ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
On August 31, 2011, Genesco Inc. issued a press release announcing its fiscal second quarter earnings and other results of operations. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
On August 31, 2011, Genesco Inc. also posted on its website, www.genesco.com, commentary by its chief financial officer on the quarterly results. A copy of the commentary is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the press release and commentary furnished herewith contain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted selling, general and administrative expense, operating earnings, pretax earnings, earnings from continuing operations and earnings per share from continuing operations, as discussed in the text of the release and commentary and as detailed on the reconciliation schedule attached to the press release and commentary. For consistency and ease of comparison with Fiscal 2012s previously announced earnings expectations and the adjusted results for the prior period announced last year, neither of which reflected the adjustments, the Company believes that disclosure of the non-GAAP expense and earnings measures will be useful to investors. Additionally, the Company believes that presentation of earnings from continuing operations and other financial measures before the compensation expense associated with deferred purchase price payments related to its acquisition of Schuh Group Limited will enable investors to understand the effect attributable to incorporating a continuing employment condition into the obligation to pay the deferred purchase price and that, since the compensation expense is a non-cash charge until the deferred purchase price is actually paid, earnings and other financial measures including such expense may not be fully reflective of the Companys ongoing results or indicative of its prospects.
