DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)
(1) General
(a) Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation for each of the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for full fiscal years. Deckers Outdoor Corporation strives to be a premier lifestyle marketer that builds niche brands into global market leaders by designing and marketing innovative, functional and fashion-oriented footwear and accessories, developed for both high performance outdoor activities and everyday casual lifestyle use. The Companys business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of UGG® brand net sales occurring in the third and fourth quarters and the highest percentage of Teva® and Sanuk® brand net sales occurring in the first and second quarters of each year. The other brands do not have a significant seasonal impact on the Company. The Company owns 51% of a joint venture with an affiliate of Stella International Holdings Limited (Stella International) for the primary purpose of opening and operating retail stores for the UGG brand in China. Stella International is also one of the Companys major manufacturers in China.
In January 2010, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities, including reacquisition of its distribution rights, from its Teva brand distributor that sold to retailers in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxemburg (Benelux) as well as France. In September 2010, the Company purchased a portion of a privately held footwear company as an equity method investment. In January 2011, the Company acquired certain assets from its UGG, Teva, and Simple® brands distributor that sold to retailers in the United Kingdom (UK) and from its UGG and Simple brands distributor that sold to retailers in Benelux and France. The distribution rights in these regions reverted back to the Company on December 31, 2010 upon the expiration of the distribution agreements. On May 19, 2011, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Sanuk USA LLC, C&C Partners, Ltd., and the equity holders of both entities (collectively referred to as Sanuk or the Sanuk brand). On July 1, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of the purchased assets and the assumption of the assumed liabilities of the Sanuk brand. Deckers Outdoor Corporations condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of Sanuk beginning July 1, 2011.
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been condensed and do not contain certain information that will be included in the Companys annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to inventory reserves, accounts receivable reserves, returns liabilities, stock compensation, impairment assessments, depreciation and amortization, income tax liabilities and uncertain tax positions, fair value of financial instruments, and fair values of acquired intangibles, assets and liabilities, including estimated contingent consideration payments. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
(2) Stockholders Equity
In June 2009, the Company approved a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $50,000 of the Companys common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The program did not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock. The purchases were funded from available working capital. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had repurchased the full amount authorized under this program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company repurchased approximately 245,000 shares for approximately $20,000, or an average price of $81.22 per share.
On June 22, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a new long-term incentive award under its 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the Level III Awards). These awards will be available for issuance to current and future members of the
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)
Companys management team, including the Companys named executive officers. Each recipient will receive a specified maximum number of restricted stock units (RSUs), each of which will represent the right to receive one share of the Companys common stock. These awards vest subject to certain long-term performance objectives and certain long-term service conditions. The awards will vest on December 31, 2014 only if the Company meets certain revenue targets ranging between $1,850,000 and $2,500,000 and certain diluted earnings per share targets ranging between $7.00 and $9.60 for the year ended December 31, 2014. No vesting of any Level III Award will occur if either of the threshold performance criteria is not met for the year ending December 31, 2014. To the extent financial performance is achieved above the threshold levels, the number of RSUs that will vest will increase up to the maximum number of units granted under the award. Under this new program, the Company granted zero and a maximum amount of 275,000 RSUs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The grant date fair value of these RSUs was $82.09 per share. As of September 30, 2011, the Company did not believe that the achievement of the performance objectives for the Level III Awards was probable, and therefore the Company did not recognize compensation expense for these awards. If the performance objectives become probable, the Company will then begin recording an expense for the Level III Awards and would recognize a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period they become probable.
During the three months ended September 30, 2011, 110,000 stock appreciation rights (SARs) were exercised at a weighted-average exercise price of $26.73, for an aggregate intrinsic value of $8,611. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 290,000 SARs were exercised at a weighted-average exercise price of $26.73, for an aggregate intrinsic value of $19,535.
The following is a reconciliation of the Companys retained earnings:

(4) Net Income per Share Attributable to Deckers Outdoor Corporation Common Stockholders
Basic net income per share represents net income attributable to Deckers Outdoor Corporation divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share represents net income attributable to Deckers Outdoor Corporation divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, including the dilutive impact of potential issuances of common stock. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the difference between the weighted-average number of basic and diluted common shares resulted from the dilutive impact of nonvested stock units (NSUs), RSUs, SARs, and options to purchase common stock. The reconciliations of basic to diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding were as follows:

The share-based awards that were excluded from the dilutive effect were excluded because the necessary conditions had not been satisfied for the shares to be issuable based on the Companys performance through September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
(5) Fair Value Measurements
The fair values of the Companys cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, income taxes receivable, short-term borrowings, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, and income taxes payable approximate the carrying values due to the relatively short maturities of these instruments. The fair values of the Companys long-term liabilities, if recalculated based on current interest rates, would not significantly differ from the recorded amounts. The fair value of the contingent consideration related to our acquisitions and of the Companys derivatives are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company records the assets or liabilities associated with derivative instruments and hedging activities in other current assets or other current liabilities, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Level 2 inputs described below consist of forward spot rates at the end of the reporting period. (See footnote 6, Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts and Hedging, for further information.)
The Company established a nonqualified deferred compensation program effective February 1, 2010 (referred to as the Plan). The Plan permits a select group of management employees, designated by the Plan Committee, to defer earnings to a future date on a nonqualified basis. For each plan year, the Board may, but is not required to, contribute any amount it desires to any participant under the Plan. The Companys contribution will be determined by the Board annually in the fourth quarter. No such contribution has been approved as of September 30, 2011. All amounts deferred under this plan are presented in long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The value of the deferred compensation is recognized based on the fair value of the participants accounts. The Company has established a trust as a reserve for the benefits payable under the Plan.

(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)
The inputs used in measuring fair value are prioritized into the following hierarchy:
· Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
· Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable.
· Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.
The table below summarizes the Companys financial liabilities and assets that are measured on a recurring basis at fair value:

(6) Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts and Hedging
The Company transacts business in various foreign currencies and has international sales and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, subjecting the Company to foreign currency risk. The Company may enter into foreign currency forward or option contracts, generally with maturities of 12 months or less, to reduce the volatility of cash flows primarily related to forecasted revenue denominated in certain foreign currencies. In addition, the Company utilizes foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities, primarily intercompany balances. The Company does not use foreign currency contracts for speculative or trading purposes.
Certain of the Companys foreign currency forward contracts are designated cash flow hedges of forecasted intercompany sales and are subject to foreign currency exposures. These contracts allow the Company to sell Euros and British Pounds in exchange for US dollars at specified contract rates. At September 30, 2011, the outstanding contracts were expected to mature over the next three months. Forward contracts are used to hedge forecasted intercompany sales over specific quarters. Changes in the fair value of these forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (OCI) within stockholders equity, and are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income during the period which approximates the time the corresponding third-party sales occur. The Company may also enter into foreign exchange contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments for financial accounting purposes. Accordingly, any gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the non-designated contracts are reported in income. These contracts are generally entered into to offset the gains and losses on certain intercompany balances until the expected time of repayment. As of September 30, 2011, the Companys total hedging contracts had notional amounts totaling approximately $37,000, held by two counterparties.
The Company has factored into the fair value measurements of its derivatives the nonperformance risk of the Company and the counterparty, and it did not have a material impact on the fair value of the derivatives. The Company assesses hedge effectiveness and measures hedge ineffectiveness at least quarterly. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the ineffective portion relating to these hedges was immaterial and the hedges remained effective as of September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the total amount in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (see note 3) is expected to be reclassified into income within the next six months.

Subsequent to September 30, 2011, the Company entered into several new hedging contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately $66,000.
(7) Credit Agreement
On August 10, 2011, the Company and its subsidiary Tsubo, LLC entered into Amendment Number Two to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Amendment Number Two) with Comerica Bank (Comerica). Amendment Number Two amended the terms of that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, entered into on May 27, 2010, by and among the Company; Tsubo, LLC; and Comerica (the Previous Credit Agreement). Amendment Number Two amended the Previous Credit Agreement by increasing the maximum availability from $20,000 to $60,000 during the period commencing on August 10, 2011 and ending on November 30, 2011 (the Increased Commitment Period). During the Increased Commitment Period, amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement would bear interest at Comericas prime rate, plus 0.25% or, at the Companys option, at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus 1.25%. Amendment Number Two also increased the percentage fee payable for certain letters of credit during the Increased Commitment Period from 0.75% to 1.25%. The Company did not borrow under Amendment Number Two.
On August 30, 2011, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association as the administrative agent, Comerica Bank and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement is a five-year, $200,000 secured revolving credit facility which contains a $50,000 sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $5,000 sublimit for swingline loans and replaces the Previous Credit Agreement and matures on August 30, 2016. Subject to customary conditions and the approval of any lender whose commitment would be increased, the Company has the option to increase the maximum principal amount available under the Credit Agreement by up to an additional $100,000, resulting in a maximum available principal amount of $300,000. None of the lenders under the Credit Agreement has committed at this time or is obligated to provide any such increase in the commitments. At the Companys option, revolving loans issued under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at either adjusted LIBOR for 30 days (0.24% at September 30, 2011) plus 1.25% per annum, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, or at the alternate base rate plus 0.25% per annum, and thereafter the interest rate will fluctuate between adjusted LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum and adjusted LIBOR plus 1.50% per annum (or between the alternate base rate plus 0.25% per annum and the alternate base rate plus 0.50% per annum), based upon the Companys total adjusted leverage ratio at such time. In addition, the Company will initially be required to pay fees of 0.20% per annum on the daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility, and thereafter the fee rate will fluctuate between 0.20% and 0.30% per annum, based upon the Companys total adjusted leverage ratio.
The Companys obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Companys existing and future domestic subsidiaries other than certain immaterial subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries (the Guarantors), and is secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, including all or a portion of the equity interests of certain of the Companys domestic and foreign subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants which include: the asset coverage ratio must be greater than 1.10 to 1.00; and the sum of the consolidated annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and annual rental expense, divided by the sum of the annual interest expense and the annual rental expense must be greater than 2.25 to 1.00; and other customary limitations. The Credit Agreement contains certain other covenants which include: a maximum additional secured debt related to a capital asset not to exceed $20,000, maximum additional unsecured debt not to exceed $200,000; maximum secured debt not related to a capital asset not to exceed $5,000, maximum judgment of $10,000; maximum ERISA event of $10,000 in one year, $20,000 in all years; the Company may not have a change of control; there is no limit on acquisitions, if the total adjusted leverage ratio does not exceed 2.75 and 1.00 and the Company must have a minimum amount of cash and unused credit of $75,000; and there is no restriction on dividends or share repurchases, if the minimum amount of cash and unused credit is $75,000. As of September 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
At September 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $45,000 under the Credit Agreement and outstanding letters of credit of $189. As a result, $154,811 was available under the Credit Agreement at September 30, 2011. Subsequent to September 30, 2011, the Company repaid $20,000 of the outstanding borrowings.
(8) Business Segments, Concentration of Business, and Credit Risk and Significant Customers
The Companys accounting policies of the segments below are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Companys Annual Report, except that the Company does not allocate corporate overhead costs or non-operating income and expenses to segments. The Company evaluates segment performance primarily based on net sales and income or loss from operations. The Companys reportable segments include the strategic business units for the worldwide wholesale operations of the UGG brand, Teva brand, Sanuk brand, and its other brands, its eCommerce business and its retail store business. The wholesale operations of each brand are managed separately because each requires different marketing, research and development, design, sourcing and sales strategies. The eCommerce and retail store segments are managed separately because they are direct to consumer sales, while the brand segments are wholesale sales. The income or loss from operations for each of the segments includes only those costs which are specifically related to each segment, which consist primarily of cost of sales, costs for research and development, design, selling and marketing, depreciation, amortization and the costs of employees and their respective expenses that are directly related to each business segment. The unallocated corporate overhead costs are the shared costs of the organization and include the following: costs of the distribution centers, certain executive and stock compensation, accounting and finance, legal, information technology, human resources and facilities costs, among others. The gross profit derived from the sales to third parties of the eCommerce and retail stores segments is separated into two components: (i) the wholesale profit is included in the related operating income or loss of each wholesale segment, and (ii) the retail profit is included in the operating income of the eCommerce and retail stores segments. In prior periods, the gross profit of the international portion of the eCommerce and retail stores segments included both the wholesale and retail profit. This change in segment reporting only changed the presentation within the below table and did not impact the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements for any periods. The segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 has been adjusted retrospectively to conform to the current period presentation.
The Companys other brands include Simple®, TSUBO®, Ahnu®, and MOZO®. The wholesale operations of the Companys other brands are included as one reportable segment, other wholesale, presented in the figures below. The Sanuk brand operations are included in the Companys segment reporting effective upon the acquisition date of July 1, 2011. Business segment information is summarized as follows:

A portion of the Companys cash and cash equivalents are held as cash in operating accounts that are with third party financial institutions. These balances, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits. While the Company regularly monitors the cash balances in its operating accounts and adjusts the balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in its operating accounts.
The remainder of the Companys cash equivalents is invested in interest bearing funds managed by third party investment management institutions. These investments can include US treasuries and government agencies, money market funds, and municipal bonds, among other investments. Certain of these investments are subject to general credit, liquidity, market, and interest rate risks. Investment risk has been and may further be exacerbated by US mortgage defaults and credit and liquidity issues and the European debt crisis, which have affected various sectors of the financial markets. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had experienced no loss or lack of access to its cash and cash equivalents.
The Company sells its products to customers throughout the US and to foreign customers located in Europe, Canada, Australia, Asia, and Latin America, among other regions. International sales were 37.8% and 26.3% of the Companys total net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. International sales were 36.8% and 32.2% of the Companys total net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, no single foreign country comprised more than 10% of total sales. The Company does not consider international operations a separate segment, as management reviews such operations in the aggregate with the aforementioned segments.
As of September 30, 2011, no single country outside the US held more than 10% of the Companys total long-lived assets. Property and equipment, by major country were as follows:

Management performs regular evaluations concerning the ability of its customers to satisfy their obligations and records a provision for doubtful accounts based upon these evaluations. No single customer accounted for more than 10.0% of the Companys net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. As of September 30, 2011, no single customer represented more than 10.0% of net trade accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had one customer representing 33.2% and another customer representing 10.1% of net trade accounts receivable.
The Companys production is concentrated at a limited number of independent contractor factories in China. The Companys sourcing is concentrated in Australia and China and include a limited number of key sources for the principal raw material for certain UGG products, sheepskin. The Companys operations are subject to the customary risks of doing business abroad, including, but not limited to, currency fluctuations, customs duties and related fees, various import controls and other nontariff barriers, restrictions on the transfer of funds, labor unrest and strikes and, in certain parts of the world, political instability. The supply of sheepskin can be adversely impacted by weather conditions, disease, and harvesting decisions that are completely outside the Companys control. Further, the price of sheepskin is impacted by demand, industry, and competitors.
(9) Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is currently involved in various legal claims arising from the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the disposition of these matters will have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify certain of its licensees, distributors and promotional partners in connection with claims related to the use of the Companys intellectual property. The terms of such agreements range up to
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)
five years initially and generally do not provide for a limitation on the maximum potential future payments. Management believes the likelihood of any payments is remote and would be immaterial. The Company determined the risk was low based on a prior history of insignificant claims. The Company is not currently involved in any indemnification matters in regards to its intellectual property.
The Companys federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2006 through December 31, 2009 are under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In connection with the examination, the Company has received notices of proposed adjustments (NOPAs), which the Company agreed with and recorded in its financial statements. In addition, in March 2011, the Company received a NOPA related to transfer pricing arrangements with the Companys subsidiaries in which adjustments were asserted totaling approximately $55,000 of additional taxable income, representing additional federal taxes and penalties of approximately $27,000, excluding interest. The Company responded to this NOPA indicating that it disagrees with the proposed adjustments and will appeal the NOPA if the Company is unable to reach a resolution at the exam level. The Company does not know the timing of completion of the examination or if the examination will result in a material effect to the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements. It is reasonably possible that the Companys unrecognized tax benefit could change; however, the Company believes its unrecognized tax benefits are adequate.
Although the Company believes its tax estimates are reasonable and prepares its tax filings in accordance with all applicable tax laws, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the Companys estimates or from its historical income tax provisions and accruals. The results of an audit or litigation could have a material effect on operating results or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made. In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties, or interest assessments.
The Company has on-going income tax examinations under various state tax jurisdictions. It is the opinion of management that these audits and inquiries will not have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements.
In September 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with Santa Barbara Realty Development, L.L.C. to purchase approximately fourteen acres of land for its new headquarters facility in Goleta, California. As consideration for the land, the Company will pay an aggregate purchase price of $20,428. The purchase price is subject to a $500 credit if the close of the escrow period occurs before December 31, 2011.
In March 2011, the Company entered into contracts requiring minimum purchase commitments of sheepskin that Deckers affiliates, manufacturers, factories and other agents (each or collectively, a Buyer) must make on or before July 31, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the remaining commitment was approximately $6,000. In the event that a Buyer does not purchase such minimum commitments on or before July 31, 2011, the Company was required to make a deposit for the remaining amounts. Such deposit shall be refundable upon receipt of payment by Buyers for such amounts. The Company made a deposit for the remaining commitment, and as of September 30, 2011, the deposit balance was approximately $10,000. In July 2011, the Company entered into a contract requiring minimum purchase commitments of sheepskin that a Buyer is targeted to make between July 1, 2011 and January 31, 2012. As of September 30, 2011, the remaining commitment was approximately $30,000. The Company made an advance deposit of $20,000 under this contract, all of which was remaining as of September 30, 2011. Subsequent to September 30, 2011, the Company entered into another sheepskin agreement for a total minimum commitment of $158,000 that a Buyer is targeted to make between February 1, 2012 and July 31, 2012. Under this contract, the Company will pay an advance deposit of $50,000 in two payments of $25,000, which the Company expects to pay in November and December 2011, respectively. These advance deposits shall be repaid to the Company as Buyers purchase goods under the terms of these agreements. All of these agreements may result in unconditional purchase obligations if a Buyer does not meet the minimum purchase requirements. In the event that a Buyer does not purchase such minimum commitments, the Company shall be responsible for compliance with any and all minimum purchase commitments under these contracts. The contracts do not permit net settlement. The Company expects sheepskin purchases by third party factories will eventually exceed the contract levels. Therefore, management believes the likelihood of any non-performance payments under these contractual arrangements is remote and would have an immaterial effect on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company determined this based upon its projected sales and inventory purchases.
(10) Business Combination
On May 19, 2011, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement whereby it would acquire substantially all of the assets and assume the related liabilities of Sanuk, an action sport footwear brand rooted in the surf community, known for its original sandals and shoes. On July 1, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of the purchased assets and the
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)
assumption of the assumed liabilities. The total purchase price for the assets related to the Sanuk brand was an initial cash payment of approximately $119,800 subject to certain working capital adjustments, which were preliminarily determined to be approximately $6,800 that were paid at closing. The Company and the sellers of the assets related to the Sanuk brand are in the process of finalizing the balance sheet and working capital as of the closing, which may result in a further adjustment to the preliminary working capital adjustment which was paid at closing. The purchase price also includes additional participation payments (contingent consideration) over the next five years as follows:
· 2011 EBITDA of the Sanuk brand multiplied by ten, less the closing payment, up to maximum of $30,000;
· 51.8% of the gross profit of the Sanuk brand in 2012, defined as total sales less the cost of sales for the business of the sellers;
· 36.0% of gross profit of the Sanuk brand in 2013;
· 8.0% of the product of gross profit of the Sanuk brand in 2015 multiplied by five.
There is no maximum to the contingent consideration payments for 2012, 2013, and 2015.
The Company acquired the Sanuk brand based upon the belief that Sanuk is a profitable, well-run business with a similar corporate culture, and provides substantial growth opportunities, particularly within the action sports market where it has a large and loyal customer base of active outdoor enthusiasts. The Sanuk brand complements the Companys existing brand portfolio with its unique market position through the combination of original and innovative product designs, as well as authentic and irreverent marketing campaigns. The brand assists in balancing the Companys existing seasonality, with its largest revenues being generated in the first half of the year. The Sanuk brand also brings additional distribution channels to the Company, as it sells to hundreds of independent specialty surf and skate shops throughout the US that were not significantly in the Companys existing customer portfolio. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and the Sanuk brand is reported as a new reportable segment.
The Company has included the operating results of the Sanuk brand in its condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition, including worldwide revenue of $15,578 and operating loss of $307 for all distribution channels. This operating loss includes overhead costs that are excluded from worldwide wholesale segment operating income of $1,459 (see note 8). The operating loss also included $2,990 of amortization expense on the acquired Sanuk intangibles and $1,389 of expense related to the change in fair value of the Sanuk contingent consideration due to accretion. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred approximately $4,000 of transaction costs for the Sanuk acquisition which was included in SG&A expense.
The fair value of the acquired intangible assets and contingent consideration is provisional pending the Companys final determination of fair value, including the valuation report for those assets and liabilities from a third party valuation expert assisting the Company. Also, the fair value of the purchase price is provisional pending agreement on the final working capital adjustment. The fair value of the contingent consideration is based on Level 3 inputs, and further changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration will be recorded through operating income (see note 5). The Company allocated the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable intangible and net tangible assets to goodwill. The goodwill arising from the acquisition of the Sanuk brand relates to the projected earnings power over the future. The goodwill is included in the Sanuk wholesale reportable segment and all of it is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The Company used the income approach to value the contingent consideration and identifiable intangible assets. The contingent consideration used a discounted cash flow method with a discount rate of 5.0% in 2011 and 7.0% thereafter. The following table summarizes the methods used under the income approach for the identifiable intangible assets and their corresponding discount rates and royalty rates, where applicable:

The Company entered into a deferred purchase factoring agreement with CIT Commercial Services (CIT) whereby CIT collects the Sanuk accounts receivable at the gross amount of such receivables, less any discounts and allowances. CIT is responsible for the servicing and administration of accounts receivables collected on behalf of the Company and, to the extent that an eligible account is in default, CIT is required to purchase the account from the Company. CIT collects amounts due and remits collected funds, less factoring and various administrative fees. Open receivables collected by CIT totaled approximately $6,100 at September 30, 2011 and are included in accounts receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Collection fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $69.

(12) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU), Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations, an amendment to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations. The amendment specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior reporting period only. The amendment also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2011. The Company adopted this standard in connection with its Sanuk acquisition and included the required disclosures in its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, an amendment to ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, that brings US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) into alignment with International Financial Reporting Standards for the presentation of OCI. Effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012, the option in current GAAP that permits the presentation of OCI in the statement of changes in equity has been eliminated. The provisions of the
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except share quantity and per share data)
update provide that an entity that reports items of OCI has two options: (1) a single statement must present the components of net income, total net income, the components of OCI, total OCI, and total comprehensive income; or (2) a two-statement approach whereby an entity must present the components of net income and total net income in the first statement. That statement must be immediately followed by a financial statement that presents the components of OCI, a total for OCI, and a total for comprehensive income. The adoption of this ASU will only change the presentation of OCI on the Companys consolidated financial statements beginning January 1, 2012.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, which allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Under this amendment, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. This ASU will be effective for the Company January 1, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company is considering early adoption of this update. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its financial statements.

References to Deckers, we, us, our, or similar terms refer to Deckers Outdoor Corporation together with its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all amounts herein are expressed in thousands, except for share quantity, per share data, and selling prices. The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to those statements included elsewhere in this document.
Overview
We are a leading designer, producer, marketer, and brand manager of innovative, high-quality footwear and accessories. We market our products primarily under three proprietary brands:
· UGG®: Premier brand in luxury and comfort footwear and accessories;
· Teva®: High performance multi-sport shoes, rugged outdoor footwear, and sport sandals; and
· Sanuk®: Innovative action sport footwear brand rooted in the surf community.
Our financial condition and results of operations include the operations of Sanuk beginning July 1, 2011, our acquisition date. In addition to our primary brands, our other brands include TSUBO®, a line of high-end casual footwear that incorporates style, function and maximum comfort; Ahnu®, a line of outdoor performance and lifestyle footwear; MOZO®, a line of footwear that combines running shoe technology with work shoe toughness for individuals that spend long hours working on their feet; and Simple®, a line which we plan to cease distribution effective December 31, 2011.
We sell our brands through our quality domestic retailers and international distributors and retailers, as well as directly to our end-user consumers through our eCommerce business and our retail stores. Independent third parties manufacture all of our products. In 2010, we converted our Teva business in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxemburg (Benelux) and France from a distributor model to a wholesale model. In January 2011, we converted from a distributor model to a wholesale model for the UGG, Teva, and Simple brands in the United Kingdom (UK) and Ireland and the UGG and Simple brands in Benelux and France.
Our business has been impacted by several important trends affecting our end markets:
· The prolonged US and global economic conditions have adversely impacted businesses worldwide in general. Some of our customers have been, and more may be, adversely affected, which in turn has, and may continue to, adversely impact our financial results.
· The top grade sheepskin used in certain UGG products is in high demand and limited supply and there have been significant increases in the prices of top grade sheepskin as the demand from competitors for this material has increased.
· The markets for casual, outdoor and athletic footwear have grown significantly during the last decade. We believe this growth is a result of the trend toward casual dress in the workplace, increasingly active outdoor lifestyles and a growing emphasis on comfort.
· Consumers are more often seeking footwear designed to address a broader array of activities with the same quality, comfort and high performance attributes they have come to expect from traditional athletic footwear.
· Our customers have narrowed their footwear product breadth, focusing on brands with a rich heritage and authenticity as market category creators and leaders.
· Consumers have become increasingly focused on luxury and comfort, seeking out products and brands that are fashionable while still comfortable.
· There is an emerging sustainable lifestyle movement happening all around the world. Consumers are demanding that brands and companies become more environmentally responsible.
By emphasizing our brands images and our focus on comfort, performance and authenticity, we believe we can continue to maintain a loyal consumer following that is less susceptible to fluctuations caused by changing fashions and changes in consumer preferences.
Below is an overview of the various components of our business, including some key factors that affect each business and some of our strategies for growing each business.
UGG Brand Overview
The UGG brand has become well-known throughout the US as well as internationally. Over the past several years, our UGG brand has received increased global media exposure including increased print media in ads and cooperative advertising with our customers, which has contributed to broader public awareness of the brand and significantly increased demand for the collection. We believe that the increased global media focus and demand for UGG products were driven by the following:
· consumer brand loyalty, due to the luxury and comfort of UGG footwear;
· continued innovation of new product categories and styles;
· increased marketing in high-end magazines and outdoor advertising;
· targeted marketing at prospective consumers in new catalogs and direct mail pieces;
· successful targeting of high-end distribution;
· expanded product assortment purchases from existing accounts;
· adoption by high-profile celebrities as a favored footwear brand;
· increased media attention that has enabled us to introduce the brand to consumers much faster than we would have otherwise been able to;
· increased exposure to the brand driven by our concept stores which showcase all of our product offerings;
· continued expansion of worldwide retail through new UGG Australia stores;
· continued geographic expansion across the US and internationally; and
· expansion of our shop-in-shop program worldwide.
We believe the luxury and comfort features of UGG products will continue to drive long-term consumer demand. Recognizing that there is a significant fashion element to UGG footwear and that footwear fashions fluctuate, our strategy seeks to prolong the longevity of the brand by offering a broader product line suitable for wear in a variety of climates and occasions and by limiting distribution to selected higher-end retailers. As part of this strategy we have increased our product offering, including a growing spring line, an expanded mens line, and a fall line that consists of a range of luxurious collections for both genders, an expanded kids line, as well as handbags, cold weather accessories, and outerwear. We believe that the evolution of the UGG brand and our strategy
of product diversification also will help decrease our reliance on prime twinface sheepskin, which is in high demand and subject to price volatility.
Teva Brand Overview
Our Teva brand is positioned to be the leading innovative, global, action-outdoor brand, with over 25 years worth of contributions to the outdoor adventure experience. The Teva brand pioneered the water sport sandal category in 1984, and to this day, our brand mission is to inspire spontaneity, camaraderie and adventure on, around, or in water. Leveraging our core performance competencies of traction, hydro and comfort, we are focused on driving growth through innovation in the emerging action-outdoor space through multi-sport, light hiking, freestyle mountain bike riding, action water sports, and other action-outdoor lifestyle products.
Our efforts to expand the Teva brand beyond sandals, while embracing our core water-based competencies, contributed to significant revenue growth in 2010. Throughout 2010 and year-to-date 2011, our broader range of products demonstrated strong retail sell-through across all channels, and we believe that our retail partners have viewed both our product and marketing innovations as relevant and compelling.
We see an opportunity to grow the Teva brand significantly outside of the US. In January 2010, we converted from a distributor model to a wholesale model in the Benelux region and France, enhancing our marketing and distribution capabilities in the outdoor active Benelux market. In January 2011, we converted our Teva brand international business from an independent distributor to a wholesale model in the UK, including Scotland and Ireland, which now affords us the opportunity to better drive our brand building and growth initiatives in this important influential market. Within the US, we see strong growth opportunities within our current core channels of distribution, outdoor specialty and sporting goods, as our product assortment evolves and expands. Also, through effective product and distribution segmentation, we see significant expansion opportunities within the family value, department store, better footwear, and action sports channels. However, we cannot assure investors that these efforts will be successful.
Sanuk Brand Overview
On July 1, 2011 we acquired the Sanuk brand, a dynamic action sport footwear brand rooted in surf, known for its original sandals and shoes and irreverent marketing. The brand has a history of innovation, product invention, foot-friendly comfort and clever branding. Sanuk is currently available in more than 1,700 retailers in 40 countries and at Sanuk.com. The brand enjoys diverse acceptance across multiple channels driven by key action sports retailers as well as outdoor retailers such as REI, EMS, and Bass Pro, specialty retailers including Fred Segal and Nordstrom, and larger national chains including Journeys, Dillards, and The Buckle.
Sanuk products have been twice recognized at the Surf Industry Manufacturers Association (SIMA) Image Awards as the 2007 and 2010 Footwear Product of the Year. The brand is best known for its Sidewalk Surfers®, These are not shoes, theyre sandals®, often referred to as Not-A-Shoe, for the patented sandal construction, which allows the consumers feet to bend and flex in natural comfort. The Sanuk brand uses innovative materials in its footwear such as yoga mats and indoor-outdoor carpet.
We believe that the Sanuk brand is an ideal addition to the Deckers family of brands and all can leverage off each others distribution channels. The Sanuk business is a profitable, well-run business that we believe provides for substantial growth opportunities within the action sports market, as well as other markets and channels in which Deckers is already established. In the 14 years since its inception, the founder and the team have consistently brought creativity, fun, and comfort to the line of sandals and shoes for men, women, and children. The Sanuk brands offerings now include the patented Sidewalk Surfer shoe which effectively introduced the deconstructed footwear movement, the Fraid Not sandal collection, and the Yoga Mat sandal made from yoga mat material, which was cited as the 2010 Product of the Year by SIMA. The Sanuk brand continues to build on its authentic position in the surf and outdoor markets through its relationships with prominent professional athletes, including surfers, bouldering athletes, and rock climbers, known as much for their unique personal styles and charisma as for their specialized talents.
Other Brands Overview
Our other brands consist of TSUBO, Ahnu, MOZO, and Simple. Our other brands are all sold through most of our distribution channels, with the majority through wholesale channels. We plan to cease distribution of the Simple brand effective December 31, 2011.
TSUBO, meaning pressure point in Japanese, is marketed as high-end casual footwear for men and women. The brand is the synthesis of ergonomics and style, with a full line of sport and dress casuals, boots, sandals and heels constructed to provide consumers with contemporary footwear that incorporates style, function, and maximum comfort. We are positioning the TSUBO
brand as the premium footwear solution for people in the city. We are continuing to create products to address consumers unique needs of all-day comfort, innovative style, and superior quality.
The Ahnu brand is an outdoor performance and lifestyle footwear brand for men and women. The name Ahnu is derived from the Celtic goddess representing the balance of well-being and prosperity. The brand focuses primarily on women consumers offering style and comfort for active women on both trails and pavement. The product goal is to achieve uncompromising footwear performance by developing footwear that will provide the appropriate balance of traction, grip, flexibility, cushioning, and durability for a variety of outdoor activities whether on trails, beaches, or sidewalks.
The MOZO brand strives to deliver revolutionary footwear for creative, passionate, and talented professionals that spend long hours working on their feet. Our high-performance footwear is designed to the specifications of these professionals, not just their workplace. In 2011, MOZO introduced The Chef Signature Collection: footwear designed by Marcus Samuelsson, Aaron Sanchez, and Chris Cosentino. This collection has put the MOZO brand in the press for the first time and allowed the brand to open up new distribution opportunities. We have recently expanded our distribution to include large on-line retailers and into the health care worker market.
We expect to leverage our design, marketing and distribution capabilities to grow these brands over the next several years, consistent with our mission to build niche brands into global market leaders. Nevertheless, we cannot assure investors that our efforts will be successful.
eCommerce Overview
Our eCommerce business, which sells all of our brands, allows us to reinforce our relationship with the consumer. eCommerce enables us to meet the growing demand for our products, sell the products at retail prices and provide significant incremental operating income. The eCommerce business provides us an opportunity to communicate to the consumer with a consistent brand message that is in line with our brands promises, drives awareness of key brand initiatives, and offers targeted information to specific consumer segments. In recent years, our eCommerce business has had significant revenue growth, much of which occurred as the UGG brand gained popularity and as consumers continued to increase internet usage for footwear and other purchases.
Managing our eCommerce business requires us to focus on the latest trends and techniques for web design and marketing, to generate internet traffic to our websites, to effectively convert website visits into orders, and to maximize average order sizes. We plan to continue to grow our eCommerce business through improved website features and performance, increased marketing, more international websites, and utilization of mobile and tablet technology. Nevertheless, we cannot assure investors that revenue from our eCommerce business will continue to grow.
Retail Stores Overview
Our retail stores are predominantly UGG Australia concept stores and UGG Australia outlet stores. Our retail stores enable us to directly impact our customers experience, meet the growing demand for these products, sell the products at retail prices and provide us with incremental operating income. In addition, our UGG Australia concept stores allow us to showcase our entire line; whereas, a retailer may not carry the whole line. Through our outlet stores, we sell some of our discontinued styles from prior seasons, plus products made specifically for the outlet stores. We sell Teva products as well as some of our other brands through our UGG Australia outlet stores.
As of September 30, 2011, we had a total of 37 retail stores worldwide. These stores are company-owned and operated and include our China stores, which are owned and operated with our joint venture partner. During the fourth quarter of 2011, we opened or plan to open additional retail stores in Canada, the UK, and Asia. We intend to continue opening more retail stores worldwide beyond 2011.
Seasonality
Our business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of UGG brand net sales occurring in the third and fourth quarters and the highest percentage of Teva and Sanuk brand net sales occurring in the first and second quarters of each year. Our financial results include the Sanuk brand beginning July 1, 2011. Our other brands do not have a significant seasonal impact.

With the large growth in the UGG brand over the past several years, net sales in the last half of the year have exceeded that for the first half of the year. Given our expectations for our brands, we currently expect this trend to continue. Nonetheless, actual results could differ materially depending upon consumer preferences, availability of product, competition and our customers continuing to carry and promote our various product lines, among other risks and uncertainties. See Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors.

Overview. The Sanuk brand operations are included in our results of operations effective upon our acquisition date of July 1, 2011. The increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase in UGG product sales as well as the addition of Sanuk product sales. The increase in income from operations resulted primarily from higher net sales and increased gross margin, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

The increase in net sales was primarily driven by strong sales for the UGG brand and the addition of the Sanuk brand. We experienced an increase in the number of pairs sold primarily through our UGG wholesale segment plus the addition of our Sanuk wholesale segment, partially offset by a decrease in pairs sold in our other brands wholesale segment. This resulted in an increase in the overall volume of footwear sold for all brands of 37.8% to approximately 6.2 million pairs sold for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from 4.5 million pairs for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Our weighted-average wholesale selling price per pair increased to $63.99 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $58.61 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increased average selling price was partially due to higher selling prices resulting from our conversion from a distributor model to a direct wholesale model for our UGG brand in the UK and Benelux and for our Teva brand in the UK. The increased selling prices over the prior year period from this conversion will not recur; however, we expect to maintain the wholesale selling prices in these regions in the future.
Wholesale net sales of our UGG brand increased primarily due to an increase in the overall volume of pairs sold as well as an increase in the average selling price largely related to our conversion to a direct wholesale model in the UK and Benelux. We cannot assure investors that UGG brand sales will continue to grow at their past pace.
Wholesale net sales of our Teva brand increased primarily due to an increase in the average selling price, largely related to our conversion to a direct wholesale model in the UK.
Wholesale net sales of our Sanuk brand, which we acquired in July 2011, was $15,350.
Wholesale net sales of our other brands decreased due to a decrease in pairs sold, partially offset by an increase in the average selling price.
Net sales of our eCommerce business increased due to an increase in the number of pairs sold, partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price.
Net sales of our retail store business, which are primarily UGG brand sales, increased largely due to the addition of 13 new stores opened since September 30, 2010. New stores that were not open during the full three months ended September 30, 2010 contributed approximately $13,000 of retail sales for three months ended September 30, 2011. We do not expect this growth rate to continue because as we increase the number of our stores, each new store will have less proportional impact on our growth rate. For those stores that were open during the full third quarter of 2011 and 2010, same store sales grew by 15.4%. Nevertheless, we cannot assure investors that retail store sales will continue to grow at their recent pace or that revenue from our retail store business will not at some point decline.
International sales, which are included in the segment sales above, for all of our products combined represented 37.8% and 26.3% of worldwide net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in international sales was largely due to increased sales for our UGG wholesale channel, primarily in the European region, related to our conversion to a direct wholesale model.
Gross Profit. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin increased primarily due to the conversion in the UK and Benelux from distributor to wholesale direct models, the addition of the Sanuk brand, and an increased mix of retail sales, which generally carry higher margins. The increase was partially offset by increased cost of goods, including sheepskin and other material costs as well as increased factory costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A). As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased primarily from:
· increased retail costs of approximately $10,000, largely related to 13 new retail stores that were not open as of September 30, 2010;
· increased marketing expenses of approximately $8,000, largely related to our new UGG mens and womens campaigns;
· increased international division expenses of approximately $7,000 in support of our continued international expansion and our distributor conversions to the wholesale model;
· increased divisional brand expenses of approximately $5,000 in support of our continued growth;
· increased depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $5,000, primarily related to the purchase of Sanuk brand intangible assets.
Income from Operations. The gross profit derived from the sales to third parties of the eCommerce and retail store segments is separated into two components: (i) the wholesale profit is included in the related operating income or loss of each wholesale segment, and (ii) the remaining profit is included in the eCommerce and retail stores segments. The following table summarizes operating income (loss) by segment:

Income from operations increased due to the increase in net sales and gross margin, partially offset by the higher SG&A expenses.
The increase in income from operations of UGG brand wholesale was primarily the result of increased sales and a 1.7 percentage point increase in gross margin, partially attributable to our distributor conversions in Europe. The gross margin increase was partially offset by sheepskin and other material and factory cost increases. The increase in income was partially offset by higher marketing and promotional expenses of approximately $6,000, related to our new mens and womens campaigns.
The loss from operations of Teva brand wholesale, compared to income from operations in the prior year period, was primarily due to increased selling, marketing and promotional, and other divisional expenses totaling approximately $1,500, partially offset by the increase in sales.
The income from operations from our Sanuk brand, which we acquired in July 2011, was $1,459.
The loss from operations of our other brands wholesale increased primarily due to a 26.9 percentage point decrease in gross margin largely due to the increased impact of closeout sales. As we are ceasing distribution of the Simple brand, we experienced negative margins on Simple brand closeout sales and also recorded additional inventory write-downs.
The decrease in income from operations of our eCommerce business was primarily due to an increase in marketing and promotional expenses and UK expenses, primarily related to the start-up of our European eCommerce business, totaling approximately $1,000, partially offset by the increase in sales.
The loss from operations of our retail store business, compared to income from operations in the prior year period, was primarily due to approximately $10,000 of higher operating expenses largely related to our new store openings. These results were partially offset by increased sales and a 2.3 percentage point increase in gross margin, primarily due to an increase in international sales which generally carry higher margins.
The increase in unallocated overhead costs resulted most significantly from an increase of approximately $7,000 related to international infrastructure costs primarily to support our conversions from distributor models to direct wholesale models, as well as transaction costs related to our Sanuk acquisition of approximately $3,000 and increased legal expenses of approximately $2,000 primarily related to the protection of our intellectual property including our trademarks.
Other (Income) Expense, Net. Other income, net decreased primarily due to a one-time foreign sales tax exemption in the prior year period.
Income Taxes. Income taxes for the interim periods are computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management and can vary from quarter to quarter. Income tax expense and effective income tax rates were as follows:

The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the increase in our projected annual foreign pre-tax income as a percentage of worldwide pre-tax income, as income generated in the US is taxed at significantly higher rates than most of our foreign jurisdictions. For the full year 2011, we expect to generate approximately 23% of our pre-tax earnings from a country which does not impose a corporate income tax. Unremitted earnings of non-US subsidiaries are expected to be reinvested outside of the US indefinitely. Such earnings would become taxable upon the sale or liquidation of these subsidiaries or upon the remittance of dividends. As of September 30, 2011, we had an immaterial amount of cash and cash equivalents outside the US that would be subject to additional income taxes if it were to be repatriated. We have no plans to repatriate any of our foreign cash. We anticipate our effective tax rate for the full year 2011 to be significantly lower than the full year rate of 35.9% in 2010.
Net Loss Attributable to the Noncontrolling Interest. Net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint venture with Stella International was $139 and $171 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Net Income Attributable to Deckers Outdoor Corporation. Our net income increased as a result of the items discussed above. Our diluted earnings per share increased primarily as a result of the increase in net income.

The increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase in UGG product sales. The increase in income from operations resulted from higher sales and higher gross margin, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.
