Net Investment Hedge
The Company has designated approximately ¤300 million of the principal balance of its Euro-denominated 3 3⁄4% senior notes due
October 2021 as a net investment hedge (the “Hedging Instrument”) of the foreign currency exposure of its net investment in certain
Euro-denominated subsidiaries. Foreign currency gains and losses on the Hedging Instrument are included as a component of AOCI. At
December31, 2014, $28.3million of after-tax deferred gains have been recorded in AOCI.
Signicant Accounting Policies and Critical Estimates
The Company’s nancial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America (“GAAP”), which require us to make certain judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
nancial statements and accompanying notes. The following list of critical accounting policies is not intended to be a comprehensive
list of all its accounting policies. The Company’s signicant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to the consolidated
nancial statements. The following represents a summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies, dened as those policies
that the Company believes are the most important to the portrayal of its nancial condition and results of operations, and/or require
management’s signicant judgments and/or estimates. In many cases, the accounting treatment for a particular transaction is
specically directed by GAAP with no need for management’s judgment in their application.
Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Product Returns
The Company recognizes revenues at the time of product shipment or delivery, depending upon when title and risk of loss passes, to
unafliated customers, and when all of the following have occurred: a rm sales agreement is in place, pricing is xed or determinable,
and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized as the net amount estimated to be received after deducting estimated
amounts for product returns, discounts and allowances. The Company estimates future product returns, discounts and allowances
based upon historical return rates and its reasonable judgment.
Revenues from the sale of gift cards are deferred and the revenue is recognized when the gift card is redeemed by the customer or the
likelihood of the gift card being redeemed by the customer is remote (“gift card breakage”). Gift card breakage income is recognized in
proportion to the actual redemption of gift cards based on the Company’s historical redemption patterns.
Income Taxes
The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that the Company believes is more likely
than not to be realized. While the Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning
strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event the Company were to determine that it would not be able
to realize all or part of its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to income
in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax
assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would increase income in the period
such determination was made.
