Item 7. Exhibits
99.1 | Press Release of the Registrant, dated August 5, 2003. |
Item 12. Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition
The information under this caption is furnished by Tommy Hilfiger Corporation (the Company) in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 33-8216. This information shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
On August 5, 2003, the Company issued a press release describing its financial results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2003. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
The press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. To supplement our fiscal first quarter net income and earnings per share financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, we are presenting non-GAAP measures of net income and earnings per share. These non-GAAP measures are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the following items:
| The effect of a favorable litigation settlement in the quarter ended June 30, 2003; and |
| The cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for goodwill and intangible assets and the one-time, non-cash, deferred tax charge associated with the adoption, as of April 1, 2002, of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. |
The Company believes that these adjusted financial results provide a more meaningful presentation of its ongoing results of operations. In addition, management uses these measures for reviewing the core operating results of the Company and for budget planning purposes. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but are not a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
