounts and markdowns, and reserves for returns are reflected as a reduction of net sales. All of these
reserves are part of the allowances netted against accounts receivable. The Company estimates an allowance
for doubtful accounts based on the creditworthiness of
its customers as well as general economic
conditions. The Company writes off uncollectible trade receivables once collection efforts have been
exhausted.

Inventories

Wholesale inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or
net realizable value, which comprises a significant portion of the Company’s inventory. Retail inventories
are valued at the lower of cost or market as determined by the retail inventory method. Vilebrequin
inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the weighted average method) or net realizable
value.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business
combinations accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill and certain intangible
assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests using a
test combining a discounted cash flow analysis and a market approach. Other intangibles with finite lives,
including license agreements, trademarks and customer lists are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
estimated useful lives of the assets (currently ranging from 5 to 17 years). Impairment charges, if any, on
intangible assets with finite lives are recorded when indicators of
impairment are present and the
discounted cash flows estimated to be derived from those assets are less than the carrying amounts of the
assets.

In fiscal 2018, the Company wrote off goodwill of $716,000 related to the retail operations segment, as

a result of the performance of the retail operations segment.

7. Depreciation and Amortization

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed by the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized
using the straight-line method over the life of the lease or the useful life of the improvement, whichever is
shorter.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360 – Property, Plant and Equipment, the Company annually evaluates the
carrying value of its long-lived assets to determine whether changes have occurred that would suggest that
the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable based on the estimated future undiscounted cash
flows of the businesses to which the assets relate. Any impairment would be equal to the amount by which
the carrying value of the assets exceeded its fair value.

In fiscal 2018, the Company recorded a $6.5 million impairment charge related to leasehold
improvements and furniture and fixtures at certain of its Wilsons, G.H. Bass and Vilebrequin stores as a
result of the performance at these stores. In addition, the Company recorded a $738,000 impairment charge
with respect to furniture and fixtures located in certain customers’ stores.

In fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a $10.5 million impairment charge related to leasehold
improvements and furniture and fixtures at certain of its Wilsons and G.H. Bass stores as a result of the
performance at these stores.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes and uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC Topic
740 — Income Taxes. ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a
return, as well as guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties and financial statement
reporting disclosures.

Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of

assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

The Company recorded provisional amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the one-time

income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) based upon currently available information.

10. Net Income Per Common Share

On April 1, 2015, the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s
outstanding shares of common stock, effected in the form of a stock dividend. The stock dividend was paid
to stockholders of record as of the close of market on April 20, 2015 and was effected on May 1, 2015. All
share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split.

Basic net income per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the
weighted average number of common shares and potential dilutive common shares, consisting of unvested
restricted stock unit awards and stock options outstanding during the period. Approximately 466,000,
384,000 and 165,000 shares for the years ended January 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, have been
excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation. In addition, all share based payments
outstanding that vest based on the achievement of performance and/or market price conditions, and for
which the respective performance and/or market price conditions have not been achieved, have been
excluded from the diluted per share calculation. The Company issued 201,968, 194,618 and 270,630 shares
of common stock in connection with the exercise or vesting of equity awards during the years ended
January 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In addition, the Company re-issued 270,083 and 291,181
treasury shares in connection with the vesting of equity awards in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively.

The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used in the calculation of basic and

11. Equity Award Compensation

ASC Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, requires all share-based payments to
employees, including grants of restricted stock unit awards and employee stock options, to be recognized as
compensation expense over the service period (generally the vesting period) based on their fair values.

F-10

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Effective on February 1, 2016, the Company elected to account for forfeited awards as they occur as
permitted by Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-09. Ultimately, the actual expense recognized
over the vesting period will be for those shares that vested. Prior to making this election, the Company
estimated a forfeiture rate for awards at 0%, as the Company did not have a significant history of
forfeitures. Restricted stock unit awards generally vest over a three to five year period and certain awards
also include (i) market price performance conditions that provide for the award to vest only after the
average closing price of the Company’s stock trades above a predetermined market level and (ii) another
performance condition that requires the achievement of an operating performance target. All awards are
expensed on a straight-line basis other than awards with market price performance and operating
performance conditions, which are expensed under the requisite acceleration method.

It is the Company’s policy to grant stock options at prices not less than the fair market value on the
date of the grant. Option terms, vesting and exercise periods vary, except that the term of an option may
not exceed ten years.

Also effective on February 1, 2016, in accordance with ASU 2016-09, excess tax benefits arising from
the lapse or exercise of an equity award are no longer recognized in additional paid-in capital. The assumed
proceeds from applying the treasury stock method when computing net income per share is amended to
exclude the amount of excess tax benefits that would be recognized in additional paid-in capital. This
change in accounting resulted in approximately 207,000 additional diluted common shares being included
in the diluted net income per share calculation for the year ended January 31, 2017.

12. Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold includes the expenses incurred to acquire, produce and prepare inventory for sale,
including product costs, warehouse staff wages, freight in, import costs, packaging materials, the cost of
operating the overseas offices and royalty expense. Gross margins may not be directly comparable to those
of the Company’s competitors, as income statement classifications of certain expenses may vary by
company.

13. Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs consist of warehouse facility costs, third party warehousing, freight out
costs, and warehouse supervisory wages and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Shipping and handling costs
expenses were
$120.2 million, $99.1 million and $83.0 million for the years ended January 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016,
respectively.

included in selling, general and administrative

14. Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and includes these costs in selling, general and
administrative expenses. Advertising paid as a percentage of sales under license agreements are expensed in
the period in which the sales occur or are accrued to meet guaranteed minimum requirements under license
agreements. Advertising expense was $104.8 million, $89.5 million and $81.9 million for the years ended
January 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Prepaid advertising, which represents advance payments to
licensors for minimum guaranteed payments for advertising under the Company’s licensing agreements, was
$9.7 million and $7.8 million at January 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

15. Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States (“GAAP”), management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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.
In determining these estimates, management must use amounts that are based upon its informed judgments

F-11

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

and best estimates. The Company continually evaluates its estimates, including those related to customer
allowances and discounts, product returns, bad debts, inventories, and carrying values of intangible assets.
Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes
are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments
about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

16. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

GAAP establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The
determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy for a particular asset or liability depends on the
inputs used in its valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are
market-based (observable) or internally-derived (unobservable). A financial instrument’s categorization
within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value
measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets

or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in
active markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; quoted prices for identical or
similar instruments in markets that are not active for substantially the full term of the financial instrument;
and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology based on unobservable prices or valuation techniques

that are significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amount of the Company’s variable rate debt approximates the fair value, as interest rates
change with the market rates. Furthermore, the carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially
subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also
approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts.

The 2% note issued to LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton Inc. (“LVMH”) in connection with the
acquisition of DKI was issued at a discount of $40.0 million in accordance with ASC 820 — Fair Value
Measurements.

The annual calculation of contingent consideration that was recorded in the fiscal year ended
January 31, 2016 in connection with the acquisition of Vilebrequin reflected current market conditions at
that time.

The fair values of both the promissory notes and the contingent consideration were considered Level 3

valuations in the fair value hierarchy.

17. Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s international subsidiaries use different functional currencies, which are, for the most
part, the local currency. In accordance with the authoritative guidance, assets and liabilities of the
Company’s foreign operations are translated from foreign currency into U.S. dollars at period-end rates,
while income and expenses are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the period. The related
translation adjustments are reflected as a foreign currency translation adjustment in accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The amendment
should be applied on a prospective basis. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that year. Early adoption is permitted for interim or
annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company adopted
the provisions of ASU 2017-04 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. As a result of this early adoption,
the Company used a one-step approach to measure goodwill as of January 31, 2018 and recorded a
$716,000 goodwill impairment charge related to the retail operations segment as a result of the performance
of the retail operations segment.

Accounting Guidance Issued Being Evaluated for Adoption

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive
Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Income”, which provides financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects
within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of
the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the TCJA (or portion thereof) is recorded. The
amendments of ASU 2018-02 are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018,
and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2018-02 is permitted, including
adoption in any interim period for the public business entities for reporting periods for which financial
statements have not yet been issued. The amendments of ASU 2018-02 should be applied either in the
period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the
U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the TCJA is recognized. The Company is currently assessing the
impact that adopting ASU 2018-02 will have on its financial statements and footnote disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the
Definition of a Business.” The purpose of ASU 2017-01 is to clarify the definition of a business to assist
entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets
or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim
periods within that year. The amendments in ASU 2017-01 should be applied prospectively on or after the
effective date. The Company does not expect ASU 2017-01 to have an impact on its consolidated financial
statements.

F-13

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

an intra-entity transfer of an asset upon transfer other than inventory, eliminating the current recognition
exception. Prior to the update, GAAP prohibited the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for
intra-entity asset transfers until the asset was sold to an outside party. The amendments in this update do
not include new disclosure requirements; however, existing disclosure requirements might be applicable
when accounting for the current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other
than inventory. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years.
The Company does not expect ASU 2016-16 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification
of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which clarifies guidance with respect to the classification of
eight specific cash flow issues. ASU 2016-15 was issued to reduce diversity in practice and prevent financial
statement restatements. Cash flow issues include: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement
of zero-coupon bonds, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds
from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance
policies and bank-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees,
beneficial interests in securitization transactions and separately identifiable cash flows and application of
the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Under the provision, entities
must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively if
retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company does not believe that adoption of
ASU 2016-15 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The primary difference
between the current requirement under GAAP and ASU 2016-02 is the recognition of lease assets and lease
liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. The FASB has continued to clarify this
guidance and most recently issued ASU 2017-13, “Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Staff
Announcement at the July 20, 2017 EITF Meeting and Rescission of Prior SEC Staff Announcements and
Observer Comments.” ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a
liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the
underlying asset for the lease term (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The
liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The asset will be based on the liability, subject
to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual
model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in
straight-line expense (similar to current operating leases) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded
expense pattern (similar to current capital leases). Classification will be based on criteria that are for the
most part similar to those applied in current lease accounting. ASU 2016-02 may be adopted using a
modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transactions will require
application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The
guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the
potential impact of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements. Given the Company’s significant
number of leases, the Company expects this standard will result in a significant increase to its long-term
assets and liabilities but does not expect it to have a material impact on its statements of operations. The
Company is required to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and does not expect to
early adopt this new standard.

F-14

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

requirements and (iv) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a
deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax
assets. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim
periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect that the
adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).”
This update will replace the existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP and requires an entity to
recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or
services to customers. The FASB has continued to clarify this guidance and has issued ASU 2017-13,
“Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Staff Announcement at the July 20, 2017 EITF Meeting
and Rescission of Prior SEC Staff Announcements and Observer Comments”; ASU 2016-08, “Principal
versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”; ASU 2016-10, “Identifying
Performance Obligations and Licensing”; ASU 2016-12, “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical
Expedients”; and ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.” The amendments to ASU 2014-09 are intended to render more detailed
implementation guidance with the expectation of reducing the degree of judgment necessary to comply
with Topic 606. These new standards have the same effective date as ASU 2014-09 and will be effective for
public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period
presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the
guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The Company has
adopted the pronouncement using a modified retrospective approach. The Company performed an analysis
of its current revenue streams worldwide and identified potential changes that will result from the adoption
of the new guidance. The Company is implementing changes to its accounting processes and controls to
support the new revenue recognition and disclosure requirements. The adoption of Topic 606 will primarily
affect the wholesale operations segment in the timing of recognition of certain adjustments that were
recorded in net sales. For example, the Company previously recorded markdowns and certain customer
allowances when the liability was known or incurred. Under the new guidance, the Company will have to
estimate a liability for future anticipated markdowns and allowances related to all shipments that have taken
place. The Company will have reclassifications of certain operating expenses that are considered customer
assistance, such as cooperative advertising, which aggregated $28.2 million in fiscal 2018 and were recorded
in selling, general and administrative expenses, which will be recorded as an offset to net sales under the new
guidance. The retail operations segment will not be materially impacted by the new guidance, as the
Company’s retail stores do not currently offer significant loyalty programs to customers. Under the new
standard, the transition adjustment as of February 1, 2018 to retained earnings is estimated to be between
approximately $39 million and $45 million. This estimate may change as the Company finalizes its adoption
of the new guidance.

NOTE B — INVENTORIES

Inventory held on consignment by third parties totaled $3.3 million at January 31, 2018 and
$2.8 million at January 31, 2017. The Company retains the title to its inventory stored at third party
facilities.

The Company wrote off fixed assets of $3.6 million and $3.2 million, net of accumulated depreciation,
for the years ended January 31, 2018 and 2017. Depreciation expense was $32.8 million, $29.6 million and
$23.0 million for the years ended January 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the year ended
January 31, 2018, the Company recorded (i) a $6.5 million impairment charge related to leasehold
improvements and furniture and fixtures of certain Wilsons, G.H. Bass and Vilebrequin stores as a result of
the performance of these stores and (ii) a $738,000 impairment charge with respect to furniture and fixtures
located in certain customers’ stores. For the year ended January 31, 2017, the Company recorded a
$10.5 million impairment charge on leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures of certain of its
Wilsons and G.H. Bass stores as a result of the performance of these stores.

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In the evaluation process, the
Company first compares the carrying value of the asset to the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted
and without interest charges plus proceeds expected from disposition, if any). If the estimated undiscounted
cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, the Company needs to determine the fair value of
the assets. The Company compares the carrying value of the asset to the asset’s estimated fair value. If the
fair value is less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge. The carrying
amount of the asset is reduced to the estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow valuation. Assets
to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount of the asset or fair value less costs to
sell. The Company reviews retail store assets for potential impairment based on historical cash flows, lease
termination provisions and forecasted future retail store operating results. If the Company recognizes an
impairment charge for a depreciable long-lived asset, the adjusted carrying amount of the asset becomes its
new cost basis and will be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset.

NOTE D — ACQUISITIONS AND INTANGIBLES

Acquisition of Donna Karan International Inc.

On December 1, 2016, G-III acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of DKI from LVMH,
pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated July 22, 2016, by and between
the Company and LVMH, for a total purchase price, including adjustments, of $674.4 million.

DKI owns Donna Karan and DKNY, two of the world’s most iconic and recognizable power brands.
DKI sells its products through department stores, specialty retailers and online retailers worldwide, as well
as through company-owned retail stores, e-commerce sites and distribution agreements. The acquisition of
DKI strengthens and diversifies the Company’s brand portfolio and offers additional opportunities to
expand G-III’s business through the development of the DKNY and Donna Karan brands and product

measurement period is the period after the acquisition date during which the acquirer may adjust the

balance sheet amounts recognized for a business combination (generally up to one year from the date of
acquisition). During the year ended January 31, 2018, the Company reduced goodwill by $9.0 million, net
due to certain adjustments related to unrecorded indemnification obligations from LVMH, asset reserves,
fixed assets and the section 338(h)(10) tax election adjustment.

The Company recognized goodwill of $211.7 million in connection with the acquisition of DKI.
Goodwill was assigned to the Company’s wholesale operations segment as the wholesale operations segment
is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination and from the future growth of DKI.
Subsequent to the acquisition, DKI’s wholesale operations were integrated into G-III’s credit and collection
operating system and both entities share several processes such as information technology, finance, logistics,
human resources, sourcing and overseas quality control. The Company and LVMH have made an election
under Internal Revenue Code Section 338(h)(10). Accordingly, the book and tax basis of the acquired
domestic assets and liabilities are the same as of the purchase date and the goodwill is deductible for tax
purposes over a 15-year period.

The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired were based on assumptions and
estimates made by management using unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions
about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best
information available. The fair values of these identifiable intangible assets were determined using the
discounted cash flow method and the Company classifies these intangibles as Level 3 fair value
measurements. The Company recorded other intangible assets of $410.0 million within the wholesale
operations segment, which included customer relationships of $40.0 million (17-year life), as well as
tradenames of $370.0 million, which have an indefinite life.

The Company recognized $736,000 and $7.8 million of acquisition-related costs that were expensed in
fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017. These costs have been included in selling, general and administrative expenses in
the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net
tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for under the purchase
method. The Company reviews and tests its goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives for
impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of such assets may be impaired. The Company performs the test in the fourth fiscal
quarter of each year using a combination of a discounted cash flow analysis and a market approach. The
discounted cash flow approach requires that certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding industry
economic factors and future profitability. The market approach estimates the fair value based on
comparisons with the market values and market multiples of earnings and revenues of similar public
companies.

In fiscal 2018, the Company reduced goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of DKI by
$9.0 million due to certain adjustments related to unrecorded indemnification obligations from LVMH,
asset reserves, fixed assets and the section 338(h)(10) tax election adjustment. The Company also wrote off
the goodwill associated with the retail operations segment of $716,000 as a result of the retail operations
segment performance.

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Term Loan

In connection with the acquisition of DKI, the Company borrowed $350.0 million under a senior
secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan will mature in December 2022. The Term
Loan was subject to amortization payments of 0.625% of the original aggregate principal amount of the
Term Loan per quarter, with the balance due at maturity. On December 1, 2016, the Company prepaid
$50.0 million in principal amount of the Term Loan. This prepayment relieved the Company of its
obligation to make quarterly amortization payments for the remainder of the Term Loan.

Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan accrues at a rate equal to LIBOR,
subject to a 1% floor, plus an applicable margin of 5.25% or an alternate base rate (defined as the greatest
of (i) the “prime rate” as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate
plus 0.5% or (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus 4.25%, per
annum, payable in cash.

The Term Loan is secured (i) on a first-priority basis by a lien on the Company’s real estate assets,
equipment and fixtures, equity interests and intellectual property and certain related rights owned by the
Company and by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and (ii) by a second-priority security interest in
other assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, which secure on a first-priority basis the
Company’s asset-based loan facility described below under the caption “New Revolving Credit Facility”.

The Term Loan contains covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to among other things, incur
additional debt, sell or dispose certain assets, make certain investments,
incur liens and enter into
acquisitions. This loan also includes a mandatory prepayment provision on excess cash flow as defined
within the agreement. A first lien leverage covenant requires the Company to maintain a level of debt to
EBITDA at a ratio as defined over the term of the agreement. As of January 31, 2018, the Company was in
compliance with these covenants.

The Term Loan may be prepaid, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time at par
plus accrued interest, and, in the case of prepayments from the proceeds of certain refinancings prior to
December 1, 2017, subject to a 1% prepayment fee. The Term Loan is required to be prepaid with the
proceeds of certain asset sales if such proceeds are not applied as required by the Term Loan within certain
specified deadlines. The Term Loan is also required to be prepaid in an amount equal to 75% of the “Excess
Cash Flow” (as defined in the Term Loan) of the Company with respect to each fiscal year ending on or
after January 31, 2018. The percentage of Excess Cash Flow that must be so applied is reduced to 50% if
the Company’s senior secured leverage ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00, to 25% if the Company’s senior
secured leverage ratio is less than 2.75 to 1.00 and to 0% if the Company’s senior secured leverage ratio is
less than 2.25 to 1.00. As of January 31, 2018, the Company was not required to make a mandatory
prepayment provision on excess cash flow as defined within the Term Loan.

The Company also incurred debt issuance costs totaling $18.3 million related to the Term Loan, of
which $2.6 million have been expensed in connection with the $50 million prepayment. In accordance with
ASU 2015-15, the debt issuance costs have been deferred and are presented as a contra-liability, offsetting
the outstanding balance of the Term Loan, and are amortized using the effective interest method over the
remaining life of the Term Loan.

The weighted average interest rate for amounts borrowed under the Term Loan was 6.55% for the year
ended January 31, 2018. A 0.25% change in the interest rates applied to the Term Loan would change
annual interest expense under the Term Loan by $750,000.

New Revolving Credit Facility

Upon closing of the acquisition of DKI, the Company’s prior credit agreement (the “prior revolving
credit facility”) was refinanced and replaced by a $650 million amended and restated credit agreement (the
“new revolving credit facility”). Amounts available under the new revolving credit facility are subject to

F-21

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the new revolving credit facility agreement.
Borrowings bear interest, at the Company’s option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.75% or an
alternate base rate (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from
time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest
period of one month) plus a margin of 0.25% to 0.75%, with the applicable margin determined based on
the availability under the new revolving credit facility agreement. The new revolving credit facility has a
five-year term ending December 1, 2021. In addition to paying interest on any outstanding borrowings
under the new revolving credit facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders
under the credit agreement with respect to the unutilized commitments. The commitment fee accrues at a
rate equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitments.

The Company also incurred debt issuance costs totaling $12.4 million related to the new revolving
credit facility. As permitted under ASU 2015-15, the debt issuance costs have been deferred and are
presented as an asset, which is subsequently amortized ratably over the term of the new revolving credit
facility.

The new revolving credit facility is secured by specified assets of the Company and certain of its

subsidiaries.

The new revolving credit facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the
Company’s ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of
assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve itself; acquire other companies; make loans,
advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. In certain circumstances, the new revolving credit
facility also requires G-III to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined, that should not
exceed 1.00 to 1.00 for each period of twelve consecutive fiscal months of holdings. As of January 31, 2018,
the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

As of January 31, 2018, interest under the new revolving credit facility was being charged at the
weighted average rate of 2.33% per annum. The new revolving credit facility also includes amounts available
for letters of credit. As of January 31, 2018, the Company had $12.0 million of borrowings outstanding
under the new revolving credit facility, all of which are classified as long-term liabilities. As of January 31,
2018, there were outstanding trade and standby letters of credit amounting to $3.4 million and $3.0 million,
respectively.

LVMH Note
As a portion of the consideration for the acquisition of DKI, the Company issued to LVMH a junior
lien secured promissory note in the principal amount of $125.0 million (the “LVMH Note”) that bears
interest at the rate of 2% per year. $75.0 million of the principal amount of the LVMH Note is due and
payable on June 1, 2023 and $50.0 million of such principal amount is due and payable on December 1,
2023.

In connection with the issuance of the LVMH Note, LVMH entered into (i) a subordination agreement
with Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent for the lenders party to the Term Loan and collateral
agent for the Senior Secured Parties thereunder and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent
for the lenders and other Senior Secured Parties under the new revolving credit facility, providing that the
Company’s obligations under the LVMH Note are subordinate and junior to the Company’s obligations
under the new revolving credit facility and the Term Loan, and (ii) a pledge and security agreement with the
Company and its subsidiary, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., pursuant to which the Company and G-III
Leather Fashions, Inc. granted to LVMH a security interest in specified collateral to secure the Company’s
payment and performance of the Company’s obligations under the LVMH Note that is subordinate and
junior to the security interest granted by the Company with respect to the Company’s obligations under the
new revolving credit facility agreement and Term Loan.

ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements requires the note to be recorded at fair value. As a result, the
Company recorded a $40.0 million debt discount. This discount is being amortized as interest expense using
the effective interest method over the term of the LVMH Note.

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Prior Revolving Credit Facility

Prior to the acquisition of DKI, the prior revolving credit facility consisted of a five-year senior
secured credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $450 million
through August 2017. Amounts available under the prior revolving credit facility were subject to borrowing
base formulas and other advances as specified in the related credit agreement. Borrowings bore interest, at
the Company’s option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.5% to 2.0% or prime plus a margin of 0.5% to 1.0%,
with the applicable margin determined based on availability under the prior revolving credit facility.

The prior revolving credit facility was secured by all of the assets of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its
subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., Riviera Sun, Inc., CK Outerwear, LLC, Andrew & Suzanne
Company Inc., AM Retail Group, Inc., G-III Apparel Canada ULC, G-III License Company, LLC and
AM Apparel Holdings, Inc.

The weighted average interest rate for amounts borrowed under the prior revolving credit facility was
2.1% for the period starting February 2, 2016 and ending November 30, 2016, when the prior revolving
credit facility was replaced by the new revolving credit facility.

Future Debt Maturities

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred
to as the TCJA. The TCJA included a broad range of complex provisions impacting the taxation of
multi-national companies including the Company. Specifically, the Company is impacted by the change in
the U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% (effective January 1, 2018), the new regime for
the taxation of overseas earnings, the one-time transition tax, taxation of certain performance-based
compensation paid to the Company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer and three other top
executive officers that was previously deductible, full expensing of fixed assets and the deductibility of
certain costs. Generally, accounting for the impacts of newly enacted tax legislation is required to be
completed in the period of enactment. However, in response to the complexities and ambiguity surrounding
the TCJA, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to provide companies with
relief with respect to the initial accounting for the effects of the TCJA. SAB 118 allows companies to
provide a provisional estimate of the impacts of the legislation. The Company will finalize accounting for
the TCJA during the one-year measurement period, and any adjustments to the provisional amounts will be
included in income tax expense or benefit in the appropriate period, and disclosed if material, in accordance
with guidance provided by SAB 118. While the Company’s accounting for the TCJA is not complete, it has
recognized a provisional charge (based on information available as of January 31, 2018) of $7.7 million
primarily comprised of approximately $3.3 million related to the repatriation tax and approximately
$4.4 million of tax expense related to revaluing U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities using the new
U.S. corporate tax rate of 21%. Other provisional impacts were primarily related to U.S. federal and state
tax impact of the prorated reduced federal tax rate. This provisional estimate does not reflect the effects of
any state tax law changes that may arise as a result of the federal tax changes.

The significant components of the Company’s net deferred tax asset at January 31, 2018 and 2017 are

summarized as follows:

Valuation allowances represent deferred tax benefits where management is uncertain if the Company
will have the ability to recognize those benefits in the future. As of January 2018, the company recorded a
valuation allowance of $1.6 million against its deferred tax assets.

As of January 31, 2018, there were no undistributed earnings related to the Company’s foreign
subsidiaries. The primary reason there were no undistributed earnings as of January 31, 2018 was a
provision of the TCJA, specifically the Section 965 transition tax, which resulted in the Company taking a
one-time charge relating to the earnings of its foreign subsidiaries. As a result, the earnings of the
Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered Previously Taxed Income (“PTI”) which can be distributed
to the U.S. tax free. Although the PTI can be distributed back to the U.S. tax free, the Company has not
changed its APB 23 assertion that these earnings are indefinitely reinvested.

The Company accounts for uncertain income tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 — Income
Taxes. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign
jurisdictions. As of January 31, 2018, there was a decrease in the unrecognized tax position reserve of
$1.0 million for lapses in the statute of limitations in the uncertain income tax positions reserves.

The Company’s policy on classification is to include interest in interest and financing charges, net and
penalties in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Income and Comprehensive Income. The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to U.S.

Federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. One of its foreign
subsidiaries, T.R.B. International S.A., has a ruling with the Swiss government that taxes commercial
foreign sourced income at an 11.6% rate. The ruling was extended to the year ending December 31, 2018.

Of the major jurisdictions, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to examination in the United
States and various foreign jurisdictions for fiscal year 2013 and forward. It is currently under audit
examination by New Jersey and New York for fiscal year 2010 and forward. The Company believes that it is
reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits of $429,000 (inclusive of tax, interest
and penalties) will not change during the next twelve months due to the applicable statutes of limitations.

NOTE G — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Lease Agreements

The Company leases warehousing, executive and sales facilities, retail stores, equipment and vehicles
under operating leases with options to renew at varying terms. Leases with provisions for increasing rents
have been accounted for on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

Certain leases provide for contingent rents, which are determined as a percentage of gross sales. The
Company records a contingent rent liability in accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and
the corresponding rent expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income
when management determines that achieving the specified levels during the fiscal year is probable.

The following schedule sets forth the future minimum rental payments for operating leases having

non-cancelable lease periods in excess of one year at January 31, 2018:

Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to periodic claims, investigations and
lawsuits. Although the Company cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of claims,
investigations and lawsuits, asserted against the Company, it does not believe that any currently pending
legal proceeding or proceedings to which it is a party could have a material adverse effect on its business,
financial condition or results of operations except for the following:

Canadian Customs Duty Examination
In October 2017, the Canada Border Service Agency (“CBSA”) issued a final audit report to G-III
the Company. The report
Apparel Canada ULC (“G-III Canada”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
challenged the valuation used by G-III Canada for certain goods imported into Canada. The period
covered by the examination is February 1, 2014 through the date of the final report, October 27, 2017. The
CBSA has requested G-III Canada to reassess its customs entries for that period using the price paid or
payable by the Canadian retail customers for certain imported goods rather than the price paid by G-III
Canada to the vendor. The CBSA has also requested that G-III Canada change the valuation method used
to pay duties with respect to goods imported in the future.

On March 14, 2018, G-III Canada provided a bond to the CBSA to secure payment of the additional
duties payable as a result of the reassessment required by the final audit report. The Company issued a
bond in the amount of CAD$26.9 million ($20.9 million) representing customs duty and interest through
December 31, 2017 that is claimed to be owed to the CBSA. In March 2018, the Company amended the
duties filed for the month of January 2018 under the new valuation method. The additional duty claimed to
be owed amounted to CAD$1.4 million ($1.1 million) which is under review by the CBSA. Beginning
February 1, 2018, the Company began paying duties based on the new valuation method. The additional
duties paid beginning on February 1, 2018 on the higher dutiable value will not be charged as an expense in
the Company’s statement of operations, but will be recorded as a deferred expense until the appeal process
has concluded.

All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of 5,000,000 shares.
The timing and actual number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a number of factors, including
market conditions and prevailing stock prices, and are subject to compliance with certain covenants
contained in the loan agreement. Share repurchases may take place on the open market, in privately
negotiated transactions or by other means, and would be made in accordance with applicable securities
laws.

The Company did not repurchase any shares during fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2018.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

As of January 31, 2018, the Company had 1,252,317 shares available for grant under its long-term
incentive plan. The plan provides for the grant of equity and cash awards, including restricted stock awards,
stock options and other stock unit awards to directors, officers and employees. Restricted stock unit awards
generally vest over a three to five year period and certain awards also include (i) market price performance
conditions that provide for the award to vest only after the average closing price of the Company’s stock
trades above a predetermined market level and (ii) another performance condition that requires the
achievement of an operating performance target. It is the Company’s policy to grant stock options at prices
not less than the fair market value on the date of the grant. Option terms, vesting and exercise periods vary,
except that the term of an option may not exceed ten years.

For restricted stock units with market conditions, the Company estimates the grant date fair value
using a Monte Carlo simulation model. This valuation methodology utilizes the closing price of the
Company’s common stock on grant date and several key assumptions, including expected volatility of the
Company’s stock price, and risk-free rates of return. This valuation is performed with the assistance of a
third party valuation specialist. For restricted stock units with no performance conditions, grant date fair
value is based on the market price on the date of grant.

The fair value of stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This
model requires the input of subjective assumptions that will usually have a significant impact on the fair
value estimate. No stock options were granted during the years ended January 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Effective on February 1, 2016, the Company elected to account for forfeited awards as they occur as
permitted by ASU 2016-09. Ultimately, the actual expense recognized over the vesting period will be for
those shares that vested. Prior to making this election, the Company estimated a forfeiture rate for awards
at 0%, as the Company did not have a significant history of forfeitures.
