FINANCIAL STATEMENT POLICIES FINANCIAL STATEMENT POLICIES
Basis of Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fossil Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”).
The information presented herein includes the thirteen-week period ended October 1, 2022 (“Third Quarter”) as compared to the thirteen-week period ended October 2, 2021 (“Prior Year Quarter”), and the thirty-nine week period ended October 1, 2022 ("Year To Date Period") as compared to the thirty-nine week period ended October 2, 2021 ("Prior Year YTD Period"). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of October 1, 2022, and the results of operations for the Third Quarter, Prior Year Quarter, Year To Date Period and Prior Year YTD Period. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
Effective during fiscal year 2021, the Company made a change to the presentation of product net sales to include third-party smartwatch bands within the smartwatch product type. Third-party smartwatch bands were previously reported within the jewelry product type. The Company's historical disclosures have been recast to be consistent with its current presentation.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022 (the “2021 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the Third Quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full fiscal year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. We base our estimates on the information available at the time and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, including estimates of the impact of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. Actual results could differ from those estimates, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has not made any changes in its significant accounting policies from those disclosed in the 2021 Form 10-K.
Business. The Company is a global design, marketing and distribution company that specializes in consumer fashion accessories. Its principal offerings include an extensive line of men's and women's fashion watches and jewelry, handbags, small leather goods, belts and sunglasses. In the watch and jewelry product categories, the Company has a diverse portfolio of globally recognized owned and licensed brand names under which its products are marketed. The Company's products are distributed globally through various distribution channels, including wholesale in countries where it has a physical presence, direct to the consumer through its retail stores and commercial websites and through third-party distributors in countries where the Company does not maintain a physical presence. The Company's products are offered at varying price points to meet the needs of its customers, whether they are value-conscious or luxury oriented. Based on its extensive range of accessory products, brands, distribution channels and price points, the Company is able to target style-conscious consumers across a wide age spectrum on a global basis.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative ("SG&A"), other long-lived asset impairments and restructuring charges. SG&A expenses include selling and distribution expenses primarily consisting of sales and distribution labor costs, sales distribution center and warehouse facility costs, depreciation expense related to sales distribution and warehouse facilities, the four-wall operating costs of the Company's retail stores, point-of-sale expenses, advertising expenses and art, and design and product development labor costs. SG&A also includes general and administrative expenses primarily consisting of administrative support labor and support costs such as treasury, legal, information services, accounting, internal audit, human resources, executive management costs and costs associated with stock-based compensation. Restructuring charges include costs to reorganize, refine and optimize the Company’s infrastructure and store closures. See Note 16—Restructuring for additional information on the Company’s restructuring plan.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS adjusts basic EPS for the effects of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during each period using the treasury stock method.
The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used in the computations of both basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share data):

At the end of the Third Quarter and Year To Date Period, approximately 1.7 million and 2.2 million weighted average shares issuable under stock-based awards, respectively, were not included in the diluted EPS calculation because they were antidilutive. The total antidilutive weighted average shares included 12,900 and 26,100 weighted average performance-based shares at the end of the Third Quarter and Year To Date Period, respectively. Additionally, 73,500 weighted average performance-based shares were not included in the diluted EPS calculation at the end of the Third Quarter because performance targets were not met.
At the end of each of the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period, approximately 0.3 million weighted average shares issuable under stock-based awards were not included in the diluted EPS calculation because they were antidilutive. The total antidilutive weighted average shares included 12,900 weighted average performance-based shares at the end of each of the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period. Additionally, 48,400 and 30,300 weighted average performance-based shares were not included in the diluted EPS calculation at the end of the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year YTD Period, respectively, because performance targets were not met.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash. Restricted cash included in intangible and other-assets net was comprised primarily of restricted cash balances for appealed tax assessments held in escrow and for pledged collateral to secure bank guarantees for the purpose of obtaining retail space. The following table provides a reconciliation of the cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balances as of October 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021 that are presented in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows (in thousands):

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance ("ASU 2021-10"). The new standard increases transparency of government assistance by focusing on the types of assistance given, an entity's accounting for the assistance, and the effect of the assistance on the entity's financial statements to allow for more comparable information for investors and other financial statement users. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, but early adoption is permitted. This standard will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In October 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations – Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2021-08"). The guidance is intended to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice. The guidance requires an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 as if they had originated the contracts, as opposed to at fair value on the acquisition date. The standard will be effective for business combinations that occur after January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance will be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date. While the impact of this amendment is dependent on the nature of any future transactions, the Company currently does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04") and subsequent guidance that clarified the scope and application of its original guidance. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions to the current guidance on contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The Company will adopt these standards when LIBOR is discontinued and does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to general principles in Income Taxes (Topic 740). It also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 at the beginning of fiscal year 2022, and it did not have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
