ITEM 1. 	BUSINESS	
Unless the context otherwise requires, ‘‘G-III’’, ‘‘us’’, ‘‘we’’ and ‘‘our’’ refer to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that year. For example, our fiscal year ended January 31, 2006 is referred to as ‘‘fiscal 2006’’. Our Internet address is ‘‘www.g-iii.com’’.
All share and per share information in this Annual Report has been adjusted to give retroactive effect to a three-for-two stock split of our Common Stock in March 2006.
Overview
G-III designs, manufactures, imports and markets an extensive range of outerwear and sportswear, including coats, jackets, pants and other sportswear items, as well as women’s suits, and dresses. We sell our products under licensed labels, our own proprietary labels and private retail labels. Our strategy is to deliver superior apparel value to the retail consumer through recognizable brands. We distribute our products through a broad mix of retail partners at a variety of price points.
The sale of licensed products is a key element of our strategy. We have been distributing products under licensed brands for over ten years. We currently have fashion licenses to produce products under the Calvin Klein, ck Calvin Klein, Sean John, Kenneth Cole New York, Reaction Kenneth Cole, Nine West, Cole Haan, Guess?, Jones New York, Jones NY Collection, Cece Cord, IZOD, Ellen Tracy, Tommy Hilfiger, Donald Trump, James Dean and Pacific Trail fashion labels. We also have sports licenses to produce products containing trademarks of the National Football League, National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball, National Hockey League, Louisville Slugger, World Poker Tour and many U.S. colleges and universities.
In July 2005, we acquired the business of J. Percy for Marvin Richards and the operating assets of Winlit Group, Ltd. As a result of the Marvin Richards acquisition, we added licenses for men’s and women’s outerwear under the Calvin Klein brand name. We also acquired Marvin Richards own proprietary label. As a result of acquiring Winlit’s assets, we added licenses for men’s and women’s outerwear under the Guess? brand, leather outerwear under the Tommy Hilfiger brand, as well as licenses for Ellen Tracy and Pacific Trail outerwear. We also acquired Winlit’s own proprietary labels. We added significant executive merchandising, manufacturing and design expertise as a result of these acquisitions.
In addition to the licenses we added as a result of the two acquisitions we made, we also increased our portfolio of licensed fashion product through new license agreements. After our acquisition of Marvin Richards, we expanded our relationship with Calvin Klein by entering into license agreements in September 2005 to manufacture and distribute women’s better suits, and in April 2006 to manufacture and distribute women’s dresses, under the Calvin Klein label. In March 2006, we added licenses with Sean John for women’s sportswear and outerwear. We have manufactured and distributed men’s outerwear under the Sean John label for over five years.
In March 2006, we announced that we had expanded our relationship with Wal-Mart, Inc. to design and produce a new young men’s and boy’s branded urban sportswear line, Exsto. Initially, this line will consist of sportswear, outerwear and hats and is expected to be available in approximately 300 Wal-Mart stores for the upcoming fall season.
Proprietary labels under which we currently sell product include Marvin Richards, G-III, Black Rivet, Siena, Siena Studio, Colebrook, G-III by Carl Banks ,  Winlit ,  NY 10018 ,  LNR  and  La Nouvelle Renaissance .
We operate our business in two segments, licensed apparel and non-licensed apparel. The licensed apparel segment includes sales of apparel brands licensed by us from third parties. The non-licensed apparel segment principally includes sales of apparel under our own brands and private label brands owned by retailers. See Note M to our Consolidated Financial Statements for financial information with respect to these segments.
We are a Delaware corporation that was formed in 1989. We and our predecessors have conducted our business since 1974.

Products - Development and Design
G-III manufactures and markets women’s and men’s apparel at a wide range of retail sales prices. Our product offerings primarily include outerwear, sportswear and women’s suits. We expect to offer women’s dresses beginning with the Holiday 2006 season. We sell products under licensed brand names, our own brand names and private retail labels.
G-III’s licensed apparel consists of both men’s and women’s products. Our strategy is to seek licenses that will enable us to offer a range of products targeting different price points and different tiers of distribution. Women’s licensed apparel includes products that sell at retail prices generally ranging from $100 for sportswear items to $3,500 for outerwear. Men’s licensed apparel consists of garments that generally sell at retail prices ranging from $50 for sportswear items to $2,000 for outerwear.
We work closely with our licensors in creating designs and styles for each licensed brand sold by us. Licensors generally must approve products to be sold under their brand names prior to production by us.
Our in-house designers are responsible for the design and look of our licensed and non-licensed products. We respond to style changes in the apparel industry by maintaining a continuous program of style, color, leather and fabric selection. In designing new products and styles, we attempt to incorporate current trends and consumer preferences. We seek to design products in response to trends in consumer preferences, rather than attempt to create new market trends and styles.
G-III’s proprietary branded apparel also consists of both men’s and women’s products. The  Black Rivet, Colebrook, Marvin Richards, Winlit  and  NY 10018  lines of women’s apparel consist of moderately priced women’s outerwear and sportswear that typically sell at retail prices from $40 for sportswear items to $250 for outerwear. Products in our men’s outerwear lines, primarily consisting of leather outerwear, sold under the  G-III, Colebrook  and  Winlit  labels, typically have retail prices between $40 and $400.  Siena Studio, LNR , and  La Nouvelle Renaissance , our bridge-priced lines of women’s leather and textile apparel, primarily consist of jackets, skirts and related sportswear separates with retail prices from $100 for skirts to $700 for outerwear.
We also work with retail chains, such as Wal-Mart, Sam’s, JC Penneys, and Kohl’s, in developing product lines sold under their own proprietary private labels. We meet frequently with department and specialty chain store buyers who custom order products by color, fabric and style. These buyers may provide samples to us or may select styles already available in our showrooms. We believe we have established a reputation among these buyers for the ability to arrange for the manufacture of apparel on a reliable, expeditious and cost-effective basis.
Our design personnel meet regularly with our sales and merchandising department, as well as with the design and merchandising staffs of our licensors, to review market trends, sales results and the popularity of our latest products. In addition, our representatives regularly attend trade and fashion shows and shop at fashion forward stores in the United States, Europe and the Far East. Their efforts include extensive research using trend and color services. Our designers present sample items to us along with their evaluation of the styles expected to be in demand in the United States. We also seek input from selected customers with respect to product design. We believe that our sensitivity to the needs of retailers, coupled with the flexibility of our production capabilities and our continual monitoring of the retail market, enables us to modify designs and order specifications in a timely fashion.
Licensing
The sale of licensed products is a key element of our strategy and we have continually expanded our offerings of licensed products over the past ten years.
As a result of our two acquisitions in July 2005, we have added licenses for Calvin Klein, Guess?, Tommy Hilfiger, Ellen Tracy and Pacific Trail. We entered into license agreements to manufacture and distribute women’s better suits in September 2005, and women’s dresses in April 2006, under the Calvin Klein label. In March 2006, we entered into license agreements to manufacture and distribute women’s sportswear and outerwear under Sean John labels.

Under our licensing agreements, we are generally required to achieve minimum net sales of licensed products, pay guaranteed minimum royalties, make specified royalty and advertising payments, usually based on a percentage of net sales of licensed products, and receive prior approval of the licensor as to all design and other elements of a garment prior to production, among other requirements. If we do not satisfy any of these requirements, a licensor usually will have the right to terminate our license.
Our ability to extend the current term of a license agreement is usually subject to attaining minimum sales and/or royalty levels and to our compliance with all of the terms of the agreement. Other criteria may also impact our ability to renew a license. As a result, we cannot be sure that we will be able to renew a license agreement when it expires even if we desire to do so.
We continue to seek other opportunities to enter into license agreements in order to expand our product offerings under nationally recognized labels and broaden the markets that we serve. Revenues from the sale of licensed products accounted for 60.8% of our net sales during fiscal 2006 compared to 63.6% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 and 76.3% of our net sales in fiscal 2004. In fiscal 2006, sales of licensed product as a percentage of total net sales decreased primarily because a majority of the revenue from our Marvin Richards division, which we acquired in fiscal 2006, was generated by their own proprietary brands. The significant decrease in fiscal 2005 compared to fiscal 2004 in the percentage of our net sales accounted for by licensed products was the result of our largest customer shifting from orders for licensed product to orders for our proprietary branded product.
Manufacturing and Sourcing
G-III imports its products from independent manufacturers located primarily in China and, to a lesser extent, in South Korea, the Ukraine, Eastern Europe, the Dominican Republic, Macau, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. A small portion of our garments is manufactured in the United States.
In January 2005, we sold our joint venture interest in a factory in Northern China to our joint venture partner. We manufactured approximately 3.2% of our products at this factory in fiscal 2006. We may continue to source comparable unit levels of production through this factory although the percentage of

4

our products from this factory will decrease as a result of our acquisitions in July 2005. As of January 31, 2006, we continued to employ 15 people at this factory to perform quality control and supervisory functions.
In fiscal 2006, we completed the transition from Korea to two representative offices in Qingdao and Hangzhou, China. As a result, we closed our branch office in Korea that had acted as a liaison between us and manufacturers in the Far East. Because a majority of our production is being sourced in China, we believe it is more efficient to provide the liaison functions in closer proximity to where the manufacturing occurs. Our China offices will perform all the functions that had previously been performed in Korea. At January 31, 2006, we had 42 employees in our Qingdao office and 16 employees in our Hangzhou office.
G-III’s headquarters provides these liaison offices with production orders stating the quantity, quality and types of garments to be produced. Liaison office personnel negotiate and place orders with one or more manufacturers. In allocating production among independent suppliers, we consider a number of criteria, including quality, availability of production capacity, pricing and ability to meet changing production requirements.
To facilitate better service for our customers and accommodate the volume of manufacturing in the Far East, we also have an office in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong office supports our production of products on a commission fee basis that we arrange directly for some of our customers. We utilize our China and Hong Kong office employees to monitor production at each manufacturer’s facility to ensure quality control, compliance with our specifications and timely delivery of finished garments to our distribution facilities and customers. At January 31, 2006, the Hong Kong office employed 4 persons.
In connection with the foreign manufacture of our apparel, manufacturers purchase leather, wool and other fabrics under our direction. In addition, they purchase necessary ‘‘submaterials’’ (such as linings, zippers, buttons and trimmings) according to parameters specified by us. Prior to commencing the manufacture of garments, samples of the raw materials or submaterials are sent to us for approval. We regularly inspect and supervise the manufacture of our products in order to ensure timely delivery, maintain quality control and monitor compliance with our manufacturing specifications. We also inspect finished apparel at the factory site.
The manufacture of the substantial majority of our apparel is performed manually. A pattern is used in cutting fabric to panels that are assembled in the factory. All submaterials are also added at this time. Products are inspected by us throughout this process to insure that the design and quality specifications of the order provided by us are being maintained as the garment is assembled. After pressing, cleaning and final inspection, the garment is labeled and ready for shipment. A final random inspection by us occurs when the garments are packed for shipment.
We generally arrange for the production of apparel on a purchase order basis with completed garments manufactured to our design specifications. We assume the risk of loss predominantly on a Freight-On-Board (F.O.B.) basis when goods are delivered to a shipper and are insured against casualty losses arising during shipping.
As is customary in the apparel industry, we have not entered into any long-term contractual arrangements with any contractor or manufacturer. We believe that the production capacity of foreign manufacturers with whom we have developed, or are developing, a relationship is adequate to meet our apparel production requirements for the foreseeable future. We believe that alternative foreign apparel manufacturers are readily available.
A majority of all finished goods manufactured for us is shipped to our New Jersey warehouse and distribution facilities or to designated third party facilities for final inspection and allocation, as well as reshipment to customers. The goods are delivered to our customers and us by independent shippers, choosing the form of shipment (principally ship, truck or air) based upon a customer’s needs, cost and time considerations.
Quotas and Customs
Until January 1, 2005, our textile apparel was subject to quota restrictions. Quota represented the right to export amounts of certain categories of merchandise into a country. On January 1, 2005, pursuant

5

to the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing, quota on textile and apparel products was eliminated for World Trade Organization, or WTO, members, including the United States. China’s accession agreement for membership in the WTO provides that WTO member countries may re-impose quotas on specific categories of products if it is determined that imports from China have surged and are threatening to create a market disruption for these categories of products. In May 2005, the United States imposed unilateral quotas on several product categories, limiting growth in imports of these categories to 7.5% a year. Currently, these limitations do not apply to products imported by us from China. We also do not expect these limitations to have a negative impact on our ability to manufacture and import women’s suits, dresses and sportswear under licenses recently signed by us.
Our arrangements with textile manufacturers and suppliers are subject to requisite customs clearances for textile apparel and the imposition of export duties. United States Customs duties on our textile apparel presently range from duty free to 28%, depending upon the type of fabric used and how the garment is constructed. Countries in which our products are manufactured and sold may, from time to time, impose new duties, tariffs, surcharges or other import controls or restrictions or adjust prevailing duty or tariff levels. We continually monitor duty, tariff and other import restriction developments. We seek to minimize our potential exposure to import related risks through, among other measures, geographical diversification of manufacturing sources and shifts of production among countries and manufacturers.
Raw Materials
We purchase most products manufactured for us on a finished goods basis. Raw materials used in the production of our apparel, such as leather, wool and cotton, are available from numerous sources. The leather apparel industry competes with manufacturers of other leather products for the supply of leather. Leather skins are a byproduct. Accordingly, raw material costs for leather products are impacted by changes in meat consumption worldwide, as well as by the popularity of leather products.
Marketing and Distribution
G-III’s products are sold primarily to department, specialty and mass merchant retail stores in the United States. We sell to approximately 2,500 customers, ranging from national and regional chains of specialty retail and department stores, whose annual purchases from us exceed $1 million, to small specialty stores, whose annual purchases from us are less than $1,000.
Sales to Federated Department Stores accounted for an aggregate of 19.0% of our net sales in fiscal 2006. Federated completed the acquisition of May Department Store Company in August 2005. Sales to Federated in fiscal 2006 include sales to the Macy’s, Lord & Taylor and Marshall Fields retail chains that are now part of the combined Federated and May. Sales to department store divisions of Federated and May constituted an aggregate of 11.3% of our net sales in each of fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004. The increase in the percentage of our net sales to Federated in fiscal 2006 was the result of our two acquisitions in July 2005.
Sales to the Sam’s Club and Wal-Mart divisions of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. accounted for an aggregate of 15.3% of our net sales in fiscal 2004, 15.0% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 and 13.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2006.
The loss of either Federated or Wal-Mart, or a significant reduction in purchases by either customer, could have a material adverse affect on our results of operations. Sales to our ten largest customers accounted for 61% of our net sales in fiscal 2006 compared to 53% of net sales in fiscal 2005.
Almost all of our sales are made in the United States. We also market our products in Canada, Europe and the Far East, which, on a combined basis, accounted for less than 1% of our net sales in fiscal 2006.
G-III’s products are sold primarily through a direct sales force that consisted of 49 employees as of January 31, 2006. Our principal executives are also actively involved in sales of our products. Some of our products are also sold by various retail buying offices and independent sales representatives located

6

throughout the United States. Final authorization of all sales of product is solely through our New York showrooms, enabling our management to deal directly with, and be readily accessible to, major customers, as well as to more effectively control our selling operations.
Brand name products sold by us pursuant to a license agreement are promoted by institutional and product advertisements placed by the licensor. Our license agreements generally provide that we are required to pay the licensor a fee, based on a percentage of net sales of licensed product, to pay for a portion of these advertising costs. We may also be required to spend a specified percentage of net sales of a licensed product on advertising placed by us.
We primarily rely on our reputation and relationships to generate business in our non-licensed segment. We believe we have developed a significant customer following and positive reputation in the industry, as a result of, among other things, standards of quality control, on-time delivery, competitive pricing and willingness and ability to assist customers in their merchandising of our products. In addition, we have, to a limited extent, advertised our own labels and engaged in cooperative advertising programs with retailers. We believe we have developed brand awareness of our own labels primarily through our reputation, consumer acceptance and the fashion press.
Seasonality
Retail sales of outerwear apparel have traditionally been seasonal in nature. Although we sell our apparel products throughout the year, net sales in the months of July through November accounted for approximately 82% of our net sales in fiscal 2006, 74% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 and 75% of our net sales in fiscal 2004. The percentage of our net sales increased during this period in fiscal 2006 because we made two acquisitions in July 2005. The July through November time frame is expected to continue to represent a disproportionate amount of our net sales.
Order Book
A portion of our orders consists of short-term purchase orders from customers who place orders on an as-needed basis. Information relative to open purchase orders at any date may also be materially affected by, among other things, the timing of the initial showing of apparel to the trade, as well as by the timing of recording of orders and shipments. As a result, we do not believe that disclosure of the amount of our unfilled customer orders at any time is meaningful.
Competition
We have numerous competitors with respect to the sale of apparel, including distributors that import apparel from abroad and domestic retailers with established foreign manufacturing capabilities. Many of our competitors have greater financial and marketing resources and greater manufacturing capacity than we do. We also compete with vertically integrated apparel manufacturers that also own retail stores. The general availability of contract manufacturing capacity also allows ease of access by new market entrants. Sales of our products are affected by style, price, quality, brand reputation and general fashion trends.
Trademarks
Several trademarks owned by us have been granted federal trademark protection through registration with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, including  G-III, G-III (& Design), J.L. Colebrook, JLC, Colebrook & Co., Ladies First by G-III/Carl Banks, American Classics By Colebrook, Black Rivet, Black Rivet & Design [lower diamond], Black Rivet & Design [upper diamond], Black Rivet & Design [circles and diamond], ColeB Co. (& Design), Siena Studio, Sports 58 (& Design)  and  Studio 512.  We have applications for several additional marks pending before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, including the trademarks we acquired from Marvin Richards.
We acquired trademarks previously owned by Winlit Group, Ltd., including WINLIT, WINLIT (Stylized), LNR, LNR (Stylized), La Nouvelle Renaissance and NY 10018  upon our acquisition of specified assets of Winlit. We also acquired the  J. Percy Sport, Marvin Richards  and  J. Percy For Marvin Richards  United Kingdom trademarks upon our acquisition of Marvin Richards.

7

We have been granted trademark registration for G-III in Canada, the European Union, France and Mexico, for  J.L. Colebrook  in Canada, France, Great Britain, Mexico and the European Union, and for  J.L.C. (& Design)  and  JLC (& Design)  in Canada. We also have applications for several additional marks in Canada, the European Union, Mexico and Russia.
Although we regard our trademarks as valuable assets and intend to vigorously enforce our trademark rights, we do not believe that any failure to obtain federal trademark registrations for which we have applied would have a material adverse effect on us.
Employees
As of January 31, 2006, we had 510 full-time employees, of whom 90 worked in executive, administrative or clerical capacities, 213 worked in design, merchandising and sourcing, 158 worked in warehouse facilities, and 49 worked in sales. We employ both union and non-union personnel and believe that our relations with our employees are good. We have not experienced any interruption of any of our operations due to a labor disagreement with our employees.
We are a party to an agreement with the Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union, covering approximately 100 of our full-time employees as of January 31, 2006. This agreement, which is currently in effect through October 31, 2006, automatically renews on an annual basis thereafter unless terminated by us or the Union prior to September 1 of that year.
Website Access to Reports
Our internet website is http://www.g-iii.com. We make available free of charge on our website (under the heading ‘‘About G-III’’) our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 1A. 	RISK FACTORS	
We believe that the occurrence of any one or some combination of the following factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risk Factors Relating to Our Operations
The failure to maintain our licensing arrangements could cause us to lose significant revenues and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are dependent on sales of licensed product for a substantial portion of our revenues. In fiscal 2006, revenues from the sale of licensed product accounted for 60.8% of our net sales compared to 63.6% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 and 76.3% of our net sales in fiscal 2004.
We are generally required to achieve specified minimum net sales, pay specified royalties and advertising payments and receive prior approval of the licensor as to all design and other elements of a garment prior to production. License agreements also may restrict our ability to enter into other license agreements for competing products. If we do not satisfy any of these requirements, a licensor usually will have the right to terminate our license. Even if a licensor does not terminate our license, the failure to achieve net sales sufficient to cover our required minimum royalty payments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. If a license contains a renewal provision, there are usually minimum sales and other conditions that must be met in order to be able to renew a license. Even if we comply with all the terms of a licensing agreement, we cannot be sure that we will be able to renew an agreement when it expires even if we desire to do so. The failure to maintain our license agreements could cause us to lose significant revenue and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are currently negotiating renewals of some of our license agreements, including our license agreement with the National Football League. We cannot be sure that we will be able to secure the renewal of this or other license agreements on terms acceptable to us or at all. The loss of the NFL license could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Our success is dependent on the strategies and reputation of our licensors.
Our business strategy is to offer our products on a multiple brand, multiple channel and multiple price point basis. As a part of this strategy, we license the names and brands of numerous recognized companies, designers and celebrities. In entering into these license agreements, we plan our products to be targeted towards different market segments based on consumer demographics, design, suggested pricing and channel of distribution. If any of our licensors decides to ‘‘reposition’’ its products under the brands we license from them, introduce similar products under similar brand names or otherwise change the parameters of design, pricing, distribution, target market or competitive set, we could experience a significant downturn in that brands’ business, adversely affecting our sales and profitability. In addition, as products may be personally associated with designers or celebrities, our sales of those products could be materially and adversely affected if any of those individuals’ images, reputations or popularity were to be negatively impacted.
If we are unable to successfully translate market trends into attractive product offerings, our sales and profitability could suffer.
Our ability to successfully compete depends on a number of factors, including our ability to effectively anticipate, gauge and respond to changing consumer demands and tastes across multiple product lines and tiers of distribution. We are required to translate market trends into attractive product offerings and operate within substantial production and delivery constraints. We cannot be sure we will continue to be successful in this regard. For example, a key part of our success in fiscal 2004 was a result of increased sales of fashion sports apparel. This trend did not continue in fiscal 2005 and, as a result, our results of operations were materially adversely affected. We need to anticipate and respond to changing trends quickly, efficiently and effectively in order to be successful.
Expansion of our product offerings involves significant costs and uncertainty and could adversely affect our results of operations.
An important part of our strategy is to expand the types of products we offer. For example, in the past year we have added licenses for new lines of women’s suits, sportswear and dresses. We have limited prior

10

experience designing, manufacturing and marketing these types of products. We intend to continue to add additional product lines in the future. As is typical with new products, demand and market acceptance for any new products we introduce will be subject to uncertainty. Designing, producing and marketing new products requires substantial expenditures. We cannot be certain that our efforts and expenditures will successfully generate sufficient sales or that sales that are generated will be sufficient to cover our expenditures.
If our customers change their buying patterns, request additional allowances or develop their own private label brands, our sales to these customers could be materially adversely affected.
Our customers’ buying patterns, as well as the need to provide additional allowances to vendors, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Customers’ strategic initiatives, including developing their own private labels brands and reducing the number of vendors they purchase from, could also impact our sales to these customers.
The concentration of our customers could adversely affect our business.
Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 61% of our net sales in fiscal 2006 compared to 53% of our net sales in fiscal 2005, with our two largest customers accounting for 19.0% and 13.2% of our net sales in fiscal 2006. Consolidation in the retail industry, such as the combination of the Federated and May department store chains, has increased the concentration of our sales to our largest customers. We do not have long-term contracts with any customers, and sales to customers generally occur on an order-by-order basis that may be subject to cancellation or rescheduling by the customer. A decision by our major customers to decrease the amount of merchandise purchased from us, to increase the use of their own private label brands or to change the manner of doing business with us, could reduce our revenues and materially adversely affect our results of operations.
If we miscalculate the market for our products, we may end up with significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for others.
We often produce garments to hold in inventory in order to meet our customers’ delivery requirements and to be able to quickly fulfill reorders. If we misjudge the market for our products, we may be faced with significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities with others. In addition, weak sales and resulting markdown requests from customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are dependent upon foreign manufacturers.
We do not own or operate any manufacturing facilities. Almost all of our products are imported from independent foreign manufacturers. The failure of these manufacturers to ship products to us in a timely manner or to meet required quality standards could cause us to miss the delivery date requirements of our customers. The failure to make timely deliveries could cause customers to cancel orders, refuse to accept delivery of products or demand reduced prices, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. We do not have long-term written agreements with any of our manufacturers. As a result, any of these manufacturers may unilaterally terminate its relationship with us at any time.
We are also dependent on these manufacturers for compliance with our policies and the policies of our licensors and customers regarding labor practices employed by factories that manufacture product for us. Any failure by these manufactures to comply with required labor standards or any other divergence in their labor or other practices from those generally considered ethical in the United States, and the potential negative publicity relating to any of these events, could result in a violation by us of our license agreements and harm us and our reputation.
We are subject to the risks of doing business abroad.
Our arrangements with foreign manufacturers are subject to the usual risks of doing business abroad, including currency fluctuations, political or labor instability and potential import restrictions, duties and tariffs. We do not maintain insurance for the potential lost profits due to disruptions of our overseas factories. Because our products are produced abroad, political and/or economic instability in China or elsewhere could cause substantial disruption in the business of our foreign manufacturers. This could

11

materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Heightened terrorism security concerns could subject imported goods to additional, more frequent or more thorough inspections. This could delay deliveries and/or increase costs, which could adversely impact our results of operations. In addition, since we negotiate our purchase orders with foreign manufacturers in United States dollars, the value of the United States dollar against local currencies could impact our cost in dollars of production from these manufacturers. If there is downward pressure on the value of the dollar, our purchase prices for our products could increase. We may not be able to offset an increase in product costs with a price increase to our customers.
Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of materials used in our products could have a material adverse effect on our cost of goods sold and ability to meet customer demands.
Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of the leather, wool and other materials used in our products could have a material adverse effect on our cost of sales or our ability to meet our customers’ demands. We compete with numerous entities for supplies of materials and manufacturing capacity. The supply and price of leather is vulnerable to animal diseases as well as natural disasters that can affect the supply and price of raw leather. For example, in the past the outbreak of mad-cow and foot-and-mouth disease in Europe, and its aftereffects, adversely affected the supply of leather. Any recurrence of these diseases could adversely affect us. The prices for wool and other fabrics used in our products depend largely on the market prices for the raw materials used to produce them, such as raw wool or cotton. We may not be able to pass all or any portion of higher material prices to our customers.
If we lose the services of our key personnel, our business will be harmed.
Our future success depends on Morris Goldfarb and other key personnel. The loss of the services of Mr. Goldfarb and any negative market or industry perception arising from the loss of his services could have a material adverse effect on us and the price of our shares. Our other executive officers have substantial experience and expertise in our business and have made significant contributions to our success. The unexpected loss of services of one or more of these individuals could also adversely affect us.
We have expanded our business through acquisitions that could result in diversion of resources, an inability to integrate acquired operations and extra expenses. This could disrupt our business and adversely affect our financial condition.
Part of our strategy is to pursue acquisitions to expand our business. For example, in July 2005, we acquired Marvin Richards and the operating assets of Winlit. The negotiation of potential acquisitions as well as the integration of acquired businesses could divert our management’s time and resources. Acquired businesses may not be successfully integrated with our operations. We may not realize the intended benefits of any acquisition.
Acquisitions could also result in:
 	 	 	
 	• 	substantial cash expenditures;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	a decrease in our profit margins; and	
 	 	 	
 	• 	amortization of intangibles and potential impairment of goodwill.	
If acquisitions disrupt our operations, our business may suffer.
We may need additional financing to continue to grow.
The continued growth of our business depends on our access to sufficient funds to support our growth. Our primary source of working capital to support our growth is our line of credit and related term loan entered into in July 2005. Our need for working capital and the amount of our debt increased as a result of our two acquisitions in July 2005. In December 2005, we began to make quarterly payments under our term loan of $1,650,000. A final payment under the term loan of $11,850,000 is due in July 2008. Our growth is dependent on our ability to extend and increase the line of credit and may be dependent

12

on our ability to refinance the term loan if we do not generate sufficient cash to make the payments due under the term loan. If we are unable to refinance our debt, we cannot be sure we will be able to secure alternative financing on satisfactory terms or at all.
We are dependent on sales during the July through November period each year for the substantial majority of our net sales and net income.
Retail sales of outerwear apparel have traditionally been seasonal in nature. As a result, we are dependent of our sales from July through November each year for the substantial majority of our net sales and net income. Net sales in the months of July through November accounted for approximately 82% of our net sales in fiscal 2006, 74% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 and 75% of our net sales in fiscal 2004. Any difficulties we may encounter during this period as a result of weather or disruption of manufacturing or transportation of our products will have a magnified effect on our net sales and net income for the year. The July through November time frame is expected to continue to provide a disproportionate amount of our sales for the foreseeable future.
Risk Factors Relating to the Apparel Industry
The competitive nature of the apparel industry may result in lower prices for our products and decreased gross profit margins.
The apparel business is highly competitive. We have numerous competitors with respect to the sale of apparel, including distributors that import apparel from abroad and domestic retailers with established foreign manufacturing capabilities. Many of our competitors have greater financial and marketing resources and greater manufacturing capacity than we do. We also compete with vertically integrated apparel manufacturers that also own retail stores. The general availability of contract manufacturing capacity also allows ease of access by new market entrants. The competitive nature of the apparel industry may result in lower prices for our products and decreased gross profit margins, either of which may materially adversely affect our sales and profitability. Sales of our products are affected by style, price, quality, brand reputation and general fashion trends.
If major department, mass merchant and specialty store chains continue to consolidate, our business could be negatively affected.
We sell our products to major department, mass merchant and specialty store chains. Continued consolidation in the retail industry, such as the recent purchase of May Department Store Company by Federated Department Stores, Inc., could negatively impact our business. Consolidation could reduce the number of our customers and potential customers. With increased consolidation in the retail industry, we are increasingly dependent on retailers whose bargaining strength may increase and share of our business may grow. As a result, we may face greater pressure from these customers to provide more favorable terms. If purchasing decisions become more centralized, the risks from consolidation increases. Customers may also concentrate purchases among a narrowing group of vendors. This could adversely affect our business.
The cyclical nature of the apparel industry and uncertainty over future economic prospects and consumer spending could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations.
The apparel industry is cyclical. Purchases of outerwear, sportswear and other apparel tend to decline during recessionary periods and may decline for a variety of other reasons, including changes in fashion trends and the introduction of new products or pricing changes by our competitors. Uncertainties regarding future economic prospects could affect consumer-spending habits and have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Uncertainty with respect to consumer spending as a result of weak economic conditions has in the past caused our customers to delay the placing of initial orders and to slow the pace of reorders during the seasonal peak of our business. Weak economic conditions have had a material adverse effect on our results of operations at times in the past and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the future as well.
The significant increase in fuel prices could adversely affect our results of operations.
Fuel prices have increased significantly during the past year, most recently as a result of Hurricane Katrina and tensions in the Middle East. Increased gasoline prices could adversely affect consumer

13

spending, including discretionary spending on apparel. In addition, higher fuel prices could cause our operating expenses to increase, especially with respect to warehousing and freight. Any significant decrease in sales or increase in expenses as a result of higher fuel prices could adversely affect our results of operations.
If new legislation restricting the importation or increasing the cost of textiles and apparel produced abroad is enacted, our business could be adversely affected.
Legislation that would restrict the importation or increase the cost of textiles and apparel produced abroad has been periodically introduced in Congress. The enactment of new legislation or international trade regulation, or executive action affecting international textile or trade agreements, could adversely affect our business. International trade agreements that can provide for tariffs and/or quotas can increase the cost and limit the amount of product that can be imported.
The quota system established by the World Trade Organization was eliminated on December 31, 2004. We cannot be certain of the full impact that this elimination will have on international trade in general and the apparel industry in particular. We also cannot be certain of the impact of quota elimination on our business, including increased competition that could result from the importation of an increasing amount of lower priced apparel into the United States. Notwithstanding quota elimination, China’s accession agreement for membership in the WTO provides that WTO member countries, including the United States, may re-impose quotas on specific product. In May 2005, the United States imposed unilateral quotas on several product categories, limiting growth in imports of these categories to 7.5% a year. We are unable to assess the potential for additional action by the United States government with respect to these or other product categories in the event that the quantity of imported apparel significantly disrupts the apparel market in the United States. Additional action by the United States in response to a disruption in its apparel market could limit our ability to import apparel and increase our costs.
Other Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock
Two persons are in a position to substantially control matters requiring a stockholder vote.
As of March 31, 2006, Morris Goldfarb, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and his father, Aron Goldfarb, our founder and former director, beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 47.3% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, if they vote together, they effectively have the ability to control the outcome on all matters requiring stockholder approval including, but not limited to, the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. They also have the ability to control our management and affairs.
The price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly and could continue to fluctuate significantly.
Between February 1, 2004 and March 31, 2006, the market price of our common stock has ranged from a low of $3.79 to a high of $11.95 per share. The market price of our common stock may change significantly in response to various factors and events beyond our control, including:
 	 	 	
 	• 	fluctuations in our quarterly revenues or those of our competitors as a result of seasonality or other factors;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	a shortfall in revenues or net income from that expected by securities analysts and investors;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance or the financial performance of our competitors or companies in our industry generally;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	announcements concerning our competitors;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	changes in product pricing policies by our competitors or our customers;	
 	 	 	
 	• 	general conditions in our industry; and	
 	 	 	
 	• 	general conditions in the securities markets.	
14

The failure to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley Act could harm our results of operations.
We will be required to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 by no later than the end of our fiscal year ending January 31, 2008. If we were to qualify as an accelerated filer as of July 31, 2006, we would need to comply by the end of our current fiscal year ending January 31, 2007. We have begun the process of determining whether our existing internal controls over financial reporting systems are compliant with Section 404. This process may divert internal resources and will take a significant amount of time, effort and expense to complete. If it is determined that we are not in compliance with Section 404, we may be required to implement new internal control procedures and reevaluate our financial reporting. We may experience higher than anticipated operating expenses as well as outside auditor fees during the implementation of these changes and thereafter. Further, we may need to hire additional qualified personnel in order for us to be compliant with Section 404. If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting or financial results and could result in our being unable to obtain an unqualified report on internal controls from our independent auditors.

ITEM 2. 	PROPERTIES	
Our executive offices, sales showrooms and support staff are located at 512 Seventh Avenue, which is one of the leading apparel buildings in New York City. We lease an aggregate of approximately 42,500 square feet in this building through March 31, 2011 at a current aggregate annual rent of approximately $1.2 million. We also lease approximately 4,000 square feet at a current annual rent of $90,000 in an adjoining building at 500 Seventh Avenue for additional design staff.
We assumed leases for an additional 28,000 square feet of office and showroom space at 512 Seventh Avenue in connection with our acquisition of Marvin Richards. The current aggregate annual rent for this space is $500,000. One of these leases expires in January 2008 and the other expires in December 2013. We assumed a lease in New York City for approximately 20,000 square feet of office and showroom space at 463 Seventh Avenue in connection with the Winlit transaction. The current annual rent is approximately $440,000 and the lease expires in December 2011.
Our warehouse and distribution facility, located in Secaucus, New Jersey, contains approximately 110,000 square feet. In February 2005, we extended the lease on this facility through February 2011. As part of the new lease, we leased an additional 95,000 square feet of adjacent space that we have utilized since October 1, 2005. Annual rent for the entire premises is approximately $1.2 million. The additional space is being used for product distribution. We obtained the additional space to reduce our reliance on third party warehouses and accommodate the additional volume we anticipate being generated from our newly signed licenses. In fiscal 2006, we spent approximately $800,000 to renovate the new and existing warehouse space. We assumed the lease of additional warehouse space in Edison, New Jersey in connection with our acquisition of Marvin Richards. The Edison facility contains approximately 89,000 square feet of space. Annual rent for the premises is approximately $426,000. The lease expires in January 2007.
A majority of our finished goods is shipped to our New Jersey distribution facilities for final reshipment to customers. We also use third-party warehouses to accommodate our finished goods storage and reshipment needs.
We also lease office space at 345 West 37th Street in New York City. This space is leased from a corporation owned by Morris Goldfarb and Aron Goldfarb. Aggregate payments under this lease in fiscal 2006 were $227,000. We lease three floors in the building as well as parking spaces and a billboard. Total leased space in this building is approximately 10,100 square feet.

ITEM 7. 	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 	
Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K concerning our business outlook or future economic performance, anticipated revenues, expenses or other financial items, product introductions and plans and objectives related thereto, and statements concerning assumptions made or expectations as to any future events, conditions, performance or other matters, are ‘‘forward-looking statements’’ as that term is defined under the Federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated in such statements. Such risks, uncertainties and factors include, but are not limited to, dependence on licensed product, reliance on foreign manufacturers, risks of doing business abroad, the nature of the apparel industry, including changing consumer demand and tastes, seasonality, customer acceptance of new products, the impact of competitive products and pricing, dependence on existing management, possible disruption from acquisitions and general economic conditions, as well as other risks detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Unless the context otherwise requires, ‘‘G-III’’, ‘‘us’’, ‘‘we’’ and ‘‘our’’ refer to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries. References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that year. For example, our fiscal year ended January 31, 2006 is referred to as ‘‘fiscal 2006’’.
The following presentation of management’s discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, the accompanying notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Report.
Overview
G-III designs, manufactures, imports and markets an extensive range of outerwear and sportswear, including coats, jackets, pants, suits, dresses and other sportswear items under licensed labels, our own proprietary labels and private retail labels. Our products are distributed through a broad mix of retail partners at a variety of price points. Our sales concentration has increased as sales to our ten largest customers increased from 53% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 to 61% of our net sales in fiscal 2006.
We operate in fashion markets that are intensely competitive. Our ability to continuously evaluate and respond to changing consumer demands and tastes, across multiple market segments, distribution channels and geographies, is critical to our success. Although our portfolio of brands is aimed at diversifying our risks in this regard, misjudging shifts in consumer preferences could have a negative effect on our business. Our success in the future will depend on our ability to design products that are accepted in the markets we serve, source the manufacture of our products on a competitive basis, particularly in light of the impact of the recent elimination of quota for apparel products, deliver products in a timely manner and continue to diversify our product portfolio and the markets we serve.
We operate our business in two segments, licensed apparel and non-licensed apparel. The licensed apparel segment includes sales of apparel brands licensed by us from third parties. The non-licensed apparel segment includes sales of apparel under our own brands and private label brands.
The sale of licensed apparel has been a key element of our business strategy for many years. As part of this strategy, we added several new fashion and sports apparel licenses in the past year. We believe that consumers prefer to buy brands they know and we have continually sought licenses that would increase the portfolio of name brands we can offer through different tiers of retail distribution, for a wider array of products and at a variety of price points. The sale of licensed product accounted for 60.8% of our net sales in fiscal 2006 compared to 63.6% of our net sales in fiscal 2005 and 76.3% of our net sales in fiscal 2004.
On July 11, 2005, we acquired the business of Marvin Richards. Marvin Richards has been an outerwear manufacturer and supplier for over 20 years under the Marvin Richards brand name. As a result of this acquisition, we have licenses under the Calvin Klein and ck Calvin Klein brand names. Marvin Richards also conducts a variety of private label programs.
On July 11, 2005, we also acquired specified operating assets of Winlit Group, Ltd. Winlit has been a supplier of outerwear for over 35 years. As a result of acquiring Winlit's assets, we have licenses for

19

men's and women's outerwear under the Guess? brand, leather outerwear under the Tommy Hilfiger brand, and ladies outerwear under licenses with Ellen Tracy and Pacific Trail. Winlit also sells apparel under the Winlit, LNR, and NY 10018 owned names and through private label programs.
The operating results of Marvin Richards and Winlit have been included in our financial statements since July 11, 2005. As a result, our results for fiscal 2006 exclude the seasonal losses that were incurred by the acquired companies in the first half of fiscal 2006. Results for fiscal 2007 will include the full year of operations of the acquired companies, as well as a full year of interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense relating to the acquisitions. As a result, we expect that our seasonal losses in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 will be higher than in fiscal 2006.
These acquisitions are consistent with our strategy to increase the portfolio of brands that we offer through different tiers of retail distribution, for a wider array of products and at a variety of price points. Both transactions are expected to complement our existing group of licensed brands, G-III owned labels and private label programs.
We entered into a new financing agreement on July 11, 2005 to fund the purchase price for these acquisitions and provide additional working capital. See ‘‘Liquidity and Capital Resources’’ for a description of this financing.
We continue to believe that brand owners will look to consolidate the number of licensees they engage to develop product and they will continue to look for licensees with a successful track record of developing brands. We are continually having discussions with licensors regarding new opportunities. It is our objective to continue to expand our product offerings. As a result of our acquisition of Marvin Richards, we have licenses for men’s and women’s outerwear with Calvin Klein. In September 2005, we entered into a license agreement to manufacture and distribute women’s better suits under the Calvin Klein label and in April 2006, we entered into a license agreement to manufacture and distribute women’s dresses under the Calvin Klein label. We began shipping the women’s suit line in January 2006 and expect to begin shipping women's dresses for the holiday 2006 season. We have had a license agreement with Sean John for men’s outerwear for over five years. In March 2006, we added license agreements to manufacture women’s sportswear and outerwear under Sean John labels. We expect to launch the Sean John sportwear line in 2007. We will also be producing a line of urban sportswear for Wal-Mart under their Exsto label with shipments expected to begin during the second quarter of fiscal 2007.
Significant trends that are affecting the apparel industry include the continuing consolidation of retail chains, the desire on the part of retailers to consolidate vendors supplying them, the increased focus by department stores on their own private label brands and a shift in consumer shopping preferences away from traditional department stores to other mid-tier and specialty store venues. There has also been significant downward pressure on average retail prices for many categories of apparel. We have responded to these trends by continuing to focus on selling products with recognized brand equity, by attention to design, quality and value and by improving our sourcing capabilities. We believe that our broad distribution capabilities help us to respond to the various shifts by consumers between distribution channels. We also believe that our operational capabilities will enable us to continue to be a vendor of choice for our retail partners.
Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting policies employed by us, including the use of estimates, are presented in the notes to our consolidated financial statements.
Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and our results of operations, and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates, discussed below, pertain to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, inventories, income taxes, goodwill and intangible assets and stock-based compensation. In determining these estimates, management must use amounts that are based upon its informed

20

judgments and best estimates. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to customer allowances and discounts, product returns, bad debt and inventory reserves, and carrying values of intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize a sale at the time merchandise is shipped to the customer. We also act as an agent in brokering sales between our customers and overseas factories. On these transactions, we recognize commission fee income on the sales that are financed by and shipped directly to our customers. This income is also recorded at the time the merchandise is shipped. Net sales take into account reserves for returns and allowances. We estimate the amount of reserves and allowances based on current and historical information and trends. Sales are reported net of returns, discounts and allowances. Discounts, allowances and estimates of future returns are recognized when the related revenues are recognized.
Accounts Receivable
In the normal course of business, we extend credit to our customers based on pre-defined credit criteria. Accounts receivable, as shown on our consolidated balance sheet, are net of allowances and anticipated discounts. In circumstances where we are aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation (such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or substantial downgrading of credit sources), a specific reserve for bad debts is recorded against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. For all other customers, an allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable at the date of the financial statements, assessments of collectability based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions.
An allowance for discounts is based on reviews of open invoices where concessions have been extended to customers. Costs associated with allowable deductions for customer advertising expenses are charged to advertising expenses in the selling, general and administrative section of our consolidated statements of income. Costs associated with markdowns and other operational charge backs, net of historical recoveries, are included as a reduction of net sales. All of these are part of the allowances included in accounts receivable. We reserve against known charge backs, as well as for an estimate of potential future deductions by customers. These provisions result from seasonal negotiations with our customers as well as historical deduction trends, net of historical recoveries and the evaluation of current market conditions.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market. We continually evaluate the composition of our inventories, assessing slow-turning, ongoing product as well as fashion product from prior seasons. The market value of distressed inventory is based on historical sales trends of our individual product lines, the impact of market trends and economic conditions, and the value of current orders for this type of inventory.
Income Taxes
As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax exposure, together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
On July 11, 2005, we acquired Marvin Richards and specified operating assets of Winlit. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life be tested for impairment at least

21

annually. Goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life are required to be written down when impaired, rather than amortized as previous accounting standards required. Goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life are tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. Fair value is generally determined using discounted cash flows, market multiples and market capitalization. Significant estimates used in the fair value methodologies include estimates of future cash flows, future short-term and long-term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimates of market multiples of the reportable unit. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for our goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life.
The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective and requires significant judgment at many points during the analysis. In estimating the fair value of a reporting unit for the purposes of our annual or periodic analyses, we make estimates and judgments about the future cash flows of that reporting unit. Although our cash flow forecasts are based on assumptions that are consistent with our plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses, there is significant exercise of judgment involved in determining the cash flows attributable to a reporting unit over its estimated remaining useful life. In addition, we make certain judgments about allocating shared assets to the estimated balance sheets of our reporting units. We also consider our and our competitor's market capitalization on the date we perform the analysis. Changes in judgment on these assumptions and estimates could result in a goodwill impairment charge.
We allocated the purchase price of the companies we acquired in fiscal 2006 to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimate fair values. These valuations require management to make significant estimations and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.
Critical estimates in valuing intangible assets include future expected cash flows from license agreements, trade names and customer relations. In addition, other factors considered are the brand awareness and market position of the products sold by the acquired companies and assumptions about the period of time the brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio. Management’s estimates of fair value are based on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable.
If we did not appropriately allocate these components or we incorrectly estimate the useful lives of these components, our computation of depreciation and amortization expense may not appropriately reflect the actual impact of these costs over future periods, which will affect our net income.
Stock-based Compensation
Effective February 1, 2006, we will account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Statements Standards No. 123R-‘‘Share-Based Payments’’. We will utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation at the date of grant. The Black-Scholes model requires subjective assumptions regarding dividend yields, expected volatility, expected life of options and risk-free interest rates. These assumptions reflect management’s best estimates. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the estimate of fair value and the amount of our stock-based compensation expenses. We estimate that that we will recognize approximately $290,000 of stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2007 with respect to stock options that were outstanding as of January 31, 2006. As of February 1, 2006, there was approximately $650,000 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements granted by us. These expenses are expected to be recognized through January 31, 2010.

Results of Operations
Year ended January 31, 2006 (‘‘fiscal 2006’’) compared to year ended January 31, 2005 (‘‘fiscal 2005’’)
Net sales for fiscal 2006 increased by $109.8 million to $324.1 million from $214.3 million in the prior year. Net sales from our new Marvin Richards and Winlit divisions accounted for $99.5 million of this increase. Net sales of licensed apparel increased $60.7 million to $197.0 million from $136.3 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily a result of sales of $47.2 million of licensed apparel by our two new divisions. Sales under new licenses for Kenneth Cole Men’s and IZOD ($11.7 million) and an increase in our sports licensing division ($8.2 million) were partially offset by a decrease in sales in our fashion sports apparel business ($8.8 million). Net sales of non-licensed apparel increased $49.1 million to $127.1 million from $78.0 million in the prior year. This increase was the result of sales of non-licensed apparel of $52.5 million by our new Marvin Richards and Winlit divisions offset, in part by decreases in sales of non-licensed apparel under our pre-existing owned labels and private label programs.
Gross profit increased $32.1 million to $84.8 million, or 26.2% of net sales, for fiscal 2006 from $52.7 million, or 24.6% of net sales, for the prior year. Gross profit from our two new divisions accounted for $28.6 million of this increase. The gross profit percentage of our licensed apparel segment increased to 27.9% ($55.0 million) in fiscal 2006 from 25.1% ($35.1 million) in the prior year. The gross profit percentage in our licensed apparel increased primarily due to the higher gross margins in connection with sales in our new Calvin Klein division and improved gross margins in our Cole Haan and Sean John divisions. In addition, we had commission fee income of $843,000 in our licensed apparel segment. There was no commission fee income in this segment in last year’s comparable period. There is no cost of goods sold component associated with these commission transactions. The gross profit percentage in our non-licensed apparel segment increased to 23.5% ($29.8 million) during fiscal 2006 compared to 22.6% ($17.6 million) in the prior year due to higher gross margins in connection with sales of non-licensed apparel in our two new divisions offset by a decrease in commission fee income. Commission fee income in the non-licensed apparel segment decreased to $1.6 million during fiscal 2006 from $2.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2006 were $67.9 million compared to $48.8 million for the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily as a result of increases in personnel costs ($9.7 million), advertising and promotion ($3.0 million), facility costs ($2.2 million) and depreciation and amortization ($1.8 million). Personnel costs increased due to the additional personnel from the acquired businesses and an increase in management bonuses, as well as a non-cash compensation charge of $1.6 million incurred as a result of the vesting of 141,000 shares of restricted stock granted to key management. Advertising and promotion increased due to contractual advertising under the licenses that we added as a result of the acquisitions and contractual advertising

23

under our existing license agreements. Facility costs increased primarily as a result of the additional rent under leases assumed in connection with the acquisitions. Amortization expense increased as a result of the amortization of the identifiable intangibles of Marvin Richards and Winlit that we acquired.
Interest and finance charges, net were $4.3 million for fiscal 2006 compared to $1.1 million in the prior year. Interest expense increased primarily due to the additional debt incurred to finance the cash portion of the purchase price of our two acquisitions and the write-off of deferred costs associated with our prior credit agreement that was terminated, as well as due to an increase in average interest rates from approximately 4.25% to 7.25%, representing approximately $100,000 of the increase.
We had an income tax expense of $5.5 million for fiscal 2006 compared to $1.3 million in the prior year. Our effective tax rate was 43.8% for fiscal 2006 compared to 64.5% in the prior year. The higher effective tax rate in fiscal 2005 reflected the charge of $882,000 associated with the sale of our joint venture interest in a factory in China for which we did not record a tax benefit.
Year ended January 31, 2005 (‘‘fiscal 2005’’) compared to year ended January 31, 2004 (‘‘fiscal 2004’’)
Net sales for fiscal 2005 were $214.3 million compared to $225.1 million for fiscal 2004. Net sales of licensed apparel decreased $35.4 million to $136.3 million from $171.7 million in fiscal 2004, primarily as a result of decreased sales of our fashion sports apparel ($27.2 million), as well as a change in purchases this year by our largest customer from licensed products to our own proprietary brands (a decrease of $18.4 million). These decreases were partially offset by increased sales of other licensed apparel, primarily Cole Haan and Sean John (aggregate increase of $11.1 million). Net sales of non-licensed apparel increased $24.7 million to $80.0 million from $53.4 million in fiscal 2004. This increase was primarily the result of our largest customer buying outerwear under our own women’s and men’s labels rather than under licensed labels as was done last year (an increase of $16.2 million), as well as increased sales of our Black Rivet brand (an increase of $4.6 million), which was launched in fiscal 2004.
Gross profit was $52.7 million, or 24.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2005 compared to $62.8 million, or 27.9% of net sales, in fiscal 2004. Gross profit of licensed apparel was $35.1 million (25.8% of net sales) compared to $48.8 million (28.4% of net sales) in fiscal 2004. The decrease in gross profit, both in amount and percentage, in the licensed apparel segment for fiscal 2005 was primarily the result of the decline in sales in our higher margin fashion sports apparel business. The gross profit percentage in the prior year was favorably impacted by a $1.2 million decrease in our receivable reserves in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 which predominantly impacted our licensed apparel segment. These reserves were established in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, but were no longer deemed necessary as actual discounts and allowances were less than anticipated.
Gross profit from non-licensed apparel was $17.6 million (22.6% of net sales) for fiscal 2005 compared to $14.0 million (26.3% of net sales) in fiscal 2004. The decrease in gross profit percentage in our non-licensed apparel segment resulted primarily from lower commission-based sales. Commission fee income, which is primarily generated in the non-licensed apparel segment, decreased to $2.2 million during fiscal 2005 from $4.3 million in fiscal 2004. There is no cost of goods sold component associated with these commission transactions.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2005 were $48.8 million compared to $48.0 million in fiscal 2004. This increase resulted primarily from increases in advertising and promotion ($1.4 million), design and product development ($710,000) and personnel costs ($320,000), which include health insurance benefits, offset by a decrease in sales commission expense ($1.7 million). Advertising and promotion expenses increased due to increases in our co-operative advertising, national advertising commitments and purchased advertising. Design and product development expenses increased primarily due to more extensive sample development in our sports and Black Rivet lines and due to the newly launched Cece Cord division. The increase in personnel costs was attributable to additional personnel hired in fiscal 2004 as well as increases in the cost of our health benefits, partially offset by decreased bonus expense compared to fiscal 2004. The decrease in sales commissions resulted from lower sales of fashion sports apparel which are made primarily by an outside sales force.
In fiscal 2005, we recorded a non-cash charge to operations in the amount of $882,000 associated with the sale of our joint venture interest in a factory located in China. We have taken no tax benefit for this charge.

24

Interest expense and financing charges were $1.1 million in fiscal 2005 compared to $1.2 million in fiscal 2004. We had lower borrowings in fiscal 2005 that were offset by higher interest rates.
We had an income tax expense of $1.3 million for fiscal 2005 compared to an income tax expense of $5.2 million in fiscal 2004. Our effective tax rate was 64.5% in fiscal 2005 compared to 38.5% in fiscal 2004. The higher effective tax rate in fiscal 2005 reflected the charge of $882,000 for which we did not record a tax benefit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary cash requirements are to fund our seasonal build up in inventories and accounts receivable, primarily during the second and third fiscal quarters each year. Due to the seasonality or our business, we generally reach our maximum borrowing under our asset-based credit facility during our third fiscal quarter. The primary source to meet our cash requirements are borrowings under this credit facility and cash generated from operations. During fiscal 2006, we also used $23.9 million of cash to fund the purchase of Marvin Richards and specified assets from Winlit. We are required to make principal payments of at least $6.6 million during fiscal 2007 under our new term loan. In addition, we expect to use additional cash during the next three years to pay additional purchase price in connection with our two acquisitions based on the operating results of these two divisions in fiscal 2007, 2008 and 2009.
Financing Agreement
On July 11, 2005, we entered into a financing agreement with The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc., as Agent, for a consortium of banks. The financing agreement is a three year, senior secured credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $195.0 million. The facility consists of a revolving line of credit and a term loan. This financing agreement replaced our prior financing agreement that was a revolving line of credit that provided a maximum line of credit in amounts that ranged from $35 million to $110 million at specific times during the year.
The revolving line of credit provides for a maximum line ranging from $45 million to $165 million at specific times during the year, provided that there are no borrowings outstanding for at least 45 days during the period from December 1 through April 30 each year. We have satisfied this requirement for the most recent period. Amounts available under the line are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the financing agreement. Borrowings under the line of credit bear interest at our option at the prime rate or LIBOR plus 2.25%.
The amount borrowed under the line of credit varies based on our seasonal requirements. The maximum amount outstanding, including open letters of credit, under our line of credit was approximately $74.7 million in fiscal 2004, $64.9 million in fiscal 2005 and $129.6 million in fiscal 2006. As of January 31, 2005 and 2006, there were no direct borrowings and no banker’s acceptances outstanding. Our contingent liability under open letters of credit was approximately $2.9 million at January 31, 2006 compared to approximately $1.8 million as of January 31, 2005.
The term loan in the original principal amount of $30 million is payable over three years with 11 quarterly installments of principal in the amount of $1,650,000. The first quarterly installment was paid on December 31, 2005. The balance of $11,850,000 remaining after the quarterly payments are made is due on maturity of the loan. Mandatory prepayments are required under the term loan commencing with the fiscal year ending January 31, 2007 to the extent of 50% of excess cash flow, as defined. The term loan bears interest, at our option, at prime plus 1% (8.75% at April 1, 2006) or LIBOR plus 3.25% (7.85% at April 1, 2006).
The financing agreement requires us, among other things, to maintain tangible net worth at specified levels, achieve specified earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and maintain minimum fixed charge coverage ratios as defined. It also limits payments for cash dividends and stock redemption to $1.5 million plus an additional amount for stock redemptions based on the proceeds of sales of equity securities. The financing agreement is secured by all of our assets.
PT Balihides, our Indonesian subsidiary, had a separate credit facility with an Indonesian bank. In December 2002, we closed the manufacturing facility operated by this subsidiary. The notes payable under

25

this facility represent borrowings as of January 31, 2006 of approximately $770,000. The loan is collateralized by the property, plant and equipment of this subsidiary. No other G-III entity has guaranteed this loan. We continue to be in discussions with the bank regarding settlement of this debt.
Cash from Operating Activities
At January 31, 2006, we had cash and cash equivalents of $7.0 million. We generated $6.9 million of cash from operating activities in fiscal 2006. Cash was generated primarily from our net income of $7.1 million, non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization ($3.1 million) and for shares of common stock issued as compensation ($1.7 million) and a net decrease in inventory of $12.0 million. The decrease in inventory resulted from the sale of $18.3 million of inventory that we acquired from Marvin Richards and Winlit that was not on our balance sheet at the beginning of the year, offset, in part, by an increase of $6.3 million in our year-end inventory. We realized cash from acquired accounts receivable of $5.5 million during the year. The cash generated from these items was offset primarily by an increase in accounts receivable of $21.0 million and an increase in prepaid expenses of $4.3 million. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily attributable to the increase in net sales in the fourth quarter fiscal 2006 sales compared to the prior year. The increase in prepaid expenses is primarily a result of contractual advance payments made to licensors in accordance with some of our license agreements.
At January 31, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents of $16.6 million. We generated $390,000 of cash from operating activities in fiscal 2005, resulting primarily from a decrease in inventory of $4.3 million and non cash charges for depreciation and amortization expense of $1.3 million and the write-down of $882,000 in our joint venture interest, offset in part by an increase in accounts receivable of $5.5 million. The decrease in inventory in fiscal 2005 resulted primarily from reduced fashion sports apparel inventory. Accounts receivable increased primarily due to increased sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 as compared to fiscal 2004.
In fiscal 2004, we had $12.9 million of cash provided from our operating activities resulting primarily from net income of $8.4 million, a decrease of $2.6 million in inventories, and $1.3 million in non-cash depreciation and amortization expense. The decrease in inventory was attributable to reduced inventory of leather skins associated with lower production of leather apparel.
Cash from Investing Activities
We used $21.8 million of cash for investing activities in fiscal 2006, primarily in connection with the acquisitions of Marvin Richards ($19.9 million) and Winlit ($596,000). We used the balance of $1.3 million in investing activities for capital expenditures, primarily to renovate existing and additional warehouse space that we leased. In fiscal 2005, capital expenditures, which were primarily for leasehold improvements for office and showroom space and computer equipment, amounted to $1.1 million, partially offset by the proceeds of $200,000 from the sale of our joint venture interest, resulting in a net use of $865,000 of cash for investing activities. In fiscal 2004, we used $693,000 of cash in investing activities to pay for capital expenditures.
Cash from Financing Activities
Cash from financing activities provided $8.8 million in fiscal 2006 primarily as a result of $30.0 million of borrowing under the term loan that is part of our new financing agreement, offset in part by the repayment of $12.5 million under our terminated credit facility and repayment of $8.1 million under our new credit facility. We used the proceeds of the term loan primarily to pay the cash portion of the purchase price for the acquisitions of Marvin Richards and Winlit and expenses incurred in connection with the acquisitions and the new financing agreement. As of January 31, 2006, there was $28.4 million outstanding under the term loan.
Cash flows generated by financing activities in fiscal 2005 were primarily from financing obtained under a capital lease arrangement ($600,000) and the exercise of stock options ($523,000).We had $493,000 of cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2004 primarily due to $609,000 received in connection with the exercise of stock options, partially offset by $116,000 in payments of capital lease obligations.

Financing Needs
We believe that our cash on hand and cash generated from operations, together with funds available from our line of credit, are sufficient to meet our expected operating and capital expenditure requirements. We may seek to acquire other businesses in order to expand our product offerings. We may need additional financing in order to complete one or more acquisitions. We cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing, if required, on acceptable terms or at all.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘FASB’’) issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), ‘‘Share-based Payment’’ that will require us to expense costs related to share-based payment transactions with employees. With limited exceptions, SFAS No. 123(R) requires that the fair value of share-based payments to employees be expensed over the period service is received. SFAS No. 123(R) becomes effective for us on February 1, 2006.
We believe the pro forma disclosures in Note A to our consolidated financial statements under the caption ‘‘Stock Based Compensation’’ provide an appropriate short-term indicator of the level of expense that will be recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R). We estimate that we will recognize approximately $290,000 of stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2007 with respect to stock options that were outstanding as of January 31, 2006.
In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, ‘‘Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,’’ which changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principles. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to financial statements for prior periods of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, but does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a transition phase as of the effective date of SFAS No. 154. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 154 to have a material effect on our results of operations or our financial position.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any ‘‘off-balance sheet arrangements’’ as such term is defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K of the SEC rules.

ITEM 7A. 	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK	
Impact of Inflation and Foreign Exchange
Our results of operations for the periods discussed have not been significantly affected by inflation or foreign currency fluctuation. We negotiate our purchase orders with foreign manufacturers in United States dollars. Thus, notwithstanding any fluctuation in foreign currencies, our cost for any purchase order is not subject to change after the time the order is placed. However, if the value of the United States dollar against local currencies were to decrease, manufacturers might increase their United States dollar prices for products.
We believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our costs and net revenues during the past three years.
Interest Rate Exposure
We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates relating primarily to our line of credit. We borrow under the line of credit to support general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and working capital needs. All of our debt is short-term with variable rates. We do not expect changes in interest rates to have a material adverse effect on income or cash flows in fiscal 2007. Based on our average borrowings during fiscal 2006, we estimate that each 100 basis point increase in our borrowing rates would result in additional interest expense to us of approximately $450,000.

ITEM 9. 	CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

ITEM 9A. 	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES	
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them to material information, on a timely basis, required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. During our last fiscal quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Acquisition of Marvin Richards and Winlit
On July 11, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Marvin Richards and specified assets and liabilities of Winlit. The operating results of Marvin Richards and Winlit are included in our results from July 11, 2005 to January 31, 2006. We have applied our disclosure controls and procedures to Marvin Richards and Winlit for that period. Pro forma information is based upon unaudited information of the acquired companies for periods prior to July 11, 2005. We have not evaluated the controls that were in place during these periods. We will continue to closely monitor and refine our internal controls over financial reporting for these new divisions during the transition and integration period. No deficiencies have been identified at this time.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and subsidiaries at January 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004
NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:
 	 	 	
 	1. 	Business Activity and Principles of Consolidation	
As used in these financial statements, the term ‘‘Company’’ or ‘‘G-III’’ refers to G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company designs, manufactures, imports, and markets an extensive range of outerwear and sportswear apparel which is sold to retailers primarily throughout the United States.
The Company consolidates the accounts of all its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
References to fiscal years refer to the year ended or ending on January 31 of that year.
 	 	 	
 	2. 	Cash Equivalents	
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has in excess of $100,000 in one financial institution.
 	 	 	
 	3. 	Revenue Recognition	
Goods are shipped in accordance with specific customer orders. The Company recognizes sales when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to its customer, determined by the Company to be when title to the merchandise passes to its customer. In addition, the Company acts as an agent in brokering sales between its customers and overseas factories. On these transactions, the Company recognizes commission fee income on sales that are financed by and shipped directly to its customers. Title to goods shipped from the Company’s overseas vendors transfers to customers when the goods have been delivered to the customer. The Company recognizes commission income upon the completion of the delivery by its vendor to its customer.
 	 	 	
 	4. 	Returns and Allowances	
We reserve against known chargebacks, as well as for an estimate of potential future deductions and returns by customers. The Company establishes these reserves for returns and allowances based on current and historical information and trends. Allowances are established for trade discounts, markdowns, customer advertising agreements and operational chargebacks, which include shipping violations and freight charges. Estimated costs associated with allowable deductions for customer advertising expenses are reflected as selling, general and administrative expenses. Estimated costs associated with trade discounts and markdowns, net of historical recoveries, operational chargebacks and reserves for returns are reflected as a reduction of net sales. All of these reserves are part of the allowances netted against accounts receivable.
The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the creditworthiness of its customers as well as general economic conditions. Consequently, an adverse change in those factors could affect the Company’s estimate. The Company writes off uncollectible trade receivables once collection efforts have been exhausted and third parties confirm the balance is not recoverable.
 	 	 	
 	5. 	Inventories	
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market.

January 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004
NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 	 	 	
 	6. 	Goodwill and Other Intangibles	
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests, using a discounted cash flow approach. Other intangibles with determinable lives, including license agreements, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets (currently ranging from 3.5 to 15 years). Impairment losses, if any, on intangible assets with finite lives are recorded when indicators of impairment are present and the discounted cash flows estimated to be derived from those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts.
 	 	 	
 	7. 	Depreciation and Amortization	
Depreciation and amortization are provided by straight-line methods in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives.
The following are the estimated lives of the Company’s fixed assets:

 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Machinery and equipment	 	5 to 7 years	
Furniture and fixtures	 	5 years	
Computer equipment and software	 	2 to 5 years	
Building	 	20 years	
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term of the respective leases or the useful lives of the improvements; whichever is shorter.
 	 	 	
 	8. 	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	
In accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (‘‘SFAS’’) No. 144, the Company annually evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets to determine whether changes have occurred that would suggest that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable based on the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of the businesses to which the assets relate. Any impairment loss would be equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeded its fair value.
 	 	 	
 	9. 	Income Taxes	
Deferred income tax assets reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
 	 	 	
 	10. 	Joint Venture	
The Company had a joint venture with an entity principally to operate a factory located in the People’s Republic of China. The Company accounted for the joint venture operations, which were not material, using the equity method of accounting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
January 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004
NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In September 2004, the Company committed to sell its interest in the joint venture and, as a result, recorded a non-cash charge of $882,000 to write down the investment to the estimated proceeds of the sale. In January 2005, the Company completed the sale for $200,000, which represented the adjusted carrying value of the investment at the time.
 	 	 	
 	11. 	Net Income Per Common Share	
Basic net income per share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share amounts have been computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential dilutive common shares, consisting of stock options and unvested restricted stock awards, outstanding during the period. Options to acquire an aggregate of approximately 78,000, 36,000 and 81,000 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted income per common share for the years ended January 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively, as including them would have been anti-dilutive.
All share and per share data have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to a three-for-two split of our Common Stock effected on March 28, 2006.
A reconciliation between basic and diluted income per share is as follows:

 	12. 	Stock-based Compensation	
The Company grants stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees and directors with an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provision of SFAS No. 123, ‘‘Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,’’ which permits the Company to account for stock option grants in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (‘‘APB’’) Opinion No. 25, ‘‘Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.’’ Accordingly, the Company recognizes no compensation expense for the stock option grants.
Pro forma disclosures, as required by SFAS No. 148, ‘‘Accounting for Stock Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure,’’ are computed as if the Company recorded compensation expense based on the fair value for stock-based awards at grant date. The following pro forma information includes the effects of these options:

The effects of applying SFAS No. 123 on this pro forma disclosure may not be indicative of future results.
The weighted average fair value at date of grant for options granted during fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $3.40, $3.28, and $3.33 per option, respectively. The fair value of each option at date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The following weighted average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model for grants in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively:

 	13. 	Costs of goods sold	
Cost of goods sold includes the expenses incurred to acquire, produce and prepare inventory for sale, including product costs, warehouse staff wages, freight in, import costs, packaging materials, the cost of operating our overseas offices and royalty expense. Our gross margins may not be directly comparable to those of our competitors, as income statement classifications of certain expenses may vary by company.
 	 	 	
 	14. 	Shipping and Handling Costs	
Shipping and handling costs consist of warehouse facility costs, third party warehousing, freight out costs, and warehouse supervisory wages and are included in selling, general and administrative expense. Shipping and handling costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $9.1 million, $7.8 million, and $7.9 million for the years ended January 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
 	 	 	
 	15. 	Advertising Costs	
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and includes it in selling, general and administrative expense. Advertising costs charged to expense were $8.9 million, $5.9 million and $4.6 million for the years ended January 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Prepaid advertising, which represents advance payments to licensors for contractual advertising, was $2.2 million and $282,000 at January 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
 	 	 	
 	16. 	Reclassifications	
Certain amounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 31, 2005 and the Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended January 31, 2005 and 2004 have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
 	 	 	
 	17. 	Use of Estimates	
In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 	 	 	
 	18. 	Fair Value of Financial Instruments	
Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities, the fair value of the Company’s debt approximates the carrying value. Furthermore, the carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturity.

 	19. 	Foreign Currency Translation	
The financial statements of subsidiaries outside the United States, other than Indonesia are measured using local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at average monthly rates of exchange. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions of these subsidiaries are included in net earnings.
 	 	 	
 	20. 	Effects of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘FASB’’) issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), ‘‘Share-based Payment’’ that will require the Company to expense costs related to share-based payment transactions with employees. With limited exceptions, SFAS No. 123(R) requires that the fair value of share-based payments to employees be expensed over the period service is received. SFAS No. 123(R) becomes effective for the company on February 1, 2006.
Under the provisions of this statement, the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at the date of adoption. The transition alternatives include retrospective and prospective adoption methods. Under the retrospective method, prior periods may be restated based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either for all periods presented or as of the beginning of the year of adoption. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recognized beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of this statement, for all share-based payments granted after the effective date, and based on the requirements of SFAS 123, for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of this statement that remain unvested on the effective date.
The Company has decided to adopt SFAS 123(R) for its fiscal year beginning February 1, 2006 using the prospective method. The impact of adopting 123(R) cannot be accurately estimated since it will depend on levels of share-based awards granted in the future, the stock price at the date of grant and other factors used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model. However, had the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of this statement would have approximated the impact of the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 as previously disclosed by the Company on a pro forma basis. We estimate that that we will recognize approximately $290,000 of stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2007 with respect to stock options that were outstanding as of January 31, 2006. As of February 1, 2006, there was approximately $650,000 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements

NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections," which changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is effected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, but does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a transition phase as of the effective date of SFAS No. 154. Management believes the adoption of SFAS No. 154 will not have a material effect on our results of operations or our financial position.

NOTE D - ACQUISITIONS AND INTANGIBLES
The Company purchased the operations and certain assets of Gloria Gay Coats, LLC in January 2001. The purchase price was $3.4 million, which includes contingent payments subsequently paid in an aggregate amount of $2.2 million. The purchase price was allocated to a license agreement acquired in connection with this transaction. The license agreement is being amortized using the straight-line method through 2009, the expected life of this license. The net intangible asset remaining as of January 31, 2006 and 2005 was $1.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
On July 11, 2005, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of J. Percy for Marvin Richards, Ltd., all of the membership interests of CK Outerwear, LLC and 50% of the membership interests in Fabio Licensing, LLC, collectively referred to as Marvin Richards, for aggregate consideration consisting of (i) $19.2 million in cash (ii) 699,999 shares of the Company's common stock and (iii) 225,000 shares of the Company's common stock that may vest based on the future market price of the Common Stock through the fiscal year ending January 31, 2009. In August 2005, 37,500 of the unvested shares vested. All shares were valued at the market price on the date issued, except for the restricted stock, which was based on the market value on the date the shares vested. The Company accounts for its interest in the operations of Fabio Licensing, LLC, which is not material, using the equity method of accounting.

NOTE E - NOTES PAYABLE
On July 11, 2005, the Company entered into a financing agreement with The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc., as Agent, for a consortium of banks. The financing agreement is a three year senior collateralized credit facility providing for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $195 million. The facility consists of a revolving line of credit and a term loan.
The revolving line of credit provides for a maximum line ranging from $45 million to $165 million at specific times during the year, provided that there are no borrowings outstanding for at least 45 days during the period from December 1 through April 30 each year. Amounts available under the line are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the financing agreement. Borrowings under the line of credit bear interest at the Company’s option at the prime rate or LIBOR plus 2.25%.
The term loan is in the principal amount of $30 million payable over three years with eleven quarterly installments of principal in the amount of $1,650,000. The first quarterly payment was due and paid on December 31, 2005, and the remaining balance of $11,850,000 is due on July 11, 2008, the maturity date of the loan. Mandatory prepayments are required under the term loan commencing with the fiscal year ending January 31, 2007 to the extent of 50% of excess cash flow, as defined. The term loan bears interest, at the Company’s option, at prime plus 1% or LIBOR plus 3.25%.
The financing agreement requires the Company, among other covenants, to maintain certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, tangible net worth and minimum fixed charge coverage ratios as defined. It also limits payments for cash dividends and stock redemption to $1.5 million plus an additional amount for stock redemptions based on the proceeds of sales of equity securities and limits annual capital expenditures. The financing agreement is collateralized by all of the assets of the Company.
On July 11, 2005, in connection with the financing agreement entered into on that date, the Company repaid in full all borrowings under its previously existing collateralized working capital line of credit (the ‘‘terminated credit facility’’). As a result, that line of credit was terminated and deferred financing costs of $428,000 relating to the terminated credit facility were expensed.
The terminated credit facility was a collateralized working capital line of credit with six banks that provided for an aggregate maximum line of credit in amounts that range from $35 million to $110 million at specific times during the year and maximum direct borrowings ranging from $25 million to $75 million during the year. Amounts available for borrowing were subject to borrowing base formulas and overadvances specified in the agreement. There was no loan balance outstanding at January 31, 2005 under this agreement. The line of credit included a requirement that the Company have no loans and acceptances outstanding for 45 consecutive days each year of the lending agreement. The Company had met this requirement. Borrowings under the agreement bore interest at either the prevailing prime rate or LIBOR plus 225 basis points and were collateralized by the assets of the Company. The loan agreement required the Company, among other covenants, to maintain certain earnings and tangible net worth levels, and limited the payment of cash dividends and stock buybacks to an aggregate of $1.7 million without the consent of our lenders.
Notes payable also includes a foreign note payable ($770,000) by PT Balihides, the Company's inactive Indonesian subsidiary.

The weighted average interest rate for amounts borrowed under the domestic loan agreement was 6.5% and 4.0% for the years ended January 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
At January 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company was contingently liable under letters of credit in the amount of approximately $2.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively.
NOTE F - NON-RECURRING CHARGE
In December 2002, the Company announced its decision to close its manufacturing facility in Indonesia due to rapidly rising costs and losses associated with this facility, as well as the political and economic instability in Indonesia. The unpaid portion of the non-recurring charge associated with the close is included in ‘‘Accrued expenses’’ on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The balance in the reserve at January 31, 2006 and 2005 is $398,000 and $411,000, respectively, and represents accrued expenses, severance and other miscellaneous costs. Based on current estimates, management believes that existing accruals are adequate.

Restricted Stock
In fiscal 2006, the Company granted 211,500 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to key employees. These shares vested during fiscal 2006 based on the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeding a certain target for at least ten days. Compensation expense of $1.6 million was recorded as an expense on the date the restriction lapsed.
Restricted shares granted with the acquisition will be reflected as additional goodwill at the time the restrictions lapse based upon the market price on that day. A total of 187,500 restricted shares are outstanding as of January 31, 2006.
Compensation cost for restricted stock was measured as the excess of the quoted market price of our stock at the date the common stock vested over the amount the employee paid to acquire the stock. The compensation cost was recognized in the period the restrictions lapsed.

Exhibit 10.14
G-III APPAREL GROUP, LTD.
1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS
(As amended through April 20, 2006)
1.    PURPOSE.    The purpose of the 1999 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the ‘‘Plan’’) is to enable G-III Apparel Group, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the ‘‘Company’’), to provide compensatory stock options to members of its Board of Directors (the ‘‘Board’’) who are not employees of, or consultants to, the Company or its affiliates (‘‘Non-Employee Directors’’).
2.    STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.    The Company may sell a total of 225,000 shares of its common stock, $.01 par value (the ‘‘Common Stock’’), pursuant to the Plan. Such shares may be either authorized and unissued or held by the Company in its treasury. Shares of Common Stock covered by the unexercised portion of an option which terminates or expires by its terms, by cancellation or otherwise, will remain issuable under the Plan.
3.    ADMINISTRATION.    Subject to the provisions of the Plan and applicable law, the Board, acting in its sole and absolute discretion, will have full power and authority to interpret, apply and administer the Plan. The decision of the Board as to any disputed question arising in connection with the Plan or any option granted under the Plan will be final and conclusive on all persons.
4.    OPTION GRANTS.    An option to purchase 255 shares of Common Stock will be granted on the date the Plan is adopted by the Board to each Non-Employee Director who is then serving as such, subject to approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders. An option to purchase at least 1,500 shares of Common Stock will be granted to each Non-Employee Director on the day following the date of each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders held after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board and during the term of the Plan. The Board, acting in its discretion, may make a one-time grant of an option to purchase up to 10,000 shares of Common Stock to an individual who first becomes a Non-Employee Director after the date the Plan is adopted and approved by the Company’s stockholders and the Board, acting in its discretion, may increase the number of shares covered by any annual option grant to as many as 3,000 shares.
5.    TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.    Each option granted under the Plan will be evidenced by a written agreement or certificate containing such terms and conditions as the Board may prescribe, subject to the provisions of the Plan.
(a)    Exercise Price.    The exercise price per share of Common Stock covered by an option granted under the Plan will be equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date the option is granted. For purposes of the Plan, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on any date will be the closing sale price per share as published by a national securities exchange on which shares of Common Stock are traded on such date or, if there is no sale of Common Stock on such date, the average of the bid and asked prices on such exchange at the close of trading on such date or, if shares of Common Stock are not listed on a national securities exchange on such date, the average of the bid and asked prices in the over the counter market at the close of trading on such date.
(b)    Option Period Expiration.    Unless sooner terminated or exercised, any option granted under the Plan will expire no more than ten years after the date the option is granted.
(c)    Exercisability of Options.    Unless otherwise specified by the Board at or after the time an option is granted, and unless sooner terminated, an option will become exercisable in accordance with the following schedule based upon the number of full years of the optionee’s continuous service with the Company following the date of grant:

 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Full Years of Continuous Service	 	Incremental
Percentage of
Option
Exercisable	 	Cumulative
Percentage of
Option
Exercisable	
Less than 1	 	 	0	% 	 	 	0	% 	
1	 	 	20	% 	 	 	20	% 	
2	 	 	20	% 	 	 	40	% 	
3	 	 	20	% 	 	 	60	% 	
4	 	 	20	% 	 	 	80	% 	
5 or more	 	 	20	% 	 	 	100	% 	
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
(d)    Exercise of Options.    All or part of the exercisable portion of an option may be exercised at any time during the term of the option, subject to such minimum exercise conditions as the Board may prescribe. An option may be exercised by transmitting to the Company (1) a written notice specifying the number of shares to be purchased, and (2) payment in full of the purchase price together with the amount, if any, deemed necessary by the Company to satisfy its income tax withholding obligation attributable to such exercise (unless other arrangements acceptable to the Company are made for the satisfaction of such withholding obligations).
(e)    Payment of Exercise Price.    The purchase price of Common Stock acquired under the Plan will be payable in cash and/or such other form of payment as may be permitted by the Board, including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock which have been owned by the optionee for at least six months. The Board may permit the payment of all or a portion of the purchase price in installments (together with interest) over a period of not more than five years. If the purchase price is paid with previously-owned shares, then, for the purpose of applying the 225,000 share limit of Section 2, the number of shares sold will be equal to the net increase in the number of shares owned by the optionee as a result of the stock-for-stock exercise.
(f)    Buy Out and Settlement.    At any time, and from time to time, the Company may offer to purchase an outstanding option on such terms and conditions as the Board deems appropriate.
(g)    Rights as a Stockholder.    No shares of Common Stock will be issued in respect of the exercise of an option granted under the Plan until full payment therefor has been made. The holder of an option will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to shares covered by an option until the date a stock certificate for such shares is issued to him or her. Except as otherwise provided herein, no adjustments will be made for dividends or distributions of other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.
(h)    Transferability of Options.    Options granted under the Plan may not be assigned or transferred other than upon the optionee’s death to a beneficiary designated by the optionee in a manner acceptable to the Board or, if no designated beneficiary survives the optionee, pursuant to the optionee’s will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any such option will be exercisable during the optionee’s lifetime only by the optionee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board, acting in its discretion, may permit and prescribe conditions for an inter vivos transfer of an option granted under the Plan.
(i)    Termination of Service.    Unless otherwise determined by the Board either when an option is granted or, if no rights of the optionee are thereby reduced, at any time thereafter, and subject to earlier termination in accordance with the provisions hereof, the following rules apply with regard to exercise of vested options held by an optionee at the termination of the optionee’s service with the Company. If an optionee ceases to perform services for the Company for any reason other than death or disability, then each outstanding vested option granted to him or her under the Plan will terminate on the date three months after the date of such termination of service but in no event after the expiration of the stated term of the option. If an optionee’s service terminates by reason of the optionee’s death or disability (or if the optionee’s service terminates by reason of disability and the optionee dies within one year after such termination of service), then any then outstanding vested option held by the optionee will expire on the first anniversary of the date of such termination of service (or one year after the later death of a disabled optionee) but in no event after the expiration of the stated term of the option.
(j)    Changes in Capital Stock.    In the case of any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction which increases or decreases the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Board will make

an appropriate adjustment to: (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be sold under the Plan; (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by option grants under the Plan (other than the number of shares of Common Stock covered by any one-time option grant that the Board, in its discretion, may make to an individual who first becomes a Non-Employee Director); and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the exercise price per share covered by any outstanding options. In the case of a merger, sale of assets or similar transaction which results in a replacement of the Company’s shares of Common Stock with stock or other securities of another company, the Board may make arrangements to replace any outstanding options with comparable options to purchase the stock or securities of such other company. In the absence of an arrangement for the replacement options, each outstanding option will become exercisable in full and any such option which is not exercised within the time period specified by the Board will thereupon terminate.
(k)    Other Provisions.    The Board may impose such other conditions with respect to the exercise of options, including, without limitation, any conditions relating to the application of federal or state securities laws, as it may deem necessary or advisable.
6.    AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.    The Board may amend or terminate the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan with respect to equity changes, any amendment which would increase the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock as to which options may be granted under the Plan shall be subject to the approval of the stockholders of the Company. No amendment or termination may adversely affect any outstanding option without the written consent of the optionee.
7.    NO RIGHTS CONFERRED.    Nothing contained herein will be deemed to give any individual a right to receive a discretionary award under the Plan or interfere with the right of the Company to terminate his or her service with the Company, as a director or otherwise.
8.    GOVERNING LAW. The Plan and each option granted hereunder will be governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware.
9.    TERM OF THE PLAN.    The Plan is effective on the date of its adoption by the Board, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders at their next annual meeting, and, unless sooner terminated, the Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the effective date. Options outstanding when the Plan terminates will not be affected solely by reason of the termination, provided, however, that the grant of an option under the Plan before the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders will be subject to such approval.
