Item 1. Description of Business 

Background 

Part I 

Revlon, Inc. (and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) conducts its business exclusively through 
its direct subsidiary, Revlon Consumer Products Corporation (“Products Corporation”) manufactures, markets and 
sells  an  extensive  array  of  cosmetics  and  skin  care,  fragrances  and  personal  care  products.    Revlon  is  one  of  the 
world's best-known names in cosmetics and is a leading mass-market cosmetics brand.  The Company believes that its 
global brand name recognition, product quality and marketing experience have enabled it to create one of the strongest 
consumer brand franchises in the world.  The Company's products are marketed under such well-known brand names 
as Revlon, ColorStay, Revlon Age Defying, and Skinlights, as well as Almay and Ultima II in cosmetics; Almay 
Kinetin, Vitamin C Absolutes, Eterna 27, Ultima II and Jeanne Gatineau in skin care; Charlie and Fire & Ice in 
fragrances; and High Dimension, Flex, Mitchum, Colorsilk, Jean Naté and Bozzano in personal care products.  To 
further strengthen its consumer brand franchises, the Company  markets each core brand  with a distinct and uniform 
global image, including packaging and advertising, while retaining the flexibility to tailor products to local and regional 
preferences. 

The Company was founded by Charles Revson, who revolutionized the cosmetics industry by introducing nail 
enamels matched to lipsticks in fashion colors over 70 years ago. Today, the Company has the number three position in 
the color cosmetics category in the U.S. mass-market distribution channel and leading market positions in a number of 
its  principal  product  categories,  including  the  lip,  face  makeup  and  nail  enamel  categories.    The  Company  also  has 
leading  market  positions  in  several  product  categories  in  certain  markets  outside  of  the  United  States,  including  in 
Australia, Canada, Mexico and South Africa.  The Company’s products are sold in more than 100 countries across five 
continents. 

All  United  States  market  share  and  market  position  data  herein  for  the  Company’s  brands  are  based  upon 
retail dollar sales, which are derived from ACNielsen data.  ACNielsen measures retail sales volume of products sold in 
the  United  States  mass-market  distribution  channel.    Such  data  represent  ACNielsen’s  estimates  based  upon  data 
gathered by ACNielsen from market samples and are therefore subject to some degree of variance.  Additionally, as of 
August 4, 2001, AC Nielsen’s data does not reflect sales volume from Wal-Mart, Inc. 

Recent Developments 

On November 26, 2001 Products Corporation issued and sold $363 million in aggregate principal amount 
of  12%  Senior  Secured  Notes  due  2005  (the  “12%  Notes”)  at  96.569%,  in  a  private  placement,  receiving  gross 
proceeds of  $350.5 million. 

On  November  30,  2001  Products  Corporation  entered  into  a  new  credit  agreement  (the  “2001  Credit 
Agreement").    The  2001  Credit  Agreement  provides  up  to  $250.0  million  in  credit  facilities  comprised  of  $117.9 
million in a term loan facility and $132.1 million in a multi-currency revolving credit facility (the issuance of the 
12%  Notes  and  the  2001  Credit  Agreement  are  referred  to  herein  as  the  “2001  Refinancing  Transactions”).    The 
proceeds from the offering of the 12% Notes along with borrowings under the 2001 Credit Agreement were used to 
repay  all  amounts  outstanding  under  the  1997  Credit  Agreement  (as  hereinafter  defined)  and  to  pay  fees  and 
expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  the  2001  Refinancing  Transactions,  and  the  balance  is  available  for  general 
corporate  purposes.    On  or  before  February  25,  2002,  Products  Corporation  is  required  to  file  a  registration 
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to an offer to exchange 
the 12% Notes for registered notes with substantially the same terms (the “Exchange Offer”).   

Products  Corporation’s  obligations  under  the  12%  Notes  are  secured  on  a  second-priority  basis  by 
substantially the same collateral that secures the 2001 Credit Agreement on a first-priority basis, which includes, with 
certain  limited  exceptions,  Products  Corporation’s  capital  stock,  substantially  all  of  Products  Corporation’s  non-real 
property  assets  in  the  United  States,  Products  Corporation’s  facility  in  Oxford,  North  Carolina,  the  capital  stock  of 
Products Corporation’s domestic subsidiaries and 66% of the capital stock of Products Corporation’s first-tier foreign 
subsidiaries.

Personal  Care  Products.     The  Company  sells  a  broad  line  of  personal  care  consumer  products,  which 
complements its core cosmetics lines and enables the Company to meet the consumer's broader beauty care needs.  In 
the  mass-market  distribution  channel,  the  Company  sells  haircare,  antiperspirant  and  other  personal  care  products,

the  Company  launched  its  High  Dimension  hair  color,  a  revolutionary  10-minute  home  permanent  hair  color, 
compared to many of our competitors’ home permanent hair color which require two to three times as long. 

Fragrances.  The Company sells a selection of moderately priced and premium-priced fragrances, including 
perfumes, eau de toilettes, colognes and body sprays.  The Company's portfolio includes fragrances such as Charlie, 
Ciara, Fire & Ice and Absolutely Fabulous.  

Marketing  

The Company markets extensive consumer product lines at a range of retail prices primarily through the mass-
market  distribution  channel  and  outside  the  U.S.  also  markets  select  premium  lines  through  demonstrator-assisted 
channels.    Each  line  is  distinctively  positioned  and  is  marketed  globally  with  consistently  recognizable  logos, 
packaging  and  advertising.    The  Company's  existing  product  lines  are  carefully  tailored,  and  new  product  lines  are 
developed, to target specific consumer needs as measured by focus groups and other market research techniques. 

The Company  undertook a comprehensive review of its advertising strategy in late 2000 and early 2001.  
This resulted in a shift from the historical use of an in-house advertising division to create and execute advertising to 
the  use  of  outside  agencies  to  develop  advertising  campaigns  for  a  number  of  the  Company’s  key  new  product 
launches  and  to  bring  new  energy  to  the  Revlon  and  Almay  brands,  respectively.    Additionally  in  2002  the 
Company will consolidate all of its advertising for the Revlon and Almay brands into a single advertising agency.  
The Company believes that this shift to a leading outside agency will increase the effectiveness and relevance of its 
worldwide advertising, as well as result in more efficient media placement.  

The Company uses print and television advertising and point-of-sale merchandising, including displays and 
samples.  The Company's marketing emphasizes a uniform global image and product for its portfolio of core brands, 
including Revlon, ColorStay, Revlon Age Defying, Almay, Ultima II, Flex, Charlie, and Mitchum. The Company 
coordinates advertising campaigns with in-store promotional and other marketing activities.  The Company develops 
jointly  with  retailers  carefully  tailored  advertising,  point-of-purchase  and  other  focused  marketing  programs.    The 
Company  uses  network  and  spot  television  advertising,  national  cable  advertising  and  print  advertising  in  major 
general  interest,  women's  fashion  and  women's  service  magazines,  as  well  as  coupons,  magazine  inserts  and 
point-of-sale  testers.  The  Company  also  uses  cooperative  advertising  programs  with  some  retailers,  supported  by 
Company-paid or Company-subsidized demonstrators, and coordinated in-store promotions and displays. 

The Company also  has developed unique  marketing  materials  such as the "Revlon Report," a glossy, color 
pamphlet distributed on merchandising units, which highlights seasonal and other fashion and color trends, describes 
the Company's products that address those trends and contains coupons, rebate offers and other promotional material to 
encourage consumers to try the Company's products.  Other marketing materials designed to introduce the Company's 
newest products to consumers and encourage trial and purchase include point-of-sale testers on the Company's display 
units  that  provide  information  about,  and  permit  consumers  to  test,  the  Company's  products,  thereby  achieving  the 
benefits  of  an  in-store  demonstrator  without  the  corresponding  cost,  magazine  inserts  containing  samples  of  the 
Company's  newest  products,  trial-size  products  and  "shade  samplers,"  which  are  collections  of  trial-size  products  in 
different  shades.  Additionally,  in  2001  the  Company  relaunched  its  website  devoted  to  the  Revlon  brand, 
www.revlon.com, and launched a new website for its Almay product lineup, www.almay.com.  Each of these websites

identify consumer needs and shifts in consumer preferences in order to develop new products, tailor line extensions 
and promotions and redesign or reformulate existing products to satisfy such needs or preferences.  The Company's 
research  and  development  group  comprises  departments  specialized  in  the  technologies  critical  to  the  Company's 
various  product  categories,  as  well  as  an  advanced  technology  department  that  promotes  inter-departmental,

leader 

in 

As part of the Company’s 2001 strategic plan, one of the Company’s key objectives was to reinvigorate the 
Company’s brands by developing a pipeline of innovative new products.  In 2001, the Company created one of its 
most  extensive  line-ups  of  new  products  since  the  development  and  introduction  of  ColorStay  in  the  mid-1990s, 
with  major  new  product  launches  including:  Skinlights  skin  brighteners,  that  brightens  skin  with  sheer  washes  of 
color, which created an entirely new category in color cosmetics; Absolutely Fabulous Lipcream, a new premium line 
of emollient-rich lip color; and Super Top Speed nail enamel, currently available in 48 shades, containing a patented 
speed drying polymer formula which sets in 60 seconds. In 2001, the Company launched Illuminance, an eye shadow 
that  “brightens  up  eyes.”    Also  in  2001,  the  Company  launched  Almay  Kinetin  Skincare  Advanced  Anti-Aging 
Series featuring Kinetin, in a patented technology, and High Dimension hair color, a revolutionary 10-minute home 
permanent hair color, compared to many of the Company’s competitors’ home permanent hair color which require 
two to three times as long. 

The Company believes that its Edison, New Jersey facility is one of the most extensive cosmetics research and 
development facilities in the United States.  The scientists at the Edison facility are responsible for all of the Company's 
new product research worldwide, performing research for new products, ideas, concepts and packaging.  The research 
and  development  group  at  the  Edison  facility  also  performs  extensive  safety  and  quality  tests  on  the  Company's 
products, including toxicology, microbiology and package testing.  Additionally, quality control testing is performed at 
each manufacturing facility. 

As of December 31, 2001, the Company employed approximately 160 people in its research and development 
activities,  including  specialists  in  pharmacology,  toxicology,  chemistry,  microbiology,  engineering,  biology, 
dermatology  and  quality  control.    In  2001,  2000  and  1999,  the  Company  spent  approximately  $24.4  million,  $27.3 
million and $32.9 million, respectively, on research and development activities. 

Manufacturing and Related Operations and Raw Materials  

Since  late  2000,  the  Company  completed  a  number  of  measures  related  to  rationalizing  its  global 
manufacturing capacity, which are designed to substantially reduce costs and increase operating efficiencies.  The 
Company sold or closed approximately 55% of its manufacturing and distribution facility square footage, including: 

• 

• 
• 

• 

• 

the  sale  of  the  Company’s  Phoenix,  Arizona  facility  in  May  2001  (a  portion  of  which  the 
Company leased back through the end of 2001); 
the shutdown  of the  Company’s manufacturing facility in Mississauga, Canada; 
the sale of the Company’s manufacturing facility in Maesteg, Wales (UK) in July 2001; as part of 
this sale the Company entered into a long-term supply agreement with the purchaser pursuant to 
which  the  purchaser  manufactures  and  supplies  to  the  Company  cosmetics  and  personal  care 
products for sale throughout Europe; 
the  closure  of  the  Company’s  manufacturing  facilities  in  Auckland,  New  Zealand  (which  was 
completed  in  late  2000),  which  manufacturing  activities  were  consolidated  into  the  Company’s 
facility in Australia; and  
the  sale  of  the  Company’s  manufacturing  facility  in  São  Paulo,  Brazil  in  July  2001  (which  was 
completed as part of the sale of the Company’s Colorama brand); as part of this sale the purchaser 
manufactures for the Company in Brazil.

In  connection  with  the  sale  of  the  Phoenix  facility  and  the  closing  of  the  Canadian  facility,  the  Company 
consolidated  North  American  manufacturing  into  its  Oxford,  North  Carolina  facility,  which  consolidation  was 
completed in late 2001.  Revlon Beauty Tools for sale throughout the world are manufactured and/or assembled at the 
Company's Irvington, New Jersey facility.    

During  2001,  cosmetics  and  personal  care  products  also  were  produced  at  the  Company's  facilities  in 
Venezuela, Brazil (which was sold as noted above), France and South Africa and personal care products in Mexico.  
The  Company  continually  reviews  its  manufacturing  needs  against  its  manufacturing  capacity  for  opportunities  to 
reduce costs and produce more efficiently. 

The Company purchases raw materials and components throughout the  world.  The Company continuously 
pursues  reductions  in  cost  of  goods  through  the  global  sourcing  of  raw  materials  and  components  from  qualified 
vendors,  utilizing its large purchasing capacity to  maximize  cost savings.  The global  sourcing of raw  materials and 
components  from  accredited  vendors  also  ensures  the  quality  of  the  raw  materials  and  components.    The  Company 
believes that alternate sources of raw materials and components exist and does not anticipate any significant shortages 
of, or difficulty in obtaining, such materials. 

Distribution  

The  Company's  products  are  sold  in  more  than  100  countries  across  five  continents.    The  Company's 
worldwide sales force had approximately 500 people as of December 31, 2001, including a dedicated sales force for 
cosmetics,  skin  care,  fragrance  and  personal  care  products  in  the  mass-market  distribution  channel  in  the  U.S.    In 
addition,  the  Company  utilizes  sales  representatives  and  independent  distributors  to  serve  specialized  markets  and 
related distribution channels. 

United States and Canada.  Net sales in the United States and Canada accounted for approximately 68% of 
the Company's 2001 net sales, a majority of which were made in the mass-market distribution channel.  The Company 
also sells a broad range of consumer products to United States Government military exchanges and commissaries.  The 
Company licenses its trademarks to select manufacturers for products that the Company believes have the potential to 
extend the Company's brand names and image.   As of December 31, 2001, 11 licenses  were in effect relating to 14 
product categories to be marketed principally in the mass-market distribution channel.  Pursuant to such licenses, the 
Company  retains  strict  control  over  product  design  and  development,  product  quality,  advertising  and  use  of  its 
trademarks.    These  licensing  arrangements  offer  opportunities  for  the  Company  to  generate  revenues  and  cash  flow 
through royalties. 

As  part  of  its  strategy  to  increase  consumption  of  the  Company's  products  at  retail,  the  Company  has 
increased the number of retail merchandisers who stock and maintain the Company's point of sale retail displays to 
insure  high  selling  SKUs  are  in  stock  and  to  insure  the  optimal  presentation  of  the  Company's  product  in  retail 
outlets.    Additionally,  the  Company  has  upgraded  the  technology  available  to  its  sales  force  to  provide  real-time 
information regarding inventory levels and other relevant information. 

The  Company  also  intends  to  update  its  retail  presence  and  is  evaluating  and  testing  in  retail  stores  a  new 
merchandising  wall  that  is  designed  to  help  drive  impulse  purchases  by  consumers.    The  Company  also  intends  to 
update the image of the Revlon brand through the introduction of new graphics and package designs. 

International.   Net  sales  outside  the  United  States  and  Canada  accounted  for  approximately  32%  of  the 
Company's  2001  net  sales.    The  ten  largest  countries  in  terms  of  these  sales,  which  include  the  United  Kingdom, 
Mexico,  Australia,  Brazil,  France,  South  Africa,  Venezuela,  Hong  Kong,  Argentina  and  Italy,  accounted  for 
approximately  25%  of  the  Company's  net  sales  in  2001.    The  Company  distributes  its  products  through  drug 
stores/chemists,  hypermarkets/mass  volume  retailers  and  variety  stores.    The  Company  also  distributes  outside  the 
United  States  through  department  stores  and  specialty  stores  such  as  perfumeries.    At  December  31,  2001,  the 
Company  actively  sold  its  products  through  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  established  in  20  countries  outside  of  the 
United States and through a large number of distributors and licensees elsewhere around the world.

Customers  

The Company's principal customers include large mass volume retailers and chain drug stores, including such 
well-known retailers as Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, Walgreen, Rite Aid, CVS, Eckerd, Albertsons Drugs and Longs in 
the United States, Boots in the United Kingdom, and Wal-Mart internationally.  Wal-Mart and its affiliates worldwide 
accounted  for  approximately  19.9%  of  the  Company's  2001  consolidated  net  sales,  before  the  EITF  Issue  01-9 
adjustment.    As  a  result  of  the  Company’s  dispositions  of  certain  non-core  assets,  including  certain  international 
businesses,  the  Company  expects  that  for  future  periods  a  small  number  of  other  customers  will,  in  the  aggregate, 
account  for a large portion of  the  Company’s  net sales.   Although the  Company’s loss of Wal-Mart or one or  more 
other customers that may account for a significant portion of the Company’s sales, or any significant decrease in sales 
to  any  of  these  customers,  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s  business,  financial  condition  or 
results of operations. The Company has no reason to believe that any such loss of customer or decrease in sales will 
occur. In January 2002, Kmart Corporation filed a bankruptcy petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. 
Bankruptcy  Code.  Less  than  5%  of  the  Company’s  2001  net  sales  were  made  to  Kmart.  The  Company  plans  to 
continue doing business with Kmart for the foreseeable future and accordingly, based upon the information currently 
available,  believes  that  Kmart’s  bankruptcy  proceedings  will  not  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s 
business, financial condition or results of operations.   

Competition  

The consumer products business is highly competitive, characterized by vigorous competition throughout the 
world.    The  Company  competes  on  the  basis  of  numerous  factors,  including  brand  recognition,  product  quality, 
performance  and  price  and  the  extent  to  which  consumers  are  educated  on  product  benefits,  each  of  which  have  a 
marked  influence  on  consumers'  choices  among  competing  products  and  brands.    Advertising,  promotion, 
merchandising and packaging, and the timing of new product introductions and line extensions, also have a significant 
impact  on  buying  decisions,  and  the  structure  and  quality  of  the  Company’s  sales  force  affect  product  reception, 
in-store position, permanent display space and inventory levels in retail outlets. The Company has experienced declines 
in its market shares in the U.S. mass market in various product categories since late 1998 and there can be no assurance 
that  such  declines  will  not  continue.    In  addition,  the  Company  competes  in  selected  product  categories  against  a 
number  of  multinational  companies,  some  of  which  are  larger  and  have  substantially  greater  resources  than  the 
Company, and which may therefore have the ability to spend more aggressively on advertising and marketing and have 
more  flexibility  to  respond  to  changing  business  and  economic  conditions  than  the  Company.    Certain  of  the 
Company’s competitors have increased their spending on discounting and promotional activities in U.S. mass-market 
cosmetics.    In  addition  to  products  sold  in  the  mass-market  and  demonstrator-assisted  distribution  channels,  the 
Company's products also compete with similar products sold door-to-door or through mail order or telemarketing by 
representatives of direct sales companies.  The Company's principal competitors include L'Oréal S.A., The Procter & 
Gamble Company, Unilever N.V. and The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. 

Patents, Trademarks and Proprietary Technology  

The Company's major trademarks are registered in the United States and in well over 100 other countries, and 
the  Company  considers  trademark  protection  to  be  very  important  to  its  business.    Significant  trademarks  include 
Revlon,  ColorStay,  Revlon  Age  Defying,  Skinlights,  Absolutely  Fabulous,  High  Dimension,  Frost  &  Glow, 
Illuminance, Flex, Cutex (outside the U.S.), Mitchum, Eterna 27, Ultima II, Almay, Almay Kinetin, Charlie, Jean 
Naté, Fire & Ice, Moon Drops, Super Lustrous, Wonderwear and Colorsilk.  

The  Company  utilizes  certain  proprietary  or  patented  technologies  in  the  formulation  or  manufacture  of  a 
number of the Company's products, including ColorStay lipcolor and cosmetics, ColorStay hair color, classic Revlon 
nail  enamel,  Skinlights  skin  brightener,  High  Dimension  hair  color,  Super  Top  Speed  nail  enamel,  Revlon  Age 
Defying foundation and cosmetics, New Complexion makeup, Wonderwear foundation and lipstick, Almay Kinetin 
skin care, Time-Off  makeup,  Amazing  Lasting cosmetics,  Almay One  Coat eye  makeup and  cosmetics and Vital 
Radiance  skin  care  products.  The  Company  also  protects  certain  of  its  packaging  and  component  concepts  through 
design patents.  The Company considers its proprietary technology and patent protection to be important to its business.

Government Regulation 

The  Company  is  subject  to  regulation  by  the  Federal  Trade  Commission  and  the  Food  and  Drug 
Administration (the "FDA") in the United States, as  well as various other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory 
authorities.  The Oxford, North  Carolina  manufacturing  facility is registered  with the FDA as a drug  manufacturing 
establishment,  permitting  the  manufacture  of  cosmetics  that  contain  over-the-counter  drug  ingredients  such  as 
sunscreens.  Compliance with federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations pertaining to discharge of materials 
into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, has not had, and is not anticipated to 
have, a material effect upon the capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company.  State and local 
regulations in the United States that are designed to protect consumers or the environment have an increasing influence 
on the Company’s product claims, contents and packaging. 

Industry Segments, Foreign and Domestic Operations 

The  Company  operates  in  a  single  segment.    Certain  geographic,  financial  and  other  information  of  the 

Company is set forth in Note 18 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. 

Employees 

As of December 31, 2001, the Company employed the equivalent of approximately 6,000 full-time persons.  
As  of  December  31,  2001,  approximately  130  of  such  employees  in  the  United  States  were  covered  by  collective 
bargaining agreements.  The Company believes that its employee relations are satisfactory.  Although the Company has 
experienced  minor  work  stoppages  of  limited  duration  in  the  past  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business,  such  work 
stoppages have not had a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.   

Item 2. Properties 

The  following  table  sets  forth  as  of  December  31,  2001  the  Company's  major  manufacturing,  research  and

Canada  (and  consolidated  the  cosmetics  manufacturing  operations  into  the  Company’s  Oxford,  North  Carolina 
facility), Maesteg, Wales (UK), São Paulo, Brazil, and New Zealand (see “Manufacturing and Related Operations 
and Raw Materials”).  In addition to the facilities described above, the Company owns and leases additional facilities 
in various areas throughout the world, including the lease for the Company's executive offices in New York, New York 
(346,000  square  feet,  of  which  approximately  6,000  square  feet  were  sublet  to  affiliates  of  the  Company  and 
approximately 171,000 square feet  were sublet to  unaffiliated third parties as of December 31, 2001).   Management 
considers the Company's facilities to be well-maintained and satisfactory for the Company's operations, and believes 
that the Company's facilities and third party contractual supplier arrangements provide sufficient capacity for its current 
and expected production requirements.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings  

The Company is involved in various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of its business.  
The Company believes that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate is unlikely to have a material 
adverse effect on the business or consolidated financial condition of the Company. 

On April 17, 2000, the plaintiffs in the six purported class actions filed in October and November 1999 by 
each  of  Thomas  Comport,  Boaz  Spitz,  Felix  Ezeir  and  Amy  Hoffman,  Ted  Parris,  Jerry  Krim  and  Dan  Gavish 
individually and allegedly on behalf of others similarly situated to them against Revlon, Inc., certain of its present 
and  former  officers  and  directors  and  the  parent  of  Revlon,  Inc.,  REV  Holdings  Inc.  (“REV  Holdings”),  alleging 
among  other  things,  violations  of  Rule  10b-5  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934,  filed  an  amended 
complaint,  which  consolidated  all  of  the  actions  under  the  caption  “In  Re  Revlon,  Inc.  Securities  Litigation”  and 
limited the alleged class to security purchasers during the period from October 29, 1997 through October 1, 1998.  
In June 2000, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint, which motion was denied in substantial part 
in March 2001.  The Company believes the allegations contained in the amended complaint are without merit and is 
vigorously defending against them. 

A purported class action lawsuit was filed on September 27, 2000, in the United States District Court for 
the  Southern  District  of  New  York  on  behalf  of  Dan  Gavish,  Tricia  Fontan  and  Walter  Fontan  individually  and 
allegedly on behalf of all others similarly situated who purchased the securities of Revlon, Inc. and REV Holdings 
between  October  2,  1998  and  September  30,  1999  (the  "Second  Gavish  Action").  In  November  2001,  plaintiffs 
amended  their  complaint.    The  amended  complaint  alleges,  among  other  things,  that  Revlon,  Inc.,  certain  of  its 
present  and  former  officers  and  directors  and  REV  Holdings  violated,  among  other  things,  Rule  10b-5  under  the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  In December 2001, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint.  The 
Company believes the allegations in the amended complaint are  without  merit and, if its  motion to dismiss is  not 
granted, intends to vigorously defend against them. 

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders 

No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by 

this report.

entitled, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products” (the 
“Guidelines”), which addresses when sales incentives and discounts should be recognized, as well as where the related 
revenues and expenses should be classified in the financial statements.  The Company adopted the earlier portion of 
these new Guidelines (formerly EITF Issue 00-14) addressing certain sales incentives effective January 1, 2001, and

the Charles of the Ritz business.  The transaction has been accounted for at historical cost in a manner similar to that of

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 

(dollars in millions) 

Overview 

The  Company  operates  in  a  single  segment  and  manufactures,  markets  and  sells  an  extensive  array  of 

cosmetics and skin care, fragrances and personal care products.  In addition, the Company has a licensing group.   

On March 30, 2000, May 8, 2000, and July 16, 2001 Products Corporation completed the dispositions of its 
worldwide  professional  products  line,  Plusbelle  brand  in  Argentina  and  Colorama  brand  in  Brazil,  respectively.  
Accordingly, the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the results of operations of the professional 
products line and the Plusbelle and Colorama brands through the dates of their respective dispositions. 

During  the  first  quarter  of  2001,  to  reflect  the  integration  of  management  reporting  responsibilities,  the 
Company  reclassified  Canada’s  results  from  its  international  operations  to  its  United  States  operations.  
Management’s discussion and analysis data reflects this change for all periods presented. 

In November 2001, the EITF reached consensus on EITF Issue 01-9, which addresses when sales incentives 
and  discounts  should  be  recognized,  as  well  as  where  the  related  revenues  and  expenses  should  be  classified  in  the 
financial statements.  The Company adopted the earlier portion of these new Guidelines (formerly EITF Issue 00-14) 
addressing  certain  sales  incentives  effective  January  1,  2001,  and  accordingly,  all  prior  period  financial  statements 
reflect the implementation of the earlier portion of the Guidelines.  

 In September 2001, Revlon, Inc. acquired from Holdings and contributed to Products Corporation all of the 
assets and liabilities of the Charles of the Ritz business.  The transaction has been accounted for at historical cost in a 
manner similar to that of a pooling of interests and, accordingly, all prior period financials statements presented have 
been restated as if the acquisition took place at the beginning of such periods.   

Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies: 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to 
the reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity 
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Actual results could differ significantly 
from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions.  The Company believes that the following discussion 
addresses the Company’s most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of 
the  Company’s  financial  condition  and  results  and  require  management’s  most  difficult,  subjective  and  complex 
judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.   

Sales Returns: 

The  Company  allows  customers  to  return  their  unsold  products  when  they  meet  certain  Company-
established  criteria  as  outlined  in  the  Company’s  trade  terms.    The  Company  regularly  reviews  and  revises  when 
deemed  necessary  its  estimates  of  sales  returns  based  primarily  upon  actual  returns,  planned  product 

F-13 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
discontinuances, and promotional sales, which would permit customers to return items based upon the Company’s 
trade  terms.  The  Company  records  estimated  sales  returns  as  a  reduction  to  sales,  cost  of  sales  and  accounts 
receivable  and  an  increase  to  inventory.    Cost  of  sales  includes  the  cost  of  refurbishment  of  returned  products. 
Returned  products  which  are  recorded  as  inventories  are  valued  based  upon  expected  realizablity.  The  physical 
condition and marketability of the returned products are the major factors considered by the Company in estimating 
realizable  value.  Actual  returns,  as  well  as  realized  values  on  returned  products,  may  differ  significantly,  either 
favorably or unfavorably, from our estimates if factors such as economic conditions, customer inventory levels or 
competitive conditions differ from our expectations. 

Trade Support Costs: 

In order to support the retail trade, the Company has various performance-based arrangements with retailers 
to  reimburse  them  for  all  or  a  portion  of  their  promotional  activities  related  to  the  Company’s  products.    The 
Company  regularly  reviews  and  revises,  when  deemed  necessary,  estimates  of  costs  to  the  Company  for  these 
promotions based on estimates of what has been incurred by the retailers.  Actual costs incurred by the Company 
may differ significantly if factors such as the level and success of the retailers’ programs or other conditions differ 
from our expectations. 

Inventories: 

Inventories  are  stated  at  the  lower  of  cost  or  market  value.    Cost  is  principally  determined  by  the  first-in, 
first-out method. The Company records adjustments to the value of inventory based upon its forecasted plans to sell its 
inventories.  The  physical  condition  (e.g.,  age  and  quality)  of  the  inventories  is  also  considered  in  establishing  its 
valuation. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from actual 
requirements  if  future  economic  conditions,  customer  inventory  levels  or  competitive  conditions  differ  from  our 
expectations. 

Property, Plant and Equipment and Other Assets: 

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated 
useful  lives  of  such  assets.    Changes  in  circumstances  such  as  technological  advances,  changes  to  the  Company’s 
business  model  or  changes  in  the  Company’s  capital  strategy  can  result  in  the  actual  useful  lives  differing  from  the 
Company’s  estimates.    In  those  cases  where  the  Company  determines  that  the  useful  life  of  property,  plant  and 
equipment should be shortened, the Company would depreciate the net book value in excess of the salvage value, over 
its revised remaining useful life thereby increasing depreciation expense.  Factors such as changes in the planned use of 
fixtures or software or closing of facilities could result in shortened useful lives. 

Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangibles other than goodwill, are reviewed by the Company 
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any such asset may 
not be recoverable.  The estimate of cash flow is based upon, among other things, certain assumptions about expected 
future operating performance.  The Company’s estimates of undiscounted cash flow may differ from actual cash flow 
due to, among other things, technological changes, economic conditions, changes to its business model or changes in its 
operating performance.  If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value, 
the  Company  recognizes  an  impairment  loss,  measured  as  the  amount  by  which  the  carrying  value  exceeds  the  fair 
value of the asset.  

Pension Benefits: 

The  Company  sponsors  pension  and  other  retirement  plans  in  various  forms  covering  substantially  all 
employees who meet eligibility requirements.  Several statistical and other factors which attempt to anticipate future 
events are used in calculating the expense and liability related to the plans.  These factors include assumptions about 
the  discount  rate,  expected  return  on  plan  assets  and  rate  of  future  compensation  increases  as  determined  by  the 
Company, within certain guidelines.  In addition, the Company’s actuarial consultants also use subjective factors such 
as withdrawal and mortality rates to estimate these factors.  The actuarial assumptions used by the Company may differ 
materially  from  actual results due to changing  market and economic conditions, higher or lower  withdrawal rates or 
longer  or  shorter  life  spans  of  participants.    These  differences  may  result  in  a  significant  impact  to  the  amount  of 

F-14 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
pension expense recorded by the Company.  Due to decreases in interest rates and declines in the income of assets in 
the plans, it is expected that the pension expense for 2002 will be significantly higher than in recent years. 

Results of Operations 

In order to provide a more meaningful comparison of results from operations, the Company’s discussion is 
presented  on  an  ongoing  operations  basis.  The  following  table  sets  forth  certain  summary  unaudited  data  for  the 
Company  for  each  of  the  last  three  years  reconciling  the  Company’s  actual  as  reported  results  to  the  ongoing 
operations, after giving effect to the following: (i) the disposition of the worldwide professional products line, and 
the Plusbelle and Colorama brands, assuming such transactions occurred on January 1, 1999; (ii) the elimination of 
restructuring costs in the period incurred; and (iii) the elimination of additional costs associated with the closing of 
the Phoenix and Canada facilities that were included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses 
(“SG&A”) and executive severance costs that were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the 
period incurred (after giving effect thereto, the “Ongoing Operations”).  The adjustments are based upon available 
information and certain assumptions that our  management believes are reasonable and do not represent pro forma 
adjustments prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X.  The summary unaudited data for the Ongoing Operations 
does not purport to represent the results of operations or our financial position that actually would have occurred had 
the foregoing transactions referred to in (i) above been consummated on January 1, 1999.

Year ended December 31, 2001 compared with year ended December 31, 2000 

Net sales  

Net sales  were $1,321.5 and $1,447.8 for 2001 and 2000, respectively, a decrease of $126.3, or 8.7% on a 
reported basis (a decrease of 6.0% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).  The decline in consolidated net sales for year ended 
2001 as compared with the year ended 2000 is primarily due to the sale of the worldwide professional products line and 
the Plusbelle brand in Argentina in the first and third quarters of 2000, respectively, and the Colorama brand in Brazil 
in July of 2001. 

Net sales of the Ongoing Operations were $1,305.1 and $1,303.7 for 2001 and 2000, respectively (an increase 

of 2.6% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).  

United States and Canada.  Net sales in the United States and Canada were $901.0 for 2001 compared with 
$895.8 for 2000, an increase of $5.2, or 0.6%.  Net sales of the Company’s Ongoing Operations in the United States 
and Canada were $901.0 for 2001, compared with $860.1 for 2000, an increase of $40.9, or 4.8%. The increase for 
2001 of 4.8%,  was driven primarily by  lower  sales returns and allowances of $55.7 as  a result of  the  Company’s 
revised  trade  terms,  which  was  partially  offset  by  reduced  sales  volume  of  $14.8.    This  volume  decline  is  net  of 
$14.0 of increased sales in the fourth quarter of 2001 resulting from the decision by major U.S. retail customers to 
shift planned plan-o-gram timing for 2002 new products. 

International.  Net sales in the Company’s international operations were $420.5 for the 2001, compared with 
$552.0 for 2000, a decrease of $131.5, or 23.8% on a reported basis (a decrease of 17.7% on a constant U.S. dollar 
basis).    The  decline  for  year  ended  2001  as  compared  with  the  year  ended  2000  is  primarily  due  to  the  sale  of  the 
worldwide  professional  products  line  and  the  Plusbelle  brand  in  Argentina  in  2000,  respectively,  and  the  Colorama 
brand in Brazil in July of 2001. 

Net sales in the Company’s international Ongoing Operations  (“Ongoing International Operations”) were 
$404.1 and $443.6 for 2001 and 2000, respectively, a decrease of $39.5, or 8.9%, on a reported basis (a decrease of 
2.4% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).  

Ongoing  International  Operations  sales  are  divided  by  the  Company  into  three  geographic  regions.    In 
Europe and Africa, which comprises Europe, the Middle East and Africa, net sales decreased by 8.8% on a reported 
basis  to  $160.2  for  2001,  as  compared  with  2000  (a  decrease  of  1.6%  on  a  constant  U.S.  dollar  basis).    In  Latin 
America, which comprises Mexico, Central America, South America and Puerto Rico, net sales decreased by 7.4% 
on a reported basis to $131.9 for 2001, as compared with 2000 (a decrease of 2.1% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).  
In  the  Far  East,  net  sales  decreased  by  10.8%  on  a  reported  basis  to  $112.0  for  2001,  as  compared  with  2000  (a 
decrease  of  3.9%  on  a  constant  U.S.  dollar  basis).    Net  sales  in  the  Company’s  international  operations  may  be 
adversely  affected  by  weak  economic  conditions,  political  uncertainties,  adverse  currency  fluctuations,  and 
competitive activities. 

The  decrease  in  net  sales  for  2001,  as  compared  to  2000,  for  Ongoing  International  Operations  on  a 
comparable  currency  basis,  was  primarily  due  to  the  increased  competitive  activity  in  Japan,  Hong  Kong  and 
Australia  (which  factor  the  Company  estimates  contributed  to  an  approximately  1.9%  reduction  in  net  sales),  a 
reduction in sales volume in certain tourist related markets in Latin America (which factor the Company estimates 
contributed to an approximately 0.9% reduction in net sales), the conversion of an operation to a distributor in 2001 
(which factor the Company estimates contributed to an approximately 0.9% reduction in net sales) and difficulties in 
the  economy  and  increased  sales  returns  in  the  Company’s  Argentine  operation  (which  factor  the  Company 
estimates contributed to an approximately 1.4% reduction in net sales), offset by increased new products in China, 
Brazil,  South  Africa  and  Mexico  (which  factor  the  Company  estimates  contributed  to  an  approximately  3.1% 
increase in net sales).

Gross profit 

Gross  profit  was  $777.3  for  2001,  compared  with  $873.5  for  2000.    As  a  percentage  of  net  sales,  gross 
profit  margins  were 58.8% for 2001 compared  with 60.3% for 2000.  The decline in  gross profit and  gross profit 
margin in 2001 compared to 2000 is due to $38.2 ($6.1 of which represents increased depreciation recorded for the 
Phoenix  facility  –  See  Note  2)  and  $4.9  of  additional  consolidation  costs  associated  with  the  shutdown  of  the 
Phoenix and Canada facilities in 2001 and 2000, respectively.  This decline is partially offset by the improvement in 
sales returns and allowances and the dispositions of lower margin businesses.  Gross profit and gross profit margin 
for Ongoing Operations were $809.0 and 62.0%, respectively, in 2001 compared with gross profit and gross profit 
margin  of  $800.6  and  61.4%  in  2000.    The  increase  in  gross  profit  margin  for  2001  is  primarily  related  to  the 
improvement in sales returns and allowances versus 2000. 

SG&A expenses 

SG&A expenses were $723.1for 2001, compared with $803.5 for 2000.  SG&A expenses for the Ongoing 
Operations, which excludes $5.4 of additional consolidation costs associated with the shutdown of the Phoenix and 
Canada facilities in 2001, were $708.6 for 2001, compared with $731.3 for 2000.  The decrease in SG&A expenses 
for our Ongoing Operations for 2001, as compared to the comparable 2000 period, is due primarily to the reduction 
of  departmental  general  and  administrative  expenses  from  $332.1  in  2000  to  $283.0  for  2001  as  a  result  of  the 
Company’s restructuring efforts, partially offset by an increase in brand support expenses from $332.9 for the 2000 
to $350.7 for 2001.   

Restructuring costs   

In  the  first  quarter  of  2000,  the  Company  recorded  a  charge  of  $9.5  relating  to  the  1999  restructuring 
program  that  began  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  1999.    The  Company  continued  to  implement  the  1999  restructuring 
program during the second quarter of 2000 during which it recorded a charge of $5.1.  

During  the  third  quarter  of  2000,  the  Company  continued  to  re-evaluate  its  organizational  structure.    As 
part of this re-evaluation, the Company initiated a new restructuring program in line with the original restructuring 
plan  developed  in  late  1998,  designed  to  improve  profitability  by  reducing  personnel  and  consolidating 
manufacturing facilities.  The Company recorded a charge of $13.7 in the third quarter of 2000 for programs begun 
in  such  quarter,  as  well  as  for  the  expanded  scope  of  programs  previously  commenced.    The  2000  restructuring 
program  focused  on  the  Company’s  plans  to  close  its  manufacturing  operations  in  Phoenix,  Arizona  and 
Mississauga, Canada and to consolidate its cosmetics production into its plant in Oxford, North Carolina.  The 2000 
restructuring  program  also  includes  the  remaining  obligation  for  excess  leased  real  estate  in  the  Company’s 
headquarters,  consolidation  costs  associated  with  the  Company  closing  its  facility  in  New  Zealand,  and  the 
elimination of several domestic and international executive and operational positions, each of which were effected to 
reduce and streamline corporate overhead costs. In the  fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a charge of 
$25.8 related to the 2000 restructuring program, principally for additional employee severance and other personnel 
benefits and to consolidate worldwide operations. 

In the first, second, third and fourth quarters of 2001, the Company recorded charges of $14.6, $7.9, $3.0 
and $12.6, respectively, related to the 2000 restructuring program, principally for additional employee severance and 
other personnel benefits, relocation and other costs related to the consolidation of worldwide operations. The charge 
in the fourth quarter of 2001 also was for an adjustment to previous estimates of approximately $6.6.   

The  Company  anticipates  annualized  savings  of  approximately  $25  to  $30  relating  to  the  restructuring 

charges recorded during 2001. 

Other expenses (income) 

Interest expense was $140.5 for 2001 compared with $144.5 for 2000.  The decrease in interest expense for 
2001, as compared to 2000, is primarily due to the repayment of borrowings under the 1997 Credit Agreement with 
the net proceeds from the disposition of the worldwide professional products line, the Plusbelle brand in Argentina

and the Colorama brand in Brazil and by lower interest rates under the Credit Agreement, partially offset by interest 
on the 12% Notes (which were issued in November 2001). 

Sale of product line, brands and facilities, net  

Described  below  are  the  principal  sales  of  certain  brands  and  facilities  entered  into  by  Products 

Corporations during 2001: 

In December 2001, Products Corporation sold a facility in Puerto Rico for approximately $4.  In connection 
with such disposition, the Company recorded a pre-tax and after-tax gain on the sale of $3.1 in the fourth quarter of 
2001. 

In July 2001, Products Corporation completed the disposition of the Colorama brand of cosmetics and hair 
care  products,  as  well  as  Products  Corporation’s  manufacturing  facility  located  in  São  Paulo,  Brazil,  for 
approximately  $57.    Products  Corporation  used  $22  of  the  net  proceeds,  after  transaction  costs  and  retained 
liabilities,  to  permanently  reduce  commitments  under  the  1997  Credit  Agreement.    In  connection  with  such 
disposition, the Company recognized a pre-tax and after-tax loss of $6.7.   

In July 2001, Products Corporation completed the disposition of its subsidiary that owned and operated its 
manufacturing facility in Maesteg, Wales (UK), including all production equipment.  As part of this sale, Products 
Corporation  entered  into  a  long-term  supply  agreement  with  the  purchaser  pursuant  to  which  the  purchaser 
manufactures  and  supplies  to  Products  Corporation  cosmetics  and  personal  care  products  for  sale  throughout 
Europe.  The purchase price was approximately $20.0, $10.0 of which was received on the closing date and $10.0 is 
to be received over a six-year period, a portion of which is contingent upon certain future events.  In connection with 
such disposition, the Company recognized a pre-tax and after-tax loss of $8.6. 

In  May  2001,  Products  Corporation  sold  its  Phoenix,  Arizona  facility  for  approximately  $7  and  leased  it 
back through the end of 2001.  After recognition of increased depreciation in the first quarter of 2001, the Company 
recorded a loss on the sale of $3.7 in the second quarter of 2001, which is included in SG&A expenses. 

In April 2001, Products Corporation sold land in Minami Aoyama near Tokyo, Japan and related rights for 
the  construction  of  a  building  on  such  land  (the  “Aoyama  Property”)  for  approximately  $28.    In  connection  with 
such disposition, the Company recognized a pre-tax and after-tax loss of $0.8 during the second quarter of 2001. 

Provision for income taxes 

The  provision  for  income  taxes  was  $4.1  for  2001  compared  with  $8.6  for  2000.    The  decrease  in  the 
provision for income taxes for 2001, as compared 2000, was attributable to adjustments to certain deferred tax assets 
and  higher  taxes  associated  with  the  worldwide  professional  products  line  in  the  first  quarter  of  2000  and  lower 
taxable income in 2001 in certain markets outside the United States. 

Extraordinary item 

The extraordinary loss of $3.6 (net of taxes) in 2001 resulted primarily from the write-off of financing costs 

in connection with the 2001 Refinancing Transactions. 

Year ended December 31, 2000 compared with year ended December 31, 1999  

Net sales 

Net sales were $1,447.8 and $1,709.9 for 2000 and 1999, respectively, a decrease of $262.1, or 15.3% on a 
reported basis (a decrease of 12.8% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).  The decline in consolidated net sales for the year 
2000 as compared with 1999 is primarily due to the sale of the worldwide professional products line and the Plusbelle 
brand in Argentina. 

Net sales of the Ongoing Operations were $1,303.7 and $1,268.8 for 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase 

of $34.9, or 2.8% on a reported basis (an increase of 4.9% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).

United States and Canada.  Net sales in the United States and Canada were $895.8 for 2000 compared with 
$954.8 for 1999, a decrease of $59.0, or 6.2%.  Net sales of the Company’s Ongoing Operations in the United States 
and Canada were $860.1 for 2000 compared with $796.2 for 1999, an increase of $63.9, or 8.0%.  The increase in 
net sales is primarily due to a decline in sales returns and allowances for 2000 of $174.2.  This decline was partially 
offset  by  $110.3  of  lower  shipments  due  to  (i)  a  reduction  of  overall  U.S.  customer  inventories,  and  (ii)  reduced 
consumer demand for the Company’s cosmetics due in part to fewer new product introductions in 2000 compared to 
1999.   

International.    Net  sales  in  the  Company’s  international  operations  were  $552.0  for  2000,  compared  with 
$755.1 for 1999, a decrease of $203.1, or 26.9% on a reported basis (a decrease of 22.1% on a constant U.S. dollar 
basis). The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the worldwide professional products line and the Plusbelle brand 
in Argentina. 

Net sales of the Company’s Ongoing International Operations were $443.6 and $472.6 for 2000 and 1999, 

respectively, a decrease of $29.0, or 6.1%, on a reported basis (a decrease of 0.9% on a constant U.S. dollar basis).  

Ongoing  International  Operations  sales  are  divided  by  the  Company  into  three  geographic  regions.    In 
Europe and Africa, which comprises Europe, the Middle East and Africa, net sales decreased by 9.2% on a reported 
basis  to  $175.7  for  2000,  as  compared  with  1999  (an  increase  of  0.2%  on  a  constant  U.S.  dollar  basis).  In  Latin 
America, which comprises Mexico, Central America, South America and Puerto Rico, net sales increased by 3.4% 
on a reported basis to $142.4 for 2000, as compared with 1999 (a increase of 3.8% on a constant U.S. dollar basis). 
In  the  Far  East,  net  sales  decreased  by  11.2%  on  a  reported  basis  to  $125.5  for  2000,  as  compared  with  1999  (a 
decrease  of  7.2%  on  a  constant  U.S.  dollar  basis).  Net  sales  in  the  Company’s  international  operations  may  be 
adversely  affected  by  weak  economic  conditions,  political  and  economic  uncertainties,  adverse  currency 
fluctuations, and competitive activities. 

The  decrease  in  net  sales  for  2000,  as  compared  to  1999  for  Ongoing  International  Operations  on  a 
comparable currency basis, was primarily due to a reduction in sales volume in Japan, Hong Kong and France due to 
the  exit  of  certain  product  lines  (which  factor  the  Company  estimates  contributed  to  approximately  2.9%  of  the 
decrease in net sales on a constant U.S. dollar basis), offset by increased new product and promotional activity in 
South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Italy.  

Gross profit 

Gross  profit  was  $873.5  for  2000,  compared  with  $983.6  for  1999.    As  a  percentage  of  net  sales,  gross 
profit  margins  were  60.3%  for  2000  compared  with  57.5%  for  1999.  Gross  profit  and  gross  profit  margin  for  the 
Ongoing  Operations,  which  excludes  $4.9  of  additional  costs  associated  with  the  consolidation  of  worldwide 
operations,  were  $800.6  and  61.4%,  respectively,  in  2000  compared  with  gross  profit  and  gross  profit  margin  of 
$722.3 and 56.9%, respectively, in 1999.  The increase in  gross profit  margin  for 2000 is primarily related to the 
improvement  in  sales  returns  and  allowances  versus  1999.    This  improvement  was  partially  offset  by  a  4.4% 
increase in  manufacturing costs as a percentage of  net shipments due to lower shipments in the U.S. as discussed 
above.  

SG&A expenses 

SG&A expenses  were $803.5 for 2000, compared  with $1,155.4 for 1999.  As a percentage of  net  sales, 
SG&A  expenses  were  55.5%  for  2000  compared  with  67.6%  for  1999.    SG&A  expenses  for  the  Ongoing 
Operations, which excludes $22 of separation costs of various executives terminated in 1999, were $731.3 in 2000, 
or  56.1%  percent  of  net  sales,  compared  with  $901.6  or  71.1%  of  net  sales  in  1999.    The  decrease  in  SG&A 
expenses as a percentage of net sales during 2000 primarily reflects reduced brand support as a percentage of net 
sales from 33.8% in 1999 to 25.5% in 2000 and a decline in departmental and other SG&A expenses of $67.1 or 
16.9 % primarily due to the favorable impact of the Company’s restructuring efforts.

Restructuring costs and other, net  

In  late  1998,  the  Company  developed  a  strategy  to  reduce  overall  costs  and  streamline  operations.    To 
execute against this strategy, the Company began to develop a restructuring plan and executed the plan in several 
phases, which has resulted in several restructuring charges being recorded. 

In  the  fourth  quarter  of  1998,  the  Company  began  to  execute  the  1998  restructuring  program  which  was 
designed to realign and reduce personnel, exit excess leased real estate, realign and consolidate regional activities, 
reconfigure  certain  manufacturing  operations  and  exit  certain  product  lines.    During  the  nine-month  period  ended 
September 30, 1999, the Company continued to execute the 1998 restructuring program and recorded an additional 
net  charge  of  $20.5  principally  for  employee  severance  and  other  personnel  benefits  and  obligations  for  excess 
leased real estate primarily in the United States.  Additionally, in 1999, the Company exited a non-core business for 
which it recorded a charge of $1.6, which was included in restructuring costs and other, net.  

In  the  fourth  quarter  of  1999,  the  Company  continued  to  restructure  its  organization  and  began  a  new 
program  in  line  with  its  original  restructuring  plan  developed  in  late  1998,  principally  for  additional  employee 
severance  and  other  personnel  benefits  and  to  restructure  certain  operations  outside  the  United  States,  including 
certain  operations  in  Japan,  resulting  in  a  charge  of  $18.1.    Additionally,  during  the  fourth  quarter  of  1999  the 
Company recorded a charge of $22.0 for executive separation costs to SG&A related to this new program.  In the 
first quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a charge of $9.5 relating to the 1999 restructuring program that began in 
the fourth quarter of 1999. The Company continued to implement the 1999 restructuring program during the second 
quarter of 2000 during which it recorded a charge of $5.1.  

During  the  third  quarter  of  2000,  the  Company  continued  to  re-evaluate  its  organizational  structure.    As 
part of this re-evaluation, the Company initiated a new restructuring program in line with the original restructuring 
plan  developed  in  late  1998,  designed  to  improve  profitability  by  reducing  personnel  and  consolidating 
manufacturing facilities. The Company recorded a charge of $13.7 in the third quarter of 2000 for programs begun 
in such quarter, as well as the expanded scope of programs previously commenced.  The 2000 restructuring program 
focused on the Company’s plans to close its manufacturing operations in Phoenix, Arizona and Mississauga, Canada 
and to consolidate its cosmetics production into its plant in Oxford, North Carolina.  The 2000 restructuring program 
also  includes  the  remaining  obligation  for  excess  leased  real  estate  in  the  Company’s  headquarters,  consolidation 
costs associated with the Company closing its facility in New Zealand, and the elimination of several domestic and 
international  executive  and  operational  positions,  each  of  which  were  effected  to  reduce  and  streamline  corporate 
overhead  costs.  In  the  fourth  quarter  of  2000,  the  Company  recorded  a  charge  of  $25.8  related  to  the  2000 
restructuring program, principally for additional employee severance and other personnel benefits and to consolidate 
worldwide operations. 

Other expenses (income) 

Interest expense was $144.5 for 2000 compared with $147.9 for 1999.  The decrease in interest expense for 
2000 as compared with 1999 is primarily due to the repayment of borrowings under the 1997 Credit Agreement with 
the  net  proceeds  from  the  disposition  of  the  worldwide  professional  product  line  and  the  Plusbelle  brand  in 
Argentina, partially offset by higher interest rates under the 1997 Credit Agreement. 

Foreign currency losses (gains), net, were $1.6 for 2000 compared with $(0.5) for 1999.  Foreign currency 

losses, net for 2000, consisted primarily of losses in certain markets in Latin America.  

Sale of product line, brands and facilities, net 

On May 8, 2000, Products Corporation completed the disposition of the Plusbelle brand in Argentina.  In 
connection  with  the  disposition,  the  Company  recognized  a  pre-tax  and  after-tax  loss  of  $4.8  (See  Note  3  to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements).  

On March 30, 2000, Products Corporation completed the disposition of its worldwide professional products 
line,  including  professional  hair  care  for  use  in  and  resale  by  professional  salons,  ethnic  hair  and  personal  care 

F-20 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
products,  Natural  Honey  skin  care  and  certain  regional  toiletries  brands.    In  connection  with  the  disposition,  the 
Company recognized a pre-tax and after-tax gain of $14.8 (See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).  

Provision for income taxes 

The provision for income taxes  was $8.6 for 2000 compared with $9.1 for 1999.  The decrease for 2000 
compared  with  1999  was  primarily  attributable  to  lower  taxable  income  in  2000  in  certain  markets  outside  the 
United States. 

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources 

Net cash used for operating activities was $86.5, $84.0 and $81.8 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  
The  slight  increase  in  net  cash  used  for  operating  activities  for  2001  compared  to  2000  resulted  primarily  from  a 
higher net loss and changes in working capital, partially offset by lower purchases of permanent displays.  The slight 
increase in net cash used for operating activities for 2000 compared with 1999 resulted primarily from changes in 
working capital, partially offset by a lower net loss and lower purchases of permanent displays.  

Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities was $87.2, $322.1 and $(40.7) for 2001, 2000 and 1999, 
respectively.    Net  cash  provided  by  investing  activities  for  2001  consisted  of  net  proceeds  from  the  sale  of  the 
Company’s  Colorama  brand  in  Brazil,  the  Company’s  subsidiary  in  Maesteg,  Wales  (UK),  the  Aoyama  Property  in 
Japan, the Phoenix facility and a facility in Puerto Rico, partially offset by capital expenditures.  Net cash provided by 
investing activities  for 2000 consisted of proceeds  from the sale of  the  Company’s  worldwide professional products 
line  and  the  Plusbelle  brand  in  Argentina,  partially  offset  by  cash  used  for  capital  expenditures.    Net  cash  used  for 
investing  activities  in  1999  related  principally  to  capital  expenditures.    Net  cash  used  for  investing  activities  for 
2001, 2000 and 1999 included capital expenditures of $15.1, $19.0 and $42.3, respectively.  Investing activities in 
1999 included substantial upgrades to the Company’s management information systems. 

Net cash provided by (used for) financing activities was $46.3, $(203.7) and $117.5 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, 
respectively.  Net cash provided by financing activities for 2001 included cash drawn under the 2001 and 1997 Credit 
Agreements and proceeds from the issuance of the 12% Notes, partially offset by the repayment of borrowings under 
the 1997 Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined) with the net proceeds from the disposition of the Colorama brand in 
Brazil,  and  subsequently  with  proceeds  from  the  issuance  of  the  12%  Notes  and  proceeds  from  the  2001  Credit 
Agreement and payment of debt issuance costs in connection with the issuance of the 12% Notes and the 2001 Credit 
Agreement (as hereinafter defined).  Net cash used for financing activities for 2000 included repayments of borrowings 
under the Credit Agreement with the net proceeds from the disposition of the worldwide professional products line and 
the  Plusbelle  brand  in  Argentina  and  the  repayment  of  Products  Corporation’s  Japanese  yen-denominated  credit 
agreement (the “Yen Credit Agreement”), partially offset by cash drawn under the 1997 Credit Agreement.  Net cash 
provided by financing activities for 1999 included cash drawn under the 1997 Credit Agreement, partially offset by 
repayments  of  borrowings  under  the  Credit  Agreement,  redemption  of  the  Products  Corporation’s  9  ½%  Senior 
Notes due 1999 and repayments under the Yen Credit Agreement.   

On November 26, 2001, Products Corporation issued and sold $363 in aggregate principal amount of 12% 
Notes in a private placement, receiving gross proceeds of $350.5. Products Corporation used the proceeds from the 
12%  Notes  and  borrowings  under  the  2001  Credit  Agreement  to  repay  outstanding  indebtedness  under  Products 
Corporation’s  1997  Credit  Agreement  and  to  pay  fees  and  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  the  2001 
Refinancing Transactions, and the balance is available for general corporate purposes.  On or before February 25, 
2002,  Products  Corporation  expects  to  file  a  registration  statement  with  the  Commission  with  respect  to  the 
Exchange Offer.  

On November 30, 2001, Products Corporation entered into the 2001 Credit Agreement with a syndicate of 
lenders,  whose  individual  members  change  from  time  to  time,  which  agreement  amended  and  restated  the  credit 
agreement entered into by Products Corporation in May 1997 (as amended, the “1997 Credit Agreement”; the 2001 
Credit Agreement and the 1997 Credit Agreement are sometimes referred to as the “Credit Agreement”), and which 
matures on May 30, 2005. As of December 31, 2001, the 2001 Credit Agreement provided up to $250.0, which is 
comprised of a $117.9 term loan facility (the  “Term  Loan Facility”) and a $132.1 multi-currency revolving credit 
facility (the “Multi-Currency Facility”).  At December 31, 2001, the Term Loan Facility was fully drawn and $103.5 
was  available  under  the  Multi-Currency  Facility,  including  the  letters  of  credit.    The  2001  Credit  Agreement 

F-21 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
contains minimum EBITDA levels for the four consecutive quarters ending March 31, 2002 of $180, June 30, 2002 
through September 30, 2002 of $185, December 31, 2002 through September 30, 2003 of $210, December 31, 2003 
through September 30, 2004 of $230 and December 31, 2004 and thereafter of $250, as well as leverage ratio and 
capital  expenditure  covenants  and,  negative  covenants  consistent  with  the  1997  Credit  Agreement  with  certain 
exceptions. The Credit Facilities (other than loans in foreign currencies) bear interest as of December 31, 2001 at a 
rate equal to, at Products Corporation’s option, either (A) the Alternate Base Rate plus 3.75% (which was 4.75% at 
December  31,  2001);  or  (B)  the  Eurodollar  Rate  plus  4.75%  (which  was  3.00%  at  December  31,  2001),  which 
margins are higher than those under the 1997 Credit Agreement.  Loans in foreign currencies bear interest in certain 
limited circumstances or if mutually acceptable to Products Corporation and the relevant foreign lenders at the Local 
Rate and otherwise at the Eurocurrency Rate, in each case plus 4.75% (which was 3.49% at December 31, 2001).  
Products Corporation pays a commitment fee of 0.75% of the average daily unused portion of the Multi-Currency 
Facility.  Under the Multi-Currency Facility, the Company pays (i) to foreign lenders a fronting  fee of 0.25% per 
annum on the aggregate principal amount of specified Local Loans (which fee is retained by the foreign lenders out 
of the portion of the Applicable Margin payable to such foreign lender), (ii) to foreign lenders an administrative fee 
of 0.25% per annum on the aggregate principal amount of specified Local Loans, (iii) to the multi-currency lenders a 
letter of credit commission equal to (a) the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate loans (adjusted for the term that 
the  letter  of  credit  is  outstanding)  times  (b)  the  aggregate  undrawn  face  amount  of  letters  of  credit  and  (c)  to  the 
issuing lender a letter of credit fronting fee of 0.25% per annum of the aggregate undrawn face amount of letters of 
credit (which fee is a portion of the Applicable Margin).  

The Company's principal sources of funds are expected to be cash flow generated from operations (before 
interest), cash on hand and available borrowings under the Multi-Currency Facility of the 2001 Credit Agreement.  
The Credit Agreement, Products Corporation’s 12% Notes, Products Corporation’s 8 5/8% Notes due 2008 (the “8 
5/8% Notes”), Products Corporation’s 8 1/8% Notes due 2006 (the “8 1/8% Notes”) and Products Corporation’s 9% 
Notes due 2006 (the “9% Notes”) contain certain provisions that by their terms limit Products Corporation’s and/or 
its  subsidiaries'  ability  to,  among  other  things,  incur  additional  debt.    The  Company's  principal  uses  of  funds  are 
expected  to  be  the  payment  of  operating  expenses,  working  capital,  purchases  of  permanent  displays  and  capital 
expenditure requirements, expenses in connection with the Company’s restructuring programs referred to above and 
debt service payments.  

The Company estimates that cash payments related to the restructuring programs referred to in Note 2 to 
the Consolidated Financial Statements and executive separation costs will be $20 to $25 in 2002.  Pursuant to a tax 
sharing agreement, Revlon, Inc. may be required to make tax sharing payments to Mafco Holdings as if Revlon, Inc. 
were filing separate income tax returns, except that no payments are required by Revlon, Inc. if and to the extent that 
Products Corporation is prohibited under the Credit Agreement from making tax sharing payments to Revlon, Inc.  
The Credit Agreement prohibits Products Corporation from making any tax sharing payments other than in respect 
of state and local income taxes.  Revlon, Inc. currently anticipates that, as a result of net operating tax losses and 
prohibitions  under  the  Credit  Agreement,  no  cash  federal  tax  payments  or  cash  payments  in  lieu  of  federal  taxes 
pursuant to the tax sharing agreement will be required for 2002.  

Products Corporation enters into forward foreign exchange contracts and option contracts from time to time 
to hedge certain cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. There were no forward foreign exchange or option 
contracts outstanding at December 31, 2001.

The  Company  expects  that  cash  flows  from  operations  before  interest,  cash  on  hand  and  available 
borrowings  under  the  Multi-Currency  Facility  of  the  2001  Credit  Agreement  will  be  sufficient  to  enable  the 
Company to meet its anticipated cash requirements during 2002 on a consolidated basis, including for debt service 
and expenses in connection with the Company’s restructuring programs.  However, there can be no assurance that 
the  combination  of  cash  flow  from  operations,  cash  on  hand  and  available  borrowings  under  the  Multi-Currency 
Facility of the 2001 Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements on a consolidated 
basis.    Additionally,  in  the  event  of  a  decrease  in  demand  for  its  products  or  reduced  sales,  such  development,  if 
significant,  could  reduce  the  Company’s  cash  flow  from  operations  and  could  adversely  affect  the  Company’s 
ability  to achieve certain  financial covenants  under  the 2001 Credit  Agreement, including the  minimum  EBITDA 
covenant,  and  in  such  event  the  Company  could  be  required  to  take  measures,  including  reducing  discretionary 
spending.  If the Company is unable to satisfy such cash requirements, the Company could be required to adopt one 
or  more  alternatives,  such  as  reducing  or  delaying  purchases  of  permanent  displays,  reducing  or  delaying  capital 
expenditures, delaying or revising restructuring programs, restructuring indebtedness, selling assets or operations, or 
seeking capital contributions or loans from affiliates of the Company or issuing additional shares of capital stock of 
Revlon,  Inc.    Products  Corporation  has  received  a  commitment  from  an  affiliate  that  is  prepared  to  provide,  if 
necessary, additional financial support to Products Corporation of up to $40 on appropriate terms through December 
31,  2003.    There  can  be  no  assurance  that  any  of  such  actions  could  be  effected,  that  they  would  enable  the 
Company  to  continue  to  satisfy  its  capital  requirements  or  that  they  would  be  permitted  under  the  terms  of  the 
Company's various debt instruments then in effect.  Revlon, Inc., as a holding company, will be dependent on the 
earnings and cash flow of, and dividends and distributions from, Products Corporation to pay its expenses and to pay 
any cash dividend or distribution on Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock that may be authorized by the Board of 
Directors of Revlon, Inc.  The terms of the Credit Agreement, the 12% Notes, the 8 5/8% Notes, the 8 1/8% Notes 
and the 9% Notes generally restrict Products Corporation from paying dividends or making distributions, except that 
Products Corporation is permitted to pay dividends and make distributions to Revlon, Inc., among other things, to 
enable Revlon, Inc. to pay expenses incidental to being a public holding company, including, among other things, 
professional  fees  such  as  legal  and  accounting,  regulatory  fees  such  as  Commission  filing  fees  and  other 
miscellaneous  expenses  related  to  being  a  public  holding  company  and,  subject  to  certain  limitations,  to  pay 
dividends  or  make  distributions  in  certain  circumstances  to  finance  the  purchase  by  Revlon,  Inc.  of  its  Class  A 
Common Stock in connection with the delivery of such Class A Common Stock to grantees under the Revlon, Inc. 
Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Plan (the “Amended Stock Plan”). 

The Company is currently developing and testing a new design for its permanent display units and, subject 
to a number of factors including results from tests, the Company currently plans to begin installing them at certain 
customers’ doors during 2002.  If we proceed with such installation, we may need to accelerate the amortization of 
our  existing  display  units  beginning  in  2002.    The  scope  of  any  display  unit  replacements  has  not  yet  been 
determined  and,  therefore,  the  amount  of  additional  amortization  cannot  be  precisely  calculated.    However,  we 
estimate if we proceed with the installation of new displays that additional amortization will be in the range of $12 
to $18 during 2002.  The Company estimates that purchases of permanent displays for 2002 will be $45 to $60.  

Additionally,  the Company is evaluating its  management information systems to determine if the current 
system should be replaced with an Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) System intended to provide benefits to the 
Company  in  excess  of  the  related  purchase  and  implementation  costs.    If  we  determine  to  implement  the  ERP 
System, certain existing information systems would be amortized on an accelerated basis.  Based upon the estimated 
time  required  to  implement  an  ERP  System,  the  Company  currently  estimates  that  it  would  record  additional 
amortization  of  its  current  information  system  in  the  range  of  $15  to  $25  during  2002  if  it  proceeds  with  the 
implementation of an ERP System.  The Company estimates that capital expenditures for 2002 will be $15 to $25. 

In  the  first  quarter  of  2002,  the  Company  expects  to  record  a  charge  of  approximately  $6  related  to 

separation costs for certain former senior executives of the Company.

Disclosures about Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments 

The SEC has encouraged all public companies to aggregate all contractual commitments and commercial

Wales  (UK),  $13.4  relating  to  fixed  purchase  commitments  under  an  agreement  which  the  Company  entered 
into in connection with the sale of the Company’s manufacturing facility in São Paulo, Brazil, and the balance 
of $35.6 consists of other fixed purchase commitments for finished goods, raw materials and components. 
(b)  Such  amounts  exclude  severance  and  other  contractual  commitments  related  to  restructuring,  which  are 

discussed under “Restructuring Costs”. 

Euro Conversion  

As part of the European Economic and Monetary Union,  a single currency (the  “Euro”) has replaced the 
national  currencies  of  the  principal  European  countries  (other  than  the  United  Kingdom)  in  which  the  Company 
conducts  business  and  manufacturing.    The  conversion  rates  between  the  Euro  and  the  participating  nations’ 
currencies  were  fixed  as  of  January  1,  1999,  with  the  participating  national  currencies  being  removed  from 
circulation  between  January  1,  2002  and  June  30,  2002  and  replaced  by  Euro  notes  and  coinage.    Under  the 
regulations  governing  the  transition  to  a  single  currency,  there  is  a  “no  compulsion,  no  prohibition”  rule,  which 
states that no one can be prevented from using the Euro after January 1, 2002 and no one is obliged to use the Euro 
before  July  2002.    In  keeping  with  this  rule,  the  Company  expects  to  begin  using  the  Euro  for  invoicing  and 
payments by the end of the second quarter of 2002.  Based upon the information currently available, the Company 
does not expect that the transition to the Euro  will  have a  material adverse effect on the business or consolidated 
financial condition of the Company. 

Effect of New Accounting Standards 

In  November  of  2001,  the  EITF  reached  consensus  on  the  Guidelines,  the  second  portion  of  which 
(formerly EITF Issue 00-25) addresses vendor income statement characterization of consideration to a purchaser of 
the vendor’s products or services, including the classification of slotting fees, cooperative advertising arrangements 
and buy-downs. Certain promotional payments that are currently classified in SG&A expenses will be classified as a 
reduction  of  net  sales.  The  impact  of  the  adoption  of  the  second  portion  of  the  Guidelines  on  the  consolidated 
financial  statements  will  reduce  both  net  sales  and  SG&A  expenses  by  equal  and  offsetting  amounts  of  $43.9  in 
2001,  $38.4  in  2000  and  $80.1  in  1999,  respectively.  The  adoption  will  not  have  any  impact  on  the  Company’s

reported  operating  income  or  net  loss.    The  Company  has  adopted  the  second  portion  of  the  Guidelines  effective 
January 1, 2002. 

In  July  2001,  the  FASB  issued  Statement  No.  141,  Business  Combinations,  and  Statement  No.  142, 
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.  Statement 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for 
all  business  combinations  initiated  after  June  30,  2001  as  well  as  all  purchase  method  business  combinations 
completed after June 30, 2001.  Statement 141 also specifies criteria that must be met in order for intangible assets 
acquired in a purchase method business combination to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill.  Statement 
142 will require that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead 
tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142.  Statement 142 will also 
require that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to 
their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the 
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.  The Company adopted the provisions of Statement 141 immediately 
and Statement 142 effective January 1, 2002.   

As of January 1, 2002, the Company expects to have unamortized goodwill in the amount of approximately 
$186,  and  unamortized  identifiable  intangible  assets  in  the  amount  of  approximately  $13.    Amortization  expense 
related  to  goodwill  was  $7.1  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2001.    Any  transitional  impairment  losses  will  be 
required to be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.  The Company has made a 
preliminary  estimate  of  the  impact  of  these  Statements  and  has  determined  that  these  Statements  will  not  have  a 
significant effect from impairment on its financial statements. 

In  August  2001,  the  FASB  issued  Statement  No.  143,  Accounting  for  Asset  Retirement  Obligations.  
Statement 143 requires recording the fair market value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in 
which a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets is incurred.  The Statement also 
requires recording the contra asset to the initial obligation as an increase to the carrying amount of the related long-
lived asset and depreciation of that cost over the life of the asset.  The liability is then increased at the end of each 
period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the initial fair value measurement.  The Company is required to 
adopt the provisions of Statement 143 effective January 1, 2003 and has not yet determined the extent of its impact, 
if any. 

In  October  2001,  the  FASB  issued  Statement  No.  144,  Accounting  for  Impairment  or  Disposal  of  Long-
Lived Assets.  Statement 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-
lived assets.  The Statement also extends the reporting requirements to report separately as discontinued operations, 
components of an entity that have either been disposed of or classified as held for sale.  The Company has adopted 
the provisions of Statement 144 effective January 1, 2002 and such adoption did not have a significant effect on its 
financial statements. 

Forward-Looking Statements  

This  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2001,  as  well  as  other  public 
documents and statements of the Company, contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  
The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements.  Such 
statements  include,  without  limitation,  the  Company’s  expectations  and  estimates  (whether  qualitative  or 
quantitative) as to: the introduction of new products; the Company’s plans to update its retail presence, evaluate, test 
and install new display walls (and the Company’s estimates of the costs of such new displays, the effects of such 
plans on the accelerated amortization of existing displays and the estimated amount of such amortization) and the 
Company’s plans to  update the image of the Revlon brand through the introduction of new  graphics and package 
designs;  its  future  financial  performance;  the  effect  on  sales  of  political  and/or  economic  conditions,  adverse 
currency fluctuations and competitive activities; the possible implementation of a new ERP System, the costs and 
benefits of such system and the effects of the adoption of such system on the accelerated amortization of existing 
information  systems  if  the  Company  proceeds  with  such  system;  restructuring  activities,  restructuring  costs,  the 
timing of such payments and annual savings and other benefits from such activities; the charges, the cash cost and 
the savings resulting from plant shutdowns, dispositions and outsourcing; the effects of revised trade terms for its 
U.S. customers, including  reduced returns; cash flow from operations, cash on hand and availability of borrowings 
under the 2001 Credit Agreement, the sufficiency of such funds to satisfy the Company’s cash requirements in 2002, 
and  the  availability  of  funds  from  capital  contributions  or  loans  from  affiliates  of  the  Company  and  the  sale  of 

F-25 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
additional  shares  of  Revlon,  Inc.;  uses  of  funds,  including  for  the  purchases  of  permanent  displays,  capital 
expenditures  (and  the  Company’s  estimates  of  the  amounts  of  such  expenses)  and  restructuring  costs  (and  the 
Company’s  estimates  of  the  amounts  of  such  costs);  the  availability  of  raw  materials  and  components  and,  with 
respect to Europe, products, including that the Company's facilities and third party contractual supplier arrangements 
will  provide  sufficient  capacity  for  the  Company’s  current  and  expected  production  requirements;  matters 
concerning  market-risk  sensitive  instruments;  the  effects  of  transition  to  the  Euro;  the  effects  of  the  adoption  of 
certain  accounting  principles,  including  the  Company’s  estimates  of  the  amounts  of  unamortized  goodwill  and 
identifiable  intangible  assets;  and  the  effects  of  the  loss  of  one  or  more  customers,  including,  without  limitation, 
Wal-Mart, and the status of the Company’s relationship with its customers.  Statements that are not historical facts, 
including  statements  about  the  Company’s  beliefs  and  expectations,  are  forward-looking  statements.    Forward-
looking  statements  can  be  identified  by,  among  other  things,  the  use  of  forward-looking  language,  such  as 
“believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecast,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled to,” 
“anticipates” or “intends” or the negative of those terms, or other variations of those terms or comparable language, 
or by discussions of strategy or intentions.  Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and 
except  for  the  Company’s  ongoing  obligations  to  disclose  material  information  under  the  U.S.  federal  securities 
laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result 
of  new  information,  future  events  or  otherwise.    Investors  are  advised,  however,  to  consult  any  additional 
disclosures the Company makes in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current 
Reports on Form 8-K to the Commission (which, among other places, can be found on the Commission’s website at 
http://www.sec.gov), as well as on the Company’s website at www.revloninc.com.   The information available from 
time to time on such website shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.  
A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-
looking  statement.    In  addition  to  factors  that  may  be  described  in  the  Company’s  filings  with  the  Commission, 
including  this  filing,  the  following  factors,  among  others,  could  cause  the  Company’s  actual  results  to  differ 
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by the Company: (i) difficulties or delays 
in developing and introducing new products or failure of customers to accept new product offerings; (ii) difficulties 
or  delays  or  unanticipated  costs  associated  with  the  Company’s  test  and  possible  implementation  of  new  display 
walls  and  new  graphics  and  package  designs;  (iii)  changes  in  consumer  preferences,  including  reduced  consumer 
demand for the Company’s color cosmetics and other current products; (iv) effects of and changes in political and/or 
economic conditions, including inflation and monetary conditions, and in trade, monetary, fiscal and tax policies in 
international  markets;  (v)  actions  by  competitors,  including  business  combinations,  technological  breakthroughs, 
new  product  offerings,  promotional  spending  and  marketing  and  promotional  successes,  including  increases  in 
market share; (vi) unanticipated costs or difficulties or delays in completing projects associated with the Company’s 
strategic plan, including in connection  with the implementation of a new ERP System; (vii) difficulties, delays or 
unanticipated  costs  or  less  than  expected  savings  and  other  benefits  resulting  from  the  Company’s  restructuring 
activities;  (viii)  difficulties  or  delays  in  implementing,  higher  than  expected  charges  and  cash  costs  or  lower  than 
expected savings  from the shutdown, disposition, outsourcing and consolidation of  manufacturing operations; (ix) 
difficulties or delays in achieving the intended results of the revised trade terms, including, without limitation, lower 
returns or unexpected consequences  from the revised trade terms including the possible  effect on sales; (x) lower 
than expected cash flow from operations, the inability to secure capital contributions or loans from affiliates of the 
Company or sell additional shares of Revlon, Inc. or the unavailability of funds under the 2001 Credit Agreement; 
(xi)  higher  than  expected  operating  expenses,  working  capital  expenses,  permanent  display  costs,  capital 
expenditures, restructuring costs or debt service payments;  (xii) difficulties or delays in sourcing raw  materials or 
components, and with respect to Europe, products; (xiii) interest rate or foreign exchange rate changes affecting the 
Company and its market sensitive financial instruments; (xiv) difficulties, delays or unanticipated costs associated 
with  the  transition  to  the  Euro;  (xv)  unanticipated  effects  of  the  Company’s  adoption  of  certain  new  accounting 
standards; and (xvi) combinations among significant customers or the loss, insolvency or failure to pay debts by a 
significant customer or customers.  Factors other than those listed above could cause the Company’s results to differ 
materially  from  expected  results.    This  discussion  is  provided  as  permitted  by  the  Private  Securities  Litigation 
Reform Act of 1995. 

Inflation 

In general, costs are affected by inflation and the effects of inflation may be experienced by the Company in 
future periods.  Management believes, however, that such effects have not been material to the Company during the 
past  three  years  in  the  United  States  or  foreign  non-hyperinflationary  countries.    The  Company  operates  in  certain 
countries around the world, such as Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela and Mexico that have experienced hyperinflation. In 

F-26 

 
 
 
 
hyperinflationary  foreign countries, the  Company attempts to mitigate the effects of inflation by increasing prices in 
line with inflation, where possible, and efficiently managing its working capital levels.   

Subsequent Events 

In  February  2002,  Products  Corporation  completed  the  disposition  of  its  subsidiaries  that  operated  its 
marketing,  sales  and  distribution  business  in  Belgium,  the  Netherlands  and  Luxembourg  (“Benelux”).    As  part  of 
this sale, Products Corporation entered into a long-term distribution agreement with the purchaser pursuant to which 
the  purchaser  distributes  the  Company’s  products  in  Benelux.    The  purchase  price  consisted  principally  of  the 
assumption of certain liabilities and deferred contingent purchase price of up to approximately $3.3 to be received 
over  approximately  a  seven-year  period.    In  connection  with  the  disposition,  the  Company  does  not  anticipate  a 
significant gain or loss.  

Effective  February  14,  2002,  Jeffrey  M.  Nugent,  the  Company's  former  President  and  Chief  Executive 
Officer,  resigned  from  employment  with  the  Company.    On  February  19,  2002,  the  Company  announced  its 
appointment of Jack L. Stahl as its President and Chief Executive Officer. 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 

Interest Rate Sensitivity 

The  Company  has  exposure  to  changing  interest  rates,  primarily  in  the  United  States.    The  Company’s 
policy is to manage interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt.  The Company 
from time to time makes use of derivative financial instruments to adjust its fixed and floating rate ratio. There were 
no such derivative financial instruments outstanding at December 31, 2001.  The table below provides information 
about the Company’s indebtedness that is sensitive to changes in interest rates.  The table presents cash flows with 
respect  to  principal  on  indebtedness  and  related  weighted  average  interest  rates  by  expected  maturity  dates.  
Weighted average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at December 31, 2001.  The 
information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is the Company’s reporting currency. 

Exchange Rate Sensitivity 

The Company manufactures and sells its products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a 
result,  is  exposed  to  movements  in  foreign  currency  exchange  rates.    In  addition,  a  portion  of  the  Company’s 
borrowings are denominated in foreign currencies, which are also subject to market risk associated with exchange 
rate movement.  The Company from time to time hedges major foreign currency cash exposures generally through 
foreign exchange forward and option contracts.  The contracts are entered into with major financial institutions to 
minimize counterparty risk.  These contracts generally have a duration of less than twelve months and are primarily 
against  the  U.S.  dollar.    In  addition,  the  Company  enters  into  foreign  currency  swaps  to  hedge  intercompany 
financing transactions.   

The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.  There were no derivative 

instruments outstanding as of December 31, 2001.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders 
Revlon, Inc.: 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Revlon, Inc. and its subsidiaries 
as  of  December  31,  2001  and  2000,  and  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  operations, 
stockholders’  deficiency  and  comprehensive  loss  and  cash  flows  for  each  of  the  years  in  the 
three-year  period  ended  December  31,  2001.    In  connection  with  our  audits  of  the  consolidated 
financial statements we have also audited the financial statement schedule as listed on the index on 
page  F-1.    These  consolidated  financial  statements  and  financial  statement  schedule  are  the 
responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. 

We conducted our  audits in accordance  with auditing standards  generally accepted in the United 
States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable 
assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement.  An  audit 
includes  examining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the 
financial  statements.  An  audit  also  includes  assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and 
significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement 
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material 
respects, the financial  position of  Revlon,  Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31,  2001 and 
2000 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year 
period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in 
the United States of America.  Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when 
considered  in  relation  to  the  basic  consolidated  financial  statements  taken  as  a  whole,  presents 
fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in millions, except per share data) 

1.   Significant Accounting Policies 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation: 

Revlon,  Inc.  (and  together  with  its  subsidiaries,  the  “Company”)  conducts  its  business 
exclusively  through  its  direct  subsidiary,  Revlon  Consumer  Products  Corporation  and  its 
subsidiaries (“Products Corporation”).  The Company manufactures and sells an extensive array of 
cosmetics  and  skin  care,  fragrances  and  personal  care  products.    Prior  to  March  30,  2000,  the 
Company sold professional products for use in and resale by professional salons.  On March 30, 
2000, the Company sold its professional products line and on May 8, 2000 sold the Plusbelle brand 
in Argentina.  On July 16, 2001 the Company sold the Colorama brand in Brazil. (See Note 3). The 
Company’s principal customers include large mass volume retailers and chain drug stores, as well 
as certain  department stores  and other specialty  stores,  such  as perfumeries.  The Company  also 
sells consumer products to United States military exchanges and commissaries and has a licensing 
group.  

Unless  the  context  otherwise  requires,  all  references  to  the  Company  mean  Revlon,  Inc. 
and its subsidiaries. Revlon, Inc., as a public holding company, has no business operations of its 
own  and  its  only  material  asset  has  been  all  of  the  outstanding  capital  stock  of  Products 
Corporation.  As such, its net (loss) income has historically consisted predominantly of its equity in 
the net (loss) income of Products Corporation and in 2001, 2000 and 1999 included approximately 
$2.6, $1.7 and $1.2, respectively, in expenses incidental to being a public holding company. 

The  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  include  the  accounts  of  the  Company  after 
elimination  of  all  material  intercompany  balances  and  transactions.    Further,  the  Company  has 
made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the 
disclosure  of  liabilities  and  the  reporting  of  revenues  and  expenses  to  prepare  these  financial 
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Actual results could differ 
from those estimates. 

The Company is an indirect majority owned subsidiary of MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings 
Inc.  (“MacAndrews  Holdings”),  a  corporation  wholly  owned  indirectly  through  Mafco  Holdings 
Inc. (“Mafco Holdings” and, together with MacAndrews Holdings, “MacAndrews & Forbes”) by 
Ronald O. Perelman.

Inc.

Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have

been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: 

Cash equivalents (primarily investments in time deposits, which have original maturities of 
three months or less) are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.  Approximately $15.3 and 
$22.2  was  restricted  and  supported  short-term  borrowings  at  December  31,  2001  and  2000, 
respectively.  (See Note 8). 

Inventories: 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost is principally determined 

by the first-in, first-out method. 

Property, Plant and Equipment and Other Assets: 

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated on a straight-line basis 
over  the  estimated  useful  lives  of  such  assets  as  follows:  land  improvements,  20  to  40  years; 
buildings and improvements, 5 to 45  years; machinery  and equipment, 3  to 17  years; and office 
furniture  and  fixtures  and  capitalized  software,  2  to  12  years.    Leasehold  improvements  are 
amortized over their estimated useful lives or the terms of the leases, whichever is shorter.  Repairs 
and  maintenance  are  charged  to  operations  as  incurred,  and  expenditures  for  additions  and 
improvements are capitalized.   

Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangibles other than goodwill, are reviewed 
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of 
an asset may not be recoverable. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying 
amount of an asset may not be recoverable, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash 
flows  (excluding  interest)  resulting  from  the  use  of  the  asset  and  its  ultimate  disposition.    If  the 
sum  of  the  undiscounted  cash  flows  (excluding  interest)  is  less  than  the  carrying  value,  the 
Company  recognizes  an  impairment  loss,  measured  as  the  amount  by  which  the  carrying  value 
exceeds the fair value of the asset. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  fourth  quarter  in  2000,  the  Company  decided  to  consolidate  its 
manufacturing  facility  in  Phoenix,  Arizona  into  its  manufacturing  facility  in  Oxford,  North 

F-41 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Carolina, which was completed in late 2001. As a result, the Company depreciated the net book 
value of the facility in excess of its estimated salvage value over its remaining useful life.   

Included  in  other  assets  are  permanent  displays  amounting  to  approximately  $91.8  and 
$111.6 (net of amortization of $62.6 and $68.3) as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, 
which  are  amortized  over  3  to  5  years.  In  addition,  the  Company  has  included  in  other  assets 
charges related to the issuance of its debt instruments amounting to approximately $33.3 and $19.0 
(net of amortization of $6.2 and $5.6) as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, which are 
amortized over the terms of the related debt instruments. 

Intangible Assets Related to Businesses Acquired:

Income Taxes: 

Income taxes are calculated using the liability method in accordance with the provisions of 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” 

Revlon, Inc., for federal income tax purposes, is included in the affiliated group of which 
Mafco  Holdings  is  the  common  parent,  and  Revlon,  Inc.’s  federal  taxable  income  and  loss  is 
included in such group’s consolidated tax return filed by Mafco Holdings.  Revlon, Inc. also may 
be  included  in  certain  state  and  local  tax  returns  of  Mafco  Holdings  or  its  subsidiaries.    For  all 
periods  presented,  federal,  state  and  local  income  taxes  are  provided  as  if  the  Company  filed  its 
own income tax returns.  On June 24, 1992, Revlon Holdings  Inc. (“Holdings”), an affiliate and 
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Mafco Holdings, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries 
and Mafco Holdings entered into a tax sharing agreement, which is described in Notes 12 and 15. 

Pension and Other Postretirement and Postemployment Benefits: 

The  Company  sponsors  pension  and  other  retirement  plans  in  various  forms  covering 
substantially all employees who meet eligibility requirements.  For plans in the United States, the 
minimum  amount  required  pursuant  to  the  Employee  Retirement  Income  Security  Act,  as 
amended, is contributed annually.  Various subsidiaries outside the United States have retirement 
plans under which funds are deposited with trustees or reserves are provided. 

The  Company  accounts  for  benefits  such  as  severance,  disability  and  health  insurance 
provided to former employees prior to their retirement when it is probable that a liability has been 
incurred and the amount of such liability can be reasonably estimated. 

Research and Development: 

Research and development expenditures  are  expensed  as incurred.  The amounts charged 

against earnings in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $24.4, $27.3 and  $32.9, respectively. 

Foreign Currency Translation: 

Assets  and  liabilities  of  foreign  operations  are  generally  translated  into  United  States 
dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date.  Income and expense items are 
generally  translated  at  the  weighted  average  exchange  rates  prevailing  during  each  period 
presented.  Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the results 
of  operations.    Gains  and  losses  resulting  from  translation  of  financial  statements  of  foreign 
subsidiaries  and  branches  operating  in  non-hyperinflationary  economies  are  recorded  as  a 
component  of  accumulated  other  comprehensive  loss  until  either  sale  or  upon  complete  or 
substantially complete liquidation by the Company of its investment in a foreign entity.  Foreign 
subsidiaries and branches operating in hyperinflationary economies translate non-monetary assets 
and liabilities at historical rates and include translation adjustments in the results of operations. 

Sale of Subsidiary Stock: 

The Company recognizes gains and losses on sales of subsidiary stock in its Consolidated 

Statements of Operations.

Class A Common Stock entitling its holder to one vote and each share of the Class B Common 
Stock entitling its holder to ten votes.  All of the shares of Class B Common Stock are owned by 
REV Holdings Inc. (“REV Holdings”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Mafco Holdings. 
Mafco Holdings beneficially owns shares of Common Stock having approximately 97.3% of the 
combined  voting  power  of  the  outstanding  shares  of  Common  Stock.  The  holders  of  the 
Company’s  two  classes  of  common  stock  are  entitled  to  share  equally  in  the  earnings  of  the 
Company from dividends, when and if declared by the Board.  Each outstanding share of Class B 
Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock. 

The Company designated 1,000 shares of Preferred Stock  as the  Series  A Preferred Stock, of  which 546 
shares are outstanding and held by REV Holdings.  The holder of Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive 
any dividends.  The Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share before any 
distribution is made to the holders of Common Stock.  The holder of the Series A Preferred Stock does not have any 
voting  rights,  except  as  required  by  law.    The  Series  A  Preferred  Stock  may  be  redeemed  at  any  time  by  the 
Company,  at  its  option,  for  $100,000  per  share.    However,  the  terms  of  Products  Corporation’s  various  debt 
agreements currently restrict Revlon, Inc.’s ability to effect such redemption by generally restricting the amount of 
dividends or distributions Products Corporation can pay to Revlon, Inc. 

The Company designated 4,333 shares of Preferred Stock as
the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred
Stock”), all of which are outstanding and held by REV Holdings.
The Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to receive dividends if
the Company declares or pays any dividends on the Company’s Class

Stock-Based Compensation:

SFAS  No.  123,  “Accounting  for  Stock-Based  Compensation,”  encourages,  but  does  not 
require  companies  to  record  compensation  cost  for  stock-based  employee  compensation  plans  at 
fair  value.    The  Company  has  chosen  to  account  for  stock-based  compensation  plans  using  the 
intrinsic  value  method  prescribed  in  Accounting  Principles  Board  (“APB”)  Opinion  No.  25, 
“Accounting  for  Stock  Issued  to  Employees,”  and  related  interpretations  including  FASB 
Interpretation  No.  44,  “Accounting  for  Certain  Transactions  Involving  Stock  Compensation,  an 
Interpretation of APB No. 25” issued in March 2000.  Accordingly,  compensation cost for stock 
options issued to employees is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the 
Company’s stock  at the  date of the  grant over the  amount  an employee  must pay  to acquire the 
stock.  (See Note 14). 

Derivative Financial Instruments:

effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows
of the hedged items.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily

forward foreign exchange contracts, to reduce the exposure of
adverse effects of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.
These contracts, which have been designated as cash flow hedges,
were entered into primarily to hedge anticipated inventory
purchases and certain intercompany payments denominated in
foreign currencies, which have maturities of less than one year.
The unrecognized income (loss) on the revaluation of forward
currency contracts is recognized in cost of sales upon expiration
of the contract.
Throughout 2001, the Company entered into these
contracts with a counterparty that is a major financial
institution, and accordingly the Company believes that the risk
of counterparty nonperformance is remote. There were no
derivative financial instruments outstanding at December 31,
2001.

The amount of the hedges’ ineffectiveness as of December 31,

2001 recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations was
not significant.

Advertising and Promotion: 

Costs  associated  with  advertising  and  promotion  are  expensed  in  the  year  incurred.  Television  advertising 
production  costs  are  expensed  the  first  time  the  advertising  takes  place.    Advertising  and  promotion  expenses  were 
$272.9, $268.7 and $352.2 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 

The Company has various arrangements with customers to reimburse them for a portion of their advertising 
costs, which provide advertising benefits to the Company.  Additionally, from time to time the Company may pay fees 
to  customers  in  order  to  expand  or  maintain  shelf  space  for  its  products.    The  costs  that  the  Company  incurs  for 
“cooperative”  advertising  programs,  end  cap  replacement,  shelf  replacement  costs  and  slotting  fees  are  expensed  as 
incurred and are currently included in SG&A expenses on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.  The 
Company adopted the second portion of EITF Issue 01-9 (formerly EITF Issue 00-25) effective January 1, 2002.  (See 
Note 19). 

Distribution Costs: 

Costs,  such  as  freight  and  handling  costs,  associated  with  distribution  are  expensed  within  SG&A  when 

incurred.  Distribution costs were $65.9, $78.4 and $102.9 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 

2. Restructuring Costs and Other, Net

In late 1998, the Company developed a strategy to reduce

overall costs and streamline operations.
strategy, the Company began to develop a restructuring plan and
executed the plan in several phases, which has resulted in
several restructuring charges being recorded.

the 1998 restructuring program which was designed to realign and
reduce personnel, exit excess leased real estate, realign and

severance and other personnel benefits and obligations for excess
leased real estate primarily in the United States.
Additionally,
in 1999, the Company exited a non-core business for which it
recorded a charge of $1.6, which was included in restructuring
costs and other, net.

In the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company continued to
restructure its organization and began a new program in line with
its original restructuring plan developed in late 1998,
principally for additional employee severance and other personnel
benefits and to restructure certain operations outside the United
States, including certain operations in Japan, resulting in a
charge of $18.1.
the Company recorded a charge of $22.0 to SG&A for executive
separation costs related to this new program.

(a) On November 30, 2001, Products Corporation entered into

the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2001
Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders, whose individual
members change from time to time, which agreement amended and
restated the credit agreement entered into by Products
Corporation in May 1997 (the “1997 Credit Agreement”; the 2001
Credit Agreement and the 1997 Credit Agreement are sometimes
referred to as the “Credit Agreement”).  On November 26, 2001, prior to closing on 
the 2001 Credit Agreement, Products Corporation issued and sold in a private placement $363 in aggregate principal 
amount of 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2005 (the "12% Notes") at a price of 96.569%, receiving gross proceeds 
of $350.5 (see footnote (e) below) (the issuance of the 12% Notes and the 2001 Credit Agreement are referred to 
herein as the “2001 Refinancing Transactions”).  Products Corporation used the proceeds from the 12% Notes and 
borrowings under the 2001 Credit Agreement to repay outstanding indebtedness under

(e)  On  November  26,  2001,  prior  to  closing  on  the  2001  Credit  Agreement,  Products 
Corporation issued and sold $363.0 in principal amount of 12% Notes in a private placement at a 
price of 96.569%, receiving gross proceeds of $350.5.  The effective interest rate on the 12% Notes 
is  13.125%.    On  November  26,  2001,  the  proceeds  of  the  12%  Notes  were  put  into  an  escrow 
account  held  by  Wilmington  Trust  Company,  which  proceeds  were  released  to  Products 
Corporation  on  November  30,  2001  upon  satisfaction  of  certain  conditions,  principally  Products 
Corporation’s  closing  of  the  2001  Credit  Agreement,  which  occurred  on  November  30,  2001.  
Products Corporation used the proceeds from the 12% Notes and borrowings under the 2001 Credit 
Agreement  to  repay  outstanding  indebtedness  under  Products  Corporation’s  1997  Credit 
Agreement  and  to  pay  fees  and  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  the  2001  Refinancing 
Transactions, and the balance is available for general corporate purposes.  On or before February 
25,  2002,  Products  Corporation  expects  to  file  a  registration  statement  with  the  Securities  and 
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to an offer to exchange the 12% Notes for 
registered notes with substantially the same terms (the “Exchange Offer”). 

The 12% Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of November 26, 2001 (the "12% Notes 

Indenture"), among Products Corporation, the guarantors party thereto, including Revlon, Inc. as parent guarantor, 
and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee. The 12% Notes are supported by guarantees 

F-60 

 
 
 
from Revlon, Inc. and, subject to certain limited exceptions, Products Corporation's domestic subsidiaries.  The 
obligations of Products Corporation under the 12% Notes and the obligations under the aforementioned guarantees 
are secured, on a second-priority basis, subject to certain limited
exceptions, primarily by (i) a mortgage on Products Corporation's facility in Oxford, North 
Carolina; (ii) the capital stock of Products Corporation and its domestic subsidiaries and 66% of the capital stock of 
Products Corporation's and its domestic subsidiaries’ first-tier foreign subsidiaries; (iii) domestic intellectual 
property and certain other domestic intangibles of Products Corporation and its domestic subsidiaries; and (iv) 
domestic inventory, accounts receivable, equipment and certain investment property of Products Corporation and its 
domestic subsidiaries. Such liens are subject to certain limitations, which among
other things, limit the ability of holders of second-priority
liens from exercising any remedies against the collateral while
the Credit Agreement or any other first-priority lien remains in
effect.   

The 12% Notes are senior secured obligations of Products
Corporation and rank pari passu in right of payment with all
existing and future Senior Debt (as defined in 12% Notes
Indenture) including the 8 1/8% Notes, the 9% Notes and the
indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, and are senior to the 8
5/8% Notes and all future subordinated indebtedness of Products
Corporation.
The 12% Notes are effectively subordinated to the
outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities of Products
Corporation’s subsidiaries.
Interest is payable on June 1 and December 1, beginning June 1,
2002.

The 12% Notes mature on December 1, 2005.

The 12% Notes may be redeemed at the option of Products
Corporation in whole or in part at any time at a redemption price
equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any to the date of redemption, plus the Applicable
Premium (as defined in the 12% Notes Indenture).

Upon a Change in Control (as defined in the 12% Notes
Indenture), subject to certain conditions, each holder of the 12%
Notes will have the right to require Products Corporation to
repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s 12% Notes at a price
equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and

(f) During 1992, Holdings made an advance of $25.0 to Products Corporation, evidenced 
by  subordinated  noninterest-bearing  demand  notes.    The  notes  were  subsequently  adjusted  by 
offsets  and  additional  amounts  loaned  by  Holdings  to  Products  Corporation.    In  1998, 
approximately  $6.8  due  to  Products  Corporation  from  Holdings  was  offset  against  the  notes 
payable  to  Holdings.    At  December  31,  2001,  the  balance  of  $24.1  is  evidenced  by 
noninterest-bearing  promissory  notes  payable  to  Holdings  that  are  subordinated  to  Products 
Corporation’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  

(g) Products Corporation borrows funds from its affiliates from time to time to supplement 
its working capital borrowings.  No such borrowings were outstanding as of December 31, 2001 
and 2000.  The interest rates for such borrowings are more favorable to Products Corporation than 
interest rates under the Credit Agreement.  The amount of interest paid by Products Corporation for 
such borrowings for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was nil, nil and  $0.5, respectively. 

The aggregate amounts of long-term debt maturities (at December 31, 2001), in the years 

2002 through 2006 are nil, nil, nil, $494.1 and $499.6, respectively, and $649.9 thereafter. 

The  Company  expects  that  cash  flows  from  operations  before  interest,  cash  on  hand  and 
available  borrowings  under  the  Multi-Currency  Facility  of  the  2001  Credit  Agreement  will  be 
sufficient  to  enable  the  Company  to  meet  its  anticipated  cash  requirements  during  2002  on  a 
consolidated  basis,  including  for  debt  service  and  expenses  in  connection  with  the  Company’s 
restructuring  programs.    However,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  the  combination  of  cash  flow 
from operations, cash on hand and available borrowings under the Multi-Currency Facility of the 
2001  Credit  Agreement  will  be  sufficient  to  meet  the  Company's  cash  requirements  on  a 
consolidated basis.  Additionally, in the event of a decrease in demand for its products or reduced 
sales, such development, if significant, could reduce the Company’s cash flow from operations 
and could adversely affect the Company’s ability to achieve certain financial covenants under the 
2001  Credit  Agreement,  including  the  minimum  EBITDA  covenant,  and  in  such  event  the 
Company could be required to take measures, including reducing discretionary spending.  If the 
Company is unable to satisfy such cash requirements, the Company could be required to adopt one 
or  more  alternatives,  such  as  reducing  or  delaying  purchases  of  permanent  displays,  reducing  or 
delaying  capital  expenditures,  delaying  or  revising  restructuring  programs,  restructuring 
indebtedness, selling assets or operations, or seeking capital contributions or loans from affiliates 
of the Company or issuing additional shares of capital stock of Revlon, Inc.  Products Corporation 
has  received  a  commitment  from  an  affiliate  that  is  prepared  to  provide,  if  necessary,  additional 
financial support to Products Corporation of up to $40 on appropriate terms through December 31, 
2003.  There  can  be  no  assurance  that  any  of  such  actions  could  be  effected,  that  they  would 
enable  the  Company  to  continue  to  satisfy  its  capital  requirements  or  that  they  would  be 
permitted under the terms of the Company’s various debt instruments then in effect. Revlon, Inc., 
as a holding  company,  will  be dependent  on the  earnings  and cash  flow  of, and  dividends  and 
distributions  from,  Products  Corporation  to  pay  its  expenses  and  to  pay  any  cash  dividend  or 
distribution  on Revlon,  Inc.’s Class  A Common Stock  that may be authorized  by  the  Board of 
Directors of Revlon, Inc.  The terms of the Credit Agreement, the 12% Notes, the 8 5/8% Notes, 
the  8  1/8%  Notes  and  the  9%  Notes  generally  restrict  Products  Corporation  from  paying 
dividends  or  making  distributions,  except  that  Products  Corporation  is  permitted  to  pay

11. Financial Instruments 

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is based on the quoted market prices for 
the  same  issues  or  on  the  current  rates  offered  to  the  Company  for  debt  of  the  same  remaining 
maturities.    The  estimated  fair  value  of  long-term  debt  at  December  31,  2001  and  2000  was 
approximately  $524.1  and  $393.6  less  than  the  carrying  values  of  $1,643.6  and  $1,563.1, 
respectively.   

Products Corporation also maintains standby and trade letters of credit with certain banks 
for  various  corporate  purposes  under  which  Products  Corporation  is  obligated,  of  which 
approximately $27.3 and $23.1 (including amounts available under credit agreements in effect at 
that  time)  were  maintained  at  December  31,  2001  and  2000,  respectively.    Included  in  these 
amounts  are  $10.1  and  $14.2,  respectively,  in  standby  letters  of  credit,  which  support  Products 
Corporation’s self-insurance programs.  The estimated liability under such programs is accrued by 
Products Corporation. 

The  carrying  amounts  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  marketable  securities,  trade 
receivables,  notes receivable, accounts payable  and short-term  borrowings approximate their  fair 
values.

12. Income Taxes  

In June  1992,  Holdings,  Revlon,  Inc. and  certain  of its subsidiaries, and  Mafco Holdings 
entered  into  a  tax  sharing  agreement  (as  subsequently  amended,  the  “Tax  Sharing  Agreement”), 
pursuant to which Mafco Holdings has agreed to indemnify Revlon, Inc. against federal, state or 
local income tax liabilities of the consolidated or combined group of which Mafco Holdings (or a 
subsidiary of Mafco Holdings other than Revlon, Inc. or its subsidiaries) is the common parent for 
taxable periods beginning on or after January 1, 1992 during which Revlon, Inc. or a subsidiary of 
Revlon,  Inc. is  a member of such group. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, for all taxable 
periods beginning on or after January 1, 1992, Revlon, Inc. will pay to Holdings, amounts equal to 
the taxes that Revlon, Inc. would otherwise have to pay if it were to file separate federal, state or 
local  income  tax  returns  (including  any  amounts  determined  to  be  due  as  a  result  of  a 
redetermination  arising  from  an  audit  or  otherwise  of  the  consolidated  or  combined  tax  liability 
relating to any such period which is attributable to Revlon, Inc.), except that Revlon, Inc. will not 
be  entitled  to  carry  back  any  losses  to  taxable  periods  ending  prior  to  January  1,  1992.    No 
payments are required by Revlon, Inc. if and to the extent Products Corporation is prohibited under 
the Credit Agreement from making tax sharing payments to Revlon, Inc.  The Credit Agreement 
prohibits  Products  Corporation  from  making  such  tax  sharing  payments  other  than  in  respect  of 
state and local income taxes.  Since the payments to be made under the Tax Sharing Agreement 
will be determined by the amount of taxes that Revlon, Inc. would otherwise have to pay if it were 
to file separate federal, state or local income tax returns, the Tax Sharing Agreement will benefit 
Mafco Holdings to the extent Mafco Holdings can offset the taxable income generated by Revlon, 
Inc. against losses and tax credits generated by Mafco Holdings and its other subsidiaries.  The Tax 
Sharing  Agreement  was  amended,  effective  as  of  January  1,  2001,  to  eliminate  a  contingent 
payment to Revlon, Inc. under certain circumstances in return for a $10 note with interest at 12% 
and interest and principal payable by Mafco Holdings  on December 31, 2005. As a  result of net 
operating  tax  losses  and  prohibitions  under  the  Credit  Agreement  there  were  no  federal  tax 
payments or payments in lieu of taxes pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement for 2001, 2000 or 
1999.  The Company has a liability of $0.9 to Holdings in respect of federal taxes for 1997 under 
the Tax Sharing Agreement.   

Pursuant  to  the  asset  transfer  agreement  referred  to  in  Note  15,  Products  Corporation 
assumed all tax liabilities of Holdings other than (i) certain income tax liabilities arising prior to 
January 1, 1992 to the extent such liabilities exceeded reserves on Holdings’ books as of January 1, 
1992 or were not of the nature reserved for and (ii) other tax liabilities to the extent such liabilities 
are related to the business and assets retained by Holdings.

In assessing the recoverability of its deferred tax assets,

management considers whether it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon
the generation of future taxable income during the periods in
which those temporary differences become deductible.
considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities,
projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in
making this assessment.
taxable income for certain international markets and projections
for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred
tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely
than not that the Company will realize the benefits of certain
deductible differences existing at December 31, 2001.

Based upon the level of historical

Management

The valuation allowance increased by $14.3 during 2001,
decreased by $6.3 during 2000 and increased by $60.8 during 1999.

During 2001, 2000 and 1999, certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries used operating 
loss  carryforwards  to  credit  the  current  provision  for  income  taxes  by  $3.6,  $1.9,  and  $8.8, 
respectively.    Certain  other  foreign  operations  generated  losses  during  2001,  2000  and  1999  for 
which the potential tax benefit was reduced by a valuation allowance.  At December 31, 2001, the 
Company  had  tax  loss  carryforwards  of  approximately  $1,039.9  that  expire  in  future  years  as 
follows:  2002-$31.3;  2003-$23.8;  2004-$29.6;  2005-$45.7;  2006  and  beyond-$749.7;  unlimited-
$159.8. The Company could receive the benefit of such tax loss carryforwards only to the extent it 
has  taxable  income  during  the  carryforward  periods  in  the  applicable  jurisdictions.    In  addition, 
based  upon  certain  factors,  including  the  amount  and  nature  of  gains  or  losses  recognized  by 
Mafco Holdings and its other subsidiaries included in the consolidated federal income tax return, 

F-71 

 
 
 
 
 
 
the  amount  of  net  operating  loss  carryforwards  attributable  to  Mafco  Holdings  and  such  other 
subsidiaries  and  the  amounts  of  alternative  minimum  tax  liability  of  Mafco  Holdings  and  such 
other  subsidiaries,  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  the  Tax  Sharing  Agreement,  all  or  a  portion  of  the 
domestic operating loss carryforwards may not be available to the Company should the Company 
cease being a member of the Mafco Holdings consolidated federal income tax return.  

F-72 

 
In  February  2002,  Products  Corporation  sold  its  Benelux  operations.    The  effect  of  this 

transaction reduced the amount of losses available for carryover by $21 (See Note 21). 

Appropriate United States and foreign income taxes have been accrued on foreign earnings 
that have been or are expected to be remitted in the near future.  Unremitted earnings of foreign 
subsidiaries which have been, or are currently intended to be, permanently reinvested in the future 
growth  of  the  business  aggregated  approximately  nil  at  December  31,  2001,  excluding  those 
amounts which, if remitted in the near future, would not result in significant additional taxes under 
tax statutes currently in effect.

Since March 5, 1996, Revlon, Inc. has had the Amended Stock Plan, which is a stock-based 
compensation  plan  and  is  described  below.    Revlon,  Inc.  applies  APB  Opinion  No.  25  and  its 
related interpretations in  accounting  for the Amended Stock Plan.  Under  APB  Opinion  No. 25, 
because the exercise price of Revlon, Inc.’s employee stock options under the Amended Stock Plan 
equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation cost has been 
recognized.  Had compensation cost for the Amended Stock Plan been determined consistent with 
SFAS  No.  123,  Revlon,  Inc.’s  net  loss  and  net  loss  per  diluted  share  of  $153.7  and  $2.94, 
respectively,  for  2001,  $129.7  and  $2.49,  respectively,  for  2000,  and  $370.9  and  $7.13, 
respectively, for 1999 would have been changed to the pro forma amounts of $163.3 and $3.13, 
respectively,  for  2001,  $140.7  and  $2.70,  respectively,  for  2000,  and  $396.6  and  $7.62, 
respectively,  for 1999.    The  fair  value  of  each option  grant is estimated  on  the  date of  the  grant 
using the Black-Scholes  option-pricing model assuming no dividend  yield, expected volatility of 
approximately 68% in 2001, 69% in 2000  and 68%  in 1999; weighted  average risk-free  interest

rate of 5.07% in 2001, 6.53% in 2000, and 5.48% in 1999; and a seven-year expected average life 
for  the  Amended  Stock  Plan’s  options  issued  in  2001,  2000  and  1999.    The  effects  of  applying 
SFAS No. 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not necessarily indicative of future amounts.   

Under  the  Amended  Stock  Plan,  awards  may  be  granted  to  employees  and  directors  of 
Revlon,  Inc.,  and  its  subsidiaries  for  up  to  an  aggregate  of  8.5  million  shares  of  Revlon,  Inc. 
Class A Common Stock.  Non-qualified options granted under the Amended Stock Plan have a 
term of 10 years during which the holder can purchase shares of Revlon, Inc. Class A Common 
Stock at an exercise price, which must be not less than the market price on the date of the grant.  
Option  grants  vest  over  service  periods  that  range  from  one  to  five  years,  except  as  disclosed 
below.  Options granted in February 1999 with an original four-year vesting term were modified 
in  May  1999  to  allow  the  options  to  become  fully  vested  on  the  first  anniversary  date  of  the 
grant.    Options  granted  in  May  2000  under  the  Amended  Stock  Plan  vest  25%  on  each 
anniversary of the grant date and will become 100% vested on the fourth anniversary of the grant 
date; provided that an additional 25% of such options would vest on each subsequent anniversary 
date  of  the  grant  if  the  Company  achieved  certain  performance  objectives  relating  to  the 
Company’s  operating  income  for  the  fiscal  year  preceding  such  anniversary  date,  which 
objectives  were  not  achieved  in  2000  or  2001.    During  each  of  2001,  2000  and  1999,  the 
Company granted to Mr. Perelman, Chairman of the Executive Committee, options to purchase 
225,000,  300,000  and  300,000,  respectively,  shares  of  Revlon,  Inc.  Class  A  Common  Stock, 
which grants will vest 25% on each anniversary date of the grant and will become 100% vested 
on the fourth anniversary date of the grant date as to the 2001 grant, will vest in full on the fifth 
anniversary of the grant date as to the 2000 grant and which vested 100% on the date of grant as 
to the 1999 grant.  At December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 there were 3,296,133, 3,009,908 and 
1,850,050 options exercisable under the Amended Stock Plan, respectively.

The Amended Stock Plan also provides that restricted stock may be awarded to employees and directors of 
Revlon, Inc. and its subsidiaries.  On June 18, 2001 (the “Grant Date”), the Compensation Committee awarded 120,000 
shares of restricted stock to Mr. Perelman as a director of the Company.  The 2001 restricted stock awards are subject 
to execution of a Restricted Stock Agreement by each grantee:  Provided the grantee remains continuously employed 
by the Company (or, in the case of Mr. Perelman, he continuously provides services as a director to the Company), the 
2001 restricted stock awards will vest as to one-third of the restricted shares on the day after which the 20-day average 
of the closing price of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) equals 
or exceeds $20.00, an additional one-third of such restricted shares will vest on the day after which the 20-day average 
of the closing price of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock on the NYSE equals or exceeds $25.00 and the balance 
will vest on the day after which the 20-day average of the closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on 
the  NYSE equals or exceeds  $30.00, provided that (i)  subject to clause (ii) below, no portion of the restricted stock 
awards will vest until the second anniversary following the Grant Date, (ii) all of the shares of restricted stock will vest 
immediately in the event of a "change of control" of Revlon, Inc., and (iii) all of the shares of restricted stock which 
have not previously vested  will fully vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date.  No dividends will be paid on 
unvested  restricted  stock.    At  December  31,  2001,  there  were  670,000  shares  of  restricted  stock  outstanding,  and 
unvested, under the Amended Stock Plan. 

15. Related Party Transactions 

Transfer Agreements 

In  June  1992,  Revlon,  Inc.  and  Products  Corporation  entered  into  an  asset  transfer 
agreement  with  Holdings  and  certain  of  its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  (the  "Asset  Transfer 
Agreement"), and Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation entered into a real property asset transfer 
agreement  with  Holdings  (the  "Real  Property  Transfer  Agreement"  and,  together  with  the  Asset 
Transfer  Agreement,  the  "Transfer  Agreements"),  and  pursuant  to  such  agreements,  on  June  24, 
1992  Holdings  transferred  assets  to  Products  Corporation  and  Products  Corporation  assumed  all 
the  liabilities  of  Holdings,  other  than  certain  specifically  excluded  assets  and  liabilities  (the 
liabilities excluded are referred to as the "Excluded Liabilities"). Certain consumer products lines 
sold  in  demonstrator  assisted  distribution  channels  considered  not  integral  to  Revlon,  Inc.’s 
business and which historically had not been profitable (the "Retained Brands") and certain other 
assets  and liabilities were retained by Holdings.  Holdings  agreed to indemnify Revlon, Inc. and 
Products  Corporation  against  losses  arising  from  the  Excluded  Liabilities,  and  Revlon,  Inc.  and 
Products  Corporation  agreed  to  indemnify  Holdings  against  losses  arising  from  the  liabilities 

F-78 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
assumed by Products Corporation.  The amounts reimbursed by Holdings to Products Corporation 
for the Excluded Liabilities for 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $0.2, $0.4 and $0.5, respectively.  

Certain  assets  and  liabilities  relating  to  divested  businesses  were  transferred  to  Products 
Corporation on the transfer date and any remaining balances as of December 31 of the applicable 
year  have  been  reflected  in  the  Company’s  Consolidated  Balance  Sheets  as  of  such  dates.    At 
December  31,  2001  and  2000,  the  amounts  reflected  in  the  Company’s  Consolidated  Balance 
Sheets  aggregated  a  net  liability  of  $21.4  and  $23.2,  respectively,  of  which  $3.0  and  $4.8, 
respectively, are included in accrued expenses and other and $18.4 is included in other long-term 
liabilities as of both dates. 

Reimbursement Agreements 

Revlon,  Inc.,  Products  Corporation  and  MacAndrews  Holdings  have  entered  into 
reimbursement agreements (the "Reimbursement Agreements") pursuant to which (i) MacAndrews 
Holdings  is  obligated  to  provide  (directly  or  through  affiliates)  certain  professional  and 
administrative  services,  including  employees,  to  Revlon,  Inc.  and  its  subsidiaries,  including 
Products Corporation, and purchase services from third party providers, such as insurance,  legal 
and  accounting  services  and  air  transportation  services,  on  behalf  of  Revlon,  Inc.  and  its 
subsidiaries, including Products Corporation, to the extent requested by Products Corporation, and 
(ii) Products Corporation is obligated to provide certain professional and administrative services, 
including employees, to MacAndrews Holdings (and its affiliates) and purchase services from third 
party  providers,  such  as  insurance  and  legal  and  accounting  services,  on  behalf  of  MacAndrews 
Holdings  (and  its  affiliates)  to  the  extent  requested  by  MacAndrews  Holdings,  provided  that  in 
each case the performance of such services does not cause an unreasonable burden to MacAndrews 
Holdings  or  Products  Corporation,  as  the  case  may  be.  Products  Corporation  reimburses 
MacAndrews Holdings for the allocable costs of the services purchased for or provided to Products 
Corporation and its subsidiaries and for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection 
with  the  provision  of  such  services.    MacAndrews  Holdings  (or  such  affiliates)  reimburses 
Products  Corporation  for  the  allocable  costs  of  the  services  purchased  for  or  provided  to 
MacAndrews Holdings (or such affiliates) and for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred 
in  connection  with  the  purchase  or  provision  of  such  services.    The  net  amounts  reimbursed  by 
MacAndrews  Holdings 
the 
Reimbursement  Agreements  for  2001,  2000  and  1999,  were  $1.6,  $0.9  and  $0.5,  respectively.  
Each of Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation, on the one hand, and MacAndrews Holdings, on 
the other, has agreed to indemnify the other party for losses arising out of the provision of services 
by it under the Reimbursement Agreements other than losses resulting from its willful misconduct 
or  gross  negligence.    The  Reimbursement  Agreements  may  be  terminated  by  either  party  on  90 
days' notice.  Products Corporation does not intend to request services under the Reimbursement 
Agreements unless their costs would be at least as favorable to Products Corporation as could be 
obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

Tax Sharing Agreement 

Holdings,  Revlon,  Inc.,  Products  Corporation  and  certain  of  its  subsidiaries  and  Mafco 
Holdings  are  parties  to  the  Tax  Sharing  Agreement,  which  is  described  in  Note  12.    Since 
payments to be made under the Tax Sharing Agreement will be determined by the amount of taxes 
that  Revlon,  Inc.  would  otherwise  have  to  pay  if  it  were  to  file  separate  federal,  state  or  local 

F-79 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
income tax returns, the Tax Sharing Agreement will benefit Mafco Holdings to the extent Mafco 
Holdings  can  offset  the  taxable  income  generated  by  Revlon,  Inc.  against  losses  and  tax  credits 
generated by Mafco Holdings and its other subsidiaries.  There were no cash payments in respect 
of federal taxes made by Revlon, Inc. pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement for 2001, 2000 and 
1999. 

Registration Rights Agreement 

Prior to the consummation of Revlon, Inc.’s initial public equity offering, Revlon, Inc. and 
Revlon Worldwide Corporation (subsequently merged into REV Holdings), the then direct parent 
of Revlon, Inc., entered into the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which REV Holdings 
and  certain  transferees  of  Revlon,  Inc.'s  Common  Stock  held  by  REV  Holdings  (the  "Holders") 
have the right to require  Revlon,  Inc. to  register  all or part of the Company’s Class A Common 
Stock  owned  by  such  Holders  and  the  Company’s  Class  A  Common  Stock  issuable  upon 
conversion of the Company’s Class B Common Stock owned by such Holders under the Securities 
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") (a "Demand Registration"); provided that Revlon, 
Inc. may postpone giving effect to a Demand Registration up to a period of 30 days if Revlon, Inc. 
believes such registration might have a material adverse effect on any plan or proposal by Revlon, 
Inc.  with  respect  to  any  financing,  acquisition,  recapitalization,  reorganization  or  other  material 
transaction, or if Revlon, Inc. is in possession of material non-public information that, if publicly 
disclosed,  could  result  in  a  material  disruption  of  a  major  corporate  development  or  transaction 
then pending or in progress or in other material adverse consequences to Revlon, Inc. In addition, 
the Holders have the right to participate in registrations by Revlon,  Inc. of its Class  A Common

Pursuant to a lease dated April 2, 1993 (the "Edison
Lease"), Holdings leased to Products Corporation the Edison
research and development facility for a term of up to 10 years
with an annual rent of $1.4 and certain shared operating expenses
payable by Products Corporation, which, together with the annual
rent, were not to exceed $2.0 per year.
In August 1998, Holdings
sold the Edison facility to an unrelated third party, which
assumed substantially all liability for environmental claims and
compliance

Effective September 2001, Revlon, Inc. acquired from Holdings all the assets and liabilities 
of the Charles of the Ritz business (which Revlon, Inc. contributed to Products Corporation in the 
form of a capital contribution), in consideration for 400,000 newly issued shares of Revlon, Inc.’s 
Class  A  Common  Stock  and  4,333  shares  of  newly  issued  voting  (with  433,333  votes  in  the 
aggregate) Series B Preferred Stock which are convertible into 433,333 shares in the aggregate of 
Revlon,  Inc.’s  Class  A  Common  Stock,  which  conversion  rights  are  subject  to  approval  by  the 
stockholders of Revlon, Inc. at  the 2002 Annual Meeting.  As Holdings and Products Corporation 
are under  common  control, the  transaction  has  been accounted for  at historical cost  in  a manner 
similar  to  that  of  a  pooling  of  interests  and,  accordingly,  all  prior  period  financial  statements 
presented have been restated as if the acquisition took place at the beginning of such periods.  An 
investment  banking  firm  rendered  its  written  opinion  that  the  terms  of  the  transaction  were  fair 
from  a  financial  standpoint  to  Revlon,  Inc.    The  effect  of  the  acquisition  was  to  increase  both 
operating income and net income by  $2.3, $0.9 and $0.6 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  
The net equity (deficit) of the Charles of the Ritz business of $0.7 and $(0.6) is included in total 
stockholder’s deficiency at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. 

During 2001, Products Corporation leased certain facilities to MacAndrews & Forbes or its 
affiliates  pursuant  to  occupancy  agreements  and  leases.    These  included  space  at  Products 
Corporation's  New  York  headquarters  and  through  January  31,  2001  at  Products  Corporation's 
offices in London.  The rent paid to Products Corporation for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $0.5, $0.9 
and $1.1, respectively.

During  2000  and  1999,  Products  Corporation  made  advances  of  $0.1  and  $0.4, 
respectively,  to  Mr.  Jeffrey  Nugent,  former  President  and  CEO,  pursuant  to  his  employment 
agreement for relocation expenses, which advances bear interest at the applicable federal rate. 

During  2000,  Products  Corporation  made  an  advance  of  $0.8  to  Mr.  Douglas  Greeff,  Executive  Vice

which $0.2 was repaid during 2001. 

Mr. Nugent’s spouse provided consulting services in 2000 and

The law firm, of which Mr. Edward Landau (a director) is Of
Counsel, Wolf, Block, Schorr and Solis-Cohen LLP, provided legal
services to the Company during 2001 and 2000, but did not provide
any such services in 1999 and it is anticipated that such firm
will continue to provide such services in 2002.

An investment bank of which Mr. Vernon Jordan became a
Managing Director in January 2000, Lazard Freres & Co. LLC,
provided investment banking services to Revlon, Inc. and its
subsidiaries during 2001.

During 2001, 2000 and 1999 Products Corporation placed
advertisements in magazines and other media operated by Martha
Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. (“MSLO”), which is controlled
by Ms. Stewart, who also serves as its Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. The Company paid MSLO $2.1, $1.5 and $1.8
for such services in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, which
fees were less than 1% of our estimate of MSLO’s consolidated
gross revenues for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
The
Company’s decision to place advertisements for its products in
MSLO’s magazines and other media was based upon their popular
appeal to women and the rates paid were competitive with
industry rates for similarly situated magazines and media.

During  2001,  2000  and  1999,  Products  Corporation  obtained  public  relations  and 
advertising  services  from  various  subsidiaries  of  WPP  Group  plc  (“WPP”).    Ms.  Robinson  is 
employed by one of WPP’s subsidiaries, however, Ms. Robinson is neither an executive officer 
of, nor does she hold any material equity interest in, WPP. The Company paid WPP $2.0, $3.2 
and $0.3 for such services in 2001, 2000 and 1999, which fees were less than 1% of our estimate 
of WPP’s consolidated gross revenues for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The Company’s

advertising and public relations needs of the consumer packaged goods industry, as well as their 
global  presence  in  many  of  the  international  markets  in  which  the  Company  operates,  and  the

16. Commitments and Contingencies 

The  Company  currently 

leases  manufacturing,  executive,  including  research  and 
development, and sales facilities and various types of equipment under operating lease agreements.  
Rental  expense  was  $29.0,  $33.0  and  $42.8  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2001,  2000  and 
1999, respectively.  Minimum rental commitments under all noncancelable leases, including those 
pertaining to idled facilities, with remaining lease terms in excess of one year from December 31, 
2001 aggregated $67.1; such commitments for each of the five years subsequent to December 31, 
2001  are  $26.1,  $14.1,  $5.2,  $3.7  and  $4.4,  respectively.    Such  amounts  exclude  the  minimum 
rentals to be received by the Company in the future under noncancelable subleases of $10.7. 

The Company has minimum purchase commitments with suppliers
of finished goods, raw materials and components.
The minimum
purchase commitments under these agreements aggregated $194.5;
such commitments for each of the five years subsequent to
December 31, 2001 are $52.8 $26.6, $21.6, $21.3 and $21.3,
respectively.  

The  Company  and  its  subsidiaries  are  defendants  in  litigation  and  proceedings  involving 
various matters.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, based upon advice of its counsel 
handling  such  litigation  and  proceedings,  adverse  outcomes,  if  any,  will  not  result  in  a  material 
effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations. 

On April 17, 2000, the plaintiffs in the six purported
class actions filed in October and November 1999 by each of
Thomas Comport, Boaz Spitz, Felix Ezeir and Amy Hoffman, Ted
Parris, Jerry Krim and Dan Gavish individually and allegedly
on behalf of others similarly situated to them against
Revlon, Inc., certain of its present and former officers and
directors and the parent of Revlon, Inc., REV Holdings,
alleging among other things, violations of Rule 10b-5 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, filed an amended
complaint, which consolidated all of the actions under the
caption “In Re Revlon, Inc. Securities Litigation” and
limited the alleged class to security purchasers during the
In
period from October 29, 1997 through October 1, 1998.
June 2000, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended
complaint, which motion was denied in substantial part in
March 2001.
The Company believes the allegations contained
in the amended complaint are without merit and is vigorously
defending against them.

A purported class action lawsuit was filed on September
27, 2000, in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York on behalf of Dan Gavish,
Tricia Fontan and Walter Fontan individually and allegedly
on behalf of all others similarly situated who purchased the
securities of Revlon, Inc. and REV Holdings between October
2, 1998 and September 30, 1999 (the "Second Gavish Action").
In November 2001, plaintiffs amended their complaint.

operations. 

18. Geographic, Financial and Other Information 

The Company manages its business on the basis of one reportable operating segment.  See 
Note 1 for a brief description of the Company’s business.  As of December 31, 2001, the Company 
had  operations  established  in  20  countries  outside  of  the  United  States  and  its  products  are  sold 

F-86 

 
 
 
 
 
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
         
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
throughout  the  world.    The  Company  is  exposed  to  the  risk  of  changes  in  social,  political  and 
economic  conditions inherent in foreign operations and the Company’s  results of operations  and 
the value of its foreign assets are affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.  The 
Company’s  operations  in  Brazil  have  accounted  for  approximately  3.2%,  5.1%  and  4.3%  of  the 
Company’s net sales for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  While the Company’s operations in 
Brazil have historically been significant, as a result of the sale of the Company’s Colorama brand 
in Brazil in July 2001, the Company’s ongoing operations in Brazil are no longer significant to the 
Company’s  consolidated  ongoing  operations.    (See  Note  3).    Net  sales  by  geographic  area  are 
presented by attributing revenues from external customers on the basis of where the products are 
sold.    During  2001,  2000  and  1999,  Wal-Mart  and  its  affiliates  worldwide  accounted  for 
approximately  19.9%,  16.5%  and  13.1%,  respectively,  of  the  Company’s  consolidated  net  sales, 
before the EITF Issue 01-9 adjustment. (See Note 1). As a result of the Company’s dispositions of 
certain  non-core  assets,  including  certain  international  businesses,  the  Company  expects  that  for 
future periods a small number of other customers will, in the aggregate, account for a large portion 
of the Company’s net sales. The Company’s loss of Wal-Mart or one or more other customers that 
may account for a significant portion of the Company’s sales, or any significant decrease in sales 
to  any  of  these  customers,  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s  business, 
financial condition or results of operations.  The Company has no reason to believe that any such 
loss  of  customer  or  decrease  in  sales  will  occur.  In  January  2002,  Kmart  Corporation  filed  a 
bankruptcy petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Less than 
5% of the Company’s 2001 net sales were made to Kmart. The Company plans to continue doing 
business  with  Kmart  for  the  foreseeable  future  and  accordingly,  based  upon  the  information 
currently available, believes that Kmart’s bankruptcy proceedings will not have a material adverse 
effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations. 

During  the  first  quarter  of  2001,  to  reflect  the  integration  of  management  reporting 
responsibilities, the Company reclassified Canada’s results from its international operations to its 
United  States  operations.    The  geographic  information  reflects  this  change  for  all  periods 
presented.
