Notes to Financial Statements [Abstract]
GENERAL	GENERAL PVH Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) constitute a global apparel company with a brand portfolio that includes TOMMY HILFIGER, Calvin Klein, Warner’s, Olga and True&Co., which are owned, Van Heusen, IZOD, ARROW and Geoffrey Beene, which the Company owned through the second quarter of 2021 and now licenses back for certain product categories, and other licensed brands. The Company designs and markets branded sportswear (casual apparel), jeanswear, performance apparel, intimate apparel, underwear, swimwear, dress shirts, neckwear, handbags, accessories, footwear and other related products and licenses its owned brands globally over a broad array of product categories and for use in numerous discrete jurisdictions. The Company entered into a definitive agreement during the second quarter of 2021 to sell certain of its heritage brands trademarks, including Van Heusen, IZOD, ARROW and Geoffrey Beene, as well as certain related inventories of its Heritage Brands business, to Authentic Brands Group (“ABG”) and other parties (the “Heritage Brands transaction”). The Company completed the sale on the first day of the third quarter of 2021. References to the aforementioned and other brand names are to registered and common law trademarks owned by the Company or licensed to the Company by third parties and are identified by italicizing the brand name. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities that the Company does not control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations include its proportionate share of the net income or loss of these entities. Please see Note 6, “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates,” for further discussion. The Company formed a joint venture in Ethiopia (“PVH Ethiopia”), in which the Company held an initial economic interest of 75%, with its partner’s 25% interest accounted for as a redeemable non-controlling interest (“RNCI”). The Company consolidated PVH Ethiopia in its consolidated financial statements. The Company closed in the fourth quarter of 2021 the manufacturing facility that was PVH Ethiopia’s sole operation. The closure did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Please see Note 5, “Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest,” for further discussion. As of the first day of the second quarter of 2022, the Company is accounting for its operations in Turkey as highly inflationary, as the prior three-year cumulative inflation rate has surpassed 100%. Accordingly, the Company changed the functional currency of its subsidiary in Turkey from the Turkish lira to the euro, which is the functional currency of its parent. The remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in Turkish lira into euro did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations in the second quarter of 2022. As of July 31, 2022, net monetary assets denominated in Turkish lira represented less than 1% of the Company’s total net assets. The Company’s fiscal years are based on the 52-53 week periods ending on the Sunday closest to February 1 and are designated by the calendar year in which the fiscal year commences. References to a year are to the Company’s fiscal year, unless the context requires otherwise. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not contain all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Reference is made to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 30, 2022. The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2022 and August 1, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year due, in part, to the COVID-19 pandemic and seasonal factors. Furthermore, the data contained in these consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are subject to year-end adjustments. However, in the opinion of management, all known adjustments have been made to present fairly the consolidated operating results for the unaudited periods. There is significant uncertainty due to supply chain and logistics disruptions and inflationary pressures globally, the war in Ukraine, the COVID-19 pandemic and foreign currency volatility and their impacts on the Company’s business. If economic conditions were to worsen, the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from operations may be materially and adversely impacted. War in Ukraine As a result of the war in Ukraine, the Company announced in March 2022 that it was temporarily closing stores and pausing commercial activities in Russia and Belarus. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company made the decision to exit from its Russia business, including the closure of its retail stores in Russia and the cessation of its wholesale operations in Russia and Belarus. Additionally, while the Company has no direct operations in Ukraine, virtually all of its wholesale customers and franchisees in Ukraine have closed their stores, which has resulted in a reduction in shipments to these customers and canceled orders. Approximately 2% of the Company’s revenue in 2021 was generated in Russia, Belarus and Ukraine. The war also has led to, and may lead to further, broader macroeconomic implications, including the continued weakening of the euro against the United States dollar, increases in fuel prices and volatility in the financial markets, as well as a decline in consumer spending. The Company assessed the impacts of the war in Ukraine on the estimates and assumptions used in preparing these consolidated financial statements, including, but not limited to, the allowance for credit losses, inventory reserves, and carrying values of long-lived assets. Based on these assessments, the Company recorded pre-tax noncash impairment charges related to long-lived assets of $43.6 million during the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2022. Please see Note 12, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion of the impairments. There is significant uncertainty regarding the extent to which the war and its broader macroeconomic implications, including the potential impacts on the broader European market, will further impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations in 2022. COVID-19 Pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and continues to have, a significant impact on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from operations. During the first quarter of 2021, pandemic-related pressures on the Company’s stores included temporary closures for a significant percentage of its stores in Europe, Canada and Japan. Pressures on its stores continued throughout 2021, with certain stores in Europe, Japan and Australia temporarily closed for varying periods of time in the second quarter, the majority of its stores in Australia closed temporarily in the third quarter, and the temporary closure of certain stores in Europe and China for varying periods of time in the fourth quarter. Further, a significant percentage of the Company’s stores globally were operating on reduced hours during the fourth quarter of 2021 as a result of increased levels of associate absenteeism due to the pandemic. COVID-related pressures have continued into the first half of 2022, although to a much lesser extent than in the prior year period in all regions except China, as strict lockdowns in China resulted in temporary store closures and reductions in consumer traffic and purchasing, as well as impacted certain warehouses, which resulted in the temporary pause of deliveries to the Company’s wholesale customers and from its digital commerce business. In addition, the Company’s North America stores have been, and are expected to continue to be, challenged by the lack of international tourists coming to the United States, although to a lesser extent than in 2021. Stores located in international tourist destinations have historically represented a significant portion of this business. The Company’s brick and mortar wholesale customers and its licensing partners also have experienced significant business disruptions as a result of the pandemic. The Company’s wholesale customers and franchisees globally generally have experienced temporary store closures and operating restrictions and obstacles in the same countries and at the same times as the Company. The pandemic also has impacted, and continues to impact, the Company’s supply chain partners, including third party manufacturers, logistics providers and other vendors, as well as the supply chains of its licensees. These supply chains have experienced, and may continue to experience in the future, disruptions as a result of closed factories or factories operating with a reduced workforce, or other logistics constraints, including vessel, container and other transportation shortages, labor shortages and port congestion due to the impact of the pandemic.
