SPEED AND 

INNOVATION

We pride ourselves on 

knowing athletes better 

than anyone else out there, 

which is why we have the 

vision required to imagine, 

innovate, and invent things 

athletes never even knew 

they needed. The innovation 

on this page, however, isn’t 

available just yet. But it’s 

being worked on at Under 

Armour right now.

When  we  innovate,  we  win.  This  simple 
statement  epitomized  our  approach  in  2012 
and  will  only  be  amplified  as  we  set  the  bar 
higher in 2013 and beyond. It is the philosophy 
and attitude that put points on the scoreboard 
for 2012, with 25% net revenues growth, 31% 
earnings per share growth, and significant im-
provement to our inventory positioning, which 
drove a nearly doubling of our cash position to 
$342 million. It has helped deliver eleven con-
secutive quarters of 20%+ net revenue growth 
for the Under Armour Brand. It has enabled us 
to  add  nearly  $1 
billion in net rev-
enues  over  the 
past  three  years, 
putting the Com-
pany in position to reach our goal established at 
our June 2011 Investor Day: 2X our net revenues 
from 2010 to 2013.

Innovation  has  helped  successfully  transi-
tion our Brand from a “tight t-shirt company” 
to a fully integrated athletic brand capable of 
servicing the full needs of athletes. As a state-
ment to this progression, compression apparel 
represented  63%  of  our  apparel  mix  during 
our IPO year of 2005. Today, it is down to just 
14%. 

Innovation can drive platforms for the Brand, 
including Charged Cotton and UA Storm, which 
both  posted  substantial  growth  in  2012  follow-
ing their 2011 introductions. It can also produce 
technologies like coldblack, a fabrication that re-
flects the sun’s heat and light, keeping you cooler 
and more comfortable on a hot summer day. 

Innovation for us also means making our 
core UA TeCh t-shirts better than ever before 

in  2012,  adding  a  softer  touch  and  anti-odor 
attributes.  It’s  the  notion  of  “newness”  that 
our  customer  demands  and  will  be  a  height-
ened  focus  as  we  flow  more  product  to  the 
market while reducing our reliance on legacy 
programs. It’s broadening our appeal to more 
consumers while also reducing our dependen-
cy on weather extremes by focusing on areas 
like  Fleece,  which  grew  nearly  50%  in  2012. 
And  it’s  understanding  that  the  needs  of  our 
athletes are changing, and that versatility is a 
winning proposition. 

Another  specific  area  where  innovation 
is  driving  results  is  in  Women’s,  where  key 
investments  made  over  the  past  few  years  in 
areas such as fit and design are helping intro-
duce Under Armour to a whole new consumer. 
We  debuted  platforms  like  Armour  Bra  and 
UA Studio, which are redefining her expecta-
tions for the Brand. These product messages 
were amplified by our first targeted Women’s 
campaign,  What’s  Beautiful,  which  provided 
a  unique  community  to  challenge  and  shat-
ter expectations on what she can accomplish. 
While  we  are  pleased  with  the  nearly  $400 
million  Women’s  business  we  have  built  to 
date,  we  are  positioned  to  amplify  her  voice 
in 2013. We recently added our new executive 
Creative Director for Women’s, and we are fo-
cused on assortment, fit, color, and the right 
distribution. 

Much  like  Women’s,  the  potential  of  our 
Brand is seemingly limitless with kids. Youth 
product grew at a faster rate than both Men’s 
and  Women’s  in  2012  and  should  again  lead 
the way in 2013 as we focus on product expan-
sions in areas like graphic t-shirts and fill distri-

bution gaps in locations like department stores. 
The notion of “NeXT” is a guiding principle 
in our Youth business–
the  UA  consumers  of 
tomorrow–as  well  as 
how  we  are  communi-
cating with these future 
athletes. We remain fo-
cused on capturing the 
“NeXT”  generation  of 
professional 
athletes, 
including  2012  Nation-
al  League  MVP  and 
World Series Champion 
Buster  Posey,  2012  Na-
tional League Rookie of 
the  Year  Bryce  harper, 
ten-
up-and-coming 
nis  phenom  Sloane 
Stephens,  WBC  super-
welterweight  champion  Canelo  Alvarez  and 
former  world  #1  amateur  golfer,  19-year-old 
Jordan Spieth.

“…ThE pOTENTIal Of OUR 
BRaND IS SEEmINglY 
lImITlESS WITh kIDS.”

Part of the promise of the Brand and our 
ability  to  be  next  with  the  upcoming  genera-
tion of athletes will be driven by our efforts in 
Footwear. Still just in our seventh year, the cat-
egory grew 32 percent to reach nearly a quar-
ter of a billion dollars. however, to date, this 
success has really only manifested into mean-
ingful market share in one category: cleats. We 
are  building  on-field  credibility  with  our  ath-
letes  through  truly  game-changing  products 
such as our $130 UA highlight football cleat. 
This  type  of  pinnacle  product  helped  UA  ap-
proach nearly 30 percent market share in both 
baseball and football in 2012, and we will con-

tinue to build upon that momentum in 2013.

Some of that momentum will be evident in 
Running footwear, where we built upon some 
of the early success of our $120 UA Charge RC 
product  and  Micro  G  cushioning  technology 
to  unveil  UA  Spine  last  July.  UA  Spine  is  our 
unique stance on melding lightweight and sta-
bility, and the platform will move well beyond 
running in 2013.

Great  product  requires  great  distribution, 
and we continue to work with our partners like 
Dick’s Sporting Goods, The Sports Authority, 
and  Academy  to  elevate  our  Brand.  Ongoing 
investments  such  as  our  All-American  and 
Blue Chip shop-in-shops with Dick’s Sporting 
Goods are providing a more comprehensive as-
sortment to our consumers. At the same time, 
we continue to look for new ways to reach con-
sumers,  especially  in  channels  that  are  more 
relevant  to  certain  product  categories  like 
Women’s and Youth. To that end, we entered 
more  than  500  new  department  store  doors 
in 2012, including Macy’s, Dillards, Belk and 
Lord & Taylor, and are positioned to broaden 
this reach going forward.

Our  conversation  around  distribution 
would  not  be  complete  without  our  Direct-to-
Consumer  channel.  Direct-to-Consumer  net 
revenues grew 34 percent in 2012 to over a half 
of a billion dollars, or nearly the size of our en-
tire business in 2007. The channel represented 
29 percent of total net revenues for the year, up 
from 27 percent in 2011 and 23 percent in 2010. 
The bulk of this business is driven by our Fac-
tory house outlet stores, which continue to help 
us  better  manage  our  excess  inventory  while 
reaching  out  and  providing  value  to  our  con-

sumers. We expanded this store base in the U.S. 
from 80 stores in 2011 to 101 in 2012. 

Beyond  outlets,  we  opened  the  next  gen-
eration of UA Specialty with our harbor east 
store  in  downtown  Baltimore  in  February 
2013.  Delivering  an  unrivaled  store  experi-
ence through specialization, localization, and 
innovation,  the  store  provides  an  important 
learning  lab  that  we  will  continue  to  refine 
and test with additional stores in the future in 
strategic locations. 

Rounding out Direct-to-Consumer, ecom-
merce will continue to be a growth vehicle for 
the company as we drive enhanced merchan-
dising  and  storytelling,  including  a  clearer 
connection with some of our larger branding 
initiatives planned in 2013. 

While all these initiatives continue to drive 
our business at home, we are mindful that the 
opportunities abroad are bigger. Our interna-
tional business represented only 6% of net rev-
enues in 2012, and we continue to believe that 
the strength in our core U.S. business affords 
us the opportunity and patience to make the 
right decisions in europe, Latin America, and 
Asia. We are able to take a different, broader 
approach to how we enter these markets. Our 
grassroots efforts help us build the Brand by 
being  intensely  focused  on  sport  authenticity 
in local markets. We are able to balance this 
approach  with  larger  brand-building  initia-
tives  such  as  the  July  2012  introduction  of 
our kit for Tottenham hotspur of the english 
Premier League, reaching over 20 million fans 
globally.  Finally,  in  the  age  where  we  are  all 
connected  like  never  before  through  technol-
ogy,  we  have  the  ability  to  change  the  tradi-

tional approach to reaching consumers in new 
markets through digital means like ecommerce 
and social media.

With all of our focus on building great prod-

uct  for  athletes,  no 
element of our busi-
ness  is  more  criti-
cal  to  our  success 
than  the  continued 
development  of  our 
team.  As  we  build 
the  organizational 
structure in Balti-
more and around 
the world, we will 
consistently 
sup-
plement this great 
leadership to help ensure our progress as a lead-
ing  global  athletic  brand.  In  2012,  we  added 
new  leadership  within  International,  Supply 
Chain, Women’s, and human Resources. Our 
success  in  2012  is  a  direct  result  of  the  team 
we have and continue to build in Baltimore and 
around the world.

OFFICIAL TECHNICAL PARTNER OF 
TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FOOTBALL CLUB

In 2012, we took our most signifi cant step into the world’s most popular 
sport by signing a partnership to outfi t the Tottenham Hotspur Football 
Club of the Barclays Premier League. The entire global audience 
saw the introduction of the Spurs’ full collection of Under Armour® 
performance training gear and kits, resulting in Tottenham Hotspur’s 
most successful kit launch to date.

THE RELENTLESS PURSUIT OF INNOVATION

We continue to be the thought leaders in innovation with new products 
like the Armour39™, the fi rst-of-its-kind performance monitoring system 
for athletes that measures what matters most: WILLpower™. 

HOW STRONG IS YOUR WILLPOWER™?
THE ARMOUR 39™ WILL TELL YOU.

WILLpower™ is the score that tells you exactly how hard you’ve worked 
during a training session. The Armour39™ system also tracks vitals like 
calories burned, heart rate, and real-time intensity. Now you won’t just 
see yourself getting better—you’ll be keeping score.

BUSINESS

General

PART I

Our principal business activities are the development, marketing and distribution of branded performance

apparel, footwear and accessories for men, women and youth. The brand’s moisture-wicking fabrications are
engineered in many designs and styles for wear in nearly every climate to provide a performance alternative to
traditional products. Our products are sold worldwide and are worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to
professional, on playing fields around the globe, as well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

Our net revenues are generated primarily from the wholesale distribution of our products to national,
regional, independent and specialty retailers. We also generate net revenue from product licensing and from the
sale of our products through our direct to consumer sales channel, which includes sales through our factory house
and specialty stores and websites. A large majority of our products are sold in North America; however we
believe that our products appeal to athletes and consumers with active lifestyles around the globe. Internationally,
we sell our products in China and certain countries in Europe. A third party licensee sells our products in Japan
and distributors sell our products in other foreign countries. We plan to continue to grow our business over the
long term through increased sales of our apparel, footwear and accessories, expansion of our wholesale
distribution, growth in our direct to consumer sales channel and expansion in international markets. Virtually all
of our products are manufactured by unaffiliated manufacturers operating in 14 countries outside of the United
States.

We were incorporated as a Maryland corporation in 1996. As used in this report, the terms “we,” “our,”
“us,” “Under Armour” and the “Company” refer to Under Armour, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context
indicates otherwise. We have registered trademarks around the globe, including UNDER ARMOUR®,
HEATGEAR®, COLDGEAR®, ALLSEASONGEAR® and the Under Armour UA Logo, and we have applied to
register many other trademarks. This Annual Report on Form 10-K also contains additional trademarks and
tradenames of our Company. All trademarks and tradenames appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are
the property of their respective holders.

Products

Our product offerings consist of apparel, footwear and accessories for men, women and youth. We market

our products at multiple price levels and provide consumers with products that we believe are a superior
alternative to traditional athletic products. In 2012, sales of apparel, footwear and accessories represented 76%,
13% and 9% of net revenues, respectively. Licensing arrangements for the sale of our products represented the
remaining 2% of net revenues. Refer to Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for net revenues by
product.

Apparel

Our apparel is offered in a variety of styles and fits intended to enhance comfort and mobility, regulate body

temperature and improve performance regardless of weather conditions. Our apparel is engineered to replace
traditional non-performance fabrics in the world of athletics and fitness with performance alternatives designed
and merchandised along gearlines. Our three gearlines are marketed to tell a very simple story about our highly
technical products and extend across the sporting goods, outdoor and active lifestyle markets. We market our
apparel for consumers to choose HEATGEAR® when it is hot, COLDGEAR® when it is cold and
ALLSEASONGEAR® between the extremes. Within each gearline our apparel comes in three primary fit types:
compression (tight fit), fitted (athletic fit) and loose (relaxed).

HEATGEAR® is designed to be worn in warm to hot temperatures under equipment or as a single layer. Our

first compression T-shirt was the original HEATGEAR® product and remains one of our signature styles. While

1

a sweat-soaked traditional non-performance T-shirt can weigh two to three pounds, HEATGEAR® is engineered
with a microfiber blend designed to wick moisture from the body which helps the body stay cool, dry and light.
We offer HEATGEAR® in a variety of tops and bottoms in a broad array of colors and styles for wear in the gym
or outside in warm weather.

Because athletes sweat in cold weather as well as in the heat, COLDGEAR® is designed to wick moisture

from the body while circulating body heat from hot spots to help maintain core body temperature. Our
COLDGEAR® apparel provides both dryness and warmth in a single light layer that can be worn beneath a
jersey, uniform, protective gear or ski-vest, and our COLDGEAR® outerwear products protect the athlete, as well
as the coach and the fan from the outside in. Our COLDGEAR® products generally sell at higher prices than our
other gearlines.

ALLSEASONGEAR® is designed to be worn in between extreme temperatures and uses technical fabrics to

keep the wearer cool and dry in warmer temperatures while preventing a chill in cooler temperatures.

Footwear

We began offering footwear for men, women and youth in 2006, and each year we have expanded our
footwear offerings. Our footwear offerings include football, baseball, lacrosse, softball and soccer cleats, slides,
performance training footwear, running footwear, basketball footwear and hunting boots. Our footwear is light,
breathable and built with performance attributes for athletes. Our footwear is designed with innovative
technologies which provide stabilization, directional cushioning and moisture management engineered to
maximize the athlete’s comfort and control.

Accessories

Accessories includes the sale of headwear, bags and gloves. Our accessories include HEATGEAR® and

COLDGEAR® technologies and are designed with advanced fabrications to provide the same level of
performance as our other products.

We also have agreements with our licensees to develop Under Armour accessories. Our product, marketing
and sales teams are actively involved in all steps of the design process in order to maintain brand standards and
consistency. During 2012, our licensees offered socks, team uniforms, baby and kids’ apparel, eyewear and
inflatable footballs and basketballs that feature performance advantages and functionality similar to our other
product offerings. License revenues generated from the sale of these accessories are included in our net revenues.

Marketing and Promotion

We currently focus on marketing and selling our products to consumers primarily for use in athletics,

fitness, training and outdoor activities. We seek to drive consumer demand by building brand equity and
awareness that our products deliver advantages that help athletes perform better.

Sports Marketing

Our marketing and promotion strategy begins with providing and selling our products to high-performing

athletes and teams on the high school, collegiate and professional levels. We execute this strategy through
outfitting agreements, professional and collegiate sponsorships, individual athlete agreements and by providing
and selling our products directly to team equipment managers and to individual athletes. As a result, our products
are seen on the field, giving them exposure to various consumer audiences through the internet, television,
magazines and live at sporting events. This exposure to consumers helps us establish on-field authenticity as
consumers can see our products being worn by high-performing athletes.

2

We are the official outfitter of athletic teams in several high-profile collegiate conferences, and since 2006

we have been an official supplier of footwear to the National Football League (“NFL”). In 2010, we signed an
agreement to become an official supplier of gloves to the NFL beginning in 2011 and we are the official combine
scouting partner to the NFL with the right to sell combine training apparel beginning in 2012. In addition, in
2011 we became the Official Performance Footwear Supplier of Major League Baseball, as well as becoming a
partner with the National Basketball Association (“NBA”) which allows us to market our NBA athletes in game
uniforms in connection with our basketball footwear starting with the 2011/2012 season.

Internationally, we are providing and selling our products to European soccer and rugby teams. Beginning

with the 2012 season, we provide the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club with performance apparel, including
training wear and playing kit for the Club’s First and Academy teams, together with replica product for the
Club’s supporters around the world. We’re the official technical kit supplier to the Welsh Rugby Union and have
exclusive retail rights on the replica products.

We also seek to sponsor events to drive awareness and brand authenticity from a grassroots level. We host

combines, camps and clinics for many sports at regional sites across the country for male and female athletes.
These events, along with the products we make, are designed to help young athletes improve their training
methods and their overall performance. We are also the title sponsor of a collection of high school All-America
Games that create significant on-field product and brand exposure that contributes to our on-field authenticity.

Media

We feature our products in a variety of national digital, broadcast, out-of-home and print media outlets. We
also utilize social marketing to engage consumers and promote conversation around our brand and our products.

Retail Presentation

The primary component of our retail marketing strategy is to increase and brand floor space dedicated to our

products within our major retail accounts. The design and funding of Under Armour concept shops within our
major retail accounts has been a key initiative for securing prime floor space, educating the consumer and
creating an exciting environment for the consumer to experience our brand. Under Armour concept shops
enhance our brand’s presentation within our major retail accounts with a shop-in-shop approach, using dedicated
floor space exclusively for our products, including flooring, lighting, walls, displays and images.

Sales and Distribution

The majority of our sales are generated through wholesale channels which include national and regional

sporting goods chains, independent and specialty retailers, department store chains, institutional athletic
departments and leagues and teams. In addition, we sell our products to independent distributors in various
countries where we generally do not have direct sales operations and through licensees.

We also sell our products directly to consumers through our own network of specialty and factory house

stores in our North American Operating Segment, and through our website operations in the United States,
Canada and certain countries in Europe. These factory house stores serve an important role in our overall
inventory management by allowing us to sell a significant portion of excess, discontinued and out-of-season
products while maintaining the pricing integrity of our brand in our other distribution channels. Through our
specialty stores, consumers experience our brand first-hand and have broader access to our performance
products. In 2012, sales through our wholesale, direct to consumer and licensing channels represented 69%, 29%
and 2% of net revenues, respectively.

We operate in four geographic segments: (1) North America, (2) Europe, the Middle East and Africa
(“EMEA”), (3) Asia, and (4) Latin America. Each geographic segment operates predominantly in one industry:
the design, development, marketing and distribution of performance apparel, footwear and accessories. While our

3

international operating segments are currently not material and we combine them into other foreign countries for
reporting purposes, we believe that the trend toward performance products is global. We plan to continue to
introduce our products and simple merchandising story to athletes throughout the world. We are introducing our
performance apparel, footwear and accessories in a manner consistent with our past brand-building strategy,
including selling our products directly to teams and individual athletes in these markets, thereby providing us
with product exposure to broad audiences of potential consumers. The following table presents net revenues by
geographic distribution for each of the years ending December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010:

North America

North America accounted for 94% of our net revenues for 2012. We sell our branded apparel, footwear and
accessories in North America through our wholesale and our own direct to consumer channels. In 2012, our two
largest customers were, in alphabetical order, Dick’s Sporting Goods and The Sports Authority. These two
customers accounted for a total of 22% of our total net revenues in 2012, and one of these customers individually
accounted for at least 10% of our net revenues in 2012.

Our direct to consumer sales are generated primarily through our specialty and factory house stores and
websites. As of December 31, 2012, we had 102 factory house stores in North America, of which the majority is
located at outlet centers on the East Coast of the United States. In 2012, we opened our first factory house store
in Canada. As of December 31, 2012, we had 5 specialty stores in North America, located near Annapolis,
Maryland, Chicago, Illinois, Boston, Massachusetts, Washington, D.C., and Vail, Colorado. Consumers can
purchase our products directly from our e-commerce website, www.underarmour.com.

In addition, we earn licensing income in North America based on our licensees’ sale of socks, team
uniforms, baby and kids’ apparel, eyewear and inflatable footballs and basketballs, as well as the distribution of
our products to college bookstores and golf pro shops. In order to maintain consistent quality and performance,
we pre-approve all products manufactured and sold by our licensees, and our quality assurance team strives to
ensure that the products meet the same quality and compliance standards as the products that we sell directly.

We distribute the majority of our products sold to our North American wholesale customers and our own

retail stores from distribution centers of approximately 703.6 thousand square feet that we lease and operate
approximately 15 miles from our corporate headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland. In addition, we distribute our
products in North America through a third-party logistics provider with primary locations in California and in
Florida. In late 2011, we began leasing a new distribution facility in California of approximately
1,197.0 thousand square feet which is also operated by this provider. The agreement with this provider continues
until May 2023. In some instances, we arrange to have products shipped from the independent factories that
manufacture our products directly to customer-designated facilities.

Other Foreign Countries

Only 6% of our net revenues were generated outside of North America in 2012. We believe the future

success of our brand is dependent on developing our business outside of North America.

4

EMEA

We sell our apparel, footwear and accessories to approximately four thousand retail stores and through our

websites in certain European countries. We also sell our apparel, footwear and accessories to independent
distributors in various European countries where we do not have direct sales operations. In addition, we sell our
branded products to soccer, running and golf clubs in the United Kingdom, soccer teams in France, Germany,
Greece, Ireland, Italy, Spain and Sweden, as well as First Division Rugby clubs in France, Ireland, Italy and the
United Kingdom. In 2012, we began selling the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club replica product for the Club’s
supporters around the world.

We generally distribute our products to our retail customers and e-commerce consumers in EMEA through a

third-party logistics provider based out of Venlo, The Netherlands. This agreement continues until April 2014.

Asia

Since 2002 we have had a license agreement with Dome Corporation, which produces, markets and sells our

branded apparel, footwear and accessories in Japan. We are actively involved with this licensee to develop
variations of our products for the different sizes, sports interests and preferences of the Japanese consumer. Our
branded products are now sold in Japan to professional sports teams, including Omiya Ardija, a professional
soccer club in Saitama, Japan, as well as baseball and other soccer teams, and to independent specialty stores and
large sporting goods retailers. We made a cost-based minority investment in Dome Corporation in January 2011.

We also sell our apparel, footwear and accessories to independent distributors in Australia and New Zealand

where we do not have direct sales operations.

As of December 31, 2012, we had 2 specialty stores located in Shanghai, China. We generally distribute our

products to our retail customers in Asia through a third-party logistics provider based out of Hong Kong.

Latin America

We sell to Latin American consumers through independent distributors in Latin American countries where

we do not have direct sales operations. We generally distribute our products to these independent distributors
through our distribution facilities in the United States.

Seasonality

Historically, we have recognized a significant portion of our income from operations in the last two quarters

of the year, driven primarily by increased sales volume of our products during the fall selling season, reflecting
our historical strength in fall sports, and the seasonality of our higher priced COLDGEAR® line. The majority of
our net revenues were generated during the last two quarters in each of 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The
level of our working capital generally reflects the seasonality and growth in our business. We generally expect
inventory, accounts payable and certain accrued expenses to be higher in the second and third quarters in
preparation for the fall selling season.

Product Design and Development

Our products are manufactured with technical fabrications produced by third parties and developed in

collaboration with our product development team. This approach enables us to select and create superior,
technically advanced fabrics, produced to our specifications, while focusing our product development efforts on
design, fit, climate and product end use.

5

We seek to regularly upgrade and improve our products with the latest in innovative technology while

broadening our product offerings. Our goal, to deliver superior performance in all our products, provides our
developers and licensees with a clear, overarching direction for the brand and helps them identify new
opportunities to create performance products that meet the changing needs of athletes. We design products with
“visible technology,” utilizing color, texture and fabrication to enhance our customers’ perception and
understanding of product use and benefits.

Our product development team works closely with our sports marketing and sales teams as well as
professional and collegiate athletes to identify product trends and determine market needs. For example, these
teams worked closely to identify the opportunity and market for our CHARGED COTTON® products, which are
made from natural cotton but perform like our synthetic products, drying faster and wicking away moisture from
the body, and our Storm Fleece products with a unique, water-resistant finish that repels water, without stifling
airflow. In 2012, in partnership with Swiss Company, Schoeller, we launched coldblack® technology which
repels heat created from the sun to keep the wearer cooler outside.

Sourcing, Manufacturing and Quality Assurance

Many of the specialty fabrics and other raw materials used in our products are technically advanced
products developed by third parties and may be available, in the short term, from a limited number of sources.
The fabric and other raw materials used to manufacture our products are sourced by our manufacturers from a
limited number of suppliers pre-approved by us. In 2012, approximately 50% to 55% of the fabric used in our
products came from five suppliers. These fabric suppliers have locations in China, Malaysia, Mexico, Taiwan
and Vietnam. We continue to seek new suppliers and believe, although there can be no assurance, that this
concentration will decrease over time. The fabrics used by our suppliers and manufacturers are primarily
synthetic fabrics and involve raw materials, including petroleum based products, that may be subject to price
fluctuations and shortages. In 2011, we introduced CHARGED COTTON® products which primarily use cotton
fabrics that also may be subject to price fluctuations and shortages.

Substantially all of our products are manufactured by unaffiliated manufacturers and, in 2012, ten
manufacturers produced approximately 49% of our products. In 2012, our products were manufactured by 27
primary manufacturers, operating in 14 countries, with approximately 53% of our products manufactured in Asia,
19% in Central and South America, 18% in the Middle East and 8% in Mexico. All manufacturers are evaluated
for quality systems, social compliance and financial strength by our quality assurance team prior to being
selected and on an ongoing basis. Where appropriate, we strive to qualify multiple manufacturers for particular
product types and fabrications. We also seek out vendors that can perform multiple manufacturing stages, such as
procuring raw materials and providing finished products, which helps us to control our cost of goods sold. We
enter into a variety of agreements with our manufacturers, including non-disclosure and confidentiality
agreements, and we require that all of our manufacturers adhere to a code of conduct regarding quality of
manufacturing and working conditions and other social concerns. We do not, however, have any long term
agreements requiring us to utilize any manufacturer, and no manufacturer is required to produce our products in
the long term. We have a subsidiary in Hong Kong to support our manufacturing, quality assurance and sourcing
efforts for apparel and a subsidiary in Guangzhou, China to support our manufacturing, quality assurance and
sourcing efforts for footwear and accessories.

We also manufacture a limited number of apparel products on-premises in our quick turn, Special Make-Up
Shop located at one of our distribution facilities in Maryland. Through this 17,000 square-foot shop, we are able
to build and ship apparel products on tight deadlines for high-profile athletes, leagues and teams. While the
apparel products manufactured in the quick turn, Special Make-Up Shop represent an immaterial portion of our
total net revenues, we believe the facility helps us to provide superior service to select customers.

Inventory Management

Inventory management is important to the financial condition and operating results of our business. We
manage our inventory levels based on any existing orders, anticipated sales and the rapid-delivery requirements
of our customers. Our inventory strategy is focused on continuing to meet consumer demand while improving
our inventory efficiency over the long term by putting systems and processes in place to improve our inventory
management. These systems and processes are designed to improve our forecasting and supply planning
capabilities. In addition to systems and processes, key areas of focus that we believe will enhance inventory
performance are SKU rationalization, added discipline around the purchasing of product, production lead time
reduction, and better planning and execution in selling of excess inventory through our factory house stores and
other liquidation channels.

Our practice, and the general practice in the apparel, footwear and accessory industries, is to offer retail

customers the right to return defective or improperly shipped merchandise. As it relates to new product
introductions, which can often require large initial launch shipments, we commence production before receiving
orders for those products from time to time. This can affect our inventory levels as we build pre-launch
quantities.

Intellectual Property

We believe we own the internally developed material trademarks used in connection with the marketing,

distribution and sale of all our products, both domestically and internationally, where our products are currently
sold or manufactured. Our major trademarks include the UA Logo and UNDER ARMOUR®, both of which are
registered in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the European Union, Japan, China and several other foreign
countries in which we sell or plan to sell our products. We also own trademark registrations for UA®,
ARMOUR®, HEATGEAR®, COLDGEAR®, ALLSEASONGEAR®, PROTECT THIS HOUSE®, I WILL®,
THE ADVANTAGE IS UNDENIABLE ®, ARMOUR BRA®, MPZ®, BOXERJOCK®, RECHARGE®,
COMBINE®, CHARGED COTTON®, MICRO G® and several other trademarks, including numerous
trademarks that incorporate the term ARMOUR such as ARMOURBITE®, ARMOURLOFT®,
ARMOURSTORM®, ARMOUR FLEECE®, BABY ARMOUR®, and several others. In addition, we have
applied to register numerous other trademarks including ARE YOU FROM HERE?™, ARMOUR39™ and
COLDGEAR INFRARED™. We also own domain names for our primary trademarks (most notably
underarmour.com and ua.com) and hold copyright registrations for several commercials, as well as for certain
artwork. We intend to continue to strategically register, both domestically and internationally, trademarks and
copyrights we utilize today and those we develop in the future. We will continue to aggressively police our
trademarks and pursue those who infringe, both domestically and internationally.

We believe the distinctive trademarks we use in connection with our products are important in building our

brand image and distinguishing our products from those of others. These trademarks are among our most
valuable assets. In addition to our distinctive trademarks, we also place significant value on our trade dress,
which is the overall image and appearance of our products, and we believe our trade dress helps to distinguish
our products in the marketplace.

The intellectual property rights in much of the technology, materials and processes used to manufacture our
products are often owned or controlled by our suppliers. However, we seek to protect certain innovative products
and features that we believe to be new, strategic and important to our business. In 2012, we filed several patent
applications in connection with certain of our products and designs that we believe offer a unique utility or
function. We will continue to file patent applications where we deem appropriate to protect our inventions and
designs, and we expect the number of applications to grow as our business grows and as we continue to innovate.

7

Competition

The market for performance apparel, footwear and accessories is highly competitive and includes many new

competitors as well as increased competition from established companies expanding their production and
marketing of performance products. The fabrics and technology used in manufacturing our products are generally
not unique to us, and we do not currently own any fabric or process patents. Many of our competitors are large
apparel, footwear and sporting goods companies with strong worldwide brand recognition and significantly
greater resources than us, such as Nike and adidas. We also compete with other manufacturers, including those
specializing in outdoor apparel, and private label offerings of certain retailers, including some of our customers.

In addition, we must compete with others for purchasing decisions, as well as limited floor space at retailers.
We believe we have been successful in this area because of the relationships we have developed and as a result of
the strong sales of our products. However, if retailers earn higher margins from our competitors’ products, they
may favor the display and sale of those products.

We believe we have been able to compete successfully because of our brand image and recognition, the
performance and quality of our products and our selective distribution policies. We also believe our focused
gearline merchandising story differentiates us from our competition. In the future we expect to compete for
consumer preferences and expect that we may face greater competition on pricing. This may favor larger
competitors with lower production costs per unit that can spread the effect of price discounts across a larger array
of products and across a larger customer base than ours. The purchasing decisions of consumers for our products
often reflect highly subjective preferences that can be influenced by many factors, including advertising, media,
product sponsorships, product improvements and changing styles.

Employees

As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately fifty nine hundred employees, including approximately

thirty two hundred in our factory house and specialty stores and nine hundred at our distribution facilities.
Approximately nineteen hundred of our employees were full-time. Most of our employees are located in the
United States and none of our employees are currently covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have
had no labor-related work stoppages, and we believe our relations with our employees are good.

Available Information

We will make available free of charge on or through our website at www.underarmour.com our annual

reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to these
reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably
practicable after we file these materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We also post on this
website our key corporate governance documents, including our board committee charters, our corporate
governance guidelines and our ethics policy.

Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected by numerous risks. You
should carefully consider the risk factors detailed below in conjunction with the other information contained
in this Form 10-K. Should any of these risks actually materialize, our business, financial condition and future
prospects could be negatively impacted.

During a downturn in the economy, consumer purchases of discretionary items are affected, which could
materially harm our sales, profitability and financial condition.

Many of our products may be considered discretionary items for consumers. Factors affecting the level of

consumer spending for such discretionary items include general economic conditions, the availability of
consumer credit and consumer confidence in future economic conditions. Consumer purchases of discretionary
items tend to decline during recessionary periods when disposable income is lower or during other periods of
economic instability or uncertainty. We have limited experience operating a business during a recessionary
period or during periods of slow economic growth and high unemployment and can therefore not predict the full
impact of a downturn in the economy on our sales and profitability, including how our business responds when
the economy is recovering from a recession or periods of slow growth. A downturn in the economy in markets in
which we sell our products may materially harm our sales, profitability and financial condition.

If the financial condition of our retail customers declines, our financial condition and results of operations
could be adversely impacted.

We extend credit to our customers based on an assessment of a customer’s financial condition, generally

without requiring collateral. We face increased risk of order reduction or cancellation when dealing with
financially ailing customers or customers struggling with economic uncertainty. A slowing economy in our key
markets or a continued decline in consumer purchases of sporting goods generally could have an adverse effect
on the financial health of our retail customers, which could in turn have an adverse effect on our sales, our ability
to collect on receivables and our financial condition.

A decline in sales to, or the loss of, one or more of our key customers could result in a material loss of net
revenues and negatively impact our prospects for growth.

In 2012, approximately 22% of our net revenues were generated from sales to our two largest customers.
We currently do not enter into long term sales contracts with these or our other key customers, relying instead on
our relationships with these customers and on our position in the marketplace. As a result, we face the risk that
one or more of these key customers may not increase their business with us as we expect, or may significantly
decrease their business with us or terminate their relationship with us. The failure to increase our sales to these
customers as much as we anticipate would have a negative impact on our growth prospects and any decrease or
loss of these key customers’ business could result in a material decrease in our net revenues and net income.

If we continue to grow at a rapid pace, we may not be able to effectively manage our growth and the
increased complexity of a global business and as a result our brand image, net revenues and profitability
may decline.

We have expanded our operations rapidly since our inception and our net revenues have increased to

$1,834.9 million in 2012 from $725.2 million in 2008. If our operations continue to grow at a rapid pace, we may
experience difficulties in obtaining sufficient raw materials and manufacturing capacity to produce our products,
as well as delays in production and shipments, as our products are subject to risks associated with overseas
sourcing and manufacturing. We could be required to continue to expand our sales and marketing, product
development and distribution functions, to upgrade our management information systems and other processes
and technology, and to obtain more space to support our expanding workforce. This expansion could increase the
strain on these and other resources, and we could experience serious operating difficulties, including difficulties
in hiring, training and managing an increasing number of employees. In addition, as our business becomes more

10

complex through the introduction of more new products and the expansion of our distribution channels, including
additional specialty and factory house stores and expanded distribution in malls and department stores, and
expanded international distribution, these operational strains and other difficulties could increase. These
difficulties could result in the erosion of our brand image and a decrease in net revenues and net income.

If we are unable to anticipate consumer preferences and successfully develop and introduce new,
innovative and updated products, we may not be able to maintain or increase our net revenues and
profitability.

Our success depends on our ability to identify and originate product trends as well as to anticipate and react

to changing consumer demands in a timely manner. All of our products are subject to changing consumer
preferences that cannot be predicted with certainty. Our new products may not receive consumer acceptance as
consumer preferences could shift rapidly to different types of performance or other sports products or away from
these types of products altogether, and our future success depends in part on our ability to anticipate and respond
to these changes. Failure to anticipate and respond in a timely manner to changing consumer preferences could
lead to, among other things, lower sales and excess inventory levels.

Even if we are successful in anticipating consumer preferences, our ability to adequately react to and
address those preferences will in part depend upon our continued ability to develop and introduce innovative,
high-quality products. In addition, if we fail to introduce technical innovation in our products, consumer demand
for our products could decline, and if we experience problems with the quality of our products, we may incur
substantial expense to remedy the problems. The failure to effectively introduce new products and enter into new
product categories that are accepted by consumers could result in a decrease in net revenues and excess inventory
levels, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Our results of operations could be materially harmed if we are unable to accurately forecast demand for
our products.

To ensure adequate inventory supply, we must forecast inventory needs and place orders with our
manufacturers before firm orders are placed by our customers. In addition, a significant portion of our net
revenues are generated by at-once orders for immediate delivery to customers, particularly during our historical
peak season from August through November. If we fail to accurately forecast customer demand we may
experience excess inventory levels or a shortage of product to deliver to our customers.

Factors that could affect our ability to accurately forecast demand for our products include:

•

•

•

•

•

an increase or decrease in consumer demand for our products;

our failure to accurately forecast consumer acceptance for our new products;

product introductions by competitors;

unanticipated changes in general market conditions or other factors, which may result in cancellations
of advance orders or a reduction or increase in the rate of reorders placed by retailers;

the impact on consumer demand due to unseasonable weather conditions;

• weakening of economic conditions or consumer confidence in future economic conditions, which could

reduce demand for discretionary items, such as our products; and

•

terrorism or acts of war, or the threat thereof, or political instability or unrest which could adversely
affect consumer confidence and spending or interrupt production and distribution of product and raw
materials.

Inventory levels in excess of customer demand may result in inventory write-downs or write-offs and the
sale of excess inventory at discounted prices, which would have an adverse effect on gross margin. In addition, if

11

we underestimate the demand for our products, our manufacturers may not be able to produce products to meet
our customer requirements, and this could result in delays in the shipment of our products and our ability to
recognize revenue, as well as damage to our reputation and customer relationships.

The difficulty in forecasting demand also makes it difficult to estimate our future results of operations and

financial condition from period to period. A failure to accurately predict the level of demand for our products
could adversely impact our profitability.

We operate in a highly competitive market and the size and resources of some of our competitors may
allow them to compete more effectively than we can, resulting in a loss of our market share and a decrease
in our net revenues and gross profit.

The market for performance apparel, footwear and accessories is highly competitive and includes many new

competitors as well as increased competition from established companies expanding their production and
marketing of performance products. Because we currently do not own any fabric or process patents, our current
and future competitors are able to manufacture and sell products with performance characteristics and
fabrications similar to our products. Many of our competitors are large apparel and footwear companies with
strong worldwide brand recognition. Due to the fragmented nature of the industry, we also compete with other
manufacturers, including those specializing in outdoor apparel and private label offerings of certain retailers,
including some of our retail customers. Many of our competitors have significant competitive advantages,
including greater financial, distribution, marketing and other resources, longer operating histories, better brand
recognition among consumers, more experience in global markets and greater economies of scale. In addition,
our competitors have long term relationships with our key retail customers that are potentially more important to
those customers because of the significantly larger volume and product mix that our competitors sell to them. As
a result, these competitors may be better equipped than we are to influence consumer preferences or otherwise
increase their market share by:

•

•

•

•

•

•

quickly adapting to changes in customer requirements;

readily taking advantage of acquisition and other opportunities;

discounting excess inventory that has been written down or written off;

devoting resources to the marketing and sale of their products, including significant advertising, media
placement, partnerships and product endorsement;

adopting aggressive pricing policies; and

engaging in lengthy and costly intellectual property and other disputes.

In addition, while one of our growth strategies is to increase floor space for our products in retail stores and
generally expand our distribution to other retailers, retailers have limited resources and floor space, and we must
compete with others to develop relationships with them. Increased competition by existing and future
competitors could result in reductions in floor space in retail locations, reductions in sales or reductions in the
prices of our products, and if retailers earn greater margins from our competitors’ products, they may favor the
display and sale of those products. Our inability to compete successfully against our competitors and maintain
our gross margin could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Our profitability may decline as a result of increasing pressure on margins.

Our industry is subject to significant pricing pressure caused by many factors, including intense
competition, consolidation in the retail industry, pressure from retailers to reduce the costs of products and
changes in consumer demand. These factors may cause us to reduce our prices to retailers and consumers, which
could cause our profitability to decline if we are unable to offset price reductions with comparable reductions in
our operating costs. This could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

12

Fluctuations in the cost of products could negatively affect our operating results.

The fabrics used by our suppliers and manufacturers are made of raw materials including petroleum-based

products and cotton. Significant price fluctuations or shortages in petroleum or other raw materials can materially
adversely affect our cost of goods sold, results of operations and financial condition.

We rely on third-party suppliers and manufacturers to provide fabrics for and to produce our products,
and we have limited control over these suppliers and manufacturers and may not be able to obtain quality
products on a timely basis or in sufficient quantity.

Many of the specialty fabrics used in our products are technically advanced textile products developed by
third parties and may be available, in the short-term, from a very limited number of sources. Substantially all of
our products are manufactured by unaffiliated manufacturers, and, in 2012, ten manufacturers produced
approximately 49% of our products. We have no long term contracts with our suppliers or manufacturing
sources, and we compete with other companies for fabrics, raw materials, production and import quota capacity.

We may experience a significant disruption in the supply of fabrics or raw materials from current sources or,

in the event of a disruption, we may be unable to locate alternative materials suppliers of comparable quality at
an acceptable price, or at all. In addition, our unaffiliated manufacturers may not be able to fill our orders in a
timely manner. If we experience significant increased demand, or we lose or need to replace an existing
manufacturer or supplier as a result of adverse economic conditions or other reasons, additional supplies of
fabrics or raw materials or additional manufacturing capacity may not be available when required on terms that
are acceptable to us, or at all, or suppliers or manufacturers may not be able to allocate sufficient capacity to us in
order to meet our requirements. In addition, even if we are able to expand existing or find new manufacturing or
fabric sources, we may encounter delays in production and added costs as a result of the time it takes to train our
suppliers and manufacturers on our methods, products and quality control standards. Any delays, interruption or
increased costs in the supply of fabric or manufacture of our products could have an adverse effect on our ability
to meet retail customer and consumer demand for our products and result in lower net revenues and net income
both in the short and long term.

We have occasionally received, and may in the future continue to receive, shipments of product that fail to

conform to our quality control standards. In that event, unless we are able to obtain replacement products in a
timely manner, we risk the loss of net revenues resulting from the inability to sell those products and related
increased administrative and shipping costs. In addition, because we do not control our manufacturers, products
that fail to meet our standards or other unauthorized products could end up in the marketplace without our
knowledge, which could harm our brand and our reputation in the marketplace.

Labor disruptions at ports or our suppliers or manufacturers may adversely affect our business.

Our business depends on our ability to source and distribute products in a timely manner. As a result, we

rely on the free flow of goods through open and operational ports worldwide and on a consistent basis from our
suppliers and manufacturers. Labor disputes at various ports or at our suppliers or manufacturers create
significant risks for our business, particularly if these disputes result in work slowdowns, lockouts, strikes or
other disruptions during our peak importing or manufacturing seasons, and could have an adverse effect on our
business, potentially resulting in canceled orders by customers, unanticipated inventory accumulation or
shortages and reduced net revenues and net income.

Our limited operating experience and limited brand recognition in new markets may limit our expansion
strategy and cause our business and growth to suffer.

Our future growth depends in part on our expansion efforts outside of the North America. During the year
ended December 31, 2012, 94% of our net revenues were earned in North America. We have limited experience
with regulatory environments and market practices outside of North America, and may face difficulties in

13

expanding to and successfully operating in markets outside of North America. In connection with expansion
efforts outside of North America, we may face cultural and linguistic differences, differences in regulatory
environments, labor practices and market practices and difficulties in keeping abreast of market, business and
technical developments and customers’ tastes and preferences. We may also encounter difficulty expanding into
new markets because of limited brand recognition leading to delayed acceptance of our products. Failure to
develop new markets outside of North America will limit our opportunities for growth.

The operations of many of our manufacturers are subject to additional risks that are beyond our control
and that could harm our business.

In 2012, our products were manufactured by 27 primary manufacturers, operating in 14 countries. Of these,
ten manufactured approximately 49% of our products, at locations in Cambodia, China, El Salvador, Honduras,
Jordan, Mexico, Nicaragua and the Philippines. During 2012, approximately 53% of our products were
manufactured in Asia, 19% in Central and South America, 18% in the Middle East and 8% in Mexico. As a result
of our international manufacturing, we are subject to risks associated with doing business abroad, including:

•

•

•

•

•

•

political or labor unrest, terrorism and economic instability resulting in the disruption of trade from
foreign countries in which our products are manufactured;

currency exchange fluctuations;

the imposition of new laws and regulations, including those relating to labor conditions, quality and
safety standards, imports, duties, taxes and other charges on imports, trade restrictions and restrictions
on the transfer of funds, as well as rules and regulations regarding climate change;

reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;

disruptions or delays in shipments; and

changes in local economic conditions in countries where our manufacturers and suppliers are located.

Sales of performance products may not continue to grow and this could adversely impact our ability to
grow our business.

We believe continued growth in industry-wide sales of performance apparel, footwear and accessories will

be largely dependent on consumers continuing to transition from traditional alternatives to performance products.
If consumers are not convinced these products are a better choice than traditional alternatives, growth in the
industry and our business could be adversely affected. In addition, because performance products are often more
expensive than traditional alternatives, consumers who are convinced these products provide a better alternative
may still not be convinced they are worth the extra cost. If industry-wide sales of performance products do not
grow, our ability to continue to grow our business and our financial condition and results of operations could be
materially adversely impacted.

Our revolving credit facility provides our lenders with a first-priority lien against substantially all of our
assets and contains financial covenants and other restrictions on our actions, and it could therefore limit
our operational flexibility or otherwise adversely affect our financial condition.

We have, from time to time, financed our liquidity needs in part from borrowings made under a revolving

credit facility. Our revolving credit facility provides for a committed revolving credit line of up to $300.0
million. The agreement for our revolving credit facility contains a number of restrictions that limit our ability,
among other things, to:

•

•

use our accounts receivable, inventory, trademarks and most of our other assets as security in other
borrowings or transactions;

incur additional indebtedness;

14

•

sell certain assets;

• make certain investments;

•

•

guarantee certain obligations of third parties;

undergo a merger or consolidation; and

• materially change our line of business.

Our revolving credit facility also provides the lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if

we are in compliance with all conditions of the revolving credit facility, upon a material adverse change to our
business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, we must maintain a certain
leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. Failure to comply with these
operating or financial covenants could result from, among other things, changes in our results of operations or
general economic conditions. These covenants may restrict our ability to engage in transactions that would
otherwise be in our best interests. Failure to comply with any of the covenants under the credit agreement could
result in a default. In addition, the credit agreement includes a cross default provision whereby an event of
default under certain other debt obligations will be considered an event of default under the credit agreement. A
default under the credit agreement could cause the lenders to accelerate the timing of payments and exercise their
lien on essentially all of our assets, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operations,
financial condition and liquidity. In addition, because borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest
at variable interest rates, which we do not anticipate hedging against, increases in interest rates would increase
our cost of borrowing, resulting in a decline in our net income and cash flow. There were no amounts outstanding
under our revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2012.

We may need to raise additional capital required to grow our business, and we may not be able to raise
capital on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Growing and operating our business will require significant cash outlays and capital expenditures and

commitments. If cash on hand and cash generated from operations are not sufficient to meet our cash
requirements, we will need to seek additional capital, potentially through debt or equity financing, to fund our
growth. We may not be able to raise needed cash on terms acceptable to us or at all. Financing may be on terms
that are dilutive or potentially dilutive to our stockholders, and the prices at which new investors would be
willing to purchase our securities may be lower than the current price per share of our common stock. The
holders of new securities may also have rights, preferences or privileges which are senior to those of existing
holders of common stock. If new sources of financing are required, but are insufficient or unavailable, we will be
required to modify our growth and operating plans based on available funding, if any, which would harm our
ability to grow our business.

Our operating results are subject to seasonal and quarterly variations in our net revenues and net income,
which could adversely affect the price of our Class A Common Stock.

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, seasonal and quarterly variations in our net
revenues and net income. These variations are primarily related to increased sales of our products during the fall
season, reflecting our historical strength in fall sports, and the seasonality of sales of our higher priced
COLDGEAR® line. The majority of our net revenues were generated during the last two quarters in each of
2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Our quarterly results of operations may also fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of other factors,
including, among other things, the timing and introduction of advertising for new products and changes in our
product mix. Variations in weather conditions may also have an adverse effect on our quarterly results of
operations. For example, warmer than normal weather conditions throughout the fall or winter may reduce sales
of our COLDGEAR® line, leaving us with excess inventory and operating results below our expectations.

15

As a result of these seasonal and quarterly fluctuations, we believe that comparisons of our operating results
between different quarters within a single year are not necessarily meaningful and that these comparisons cannot
be relied upon as indicators of our future performance. Any seasonal or quarterly fluctuations that we report in
the future may not match the expectations of market analysts and investors. This could cause the price of our
Class A Common Stock to fluctuate significantly.

The value of our brand and sales of our products could be diminished if we are associated with negative
publicity.

We require our suppliers, independent manufacturers and licensees of our products to operate their
businesses in compliance with the laws and regulations that apply to them as well as the social and other
standards and policies we impose on them. We do not control these suppliers, manufacturers or licensees or their
labor practices. A violation of our policies, labor laws or other laws by our suppliers, manufacturers or licensees
could interrupt or otherwise disrupt our sourcing or damage our brand image. Negative publicity regarding the
production methods of any of our suppliers, manufacturers or licensees could adversely affect our reputation and
sales and force us to locate alternative suppliers, manufacturing sources or licensees.

In addition, we have sponsorship contracts with a variety of athletes and feature those athletes in our
advertising and marketing efforts, and many athletes and teams use our products, including those teams or
leagues for which we are an official supplier. Actions taken by athletes, teams or leagues associated with our
products could harm the reputations of those athletes, teams or leagues. As a result, our brand image, net
revenues and profitability could be adversely affected.

Sponsorships and designations as an official supplier may become more expensive and this could impact
the value of our brand image.

A key element of our marketing strategy has been to create a link in the consumer market between our
products and professional and collegiate athletes. We have developed licensing agreements to be the official
supplier of performance apparel and footwear to a variety of sports teams and leagues at the collegiate and
professional level and sponsorship agreements with athletes. However, as competition in the performance apparel
and footwear industry has increased, the costs associated with athlete sponsorships and official supplier licensing
agreements have increased, including the costs associated with obtaining and retaining these sponsorships and
agreements. If we are unable to maintain our current association with professional and collegiate athletes, teams
and leagues, or to do so at a reasonable cost, we could lose the on-field authenticity associated with our products,
and we may be required to modify and substantially increase our marketing investments. As a result, our brand
image, net revenues, expenses and profitability could be materially adversely affected.

If we encounter problems with our distribution system, our ability to deliver our products to the market
could be adversely affected.

We rely on a limited number of distribution facilities for our product distribution. Our distribution facilities
utilize computer controlled and automated equipment, which means the operations are complicated and may be
subject to a number of risks related to security or computer viruses, the proper operation of software and
hardware, power interruptions or other system failures. In addition, because many of our products are distributed
from two nearby locations in Maryland, our operations could also be interrupted by floods, fires or other natural
disasters near our distribution facilities, as well as labor difficulties. We maintain business interruption insurance,
but it may not adequately protect us from the adverse effects that could be caused by significant disruptions in
our distribution facilities, such as the long term loss of customers or an erosion of our brand image. In addition,
our distribution capacity is dependent on the timely performance of services by third parties, including the
shipping of product to and from our distribution facilities. If we encounter problems with our distribution
facilities, our ability to meet customer expectations, manage inventory, complete sales and achieve objectives for
operating efficiencies could be materially adversely affected.

16

We rely significantly on information technology and any failure, inadequacy, interruption or security lapse
of that technology could harm our ability to effectively operate our business.

Our ability to effectively manage and maintain our inventory and internal reports, and to ship products to

customers and invoice them on a timely basis depends significantly on our enterprise resource planning,
warehouse management, and other information systems. The failure of these systems to operate effectively or to
integrate with other systems, or a breach in security of these systems could cause delays in product fulfillment
and reduced efficiency of our operations, and it could require significant capital investments to remediate any
such failure, problem or breach.

Hackers and data thieves are increasingly sophisticated and operate large scale and complex automated

attacks. Any breach of our network may result in the loss of valuable business data, our customers’ or
employees’ personal information or a disruption of our business, which could give rise to unwanted media
attention, damage our customer relationships and reputation and result in lost sales, fines or lawsuits. In addition,
we must comply with increasingly complex regulatory standards enacted to protect this business and personal
data. An inability to maintain compliance with these regulatory standards could subject us to legal risks.

Changes in tax laws and unanticipated tax liabilities could adversely affect our effective income tax rate
and profitability.

We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Our effective
income tax rate could be adversely affected in the future by a number of factors, including: changes in the mix of
earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and
liabilities, changes in tax laws, the outcome of income tax audits in various jurisdictions around the world, and
any repatriation of non-US earnings for which we have not previously provided for U.S. taxes. We regularly
assess all of these matters to determine the adequacy of our tax provision, which is subject to significant
discretion.

Our financial results may be adversely affected if substantial investments in businesses and operations fail
to produce expected returns.

From time to time, we may invest in business infrastructure, new businesses, and expansion of existing
businesses, such as recent investments in our direct to consumer sales channel or our recent minority investment
in our Japanese licensee. These investments require substantial cash investments and management attention. We
believe cost effective investments are essential to business growth and profitability. However, significant
investments are subject to typical risks and uncertainties inherent in acquiring or expanding a business. The
failure of any significant investment to provide the returns or profitability we expect could have a material
adverse effect on our financial results and divert management attention from more profitable business operations.

Our future success is substantially dependent on the continued service of our senior management and
other key employees.

Our future success is substantially dependent on the continued service of our senior management and other
key employees, particularly Kevin A. Plank, our founder, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. The
loss of the services of our senior management or other key employees could make it more difficult to
successfully operate our business and achieve our business goals.

We also may be unable to retain existing management, product creation, sales, marketing, operational and

other support personnel that are critical to our success, which could result in harm to key customer relationships,
loss of key information, expertise or know-how and unanticipated recruitment and training costs.

17

If we are unable to attract and retain new team members, including senior management, we may not be
able to achieve our business objectives.

Our growth has largely been the result of significant contributions by our current senior management,
product design teams and other key employees. However, to be successful in continuing to grow our business, we
will need to continue to attract, retain and motivate highly talented management and other employees with a
range of skills and experience. Competition for employees in our industry is intense and we have experienced
difficulty from time to time in attracting the personnel necessary to support the growth of our business, and we
may experience similar difficulties in the future. If we are unable to attract, assimilate and retain management
and other employees with the necessary skills, we may not be able to grow or successfully operate our business.

Our failure to comply with trade and other regulations could lead to investigations or actions by
government regulators and negative publicity.

The labeling, distribution, importation, marketing and sale of our products are subject to extensive
regulation by various federal agencies, including the Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Product Safety
Commission and state attorneys general in the U.S., as well as by various other federal, state, provincial, local
and international regulatory authorities in the locations in which our products are distributed or sold. If we fail to
comply with those regulations, we could become subject to significant penalties or claims, which could harm our
results of operations or our ability to conduct our business. In addition, the adoption of new regulations or
changes in the interpretation of existing regulations may result in significant compliance costs or discontinuation
of product sales and may impair the marketing of our products, resulting in significant loss of net revenues.

Kevin Plank, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President controls the majority of the voting
power of our common stock.

Our Class A Common Stock, or Class A Stock, has one vote per share and our Class B Convertible

Common Stock, or Class B Stock, has 10 votes per share. Our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President,
Kevin A. Plank, beneficially owns all outstanding shares of Class B Stock. As a result, Mr. Plank has the
majority voting control and is able to direct the election of all of the members of our Board of Directors and other
matters we submit to a vote of our stockholders. This concentration of voting control may have various effects
including, but not limited to, delaying or preventing a change of control. The Class B Stock automatically
converts to Class A Stock when Mr. Plank beneficially owns less than 15.0% of the total number of shares of
Class A and Class B Stock outstanding. Otherwise the Class B Stock does not convert to Class A Stock until
Mr. Plank’s death or disability. As a result, Mr. Plank can retain his voting control even after he is no longer
affiliated with the Company.

Our fabrics and manufacturing technology are not patented and can be imitated by our competitors.

The intellectual property rights in the technology, fabrics and processes used to manufacture our products
are generally owned or controlled by our suppliers and are generally not unique to us. Our ability to obtain patent
protection for our products is limited and we currently own no fabric or process patents. As a result, our current
and future competitors are able to manufacture and sell products with performance characteristics and
fabrications similar to our products. Because many of our competitors have significantly greater financial,
distribution, marketing and other resources than we do, they may be able to manufacture and sell products based
on our fabrics and manufacturing technology at lower prices than we can. If our competitors do sell similar
products to ours at lower prices, our net revenues and profitability could be materially adversely affected.

Our trademark and other proprietary rights could potentially conflict with the rights of others and we
may be prevented from selling some of our products.

Our success depends in large part on our brand image. We believe our registered and common law

trademarks have significant value and are important to identifying and differentiating our products from those of
our competitors and creating and sustaining demand for our products. There may be obstacles that arise as we

18

expand our product line and geographic scope of our marketing. From time to time, we have received or brought
claims relating to intellectual property rights of others, and we expect such claims will continue or increase,
particularly as we expand our business and the number of products we offer. Any such claim, regardless of its
merit, could be expensive and time consuming to defend or prosecute. Successful infringement claims against us
could result in significant monetary liability or prevent us from selling some of our products. In addition,
resolution of claims may require us to redesign our products, license rights belonging to third parties or cease
using those rights altogether. Any of these events could harm our business and have a material adverse effect on
our results of operations and financial condition.

Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights could diminish the value of our brand, weaken our
competitive position and reduce our net revenues.

We currently rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade dress laws, patent laws, unfair
competition laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to establish and protect our intellectual
property rights. The steps taken by us to protect our proprietary rights may not be adequate to prevent
infringement of our trademarks and proprietary rights by others, including imitation of our products and
misappropriation of our brand. In addition, intellectual property protection may be unavailable or limited in some
foreign countries where laws or law enforcement practices may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in
the United States, and it may be more difficult for us to successfully challenge the use of our proprietary rights
by other parties in these countries. If we fail to protect and maintain our intellectual property rights, the value of
our brand could be diminished and our competitive position may suffer.

From time to time, we discover unauthorized products in the marketplace that are either counterfeit

reproductions of our products or unauthorized irregulars that do not meet our quality control standards. If we are
unsuccessful in challenging a third party’s products on the basis of trademark infringement, continued sales of
their products could adversely impact our brand, result in the shift of consumer preferences away from our
products and adversely affect our business.

We have licensed in the past, and expect to license in the future, certain of our proprietary rights, such as

trademarks or copyrighted material, to third parties. These licensees may take actions that diminish the value of
our proprietary rights or harm our reputation.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial

Statements and related notes and the information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K under the captions
“Risk Factors,” “Selected Financial Data,” and “Business.”

Overview

We are a leading developer, marketer and distributor of branded performance apparel, footwear and
accessories. The brand’s moisture-wicking fabrications are engineered in many different designs and styles for
wear in nearly every climate to provide a performance alternative to traditional products. Our products are sold
worldwide and worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to professional, on playing fields around the globe, as
well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

Our net revenues grew to $1,834.9 million in 2012 from $725.2 million in 2008. We believe that our growth

in net revenues has been driven by a growing interest in performance products and the strength of the Under
Armour brand in the marketplace. We plan to continue to increase our net revenues over the long term by
increased sales of our apparel, footwear and accessories, expansion of our wholesale distribution sales channel,
growth in our direct to consumer sales channel and expansion in international markets. Our direct to consumer
sales channel includes our factory house and specialty stores and websites. New offerings for 2012 include our
new UA Studio line, the Armour Bra, coldblack® technology, Under Armour scent control technology and UA
Spine footwear.

A large majority of our products are sold in North America; however, we believe our products appeal to
athletes and consumers with active lifestyles around the globe. Internationally, our products are offered primarily
in Austria, Germany, Panama, Spain and the United Kingdom. A third party licensee sells our products in Japan
and distributors sell our products in other foreign countries. We hold a minority investment in our licensee in
Japan.

Our operating segments are geographic and include North America; Latin America; Europe, the Middle East

and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia. Due to the insignificance of the EMEA, Latin America and Asia operating
segments, they have been combined into other foreign countries for disclosure purposes.

We believe there is an increasing recognition of the health benefits of an active lifestyle. We believe this

trend provides us with an expanding consumer base for our products. We also believe there is a continuing shift
in consumer demand from traditional non-performance products to performance products, which are intended to
provide better performance by wicking perspiration away from the skin, helping to regulate body temperature
and enhancing comfort. We believe that these shifts in consumer preferences and lifestyles are not unique to the
United States, but are occurring in a number of markets globally, thereby increasing our opportunities to
introduce our performance products to new consumers.

Although we believe these trends will facilitate our growth, we also face potential challenges that could
limit our ability to take advantage of these opportunities, including, among others, the risk of general economic
or market conditions that could affect consumer spending and the financial health of our retail customers. In
addition, we may not be able to effectively manage our growth and a more complex business. We may not
consistently be able to anticipate consumer preferences and develop new and innovative products that meet
changing preferences in a timely manner. Furthermore, our industry is very competitive, and competition
pressures could cause us to reduce the prices of our products or otherwise affect our profitability. We also rely on
third-party suppliers and manufacturers outside the U.S. to provide fabrics and to produce our products, and
disruptions to our supply chain could harm our business. For a more complete discussion of the risks facing our
business, refer to the “Risk Factors” section included in Item 1A.

27

General

Net revenues comprise both net sales and license revenues. Net sales comprise sales from our primary
product categories, which are apparel, footwear and accessories. Our license revenues consist of fees paid to us
by our licensees in exchange for the use of our trademarks on core products of socks, team uniforms, baby and
kids’ apparel, eyewear, inflatable footballs and basketballs, as well as the distribution of our products in Japan.
Beginning in 2011, net sales includes the sales and related cost of goods sold of internally developed hats and
bags. Prior to 2011, hats and bags were sold by a licensee. Net revenues increased by approximately $65 million
from 2010 to 2011 as a result of developing our own hats and bags, which includes an increase in accessories
revenues and a decrease in our license revenues in 2011.

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of product costs, inbound freight and duty costs, outbound freight
costs, handling costs to make products floor-ready to customer specifications, royalty payments to endorsers
based on a predetermined percentage of sales of selected products and write downs for inventory obsolescence.
The fabrics in many of our products are made primarily of petroleum-based synthetic materials. Therefore our
product costs, as well as our inbound and outbound freight costs, could be affected by long term pricing trends of
oil. In general, as a percentage of net revenues, we expect cost of goods sold associated with our apparel and
accessories to be lower than that of our footwear. No cost of goods sold is associated with license revenues.

We include outbound freight costs associated with shipping goods to customers as cost of goods sold;

however, we include the majority of outbound handling costs as a component of selling, general and
administrative expenses. As a result, our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other companies that
include outbound handling costs in their cost of goods sold. Outbound handling costs include costs associated
with preparing goods to ship to customers and certain costs to operate our distribution facilities. These costs were
$34.8 million, $26.1 million and $14.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010,
respectively.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist of costs related to marketing, selling, product
innovation and supply chain and corporate services. Personnel costs are included in these categories based on the
employees’ function. Personnel costs include salaries, benefits, incentives and stock-based compensation related
to the employee. Our marketing costs are an important driver of our growth. Marketing costs consist primarily of
commercials, print ads, league, team, player and event sponsorships and depreciation expense specific to our in-
store fixture program. In addition, marketing costs include costs associated with our Special Make-Up Shop
(“SMU Shop”) located at one of our distribution facilities where we manufacture a limited number of products
primarily for our league, team, player and event sponsorships. Selling costs consist primarily of costs relating to
sales through our wholesale channel, commissions paid to third parties and the majority of our direct to consumer
sales channel costs, including the cost of factory house and specialty store leases. Product innovation and supply
chain costs include our apparel, footwear and accessories product innovation, sourcing and development costs,
distribution facility operating costs, and costs relating to our Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China offices which
help support product development, manufacturing, quality assurance and sourcing efforts. Corporate services
primarily consist of corporate facility operating costs and company-wide administrative expenses.

Other expense, net consists of unrealized and realized gains and losses on our foreign currency derivative

financial instruments and unrealized and realized gains and losses on adjustments that arise from fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates relating to transactions generated by our international subsidiaries.

Net sales increased $354.0 million, or 24.7%, to $1,790.1 million in 2012 from $1,436.1 million in 2011 as

noted in the table above. The increase in net sales primarily reflects:

•

•

•

$134.7 million, or 33.8%, increase in direct to consumer sales, which includes 22 additional factory
house stores, or a 27.5% increase, since December 31, 2011; and

unit growth driven by increased distribution and new offerings in multiple product categories, most
significantly in our training, hunting, running, baselayer and studio apparel product categories and
running footwear category, including the launch of coldblack apparel, Armour Bra and Under Armour
scent control products and our UA Spine footwear; and

increased average selling prices due to a higher mix in the current year period of direct to consumer
sales, along with increasing sales of our higher priced products such as Fleece, our women’s UA Studio
line and UA Spine footwear.

License revenues increased $8.2 million, or 22.5%, to $44.8 million in 2012 from $36.6 million in 2011.
This increase in license revenues was a result of increased distribution and continued unit volume growth by our
licensees.

Gross profit increased $166.5 million to $879.3 million in 2012 from $712.8 million in 2011. Gross profit as
a percentage of net revenues, or gross margin, decreased 50 basis points to 47.9% in 2012 compared to 48.4% in
2011. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily driven by the following:

•

•

approximate 35 basis point decrease driven by sales mix. The sales mix impact was partially driven by
increased sales of excess inventory through our factory house stores at lower prices, along with a larger
proportion of footwear sales, primarily due to new 2012 running styles and growth within our cleated
shoe sales. We do not expect the negative sales mix impact from factory house stores to continue as we
progress through 2013; and

approximate 25 basis point decrease driven by higher inbound freight, partially due to supply chain
challenges, required to meet customer demand. We expect this year over year negative impact will
continue through the first half of 2013.

The above decreases were partially offset by the below increase:

•

approximate 20 basis point increase driven primarily by lower North American apparel product input
costs, partially offset by higher North American accessories and footwear input costs. We expect the
North American apparel product input cost margin favorability will continue through the first half of
2013.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $120.5 million to $670.6 million in 2012 from
$550.1 million in 2011. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased
to 36.5% in 2012 from 37.3% in 2011. These changes were primarily attributable to the following:

• Marketing costs increased $37.5 million to $205.4 million in 2012 from $167.9 million in 2011

primarily due to increased marketing campaigns for key apparel and footwear launches in 2012 and
sponsorship of collegiate and professional teams and athletes, including Tottenham Hotspur Football
Club. As a percentage of net revenues, marketing costs decreased slightly to 11.2% in 2012 from
11.4% in 2011.

•

•

Selling costs increased $37.2 million to $176.0 million in 2012 from $138.8 million in 2011. This
increase was primarily due to higher personnel and other costs incurred primarily for the continued
expansion of our direct to consumer distribution channel. As a percentage of net revenues, selling costs
increased slightly to 9.6% in 2012 from 9.4% in 2011.

Product innovation and supply chain costs increased $29.4 million to $158.5 million in 2012 from
$129.1 million in 2011 primarily due to higher distribution facilities operating and personnel costs to

30

support our growth in net revenues and higher personnel costs for the design and sourcing of our
expanding apparel, footwear and accessory lines. As a percentage of net revenues, product innovation
and supply chain costs decreased slightly to 8.6% in 2012 from 8.8% in 2011.

• Corporate services costs increased $16.4 million to $130.7 million in 2012 from $114.3 million in
2011. This increase was primarily attributable to higher corporate personnel cost and information
technology initiatives necessary to support our growth. As a percentage of net revenues, corporate
services costs decreased to 7.1% in 2012 from 7.7% in 2011 primarily due to decreased corporate
personnel costs as a percentage of net revenues in 2012.

Income from operations increased $45.9 million, or 28.2%, to $208.7 million in 2012 from $162.8 million in

2011. Income from operations as a percentage of net revenues increased to 11.4% in 2012 from 11.1% in 2011.
This increase was a result of the items discussed above.

Interest expense, net increased $1.4 million to $5.2 million in 2012 from $3.8 million in 2011. This increase
was primarily due to a full year of interest on the debt related to the acquisition of our corporate headquarters in
2012 as compared to 2011.

Other expense, net decreased $2.0 million to $0.1 million in 2012 from $2.1 million in 2011. This decrease

was due to lower net losses in 2012 on the combined foreign currency exchange rate changes on transactions
denominated in foreign currencies and our foreign currency derivative financial instruments as compared to
2011.

Provision for income taxes increased $14.8 million to $74.7 million in 2012 from $59.9 million in 2011. Our

effective tax rate was 36.7% in 2012 compared to 38.2% in 2011, primarily due to state tax credits received in
2012.

Year Ended December 31, 2011 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2010

Net revenues increased $408.8 million, or 38.4%, to $1,472.7 million in 2011 from $1,063.9 million in

Net sales increased $411.5 million, or 40.2%, to $1,436.1 million in 2011 from $1,024.6 million in 2010 as

noted in the table above. The increase in net sales primarily reflects:

•

•

$152.7 million, or 62.2%, increase in direct to consumer sales, which include 26 additional factory house
stores, or a 48% increase, since December 31, 2010, along with the launch of our updated e-commerce
website;

unit growth driven by increased distribution and new offerings in multiple product categories, most
significantly in our training (including Fleece and our new CHARGED COTTON® product), graphics
(primarily including Tech-Tees), baselayer, running, hunting and golf apparel categories, along with
running and basketball shoes; and

31

•

$88.5 million, or 201.7%, increase in wholesale accessories sales primarily due to bringing hats and
bags sales in-house effective January 2011.

License revenues decreased $2.8 million, or 7.1%, to $36.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011

from $39.4 million during the same period in 2010. This decrease in license revenues was a result of a $9.7
million reduction in license revenues related to hats and bags, partially offset by increased sales by our licensees
due to increased distribution and continued unit volume growth.

Gross profit increased $182.3 million to $712.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $530.5
million for the same period in 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, or gross margin, decreased 150
basis points to 48.4% for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 49.9% during the same period in 2010.
The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily driven by the following:

•

•

approximate 110 basis point decrease driven primarily by higher apparel product input costs, now
including cotton, in the current year period. A smaller contributor to the decrease was a lower
percentage mix of higher margin North American wholesale apparel and factory house product sales in
the current year period. A significant driver to the sales mix impact included a lower percentage of
higher margin baselayer and underwear product, partially due to the significant expansion of training
apparel product offerings, including Fleece and the introduction of CHARGED COTTON®; and

approximate 45 basis point decrease driven by a lower license revenues due to bringing hats and bags
sales in-house effective January 1, 2011.

The above decreases were partially offset by the below increase:

•

approximate 10 basis point increase driven by a decreasing negative margin impact of sales apparel
discounts and returns.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $131.9 million to $550.1 million for the year ended

December 31, 2011 from $418.2 million for the same period in 2010. As a percentage of net revenues, selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased to 37.3% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 39.3% for
the same period in 2010. These changes were primarily attributable to the following:

• Marketing costs increased $39.7 million to $167.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from
$128.2 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to increased sponsorships of events and
collegiate and professional teams and athletes, increased television and digital campaign costs,
including media campaigns for specific customers. As a percentage of net revenues, marketing costs
decreased to 11.4% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 12.0% for the same period in 2010
primarily due to decreased marketing costs for specific customers as a percentage of net revenues.

•

•

Selling costs increased $44.2 million to $138.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from
$94.6 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was primarily due to higher personnel and
other costs incurred for the continued expansion of our direct to consumer distribution channel and
higher selling personnel costs. As a percentage of net revenues, selling costs increased to 9.4% for the
year ended December 31, 2011 from 8.9% for the same period in 2010 primarily due to higher
personnel and other costs incurred for the continued expansion of our direct to consumer distribution
channel.

Product innovation and supply chain costs increased $32.3 million to $129.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2011 from $96.8 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to higher distribution
facilities operating and personnel costs to support our growth in net revenues and higher personnel
costs for the design and sourcing of our expanding apparel, footwear and accessories lines. As a
percentage of net revenues, product innovation and supply chain costs decreased to 8.8% for the year
ended December 31, 2011 from 9.1% for the same period in 2010 primarily due to decreased personnel
costs for the design and sourcing of our expanding apparel, footwear and accessories lines as a
percentage of net revenues.

32

• Corporate services costs increased $15.7 million to $114.3 million for the year ended December 31,
2011 from $98.6 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was attributable primarily to
increased corporate personnel, facility costs and information technology initiatives necessary to support
our growth. As a percentage of net revenues, corporate services costs decreased to 7.7% for the year
ended December 31, 2011 from 9.3% for the same period in 2010 primarily due to decreased corporate
personnel and facility costs as a percentage of net revenues, as well as the net impact of the acquisition
of our corporate headquarters in 2011.

Income from operations increased $50.4 million, or 44.9%, to $162.8 million in 2011 from $112.4 million in

2010. Income from operations as a percentage of net revenues increased to 11.1% in 2011 from 10.6% in 2010.
This increase was a result of the items discussed above.

Interest expense, net increased $1.5 million to $3.8 million in 2011 from $2.3 million in 2010. This increase

was primarily due to the debt related to the acquisition of our corporate headquarters.

Other expense, net increased $0.9 million to $2.1 million in 2011 from $1.2 million in 2010. This increase

was due to higher net losses in 2011 on the combined foreign currency exchange rate changes on transactions
denominated in foreign currencies and our derivative foreign currency financial instruments as compared to
2010.

Provision for income taxes increased $19.5 million to $59.9 million in 2011 from $40.4 million in 2010. Our

effective tax rate was 38.2% in 2011 compared to 37.1% in 2010, primarily due to federal and state tax credits
that reduced the effective tax rate in the prior year period, partially offset by the 2011 reversal of a valuation
allowance established in 2010 against a portion of our deferred tax assets related to foreign net operating loss
carryforwards.

costs associated with our continued investment to support our international expansion in our EMEA, Asian and
Latin American operating segments.

Seasonality

Historically, we have recognized a significant portion of our income from operations in the last two quarters

of the year, driven primarily by increased sales volume of our products during the fall selling season, reflecting
our historical strength in fall sports, and the seasonality of our higher priced COLDGEAR® line. The majority of
our net revenues were generated during the last two quarters in each of 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The
level of our working capital generally reflects the seasonality and growth in our business.

Financial Position, Capital Resources and Liquidity

Our cash requirements have principally been for working capital and capital expenditures. We fund our
working capital, primarily inventory, and capital investments from cash flows from operating activities, cash and
cash equivalents on hand and borrowings available under our credit and long term debt facilities. Our working
capital requirements generally reflect the seasonality and growth in our business as we recognize the majority of
our net revenues in the back half of the year. Our capital investments have included expanding our in-store
fixture and branded concept shop program, improvements and expansion of our distribution and corporate
facilities to support our growth, leasehold improvements to our new factory house and specialty stores, and
investment and improvements in information technology systems. Our capital expenditures in 2011 included the
acquisition of our corporate headquarters for $60.5 million. In connection with the acquisition, we assumed a
$38.6 million loan secured by the acquired property. The remaining purchase price was funded through a $25.0
million term loan. In December 2012, we repaid the remaining balance under the assumed loan of $37.7 million
and the term loan of $25.0 million and entered into a new $50.0 million loan secured by the land, buildings and
tenant improvements which comprise our corporate headquarters.

Our inventory strategy is focused on continuing to meet consumer demand while improving our inventory

efficiency over the long term by putting systems and processes in place to improve our inventory
management. These systems and processes are designed to improve our forecasting and supply planning
capabilities. In addition to systems and processes, key areas of focus that we believe will enhance inventory
performance are SKU rationalization, added discipline around the purchasing of product, production lead time
reduction, and better planning and execution in selling of excess inventory through our factory house stores and
other liquidation channels.

We believe our cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash from operations and borrowings available to us
under our credit and long term debt facilities will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs and capital expenditure
requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may require additional capital to meet our longer term
liquidity and future growth needs. Although we believe we have adequate sources of liquidity over the long term,
a prolonged economic recession or a slow recovery could adversely affect our business and liquidity (refer to the
“Risk Factors” section included in Item 1A). In addition, instability in or tightening of the capital markets could
adversely affect our ability to obtain additional capital to grow our business and will affect the cost and terms of
such capital.

Operating Activities

Operating activities consist primarily of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Adjustments to net

income for non-cash items include depreciation and amortization, unrealized foreign currency exchange rate
gains and losses, losses on disposals of property and equipment, stock-based compensation, deferred income
taxes and changes in reserves and allowances. In addition, operating cash flows include the effect of changes in
operating assets and liabilities, principally inventories, accounts receivable, income taxes payable and receivable,
prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Cash provided by operating activities increased $184.6 million to $199.8 million in 2012 from $15.2 million
in 2011. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due to increased net cash flows from operating
assets and liabilities of $155.0 million and an increase in net income of $32.0 million, partially offset by
adjustments to net income for non-cash items which decreased $2.4 million year over year. The increase in net
cash flows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities period over period was primarily driven by the
following:

•

•

a decrease in inventory investments of $119.3 million primarily driven by success around our inventory
management initiatives, along with delays in product receipts due to certain supplier challenges; and

a larger decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $38.6 million in 2012 as compared to 2011,
primarily due to income taxes paid during 2011 related to our tax planning strategies currently being
recognized in income tax expense and timing of payments for our marketing investments.

Adjustments to net income for non-cash items decreased in 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to an

increase in deferred taxes in 2012 as compared to a decrease in deferred taxes in 2011.

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $34.9 million to $15.2 million in 2011 from $50.1 million

in 2010. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due to decreased net cash flows from
operating assets and liabilities of $86.8 million, partially offset by an increase in net income of $28.4 million and
adjustments to net income for non-cash items which increased $23.5 million year over year. The decrease in net
cash flows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities period over period was primarily driven by the
following:

•

•

an increase in inventory investments of $49.4 million due to higher input costs and increased safety
stock in core product offerings and seasonal products; and

a larger increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $38.5 million in 2011 as compared to 2010,
primarily due to income taxes paid during 2011 related to our tax planning strategies currently being
recognized in income tax expense.

36

Adjustments to net income for non-cash items increased in 2011 as compared to 2010 primarily due to a

decrease in deferred taxes in 2011 as compared to an increase in deferred taxes in 2010.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities decreased $42.5 million to $46.9 million in 2012 from $89.4 million in
2011. This decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the acquisition of our corporate
headquarters in 2011. In addition, in connection with the assumed loan for the acquisition of our corporate
headquarters, we were required to set aside $5.0 million in restricted cash. This cash became unrestricted upon
repayment of the assumed loan in December 2012.

Cash used in investing activities increased $47.6 million to $89.4 million in 2011 from $41.8 million in
2010. This increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the acquisition of our corporate
headquarters and increased investments in our direct to consumer sales channel, in-store fixture program and
corporate and distribution facilities. In addition, in connection with the assumed loan for the acquisition of our
corporate headquarters, we were required to set aside $5.0 million in restricted cash. Refer to Note 6 of the
consolidated financial statements for a discussion of restricted cash.

Total capital expenditures were $62.8 million, $115.4 million and $33.1 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010,
respectively, which includes the acquisition of our corporate headquarters and other related expenditures in 2011.
Capital expenditures for 2013 are expected to be in the range of $80 million to $85 million.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities decreased $33.5 million to $12.3 million in 2012 from $45.8 million

in 2011. This decrease was primarily due to the repayment of the loan assumed in connection with the acquisition
of our corporate headquarters in 2011 and the repayment of the term loan under the credit facility, partially offset
by the new $50.0 million loan borrowed in December 2012.

Cash provided by financing activities increased $38.6 million to $45.8 million in 2011 from $7.2 million in

2010. This increase was primarily due to the term loan borrowed under the credit facility to partially fund the
purchase of our corporate headquarters, as well as excess tax benefits and proceeds from stock-based
compensation arrangements.

Credit Facility

In March 2011, we entered into a new $325.0 million credit facility with certain lending institutions and
terminated our prior $200.0 million revolving credit facility in order to increase our available financing and to
expand our lending syndicate. The credit facility has a term of four years and provides for a committed revolving
credit line of up to $300.0 million, in addition to a $25.0 million term loan facility. The commitment amount
under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions
and approvals as set forth in the credit agreement. We incurred and capitalized $1.6 million in deferred financing
costs in connection with the credit facility.

The credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and is collateralized by

substantially all of our assets and certain of our domestic subsidiaries (other than trademarks and the land and
buildings comprising our corporate headquarters) and by a pledge of 65% of the equity interests of certain of our
foreign subsidiaries. Up to $5.0 million of the facility may be used to support letters of credit, of which none
were outstanding as of December 31, 2012. We are required to maintain a certain leverage ratio and interest
coverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement. As of December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with these
ratios. The credit agreement also provides the lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if we
are in compliance with all conditions of the credit agreement, upon a material adverse change to the business,

37

properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations. The credit agreement contains a number of
restrictions that limit our ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional
indebtedness, pledge our assets as security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a
merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change our line of business. In addition, the credit
agreement includes a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, as defined
in the credit agreement, will be considered an event of default under the credit agreement.

Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest based on the daily balance outstanding at LIBOR (with no

rate floor) plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.25% to 1.75%) or, in certain cases a base rate (based on a
certain lending institution’s Prime Rate or as otherwise specified in the credit agreement, with no rate floor) plus
an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.75%). The credit facility also carries a commitment fee equal to
the unused borrowings multiplied by an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.35%). The applicable
margins are calculated quarterly and vary based on our leverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement.

Upon entering into the credit facility in March 2011, we terminated our prior $200.0 million revolving credit

facility. The prior revolving credit facility was collateralized by substantially all of our assets, other than
trademarks, and included covenants, conditions and other terms similar to our new credit facility.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we borrowed $30.0 million under the revolving credit
facility to fund seasonal working capital requirements and repaid it during the three months ended December 31,
2011. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility was 1.5% during the year ended December 31, 2011,
and no balance was outstanding as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. In May 2011, we borrowed
$25.0 million under the term loan facility to finance a portion of the acquisition of our corporate headquarters
and repaid it during the three months ended December 31, 2012. The interest rate on the term loan was 1.6% and
1.5% during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and no balance was outstanding as of
December 31, 2012.

Long Term Debt

We have long term debt agreements with various lenders to finance the acquisition or lease of qualifying
capital investments. Loans under these agreements are collateralized by a first lien on the related assets acquired.
As these agreements are not committed facilities, each advance is subject to approval by the lenders.
Additionally, these agreements include a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt
obligations, including our credit facility, will be considered an event of default under these agreements. These
agreements require a prepayment fee if we pay outstanding amounts ahead of the scheduled terms. The terms of
the credit facility limit the total amount of additional financing under these agreements to $40.0 million, of which
$18.0 million was available for additional financing as of December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 and 2011,
the outstanding principal balance under these agreements was $11.9 million and $14.5 million, respectively.
Currently, advances under these agreements bear interest rates which are fixed at the time of each advance. The
weighted average interest rates on outstanding borrowings were 3.2%, 3.5% and 5.3% for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

We monitor the financial health and stability of its lenders under the revolving credit and long term debt

facilities, however during any period of significant instability in the credit markets lenders could be negatively
impacted in their ability to perform under these facilities.

In July 2011, in connection with the acquisition of our corporate headquarters, we assumed a $38.6 million

nonrecourse loan secured by a mortgage on the acquired property. The assumed loan had an original term of
approximately 10 years with a scheduled maturity date of March 2013. The loan included a balloon payment of
$37.3 million due at maturity. The assumed loan was nonrecourse with the lender’s remedies for non-
performance limited to action against the acquired property and certain required reserves and a cash collateral
account, except for nonrecourse carve outs related to fraud, breaches of certain representations, warranties or

38

covenants, including those related to environmental matters, and other standard carve outs for a loan of this type.
The loan required certain minimum cash flows and financial results from the property, and if those requirements
were not met, additional reserves may have been required. The assumed loan required prior approval of the
lender for certain matters related to the property, including material leases, changes to property management,
transfers of any part of the property and material alterations to the property. The loan had an interest rate of
6.73%. In connection with the assumed loan, we incurred and capitalized $0.8 million in deferred financing
costs. In addition, we were required to set aside amounts in reserve and cash collateral accounts. As of
December 31, 2011, $2.0 million of restricted cash was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets,
and the remaining $3.0 million of restricted cash was included in other long term assets.

In December 2012, we repaid the remaining balance of the assumed nonrecourse loan of $37.7 million and

entered into a new $50.0 million recourse loan collateralized by the land, buildings and tenant improvements
comprising our corporate headquarters. The new loan has a seven year term and maturity date of December 2019.
The loan bears interest at one month LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50%, and allows for prepayment without penalty.
We are required to maintain the same leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio as set forth in our credit facility.
As of December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with these ratios. The loan contains a number of restrictions
that limit our ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional
indebtedness, pledge our assets as a security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a
merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change our line of business. The loan requires prior
approval of the lender for certain matters related to the property, including transfers of any interest in the
property. In addition, the loan includes a cross default provision similar to the cross default provision in the credit
facility discussed above. We incurred and capitalized $1.0 million in deferred financing costs in connection with
the new $50.0 million loan and expensed $0.1 million of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the
assumed loan during the three months ended December 31, 2012.

Acquisitions

In July 2011, we acquired approximately 400.0 thousand square feet of office space comprising our
corporate headquarters for $60.5 million. The acquisition included land, buildings, tenant improvements and
third party lease-related intangible assets. As of December 31, 2012, 141.4 thousand square feet of the 400.0
thousand square feet acquired was leased to third party tenants with remaining lease terms ranging from 1 month
to 13.5 years. We intend to occupy additional space as it becomes available.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

We lease warehouse space, office facilities, space for our factory house and specialty stores and certain

equipment under non-cancelable operating and capital leases. The leases expire at various dates through 2023,
excluding extensions at our option, and contain various provisions for rental adjustments. In addition, this table
includes executed lease agreements for factory house stores that we did not yet occupy as of December 31, 2012.
The operating leases generally contain renewal provisions for varying periods of time. Our significant contractual
obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2012 as well as significant agreements entered into during the
period after December 31, 2012 through the date of this report are summarized in the following table:

Includes the minimum payments for operating lease obligations. The operating lease obligations do not
include any contingent rent expense we may incur at our factory house stores based on future sales above a
specified minimum or payments made for maintenance, insurance and real estate taxes. Contingent rent
expense was $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.

(3) We generally place orders with our manufacturers at least three to four months in advance of expected

(4)

future sales. The amounts listed for product purchase obligations primarily represent our open production
purchase orders with our manufacturers for our apparel, footwear and accessories, including expected
inbound freight, duties and other costs. These open purchase orders specify fixed or minimum quantities of
products at determinable prices. The product purchase obligations also includes fabric commitments with
our suppliers, which secure a portion of our material needs for future seasons. The reported amounts exclude
product purchase liabilities included in accounts payable as of December 31, 2012. When compared to the
product purchase obligation included in our 2011 Form 10-K, product purchase obligations have increased
by 128% primarily due to the timing of product purchases and increased fabric commitments with our
suppliers.
Includes sponsorships with professional teams, professional leagues, colleges and universities, individual
athletes, high schools, youth organizations, athletic events and other marketing commitments in order to
promote our brand. Some of these sponsorship agreements provide for additional performance incentives
and product supply obligations. It is not possible to determine how much we will spend on product supply
obligations on an annual basis as contracts generally do not stipulate specific cash amounts to be spent on
products. The amount of product provided to these sponsorships depends on many factors including general
playing conditions, the number of sporting events in which they participate and our decisions regarding
product and marketing initiatives. In addition, the costs to design, develop, source and purchase the products
furnished to the endorsers are incurred over a period of time and are not necessarily tracked separately from
similar costs incurred for products sold to customers. In addition, it is not possible to determine the amounts
we may be required to pay under these agreements as they are primarily subject to certain performance
based variables. The amounts listed above are the fixed minimum amounts required to be paid under these
agreements.

The table above excludes a liability of $17.1 million for uncertain tax positions, including the related

interest and penalties, recorded in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, as we are unable to
reasonably estimate the timing of settlement. Refer to Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a
further discussion of our uncertain tax positions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In connection with various contracts and agreements, we have agreed to indemnify counterparties against
certain third party claims relating to the infringement of intellectual property rights and other items. Generally,
such indemnification obligations do not apply in situations in which our counterparties are grossly negligent,
engage in willful misconduct, or act in bad faith. Based on our historical experience and the estimated probability
of future loss, we have determined the fair value of such indemnifications is not material to our financial position
or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. To prepare these financial statements, we must make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as
the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could be significantly different from these
estimates. We believe the following discussion addresses the critical accounting policies that are necessary to
understand and evaluate our reported financial results.

40

Revenue Recognition

Net revenues consist of both net sales and license revenues. Net sales are recognized upon transfer of
ownership, including passage of title to the customer and transfer of risk of loss related to those goods. Transfer
of title and risk of loss are based upon shipment under free on board shipping point for most goods or upon
receipt by the customer depending on the country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. In some
instances, transfer of title and risk of loss take place at the point of sale, for example at our retail stores. We may
also ship product directly from our supplier to the customer and recognize revenue when the product is delivered
to and accepted by the customer. License revenues are recognized based upon shipment of licensed products sold
by our licensees. Sales taxes imposed on our revenues from product sales are presented on a net basis on the
consolidated statements of income and therefore do not impact net revenues or costs of goods sold.

We record reductions to revenue for estimated customer returns, allowances, markdowns and discounts. We
base our estimates on historical rates of customer returns and allowances as well as the specific identification of
outstanding returns, markdowns and allowances that have not yet been received by us. The actual amount of
customer returns and allowances, which is inherently uncertain, may differ from our estimates. If we determine
that actual or expected returns or allowances are significantly higher or lower than the reserves we established,
we would record a reduction or increase, as appropriate, to net sales in the period in which we make such a
determination. Provisions for customer specific discounts are based on contractual obligations with certain major
customers. Reserves for returns, allowances, markdowns and discounts are recorded as an offset to accounts
receivable as settlements are made through offsets to outstanding customer invoices. As of December 31, 2012
and 2011, there were $40.7 million and $27.1 million, respectively, in reserves for customer returns, allowances,
markdowns and discounts.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We make ongoing estimates relating to the collectability of accounts receivable and maintain an allowance
for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. In determining the
amount of the reserve, we consider historical levels of credit losses and significant economic developments
within the retail environment that could impact the ability of our customers to pay outstanding balances and
make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations.
Because we cannot predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, actual future losses from
uncollectible accounts may differ from estimates. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate,
resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger reserve might be required. In the event we determine a
smaller or larger reserve is appropriate, we would record a benefit or charge to selling, general and administrative
expense in the period in which such a determination was made. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the
allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

Inventory Valuation and Reserves

We value our inventory at standard cost which approximates landed cost, using the first-in, first-out method

of cost determination. Market value is estimated based upon assumptions made about future demand and retail
market conditions. If we determine that the estimated market value of our inventory is less than the carrying
value of such inventory, we record a charge to cost of goods sold to reflect the lower of cost or market. If actual
market conditions are less favorable than those we projected, further adjustments may be required that would
increase the cost of goods sold in the period in which such a determination was made.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets including Intangible Assets

We continually evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining

estimated useful life of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance may not be
recoverable. These factors may include a significant deterioration of operating results, changes in business plans,

41

or changes in anticipated cash flows. When factors indicate that an asset should be evaluated for possible
impairment, we review long-lived assets to assess recoverability from future operations using undiscounted cash
flows. If future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment is recognized in earnings
to the extent that the carrying value exceeds fair value.

Indefinite lived intangible assets are not amortized and are required to be tested for impairment at least

annually or sooner whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. We
perform intangible asset impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. No material impairments were
recorded related to long-lived assets or indefinite lived intangible assets during the years ended December 31,
2012, 2011 and 2010.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our
assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled.
Deferred income tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances when necessary.

Assessing whether deferred tax assets are realizable requires significant judgment. We consider all available

positive and negative evidence, including historical operating performance and expectations of future operating
performance. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is often dependent upon future taxable income and
therefore can be uncertain. To the extent we believe it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the asset
will not be realized, valuation allowances are established against our deferred tax assets, which increase income
tax expense in the period when such a determination is made.

Income taxes include the largest amount of tax benefit for an uncertain tax position that is more likely than
not to be sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. Settlements with tax authorities,
the expiration of statutes of limitations for particular tax positions, or obtaining new information on particular tax
positions may cause a change to the effective tax rate. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of income.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with accounting guidance that requires all stock-

based compensation awards granted to employees and directors to be measured at fair value and recognized as an
expense in the financial statements. As of December 31, 2012, we had $24.5 million of unrecognized
compensation expense related to time-based awards expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
2.7 years. As of December 31, 2012, we had an additional $4.2 million of unrecognized compensation expense
related to performance-based stock options expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1
years.

Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation

awards require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based
compensation awards, stock price volatility and estimated forfeiture rates. We use the Black-Scholes option-
pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation awards. The assumptions used in
calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation awards represent management’s best estimates, but the
estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. In addition, compensation
expense for performance-based awards is recorded over the related service period when achievement of the
performance target is deemed probable, which requires management judgment. For example, the achievement of
the operating income targets related to the performance-based restricted stock units granted in 2012 and a portion
of the awards granted in 2011 were not deemed probable as of December 31, 2012. Additional stock-based
compensation of up to $16.6 million would have been recorded in 2012 for these performance-based restricted

42

stock units had the full achievement of all operating targets been deemed probable. As a result, if factors change and
we use different assumptions, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.
Refer to Note 2 and Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion on stock-based
compensation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards
Update which requires companies to present either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial
statements, the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other
comprehensive income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification.
This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. We
believe the adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial
statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In July 2012, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update which allows companies to assess
qualitative factors to determine the likelihood of indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment and whether it is
necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test currently required. This guidance is effective for annual
and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption
permitted. The early adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on our consolidated financial
statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Risk

We currently generate a small amount of our consolidated net revenues in Canada and Europe. The
reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements is the U.S. dollar. To date, net revenues generated
outside of the United States have not been significant. However, as our net revenues generated outside of the
United States increase, our results of operations could be adversely impacted by changes in foreign currency
exchange rates. For example, if we recognize foreign revenues in local foreign currencies (as we currently do in
Canada and Europe) and if the U.S. dollar strengthens, it could have a negative impact on our foreign revenues
upon translation of those results into the U.S. dollar upon consolidation of our financial statements. In addition,
we are exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions
generated by our foreign subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies. These gains and losses are
primarily driven by intercompany transactions. These exposures are included in other expense, net on the
consolidated statements of income.

From time to time, we may elect to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk
associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on intercompany transactions and projected
inventory purchases for our European and Canadian subsidiaries. In addition, we may elect to enter into foreign
currency forward contracts to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on
Pound Sterling denominated balance sheet items. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for
speculative or trading purposes.

Based on the foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2012, we receive U.S.
Dollars in exchange for Canadian Dollars at a weighted average contractual forward foreign currency exchange
rate of 0.99 CAD per $1.00, U.S. Dollars in exchange for Euros at a weighted average contractual foreign
currency exchange rate of €0.76 per $1.00 and Euros in exchange for Pounds Sterling at a weighted average
contractual foreign currency exchange rate of £0.81 per €1.00. As of December 31, 2012, the notional value of

43

our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations on our Canadian subsidiary’s intercompany transactions was $1.0 million with contract maturities of
1 month or less. As of December 31, 2012, the notional value of our outstanding foreign currency forward
contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on our European subsidiary’s
intercompany transactions was $25.6 million with contract maturities of 1 month. The foreign currency forward
contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded in
earnings. The fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts were assets of $4.8 thousand as of
December 31, 2012, and were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance
sheet. The fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts were liabilities of $0.7 million as of
December 31, 2011, and were included in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 9
for a discussion of the fair value measurements. Included in other expense, net were the following amounts
related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and derivative foreign currency forward contracts:

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts with major financial institutions with investment grade
credit ratings and are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by these financial institutions.
This credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains in the foreign currency forward contracts. However,
we monitor the credit quality of these financial institutions and consider the risk of counterparty default to be
minimal. Although we have entered into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize some of the impact of
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on future cash flows, we cannot be assured that foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of
operations.

Interest Rate Risk

In order to maintain liquidity and fund business operations, we enter into long term debt arrangements with

various lenders which bear a range of fixed and variable rates of interest. The nature and amount of our long-term
debt can be expected to vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. We
may elect to enter into interest rate swap contracts to reduce the impact associated with interest rate fluctuations.
In December 2012, we began utilizing an interest rate swap contract to convert a portion of variable rate debt
under the new $50.0 million loan to fixed rate debt. The contract pays fixed and receives variable rates of interest
based on one-month LIBOR and has a maturity date of December 2019. The interest rate swap contract is
accounted for as a cash flow hedge and accordingly, the effective portion of the changes in fair value are
recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified into interest expense over the life of the underlying debt
obligation.

As of December 31, 2012, the notional value of our outstanding interest rate swap contract was $25.0
million. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded a $21.1 thousand increase in interest expense,
representing interest incurred on the arrangement. The fair value of the interest rate swap contract was a liability
of $0.1 million as of December 31, 2012, and was included in other long term liabilities on the consolidated
balance sheet.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit risk primarily on our accounts receivable. We provide credit to customers in the
ordinary course of business and perform ongoing credit evaluations. We believe that our exposure to concentrations
of credit risk with respect to trade receivables is largely mitigated by our customer base. We believe that our
allowance for doubtful accounts is sufficient to cover customer credit risks as of December 31, 2012.

44

Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our product and overhead costs may adversely affect our
operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or
results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to
maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial

reporting for the Company. We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). This evaluation included review of the
documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating
effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that
our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, has been audited

by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report
which appears herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Under Armour, Inc.:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1)
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Under Armour, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the
Company) at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index
appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read
in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained,
in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on
criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these
financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the
accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to
express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal
control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting,
assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinions.

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

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

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of the Business

Under Armour, Inc. is a developer, marketer and distributor of branded performance apparel, footwear and
accessories. These products are sold worldwide and worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to professional on
playing fields around the globe, as well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Under Armour, Inc. and its
wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

On June 11, 2012 the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s Class A and

Class B common stock, which was effected in the form of a 100% common stock dividend distributed on July 9,
2012. Stockholders’ equity and all references to share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split for all periods presented.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at

date of inception to be cash and cash equivalents. Included in interest expense, net for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was interest income of $25.2 thousand, $30.0 thousand and $48.7 thousand,
respectively, related to cash and cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily

of accounts receivable. The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable is due from large sporting goods
retailers. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and collateral is not
required. The most significant customers that accounted for a large portion of net revenues and accounts
receivable are as follows:

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company makes ongoing estimates relating to the collectability of accounts receivable and maintains an

allowance for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. In
determining the amount of the reserve, the Company considers historical levels of credit losses and significant

53

economic developments within the retail environment that could impact the ability of its customers to pay
outstanding balances and makes judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing
credit evaluations. Because the Company cannot predict future changes in the financial stability of its customers,
actual future losses from uncollectible accounts may differ from estimates. If the financial condition of customers
were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger reserve might be required. In the event
the Company determines a smaller or larger reserve is appropriate, it would record a benefit or charge to selling,
general and administrative expense in the period in which such a determination was made. As of December 31,
2012 and 2011, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods. Costs of finished goods inventories include all costs incurred to

bring inventory to its current condition, including inbound freight, duties and other costs. The Company values its
inventory at standard cost which approximates landed cost, using the first-in, first-out method of cost determination.
Market value is estimated based upon assumptions made about future demand and retail market conditions. If the
Company determines that the estimated market value of its inventory is less than the carrying value of such
inventory, it records a charge to cost of goods sold to reflect the lower of cost or market. If actual market conditions
are less favorable than those projected by the Company, further adjustments may be required that would increase
the cost of goods sold in the period in which such a determination was made.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the
Company’s assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or
settled. Deferred income tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances when necessary.

Assessing whether deferred tax assets are realizable requires significant judgment. The Company considers

all available positive and negative evidence, including historical operating performance and expectations of
future operating performance. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is often dependent upon future
taxable income and therefore can be uncertain. To the extent the Company believes it is more likely than not that
all or some portion of the asset will not be realized, valuation allowances are established against the Company’s
deferred tax assets, which increase income tax expense in the period when such a determination is made.

Income taxes include the largest amount of tax benefit for an uncertain tax position that is more likely than
not to be sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. Settlements with tax authorities,
the expiration of statutes of limitations for particular tax positions, or obtaining new information on particular tax
positions may cause a change to the effective tax rate. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties
related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of income.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, including the cost of internal labor for software customized for
internal use, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Property and equipment is depreciated using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets: 3 to 10 years for furniture, office equipment and
software and plant equipment and 10 to 35 years for site improvements, buildings and building equipment.
Leasehold and tenant improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives
of the assets. The cost of in-store apparel and footwear fixtures and displays are capitalized, included in furniture,
fixtures and displays, and depreciated over 3 years. The Company periodically reviews assets’ estimated useful
lives based upon actual experience and expected future utilization. A change in useful life is treated as a change
in accounting estimate and is applied prospectively.

54

The Company capitalizes the cost of interest for long term property and equipment projects based on the
Company’s weighted average borrowing rates in place while the projects are in progress. Capitalized interest was
$0.5 million and $0.7 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Upon retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are
removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in selling, general and administrative
expenses for that period. Major additions and betterments are capitalized to the asset accounts while maintenance
and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of assets, are expensed as incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets including Intangible Assets

The Company continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the
remaining estimated useful life of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance may not
be recoverable. These factors may include a significant deterioration of operating results, changes in business
plans, or changes in anticipated cash flows. When factors indicate that an asset should be evaluated for possible
impairment, the Company reviews long-lived assets to assess recoverability from future operations using
undiscounted cash flows. If future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment is
recognized in earnings to the extent that the carrying value exceeds fair value.

Indefinite lived intangible assets are not amortized and are required to be tested for impairment at least
annually or sooner whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. The
Company performs its intangible asset impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. No material
impairments were recorded related to long-lived assets or indefinite lived intangible assets during the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

Accrued Expenses

At December 31, 2012, accrued expenses primarily included $37.9 million and $13.6 million of accrued

compensation and benefits and marketing expenses, respectively. At December 31, 2011, accrued expenses
primarily included $31.4 million and $14.2 million of accrued compensation and benefits and marketing
expenses, respectively.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The functional currency for each of the Company’s wholly owned foreign subsidiaries is generally the
applicable local currency. The translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars is performed for assets and
liabilities using current foreign currency exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and
expense accounts using average foreign currency exchange rates during the period. Capital accounts are translated at
historical foreign currency exchange rates. Translation gains and losses are included in stockholders’ equity as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Adjustments that arise from foreign currency exchange
rate changes on transactions, primarily driven by intercompany transactions, denominated in a currency other than
the functional currency are included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of income.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

The Company uses derivative financial instruments in the form of foreign currency forward and interest rate
swap contracts to minimize the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations.
The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments pursuant to applicable accounting guidance. This
guidance establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative financial instruments and requires all
derivatives to be recognized as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and to be measured at fair value.
Unrealized derivative gain positions are recorded as other current assets or other long term assets, and unrealized
derivative loss positions are recorded as accrued expenses or other long term liabilities, depending on the
derivative financial instrument’s maturity date.

55

Currently, the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and

accordingly, changes in their fair value are included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of
income. The Company has designated its interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge and accordingly, the
effective portion of changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified into
interest expense over the life of the underlying debt obligation. The Company does not enter into derivative
financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue pursuant to applicable accounting standards. Net revenues consist of both
net sales and license revenues. Net sales are recognized upon transfer of ownership, including passage of title to
the customer and transfer of risk of loss related to those goods. Transfer of title and risk of loss is based upon
shipment under free on board shipping point for most goods or upon receipt by the customer depending on the
country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. In some instances, transfer of title and risk of loss takes
place at the point of sale, for example, at the Company’s retail stores. The Company may also ship product
directly from its supplier to the customer and recognize revenue when the product is delivered to and accepted by
the customer. License revenues are recognized based upon shipment of licensed products sold by the Company’s
licensees. Sales taxes imposed on the Company’s revenues from product sales are presented on a net basis on the
consolidated statements of income and therefore do not impact net revenues or costs of goods sold.

The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated customer returns, allowances, markdowns and

discounts. The Company bases its estimates on historical rates of customer returns and allowances as well as the
specific identification of outstanding returns, markdowns and allowances that have not yet been received by the
Company. The actual amount of customer returns and allowances, which is inherently uncertain, may differ from
the Company’s estimates. If the Company determines that actual or expected returns or allowances are
significantly higher or lower than the reserves it established, it would record a reduction or increase, as
appropriate, to net sales in the period in which it makes such a determination. Provisions for customer specific
discounts are based on contractual obligations with certain major customers. Reserves for returns, allowances,
markdowns and discounts are recorded as an offset to accounts receivable as settlements are made through
offsets to outstanding customer invoices. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were $40.7 million and $27.1
million, respectively, in reserves for customer returns, allowances, markdowns and discounts.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses. Advertising production costs
are expensed the first time an advertisement related to such production costs is run. Media (television, print and
radio) placement costs are expensed in the month during which the advertisement appears, and costs related to
event sponsorships are expensed when the event occurs. In addition, advertising costs include sponsorship
expenses. Accounting for sponsorship payments is based upon specific contract provisions and the payments are
generally expensed uniformly over the term of the contract after recording expense related to specific
performance incentives once they are deemed probable. Advertising expense, including amortization of in-store
marketing fixtures and displays, was $205.4 million, $167.9 million and $128.2 million for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, prepaid advertising costs
were $17.5 million and $10.4 million, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company charges certain customers shipping and handling fees. These fees are recorded in net

revenues. The Company includes the majority of outbound handling costs as a component of selling, general and
administrative expenses. Outbound handling costs include costs associated with preparing goods to ship to
customers and certain costs to operate the Company’s distribution facilities. These costs, included within selling,

56

general and administrative expenses, were $34.8 million, $26.1 million and $14.7 million for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company includes outbound freight costs associated with
shipping goods to customers as a component of cost of goods sold.

Minority Investment

Beginning in January 2011, the Company has held a minority equity investment in Dome Corporation
(“Dome”), the Company’s Japanese licensee. The Company invested ¥1,140.0 million, or $15.5 million, in
exchange for 19.5% common stock ownership in Dome. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying value
of the Company’s investment was $14.6 million and $14.4 million, respectively, and was included in other long
term assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The investment is subject to foreign currency translation rate
fluctuations as it is held by the Company’s European subsidiary.

The Company accounts for its investment in Dome under the cost method given that it does not have the

ability to exercise significant influence. Additionally, the Company concluded that no event or change in
circumstances occurred during the year ended December 31, 2012 that may have a significant adverse effect on
the fair value of the investment.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for

the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Any stock-based
compensation awards that are determined to be participating securities, which are stock-based compensation
awards that entitle the holders to receive dividends prior to vesting, are included in the calculation of basic
earnings per share using the two class method. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net
income available to common stockholders for the period by the diluted weighted average common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from common shares
issuable through stock options, warrants, restricted stock units and other equity awards. Refer to Note 12 for
further discussion of earnings per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with accounting guidance that requires

all stock-based compensation awards granted to employees and directors to be measured at fair value and
recognized as an expense in the financial statements. In addition, this guidance requires that excess tax benefits
related to stock-based compensation awards be reflected as financing cash flows.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair market value of stock-based

compensation awards. The Company uses the “simplified method” to estimate the expected life of options, as
permitted by accounting guidance. The “simplified method” calculates the expected life of a stock option equal
to the time from grant to the midpoint between the vesting date and contractual term, taking into account all
vesting tranches. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield for the U.S. Treasury bill with a maturity equal
to the expected life of the stock option. Expected volatility is based on an average for a peer group of companies
similar in terms of type of business, industry, stage of life cycle and size. Compensation expense is recognized
net of forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the total vesting period, which is the implied requisite service
period. Compensation expense for performance-based awards is recorded over the implied requisite service
period when achievement of the performance target is deemed probable. The forfeiture rate is estimated at the
date of grant based on historical rates.

In addition, the Company recognized expense for stock-based compensation awards granted prior to the
Company’s initial filing of its S-1 Registration Statement in accordance with accounting guidance that allows the
intrinsic value method. Under the intrinsic value method, stock-based compensation expense of fixed stock
options is based on the difference, if any, between the fair value of the company’s stock on the grant date and the

57

exercise price of the option. The stock-based compensation expense for these awards was fully amortized in
2010. Had the Company elected to account for all stock-based compensation awards at fair value, the impact to
net income and earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2010 would not have been material to its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The Company issues new shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of stock options, grant of

restricted stock or share unit conversion. Refer to Note 12 for further details on stock-based compensation.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the

United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts shown for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and
accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short term maturity of those instruments. The fair value
of the long term debt approximates its carrying value based on the variable nature of interest rates and current
market rates available to the Company. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is based on the net
difference between the U.S. dollars to be received or paid at the contracts’ settlement date and the U.S. dollar
value of the foreign currency to be sold or purchased at the current forward exchange rate. The fair value of the
interest rate swap contract is based on the net difference between the fixed interest to be paid and variable
interest to be received over the term of the contract based on current market rates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards

Update which requires companies to present either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial
statements, the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive
income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. This guidance is
effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company believes the
adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In July 2012, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update which allows companies to assess
qualitative factors to determine the likelihood of indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment and whether it is
necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test currently required. This guidance is effective for annual
and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption
permitted. The early adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.

3. Acquisitions

In July 2011, the Company acquired approximately 400.0 thousand square feet of office space comprising
its corporate headquarters for $60.5 million. The acquisition included land, buildings, tenant improvements and
third party lease-related intangible assets. As of December 31, 2012, 141.4 thousand square feet of the
400.0 thousand square feet acquired was leased to third party tenants with remaining lease terms ranging from 1
month to 13.5 years. The Company intends to occupy additional space as it becomes available.

58

The acquisition included the assumption of a $38.6 million loan secured by the property and the remaining

purchase price was paid in cash funded primarily by a $25.0 million term loan borrowed in May 2011. The
carrying value of the assumed loan approximated its fair value on the date of the acquisition. Refer to Note 6 for
a discussion of the assumed loan and term loan. A $1.0 million deposit was paid upon signing the purchase
agreement in November 2010.

The aggregate fair value of the acquisition was $63.8 million. The fair value was estimated using a

combination of market, income and cost approaches. The acquisition was accounted for as a business
combination, and as such the Company recognized a bargain purchase gain in the year ended December 31, 2011
of $3.3 million, as the amount by which the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the fair value of the
purchase price.

In connection with this acquisition, the Company incurred acquisition related expenses of approximately
$1.9 million. Both the acquisition related expenses and pre-tax bargain purchase gain were included in selling,
general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income during the year ended
December 31, 2011. This transaction did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated statements of
income during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Intangible assets, excluding lease-related intangible assets, are amortized using estimated useful lives of 55
months to 89 months with no residual value. Lease-related intangible assets were acquired with the purchase of
the Company’s corporate headquarters and are amortized over the remaining third party lease terms, which
ranged from 9 months to 15 years on the date of purchase. Amortization expense, which is included in selling,
general and administrative expenses, was $2.2 million, $2.9 million and $2.0 million for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The estimated amortization expense of the Company’s
intangible assets is $0.9 million and $0.4 million for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2014, respectively,
and $0.3 million for each of the years ending December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017.

6. Credit Facility and Long Term Debt

Credit Facility

In March 2011, the Company entered into a new $325.0 million credit facility with certain lending
institutions and terminated its prior $200.0 million revolving credit facility in order to increase the Company’s
available financing and to expand its lending syndicate. The credit facility has a term of four years and provides
for a committed revolving credit line of up to $300.0 million, in addition to a $25.0 million term loan facility.
The commitment amount under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $50.0 million,
subject to certain conditions and approvals as set forth in the credit agreement. The Company incurred and
capitalized $1.6 million in deferred financing costs in connection with the credit facility.

The credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and is collateralized by
substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (other than trademarks and
the land and buildings comprising the Company’s corporate headquarters) and by a pledge of 65% of the equity
interests of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Up to $5.0 million of the facility may be used to
support letters of credit, of which none were outstanding as of December 31, 2012. The Company is required to
maintain a certain leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement. As of
December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with these ratios. The credit agreement also provides the
lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if the Company is in compliance with all conditions of
the credit agreement, upon a material adverse change to the business, properties, assets, financial condition or
results of operations of the Company. The credit agreement contains a number of restrictions that limit the
Company’s ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional
indebtedness, pledge its assets as security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a
merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change its line of business. In addition, the credit
agreement includes a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, as defined
in the credit agreement, will be considered an event of default under the credit agreement.

Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest based on the daily balance outstanding at LIBOR (with no

rate floor) plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.25% to 1.75%) or, in certain cases a base rate (based on a

60

certain lending institution’s Prime Rate or as otherwise specified in the credit agreement, with no rate floor) plus an
applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.75%). The credit facility also carries a commitment fee equal to the
unused borrowings multiplied by an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.35%). The applicable margins are
calculated quarterly and vary based on the Company’s leverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement.

Upon entering into the credit facility in March 2011, the Company terminated its prior $200.0 million

revolving credit facility. The prior revolving credit facility was collateralized by substantially all of the
Company’s assets, other than trademarks, and included covenants, conditions and other terms similar to the
Company’s new credit facility.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company borrowed $30.0 million under the

revolving credit facility to fund seasonal working capital requirements and repaid it during the three months
ended December 31, 2011. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility was 1.5% during the year ended
December 31, 2011, and no balance was outstanding as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. In May
2011, the Company borrowed $25.0 million under the term loan facility to finance a portion of the acquisition of
the Company’s corporate headquarters and repaid it during the three months ended December 31, 2012. The
interest rate on the term loan was 1.6% and 1.5% during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011,
respectively, and no balance was outstanding as of December 31, 2012.

Long Term Debt

The Company has long term debt agreements with various lenders to finance the acquisition or lease of
qualifying capital investments. Loans under these agreements are collateralized by a first lien on the related
assets acquired. As these agreements are not committed facilities, each advance is subject to approval by the
lenders. Additionally, these agreements include a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other
debt obligations, including the Company’s credit facility, will be considered an event of default under these
agreements. These agreements require a prepayment fee if the Company pays outstanding amounts ahead of the
scheduled terms. The terms of the credit facility limit the total amount of additional financing under these
agreements to $40.0 million, of which $18.0 million was available for additional financing as of December 31,
2012. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the outstanding principal balance under these agreements was $11.9
million and $14.5 million, respectively. Currently, advances under these agreements bear interest rates which are
fixed at the time of each advance. The weighted average interest rates on outstanding borrowings were 3.2%,
3.5% and 5.3% for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company monitors the financial health and stability of its lenders under the revolving credit and long
term debt facilities, however during any period of significant instability in the credit markets lenders could be
negatively impacted in their ability to perform under these facilities.

In July 2011, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of its corporate headquarters, the Company
assumed a $38.6 million nonrecourse loan secured by a mortgage on the acquired property. The assumed loan
had an original term of approximately 10 years with a scheduled maturity date of March 2013. The loan includes

61

a balloon payment of $37.3 million due at maturity. The assumed loan is nonrecourse with the lender’s remedies
for non-performance limited to action against the acquired property and certain required reserves and a cash
collateral account, except for nonrecourse carve outs related to fraud, breaches of certain representations,
warranties or covenants, including those related to environmental matters, and other standard carve outs for a
loan of this type. The loan requires certain minimum cash flows and financial results from the property, and if
those requirements are not met, additional reserves may be required. The assumed loan requires prior approval of
the lender for certain matters related to the property, including material leases, changes to property management,
transfers of any part of the property and material alterations to the property. The loan has an interest rate of
6.73%. In connection with the assumed loan, the Company incurred and capitalized $0.8 million in deferred
financing costs. In addition, the Company was required to set aside amounts in reserve and cash collateral
accounts. As of December 31, 2011, $2.0 million of restricted cash was included in prepaid expenses and other
current assets, and the remaining $3.0 million of restricted cash was included in other long term assets.

In December 2012, the Company repaid the remaining balance of the assumed loan of $37.7 million and

entered into a new $50.0 million loan collateralized by the land, buildings and tenant improvements comprising
the Company’s corporate headquarters. The new loan has a 7 year term and maturity date of December 2019. The
loan bears interest at one month LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50%, and allows for prepayment without penalty. The
Company is required to maintain the same leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio as set forth in the credit
facility. As of December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with these ratios. The loan contains a
number of restrictions that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited
exceptions, incur additional indebtedness, pledge its assets as a security, guaranty obligations of third parties,
make investments, undergo a merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change its line of business.
The loan requires prior approval of the lender for certain matters related to the property, including transfers of
any interest in the property. In addition, the loan includes a cross default provision similar to the cross default
provision in the credit facility discussed above. The Company incurred and capitalized $1.0 million in deferred
financing costs in connection with the new $50.0 million loan and expensed $0.1 million of unamortized deferred
financing costs related to the assumed loan during the three months ended December 31, 2012.

Interest expense was $5.2 million, $3.9 million and $2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2012,

2011 and 2010, respectively. Interest expense includes the amortization of deferred financing costs and interest
expense under the credit and long term debt facilities, as well as the assumed loan discussed above.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Obligations Under Operating Leases

The Company leases warehouse space, office facilities, space for its retail stores and certain equipment
under non-cancelable operating leases. The leases expire at various dates through 2023, excluding extensions at
the Company’s option, and include provisions for rental adjustments. The table below includes executed lease
agreements for factory house stores that the Company did not yet occupy as of December 31, 2012 and does not
include contingent rent the company may incur at its retail stores based on future sales above a specified limit.
The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments for non-cancelable real property operating leases
as of December 31, 2012 as well as significant operating lease agreements entered into during the period after
December 31, 2012 through the date of this report:

$21.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, under non-cancelable
operating lease agreements. Included in these amounts was contingent rent expense of $6.2 million, $3.6 million
and $2.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The operating lease
obligations included above do not include any contingent rent.

Sponsorships and Other Marketing Commitments

Within the normal course of business, the Company enters into contractual commitments in order to promote

the Company’s brand and products. These commitments include sponsorship agreements with teams and athletes on
the collegiate and professional levels, official supplier agreements, athletic event sponsorships and other marketing
commitments. The following is a schedule of the Company’s future minimum payments under its sponsorship and
other marketing agreements as of December 31, 2012, as well as significant sponsorship and other marketing
agreements entered into during the period after December 31, 2012 through the date of this report:

The amounts listed above are the minimum obligations required to be paid under the Company’s

sponsorship and other marketing agreements. The amounts listed above do not include additional performance
incentives and product supply obligations provided under certain agreements. It is not possible to determine how
much the Company will spend on product supply obligations on an annual basis as contracts generally do not
stipulate specific cash amounts to be spent on products. The amount of product provided to the sponsorships
depends on many factors including general playing conditions, the number of sporting events in which they
participate and the Company’s decisions regarding product and marketing initiatives. In addition, the costs to
design, develop, source and purchase the products furnished to the endorsers are incurred over a period of time
and are not necessarily tracked separately from similar costs incurred for products sold to customers.

Other

The Company is, from time to time, involved in routine legal matters incidental to its business. The
Company believes that the ultimate resolution of any such current proceedings and claims will not have a
material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In connection with various contracts and agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify counterparties

against certain third party claims relating to the infringement of intellectual property rights and other items.
Generally, such indemnification obligations do not apply in situations in which the counterparties are grossly
negligent, engage in willful misconduct, or act in bad faith. Based on the Company’s historical experience and
the estimated probability of future loss, the Company has determined that the fair value of such indemnifications
is not material to its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

8. Stockholders’ Equity

The Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Convertible Common Stock have an authorized

number of shares of 200.0 million shares and 21.3 million shares, respectively, and each have a par value of
$0.0003 1/3 per share. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Convertible Common Stock have

63

identical rights, including liquidation preferences, except that the holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled
to one vote per share and holders of Class B Convertible Common Stock are entitled to 10 votes per share on all
matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Class B Convertible Common Stock may only be held by Kevin Plank,
the Company’s founder and Chief Executive Officer, or a related party of Mr. Plank, as defined in the
Company’s charter. As a result, Mr. Plank has a majority voting control over the Company. Upon the transfer of
shares of Class B Convertible Stock to a person other than Mr. Plank or a related party of Mr. Plank, the shares
automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. In addition, all of the
outstanding shares of Class B Convertible Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A
Common Stock on a one-for-one basis upon the death or disability of Mr. Plank or on the record date for any
stockholders’ meeting upon which the shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Convertible Common Stock
beneficially owned by Mr. Plank is less than 15% of the total shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B
Convertible Common Stock outstanding. Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to receive
dividends when and if authorized and declared out of assets legally available for the payment of dividends.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, 1.2 million shares of Class B Convertible Common Stock were

converted into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis in connection with stock sales.

9. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an

orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The fair value
accounting guidance outlines a valuation framework, creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the
consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures, and prioritizes the inputs
used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2:

Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to

develop its own assumptions.

Financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value are set forth in the table below:

Fair values of the financial assets and liabilities listed above are determined using inputs that use as their basis
readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party
pricing services and brokers. The foreign currency forward contracts represent gains and losses on derivative contracts,
which is the net difference between the U.S. dollar value to be received or paid at the contracts’ settlement date and the
U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency to be sold or purchased at the current forward exchange rate. The interest rate
swap contract represents gains and losses on the derivative contract, which is the net difference between the fixed
interest to be paid and variable interest to be received over the term of the contract based on current market rates. The
fair value of the trust owned life insurance (“TOLI”) policies held by the Rabbi Trust is based on the cash-surrender
value of the life insurance policies, which are invested primarily in mutual funds and a separately managed fixed
income fund. These investments are in the same funds and purchased in substantially the same amounts as the selected
investments of participants in the Under Armour, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation
Plan”), which represent the underlying liabilities to participants in the Deferred Compensation Plan. Liabilities under
the Deferred Compensation Plan are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of participants’
selected investments.

64

The carrying value of the Company’s long term debt approximated its fair value as of December 31, 2012
and 2011. The fair value of the Company’s long term debt was estimated based upon quoted prices for similar
instruments (Level 2 input).

The decrease in the 2012 full year effective income tax rate, as compared to 2011, is primarily attributable

to state tax credits reducing the effective tax rate for the period.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $12.4 million in deferred tax assets associated with foreign net
operating loss carryforwards which will begin to expire in 3 to 9 years. As of December 31, 2012, the Company
believes certain deferred tax assets associated with foreign net operating loss carryforwards will expire unused
based on the Company’s forward-looking financial information for 2012. Therefore, a valuation allowance of
$1.8 million was recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2012.

During 2012, the Company recorded $0.4 million in deferred tax assets associated with foreign tax credits.

As of December 31, 2012 the Company believes that the foreign taxes paid would not be creditable against its
future income taxes and therefore, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets.
The recording of the valuation allowance associated with foreign tax credits resulted in an increase to income tax
expense of $1.0 million which was partially offset by $0.6 million reversal of valuation allowance related to
portion of the 2011 foreign tax credits accrued that were not realized.

As of December 31, 2012, approximately $57.2 million of cash and cash equivalents was held by the

Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries whose cumulative undistributed earnings total $100.8 million. Withholding and
U.S. taxes have not been provided on the undistributed earnings as the Company takes the position that the
earnings are permanently reinvested in its non-U.S. subsidiaries. Determining the tax liability that would arise if
these earnings were repatriated is not practical.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the total liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including related

interest and penalties, was approximately $17.1 million and $11.2 million, respectively. The following table
represents a reconciliation of the Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits balances, excluding interest and
penalties, for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010:

As of December 31, 2012, $14.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties,

would impact the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized.

As of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits included $1.8 million,
$1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, for the accrual of interest and penalties. For each of the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded $0.7 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million,
respectively, for the accrual of interest and penalties in its consolidated statements of income.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign

jurisdictions. The majority of the Company’s returns for years before 2009 are no longer subject to U.S. federal,
state and local or foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities. The Company does not expect any material
changes to the total unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

options, restricted stock units and warrants representing 0.1 million, 0.1 million and 1.7 million shares of
common stock were outstanding for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively,
but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

12. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Compensation Plans

The Under Armour, Inc. Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2005
Plan”) provides for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity awards
to officers, directors, key employees and other persons. Stock options and restricted stock and restricted stock
unit awards under the 2005 Plan generally vest ratably over a three to four year period. The exercise period for
stock options is generally ten years from the date of grant. The Company generally receives a tax deduction for
any ordinary income recognized by a participant in respect to an award under the 2005 Plan. The 2005 Plan
terminates in 2015. As of December 31, 2012, 10.2 million shares are available for future grants of awards under
the 2005 Plan.

Total stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $19.8

million, $18.1 million and $16.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $24.5
million of unrecognized compensation expense expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.7
years. This does not include any expense related to performance-based stock options or performance-based
restricted stock units. Refer to “Stock Options” and “Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units” below for
further information on these awards.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) allows for the purchase of Class A Common
Stock by all eligible employees at a 15% discount from fair market value subject to certain limits as defined in
the ESPP. As of December 31, 2012, 1.5 million shares are available for future purchases under the ESPP.
During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, 56.9 thousand, 59.9 thousand and 79.2 thousand
shares were purchased under the ESPP, respectively.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan and Deferred Stock Unit Plan

The Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan (the “Director Compensation Plan”) provides
for cash compensation and equity awards to non-employee directors of the Company under the 2005 Plan. Non-
employee directors have the option to defer the value of their annual cash retainers as deferred stock units in
accordance with the Under Armour, Inc. Non-Employee Deferred Stock Unit Plan (the “DSU Plan”). Each new
non-employee director receives an award of restricted stock units upon the initial election to the Board of
Directors, with the units covering stock valued at $0.1 million on the grant date and vesting in three equal annual
installments. In addition, each non-employee director receives, following each annual stockholders’ meeting, a
grant under the 2005 Plan of restricted stock units covering stock valued at $75.0 thousand on the grant date.
Each award vests 100% on the date of the next annual stockholders’ meeting following the grant date.

The receipt of the shares otherwise deliverable upon vesting of the restricted stock units automatically
defers into deferred stock units under the DSU Plan. Under the DSU Plan each deferred stock unit represents the
Company’s obligation to issue one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock with the shares delivered six
months following the termination of the director’s service.

Stock Options

There were no stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2012. The weighted average fair

value of a stock option granted for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $19.28 and $8.36,
respectively. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

Risk-free interest rate
Average expected life in years
Expected volatility
Expected dividend yield

Included in the tables above are 2.3 million and 2.5 million performance-based stock options granted to
officers and key employees under the 2005 Plan during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. These
performance-based stock options have a weighted average exercise price of $10.38, and a term of ten years.
These performance-based options have vestings that are tied to the achievement of certain combined annual
operating income targets. Upon the achievement of each of the combined operating income targets, 50% of the
options vest and the remaining 50% vest one year later. If certain lower levels of combined operating income are
achieved, fewer or no options vest at that time and one year later, and the remaining stock options are forfeited.

69

As of December 31, 2012, the combined operating income targets related to all performance-based stock options
were met. For performance-based stock options granted in 2009, 50% of the options vested on February 15,
2011, and the remaining 50% vested on February 15, 2012. For the stock options granted in 2010, 50% of the
options will vest on February 15, 2013 and the remaining 50% will vest on February 15, 2014, subject to
continued employment.

The weighted average fair value of these performance-based stock options is $5.83, and was estimated using

the Black-Scholes option-pricing model consistent with the weighted average assumptions included in the table
above. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $3.9 million and $7.5
million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense for these performance-based stock options. As of
December 31, 2012, the Company had $4.2 million of unrecognized compensation expense expected to be
recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1 years.

Included in the table above are 1.0 million and 0.8 million performance-based restricted stock units awarded

to certain executives and key employees under the 2005 Plan during the years ended December 31, 2012 and
2011, respectively. These performance-based restricted stock units have a weighted average fair value of $39.73
and have vesting that is tied to the achievement of certain combined annual operating income targets. Upon the
achievement of the combined operating income targets, 50% of the restricted stock units will vest and the
remaining 50% will vest one year later. If certain lower levels of combined operating income are achieved, fewer
or no restricted stock units will vest at that time and one year later, and the remaining restricted stock units will
be forfeited.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company deemed the achievement of certain operating
income targets probable for the awards granted in 2011, and recorded $4.1 million for a portion of these awards,
including a cumulative adjustment of $2.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012. As of
December 31, 2012, the Company had not begun recording stock-based compensation expense for the awards
granted in 2012 as the Company determined the achievement of the combined operating income targets was not
probable. The Company will assess the probability of the achievement of the operating income targets at the end
of each reporting period. If it becomes probable that the performance targets related to these performance-based
restricted stock units will be achieved, a cumulative adjustment will be recorded as if ratable stock-based
compensation expense had been recorded since the grant date. Additional stock based compensation of up to
$16.6 million would have been recorded through December 31, 2012 for all performance-based restricted stock
units had the full achievement of these operating income targets been deemed probable.

70

Warrants

In 2006, the Company issued fully vested and non-forfeitable warrants to purchase 960.0 thousand shares of

the Company’s Class A Common Stock to NFL Properties as partial consideration for footwear promotional
rights which were recorded as an intangible asset. Refer to Note 5 for further information on this intangible asset.
With the assistance of an independent third party valuation firm, the Company assessed the fair value of the
warrants using various fair value models. Using these measures, the Company concluded that the fair value of the
warrants was $8.5 million. The warrants have a term of 12 years from the date of issuance and an exercise price
of $18.50 per share, which is the adjusted closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the date of
issuance. As of December 31, 2012, all outstanding warrants were exercisable, and no warrants were exercised.

13. Other Employee Benefits

The Company offers a 401(k) Deferred Compensation Plan for the benefit of eligible employees. Employee
contributions are voluntary and subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. The Company matches a portion
of the participant’s contribution and recorded expense of $2.3 million, $1.8 million and $1.2 million for the years
ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock are
not an investment option in this plan.

In addition, the Company offers the Under Armour, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan which allows a select
group of management or highly compensated employees, as approved by the Compensation Committee, to make
an annual base salary and/or bonus deferral for each year. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Deferred
Compensation Plan obligations were $2.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively, and were included in other long
term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company established the Rabbi Trust to fund obligations to participants in the Deferred Compensation
Plan. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the assets held in the Rabbi Trust were TOLI policies with cash-surrender
values of $4.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively. These assets are consolidated as allowed by accounting
guidance, and are included in other long term assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 9 for a
discussion of the fair value measurements of the assets held in the Rabbi Trust and the Deferred Compensation Plan
obligations.

14. Risk Management and Derivatives

Foreign Currency Risk Management

The Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates
relating to transactions generated by its international subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies.
These gains and losses are primarily driven by intercompany transactions. From time to time, the Company may
elect to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations on intercompany transactions and projected inventory purchases for its European and
Canadian subsidiaries. In addition, the Company may elect to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to
reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Pound Sterling denominated
balance sheet items.

As of December 31, 2012, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward

contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its Canadian subsidiary’s
intercompany transactions was $1.0 million with contract maturities of 1 month or less. As of December 31,
2012, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its European subsidiary’s intercompany transactions was $25.6
million with contract maturities of 1 month. As of December 31, 2012, the notional value of the Company’s
outstanding foreign currency forward contract used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on

71

Pounds Sterling denominated balance sheet items was €11.9 million, or $15.8 million, with a contract maturity of
1 month. The foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly,
changes in their fair value are recorded in earnings. The fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward
contracts were assets of $4.8 thousand as of December 31, 2012, and were included in prepaid expenses and
other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of the Company’s foreign currency
forward contracts were liabilities of $0.7 million as of December 31, 2011, and were included in accrued
expenses on the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 9 for a discussion of the fair value measurements.
Included in other expense, net were the following amounts related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates
and derivative foreign currency forward contracts:

Interest Rate Risk Management

In order to maintain liquidity and fund business operations, the Company enters into long term debt
arrangements with various lenders which bear a range of fixed and variable rates of interest. The nature and
amount of the Company’s long-term debt can be expected to vary as a result of future business requirements,
market conditions and other factors. The Company may elect to enter into interest rate swap contracts to reduce
the impact associated with interest rate fluctuations. In December 2012, the Company began utilizing an interest
rate swap contract to convert a portion of variable rate debt under the new $50.0 million loan to fixed rate debt.
The contract pays fixed and receives variable rates of interest based on one-month LIBOR and has a maturity
date of December 2019. The interest rate swap contract is accounted for as a cash flow hedge and accordingly,
the effective portion of the changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified
into interest expense over the life of the underlying debt obligation.

As of December 31, 2012, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap contract was

$25.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a $21.1 thousand increase in
interest expense, representing interest incurred on the arrangement. The fair value of the interest rate swap
contract was a liability of $0.1 million as of December 31, 2012, and was included in other long term liabilities
on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company enters into derivative contracts with major financial institutions with investment grade credit
ratings and is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by these financial institutions. This credit
risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains in the contracts. However, the Company monitors the credit
quality of these financial institutions and considers the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

15. Related Party Transactions

The Company has an agreement to license a software system with a vendor whose Co-CEO is a director of
the Company. During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company paid $1.9 million, $1.8
million and $1.5 million, respectively, in licensing fees and related support services to this vendor. In September
2012, the Company entered into an additional software license agreement with this vendor for $3.5 million,
through a financing arrangement with an unrelated party. The amount was outstanding as of December 31, 2012,
and was included in current maturities of long term debt on the consolidated balance sheet. There were no
amounts payable to this related party as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.

The Company has operating lease agreements with entities controlled by the Company’s CEO to lease
aircrafts for business purposes. The Company paid $0.8 million, $0.7 million and $1.0 million in lease payments

72

to the entities for its use of the aircrafts during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
No amounts were payable to this related party as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company determined the
lease payments charged are at or below fair market lease rates.

16. Segment Data and Related Information

The Company’s operating segments are based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”)
makes decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. As such, the CODM receives discrete
financial information by geographic region based on the Company’s strategy to become a global brand. These
geographic regions include North America; Latin America; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and
Asia. The Company’s operating segments are based on these geographic regions. Each geographic segment
operates exclusively in one industry: the development, marketing and distribution of branded performance
apparel, footwear and accessories. Due to the insignificance of the EMEA, Latin America and Asia operating
segments, they have been combined into other foreign countries for disclosure purposes.

The geographic distribution of the Company’s net revenues, operating income and total assets are

summarized in the following tables based on the location of its customers and operations. Net revenues represent
sales to external customers for each segment. In addition to net revenues, operating income is a primary financial
measure used by the Company to evaluate performance of each segment. Intercompany balances were eliminated
for separate disclosure and corporate expenses from North America have not been allocated to other foreign
countries.

In February 2013, 0.3 million shares of Class B Convertible Common Stock were converted into shares of

Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis in connection with a stock sale.

Stock-Based Compensation

In February 2013, 0.6 million performance-based restricted stock units were awarded to certain officers and
key employees under the 2005 Plan. The performance-based restricted stock units have vesting that is tied to the
achievement of certain combined annual operating income targets for 2013 and 2014. Upon the achievement of
the combined operating income target, one third of the restricted stock units will vest on February 15, 2015, one
third will vest on February 15, 2016 and the remaining one third will vest on February 15, 2017. If certain lower
levels of combined operating income for 2013 and 2014 are achieved, fewer or no restricted stock units will vest
at each vest date, and the remaining restricted stock units will be forfeited.

i Will.™ 

our biggest global caMpaign to date.

our Mission is to make all athletes better through passion, design, 
and the relentless pursuit of innovation…all of which is on display 
in this new global campaign. i WiLL.™ is the confirmation of the 
accomplishment of an athlete’s goals.

the best athletes are innovators of their sport, as well. and 
regardless of talent level, practice, and teamwork, in the end they 
must WiLL it to haPPen to win. under armour can help them 
with the advantages built into every piece of product we make.

building a coMMunity

We launched “What’s 
Beautiful”—our online 
community where female 
athletes document their 
journeys towards accomplishing 
specific goals—to inspire, 
motivate, and celebrate the 
WiLL of the female athlete. it 
turned into much, much more 
than that. “What’s Beautiful” 
has become a place for these 
athletes to share successes, 
failures, encouragement, ideas, 
and pride in what they’ve 
been able to achieve. and 
it’s become an inspiration to 
everyone here at under armour.

the Most decorated 
olyMpian of all tiMe

Winning a total of 22 olympic medals—
18 Gold—Michael Phelps captivated the 
entire world every time he hit the pool. he 
is one of the greatest examples of WiLL 
in the history of sports, as evidenced by 
his amazing, career-capping performance 
at the 2012 olympics. under armour has 
been proud to outfit him in our best training 
apparel and footwear.

Linebacker, legend, and under armour

by winning a super Bowl Championship with 
the Baltimore ravens. ray was a major face

as the star of our “out-ray” ray Challenge 
that appeared on the web and at the nFL 
experience during super Bowl Week.

ThE FIrST-EVEr uA brAND hOuSE

in the heart of our hometown, we’ve 

created a store unlike any athletes have 

seen before, featuring the very best UA 

innovations. The UA Brand house is the 

ultimate expression of the Under Armour 

Brand, giving shoppers access to our full 

line of performance footwear, apparel, and 

accessories, along with expert advice from 

our UA Brand house teammates.

SPEED AND 
INNOVATION

We pride ourselves on 
knowing athletes better 
than anyone else out there, 
which is why we have the 
vision required to imagine, 
innovate, and invent things 
athletes never even knew 
they needed. The innovation 
on this page, however, isn’t 
available just yet. But it’s 
being worked on at Under 
Armour right now.
